r. J. Baler sued the Fort Worth
Ik Bio Grande for damages to house-
hold goods while In transit, claiming
•34 50. Judge John Long awarded
him 013 60. One piece of furniture
had been struck by a 38 bullet mak-
ing a small hole and Millard Martin,
who defended the company In his us-
ual inimitable manner made light of
this part of Its damages. After the
trial the y oung German remarked:
“If Mr. Martin had one ‘leetle’ hole
right above his eyes he would have
no use for bees head.”
Joe Murphy,who Is visiting here,
will return to Dalhart Monday. Bis
wife Is at Dallas, slowly recovering
from a recent operation. It was
through the untiring effort* of this
woman that the Christian church oo
Race street was built. After the
family moved to Dalhart Mrs. Mur-
phy decided that a church must be
built In that town, and so successful
were her efforts that a 82,500 bulldiog
was erected and finished up in ele-
gant style with the very best of fur-
niture.
Wednesday evening of this week
Thomas Lawson and Miss Augua
Latta were married at the residence
•f the bride's father, T. W. Latta.
The happy couple are domiciled at
their new home at Carlton, where
Mr. Lawson teaches school. Miss
Latta Is a graduate of the public
school In Stephenville and no worth-
ier young woman as a bride ever left
this city. But when sne left sohool
her school mates made a prophesy but
it seems that fate actea in a most
contrary maoner.
In the spring a heavy hall storm
destroyed some crops near Bluff Dale
aod Sam Baldwin says that the cot-
ton on such farms did not have time
to mature the fruit before the late
freeze came, and nothing was made.
The people did not expect to get
through plckiog before Christmas,
but the freeze did so much damage,
that It will not now take much time
to finish picking, but Mr. Baldwin
says there's been enough cotton made
anyway aod that as It Is the children
can have more time at sohool.
T. V. Hamilton, a 'young man
about twenty-nine years old, son of
O. 0. Hamilton of Thurbet, died No-
vember 1st from fever contracted
while serving In the American army
In the Philippine Islands. Deceased
had served ooe term in the service
aod re-enilsted, but soon after con
tracted the fatal fever. For seventeen
months he was In the hospital and
was discharged for disability and re
turned home, d)iog at the home of
bis father at Thurber.
W. C. Burnett of Duffau had haa
left leg removed last spring and la
now picking his own cotton. Be
gets down in the middle of the rows
and crawls along until he fills his
seek, when-one of his daughters emp-
ties it for him and in this way he
gets from 215 to 280 pounds per day,
hla best picking being 303 per day,
but this wm too hard for him. Be
eats his dinner In the field on his
eottoo sack. Mr. Burnett's son,
twelve years old, got crippled some
time ago and a surgical operation be-
came necessary aod this worked an-
other hardship oo the family. How-
ever Mr. Burnett’s neighbors have
befcn exceedingly kind to him In all
his misfortunes.
Two young men who live io the
country near Stephenville succeeded
in getting beMtly drunk oo a west
bound train and when they attempt-
ed to leave the car at the depot in
this olty, got out on the wrong side,
fell under the wheels of the car aod
were too helpless to get out of dan-
ger. Just before the train pulled out
City Marshall Cralo jerked their feet
from under the car wheel* and saved
them from being horribly mutilated.
They were put in the lockup and
next morning each paid 812.10. They
owe Mr. Crain a lasting debt of grat-
itude. Had he not been at the depot
at 8 p. m. both of them today would
bo helpless cripples.
There has been trouble at Morgan
Mill, the last plaod'on earth where It
was likely that thieves were to be
found, for it has long been the opln-

it looked as if she would die,
but It is not now likely that there
will be e'funeiai until a natural life
Is lived out. Both parties are color-
ed. The Bomslls woman has s Mexi-
can husband and the Williams wom-
an did have ooe, sod she Is now sap-
srstsd from him and perhaps this Is
why she aod the KomIIs woman did
not get along together. An envious,
jealous feeling existed which no
doubt brought oo the trouble.

