II he doesn It really want to go to Chi

the locals, but it is nevertheless a good

to sell cheap Chicago ticket to q man
wanting TO go to Rock Island or Bur-
lington. He can refuse, too, if he has
not posted a notice of a reduction to
Chicago.
The Milwaukee, with its fine new train
to St. Paul by way of Hedrick junction,
Is in good position to reduce rates to the
North, and yesterday it took flyer by
reducing the rate to the Twin Cities to
Sc, which is So less than the rate lust es-
tablished. AS the season has Just opened,
the Milwaukee hopes to get its new He'd
rick route service well before the people
before the rate war is over. The Wabash

TIE ARKANSAS PASS.

a Few Facts About a Reaching Out Texas
Railroad.
Assistant General Passenger Agent R
w. Andrews of the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass was in the city yesterday
and was met by GAZETTE reporter, who
engaged him in conversation about the
Arkansas Pass road in general.
1.-THE business of the line has increased
remarkably during the very recent
past, said MI. Andrews, "and it con-
tinues to increase. This can be accounted
for by the fact that it runs through the
very garden spots of the state
'What about the extension of the
road from Kennedy to Laredo, will it be
commenced soon. -
eyes, the line has been surveyed and
located once, but the company has out d
corps Of engineers making a secoud loca-
ton. The bridge across Buffalo Bayou,
at Houston is now being built, which,
when completed, will give the Aransas
Pass an outlet TO the pine regions of the
East. When this is done the work of ex-
tending to Laredo will be pushed.
LIS there any truth in the report that
Sthelo Grande road has secured the
79SHhdoned grade of the Arkansas Pass
from Comfort TO Llano?"
"Not that l know of. The truth of
the matter is, that branch of the Arau-
sas Pass has not been abandoned. 1t
was not graded by the Aransas Pass COM
pany, but by the citizens of Fredricks-
burg, Llano and other towns with
the understanding that the Arkansas
would tie, iron and operate it after the
grade was finished. The funds of the
citizens run out when all of the grade
had been finished except a very heavy
piece of work near fredericksburg,
which 1 am satisfied will be finished as
was originally contemplated, and the
road operated in connection with or
rather by the Arkansas Pass svstem?''
'The reports that Jay Gould was to
become the owner of the system have not
materiallzed yet?''
''No, sir. That probably was like the
reports of the road going into the hands
of a receiver-nothing in it,"

Terrell Railway Talk.

Special to the Gazette.
TERRELL, TEX, May IA commit
tee of TerrelIites have been in close COM
munication for several days on railroad
matters. There is no definite informa-
ton as to the committees intention, put
enough has been obtained to create the
belief that Athens aud Palestine are
liable to let Terrell work by herself; and
this being known longer haul is con-
templated by parties away from
Terrell, and the route deviates
only little from the Tyler and Gaines
vile road talked of last summer. This is
to be, If conjectures are correct, line
from near Jacksonville via Terrell to
the Northwest, running between Denton
and Pilot Point ana connecting with the
Rock Island. The Southwest end is to
connect with the Mississippi Valley road.
There are those, however, who say the
Palestine, Athens and Terrell line will be
built and that Palestine and Athens Will
join with Terrell in the enterprise. Any
how, letter from a prominent ex-rail-
road Official, says Terrell is going to get
one or more railroads.

were at once summoned and strong men
were soon in attendance. His wife and
two children were called, and everything
that human skill and loving hands could
do was done, but death came at about
1880 This morning. His deputies were
with him rs well as were the sheriff and
his deputies and many friends as he
bTeathed his last. Our people know how
to appreciate such an officer as John
Hammond, and it is not strange to see
strong men weep when they knew he
must die. His place will be hard
to fill. He was brave, generous,
and true, active, energetic and respon-
sible. In his death Vernon has lost
noble officer, good citizen, q dutiful
husband and a devoted father. His wita,
and two little children are almost frasff
with grief, and every thing is being '68fe
TO reconcile them in their sad bereaye-
ment.
Hammond had gone up to see Sheriff
Conn, and passed through a narrow hall
to his room. Sheriff Conn said he would
meet him at The foot of the stairs. He
must have had something of importance
on hand. 1t is thought that in his hurry
he ran against the banister of the stair
way, lost his balance and fell to the
ground floor about twenty feet, striking
on his head causing conclusion of the
brain, whlcA produced death.

An Appreciative Audience at the University
Listens to Local Talent.
One of the most enjoyable events of
the season was the piano recital given by
Miss Sue Terrell in the chapel of Fort
Worth university Thursday evening. A
and their appreciation of the perform
ances was shown by their hearty Rp-
plause.
Miss Terrell is q teacher in the fourth
grade of the musical department of the
univerlty, and lacks two grades of COM
pleting the full course. She is young
lady of marked abilities, and has ac-
quired an enviable reputation among her
many friends and acquaintaces as a mu-
sician of no mean merit. Her technique
was good, and showed the thorough and
skillful training of her instructor, Miss
Williams. Her performances were such
as to reflect credit both upon herself and
her teacher, and to cause her friends to
form high anticipations as to her future.
Miss Terrell was assisted by Miss Ora
George, who is known to Fort Worth
people as a young lady of remarkable
attainments as an elooutionist. Her ex-
preston and tones are almost perfect
and her pleasing appearance captivated
every one.
During the evening Miss Eta Field
and Miss Ruby Ball each rendered So
prano solos. Both of these young ladies
have, clear, rich voices, and their rendi-
tons called forth hearty and prolonged
applause.
The entertainment was undoubtedly
one of the most pleasant and entertain
ing ever given in the university, and
Miss Terrell may well be proud of her
efforts. The following is the pro-
gramme rendered:

The short train of the: Denver road
running between Fort Worth and
Quanah, is becoming more popular
every day, and it never leaves this point
without big load of passengers. This
train is equipped with all the modern i'm
provements, has an elegant chair car
with toilet room, etc., and makes the
run to Quanah at the rate of twenty-five
miles an hour. 1t is a noticeable fact
that the sales of tickets at the uptown
ticket Office has largely increased since
the train was put on. The Denver is
doing all it can to accommodate the
public, and the efforts made are aDpre-
oiated
