Notes OF Progress.

The eighth story is being put on the
magnificent $500, 200 Hurley building,
on the corner of Main and Seventh
streets.
Fort Worth has the handsomest church
ediflces of any city OF its population in
the United States. And yet new ones
are being built. Three churches now
under way, OF about to be commenced,
in Fort Worth will cos 5000, 900.
The Robbins brick store building, COR
uer of First and,Calhoun streets, is about
completed.
A large and commodious hotel con-
structed and maintained on the most
elaborate scale is one of the crying needs
of Fort Worth.
Fort Worth rivals Chicago in the mat
ter of grain elevators. There are fve of
them in this city with capacity of $780,
900 bushels, which is remarkable for an
inland city of the size of this one; but
then Fort Worth is railroad center, and
is located in the midst of the finest agri-
cultural country in the Southwest.
That manufacturing industries can be
conducted IN this city is attested. by the
exhibit of stoves at the Spring Palace,
the same being the output of the new
The spectacle of twenty-five handsome
store buildings gong up simultaneously
on the principal streets of the city and
effacing the old shanties that have done
discredit to the city so long will be in

to visitors.
The work of putting down the casing

approximates the latter calculation it
will be q magnificent showing. The sup

by cutting off the upper three strata

which lies at q depth OF about 1000 feet.
Judging from the action of the we'll

the next 200 feet. The water that is
flowing from the well now is clear and
pure. The we'll as it is now, if it were
private property would be a bonanza,
but the needs of the public waterworks
are SO great that the next stratum must
be reached before satisfactory results can
be attained. Every indication at pres
emit, however, is that the hopes of the
most ardent will be more than fulfilled,

best watered city in the country. With
pure, healthy artesian water running

THE assertion that the Quakers are not
dying out is made in letter from "a
Quaker to Murray's Magazine. Dur
ing the first half OF this century their de-
cline in numbers was very rapid; but for
a good many years past the accessions
by ''convinoement" have been every
year so greatly in excess Of the secessions
that, Notwithstanding a very low mar
riage rate and very low birth rate and
some immigration, there is yearly a
steady though slight increase in Great
Britain. In the United States the
Quakers, we are told by the same
authority, are increasing almost rapidly
especially in the South and West, main
Iy through accession from other religious
bodies.

Of Fort worth's young citizens: 1.-THE
address of the Texas press association to
the people Of Texas in behalf of civil
lied libel law prepared by E. G. Ssnter,
Esq, and which appears in this edition
of the Times, is a mastery and sbso-
lutely unanswerable argument faYoring
a statutory law governing a suit for civil
damages for libel. It is clear, logical,
incinve and eloquent. It not only ap-
peals to the intelligence and love of JUS
tics whlch ever abides in the heart of
free people, but 1t reflects great credit
upon Mr. senter. Mr.. Senter is yet

FoRr RoRTH,s ENTERPRISE

Austin Statesman: 1t is a truth that
gains strength by repetition that there
are some things which must be seen to
be appreciated, they cannot be described.
The Spring Palace is one of such things.
Conceived of as an exhibit of agricul-
turai and mineral products, the highest
type of decorative art has changed for
NAL array of bare entities, of themselves
containing more pecuniary value tina n
beauty, into veritable fairy home OF
bright eoloring, grotesque representa-
ton, sylvan beauty and artistic effect.
Moss pendant everywhere gives the visi-
tor at first glance sense of that delicious
GOODNESS found in the hidden recesses
Of some deep rooted forest. Such rest
full sense of comfort is not disturbed by
the multiplied touches of art; for each
contrast is one of harmony and the Pal
ace, as whole, is technically perfect.
There is most startlingly brought out the
theory of change under the law of
juxtapositlon. Things of themselves
trite and commonplace, when in COM
bination with other things equally well
known are found to produce something
so new and novel as to transix with
pleasureable surprise. The Spring Pal
ace is not only mine of Information
touching Texas products, it is studio
of art where are taught varied lessons Of
cause and effect, Of combination and
contrast.
This is what Fort Worth has prepared
for her visitors, coming not alone from
within the territory of Texas but from
every state in the Union. The Palace is
great Texas in miniature. Fort Worth
has edited guide book to the state. 1t
has not only inaugurated new thing in
Texas. but a great thing for the state.
Visitors from distance cannot but be
interested, pleased and made worshipers
of Texas greatness. Fort Worth de-
serves for this monument to Texas, not
only the thanks of the cities and citizens
generally of Texas, but people from
every section of tho state should visit
the Spring Palace and thus personally
show their appreciation. They can be
assured of a pleasant and profitable visit.

OUR CENSUS OF MANUFACTURES.

OUR CENSUS OF MANUFACTURES.
On the End day of June the work Of
collecting statistics Of manufactures for
the report of the Eleventh census will be
insugurated throughout the entire ooun-
try. The value of this report must de-
pend wholly upon the accuracy and
thoroughness with which manufacturers

The personal interests Of every manu-
facturer are involved in the character of
the report on manufactures. 1t will be
quoted for the next ten years as the off,
cial announcements OF the exact Industrial
condition of the country, and will be the
basis for any future legislation that may
be enacted in regard to the wants of our
people, whether engaged in agricultural
or mechanical pursuits. Therefore it is
of vital Importance to each manufao-
turer that an accurate report shall be

The superintendent of census has taken
every possible precaution in the prelim-
mary work to make this census comple etc
and satisfactory, and the earnest co-op-
Grafton of those engaged in productive
industry is all that is now necessary to
secure valuable results.
Every manufacturer should bear In
mind that his answers to the questions
relating to his business are held strictly
confidential, are not disclosed to any COM
petitor or to other persons, aud are not
used by the government as predicate for
the purposes of taxation or license, or in
any way to adversely affect his individual
business. This assurance is printed on
each schedule over the signature Of the
superintendent of census.
The expert special agent In charge of
this branch of census work, Mr.. Frank
R. Williams, has personally visited the
principal manufacturing cen.ers and
consulted representative manufacturers,
the publishers Of trade journals, and
practical business men generally, for the
purpose of ascertaining. the proper scope
of the inquiry for each branch of manu-
facturs. The questions contained in the
