Are Very Miserable Abode in
Winter.

It has been long time since Fort
Worth was as muddy in its high
ways and byways for several
days MS It has been Of late. The
dreary, misty weather in such marked
contrast to that which usunlly pre-
walls here has had u depressing effect
upon people who are comfortably situ-
ated. How much worse 1t is for those
who ara not well housed can be seen
in n glance at the wretched houses Of
some OF the poor In the outskirts Of
the city, and more particularly the
small host who are tenting on q sort
OF permanent camping ground across
the river. As yet there has been no
complaint from that quarter, but
the surroundings of the families
there are such as to indi-
cate that an appeal for help
from them would not be out of place.
The ground ~ very damp and wet
and the tents are surrounded with ice
and snow. while the keen wind OF
winter X whlstllng In through the
Tapping doors. The women and chill
drcn there mey not be objects OF
charity. but they are certainly not in
very enviable circumstances. Their
condition IS to be dopored even in
bright weather but In spell like
this II becomes much worse, so much
worse as TO attract the attention Of
passers-by to their misery.

the most convenient location which
would be available. and as the Texas
