The Fall Campaign

tensive and always growingtrade.

unique it her designs and cleverly sketches any costume you

made up garments for your inspection, and in this way her
ideas become an invaluable aid to our customers. Her ability
in this line is instantly recognized and her shop is already

overtime to get orders out; but we again ask our customers not
to delay placing their early orders, to avoid disappointment and

-HAS A-
Jewelry
Store...
That Does Credit
to Denison.
The land and character of the jewelry stores in a
town is a very good indication of what the town and
its people really are. Strangers in looking about town
always pull up in front of a jewelry store window, and
if the display is a good one they say: ‘‘This must be
a pretty good town to support an establishment like
this.” This store is well known tor its stock of fine
watches, the finest in Texas. Diamonds, fine
jewelry, cut glass and art china each a complete line,
equal to the best large city jewelry stores.

There was a regular meeting of the
Denison Labor Trades Council Wednes-
day night.
The election of a president was taken
up. C. P. Ruffner, recently president of
the council, has left the city, caustng the
vacancy in that position. Robert Ross-
bottom, ot the boilermakers, was elected
president ot the council.

council was instructed to Inform the offi

better expresses the phenomenal
success of Mr. Kingston.
Looking over the entire business
field for the past ten years we can-
not recall a single business man who
has succeeded like Kingston. It is
a remarkable record that any house
may justly feel proud of.
“KINGSTON HAS IT”
has become a byword that is heard
in thousands of household! in Texas
and throughout the Indian Terri-
tory. For yeara and years, drug
firm after drug firm went down to
defeat before Kingston took hold.
In the face of this adverse record
Kingston was not dismayed in the
least. He looked over the situation
and profited by the mistakes of his
predecessors. He prospered from
the first day that he opened his
doors. He made it a point to keep
always on hand every conceivable
article known to the drug business.
St. Louis nor Chicago cannot boast
of a better appointed drug establish-
ment. It is a remarkable fact, and
the books will prove it, that Mr.
Kingston’* sales have doubled every
year in the past ten years, and be
hasn't reached the top notch yet.
Kingston is an expansionist. His
business is growing every day. He
is always reaching for more trade,
and he gets it.
His business methods have always
been clear above hoard. He is
strictly reliable, strictly honest. Of
his thousands of patrons not one has
lodged a word of complaint.
A prominent factor of success is
the reliable quality of his stock.
When people want the best they
go to Kingston’s. He never disap-
point* them. A person could spend
an hour very profitably at Kings-
ton’s looking at his mammoth stock.
It represents many thousands of
dollars. His famous motto express-
es all.

The Herald stated a few days ago that
Winfield Scott Stratton, the millionaire
who died recently in Colorado, worked at
his trade as carpenter and contractor in
this city in 1872, and in the winter of that
year went with Jim Leonard to Colorado
where he made his fortune. This must
be a mistake. We do not recollect him
and haven’t found %n old-tin er who does.
He certainly did not accompany Leonard
to Colorado in 1872, because Leonard did
not go there until 18S0.
“ Bud” (Henry; An druse Dead.
Henry Andruss, better known as
“Bud,” died Wednesday at the home ot
his sister, Mrs. Smith, on West Crawford
street, 300 block. The deceased was 37
years of age. Bud has been a resident of
Denison for the past twenty-five years.
He was a splendid, whole-souled fellow,
with a heart in him as big as beats be-
neath the human breast. As a camp
companion he was never surpassed. The
writer has passed the happiest days of life
with him at the camp-fire. He was a
great spoitsman, and life went merrily
when Bud was around. He was the per-
sonification of good nature; cheerful at
all timea and under all circumstances.
Peace to his ashes. Poor Bud, may he
find the rest which was denied him on
earth. The funeral took
interment was at
place Thursday.

