Rock Island Extension.

Correspondence of the Gazette.
ARCHER CITY, TEX, May 7.-Our
beautiful town has not long been before
the public as one of the favored points in
this much favored country, but it il
gaining friends fast, and its attractive
ness increases with its growth. Cleve-
land IS political opponents claimed that
he was man 'without record, - that
nobody knew him. But it is q matter OF
history that he won the race. We make
the prediction that Archer City, though
new in tss field, will, like this modern
champions1 democracy, astonish every
one with heHsteadY march to the head of
the processlSsfs She has the foundation
for large citEsand her builders are able
and earnest. he is suEsounded by one
of the most rerA and Aesirable agricul-
tural sections in ne ssege of Texas. All
these lands at or will be,
for sale to farmers. Being
the county seatyNArcher City will
handle the trade ~ SEfs section, and it
will take many Efcres $40 do it. Now is
the time to get 4esirabTs sites for build
ing. Prices otSbusinesssfpts have gone
up fast in the 9aare and On streets near
pyB DuI lnefe5Afe YET many 4ehOlce locs-
tons at reaAhable figures. Sin few
days there va probably be great ad-
vance in all al estate.
If we read@eight the horoscope which
influences the birth of the railroad enter
prises Of this section, we can see the
brightest prospect for the immediate ex-
tension of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas railroad to Archer City; also the
Rock Island in the near future. We
read from the signs the prosperity aud
rapid advancement of this city of the
prairie.
Those who wish to secure homes in one
of the finest parts of Texas, near rail-
road, stores, churches, schools, etc, at
low prices and on easy terms, would do
we'll to lose no time in coming to Archer

THE ASYLUM FIRE.

Deriied-One Hundred and Fifty Is

MONTREAL, P. O., May As the
full details of the Tongue Pointe asylum
fire become known the horror is intensi-
fed, and the sister is derided who as
serts that the number of dead does not
exceed sixty. 1t is known by the last
report to the Quebec government that
there were 1880 inmates instead of 1900
and this much is certain. that no one
will ever know the number of victims
From collateral information It must
be there are $50 dead. The coroner
with his premier, Judge Dugas, Senator
ThIbeaux and S. Grow, ministers, ar
rived at the scene yesterday afternoon.
and IL enough material can be found
an inquest will be held. The tiremen
have left the ground and the heat is dr7
ing out the RUNS. The sight of the
screaming wretches was bad, but there
is sadder spectacle in weeping relatives
seeking In vain or some tidiugs Of their
family. Men coming up town last night
to dinner were startled by seeing q luna
tic parading the streets rejoicing in his
freedom and menHcing women TILL he was
secured. Paying patients Jared best,
but the great loss was among those con-
fined in the upper stories and in dark
basement cells. Commissioner Prav
characterizes the buildings as a death
trap and as a disgrace to q civilized
country.

EDDIE BROWNS TROUBLES.
A Matrimonial Experience That is Hinged
With Romsnee-A Wife Who Came
and Went OF VIII.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. May s.-A story OF
matrimonial experience which is as in
teresting as q romance was fled IN the
circuit clerk IS office this week in petit
ton for divorce by Edwin P. Brown OF
727 Locust street. Full of strange cpl
sodes and unpleasant in the extreme has
been Brown s married life, If his allega-
tons are well founded. In order TO OBJ
tain service on his wife, whom he be-
lieves to be in the city under an assumed
name, although she left him ostensibly
to visit relatives in New York, a deputy
sheriff Is securing the town with man
who can identify her on sight.
March l 1886, Brown was married to
Alice Maud Brown in Chicago. Brown
alleges that on the last day of the follow
ing July she left him with the declara-
ration that she "would go home to
ma. - In few months she returned,
lived with him o short time, and then
angrily left him without q word until
March l, 1887, the anniversary day of
the marriage when she smilingly tripped
across the threshold and said, "Well,
Eddie, 1 have returned.
In few days Mrs. Brown again dis
appeared, not even corresponding with
her husband until February, 1889, when
she again bobbed up serenely, dwelt with
her husband for few days and then left
him. She returned October &c, and on
December 81 declared she was going to
New York to visit her family as she had
80 often done before.
Brown says that during the four years
they haye been married his wife has
lived with him total of seven months.
He says this has caused much scandal
among his neighbors. Lately he has
been given good reasons, he says, to be-
lieve that his wife is living IN Kansas
City under an assumed name, and Is fol-
lowing double existence. He thinks
she is either acting as the wife of an
other man or is living life of shame, as
she has been seen on the street at late
hours of the night with strange man.

