Some farmers who possess orchards are
in the habit of shipping apples to Boston
and other distant places during the winter
season. Considerable liability of freezing
is thus incurred and sometimes much val

The corn canning factories do not ap-
pear to flourish in the vicinity OF the cities.
The reason is obvious: Farmers around
the larger towns have ready market
near by for all the produce they can raise,
and thus are unwilling to engage in any
new business like raising sweet corn. un-
less they are to receive largely increased
returns. Farmers in the back towns la

Killed by n Train.

The first accident within the confines
OF the city, on the Missouri Pacific oc-
cured Sunday morning, just after the
first train reached the west side. A col
ored man, commonly known as Dallas
who up till two months ago was employed
at Maj. Wiley Jones stable, tried to
board the train but missed his footing
and was thrown il front of the passing
wheels The result was that one leg
was taken ol'near the knee and he re.
ceived other bruises also. Part of the
bones of the manglcd limb were
left on the track aud made a
sickening sight. The sufierings of the
man after the wheels passed over his
limb were intense, and called forth great
pity for him. He was taken to Waco
hospital where the broken pieces of
bone were taken out and the limb
dressed, but his injuries were of such a
nature that he could not withstand the
the shock, and he died. Yesterday
morning Justice Davis, in accordance
with law, empanneled jury of inquest,
and after hearing the testimony in the
case, rendered verdict in accordance
with the facts given above.

DIR NEW DANGER.
a Practice which Should he
discontinued by Ordinance.

We have before us in the killing of the
negro dallas" by the Missouri Pacific
train warming which should be needed
in time. The practice of jumping on
and off passing trains is one which is
always attended with extreme danger.
Even tram men who have
had years of experience on the
road not unfrequently meet with acct
dents and loss of life, and persons who
are inexperienced take almost as much
risk in fooling with moving trains as
they would by handling gun powder
with cigar III their mouth. Next to the
kerosene can and unloaded pistol rail-
road cars are the most potent agents in
manning and killing people. In proof of
this We have only to look at all the
large railroad centers and see
the number of hospitals that
are full Of men all the time, and the
number of surgeons who are employed to
take care of them. In our own state we
have one at Houston, the greater pro-
portion of whose inmates are railroad
men. The Missouri Pacific has big hos.
pital at Sedalia, and there are half a
dozen III st. Louis. II something is not
done to stop people from taking such
risks we may expect to hear of men
and children being killed here
every week for TRAINS on one or the 9TH
! er of the three different roads now in
operation here, are u motion every hour
in the day In other states railroad
companies are obliged to give notice by
posting up cards or otherwise, that all

tickets and no authority from the COM
pany, will be reported to the civil author

| forbidding all persons under
penalty of heavy fine, to get on any
train, and officers have the au-
| thority to arrest amy one violating the
ordinance Just the same as for any other
/ ofIense If such an ordinance were in
effect here and the cOmpany's and city
officers would work in conjunction, it
would not be long before so many would
get fined that the practice would ceaae
and become less great. If grown persons

a BIG TRANSFER.
n Co.'S. Iron Front by Lew.
inc Bros.

The biggest transfer of its kind that
has occurred here for years was the pur-
chase, yesterday, of Leasing, Solomon &
Cos. iron front, four-story brick build
ing on Austin avenue. The purchase
price was $4,000, kand the Messrs.
Levine Bros. can congratulate
themselves on not only now
having one of the most substantial
but also handsome buildings in Texas
and one well calculated III every way to'
meet the demands of the very finest re-
tail trade. The recent fire deprived LIE
wine Bros OF an opportunity of getting
building large enough to accommo-
date their extensive trade, without build
ing and after negotiations the trade
mentioned was consummated. For
the present Levine Bros. will
occupy the building ON Third street in
which their goods are now stored. Early
i'll March Leasing, Solomon * Co. will
vacate the building and Levine Bros
will move in with spring stock en-
tirely new and fresh from the American
and European markets. The energy and
ability displayed by this firm in the past
years has resulted in making them one
of the strongest in the retail business in
the state and we are glad to see
their prosperity and increase of business.
Leasing, Solomon Il Co., whose fat in
creasing jobbing trade has driven them
to seek new quarters, will, as soon as
they make a selection of site, COM
mence the erection OF a mammoth Job
bling house. 1t will be somewhere in the
neighborhood of the Missouri Pacific
depot. perhaps, situated like Kellum &
Rotan, so they can load and unload
freight on their own platforms. These
are important changes, and
the expenditure of S33, 600 on the part of
one tirm,and the determination to pnt up
a magnificent Wholesale structure on the
part of the other speaks i'll PLAIN terms
the go-ahead business vigor of the men
and the unboupded confidence they have
in the future of Waco. Persons seeking
business locations, wanting to establish
factories or engage III any industry,t those
wishing to locate, buy homes or settle in
] exas should make a note of the evil
dences Of prosperity showing themselves
on every hand in Waco.
