ABILENE. Tex, Dec. q. 1890.
DEAR SIR:-Your attention is respect
fully asked to the following circular let
ter:
To the Cities and Towns on and Adjacent to the
Rio Grande Division of the Texas and Pacific
Railroad:
For a very long time past the bulk of
the immigration coming to Texas has
been induced to seek homes in the Pan
handle and elsewhere in Texas. This
has been the direct result of organization
on the part of the people composing the
cities and towns of these portions of the
state, many of them less favored by ma
ture than ourselves.
One town by itself can accomplish
nothing, comparatively, but a united eff
fort GU the part of all towns on and ad-
iacent TO the Texas and Pacific railroad
can accomplish much, and secure at least
O fair portion of the immigration that is
pouring into Texas at this time, and is
daily beng diverted from is by organ
lied advertising.
Approaching the Importance of taking
Immediate and decisive action on this
matter, the board of trade of Abilene
has directed that a circular letter be
prepared and addressed to presidents of
boards of trade and citizens of all the
towns from Fort WORTH to Ell Paso, urg-'
ing them to meet in Abilene, Tex,
January 5, next, for the purpose of con-
sidering this very important matter. It
is thought that with the assistance of the
Texas and Pacific railroad, the placing
of ar agent or agents in Fort Worth with
sufficient amount of literature, and the
adoption of such other means as may
suggest themselves to the convention in
convention herewith, that We may be
able to accomplish our object aud COM
pete for our due share of immigration.
1t is earnestly requested that you send
delegates with full authority to act for
you, and state what amount your town
can subscribe 20 assist in this movement,
which must result in much good to our
respective sections.
We assure you on the part of the citi-
Zens of Abilene cordial and genuine well
come, and will eudeavor to arrange with
the Texas and Pacific railroad for cheap
rates. Very respectfully yours,
w. H. EDRINGToN,
Secretary Boaid of Trade.

The YEARS BUILDING
The Line Will Follow the De-
mand for Cheaper DWELL
ing Houses.
Architects and Contractors
Express Their Views Of
the Outlook.
Fewer Large Blocks But Many
More Houses to Be
Erected.
A Prospect That Will Univer-
sally Be Conceded Sat-
isfaetory.

Conflicting opinions have been heard
on all sides, and are still heard from va
riOuS sources, relative to the amount
and character of the building that will
occur IN st. Paul this season. Some
loudly assert that there will be more
building of all kinds than there has
been for many seasons past, while the
statements of the more conservative
contractors are indicative of dull sea-
son, at least in some branches Of the
building trades. With view of gain
ing a reliable idea of the condition of
affairs, GLOBE reporter yesterday in
terviewed number Of st. Paul archi-
tects and contractors on the spring out
look. The former are almost unani-
nous in asserting that there will be a
large amount of building done this sea-
son, and concur in prophesying that
the greater portion of the work
will be OH residences in the out
lying districts, principally the Midway
district, next Hamline, Manchester,
South st. Paul and about the Grand
avenue electric line. The demand, so
far as eau be judged at present, will be
chiefly for residences costing from
$1,000 to $4,000, the erection of such
structures being justified by the ever
increasing demand for cheaper rents.
The belief seems universal that there
will be a boom in building of greater or
| less proportions in South st. Paul, and
several heavy contracts for buildings of
various kinds have already been let in
that vicinity. As was expected. the
completion of the Grand avenue cleo
| tric line has created a demand for prop
erty along the route, and there is every
indication that the sales already made
have been to hOmeseekerS, who will
build houses on the property acquired,
rather than to spectators. The latter
class of purchasers are, however, en-
gagged in the erection of large number
of gingerbread structures for
Purposes OF Speculation,
notably recent erections on Rondo and
Dale streets, also on Thomas, Edmund
and Charles streets and in the Arlington
Hills district. In addition to the sew
eral theaters to be built this summer,
there are numerous structures of equal
Importance in embryo, though of these
the architects refuse to give deScrip-
tiOnS, owing to the unfinished state of
the negotiations.
Messrs. Gilbert & Taylor have some
plans in preparation for large blocks in
the business part of the city, though
they are unable at this time to give the

that in addition TO his many other accom-
plishments, Mr.. Gilillan is an expert player
on the violin. He is the best amateur
PLAYER in st. Paul Mr.. Gilfillan IS OF
a retiring disposition, which will account for
few people being aware of his musical at
tainments. The secret came out one evening
The uast week After hard days work, an
excellent supper. Mr.. Gii6llan sat down TO
enjoy half hours turn" on his violin his
whole soul seemed to go out with the music,
and, SO engGossed did he become, he was soon
entirely oblivous to his surroundings. lie
never for moment realized that the kero'
seue lamp at his back was dangerously Verg-
ing on an explosion. The room filed win
smoke but Mr.. Gilfllan played on he forgot
TO smell the nauseating atmosphere WHICH
pervaded the room. Fatal consequences
might have followed, but for the opportune
arrival of q friend, who, entering the room,
saw the smoke and instantly rushed ana rang
the fire alarm. The tiremen were quickly on
the scene of the supposed coniiagratlon, and
il took Mr.. Gilfllan fully three-quarters OF an
hour to explain how the thing occurred
That is how he put it. He endeavored to
swear the firemen into secreSy, ana succeed
ell with all but one mana pipeman-and he
thought the story was too good one TO Keep
quiet. Hence the veil of secresy mas been
raised.
