Judge Stuart di<l a land ofliee
business yesterday afternoon as is
attested by the receipts from fines
which aggregated #1200 in four
hours sitting of the court. That
makes it look like a big thing for
the government, but when the ex-
pense side of the account is looked
at, such an idea vanishes like dew
betore the summer's sun. The
exact figures of the expense at-
taching to these cases from which
the $1200 was collected, at a very
conservative estimate was not less
than from $9000 to #10,000.
There were more than 100 pleas
of gailty entered.—Ardmoreite.

Ringlings' parade was a wonder.
There were people in town
Thursday.
There are fewer paupers in
Cooke county to the population
than in any part of the world.

The circus was a great thing for
children as well as the grown peo-
ple. We love to see them enjoy
themselves.
Yesterday was the quietest day
we ever saw when so many people
were in the city. Drunkeness is
decreasing in Cooke county.
After all the farmers came in to
see the circus. It is true that cot-
ton is distressingly low, but it
takes less of it this year to buy a
show ticket than when cotton was
higher.

would like to see him here, but he
is needed more in the Galveston

P. P. Glazner and Miss Belle
Armstrong of Marietta, I. T.,
were married in the city Wednes-
day evening. Quite a number of
friends came down with them from
Marietta.
The negro gambling and drink-
ing dive is fast ruining all the
negro boys and many of the men
in Gainesville. It ought to be
crushed out. It is making the
negroes a race of vagabonds.
Mose Chigley, Drake Gooch and
Bill Kelly, three young men from
Davis plead guilty yesterday to
disturbing the peace and after a
good lecture from the conrt were
fined, the former $30 and the two
latter $20 each.
One of the causes of the dissi-
pation of young men in Gaines-
ville and other cities is the want
of proper home discipline. It is
all right to try to suppress all un-
lawful temptations for the youth,
but parents should at the same
time be careful not to lose their
grip on home discipline. They
can not turn their boys and girls
loose upon the streets and expect
them to grow up model men and
women. It used to be considered
the greatest work of parents to
train their children. But now the
rule is to turn them loose and
wonder why they go wild.

Singling Bros.' Show.
Yesterday was a stirring day for
Gainesville. The big show of
Ringling Bros.' was here, and so
were many thousands of people.
The Hesperian takes pleasure
n saying after the show has gone
hat it was one of the best if not
t le very best that has ever visited
our city. It was new, clean, up
to date, attractive and was con-
ducted in a manner that made
riends of all who saw it.
We say without hesitation that
the show came nearer pleasing all
our people than any that we have
ever had. It has nothing of the
fake about it and fewer thugs and
sharks are following it than any
show we have seen.
The people were delighted with
it, and the proprietors were de-
ighted with the people. The
crowd that came was enough to
flatter anybody. There were fnlly
eight thousand people present at
the afternoon performance, ai_d a
arge audience at night. The bnm
elements which are not very large-
y represented here, was almost
wanting in the crowd.
Some how or other our farmers
became convinced that it was a
good show and they turned out
with their families by the thou-
sand.
There were many new features
and every one an Improvement, in
fact it is a new show and has
many merits found in no other.
It is the first large show to re-
duce prices in Texas and this fact
renders it very popular.
Ringling Bros, certainly made a
hit in Gainesville.
show notes.
The farmers came and brought
the children.
More country people bonght re-
serve seats than we ever saw be-
fore in Gainesville. This shows
that they are getting on well.
It was one of the most orderly
crowds we ever saw.
A good many nation people were
there.
We took the children but we
wanted to tee the show ourselves.

coat from Captain Woods, he was
told that if he would leave ton n
there would be no prosecution. He
said he would kill any man who
would attempt to arrest him. Mr.
Burch knowing of this war talk
was very naturally careful. When
arrested the fellow had nothing on
him in the way of weapons save a
very small broken knife. He is
now in jail and will probably be
given a transportation at govern-
