The delegates to the City Federation
were called together Tuesday morning
by the President, Mrs. R. H. Garrison,
for an early session. A number of im-
portant matters wene discussed, and
the Pure Food and Civic Improvement
committees notified to begin an in-
spection trip at once, to see Just the
state of Denton's preparedness for the
coming visit of Dr. Carrick.
After the meeting, which was very
enthusiastic and hopeful, Mrs. Garri-
son and Mrs. Allen, president of the
Ariel Club, went to the jail on a visit
of inspection.
They were instructed to confer with
County Judge Hoskins, who was at th?
time busy in County court. The ladies
had previously decided that they would
take upon themselves the expense of
having the Jail walls whitewashed,
and wished to get the permission and
co-operation of Judge S. H. Hoskins, of
both of which they were confident, it
being a matter of formality only.

That the situation in Mexico is daily
going from bad to worse, that the
revolutionists are increasing every day
until nearly every state in the Repub-
lic is “infested” with them and that
San Luis Potosi is cut off from nearly
all communication with the outside
world is the tenor of a letter which
John W. Bailey, now with tris family
in Denton, received Tuesday. The let-
ter is from his factors, A. S. Sharpton
A Co., and is dated, at San Luis Po-
tosi, October 23rd. The letter goes on
to say:
“Referring to your letter of the 24th
ult., we beg to say that since its re-
ceipt the line between here and Tam-
pico has been out of commission, con-
sequently we have not as yet received
the two boxes of grape fruit that you
instructed D. Guillermo Guxman of
San Dteguito to ship to us, and from
the outlook the two boxes will do us
for a couple of months, as nearly all
the people that buy it have left the
city. However, we will do the best wc
can for him.
“The situation does not seem to im-
prove any, on the contrary, it is get-
ting worse, the revolutionists are in-
creasing every day, and nearly every
state in the Republic is- infested with
them. We have no communication
with the north nor Tampico, and on
the other side only to Zacatecas.
“The insurance companies have dis-
continued issuing policies to insure
freight in transit against war, and as
the rebels very seldom let a train come
through, it is hard to bring any goods
from anywhere, nor can we ship any
out.
“The piloncillo did not keep as long
as we thought, and it suddenly began
to run, we suppose on account of the
dampness as the result of the hard and
consecutive rains we have had for the
last two months, and as there is no
hopes of the lines to be open to Tor-
reon, nor the market here in town to
offer a better price for it, we thought
It best to sell it, and under the present
circumstances the best offer we obtain-
ed was 815.00 per carga. It broke our
hearts to sell It for that price, as it
was our best desire to make a good,
showing with you, but everything just
happened reverse to our wishes, and
the only relief we find is that we tried
and did our very best."
The line between Tampico and San
Luis, reported cut, is the most import-
ant commercial line in the Republic,
carrying the fuel oil from the great
Tampico fields not only for the rail-
way lines, but for all the large manu-
facturing. The cutting of this line also
prevents the moving of troops from
the capital to the north where they are
so badly needed at present. The pilon-
cillo referred to is low grade sugar,
and in normal times the price would
have been around 830 per carga of
about 400 pounds. ,

“Does he understand the arrange-

“No. not yet” Mary admitted, with-

Garson was intently considering an-
other phase of the situation, one sug-
gested perhaps out of bis own deeper
sentiments.
“He must think a lot of you.** be said
gravely. “Don’t he?" ,7
"1—1 suppose so."
Garson spoke .very softly, but with
, an Intensity that left no dofabt as to
the honesty of his purpose.
"I’d say throw up the whole game
and go to him. If you really care.”
There fell a tense silence. It was
broken by Mary. '

CHAPTER IX.
A Bridegroom Spurned.
’OU know-Aggie toid
that Cassidy was up here j
• from headquarters. He didn’t
put a name to it, but I’m on.”
It was Garson speaking. Mary regard-
ed him Inquiringly, and he continued,
putting the fact with a certain brutal
bluntness after the habit of his class. |
“I guess you’ll have to quit seeing
young Gilder. The bulls are wise His
father baa made a holler.”
“Don’t let that worry you. Joe.” she
said tranquilly. She allowed a few .
seconds go by. then added as If quite
indifferent "I was married to Diek G<1- 1
der this morning.” There came a ,
squeal of amazement from Aggie, a
start of incredulity from Garson. - I
"Yes,” Mary repeated evenly. ”1 was
married to him thia morning. That
was my Important engagement.” she
added with a smile toward Aggie \ i
Aggie sat erect her baby face alive
with worldly glee. |
“Oh, gee. what luck!” she exclaim-,
ed noisily. "Why, he’s a king fish, he
ta. Gee. but I’m glad you landed him!” |
"Thank you.” Mary said with a smile
that was the result of her sense of hu-
mor rather than from any tenderness. |
It was then that Garson spoke. He
put a question of vital significance.
“Do you love him?"
The question caught Mary all unpre-
pared, but she retained her self con-
trol sufficiently to make her answer In
a voice that to the ordinary ear would :
have revealed no least tremor.
“No,” she said. She offered no ex-
planation. no excuse; merely stated the
fact In all Its finality.
"Then you won’t leave us?” Garson
asked. “We’re going on as we wert«a
before?" The hint of dejection In hi*
manner had vanished. "And you won’t
live with him?”
"Live with him?” Mary exclaimed
emphatically. "Certainly not!”
Garson was still patient In his deter-
mination to apprehend just what had

the money again toward the girl and
crowded it into the half reluctant, half
greedy hand. “Take it. and get out”
The contempt in her voice rang ettil
sharper. “Go. before I change. my
mind!”
The girl needed no second bidding.
-With the money still clutched in her
hand she went forth swiftly, stumbling
a little in her haste, fearful lest at-the
last moment the woman she bad so
wronged should change In mood and
take back the money. t
Freed from the miasma of that pres-
ence, Mary remained motionless for a
long minute, then sighed from her tor-
tured heart.
“A girl I didn't know/’ she said be-
wllderedly, "perhaps had never spoken
to—who smashed my life like that!

crime had ruined her life with an ex-

Aggie took advantage of the pause.
Her voice was acid. "Some people are
sneaks—just sneaks!”
Somehow the speech wae welcome
to the girl, gave her a touch of cour-
age sufficient for cowardly protests
tions. It wae more like the abuse that
was familiar to. her. A gush of tears

The telephone rang, and Mary ex-

out of the room Griggs turned to Gar-
son anxiously.
"It’s a cinch, Joe," be pleaded. "I’ve
got a plan of the house.” He drew s

(From address of County Supt. Mc-
Cook of Denton County, delivered be-
fore Texas Conference for Education
at Dallas.)
Joel J. McCook, superintendent of the
Denton County schools, Denton, next
read a paper upon the topic of the de-
velopment of high schools and the re-
moval of the 50c Unfit in local taxa-
tion for school purposes. He took the
stand that larger units of territory for
taxable purposes, derived from the es-
tablishment of rural high schools, will
prove of inestimable value to the rural
districts. He said the County Super-
intendent had it in his power to do
much toward convincing the residents
of the country districts of the advis-

that there was always more or less dis-
satisfaction and difficulty experienced
in locating a rural high school and sug-
gested that it might be a good idea to
give the County Board more jurisdic-
tion and to pay them a per diem rate
when meetings are held In the interest
of schools in their districts. Some!
counties, he arid, were following out
this course, but others do not pay!
