negroes advertising for work When
questioned closely one of the negro*-*
stated that he was already employed,
but that he wanted to see if he could
not find employment Tor thirty or forty
negroes around town, mostly young
ones, who needed employment to keep
them out of devilment. This is com-
mendable in these darkies to have the
welfare of their rare at heart, and any
one needing help of any kind will con-
fer a favor on the paper and on those
negroes whise names are added to the
want ad. If they will communicate

brain Is the devil's workshop.” and es-
pecially so when applied to a negro.
It is usually the unemployed negro
that commits crime. A lot of worth-

ace to any community. After one is
offered employment. If he refuses it,
he should be forced to either accept or
leave the community, as be is abso-

The remains of C. X. Sanford, of

Mineral Wells in search of health, and
who died Thursday morning, passed

wife. Mr. Sanford was a young man
of about 28 years of age. and had been
at the Wells but a few days.
Mrs. G. M. Bowie of this city, is the
recipient of a wonderful little curio
or work of art, sent her by a friend,
which came from Ommerammergau,
the home of the Passion Play, and
was carved out of wood by the man
who portrayed the part of Christ in
the last repetition of the play. The

Improving Public Square.
Through the kindness of the man-
agement of the Weatherford Water,
Light & Ice Co., the city is using the
coal tar which accumulates from the
gas machine which they use at the
plant, for the purpose of tarring and
graveling the public square. This is
an experiment, however, and but a
small portion of the square will at this
time be subjected to the coating. Why
this tar will not answer as well as
any other we do not know, and may be,
if it proves itsejf to be the thing the
entire square and probably the main
streets will be given a coating. Many
loads of gravel are being hauled, and
evenly distributed over the layer of
coal tar. which will give a splendid
surface. This tar that is being used
has given the plant quite a lot of trou-
ble in the past, as it accumulates fast,
and has been getting into the water
mains, which has caused considerable
dissatisfaction among the water con-
sumers. If it can he utilized for this
purposes there will be no more exces-
sive accumulation.
