The Goldens.

Next Friday and Saturday nights
and Saturday matinee the above
troupe will play in Fort Worth. The
following is what the st. Louis Re
publican says Of this excellent COM
pany;
"fhe patrons OF the opera-house had
genuine surprise last week In the
Planters Wife performance. The
play and the company came here with
cut previous acquaintance, or the usual
fbrmalities of introduction, and made
8 sensation. The predictions made
IN these columns on Monday morn
lag that tine audience would over
flow by the end Of the week
vas amply falhlled. It could not
have been otherwise, as everyone who
saw the performance of the Goldens
on the first night told his friends about
II and took his family TO IL. And this
was the history of the whole week,
aud the one weeks engagement was
too short. No such success of an UNI
known play has been made IN this
city since the days of Matilda Herron's
Camille, which many remember.
Every one who saw 1t was an original
dIscoverer, and the success grew out Of
its own merits. Thus dramatic history
repeats itself at long intervals, and
thus II Is established that no good
thing can fail OF due recognition

SAN DIEGO, TEX Oct. We have
had a few showers during the last week
or so, which have been beneficial as
far as they go, but there has not been
half enough TO do any material good
yet The ground In this vicinity has
been wet so slightly that the sand
storms are almost OF daily occurrence
aud the dust rises In clouds and per-
vades everything.
We should have had meeting OF
The county court yesterday to take into
consideration the propositions and
bids TO build Jail In our
county, but the commissioners did not
put In an appearance, aud there being
no quorum nothing was Gone. The
probability Is that there will not be

manifested about the election amongst

BROWNSVILLE, TEX Sept. o.
Since the raine, which have been gem
eral along the Rio Grande, everyone
looks for revival In business. Wa
ter IL plenty and grass good now for
stock. Some corn may be raised II we
have a late fall. But before an cleo
tion all classes OF business are de-
pressed and this depression coupled
with the late drouth Is severely felt
here.
District court, on Saturday, clos, d
very interesting session. TWenty-three
true bills were found by the grand
jury, and seven convictions made.
Several important civil suits were dis.
posed CT; some cases were ordered re-
moved TO the United States circuit

Several important improvements for

brick school-house, costing S25, 900,
will be built soon by the city; and u

The districts are five in number,
comprising two on the East side, two
on the West side, and one which in
cludes the business part of the city be-
tween Bluff and Tenth streets, on
Rusk, Main, Houston and Throck-
morton, and when the territory and
condition of the mail is taken into
consideration, the carriers have
done good work. There are many
letters in the postoffice that cannot be
delivered by the carriers because they
cannot find the parties the letters are
addressed to. For instance, letter Is
addressed to John Jones, East Bel
KNAPP street, and the carrier Is eX-
pected 20 deliver this letter. 1t Is easy
TO see the difficulty experienced in de-
livering it. and there are many hun
bred letters in the Office similarly adj
dressed. Even drop letters, deposited
by merchants here, are not addressed
with the street and number of those
they are intended for, and consequent
ly some delay is caused in their
delivery, This should not be; all drop
letters should be properly addressed
when it is possible.
A new city directory Is being ar
ranged which will greatly facilitate
the delivery of the city mail, and the
public should be as lenient as possible
with the carriers, for they labor under
many difficulties of which the public
does not dream. Some streets near the
limits of the city are not named, and
where this is the case notice should be
given to the city council by the res
\ idents living thereon.

Logan has been compelled since his

many of tire more important letters are
answered by Mrs. Logan and the Cen

from old soldiers, conveying congratu-

asking some favor. In accordance with
a rule adopted when he entered public
life, and closely followed ever since,
General Logan answers promptly every
letter he receives. At this time, how
