THE
Mrs. Frank Gooding ot Colbert, I. T.
was here on a shopping tour the past
week.
A woman stepped into a dry goods
house Monday and took up thirty minutes
I of the clerk’s time and finally purchased
tr ef pins. That’s what a lady clerk
tr, Uka a coward, Had. But tha
strangest part of all is to come. He was
triad and put on probation. The women
members, at least a majority of them,
exhonerated him and cast the girl out.
His wife, evidently a strong-minded,
strenuous woman, pushed her investiga-
tion further, and found out that Bud*
weiser had given several female members
of tba congregation the spiritual kiss.
This last waa too much for him and he
fled the town. The young lady leader of
the choir disappeared about the same
time as Budweiser and It U said that at
San Francisco they occupied the same
room as man and wife.
There Is a large clase of people who
when they perform a charitable act want
the world to know It. We never did go
much on this clam The man jr woman
who gives In secret end does not court
publicity Is really the good samartlan.
We hope that when the next legislature
convenes they will pass s law 1
qulring the telephone companies to pay
their employes better salaries. The
Grayson County Telephone Company
pays the ladv operators the niggardly
sum of $iq.oo per month; they go on
duty at 7 o’clock s. m. and come off at 6
p. ra. The majority of the' young ladles
are poor and five entirely on their sal-
aries. We know ot one lady ojSistor
who boards and clothes herself on this
munificent sum of $10.00 per month.
The Old Telephone Company Is even
worse. The telephone companies are
enormously rich and there is 10 excuse
or justification in the poor salaries paid
The operators should at east receive one
Hollar per day and have their hours
shortened.
Miss Sarah Schafer, teacher of Latin
In the Bedford, Ind., high school, was
found In a shed the other morning. The
girl had been sssaulted snd murdered.
The inquiry develops that In a mild girl
flirtation way, she had led a double life.
In Bedford, «he hated the men, and her
room mate believed her to be s man
hater. In Elkhart, her previous home,
she was engaged to several men, flirting
with others, and In correspondence with
more. Very pretty, highly educated,
snd ef pleasing address, the murder and
tlto motive that prompted it, form the
sensation of the day in Indlana-
The Antl'-Osculation society which was
born at Oakland, Cal., is spreading all
over the Pacific slope. Men and women
pledge to stop the kissing practice. It is
claimed that a large number of diseases
are communicated by impact of lips. If
is uid the deadly germ lurks on the lips
of many a pretty female mouth. From
the' hygienic standpoint kissing is all
wrong. What sort of a creature is it
calling himself a man, thst wilt leave a
beautiful woman s victim, when by per-
sistent kissing, the deadly germ might be
kept on the jump until worn out and
made harmless.

HYPOCRISY.
Early last week s negro man by the
name of Johnson was artested heie on a
warrant charging him witn "bootleg-
ging.” Sstnrdsy Johnson was given an
examining trial before Judge Mixon, the
sequence of which was and is rather
startling, to say the least. The prohibi-
tion witness, a man by the name of Jew-
ett, after being sworn and while on the
witness stand, stated that he had given
Johnson $1 with which to purchase s
bottle of wniskey, that the negro soon re-
turned with and delivered to him, Jewett,
the whiskey. On cross examination wit-
ness stated that he came to Denison from
Beils, his home, for the purpose ot secur-
ing s job at the Katy roundhouse; that
he came here of his own accord, paid his
own way, came by himself and had no
other purpose or object in view in com-
ing to Denison other than to get a job at
the roundhouse. The defendant then
placed John Ramsey, a deputy sheriff on
the witness stand, snd in answer to ques-
tions in substance said: “While in Bells
s few day* since Jewett came to me and
stated that he could buy all the whiskey
in DenUon he wanted to. I agreed
with him to pay him $j in cash for each
conviction where he furnUhed the testi-
mony. He came on up to Denison with
me, I paying his way, and after getting
here I gave him a dollar with which to
purchase the whiskey.” On the above
testimony Judge Mixon discharged the
negro, after which papers were issued tor
the arrest ot the witness Jewett for per-
jury. Jewett was immediately detained
by Constable Nichols. He waited the
right of preliminary hearing, and his ap-
pearance bond wa* placed at $400 in de-
fault of which he was remanded to jail at
Sherman, where he was later put by Con-
stable Nichols.

