communication to Mr.. NJ. ID. Hall.
assistant engineer, who h IS been in
charge of the work which lis being
done on the streets:
Fort WORTH, August 30, 1882.
Mr.. NJ. Q. Hall, Assistant Engirset;
Sill have determined 40 make a
change on the lst of September and
will give personal attention from that
date TO the street work now in progress
and therefore will not require your
services as engineerin chs rye of streets

II. *. SMoor, City Engineer.
To this communication Mr.. Hall

During perid OF ten years | have
not been charged with incompetercy
or dishonesty and feel that this Is an
unjust attack AMI believe that the
council will continue me Ia the place

The matter was brought TO the no
tice of the council ut its special meet
ing yesterday, the proceedings of
which will be found elsewhere. City
Engineer Smoot has not yet made

they have gone on increasing their
stock and adding to their list OF Gus
toners, Till to-day they stand pre-
emineutlv at the head of the retail
trade I'm Fort Worth. The few
friends and acquaintances of Mr..
Combs, the popular business manager
for the establishment, has been sup
plemented 10y n perfect host, and TO
his social aud business qualities the
house IL indebted for its present and
increasing popularity. No man or set
of men ever labored more faithfully to
secure by legitimate means the first
class trade of the city than this firm.
and that their labor has b, en- rewarded
hy the accom- lshment of their pur-
pose is evidenced by the enviable POI
sition they now occupy among the
leading depleis In their line. Their
large and commodious house Is liter
ally crowded with goods, and the pre-
liminarics have just been arranged
for the establishments of Il separate
apai tment for roasting and grinding
coffee. The necessary machinery has
been shipped and In little while this
new feature will be added. Their
house is already the acknowledged
headquarters forcountry produce, fruit,
etc, and throughout the changing
seasons ~ they come and go the finest
can always be had at Combs, Read Il
Cos.
Their line of shelf goods cannot he
surpassed by any house in the state.
All the delicacies that please the taste
or tempt the appetite from the richest
and rarest French bottled goods to the
canned goods OF our own uianuidctur-
ing establishments are constantly car
ried in stock. aud new articles in the
Way of real fine goods are being added
daily. The future ct this house Is in
deed bright ana promising and nothing
but a combination of fortuitous cir.
culnstauces could cheek its progressive
march to yet greater possibilities. A
more deserving set OF men never set
sail on the sea of commercial life, and
as they have already shown their abil-
ity 10 successfully manage their craft
we feel confident that vet greater
measure of success awaits them.
Twelve months ago, with n small
stock in Il small house, but few ac-
qnaintances and no established trade,
and to-doy their stock more than
quadrupied. and perfect host
at regular customers, Is GER
tainly good showing, and speaks
well not only for the business pluck
and enterprise of the firm, but fol
those who appreciate the advantages oil
having in their midst an establish
ment where everything IN the line OF
first-class goods can be obtained at
reasonable figures. We share the pride
of Messrs. Combs, Rcad u Co. in the
success OF of their undertakings, and
heartily wish them the continued
prosperity they so justly merit. If you
contemplate any changes this month
send them your orders.

discharge him, but thought that ii the
city had to pay the salary they could
retain hinsi they so desired.

Hail because he thought IL TO the in
terest of the city 10 do so. but If the

which was neither dark nor fair but
between the two, II shawl was thrown
around her shoulders and her arms
were under it, and I suppose she was
clasping the infant to her bosom. She
was rather delicate looking and Il
rather long nose, nearly straight. or

turned up on one side which had a
flat appearance. She was dressed
plainly; the shawl, us near as can

not shabby but respectable in appear
