Notes.
Rev. R. P. MoElreath was in this
morning, to send the Journal to his
son down at Rule. He said the first
' Sunday in February he and Rev. Bas-
| com Thomas will administer the sac-
rament of the i,ord's supper at John-
son Station for Rev. Mr. Cleveland;
the Presbyterian pastor, who is not
yet ordained. ‘
Mr. McElreath said he bad about
20oo pounds of good cotton yet to
pick, and the. fifteen-cent figure
tickled him immensely
He also said that Mr. Lambert, of
the Station,-said.he had raised about
half a bale to the acre on land he
first planted corn on. This, Brother
McElreath said vendicated the posi-
tion taken all along by the Journal.
The concussion of the shots hurt Mr.
Tawater's head very badly, and he
was laid up Wednesday in great pain.
There is no clue to- the woul<i-be
burglars.
<ier is that reason does not give way
under the strain, and the fired sotjl..
give up the fight. Surely this a case
where human sympathy and human
loVe should find expression. If such
tragedies are not given as ail oppor-
tunity for the manifestation of Chris-
tian w'rfut.'s, surely, th.uj. are, 4T.p"l
beyond expression. I often 'grow
sadly serious when such incidents
so -close to my .home are brought to
my attention, and I am never fully
satisfied that such conditions are just
exactly right, unless it i« necessary
that some must sufffer that others
may be Induced to open their hearts
in tenderness, and join their tears
witjr the tears of the one who has
tasted of the cup of woe to the last
bitter dfefcs, and out of it all comes
a higher and a sweeter as^ration.

Beginning February 4th, the Jour-
nal will start a new story. It is all
aliout Texas—and a stirring period
at that. The story was first pub-
a leading periodical some
years ago as a serial, and attracted
wide attention and much favoralrie
criticism Ixecause of its historical
facts woven into story-fot'm, and be-
ing the first story of Texas by a Tex-
an dealing Axitli tlie /stirring and
tragic times just Itefore and directly
after, the x lose of the Civil War. and
also dealing with that most faithful
of all men, the old-time negro of the
Southern plantation days. A strange
incident of this story is that it was
written and sent to the |M*rio<lical
that used it eight months before the
historical "Lucas gush’er" spouted
up oil at Spindle Tip that memorable
day of January Hi, 1901—yet the
author graphically descrilted the dis-
covery of oil in Southeast Texas,
light in the Beauimmt country, in
this story written thus months Ite-