Want* $40,000.00. .
Cap. Ellison, through hU attorney In
the Territorv, has filed a suit against the
Sunday Gazetteer in the sum of $40,-
000.00. He alleges that his picture in the
last issue is a maljcious libel and calcu-
lated to do him great harm among the
fair sex and disturb his contemplated
matrimonial relations. The captain,
judging from the size of his suit, must
think the Gazetteer s railway corpora-
tion. When the jury se es his picture snd
compares it with the original we don’t
believe that they will give him forty cenU.
Conductor Fridell, ot the Southern Pa-
cific, spent Wednesday In the city. He
was en-route to Kansas.
While it is believed to be quite possible
to equal on electric roads in this country
the speed ot r32 miles an hour made on
the Berlin Zossen electric railway, the
experience in that case was hardly such
as to encouiage a repetition. "Looking
forward,” says the only passenger on the
Berlin car, "it seemed as if the line were
tor mile after mile being literally swal-
lowed up by the car. At one place
blow quite as loud as of a fist on a table
was heard on one of the windows. This
was found to be a bird which had been
overtaken in its flight. At the end ot the
run the fiont of the car was found to be
plastered over with flies, bees and other
small insects, as it they had been crushed
under the thumb nail against the glass
and iron.”

rooms at the corner of Woodard street
atd Scullin avenue. A suitable notice of
the deceased will appear in the next issue
of the Gazetteer.
Jacob Landman, proprietor of the Com-
mercial hotel, packed up his g ods and
left for Wichita Fails, this state, last
Monday. He was driven away ts a result
of prohibition; his business principally
depended upon transclent customers,
which tell off after the law went into
effect until he could not make expenses.
Mr. Landman had been in the hotel busi-
ness In this city for about eighteen years,
his children grew up here and one of the
boys is now in the employ of the M. K.
& T. Ry. Co., Mr. and Mrs. Landman
felt that Denison was their home and
they were loth to leave, but the condition
rendered it necessary. The Gazetteer
wishes them success in their new loca-
tion. They are both hard workers and
deserve It.

will be held Felruary 26, for which oc-
casion Denison Chapter decided to In-
vite a special visit from Miss Katie Daf-
fsn, of Ennis, state president ot the
Daughters of the Confederacy, and Mrs.
W. P. Lane of Fort Worth, stale secre-
tary. At the meeting the Chapter ac-
cepted the lot in park which had
been allotted by the Park Association
and decided to at once begin the im-

consist of the erection ot a monument

f Mrs Romo Wilson, who has been a
resident of Denison for the past fifteen

We hear of one dry goods establish-
ment on Main strdfet that has discharged
twelve clerks since the New Year.
Violett, the little daughter of Engineer
Kretsiriger, is recovering from a severe
attack ot the measles.
The goose-bone prophet has gone with
the rest. At the beginning ot winter
the Gazetteer published the prophecy
of the goose-bone, the last one to be
made, thst the present winter would be
the coldest in a great many years, par-
ticularly cold in the southwest. The
winter has been very open and mild. So
much tor the goose-bone prophet.
Fred Klinkman, who went lrom here
to Colorado with his family, is reportr 1
much improved in health and doing well.
The game law is now in effect tn
Texas. You cannot kill deer, turkey,
quail, prairie chickens and doves. A
violation of the law entails arrest and a
fine of no less than $25. The informer
receives $5. There is no limit to the
duck ana snipe killing season fixed by
law, as these fowls regulate the limit
themselves. It would be a good idea to
make an example ot the violators of the
game law. For instance we saw a man
with a bunch of quail last Saturday. He
was liable to arrest and fine.
Col. Chks. O’Maley has had a house
cleaning. It has taken him and his as-
sistants two weeks to clean up the old
rubbish that has been accumulating for
years. It is wonderful where the stuff
all comes from. Charley thought the
other day that he had got hold ot a
corpse. He saw a leg protruding from a
hole, but it turned out to be|a cork leg
that some fellow had "soaked.” Col.
O’Maley has entirely reorganized the in-
terior of his business house. The outlay
represents about $2000 Carpenters,
painters and decorators come high. It is
a pretty and inviting place of business.
It leaks out that at a recent political
gathering in Illinois that Hearst, candi
date for president, packed the house with
his henchmen and paid them $3 each for
shouting. They were so demonstrative
that the chairman was forced to call the
police in, who ejected the ring leaders.
Doctors report a great deal of sickness
ot a mild type in the city.
Not very long ago the writer purchased
milk of a milk wagon. After standing a,
few hours the milk presented a singular
appearance. It was of a blueish tinge
There was no cream on it. It was the
first time in about three years that we
have patronized the milk wagon—and it
will be ti e last.
Dr. J. F. Baker passed a miserable
night Sunday. There was a complete
nervous prostration, and the fami'y was
alarmed tor a time. The Doctor is not
getting along as well as his family and
friends would like. It will be some time
yet before the Doctor is able to be out,
and he may be permanently disabled.
His injuries are more serious than first
determined.
Almost every day people call at the
Gazetteer office and complain that
they do not receive their paper. It is
not the fault of this office. Where is
the fault then? The Gazetteer is get-
ting tired ot the complaints.

