GAZETTE'S GIRLS.
A Portion of Them Leave For
Hardin College.
RENDERED A GREAT OVATION.
Eight Thousand People Assemble at the
Depot to Bid Them God Speed.
The Music and the
FenCibles

AL day yesterday the sole topic of con-
versation upon the streets was the depar-
ture of The GAZETTE school girls for Har-
din college, and nothing else1seemed TO be
thought of. When the time came for the
departure the streets were filed with d
surging throng, and the parlors of the Ho-
tel Pickwick were totally inadequate to the
demands made upon them. The fame
of the young ladies had extended all over
the state, and the crowd was eager to catch
q glimpse of the bright young faces that
were 10 represent Texas a. Hardin college.
Il was not merely curiosity; each one felt
personal interest in the young ladies, as
they were in ! measure regarded as the es
pecial favtrites of the people of Texas.
Each one in that vast throng felt that Fort
Worth was honored in having them assem-
bled together prior 10 leaving for school.

Finding the Age of the Earth in Years.
Assuming that the average rate of denu-
dation in past geological ages did not
materially differ from what it is at present,
and that the total quantity of stratified rock
would, If uniformly spread over the whole
globe, form layer 1000 feet in thickness.
we have a total period Of 1000 multiplied
by 5000 multiplied by 4, or q, 900, 900 years.
This, however, only represents the time
necessary TO deposit the rocks which have
been formed By denudation from older
rocks. and these again by rocks of still
greater antiquity. Assuming that the
existing stratifed rocks have thus passed
three times through denudatioa and depo-
sition, we have period of q. 900. 600 years.

without consulting the lookup keeper

ocular demonstration of his ability to
make good his claim regarding the re-
moval OF those hideous parasites com
monty known as tapc-worms from the

OF which he is the discoverer and sole
proprietor. The Doctor had on exhi-
bition yesterday an immense tape-worm
seventy-tive feet in length, which he yes
terday morning took from the long.
suffering person OF Robert A. Voohl, an
employo OF <Pollack's cigar factory.
When first placed on exhibition the
creature was alive and wriggling, pre-
senting a picture intensely horriiying
to the observers, particularly when such
observer cannot disabuse his mind OF
the suspicion that he has one;of4 them

ton and playing an important role III
his internal anatomy. He also
successfully removed n monster from

his praise OF the Doctors medi-.

THIEVES AND THUGS.
Peculiar Occurrences Cause Con-
siderable Excitement.
TWO MEN ARE KNOCKED DOWN
Near tho Same Place and Are ut n
loss to Account for tho Assaults.
Suspicious Persons Seen on tho
strccts--.Two Attempts ut Burglary
Night Before Inst.


There was some excitement In TINT
portion Of the city lying east OF Eoir and
north OF Fourteenth street yesterday
Reports were in circulation Of mysteri.
GUS assaults on tho street the night be-
fore, and there was 10 explanation
offered OF tho motive or tho identity OF
tho assailants, II, indeed, there was more
than one OF Thorn. Tho fact that two
attempts ut burglary had also been
made in tho night might have some
connection with the cases, although
there is no evidence that 1t had.
Eph Ayers, wcll.known cigarmaker
employed by Medcr Bros, was walking
up Thirteenth street, near Byron, when
man approached without any hostile
demonstration, but just as he was oppo.
site him turned md struck him Il sting
ing blow on the head, knocking him
down. lie then began TO kick him, but
Mr.. Ayers's cries Tor assistance finally
frightened the man of and he ran,
while Ayers went over to Thompson's
grocery, on the opposite side Of the
street, and brushed himself off. He was
not very badly done up, and says ho has
no idea who his assaiant was, nor did
he say word that would indicate why
he attacked him.
The other victim OF a mysterious
assailant was Mr.. George Williams, who
was on his way to his homo on Byron
street when he was hit over tho head
with billy by some man unknown to
him. A long cash was cut in his scalp.
His assailant, after striking him, looked
in his face and said he thought he was
another man. Then he went away,
and this was all the consolation Mr..
Williams could got. Both these as
saults were made early in the evening,
that on Mr.. Ayers being about o'clock.
Two or three OF the non-union men en-
ployed by the Wholesale grocers board
out in that part OF the city, and it has
been suggested that the assaults were
meant for those men, but that is merely
guess. People who live out that way
are carrying good stout clubs or more
efficient weapons now. They do not
care to be the victims OF further posi-
bic mistakes.
Night before last while tho Misses
Cummins, OF Chaplinc street, were alb
sent from tho house, somebody entered
the space between their house and the
Fort Henry club house, and removed u
shutter, but did not get into the house.
An attempt was also made to enter the
residence OF Mr.. Michael Reilly, on the
corner OF Byron and Fourteenth streets,
but it was discovered and the men left
without eiiecting an entrance.
The policemen who patrol the East
Wheeling beat say that it is impossible
for one man to cover the whole territory
from Chaplinc street to McColloch and
beyond, and this claim is readily beliey-
ed to be true.
