DRY GOODS,

There was slightly improved demand for
certain lines of imported goods but business
generally was rather quiet in this branch OF the
trade, and buyers are operating cautiously be-
cause of the uncertainty In regard to legislation
upon the tariff. Dress goods were In fair do
maAd and plain silks were rather more sought
for. Woolens, linens and white goods were sew
orally in light request but u fair business was
done In Hamburg embroderies, gloves and

DALLAS, Feb. 23-There are n great many
small manufactures In this city which give EN-
plOyment 10 many, and which add greatly IN
the Industries Of the city. There are not less
than 200 women In Dallas to-day who are en-
ployed In the manufacture OF shirts, drawers,
undershiris childrens' sacks and other ARTICLES
Of clothing. These goods are all put up IN dozen
packages md are taken by Wholesale dealers at
remunerauve prices. II is said that the demand
greatly exceeds the production. Thon thereare
spice mills In the city, baking powder manufac'
tories, soda water and other summer drinks put
up, ali of which require light labor performed
by women. he planning mills OF the city III
ford occupation to many men, then are pillow
manufactures, wagon shops. brck establish
menis, lime kilns aud many 0ther Drahohes Of
industry which afford employment to hundreds
OF the laboring classes, and when are not found
in any other city In North Texas. While Dallas
cannot DO classed as manufacturing city to-
day, she Ia making rapid strides In that direc-
ton. All these minor manufacturing enterprises
will grow, and in u few years Will become OK
tensve In every line. Large trees from little
acorns grow, and these small beginnings II per:
severed In, VIII before many yearly cycles roll
around become extensive manufacturing estab-
lishments, lust us many Of our wholesale mer- |
chants have risen from small beginnings All
Of these small undertakings should DO fostered |
and supported by the people Of Dallas, for upon |
their prosperity and success depends much the
importance and growth Of Dallas as the great |
busiress emporium of North Texas; But other
establishments should DO begun |
in this city. A largo boot and
shoe factory would prove remnnerative.
A wholesale nat house, with practical wofkmen
employed such as are found In larger cities,
could only prove largely profitable to one who
has knowledge Of the business. There are
hundreds Of other industrial and trade pursuits
that would be profitable In this city II proper
is given to those who engage In
them. II is to be hoped the day Is not far dis.
liant when the business pursuits In Dallas will
BIO more varied and extensive than they are to-
DAY. and when she will take rank with the most
prosperous city In the south In all those indus
rits which are sure TO lead 10 wealth and great

The Coming Attractions at the Theatre.
The next attraction at the Theatre will
be the famous "Herne's Hearts of OAK"
which will be presented for the last time
in Savannah on Tuesday evening, the 18th
inst. The play has had most remarkable
run. and has hardly of its class rival on
the stage. 1t has been produced success
fully for several years, and after the
present season Will probably be with
drawn. The company playing it is
quoted as a good one, and the Theatre will
doubtless be filed to witness its per-
fOrmance.
The Hearts of Oak Will be followed
BY Haverly's Famous Minstrels, "The
Blackbuds of a Nation,' on the 2lst. The
name of Haverly is a guarantee for the
company, and Hayerly's performances
always have crowded houses in savannah.
The sale of seats for the "Hearts OF
Oak performance Will begin at Davis
