between Third and Fourth streets, where
the First Kentucky artillery were stationed
for the purpose of firing a salute
Two of the bodies were blown over the
house tops, and were horribly mangled.
The wounded have been removed to the
hospitals. Two horses attached TO the
cannon were so horribly mangled that
they will be put to death All the killed
were members of the First Kentucky ar

considered the finest in the state.
Those killed are: Corporal AL Robinson,

The place where the accident occurred
is one of the finest resident districts in the
city. Fortunately, few people were on the
street or the list of killed and injured
would have undoubtedly been greatly in
creased. Every window in the block was
blown out
The body of the colored driver, mangled
almost beyond recognition, fell ON the
front porch of a residence, fully 300 feet
from the place where the explosion oc-

ing to the tree tops and in the shattered
windows. a leg and half a coat were
found on Third street, one block south of
where the explosion took place They
must have been blown clear over three
story and basement house. Several man
gled legs and arms were found on the tops
of adjacent houses.
Itis believed that the body of Private
Hutchins was blown to pieces, as it has
not yet been found The body of Howard
Irwin was so badly mangled that it was
almost impossible to gather it up without
a shovel. 1t was found at the intersection
of Broadway and Fourth streets, nearly a
block away.
1t is doubtful if anything ever occurred
in this region that has caused such wide
/ spread sorrow. The regiment to which
the young men belonged is made up of the
/ pick and flower of Louisville. Many of
them are society leaders and of wealthy
families. Captain David Castleman, who
was in charge was riding at the side of the
detail. He escaped injury.
The battery was on its way to Phoenix
hill for the purpose of firing a salute Of
forty guns. There were sixty-six
pounds of powder in the caisson.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.

! Texarkana is suffering from a toe
costly and burdensome city govern.
lnent. Both the East and West
side needs a financial "Moses" to
! lead her out of the wilderness OF
debt and heavy municipal expendi.
lures. Municipal reform must and
will come, sooner or later, else our
city charters will be forfeited. Let
this reform come soon,
The East side municipality is in
debt some fifteen thousand dollars
already, with an annual expenditure
in excess of her income. On the
two items of water and electric
lights, the expense is about So, 1000
per annum. Then the cost of po-
lice and city clerk is about 50, 500
more. AS the mills city tax only
brings in about $4,000 year, it is
seen at once that we are falling be-
hind 1900 per annum, without
spending a cent for street or side
walk Improvement.
The West side municipality is also
in a bad fix financially. She owes
several thousand dollars of old out
standing city scrip, water debt of
several thousand more Gf the courts
decide against her) and the animal
interest on her 100000 bonded in
debtedness for the new city hall and
public school building, is 50, 400 cleo
trio lights and pay of city officers
about $4,000, and water rent in a
law suit She cannot now meet her
present obligations AS her income
is something like $4,000, and has a
firm hand at the helm in her chief
executive chair, she will likely
come out all right in the end.
But there is no questioning the
fact that it will require good man
agement to pull through the mire
and financial troubles we are now
in.
Our city council on the East side,
should at once tackle this vital
question and settle it. Expendi-
lures must be cut down somehow,
and at once, We can do without
so many electric lights in the SUI
burbs, and the expense on this one
item should be cut half intwo. Water
rents ought also to be cut down. 1t
is a case Of life and death to the
city as a municipality, Let us at
once come down to bedrock, and
live within our income,
