Two Burglars.
There were two burglaries last
night, the fruit and confectionery
stand of Mr. Biggar on Main
street, next door east of Charley
Diirit', and the stand of Mr. Ous-
ley on North Caddo street.
This is the second time both
these stands have been burglarized
since Christmas. It was only

Many amusing stories art) told of an
j obi k't ntlpijian who lived in New Jersey
pnine y- ars ago and w ho had a warm
and philanthropic heart, but a tongue
which was easily twisted. He was al-
ways rc ady to sjteak a word for any good
cv.Uf'.e, however, and some of his remark-
able appeals have been handed down to
the present day.
On one occasion there was a large pub-
lic meeting at Newark, ami this old gen-
tleman arose to address the people on the
subject of a proposed Sunday school for
1 colored children. He spoke of the new
enterprise with earnestness, but evident-
ly became conscious of a slight confusion
of speech as he progressed.
"Ladies and gentlemen," he said, "in
the old Stumptown district there's a
| good openin for a Sunday school, audit's
needed too. We've already got a col-
j ored room and 50 children, some more or
j consid'ble less, most of 'em \ nng, and
we want a teacher for a class of girls,
mostly females, and we want shoes,
i either male or female whatever for chil-
dren, most of 'em either boys or girls."
Here the good man sat down hurried-
ly and mopped the perspiration from his
forehead. There were smiles on many
faces, but the female and male shoesand
j the teacher for the colored room were se-
cured before the meeting was over in
spite of the merriment.—Youth's Com-
panion.

This is Snider's first time to
write from Delaware Bend. I
thought when the walking Jawbone
was down here I would write every
week. Mr. Jawbone attracted the
attention of the people in this sec-
tion. He run on uie when I was
busy in my engine room. I first
thought it was some one crazy, but
after listening a while at his talk
I soon found him out.
We are destitute of a store here,
also a doctor. On last Monday
the store moved out, the doctor
was gone, the postmaster was
gone and at mail time a new car-
rier appeared also a new post-

The water question is being
talked extensively. The unani
luous verdict is that the water sup-
ply must be increased, and that the
only solution is to bore for it.
There is not a man in the city
who would not be glad if the water
company would bore and get gooi
water and plenty of it. What they
want is good water and plenty o
it. Somebody must get it.

This will naturally lessen the
amount of switching done on Cali-

on those streets.

Masons went to Ardmore jester-
day. Among them were A. II.

rick, Felix Johnson, E. Purdy,
Pat Ware and John McAlman.
They assisted the Ardmore chap-
ter in conferring degrees last night.
Major Tobey bought ninety-eight
head of horses. He went to Den-
ton yesterday where he will buy
several more head. These pur-
chases are a good advertisement
for our stockmen, besides they
leave considerable money here
which is very acceptable these dull
times.
A large number of ladies gath-
ered Thursday afternoon in the Y.
M. C. A. room to meet Mrs. W.
H. Johnson, who had been invited
here from Dallas that they might
have an insight into the grand
work which is engrossing the
ruinds of all true good christian
workers today in our land. After
a most interesting address Mrs.
Johnson proceeded to organize a
band of the "Kings Daughters."
A more enthusiastic body of ladies
never met together in Gainesville.
Forty-four ladies, representatives
of our best families, rose to their
feet to take upon themselves the
obligation of this order. Mrs.
Johnson felt that her mission to
Gainesville had been a successful
one and with words of encourage-
ment bade them, in God's name,
go forward.
