pleased with the coffee that he drank
four cups; Mr. and Mrs. James T. Tay-

Union City, Dec. 1.—The grand jury
investigating the recent night rider
raids in the Reelfoot lake vicinity de-
voted today to bearing concluding evi-
dence upon which it is stated sixty-
nine indictments will be returned to-
morrow. The most Important witness
was Frank Fehringer, the self-con-

more of the details in connection with
the killing of Captain Rankin at Wal-

authorities to move the prisoners now
held in Nashville to this county within
the next several days and Immediately
on their arrival they will be arraigned
on indictments charging night riding.
Before tne end of the week, according
to the statement of the attorney gen-

the desirability of this consummation, I
in the last session of congress, but only
talk. Mr. Gardner, who has some rep-
utation for agressive action. has
avowed himself a rules reformer, and
that is the most important develop-
meet of the entire Tart-Cannon situa-
tion. a
Mr Gardner was an ardent Tait
boomer early in the game, and in the
Sixty-first congress as a leading ad- i
ministration man his attitude should
be exceptionally persuasive. He has
already shown that he is not afraid
to speak out and be quoted, even to
Prohibitionists Will Furnish I the extent of saying he will not decide
how to vote on the speakersnip until
hr knew the names of the candidates.
Mr Gardner represents fairly well the
view of the opposition to1 the pres-
ent rules in this statement which he has
s? ape, j F. Threadwell, inspertor
nessed anything like it before, he sug-
gested that it might be someone send-
ing up miniature balloons, tied to-
gether, with candles inside similar to
the fireworks celebration at Christmas
time and Fourth of July. The lights
are too large to substantiate this the-
ory and move with more ranidity than
anything of that kind.
The airship hypothesis received a
boost when a communication addressed
to The Record was received last night
contradicting The Record’s statement in
Tuesday’s issue that Fort Worth had no
airship inventors. The article .states
that there is an airship in the city and
that the plans and specifications ’for a
new model will soon be patented at
Washington by two Fort Worth boys
who will compete with the most promi-
nent aeronauts of the werld. The great-
limmering light seemed to sway
ward and forward like the shim-
r.umber of state officers of the organ-
ization, a good delegation of represen-
tatives and eenators from the state
legislature, and all of the county’s pro-
hibition leaders are expected to attend.
In ethe report of the committee on
organisation it was shown that there
were now live prohibition clubs in
more than three-fourths of the voting
precincts in this county.
Sterling P Strong, chafrman of the
Anti-Saloon Ieague of Texas; B. Q.
Evans of Greenville and Mr. Hunt, a
state speaker of the Anti-Saloon league,
were present at last night's meeting,
and Mr. Evans was inivited to address j
the body at a future date.
Gingerbread and rider.
Mrs. C. W. Childress presided over the
autumn booth and she was assisted by
Mmes. E. D. Canns, C. I. Dickinson, Hal
Medlin and C. Haven Ladd, while here
beneath the vine-covered bower, two
cider girls—Misses Hazel Walker and
Carrie Shugart—served this delightfu:
drink with home-made gingerbread. A
huge pumpkin formed a cornucopia of
good things for the children.
The huge enow bell, which formed
one of the main attractions in the
winter quarters, was in charge of Mrs.
A. P. Foute, while A’berta and Valletta
Foute played the role of Jack Frost
successfully as they disposed of the
claims for grabs. Mrs. Foute was fur-
ther assisted bv Mrs. Sam Gladney and
Misses Joe Nicks and Jane Foute. At
the tea table Mrs. Morris Burney and
Mrs. R I. Van Zandt served coffee
and chocolate, while at the doll counter
Mrs. J. L Cooper and Mrs. J. J Par-
ker supplied the demands in this trade,
while Mrs. E. K. Collett, assist 'd bv
Mmes. Marshall Spoon ts and Harry
Wynne and Misses Labatt and Ste-
phens catered to the wishes of those
who were in the market for doll ac-
cessories.
The sales were very successful during
the day. numerous lunches were served
at the two lunching periods, and. ev-
erything considered, the day passea
very satisfactorily. The most encour-
aging thing of the whole day was the
enthusiasm manifested by the chil-
dren. They were completely captivated
by the attractions that had been pro-
vided for them, and the women found
difficulty in supplying their wants.
Three souvenirs were awarded dur-
ing the day. Mrs. M. D. Priest drawing
the souvenir of spring, Mrs. C. Q. Haley
of Polytechnic college that of autumn,
while the memento of winter went to
Mrs. Stallings.

