Large Crowds Attend Both Perform-
ances Here.
A newspaper could be filled with In-
cidents of tbe day when a big show
comes to town and then half would
not be told.
Saturday was a big day in Bryan.
For weeks the newspapprs had con-
Ltaliir"announcements of the coming
event and supplementing the pulling
power of the press the show company
bad ' advertised in the iwual way
throughout the country.
Crowds came by train as well as
wagon and other conveyances. Possi-
bly ten thousand were here.
The company arrived over the I.
G. N. In the early morning. An ac-
cidental derailing at a switch caused
the parade to move much later tban
was expected. But the thousands who
lined the streets were patient and were
well repaid because the parade was a
good one.
The Eagle regrets it has not time to
detail more' particularly the f vents of
the day and the parade; to tell of the
Inspiring circling of the Indians and
other rldersas they wheeled around the
drinking fountain at the head of Main
street where their steeds were given
water; of he flashing costumes and
caparisons1 of tbe riders and their
mounts; of the lineup of the trick
mules at the crossing of Fannin and
Main streets while the parade was
forming; of tbe fine looking- boys and
pretty girl who rode In varl-colored
costumes and on varicolored ponies;
of the Indians who have Petruchlo
skinned too far to talk about and are
there with an armful when It comes
to producing res'tlts the red man
points out the place and the lady of
the tepee puts up the tent; of he buf-
faloes and the bands: the Turks with
their alleged musical Instruments
and other features too numerous to
mention.
The afternoon show pleased a large
crowd and at night the attendauce
was very good. It 1s a good show
conducted by high-class people and
the performance Is worth the price.
For Thanksgiving.
Following Is the musical program to
be rendered at the Thanksgiving ser-
vice in the First Baptist church of
this city Nov. 26:
Organ Prelude Chromatic Fan-
tasia Thlele

Horses Coming.
To the Public: I will be in Bryan
next Tuesday with a carload of hors-
es mares and mules billed through to
Port Arthur and will arrive In Dry-
an Monday afternoon and go out
Tuesday afternoon. Those deslrln
animals of this character should meet
n;p nt the barn of the Brazos Valley
Horse and Mule Co. where I can
sell them anything they may desire.
This Is a good load of single and
double drivers and they are for sals.
Come and see them. O. E. DuBose.

After Investigation Mr. Crane De-
cides Against the Boom Districts.
Rev. W.' D.' Crane of Rockdale ar
rived In the city Thursday afternoon
Mr. Crane comes to this section with
the idea of locating after having visit
ed the boom sections in the western
family of this place just now because
he will buy land here while on the
present visit but cannot move with bis
family o this place jus now because
of business matters detaining him at
Rockdale where he la pastor of a
church.
To The Eagle man Mr. Crane stat-
ed that he lived In this section for
a period of years and left about twelve
months ago because Been elsewhere by
bis work as pastor. It Is bis opinion
that lands hero will enhance largely
In value' at an early date since so
much foreign Immigration la dlvert-
'ed to Galveston.
It is to be regarded as especially
significant wbn a man of Mr. Crane's
mature judgment and after having
made a personal investigation of tbe
two sections shows his faith In Braz-
os county by placing bis money here.
Mr.' S. II. Scott father of District
Judge Sam Scott of Waco has re-
turned from a few years experiment In
Uvalde county and be also tellsThe
Eagle man that he expects to buy land
close in and settle here. Mr. Scott
formerly resided In this section and
is aware of our advantages and dis-
advantages. The decision of such men as those
mentioned in this article 4s certainly
entitled o some weigh and to peo-
ple In other sections who may be
dissatisfied with their surroundings
Tbe Eagle suggests that they write
to any real estate man of this city
see advertising columns mention-
ing your wishes as to the character of
land you want and they will be
pleased to send descriptive matter
concerning the county.

EDGE
THE BASKETBALL GAME.
Both 8ldes Win in the T. W. C. and
West 8ide Contest.
Seventeen pretty bright-eyed rosy-
cheeked little ladies came tripping in
to The Eagle office yesterday morn
Ing about 10 o'clock to tell all about
the basketball game with T. W. C
which didn't happen. A game of ball
between tbe T. W. C. students and the
West side girls hade been announced
for 9 o'clock In the morning to be
played on the T. W. C. grounds. Ac-
cording to the statement of one little
miss the T. W. C. club was dissatis-
fied with the choice of referee and
refused to play. Tbe West side girls
went out to T. W. C. In the morning
took their respective positions for the
game and were ready to play ball; but
It is stated tbe T. W. C. girls wouldn't
come out.
With his forces m aril a led in line
of battle tbe referee Issued his ulti
matum to the effect that If the T. W.
C. girls didn't play ball within three
minutes he would declare the West
side girls tbe victors by a score of
2 to 0. Tbe arbitration board was evi-
dently on vacation no peace commis-
sioners were appointed to argue the
reduction of the Irreducible minimum
to 1 to 2 or even for a tie and so at
the expiration of the time allowance
the T. W. C. girls still refusing to
come out to battle tbe referee de-
clared the West side girls winners
by the clean score of 2 to 0. The girls
marched back to town victorious and
happy believing that while the en
gagement had been merely tentative
insofar as hard work and muscular
exercise were concerned the result
was quite decisive.
Later in the day tbe following com
munication was handed Into the of
fice with the request that it be print
ed.
It is unsigned but the Eagle makes
an exception on this occasion in pub
lishing an unsigned communication
and gives space to same. We print
it as nearly verbatim as possible but
didn't have quite enough italics in tbe
Mergentbaler to italicize all the under
scored words. The freedom of em-
phasis we should say indicates that
the T. W. C. girls are real angry.
To the Eagle Press
"Please print this just as written:'
"West Side Forfeits Game to T. W.
C"
Page 10 Rule 6. Sections No.'s I to
II.
Spauding Official Guide" Section I.
The Referee In all cases must be thor
oughly competent and an impartial
person and shall not be a member of
either competing organization."
Section II. In nil but championship
games the visiting team shall choose
the Referee but shall notify the home
team before the day of the game.
Any team neglecting to send such
notification within the limit specified
shall forfeit the right to appoint the
Referee. '
T. W. C. was no notified about the
Referee until the morning of the game
and in choosing a member of the
school which they represent for ref-
eree they forfeited on two points the ;
right to choose the Referee to T. W. C. '
But the West Side claimed to be an
independent organtation so would not
consent to this Rule. But the team
all wore the school suits and school
colors and every member of the team
belong to that School. Therefore West
Side forfeits game to T. W. C.
This seems to be quite clear and
should act stay of proceedings
at least until the matter can be adju-
cated before the Mothers' club or car-
ried to The Hague tribunal.
