With our three daily trains from

we can give you a trip that for speed,

Our trains invariably leave on time,

of what you want to eat, prepared by
experienced chefs and daintily served

Our trains run through to St. Louis

their aerobatic work were quite as
clever as the most exacting could pos-

Campus Improvements.
A number of improvements are being
made constantly in the University
buildings and on the University
grounds. The engineering building is
going up rapidly, and will make a
magnificent addition to the equipment
of the University. Recently a on-
tract was let to a Chicago firm for the
erectin of a 812.000 stand pipe on
the University campus. The city wa-
ter pressure is at times so low that
the University has to suffer great in-
convenience therefrom and would. in
case of fire in any of the buildings,
be at the mercy of the flames.

J. L. Stephenson Will Run in Twenty-
Eighth District.
J. L. Stephenson, a leading citizen
of Abilene, and who is in the city on
business, has declared his Intention of
running for state senator from his dis-
trict. From what can be learned, there
are about half a dozen other citizens
of that section of the state who have
signified their intention of running
for this office. Mr. Stephenson is well
known in this city, having been a clerk
in the senate.
Rev. Dr. Paine, at the University of
Kansas, was a visitor at the Univer
sity today, and made an informal talk
to the members of the senior law class.
His mission in this city Is to look
over the field with a view to estab-
lishing a bible school somewhere near
the University.
It is understood that an endowment
of 810,000 or more will be forthcoming
if his report is favorable. It is also
understood that lots near the Univer-
sity have been secured for the neces-
sary building.
INER-COLLEGIATE DEBATES.
Will Discuss Trades Unions With Mis-
souri and Tulane.
Two debates will be held this spring
with other universities, one with Tu-
lane, the other with the University of
Missouri. The debate with Missouri
will be the first ever held with that
institution. The question selected for
both debates is the same, namely:
“Resolved that the History of Trades
Unions in the United States During
the Last Twenty Years Shows a Ten-
dency Detrimental to the General
Welfare.” . ,
In the debate with Tulane, the Uni-
versity of Texas will take the affirma-
tive; in the debate with Missouri,
probably the negative. One practical
benefit of such a selection of sides will
be that the University will have a
strong team of each side for practice.
Messrs. J. P. Luton and T. H. Milliken
will represent the University in the
Tulane debate and Messrs W. H.
Walne and E P. Locke in the Mis-
souri debate.

Prather has recently issued a circular,
containing full information with re-

Palestine. Tex., Feb. 6.—Dan Cren-
shaw and Dan Peavy, arrested for the
killing of Sam Biggerstaff, near Elk-
hart. have admitted the killing, but
claim self defense. They will have a
hearing before Justice Kennedy at
Elkhart February 15.
It is claimed that in the ’northern
part of HoustonAourty is a Secret
order whose chief business it is to pro-
tect illicit distilling and the men who
operate the stills, and to each man
is administered an oath of death to
seal their lips.
Biggerstaff, it is claimed, was a
member of that organization and the
theory is that Biggerstaff had threat-
ened exposure. It is claimed Bigger-
staff was the chief of the organization
for a while and had administered the
oath to other members.

World’s Fair. March 1904.
Mr. John C. Weber, director of Web-
er’s Military band of Cincinnati, known
as the. “Prize Band of America," has
composed the St. Louis World's Fair
March 1904—and dedicated it to the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition. It
will be distributed through the passen-
ger department of the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern railroad, world’s
fair route, at 10 cents per copy.
The music is in sheet form, arranged
for the piano, being very handsomely
gotten up, with highly illuminated title
cover. Mr. John C. Weber is not only
a great musical director, but he has
written some very catchy and popular
marches. The St. Louis World’s Fair
March is his latest success, and will
add further to his fame.
Mr. Weber and his great organiza-
tion of artists have twice defeated all
corners in national contests at Elks’
reunions. The latest triumph was at
Baltimore, Md., on the 21st of last July,
when, in a notable contest, composed
of the leading bands of America, won.
the first prize of 31000. It is confidently
expected that Mr. Weber’s World s
Fair March will become a popular air
during the next year, and every house-
hold should have a copy of this music.
Send 10 cents in silver to the under-
signed and copy of the World’s Fair
March will be mailed to your address.
Mark envelope — “World’s Fair
March.”
Mention this paper when ordering.
