ing is shown in the rising tendency of

of Which are being received at the
Department of Agriculture in Wash-
ington from the principal maiketB of
the country.
With flour selling at prices higher
than at any time since the civil war,
due principally (o the shortage of the
wheat crop this y ear, the.cost of po-
tatoes hajs mounted for the same rea-
son. Meat prices continue to advance
with prices being paid producers for
meat animals showing almost 24 per
cent over what was paid a year ago.
Butter, eggs, and cheese all ate sell-
ing at higher prices for this time of
the year than they were last year, and
beans show an increase of more than

of the short crop. Onions are more
than 50 per cent higher and cabbage
more than id per cent liigiic:.
Prices paid to producers for farm
products increased per cent during

per cent higher than a year ago.

er than a year ago, according to lat-
est statistics available at the depart-
ment. The price was Jc ,pei pound

NEGRO BOY MANGLED BY

BITTEN BY RATTLE SNAKE
WOMAN MAY DIE
While working with her poultry at
her home in the Lanliam community,
Mrs. Baxter Morgan was bitten by a
rattle snake Wednesday morning. A

boro, and it was thought that she
would survive the injury, although,
according to latest reports she was
very ill.
CHILD BITTEN BY COPPERHEAD
IS IN HA DUOND1TIOA
| Last Saturday nighl a young negro
named Joe Davenport was mu over
’by a freight train on the Katy-C’entral
near, the section house, west of Whit-
ney, the result of which was the loss
of Dotli a hand and foot.
From reports it seems Davenport
had gone to sleep on the hack and
was not seen by the engineer until too
late to stop the train,
j He was brought immediately to the
Harris Drug Store and administered
to by physicians and later was taken
to Waco where his hand and foot,
, which had been crushed, were ampu-
tated. At latest, report it was thought
he would recover.—Whitney Messen-
ger.
Gustine Gazette, Sept 29,
The little 18-months' old baby of
Leiter Graham, living a few miles
' north'of town, was bitten by a copper
head snake Tuesday morning of this
week. The child was sleeping on a
pallet in a shed room, and the snake
crawled from the yard into the house,
passing by the child, which it was
thought had awakened a few moments
.prior to his snakeship'a advent, uml
probably seeing the reptile, tried to
vcatch it. The child's cries alarmed
the family, and on going to it tin y
found the snake, and also noted when*
* It had bitten the baby on the lc.t
wrjist. The snake was quickly dis-
patched and medical aid summondeu.
By the time the physician arrived (lie
child was in a critical condition, but
Strong antidotes were promptly ad-
ministered and while it is not consiu-

Traffic Reg 'lotions
The city council of Dublin some time :ago adopted traffic regulations
for the guildance of drivers of all vehicles within and entering the city,
whether buggies, wagons or automobiles. The ordinances have been
published and are now law. They are only partly observed and by some
are not. observed at all. From this out they are going to bo observed
and beginning next Monday. October 9th. those who do not observe the
regulations, will be arrested and held for v iolations under the city laws.
We do not want to make arrests, or In cause annoyance to drivers,
but the ordinances must he observed for the good of all and lo accom-
plish this all violators will lie arrested. Not alone does this refer to
over speeding, hut it refers especially; to the rule of turning always
to tile rigid and when vehicles are stopped on the streets they must
come propprly up to the side walk anti on the right side of the street
facing the direction the vehicle may lie going. Copies of the ordin-
ance can tie had from the mayor or from the city marshal and all are
solemnly warned that prosecutions will follow all violations. Help us
to avoid this necessity by observing the regulations yourself and urg-
ing and assisting others to do so. C. <’. BAXTER. Mayor.

The insurance companies who held
policies on the M. D Gallagher stock,
recently damaged by tire, have this
week agreed with Mr Gallagnet upon
a settlement for the loss sustained.
The basis of sen lenient was for pay-
ment in full of the policy of $8,500 on
the stock of goods, all of which will
be laken over by the insurance com-
pany and Hie goods removed else-
where. There was $500 insurance on
the furniture and fixtures and agree-
ment was reached to pay $400 damage
on this property. On the building the
insurance people agreed to pay some-
thing like $1,500. We understand that.
