CHANCE 10 MAKE MONEY.
The travel through this city de-
mands first-class hotel bullding-a
building to cost not less than $500, 00O.
The people Of Fort Worth feel the
necessity OF such an addition 10 the
hotel facilities OF tho city, but the citi.
2ens who are able TO put up such a
bnildlng have their means invested
in other public and private enter
prises, 8nd foreign capital Is invoked |
TO InYe tigats the opportunity offered
at Foit WpitA uf making i profitable |
investment 10 - uHa Motel building. |
Tho hotel registration will fsyorably |
compare with shat of any city In the |
Union Of double the population, and in
no city in tue South is such hotel 90
urgently needed. To any man who
will put up sucha building u guaran-
tee will be given for five or ten years
ofl0 per cant. interest on the invest.
ment. This Ia a Fare opportunity for
Idle money or capital that is yielding
only 5 or per cont. revenue. People
In Texas or outside the State with |
money can invest it here in fine ho- |
tel building and have en- annual inter-
est OF 10 per cent. guaran 0ed for five |

GREEN ERIN's MEN.
Whatever may be- said Of tho Irish
laborers on the railroRds, 1t must be
admitted that their toliies and faulta
are Injurious only TO themselves.
They drink and they fight, earn thei
money hard aud spend it foolishly, but
they srm jhemyelve0 with nothing
moro dangerous than the pocket flask.
Tho deadly revolver is NOS hidden in
the hip pocket or tho deadly bowie
knife in tho boot leg. To enjoy
bit of O fight Is part Of thor
nature, but the results leave no
records Of horror OK grief-stricken
wives and children of murdered
fathers 10 mourn over their slaugh-
tered protectors graves. IL IL o pity
that such generous souls shoud ever
let the temptation 70 drink overcome
them. Is is esd that they so soon for
get the last injunction of their dear old
soggarth, ana the last caution OF q
dearer mother who never ceases to
pray for her cherished, but guilty boy
beyond the seas. Please God her
prayer wilt save him yeti Coleman

suPRRFLUoUs NEWSPAPERS.
The contest between the News and
THE HERALD for tho business OF North
Texas is one OF tho most ridiculous
ever witnessed. The idea that thoso
two papers contain matter any morn
ing IN eXcess of the Fort Worth papers
worth the eXpease Of s special train,
or even u special arrangement TO
transmit, Is the veriest hosh, The
whole State is still laughing at tho
contemplate exhibition. After while
tho disgust will come. IL " amazing
this nonsense. The fact is, there Is not
business ENOUGH IN Ogllas or from that
point TO make fortune for one Of
them, and with both in the field disas-
TOR is bound TO ovortako ono and per-
maps both. Better hyphenato and do
livery promptly.-lWaco Examiner.
