Stable boss Marshal, of the stree
car company, has several low anC
some very high joints in the tract
which should be looked after. There
will be a heavy traffic on the rOaC

Ft. Lynn tomorrow, and give
write up of all in our Sunday morn

Three hundred and forty-si2
tickets were sold out of this place
this morning over the Port Arthur
route for Galveston. This mean;
an expenditure of 81 ,211 for rail
road fare alone, and this quadruple(

Judge James Moore, of Morriss
is here visiting his mother
Mrs. W. E. Estes. The Judge was {
of the last Texas Legisla
ture, and did some valuable work
for Texarkana in the way of getting
the bill for the Separate court
through to It's passage, and Texar
kama has the kindliest feelings fol
him.
One of Texarkana's most pro
minent and worthy young. men vii
become a benedict on the 15tE
inst. will capture beautiful ant
winsome bride about thirty-fvt
miles west of Texarkana. We will
give no names now-but our frienC
knows he has our very best wishes
in the wise and very proper step ht
is taking.
We have a prospect, and a goo(
one too of having an electric rail
road in our city before fall. Th'
couucil will be asked for fra alchiSt
soon, and work will begin. We dc
not know what streets it will ask fo'
but we learn the Chic Springs viii
form the terminus on the north
We hope this is no idle rumor thii
time, but a reality.
Broad street crossings on the
East side should be treated like
those on the West side-with tiling
When once down there will be nc
need to renew them every sb
The piping is as cheap az
the planks and much easier placed
We ask the council to 90 over ii
Texas and see those crossings there
and make inquiry about them.
The old ex-Confederates are hav
ing big, large time at Richmond
Virginia, in their annual meeting
We read of their doings until W.
ran across where General Gordol
imprinted a reverential kiss upol
the krow of Mrs. Jefferson Davis
and at this critical point the "wint
blew the paper from our hand ant
we lost the balance of this descrip
tive scene.
