POINTS WORTH REMEMBER-
ING ABOUT YOUR EYES.
Do not use protecting glasses a-
gainst strong light,except you are un-
able to evade the strong light entirely;
it is much better to evade the strong
light; if, however, you must use pro-
tecting glasses, do not use green, blue
or yellow glasses, but use glasses call-
ed Smoked glasses, and make it a rule
to use the Ligltest smoked glasses
that will be convenient, and have
their magnifying power as weak as
possible to wear easy—avoiding at all
times the cupped, (concavo-convex)
glasses, which are especially injurious
to the eye.
Do not be persuaded by an optician
to wear so-called tinted glasses, the
most common tints worn being ruby
and sapphire. Do not risk buying
your glasses like you would buy oth-
er articles, but get a physician that
has made a special study of the eye to
examine your eyes and give you a
prescription for them. Consider that
you have but two eyes, and that you
would not like to lose either one.
There are about five hundred strengths
of lenses made and they may be com-
bined and ground together in a thous-
and ways. The best stocked stores
hardly ever keep more than fifty
strengths of lenses,you can readily see
that even the best fitting glasses these
stores have may be wrong.
Eye glasses are often ground from
cheap glass, some from green glass;
many have flows in them and some
are not ground at all, but moulded.
To fit glasses satisfatorily the frame
should be adjusted as carfully as the
lenses.
Again, remember that the best fit-
ting glasses cannot keep your eyes
in good condition, if you Persist in
Doing More Work with Your Eyes
than your body can stand. Your
eyes need rest as much as your arms
or entire muscular system. Many
whose eyes are normal, have blurred
visions after prolonged use; this can
be corrected almost entirely by glas-
ses, a glass that will assist the eye to
do the same work with more ease.
Then again there are sometimes eye
troubles caused by impairment in gen-
eral health and can be relieved only
by medical treatment.
Any style of frame furnished desired
also any size of eye. Those having
frames and require only a change of
lenses can be fitted with little ex-
pense. Satisfactian guaranteed.

Killing at Ladonia.
Just before going to press news
of a sensational shooting at La-
donia yesterday at 10 o'clock ar-
rived wherein Ed Kilgore lost his
life. From what I could learn of
the affair it seems that Kilgore
had often circulated slanderous
reports about Miss Fannie Jack-
son, an estimable lady of that
city, that so exasperated herself
and family that they could no
longer endure the restraint im-
posed on themselves for years so
arming themselves they hunted
him up, and finding him yester-
day near the S. L. Erwin & Co.
store, they opened fire, Miss Fan-
nie firing the first shot, immedi-
ately followed by a fusillade by
herself and brothers. It is re-
ported there were ten bullet holes
in his body when examined.
Brode Jackson, brother of Miss
Fannie, received a scalp wound
made by a bullet, but in what
manner is not known. Not being
in possession of all the facts lead-
ing up to this tragedy the Signal
forbears making any comments
at the present time.
Picnic.
There will be a Sunday School
and League picnic at White Rock,
3 miles south of Petty, July 17th,
1897. Come and bring well-filled
baskets. There will be enter-
tainment for the day by distin-
guished gentlemen on the line of
Sunday Schools, Leagues and
education. The grounds will be
let at the church on July 10th,
from one to three o'clock, p. m.
The proceeds will be used for
church purposes.

Bonham, Fannin Co., Texas,
June 12.—Some time last night
Wallace Geatt, who has been con-
fined in the jail charged with
criminal assault on a 10-year-old
girl; Herbert Bowlen, charged
witn burglary, and Will Rich-
ards, charged with a misdemean-
or, sawed the bars out of one of
the jail windows and made good
their escape. They were confin-
ed in the big room in the lower
story of the jail called the hospit-
al room. So far they have not
been captured.

Com.
I recently found on the ex-
change table a paper headed in
plain letters, "The Crescent,"and
was startled into the exclamation
of Corny Delaney "Oh, the hay-
thins, the Turks!" but on closer
inspection found it to be the new
paper started here by Messrs.
Dailey & Ballew. Mr. Dailey is
an exemplary young man, born
and reared here, and is devotedly
attached to his chosen profession,
"the art preservative." Mr. Bal-
lew has been a popular citizen of
our town for the past twenty
years, and has a wide acquaint-
ance with the people of Texas, as
he has for years been a member
of that genial fraternity known
as "commercial angels." The
Signal extends congratulations
for the liberal support accorded
the Crescent by the broad gauged
business men of the town, and
wishes it the greatest success.

Ardmore, I. T., June 15.—Be-
fore the hour set for opening
court this morning every availa-
ble inch of space in the federal
court building was occupied by a
crowd eager to catch each word
of the examining trial of Clarence
B. Duglas, charged with the
murder of James Williams, late
editor of the Ardmore Cronicle.
Probably 250 ladies occupied
seats within the railing.
Shortly after 9 o'clock a. m.„
the prisoner, clad in a blue suit,
was brought from the jail and
given a seat beside his attorneys.
Two of his brothers, Frank and
Ash, sat by him. His wife was
not present during the trial. His
features were somewhat pallid
and show plainly that the con-
finement of but a week is already
beginning to tell. He was an
attentive listener to details of the
killing, as it fell from the lips of
the witnesses and occasionally
would hold whispering consulta-
tions with his attorneys.
Twenty witnesses were ex-
amined, all of whom, with one
exception, corroborated each
other as to the main facts of the
killing. After hearing the testi-
mony Judge Walcott remanded
the prisoner to jail without benefit
of bail. It is learned habeas
corpus proceedings will not be
instituted, at least not until the
grand jury investigates the case.
A number of Dentonites were in
attendance at the trial.—Dallas

He was struck by ihe apron of
