Qagne Denier 4276
The Imported French Coach Stallion
Now Nwned by Mexia People
VET FOE THE YEAR
ENDING MARCH
4, 1910.
Last Saturday Air. Robert Koss
of San Antonio, completed the
organization of a stock company
for the ownership of the fine im-
ported French Coach stallion,
Gagne Denier, 4276, and the an-
imal is now a permanent fixture
in Alexia, and can lie seen at
Fenner's stable where lie will
make |tlie Season.
Before the organization of the
company Air. Ross had the mem-
bers thereof as his guests at a
dinner prepared and served by
Mrs. Waller, tind the editor be-
ing an invited guest can testily
that the spread was all right.
The table was loaded down with
all kinds of good things to eat
and the guests enjoyed the re-
past as only hungry men can.
.Mrs. Waller was assisted in
serving the dinner by Air. Ross
estimable wife, who made us all
feel at home and sorry to leave
the banquet board.
After dinner the stockholders
met in the justice court room in
the city hall and the details of
the company were arranged and
organization perfected by the
election of the following officers:
E. •). Lauderdale of Groesbeclc.
president.
Phil Karner. secretary and
treasurer.
S. J. Fenner. manager of the
horse^
i Doc. Jackson. B. C. Duncan, -J.
!/. Ward. J. ('. Ferguson. ,lesse
Collins, and K. Al. Speight, board
Vtf di relators.
Other members of the company
are: W. 0. Colwell, Lloyd Bowers
Odom & Odoin. Wright Bros. Tal-
inage AlcDonald. L. A. Adams. J
Stevens & Tidwell.
Mr. Aloore was sent tor and
made a photo of the horse and
above appears a good cut made
front the photo.
Following is the pedigree ot
the animal anil it will be seen
that it runs back more than a
century and a half:

During the last twelve months
the conservation work of the
Geological Survey has included
investigations relating to'coal, oil,
and phosphate deposits and to
water-power sites on the public
domain. •'
Public Coal Lands.
Coal-land withdrawals were
made covering 7,675,000 acres
not previously withdrawn and
the form of withdrawal affecting
an additional 9,000,000 acres was
changed to cover all forms of en-
try instead of coal entry alone.
The new regulations of April 10,
190!), for the classification and
valuation of coal lands, material-
ly increased the sale price of
these lands and fixed more defi-
nitely the standards of coal class-
ification. Thus, for example, un-
der the old regulations, in eight
widely separated townships the
total area classed as coal land
was 66,320 acres and the sale
price was fixed at 2,088,600,
whereas, under the new regula-
tions, the area in the same eight
townships classed as coal land is
126,663 acres and the sale price
is $15,777,668—an increase in arct.
of over 100 per cent and in price
of over 600 per cent.

Value is wha a piano is worth measured bj tEie quality of material
and Skill put into its making. Price is what you must pay to get a Piano.
They are not always the same.
The value of a piano—not the price—determines its qualities of tone
and action; the value determines the life of these important qualities; the
value determines the enjoyment you hope to secure; and the value de-
termines the price you can get for your piano alter years of use.
You see how important it is to secure the utmost piano value; thatis
why you should buy from us. For we have given ptano quality a study
for years. Our experience and financial backing are behind us. You can
not make a mistake, as we sell pianos for their true value, under a guar-
antee from the manufaci-- rer and us as binding as a note.
Many inferior pi; !.o:> v. ill cost you more than our pianos; price does
not determine value. Lc.. us help you to understand piano quality, to
know piano value and it) secure the utmost value at the lowest price, on
terms
