HOT STUFF.
Warm Weather and Spirited Discus
siOns Now the Features of the Day.

Warm Weather and Spirited Discus
siOns Now the Features of the Day.
There are several red hot things just
now that make themselves felt on the COM
munity. The weather claims first place as
it is spoken of more frequently and forci-
bly, impressed on everybody. The politi-
clans find the atmosphere growing warm
er every day; property owners on South
Broad street are warming up on the paw
ing question. The Military Interstate AS
sociation are hot over the Galveston cham
pionship cup; the Southern Land League
are boiling over the opening of streets,
and, in fact, things are generally hot all
around the town-bicyclists included.
The coolest and most agreeable place in
the city is ii. Logan'S refrigera tors. There
everything is kept cool and fresh. HIS
large stock of beef, spring lamb, poultry,
smelt, salmon and other delicacies is kept
in perfect condition. Orders are promptly
filled and the goods delivered at anytime
required by the purchaser. 1t is a fact
worth noting that Logan sells the very
best of everything. His prices are as low
as any market in the land, and his cheap
er class of meats is decidedly finer than
the poor, tough stuff that some others try
10 palm of on the public.-ad.
