THE THIRD AND FOURTH
WARDS.

The railroad boys in theThird put in
a goodly portion Of Sunday at work.
There were several little personal
encounters in the south end yesterday,
but no damage resulted therefrom.
A large number of the Third and
Fourth warders went out to the
camp-meeting at Cold Springs, yes
terday.
Although the sun was so bright and
hot yesterday afternoon, there were
quite a number to be seen out buggy
riding in the lower end of the city.
The Fort Worth Machine Shops
company have had an immense sign
erected over their building. The
Fourth Ward is strictly ON the boom
aud property is increasing in value
accordingly.
Some Of the Third Warders think
that the manly form and handsome
face of Mr.. Ed. Maddox would appear
to advantage at the council board as
one of the city dads. Edward is young
but he is a whole team by himself and
the way he can run is astonishing.
DIR. w. II. Moore has left the city
for a tour Of the southern portion of
the state. During bis absence he will
visit all the principal cities in southern
Texas. DR.. Moore is one of Fort
Worth's most popular young physi-
clans and has already built up u hand
some practice. DIR. Slauter will rep
resent him-until he returns.
Yesterday was an exceedingly dull
day in the Third and Fourth wards.
The saloons were Theoretically sealed
and the disgusted look upon the faces
of the boys was enough to bring tears
to the eyes of the most obdurate, as
they wandered forth II by one, only
TO find their old haunts deserted and
the doors OF their daily camping
grounds, tightly closed. The disap-
pointments OF life are sometimes al
most too great to be borne.
The 7. and f. Ward boys are taking
considerable interest in base ball, and
say that the new club recently organ
lied, will, after IA little practice, prove
a match for any in the state.
Ex-Alderman Morton seems to be
the choice of a great many
in the Fourth ward to fiji
the vacancy now existing.
inlrd WaruerS say thai the Fourth
Ward will in future be the law
less portion of the city,
while on the other hand the
Fourth warders contend that their list, +
ward has always been known as the
Bloody Third" and always will.
Strange they can't both resolve to be
the quietest in the city.
1t would be u big scheme if the city,
the property owners on Fourteenth
street. or the Santa Fe railroad COM
pany would put that street from Main
to the Santa Fe depot in good condi-
ton TO that pedestrians will be able to
reach it in incIement weather. Asitis.
they are forced to hire a carriage to get
there.

families to such %scandalous babble
from the pulpit if they so desired.
These are facts, to say nothing of what
Mr.. Bradden is accused. There was
much Indignation expressed on the
streets Wednesday relative, so said,
to DR.. Bradden's boastful manner and
scathing sectional comparisons, the
North with the South, calling South
ern people aset OF ignoramuses, declar-
ing them the personification of non
enterprise and ignorance, or to
that effect, in a speech before the
normal school of this city. These
remarks nettled the teachers and
others connected with the educational
interest here in a that called
forth many unguarded remarks from
citizens, advantage of which, no doubt,
was taken by n class ofboys which this
community finds as powerless to punish
as DR.. Braden would in the absence of
Identification. Whether DR.. Braden
used the language attributed to him or
not we cannot say, but we are in
formed that members of his own
church (ladies) were insulted by his
remarks. Upon close investigation.
however, we were of the opinion that
DR.. Braden was misunderstood
10 some extent in his re-
marks at the seminary, and that
he might have a chance to make him
self better understood, the columns of
this paper were rendered him, but we
received no response. To Dir. Braden's
appointment, Wednesday night, less
than a dozen responded and he did
not lecture; this was the way the citi-
zens generally claim to have rebuked
what they regarded to be an insult.
and they do not endorse any attack
upon his person. DIR. Braden is still at
the residence of Postmaster Wellborn.
through whom he demands a public
explanation of the citizens. The citi-
zens claimed that he had forfeited
their respect for him by iadecency and
discourtesy, and refuse to make an
explanation OF a matter they claim not
to be responsible for, and thus it
stands.
