Stoves are Wanted.

Passengers who are compelled to wait for
trains in the waiting room of our alleged
Union depot are bitterly complaining over
the failure of the railroad officials to pro-
vide stoves or other means of heating the
room. Many have caught severe colds,
which are liable to result in serious cases
Of pneumonia. A GAZETTE reporter yes
terday investigated the matter and found
that toe officials here are not responsible
that the requisition for the stoves was sent
to the storeheeper of the Texas and Pacific
railway at Marshall some time ago, but the
stoves have so far failed to show up and
there are no stoves in the vicinity that
could be obtained for even temporary use.
1t is hoped the stoves will arrive before
another norther Genes whistling across the
prairies, but in the meantime those who
arc perforce compelled to use the room at
night should go well supplied with wraps if
they do not wish their teeth to play the
part OF castauets.

Acase That Need, Attention.

There is considerable agitation among
the residents OF Missouri avenue, and the
spirit of indignation is running high, and
all because of the alleged ill-treatmert of
an aged and helpless lady by her sons.
The woman in question is confined to her
bed with paralysis and unable to move, be-
ing perfectly helpless, though a large and
heavy woman.
Until recently respectable white wo-
man has been taking care Of the old lady.
but the task of lifting her around was too
much, and the attendant broke down.
When this occurred one of the sons Of the
woman brought woman of decidedly tat
tered reputation from that portion of the
city known as 1.-The Acre. and introduced
her in the house as his wife. This was, Of
course, offensive to the ladies' OF the neigh
borhood, who had been in the habit of drop
ping in daily to see the helpless invalid,
and they ceased their visits. The case will
be brought to the attention of the authori-
ties, and if they fail to provide a means of
caring for the invalid the people in the Vi
cinity viii take matters in their own hands.

4 Little or Color

Fort Worth has about as clever set of
cabmen as any city can boast of-in fact
they excel in many respects, always
genteel and accommodating. There exists
no rivalry between them other than a pleas
ant nature and it can be said they stick 10
each other through thick and thin. a
couple of nights since there appeared on
the stand a hack presided over by negro.
This fact spread among the cabbies, aud it
was agreed to notify him that he was not
wanted, and must make himself scarce. The
boys did this in 4 nice but firm manner, and
the Objectionable party moved OF. Last
night at a late hour he appeared again,
however, and irtimated his determination
20 hold the fort. and was loaded for those
who dared to dispute his right. This time
The pale-faces, spying the intruder, charged
the enemy, who, when last seen, was hitting
the grit for the lower part of town, and has
failed so far to rally for an attack. He left
his team, but the owner soon appeared and
took il 10 possession.
