Now that the funeral obsequies are over
attention may be properly directed to the
Michigan sufferers. Perhaps no calamity
that ever came over any part of this land
SO utterly impoverished these on whom it
fell as this which has come to the people
of portion of Michigan. The forest
fires, which devastated the peninsula of
that State, swept over hamlets and towns
with such surprising rapidity, as to utterly
prevent the saving of homes Many per-
sons were burned to death, but those who
escaped lost, in many cases, their all.
Fall and winter are coming without so
much as food or clothing in the possession
of many. Unless generously aided they
must starve. These are facts. Let a
generous sympathy be be accorded them.

Barnutn's Show.

To-day will long be remembered in Dial.
las as that on which Barnum's greatest
show on earth exhibited within its borders.
OF course it will be the delight OF the
younger folks and the older ones as well.
The st. Louis Globe Democrat says:
The Barnum circus has drawn the better
class of people as well as all amusement
lovers, and il is fashionable no less than
popular.
"Darnum has this season packed his pa
vilion with men women and children to
whom the circus hitherto has been mys-
terry and the clown myth. Lawyers, doc
tors, the clergy, trades-people alike throng
to his standard, until wealth and
culture comprise the larger element of
his vast audiences. One familiar with
the public press of the country and watch
ing closely the leading events in the amuse-
ment world cannot fail to be struck with
the marvellous progress Of tho great show
man this season. This state of affairs could
not result from chance alone, but is due to
that keen foresight and steadiast deter
mination to elevate the circus to higher
standard of social amusement. Where pa
rents and guardians have taken their chill
dren to the menagere for study of its
wonders, schools of learning and institu-
tons of charity now realize the importance
of object teaching, until his great collection
is Justly termed the "sChool of the
animal Kingdom" Such a complete revo-
luton has never been known in The amuse-
ment records of our country"

taneous.

All day yesterday there we're large num-
bers of people, men and women, on Main
and Elm streets. They were from neigh
boring farms and towns, and from
more distant cities and Other
states. Main street was especially
alive with streams of people on the pave
ments and with vehicles on the streets In
deed, this latter thoroughfare Is daily be
coming more popular for afternoon drives
and for walks by the fair sex

mers, who was Juggling pair of red-topped
boots across his left shoulder. They Kept
the street, and appeared to avoid the side
walk. Not five minutes later came by the
HERALD office tws-horso wagon, driven
by him who was doubtless the pater-famil-
las, while inside the vehicle were the wife
and seven children. At the same time
across the street were a couple with
six children, munching apples ana
cakes. Who will say that
Texas is not on the advance and that popu-
lation is not increasing? Dallas, too, is
rapidly increasing, and new faces are daily
seen here of strangers who have come to
make this city their home. New houses,
stores and residences are continually being
erected, yet there is not a house to be had
for rent at any figure in the corporate
limits. 1t is the general estimate that be-
tween 5000 and 1900 inhabitants have been
added to our population within the past
twelve months.
