Surface, I know a man who was
born In the slums was a pickpocket
at eight years of age, was a boss at
45, administering justice according to
his lights. I know a man who was
born what he calls a gentleman and
who, at 45, sold himself for the “hon-
ors” of a high office. And once, after
he had shaken hands with that boss,
he looked at me, furtively made a wry
face, and wiped his hand with his
pocket handkerchief!
j The other part of our work of prep-
aration— getting the Wall street
whales in condition for the “fat-fry-
ing”—was also finished. The Wall
Street Roebuck and I adventured
Was in a state of quake from fear
of the election of “the scourge
of God,” as our subsidized socialist
and extreme radical papers had dub-
bed Scarborough—and what invalu-
able campaign material their praise
of him did make us!
Roebuck and I went from office to
office among the great of commerce,
industry and finance. We were re-
ceived with politeness everywhere.
But not a penny could we get. Every-
where the same answer:. “We can-
not see our way to contributing just
yet. But if you will call early next
week—say Monday or Tuesday—”
four or five days away—“we’ll let you
know what we can do.” The most
ardent eagerness to placate us, to
keep us in good humor; but not a
cent—until Monday or Tuesday.
When I heard “Monday or Tues-
day” for the third time my suspi-
cions were aroused. When I heard
it the fifth time, I understood. Wall
street was negotiating with the other
side, and would know the result by
Monday, or at the latest Tuesday.
LINE HAY CONE
THRO’ BOTH PLACES
The Interurban Line May Come
Through Both Burleson and
Joshua—Surveyors at Work.
•cm
Mr. Chas. McPherson was at Bur-
leson on Monday., He stated that
the people of Burleson were very
get the» proposed interur-
from Fort \’Xi'th to ClebuPiie.
the people 0/ Joshua were very
confident of getting it. He said the
surveyors had been very busy recent-
ly locating a line between Burleson
and Joshua. He said the surveyors
had finished up their work, between
places named, and were now employ-
ed in locating a line south of Joshua.
In the projection of the latter work
fhe men will very likely come on to
this city. The men are now putting
the finishing touches, so far as they
can be put on by the surveying corps.
Nothing has been left undone by
either the people of Burleson or
Joshua. At the least the indications
are now bright for the final location
of the line via Burleson and Joshua,
The advantage of this line would be
the additional population that the
moving cars would have to work on;
that is to say, with Burleson and
Joshua on the line, between Cleburne
and Port Worth, a total of 2,000 peo-
ple would be available as patrons, in
additional to the population of both
Cleburne and Port Wbrth. The com-
pany is not likely to overlook that
fact, however auxious they may be
to get a straight line.
It is understood that several Cle-
burne parties have invested in ru-
ral lands along the proposed route,
Most of the deals have been made on
the quiet. It was reported a few
days ago that several tracts have
been placed under option, just north
of this city. Until the Fort Worth-
Cleburne. line has been absolutely lo-
cated no one will know what to do
in the matter oP'getting. in on the
“ground floor.” That the line wih
Be built is an assured fact, but until
the dirt is broken some people will
continue to say: “You’ll have to
show me.” The company is having
some good offers from Mineral Wells,
but the Cleburne line seems the next
on the calendar, and will be in op-
eration within the next twelve
months, if no unforseen accident
Happens to forestall 'the progress of
the work.
Went to Chicago.
Mr. T. 0. W!ood, purchasing agent
of the G. C. & S. P. road went to
Chicago on Saturday night to be ab-
sent about a week.
Went to Fort Worth.
1 Miss Wylie Bishop, daughter of
Squire and Mrs. W. B. Bishop, went
to Fort Worth on Friday to visit
jher sister and brother-in-law, Mr.
Mrs. 5Vill Bytes of that city.

All the Fraternal Organizations in
the City to Join in a Grand
Picnic July 4th.
PROFUSE IN PRAISE
Representatives from all of the
fraternal lodges in this city, in res-
ponse to notifications sent to them
by mail, met last night at the Odd
Fellows hall on East Henderson
street. Mr. Joe Dalton was in the
chair and Mr. G. C. Smith was at
the secretary’s desk. A general dis-
cussion followed as to the advisabil-
ity of giving a general picnic on
July 4th. It was decided to hold a
picnic on that date some where near
this city, the exact place to be made
known later. One feature of the
gala day occasion will be a parade in
which all organizations of the city
will appear in full uniform, and all
business houses will have decorated
floats. There will be several bands
to furnish music. There will be sev-
eral prominent speakers, these to be
selected by the several organizations,
and some to come from a distance.
The idea prevailed that all orders
that have not 'been represented are
urgently requested to be present at
the Odd Fellows hall on next Satur-
day night. The following commit-
tees were appointed:
On Grounds—D. M. Davis, John
Temple, J. P. Roye and Lee New-
bery.
On Arrangements—Mr. Winn, H.
E. Stoy, Arthur Etter.
On Music—Joe Lockett, Dr. Eas-
terwood, T. Pierce Kirkham.
On Parade—Mose Warren, G. C.
Smith, Prank McEnnis.
On Privileges—F. Frederick, Mr.
'Strickland and A. F. Lodle.
Mr. Wiinn was appointed treasurer.
Appreciate Superintendent R. J. Sul-
livan of Denison, Who Resign-
ed After 27 Years Service.
Gone to Kansas City.
Mr. and Mrs. D. M. Amos and lit-
tle son, Harry Amos, left on Sunday
for Kansas City and other cities of
the north. Mrs. Amos is a sister of
Mr. Ben H. Alden of this city. Mr.
Amos is a popular switchman of
this city.
For twenty-seven years Mr. R. J.
Sullivan has been suerintendent of
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas road
with headquarters at Denison. He
was known far and wide, and he was
given up to be one of the best rail-
road men in Texas. By reason of his
long service with the road, the men
in all branches of the service, espec-
ially those who were brought in im-
mediate business contact with him
feel that in his resignation from the
position of superintendent they have
lost' a personal friend and an able
adviser, and the employes of the Cle-
burne division of the Missouri, Kan-
sas and Texas road, who have been
with him ever since he has been sup-
erintendent, desire to extend their
heartfelt appreciation for his many
courteous considerations, and also
wish for him an early return of his
former good health, which has been
impaired by bis arduous labors, and
also wish for him an unlimited
amount of success wherever he may
locate.