Tho hoard of Trade.

At l clock on Saturday afternoon the
members of the board of trade are TO
meet at the board rooms to go in body
to the Spring Palace, as representatives
of the city's commercial and Industrial
interests. 1t is desired TO make the rep
resentation as strong as possible, and as
all places of business in the city are to
be closed during the afternoon,
there does not appear any
reason why the members should not
turn out in force.
There are still many citizens who
have expressed themselves as desiring to
connect themselves with the board of
trade but who have not done so; and
there are others who have not expressed
themselves but who are nevertheless
faYorably inclined to the board. 1t is
desired that all such be present on Sat-
urday at 10 O'Clock to sign the
roll of membership. swell the ranks
of the organization, and align
themselves with its objects and purposes
The welfare of Fort Worth is every citi-
zen IS interest, and no man should con-
slider his interests secure until he known
the interests of the city are being looked
after. The board of trade is the watch
guard of the city.

In the light of the past it is little wonder
that prophets OF evil foretold dire conse-
quences from the labor displays that
were to take place on the 1st, and
Intensely gratifying is it to the
IOreal friends of the workiuRman
that these prophecies came to nsught.
The orderly character Of the demonstrs-
tons spoke In terms undeniable, that
however just the eight-hour men deemed
their quarrel, they also believed that
disorder and bloodshed would retard the
progress Of the movement. This regard
for law told also of growth of intelli-
genee, Of a progress of ideas and princi-
pies and showed the benefit Of conserva-
tive organization, qualities that
rying forward desired reforms.
Violence can never settle such in
tricate problems as the labor question
involves, capital and labor must meet in
conciliatory spirit on neutral ground and
by thorough understanding of the
rights of each, and by mutual conces-
sion reach that happy result where their
righteous claims are full ly met. Not by
strength, not by might. not by violence
or disregard of law will the happy end
be attained. The wealthy and the poor,
the employer and the employed, are
alike int crested in a fair adjust
ment. And when labor presents
a calm, majestic front, when men
band together simply for justice
and not for riotous purposes, when the
leaders do not seek to inflame their fol-
lowers, but rather to instruct them
rightly and guide them wisely, then will
adjustment of present difficulties become
easy and peace achieve her greatest VIC
tory. This is no Utopian dream, but q
thing practicable, and the day seems
dawnIng when workingmsn, appreeiat-
ing the dignity that belongs to right, will
feel that on them as well as on men of
means depend the stability of the govern
ment and the welfare of the governed,
day that shall bring to all conviction
fixed and steadfast that it is only through
legitimate channels relief can come from
the evil alike attendant upon monopoly
and misery.

A Fine Showing.


Texas seems to have entered period
of unexampled prosperity. San Antonio :,
Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth and Calves
ton are growing at remarkable rate.
kilograms and papers from all interior
smaller towns indicate that buildings are
being erected aud other improvements
being made almost everywhere. The
Panhandle country is filling up rapidly.
There is a healthy demand for. farm
lands in all the old counties
of the state. Immigration is pour
ing in. In fact there is a steady and
rapid advance all along the line. The
causes are sufficiently apparent. We
had fine crops last year. and our farmers
were the only American farmers that
were paid for their products. Then the
fact is beginning to dawn on the people
of the United States that Texas is the best
state in it. Then there is the chance of
getting first-class harbor. Finally we
are all at work. We shall make q fine
showing this census year. If We had just
one more year before the question asked
came around, we would be entirely salts
fed with the figures he W i'll cast up.

The Road Problem.
Terrell Register.

