DRY OF an elderly lady whoknew her
well. 1t was in the time when Boston
was the great actress nominal home,
and her summers were spent here and
there in rural Massachusetts. She
had engaged worthy neighbour 10 be
her charioteer during the season Of
one OF her country soiournings, and
they were setting out on their first ex-
cursion. With kind hearted loquacity
ne was beginning to expatiate on the
country, the crops, and the history OF
the people around about, when Fanny
remarked in her imperiors, dogmatic
fashion: "Sir, have engaged you to
drive for me- not to talk to me-" The
farmer ceased, pursed up his lips and
ever after kept his peace. When the
vacation weeks were over, and the
dame was about TO return to town,
che sent for her Jehu and his bill.
Running her eye down it's awkward
columns she paused. What is this
item, sir?" said she, II can not an

Rabbits Foot.

Rabbits Foot Oil is rapidly coming
to the front as q liniment and cure for
the many aches and pains to which
man is heir. 1t is proprietary medi-
cine. it is true, but it is Il wonderful
medicine for the cures it is intended TO
make. 1t is not jumped-up cure-all
to run an ephemeral course, but is a
scientific combination of the best
medicines used in liniments, and so
blended together that no other medi-
cine has ever equaled it in the happy
effects it produces. w. ii. Patterson
e Co. are its manufacturers, and it has
to be tried but once to satisfy one of
its true merits. Mr.. Patterson took
the blue ribbon upon his Rabbits
Foot Oil and his display also-quite
an honor achieved and worthy his
wonderful medicine. tt

Scare Among Cattlemen.

There was u scare among the cattle
men of the city yesterday over the re-
port that some one was enroute to
Dallas with car load of cattle infect
ed with pleuro-pneumonia. Some
talked of telegraphing Gov. Ireland to
quarantine against them, but an attor-
ney was consulted and informed the
gentleman there was no law for 1t ana
the matter dropped, but there is still
considerable feeling and if it be true
that such cattle are coming the
stockmen will probably visit the car in
good time.

Grants Rare Show of Emotion

Washington Letter TO the Boston Traveller.
During all of the negotiations be-
tween Grant and Lee said one OF the
formers staff officers Grant never
once showed the slightest trace OF ex.
citement or exultation. He had the
most remarkable control over himself
of any man ever saw. Never but on
two occasions have seen him give
way to his feelings. The first occasion
was the greeting OF the public school
children of San Francisco upon the &C.
casion OF his arrival from his tour
around the world. Grant was pas
sionately fond OF children. Their vel

The other occasion was when he was

served with him during the war had
been killed in railroad accident in
New York. This was after his first

before his election. He was in his

a teacher of natural sciences. There
were three candidates: DR.. Yoakum,

rapid growth of the enterprise, the

Walkers China Hall.

This palatial establishment is stu
ated at 617 Elm street directly in front
of Poydras street. Its name indicates
the character Of goods there to be
found. Beyond question it is the
finest, handsomest and largest crock
cry house in Dallas and the equal
of any south of st. Louis. The dis
play of china ware is superb. In
deed the whole store looks
like a fairy grotto with its
beautiful china ware in brilliant colors
and unique designs; its hanging arti-
fetal flowers in ornamental baskets
and great vases of the same; its mag
nificent glassware rejecting the light
in the Iris hues of the rainbow; its
splendid lamps and chandeliers and its
unsurpassed cutlery and charming ar
ticles of vertu for ornamentation.
Dinner sets. breakfast sets and tea sets
in all designs imaginable and there is
royal china there, as cheaper wares
too. Toilet and chamber sets abound
and indeed all you may want, you can
get there, at bed rock prices.
Messrs. Walker and Allen Marshall are
veterans in the business, and two clev-
erer, moro courteous gentlemen you
cannot find anywhere. Be sure and
visit this elegant establishment while
in the city. The store will be illumi-
mated every night and the public gen.
orally, especially strangers in the city,
are cordially invited to call and see
the beauties that will be displayed.

women of the city will doubtless look
to their wants. Mayor Brown is do
ing good work in that direction.