Escape From
visitors had gone inside, the flowers
of spingtime and the luxuriant foliage
of summer appeared all the more in-
viting, and the autumn harvests and
the ice and snow of winter took on
more firmly the form of reality. One
could not but realize that nothing else
could have so truly characterised Texas
conditions as did the representation of
the four seasons, for the proximity of
spring to summer, and autumn and
winter to both, is highly typical of the
rapidity with which Texas weather
changes.
The officers of the association were
on duty early, and when the doors
were thrown open at 11 o'clock they
received the visitors and explained to
them how they might find their way
through the galaxy of beauty that had
been provided for their admiration. The
first attraction to greet the visitor was
the lunch room, tastefully decorated
in white and gold by Mrs. John Win-
ters. Mrs. J. L. Morris and Mis. J. A.
Ault, presided in the adjoining kitchen,
and the kindergarten college girls
served lunches to the hungry throngs.
Oh. Here is Spring.
What is known as the Larkin booth,
a pavilion neatly trimmed In white and

here numerous household necessities
manufactured by the Larkin company
and donated by Mrs. Ralph Smith, were

hibits was the spring booth, under the
general direction of Mrs. R. H. Mc-

Rome, Dec. 1.—The situation in the
Balkans was debated in the chamber of
deputies today and a speech made by
Signor Fusinato was received with
much enthusiasm. The galleries were
crowded and the cabinet was present.
Signor Fusinato offered a resolution of
confidence in the cabinet and its course
in the present difficulties. He said
that constitutional reform in Turkey
was a guaranty of peace in the Near
East. Foreign 'Minister Tittoni will
speak on this subject Friday, when
the vote on Signor Fusinato's motion
will be taken.
During Signor Fusinato's speech
there were uproarious demonstrations
on the part of the members of the ex-
treme left, who endeavored to prevent
him from speaking and interrupted him
constantly.

AN AIRSHIP INVENTOR
lowing communication:
To the Editor of The Record.
In the article in your paper this
morning ^xoncerning the mysterious
lights Tri the heavens, you stated that
"Fort Worth, unlike all other cities of
any considerable size, has no airship
inventor. Fort Worth should have an
inventor of airships, but hasn't.”
While the writer is in no manner con-
nected with the so-called .mysterious
lights, he is in a position to say that
two young men of this city have, after
much experimenting, perfected an air-
ship and plans thereto, for an up to
date machine of the heavier-than-air
type, applications for patents of which
will be filed within the next few weeks.
It will then be in order to open ne-
gotiations for the construction of an-
other machine from the plans’referred
to. Will the citizens of Fort Worth
take sufficient Interest n the invention
to assist in its construction or will it
he necessary to make arrangements for
such with an eastern aero club?
For business reasons, It is yet un-
advisable for the names of the young
men who are experimenting with their
machine to be divulged, but in due
time they will let themselves be known.
In the meantime, the sentiments of
your people on the subject might be
voiced through statements in the press.

It wii declared that the commssion,"

lions on Baron von Ahrenthal, the for-
eign minister, and the Austro-Hunga-
rian ambassadors abroad.
The emperor was deeply affected by
the unfortunate result of the day S re-
joicing. The authorities took all pos-
sible precautionary measures, such as
entirely stopping vehicle traffic after
sunset, but was quite unable to cope
ewith the enormous crowds. It is esti,
mated that there were fully 1,500,090
people in the streets.
It is believed that in addition to the
official list of killed and injury many
others were injured, but were unable
to reach their homes.
Illuminations and festivities were
general throughout the provincial
towns. Tomorrow’s Gazette will name
3,400 persons in all classes who will