[By Rev. M. J. Savage.]
Have I a right, because I happen
to like a certain set of ideas, because
I have been trained in them, be-
cause I have become accustomed to
them, or oecause they are associated
with certain forma and ceremonies
or rituals which are pleating to me
or because they are the foundation
idea ot an organization that I could
conveniently attend or an organiza-
tion that U patronized by my friends,
friends who wish me to go along
with them, have I under these con-
ditions any right to accept ideas as
true that I do not thoroughly, heart-
ily, loyally believe to be true ?
This, I say, ia an intensely practi-
cal quettion, because there are 1 trge
numbers of persons all around us
who are in this state of mind.
Have I a right to support a church
or an organization of anv kind in
holding to or propagating ideas
which do not represent the utmost,
deepest belief of mv soul ? It I do,
I am a traitor to the truth. If I do,
I am false to my own highest nature.
If I do, I am twisting and distorting
my moral perception, I am making
it harder for me to see what is true,
I am teaching myself to be indiffer-
ent to truth. It is a moral and
spiritual evil of wide extent in the
modern world.
No matter what it costs you, be
true — true to your convictioi
Support organizations end institu-
tions which are true to those con-
victions. No matter now whether
you are right or wrong, you must be
true to your best thought where you
are. Learn something better, it you
can, and learn it as quick as you
can; but, while you believe certain
things to be vitally true, stand for
them and stand by them and work
for them and help them in ’heir
power of influence over other minds.
Only so can you be true to God.
true to truth, true to your fellow-
men.
One thing we should- do, then, is
not to find out wbat is popular, not to
find out what is venerable in the
minds of people who are governed
only by traditions, not to find out
what people hold as the result ot
prejudice, but try to find out what ia
true.
Disraeli said one day—and it was
a very shrewd remark—‘‘If you can
find out what is popular opinion,
you will discover that which is
about to pass away.” Because the
leaders of thought are ahead, and
where the leaders are to-day there
the crowd will be to-morrow ; but
the leaders to-morrow will still be
ahead. This is the way the world
goes on.
It is the truth, then, and the truth
only, which is sacred ; but the truth
is not tor its own sake. Not truth
for t.he sake of truth, but truth for
the sake of men and women. Whv
do we wish to find out the truth?
that men and women may think
rightly; and we want them to think
rightly in order that they may act
rightly ; we want them to act tightly
in order that they may be found
healthy? well-doing, in order that
they may find peace, happiness.

Joe Kelley, tor many reasons r-rinc-psl
comedian with Ward &'Vokes, will be
seen on the 15th at the opera house in
the all new version of that musical-cut
up, "The Head Walters.”
The greatest theatrical event of the
season will be put on the boards at the
opera house on the 18th. “The Wizard
of Oz,” is said to be a magnificent p«
grant of pictoral art, feminine beauty
snd novel spectacular surprises, but
has the further merit of a cleverly con-
ceived story with two very original char-
acters, the Scarecrow and the Tin Wood-
man, absolutely without prototypes, in
the field of extravaganza. They are pro-
nounced by the entire metropolitan press
as unique, inimitable and original

felt much worse. Bruno was a very in
telligent and affectionate animal and
protection to the family when Mr. Wheel
