One of our earliest citizens, Ike Furber,
proprietor in 1873 of what was then
known as the Furber house, on Rusk
avenue, and one of the most popular
hotels in the city, has returned to Den
ison after an absence of eighteen months
or longer in Kansas. We have not had
the pleasure of meeting Mr. Furber since
his return, but understand he thinks of
again locating in Denison and engaging
in the hotel business.

We see by the Register that Capt. J. C.
Meader, one of the most enterprising cit-
izens in Sherman, is contemplating the
erection of water works in that city to
supply the entire city with excellent
water. Capt. Meader’s plan is to get a
supply of water from wcllssunk near the
Central railroad track, lie asks that the
city subscribe for enough to supply the
lire department with an abundant supply
of water, lie will lay his plan before the
city council at the next meeting,

It was a very cool performance on the
part of Mitchell Wednesday night, to say
the least, his putting in a claim against
the city for fees for making arrests when
the parties were unable to pay either fine
or costs, and worked out the same on the
streets, and it is remarkable that he let
these claims run along and accumulate
lor nearly three years before he said any-
thing about them. It looks very much as
though the bill was brought in at this
lute day in a revengeful spirit, because
the council removed him from the police
force.
If a policeman can hold the city for his
dollar of costs under such circumstances,
hasn’t the mayor as good a right to put
in a bill for his fees and the marshal a
bill for his? But such a claim is ridicu-
lous, and it is is clear the council took
this view ot it when they indefinitely
postponed action on it by a unanimous
vote.

Earnest appeals continue to be made

l there is nothing to indicate any of
them heed the appeal. Owing to want
of funds the edifice has not been built and

A number of our merchants express 2
desire that the council pass the Sunday
oijlinance. We believe the State law re-
quires business houses to close from 9 a.
in. tog p. tn. on Sundays. An ordinance
in accordance with this law would proba-
bly give more general satisfaction.

Wanted.
Constable Spence arrested a young
man named Jones on our streets Wednes-
day charged with horse stealing and bur-
glary.
At a small neighborhood, on Red Riv-
er, in Fannin county, last Sunday, there
was a baptism, and nearly every one left
their residences and went to the river to
witness the ceremony. Young Jones
availed himself of the opportunity to
break into five different houses. From
one he took $6 45 in specie and $2 70 in
currency, from another $26 in currency
and a thirteen dollar order. From other
residences he took articles of value includ-
ing several pairs of shoes. Monday night
he stole a saddle and the next night a
horse. A negro recognized the horse
when Jones rode him into Denison, which
led to his arrest. Jones changed off his
specie in one of our merchantile houses
for currency, and the hitter was found se-
creted in his boots. After this discovery
he confessed to the theft and said the ar-
ticles taken were secreted near the rail-
road, but refused to point out the locality.
The horse and saddle were recovered.
The officers started with Jones for Fannin
county Thursday forenoon, going horse-
back.

Public School.
The examination of applicants for
positions as teachers in the public schools
began yesterday morning at the school
house under the supervision of Professor
Summerville, (the Superintendent elect
for the next session), and was well at-
tended. The following teachers applied
for examination : Mrs. Schellenberger,
Brown, Ingcrton, Purdham, Marsh, Sibly
and the Misses Cornells, Legate, An-
drews, Ward, Steadmen, Davis and
Martin, also Clara Williams (colored).
The examination consisted of geogra-
phy, arithmetic, history, grammar, etc.,
and was the most thorough ever held in
the city. It certainly reflected great
credit upon the new superintendent and
the school board.
For want of space we are unable to
publish the questions propounded at the
examination, as we would wish to, but
will say they were well selected and
would puzzle any one but those well
versed in each particular branch.
We will publish the names of the suc-
cessful applicants as soon as received,
which will be about Saturday.
For a cocktail and French wine punch
go to Raynal, kmg of cocktails, at the
California Saloon. augS-3t

Dyspepsia.
Americans are particularly subject to
this disease and its effects; such as sour
stomach, sick headache, habitual costive-
ness, heart burn, Water brash, coming up
of the food, coated tongue, disagreeable
taste in the mouth, palpitation of the
heart and all diseases of Ihe stomach and
liver. Two doses of Green’s August
Flower will relieve you at once, and
there positively is not a case in the Uni-
ted States it will not cure. If you doubt
this, go to your druggist, McKoight A:
Co., Denison, Texas, and get a samller
bottle for 10 cents and try it. Regular
size 75 cent6.

dollars, which he proposes to dispose of
at a raffle at only forty dollars—twenty
tickets at $2 each. The clock, which is a

ornament in a dwelling or business house,
may be seen at the “Senate” saloon. The
raffle will probably take place next Satur-

Promise and Performance.
A great deal of sickness is caused by
allowing the bowels to become irregular
and constipated, these and a multitude of
other evils that necessarily follow can be
prevented by using Sherman’s Prickly
Ash Bitters. If your liver, blood or bow-
els a-e out of order go at once to Ache-
son’s drug score and get a bottle. No
spirits are used in their composition ex-
cept a pure article ot Holland gin. A
nicer, milder, or more pleasant purgative
you never saw. Regular size $1, sample
bottle for 25 cents, half of which will give
you a thorough and pleasant action on
the bowels. apr2.5tf

famous tonic and regulating elixir which
it will not perform. No pretensions ir-

made in reference to it, but evidence of

general corrective, and specially valuable