ceotly purchased the store bulldiog
he now occupies from Benry Elms
for 8750.
Prof. D. E. Renfro informs us
that bis sohool, the Edna Hill school,
will begin Nov. 25th, it having been
deferred uutii that date that the
children might help to gather the
eottoo crop.
W. L. Butler returned Monday
from Alabama, where lie went some
weeks ago to assist In the dlvlsloo
of an estate of which he Is an heir.
He haa been away from that country
for twenty-seven years and saya one
could not now give him the country.
Dr. Brown was a visitor to the
Energy country Tuesday and In re-
turning that night happend to what
might have resulted in a serious ac-
cident. The klDg bolt was broken,
causing the front wheels to run from
under the bed. No serious damage
was done.
A communication from Mark
Strickland slates that he has arrived
at Han Antonio on his way home and

he did not have any money with

honorable and high minded to stoop
to dishonorable deeds. On Saturday
night a church aupper was given for
some purpose, and durlDg the even-
lug two unscrupulous young men,
aQxious to becloud the fair name of
the place, stole two bats. It’s al-
ways very easy to locate a thief, so a
court of Inquiry at Stephenville on
Monday revealed the names of the
thieves and county attorney Will
Pannll and Will Fulkerson searched
a trunk and recovered the hats. Bill
A key was arrested and one more ar-
rest will follow.
F. M. Reaves, who lives near nar-
bln, has been peculiarly unfortunate
the past summer, and his farm
seems to have more misfortunes than
any other In Texas. Mr. Reeves has
been down with either slow or ty-
phoid fever sinoe August and is now
critically ill. Hla wife, four daugh-
ters and one son—all are either sick
or have been Bick. One of the girls,
about thirteen years old, died Sept.
1st. F. B. Muncey, who lives on
his place aod who has been the main-
stay of the family, broke hia collar
bone while dismounting from a wagon
and becoming entangled in some loose
wire and will not be able to work for
four months. Clalb Prier, a son-in-
law of Mr. Reeves, is very low with
■low fever at the Reaves home.
Luther Lewis, another son-in-law, is
not expected to live.
Rev.J. D. Jackson, is perhaps the
best pleaMd men in Erath county,
for a gift came, to him in a very un-
expected manner and from an unex-
pected quarter, aod it made the rev-
erend gentleman feel so profoundly
grateful that he could hardly refrain
from shedding tears, and he was bo
entirely overcome that he could not
find language to express the apprec-
iative thoughts that struggled for ex-
pression. The gift came from David-
son school house aod Liberty Baptist
chnrch congregations—an attestation
of appreciation for services rendered
tne past year, and while the boggy
waa being selected at Thurber the
coal company insisted that nothing
but the very highest grade vehicle
should be given, so the company
donated 840 50 toward helping to
buy the buggy. -Not only this, but
the coal company gave Mr. Jackson a
fine winter lap robe, a summer robe,
whip and did not even forget the oil
to lubricate the wheels. The horse
we understand was presented by Tut
Hume.
Some .time last week Dora Wll
llama met Klzzie Rosalia at her borne
in the eMtero part of town and gave
her a gentle drubbing. Then the se-
quel followed, for later on the two
women again met and their eyes
flMhed resentment. Mrs. Williams
threw a rock and as she was a trained
athlete the rock went straight where
the thrower aimed it and atruck her
adversary on the head, and then
while gathering another mlssiie she
•tumbled and fell. The valiant Mrs.
Kizzie Rosa II* waa at her throat In-
atanly with a razor, seeking the eas-
iest rahte to let out her life’s blood.

B.M. Franks sold his fifty acre
farm near Haz.le Dell last week to
George Haggard for 8500 and pur-
chased fifty-six acres from R. S.
Moore on the Comanche road two
miles above GustlDe for 11,971.90.
Mr. Moore immediately left for
Throckmorton, where he Invested in
real estate. “ .
J. M. Strickland and son, Guy,
spent Monday at Wilson conferring
with the school board as to the time
of begiuning the school at that place.
Mrs. Strickland and Guy will teach
the Wilson school another term.
This is an Independent district and
is reputed to be a school of some
consequence. Mr Strickland will
teach the Baggett school the eusutng
session.
Dr. W. 1). Collins left Monday for
new Orleans for a six weeks post grad-
uate course in the Tulane medical
college. The doctor is rather partial
to this old southern college, having
two post-graduate diplomas, bearing
date of Jan. 4th and Dec. 11th, 1905,
from that institution. Besides these
two and hla original "sheepskin”
from the Western Reserve Medical
college at Cleveland, Ohio, he jiu
three other certificates of equal note,
one being* from the Philadelphia
College of Medicine. These ooursea
are to the doctor what the Institutes

