The property holders and business
men of Dallas, if they could read all the
comments of the papers all over the
state in regard TO their want of enter
prise at time when they should be ac-
tive and wide-awake, would not sit SUI
pinely in their easy chairs and wait for
Others to do that which they should ac-
complish themselves. The Ennis Re-
view says: "The Dallas HERALD, al
ways wideawake (perhaps trifle ner-
vous) as to the best interests of Dallas,
is just now delivering some well-timed
lectures TO the citizens of that city in the
effort to wake them up to tho impor-
lance of catching fortune as she fiies.'
AS friend of Dallas, the Review hopes
to see the HERALD's kindly warnings
needed. Should that city continue to
rely too much on "natural advantages"
and underestimate the enterprise of the
"county town." up in Tarrant, she may
see her folly sooner and feel IL more
keenly than sho has dreamed Of in her
philosophy.

On the rise of hill about five miles
from here on the road to Manchester, Car.

an old. tn mbls- ,wn log y-cabn. A heavy
growth OF shrubbsry covers the shrunkeu

old chimney. The hut stands back a lit

F-w of the thousanls of pc pple who ride

that the dilapidated house, or the ground
under it, has an occ ,a1t. The cou ntry
folk for miles ar5uad who happen to
know that The hut has an owner re er to
the matter with a suparstitious air, ani
some OF them will no. drive by thu hut
after dark. The hermit has his hor1s
in cave under the remnants
of the house The underground
habitation is entered by trap DOR in the
floor of the old house. People who have
lived in th $ section of the country for
forty or fifty years say they rem smber

bsarl as long and as white as it is now.
Speculation as to his age would tn erefore
be ussles. He told far N r that he was
over a hundred, and that he had lived
alone nce he was tweaty five years OF
age. His name has been general y given
as o iver Ronlon. He appears to be in

cerned but OF moder1 times he cares moth
ing and knows less. When canvassiny 2

"For a President" was the reply.
or Cleveland?"

old man. AMI the solicitor gave up his case
as hopeless.
The hermit will never look at a woman.
l. one comes near him, or he sees
woman riding or walking along the road,
he will hide in the bushes. He never
begs, has never been known to steal, and
it is a wonder how he lives. He pays no
rent for his sh anty or cave, the owners of
the properly, wlich has frequ .nt.y
changed hands, never turning the old
man off. The hermit has boarded the
ceiling and sides of his cavern home, and
a neighboriny farmer who was once in
vited into the under erground mansion says
he found it fairly com for table. There is
q stove, an ancient rocSin g-chair and an