I. Franklin Dead.
The sad news was received In the city
Thursday ot the death of our pioneer cit-
izen I. Franklin, which occurr«0at Dal-
las Mr. Franklin was a business factor
of Denison for many years. At one pe-
riod he occupied the quarters where Jas.
Boyd now is. For a number of years he
was in the J. D. Quinn building and
made all kinds of garments, having at
one time not less than twenty hands at
work. Mr. Franklin was one of the best
citizens that has lived here. His death
will cause universal regret. However
humble his means, he was always willing
to do his best for the advancement of
Denison. He was a public spirited gen-
tleman. He left here and located at Dal-
las about three years ago. The Gazet-
teer did not hear the cause of death,
only that Mr. Franklin had been in poor
health for some time.

Mr. Kingston is one ot our most
enterprising citizens, the latch-string
hangs out to every enterprise that
will push Denison to the front. In
his ten years’ busines career he has
never for a moment lost faith in our
ultimate grand destiny. He has
demonsttated his faith in many ways
which has added to our material
prosperity.
The Gazkttekr with thousands
of others, tskes pleasure in extend-
ing to Mr. Kingston congratulation
on his business success, and wishes
him mtny more years ot prosperity.
Mr. Kingston is yet a young man
and has all the world before him.
Judging his past, there is no predic-,
tion that can be too flattering of the
future.
A George Stark Dead. V
In the midst of universal gloom
and horror Geo. Stark, a pioneer
citizen passed awsy at the Ourand
hotel. Mr. Stark arrived here a tew
days previous from bis farm at War-
ren Flats. He was very feeble, suf-
fering from a protracted spell ot ty-
phoid malarial fever. Mr. Ourand
had known Stark for many years
and did all in his power to make the
sick man comfortable, but it was all
to no avail. Stark died Sundav.
George Stark came to Denison in
1873. He was identified with the
construction of the M., K. & T. and
was appointed superintendent of the
stockyards, a position which he held
fox a period of over ten years.
When Stark resigned the stockyards
he purchased a large farm at War-
ren Flats, east of Denison nine
miles. His brother soon joined him
and the two conducted the farm for
many years. It is singular, but the
brother died m the city about two
rears ago under similar circum-
stances.
The deceased married many years
ago, but he and hi^wife separated
alter a brief wedded life. He lived
the li’e of a bachelor ever since. A
few days before his death he made
a will, and having no kin nor heirs,
he bequeathed all of his property to
W. T. Cackley of this city.
Mr. Cackley had been an intimate
friend of the deceased for the past
twenty-five years. Stark was very
much attached to Cackley. When
he visited Denison he neyer failed to
give Billy a call. When he arrived
here from his farm in a dying condi-
tion it was his first expressed wish
to call Mr. Cackley to his bedside.
Mr. Cackley left bis business and
was at bis bedside until the end
came. It was very natural and very
just that he should leave his proper-
ty to his old and tried friend. The
trust could not tall to better bands.
Mr. Stark was buried from tbe
Halton undertaking establishment
Monday afternoon. The pall bear-
ers were old citizens. The inter-
ment was at the Falrview cemetery.
George Stark was a Scotchman
by birth and came to this country in
early youth.

hoyt’s comedy co.
No doubt the best, the most popular
repertoire company playing the South is
Hoyt’s Comedy Co., which hat been *e
cured by the managen.ent of the opera
house to play a week’s engagement, be-
ginning Monday, September 22.
The company numbers eighteen peo-
ple and presents a number of new royalty
plays at popular prices. They carry all
their own special scenery and a complete
production is promised of each play pre-
sented. The following is taken from the
Grand Rapids (Mich.) Dally Diapatch:
“Hoyt’s Comedy Company opened
week’s engagement at the Grand opera
house last night, playing to the largest
house of the season. The S. R. O. si_
was displayed early in the evening, and
Manager Miller brought Into use every
available chair that could be had and still
all that came could not be seated The
company consists ot some capable peo-
ple and Is one ot the best popular priced
companies on the road. The entire com-
pany is a capable one, and Manager Mil-
ler is to be congratulated in his selection.
The same compary will remain in the
city the rest of the week.”
