Little Girl Burned to Death.
Saturday morning the little six-year-
old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry
Smith, living about four miles east of
Springtown, was burned so badly that
she tdied from the effects of the burns

ily washing, had instructed an older
daughter to put soap in a kettle of
boiling water in the yard under which
a fire was burning, when the'little six-
year-old daughter insisted on helping
do the. work. In dropping the soap
in the kettle her clothing became ig-
nited and before her mother could get
to her she was enveloped in flames,
death following soon afterward. Bur-
ial took place Sunday afternoon in the

Hobson will address the citizens of
Weatherford, April 6, 7:30 p. m., at
the jpourt house.
The name of Capt. Hobson is known
to every school boy and girl in our
country, and those of us who are older
remember very well the thrill that
was sent through the nation when
CapV. Hobson, tb^n a lieutenant in the
navy, with a few like-minded com-
rades, sank the steamer Merrimac, In
the face of lead-Vomiting guns from
both the Spanish fort and fleet. Capt.
Hobson is a man who dares to do
things, and for that reason he has be-
come the Idol of the American people.
He Is one of the great foes of the li-
quor traffic.
There will undoubtedly be a great
crowd to hear Capt. Hobson on this
date, and the committee on arrange
ments, composed of H. L. Moseley, R.
E. Knox, E. A. Can®, J. M. Richards
and X J. Stoker, is making every ef-
fort to properly advertise the coming
of gapt. Hobson, In order that he may
be greeted by a representative crowd
of Parker county citizens.
The country people are especially
Invited to be present, and are assured
that every effort will be made to pro-
vide them with .seats and afford them
every possible facility for hearing this
distinguished advocate of national pro-
hibition.
Captain Hobson bps many admirers
In Parker county, and it is probable
there will be a large crowd out to
, hear him on the evening of April 6.
Weatherford, the editor of the Herala
had the pleasure of a drive over the
grounds Monday afternoon. Never
having played the game of golf, it may
not be pqssible for one who does not
understand the game to be enthused
over the golf links as laid out on the
Weatherford course, but certainly one
can appreciate the beauties of nature
when viewing pretty landscapes,
green pastures and budding trees.
Such are the sights one beholds when
surveying the Weatherford golf links,
standing upon the elevatiofl near the
last hole as the players complete their
pounds.

Ice Reported Tuesday Morning.
The strong north wind that prevail-
ed for several hours Monday after-
noon and continued mostly through
the night, perhaps saved a great deal
of vegetation, as otherwise a heavy
frost would likely have fallen, ice
was reported In many places, with the
thermometer as liter as 30 degrees.
Some citizens report beans and po-

Extraordinary Attraction at Lyric.
The scourge of wealth, when im-
properly used, is vividly portrayed in
Essanay’s current feature, “Satan's
Private Door,” which will be the at-
traction at the Lyric theater, tomor
row. A story well worth while !s un-
folded here. It sounds a trident warn-
ing of the perils of riches. It cheers
the lowly in pocketbook by proving
yiat all that glitters in this world is
not necessarily gold. Photoplay - pat-
rons undoubtedly will be pleased to
find Mary Charleson In this produc-
tion’s leading role.. This pretty little
actress is easily identified hy her val
iant work as Henry. B. Walthall’s lead-
ing woman in “The Truant Soul,” and
other recent vehicles of this great ac-
tor. The good effect of Mr. Wal-
thall’s tutelage is shown in “Satan’s
Private Door.” His pupil has done the
most pleasing work Of her career here.
The pictured theme in this production
Is decidedly a novel one. Satan’s pri-
vate door hangs on hinges of misused
wealth.

W-AXsIDIRO:
plot of ground, cohering some fifty
acres or more, is today one of the
most sporty golf links to be found in
the state. The links were laid out by
an expert who has performed this ser-
vice for many dubs in the state, and
was his opinion that the Weather-
ford grounds would attract many vis-
itors. The work of clearing the
grounds and establishing the different
T’s and holes has been under the sup-
ervision of Procter Brevard. This
work is now about completed, after
which complete organization of the
club will be effected and the grounds
turned over to the proper officials. To
clear the grounds tons of rocks have
been moved, which have been placed
in ravines and low places, underbrush
has been removed and the trees trim-
for ^entertainment.
