The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1882-11-23
The Growth of Dallas,

1t is the univeral expression of those who
have heretofore visited this city: "Why
never saw a town improve so rapidly"
While this improvement has been rapid, it
is at the same time substantial, both as re-
CARDS business houses and dwellings, and
had it not been for the famine in
material during the past season, and
which continues to exist, the improvement
in the way of buildings would have been
much greater than it is. A large number
of contracts for buildings have been and
are being rescinded by contractors who
are unable to procure the necessary ma
terial for love or money. The weather has
been so bad that manufacturers have
been unable to begin to supply the
demand for brick while other building ma
terial has been more or less scarce. Yet, not
withstanding these drawbacks, no town in
the south or west, in the estimation of the
general traveller, has made such marked,
rapid anu substantial improvements as has
Dallas. Messrs. Morrison & Tourney,
who have devoted the past several
years in getting up directories
OF the larger cities in the south say that the
growth OF Dallas is wonderful, and they
have taken the trouble to give an estimate
OF the buildings erected during the past
two years in tho introductory of the direc.
tory of this city, which is now in press, and
they estimate the cost of the same at ST..
100000, to say nothing of the general i'm
proyements made. The city has reached
that point that its growth is not confined
to any special point, for it is growing all
around.

A Fearful Blow

Eugene Williams, a colored youth, some
l6 years old, was arrested yesterday for
making brutal assault on son of Mr.. A.
Rauman, and committed to prison. Young
Bauman, who is mere boy hardly years
old, was walking down Eryay street when
the negro stepped up behind him and struck
him in the head with stick, telling him to
the. ground. The blow rendered
him insensible. No words had passed be-
tween them, and the conduct of the negro
is unexplsinable, as he has nothing to say,
while the boy is lying seriously i'll, and Or.