Our esteemed fellow citizen, T. G.
Glass, believing in common with many
others that the question of our having
good roads and at no distant date is a
most important one, has evolved plan
for their repair that combines tbs three
features desirable-practieabil dura-
bility and low cost. At the request of
the Register representative, Mr.. Glass
exhibited very neat diagram and plan
of the proposed construction, and we
think that IL should meet the approval
and hearty corporation of his public
spirited fellow citizens.
The groundwork of the proposed road
way consists of light orossties or sleepers
laid at intervals Of eight feet. The track
is to be cast in iron, sixteen feet long and
about eight inches in width, pyramidi-
cal fiauge two inches in heighth running
along the inside track holding the vehicle
in place. Where sand is obtainable, the
sleepeFs are sunk to the level of the sur
face of the ground and the space between
the rails Is filed to the haighth of the
fiange. In the black lands of Forney
and vicinity, where material for the
pathway is not available except at great
cost, plaBking is nailed 10 the orossties.
The cost of such construction is sixty five
cents per lineal foot, as compared with
81. rs per foot in other methods now in
use. In order to illustrate to the skepti-
cal the practicability OF his idea, Mr..
Glass will construct section of new road
at his own expense near the asylum.

BUILDING AND REALTY.
People Of Fort Worth Have Something
to Show Their Guests.
The Astonishing Story Of Fort Worth's Growth
and What She Has to Show for 1.-THE
Ladies' Seminary Assured.

Fort worth's busy season is at hand.
The crowds are gathering, the streets
are becoming crowded with the visitors,
and the hotels are already filed up. The
expectations of the people Of the number
OF visitors who would be here during
May promises to fall far short of the
reality. and if Fort Worth acquits her
self creditably in the entertainment OF
AL these people she viii surprise many
who have watched the gathering evil
dences of an unprecedented swarm of
guests.
In view of these things it is with COM
placent satisfaction that the people of
Fort Worth look about them and con-
template what they have to show their
visitors, and consider what there is IN
the astonishing growth and development
of the city that may be related with in
terest to the guests. 1t can be told how
thirteen years ago an insignificant ham
let whose population could be counted
with two cyphers, occupied the ground
where this city now looms; 1t can be told
how the first locomotive came and
with it the forward impulse which has
carried Fort Worth to the first rank
among the cities of Texas, it can be told
how succeeding trunk railway lines built
through this point, induced partly by the
natural advantages of the locality and
partly of bonuses made up and contrib
uted by the farseeiug and public minded
citizens, who had that faith in' Fort
Worth that they banked hundreds of
thousands of dollars on her future; 1t
can be told how the winning power of
the trunk lines centering at Fort
Worth has been so potent as to attract
the attendance hither of the foremost
men in the railroad world. 1t can be
told how Fort Worth occupies central
position in the best agricultural section
of the state, where wheat and cotton
thrive side by side, and how she holds
the key that unlocks the granaries of
West and Northwest Texas, the fame of
which sections has gone abroad through
out the country. The marvellous growth
of the city throughout her ca
reer can be diiated upon,
and the evidences of her continued prog
ress can be pointed out on every hand,
where magnificent seven and eight-sto
business houses are beng reared on the
main streets, where cosy cottages and
more ornate residence mansions are
crowdlng closer and closer on the outly-
ing streets, and where the adjacent
country is being drawn upon for more
room for the people who are flock
ing hither to live; and it
can be shown how the man.
ufacturing interests of the state
are largely centering here, as evidenced
by the numerous establishments of that
kind that have located here during the
past few months, list of which would
be surprising even to the citizens of Fort
Worth, who have resided here and seen
the city grow up around them.

SORROWS threaten the boy who dreams
of Fourth of July fun. Fire orackers
are bound to be high, so say the dealers,
as only half the supply will be on hand
on that day. It is true that a cargo of
1876, 900 boxes has arrived, but what is
that among so much patriotism as ex-
ploits itself in fireworks on Independence
day? and all this increased cost and ag-
gravated disappointment is due to strikes
among Chinese workmen, which prevent
the merchants from carrying out their
contracts. Verify, the rsmiacations Of
social existence are wonderful.

eN view OF the late defeat of the Blair
educational bill, the negroes in conven-
ton at Richmond, Va. and Greensboro,
N. c., recommended the policy of abb
sentation to their people. The int Iii
gent leaders say that this defeat was q
blow at popular education, and was due
to the indifference of the Republican
party to their interests. They therefore
recommend that for time the colored
voters stay away from the polls and let
the party they have hitherto upheld feel
the weight of their displeasure.