the illness of Mrs. Benclnl. He re-

Harry McGhee was the victim of
a bicycle wreck Monday night that
came very neat patting him out of
business. Tne lad had started home
after night and was going through
the yards at the Santa Fe when his
wheel collided with a hand car and
he was thrown off and rendered un-
conscious for quite a little while. He
waa found by a brakeman and helped
up. Later a companion came along
and helped him to his holme. The

A very'harmless amusement, but
one that Is calculated to frighten
many men and most all the ladles,
is the thrusting of robber snakes In-
to ones face. These rubber snakes
were quite plentiful on the carnival
ground the past week and a great
deal of aport is had at the expense of
the unsuspecting. Wednesday night
auch a practice led to trouble be-
tween Boy Wadaworth and Obe
Nichols. Wadsworth had the snake
and when he put it iuto Nichols'
face the latter went for Wadsworth
in rather an abrupt way. The young
man meant no harm, but he had to

Young Men Wai
B«tlev, “The Immaculate?"
Bailey “The Immaculate (?)” up-
on the newspapers in his Biownwood
who are the newspapers
fighting me? 1 mean the big daily
papers and not the weekly, for some
of the little country ecJRors are so
narrow between the eyes they can on-
ly see one way, and once they think
they see a thing therd Is no chance
to enlighten them. I don’t want
them for me. Of the principal news-
papers there Is the Houston Chron-
icle, and of ail miserable creatures
that ever disgraced the earth Is Its
editor Marcellus Foster. Another Is
the Fort Worth Telegram, which
ought to be called the Police Ga-
zette. This paper Is edited by father
and son but no relation to the Holy
Ghost. I know where they came
from and where they are going. A
telegram from their northern home
says they have always been staunch
republicans. Another is the DallM
Times-Herald, and all are the die-
olples of Hearst, nothing could he
worse. Just think of It Ring, Rob-
ertson, The Houston Chronicle, Dal-
las Times-Herald and Fort Worth
Telegram, splendid examples of clvlo
righteousness. They are all seeking
the blood of the democratic senator
from Texas. ”
The above ought to alienee that
part of the couotry press that ia for
him. lie unequivocally makes the
cruel criticism of all without except-
ion, says he does not want tiiem for
him. There are just as able men In
the country press against Bailey as
there are for him. If the former are
too narrow between the eyes to see
only ooe way, ao are the latter, un-
less the fact of supporting Bailey
makes them different. Mayes of the
Brownwood Bulletin is Justly recog-
nized as one df the ablest men on the
couotry press and yet he Is against
the Immacu'tae, (?) the Infallable
(?) Bailey. We have known Marcellus
Foster, the managing editor of the
Houston Chronicle, a long time and
never a word against him as a gent-
leman and a scholar have we heard
until the Immaculate (?) Joseph was
criticised by him. It Is a libel on
the Fort Worth Telegram to com-
pare It to the Police Gazette and we
defy Immaculate(?) Joe to point out
in its columns aoythiog to merit
such a criticism. Equally uiijust is
his criticisms of the Dallas Times-
Herald. The Immaculate (?) Joseph
has horned the bridges behind him.
He may win this time owing to the
lack of organization against him, but
he can safely hire out to the trusts
and corporations hereafter, for^he
will never repreMnt the people of
Texas again. For unmitigated gall,
egotism and self-laudation, the Im-
maculate (?) Joe stands without a
peer.—Athens Dally Bevlew.
When Senator Bailey Mid at
Brownwood that the editor of the
Ft. JVorth Telegram was a republi-
can he knew that auch was Dot the
truth aod not to use stronger lan-
guage, he deliberately misrepresent-
ed the facta In this case. In hla
•peeoh at DallM * Bailey made the
charge that John J Relmera of the
Ft, Worth Telegram was a very “act-
ive republican and votlbg the repub-
lican ticket before he reft Iowa • 1
