SIGNS OFPBOQBESS
If it be true and it is not disputed
says a well known writer in an exchange
that good men are known by their works
It would seem to bo similarly true that
religious bodies should be known by their
churches In these days a good deal u
said and written about the church grow
ing cold and the world growing indiffer-
ent to religion All of which is easy to
say and write As one swallow does not
make summer so a single fact does not
always disprove a general statement
but the fact put on record by a writer
In a recent number of Harpers
Weekly that since January 18SS
tho enormous sum in round num-
bers of 5000000 hns been
d
spent In the city of New York in the
erection of ohnrches seems to go far
toward disproving the frequent giving
out 0t those whose Wish Is aDDBrently
father to the thought that in the United
States religions doubt is superseding
faith New York Is not so truly a repre-
sentative American city as either of sev-
eral others wbloh might be named
More than any other It Is a foreign city
suggesting largely alien thought in re-
ligion as In all that Is opposed to religl6n
and if its people contribute in less than
two years nearly 3000000 to the ereo
tlon of ohnrohes there Is reason to be-
lieve that the church isnot growing cold
and that Indifference to religion Is not
becoming common If in New York
where the social conditions are not so fa-
vorable to tho development of religioug
sentiment as it is in some Other cities of
the United States sacred tomples riso so
rapidly it is rather more likely than not
that the warmth of tho church is grow
ng more fervid and the interest of
the people of the country more earnest
Since the beginning of 1SS8 In New York
city alone the Episcopal church has
spent it is estimated 1485000 the
Roman Catholio Si 124000 the Presby-
terian 8180000 and tho Methodist 275
000 npon cburoh edifices Such activity
indicates the growth of religious faith
not of doubt The different religious
bodies are not active oitber in New York
or elsewhere only in building ohurobes
In their mission work at homo and
abroad they are moving with extraordi-
nary energy which they are enabled to
do by vast revenues contributed by their
members whose liberality proves the
sincerity of their belief The vitality of
the churches all over tho country Is conr
5picuousiy shown by the work they are
doing apart from tho font and altar and
pulpit They aro not standing idle
wniting for tho people to come to them
they nro going down among the people
Into tbe highways and byways bringing
tbem to the church or to tho church
schools or guilds or clubs There never
was a time when the onurohes exhibited
the interest and warmth they are show-
ing now not only for the spiritual but
for the physical welfare of men and
women and though the world is not so
good as It should be It does not grow
worse for lack of energy on tho part Of
the churches

John Howard now has on exhibition at
the immigration headquarters two tine
advertising figures made of native prod-
ucts of this county One Is the man with
the hoe and the other the red man of tbe
forest Both are life size and look quite
natural The pantaloons and shirt of tho
former are made of ryo and tbe vest of
sorghum seed He wears a straw hat
ana has a long flowing white beard made
of corn shucks In his richt hand
standing upon Its end is a hoe handle
which ho grips with a hand encased
in a tan kid glove It is not
every farmer who wears kid
gloves of course but the farmers
of this county raise as high as forty
bushols of wheat to tho acre and get 1 a
bushel for it and ot course can afford
tbem The Indian Is also well made up
is jleoked out a la Comanohe with a
flaming headgear of feathers and red
and wearing various trinkets and a
blanket that would turn tho heart of any
chief green with envy The Indian is
placarded Iwashereln 1830 while
the man with the hoe informs the passer-
by I am here to stay now The de-
signs are beautifully gotten up and are
the work of the ladles of Wichita Falls
If the men of the city could boast one
half the energy that has inspired the
ladles In thla work we could make Wich-
ita Falls a second Fort Worth in a very
short while All honor to the ladies

while the frontage is the same All new
additions to tbe city are platted in this
way which permits a man to own a lot
large enough to bold his hCuse at a very
low price while those who can afford
it can own two three or more lots as
they choose j
-The sale of the first addition was a very
popular and successful one over 500 lots
being subscribed for in sixty days 433 of
wfiich were paid for promptly and the
balance taken by people who for one
reason or another were careless about
making their payments to seoure same
were withdrawn from sale Bnyers of
lots In tho first addition are now offered
a handsome advance on their holdings
Buyers in tho second addition now on
sale are sure to make money on this pur-
chase while those who draw lots which
have houses on will receive 51100 In- one
case and from 600 to 750 in other cases
on an investment ot 100 payable 10 a

The Houston aud Texas Cor tral railroad
are at this writing building a 100 foot
depot platform preparatory to a com-
modious and attractive
MODERN SUBURBAN DEPOT
for passengers A train each way Is now
run morning and night whioh lands pas-
sengers to and from In fifteen minutes
Arrangements are completed by the rail-
road company to put on a special train on
October 1 for this service alone
This train will carry passengers to the
city in eleven minutes nt a
UNITORM FARE OF FIVE CENTS
and will stnrt at a proper time in the
morning to land passengers ot their work
at 7 oclock
Every hour during the day and even-
ing this train will run for the accommo-
dation ot passongers nnd tho service will
boqulokeraud much more pleasant than
street cars at the same price
A LARGE FAT En MILL
will be looated adjoining this property in
tbe fall and other factories are to follow
as fast as practicable
LET IT BE UNDERSTOOD
that this property Is put on the mnrkot a
a prlco that is within the reach of em
ployes clerks etc oto who cannot
afford to put their all Into a lot When
city lots reach the price they are at pres-
ent from 750 to 3000 it dlsoourages
the man of moderate circumstances from
owning bis own home
On Alnmosa Heights the land is the
most bcautifal and highest about tbe
city
The nlr is pure and about twenty de-
grees cooler in summer than in the city
The convenience In getting to nnd from
tbe oity is greater than from any other
part
Tbo cost is the same as street car fare
and he time consumed In transit only
about half as long as the average Ths
lots are so low in price and on such easy
terms that no one feels tho outlay while
tho lucky ones who draw houses on their
lots will have a nice home paid for this
fall nnd never miss the money

The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette makes
some ttaely and sensible remarks concerning
libel suits against newspapers which we re-
produce with hearty isdorsementi
Within the past week two libel suts have been
tried in our local courts one against tho Times
Star and the Other against the Pott In each
casoa verdict was rendered for S5JJ damiscs
In the case of the Pose ths plaintiff admitted on
the stand that he had gone to Judge M F
Wilson and aaVed him to take bis case against
the Post and he would give him onehalf of
what damages he received but it is to the
credit of Judge Wilson that he refused it as
any lawyer in Cincinnati ahoald do under elm-
liar circumstances HO innuer tesuuen iuji uj
went to other lawyers with the samo result
bat finally secured a lawyer In Newportto take
the case on a similar basis We do not care to
discuss the merits of the case but the evidence
did not warrant any such verdict aud a new
trial will be asked tor
In the case of tho Times Star It has asked
that the verdict be set aside on the ground that
one of the Jurors was In collusion wia me
plaintff and has filed a petition In court
claiming that it can prove the same to be true
A reputable newspaper Is as careful of what it
prints as a reputable mm is ot what ho tells his
neighbor Men make mistakes at times and so
