fact, I may say that the work of re-
clamation and conservation is yet* in
its infancy. This becomes apparent
when we realize that more than 80,
000,000 acres of overflowed and
swamp land* may be reclaimed with
proper drainage, also that there are
40,(X)0.000 acres capable of reclama-
tion by irrigation. —*
“The improvement of our canals,
rivers, lakes ami harbors would be
of untold benefit to the nation in in
creased transportation facilities, while
good roads and national highways,
for the lack of which the loss to the
farm area alone is more than $500, •
000,000 a year, would add millions to
our wealth. Another vital question, is
the protection, restoration arid con-
servation..#^ our forest lands, which,
■Culler proper care, could be made to
yield wood and lumber supplies in-
definitely. We have a great Vork be-
fore us and now is the time to begin
in earnest.'’

will come direct from her home.
Miss Mary Bell Mullford, also a
new teacher in Orange, is a recent
graduate of Southwestern, and comes
highly recommended as a capable and
agreeable teacher.
Miss Gertrude Gilbert will have
her first year in Orange, but comes
with experience in Austin, Marble
Falls and Stamford, from which
schools she comes with good recom-
mendations.
Miss Gertrude Hathaway, of Pal-
estine, has been a successful teacher
in her home city, and has just re-
turned from Chicago, where she
spent the summer doing educational
work in Chicago University.
Miss Jean Carr spent some weeks
in studies at Southwestern Universi-
ty and is now at her home in Kerr
ville, where she once taught.
Miss Nellie Buttery, of Llano, who
taught in Temple schools the past
year, was trained in the primary work
at Peabody Normal in Nashville,
Tenn., and has had wide and suc-
cessful experience as a primary
teacher.
Miss Lilia D. Davis, of Waco, is
also one of the new teachers, and the
special efforts of the board, aided by
the experience of the superintendent,
are guarantees that all are up to the
high standard the board is determin-
ed to maintain.
Mrs. W. E. Roberts, of Orange
the supernumerary, is an old teacher
in this city, and a very competent
instructor.
Altogether the board has secured
a splendid corps of teachers and be
gin a new year under most auspicious
conditions, with but one exception
perhaps—the crowded condition of
the school buildings, and the need
of a new, larger, more up-to-date
building.

usual, and more appreciative The
motion pictures were exceptionally
fine "The Erring Jew," who was
kept walking, taken from “The Wan-
dering Jew,” was an interesting and
pathetic story, and the pictures clear
and distinct. The ice-bound falls of
Trolbattan was beautiful in the ex-
treme—a charming presentation of
the great Swedish waterfalls in the
midst of a Northern winter.
The two comedians and dancers

One thing I miss here that Orange
abounds in, and that is the beautiful
flower gardens with their great va-
riety of fragrant roses. I’ve seen only
six roses since my arrival, and they
came from the residence across the
street. Nothing but trees, palms and
cacti, and I wonder why a place can
be so beautiful without flowers.

A RAILROAD ACCIDENT
Local Yard Engine of the Orange A
Northwestern Haa a Mishap.
The local yard engine of the
Orange & Northwestern railroad suf-
fered a mishap this morning which,
had it occurred just a moment or two
later, might have been serious in its
results. Just as the engine was go-
ing on the trestle above the Miller-
Link Lumber company's rollway, a
plug in the boiler New out with such
force as to completely dislodge the
ash-pan from under the boiler and
blow open the fire door. The ash-pan
as it was blown loose was caught
under the tender and before the en-
gine could be stopped the front
trucks of the/ tender had left the
track. Had the accident occurred
jpst a moment later, the engine
would have been mi the trestle and
the tender might have been turned
over into the river. A section crew
was hastily summoned, with assist-
ance from the shops also, and after
sevarsl hours arduous work, the ten-
der was gotten back onto the track,
and the engine pulled onto a siding
for repairs.

Good Runnsr.
Sheriff Johnson this morning re-
ceived from Vinton a request to ar-
rest and hold a negro named Mat
Wilson, wanted in Vinton, La., for
seriously 'assaulting a white man

started out. Mr. Davis soon located
him and when the negro found out
what was up he struck out on a run
with the deputy sheriff close on his
heels Davis caught the culprit and
put him behind the bars The Vinton
sheriff came over on the Oriole at
There has just been perfected
Orange an investment company
which has some of the principles
the building and loan associations
which have thane so much in Texas
towns and cities to build and develop
the towns, and at the same time to
aid men of limited means to secure
homes on plans of monthly payments.
A man may own a good lot for
home, but be unable to get the money
to bqild a home on it from a national
bank,- because the national bank can
not take land as collateral.
The East Texas Investment com-
pany, just organized, can loan on
land or other good security. Its cap-
ital stock is $36,000, made up of sixty
shares and forty shareholders. It will
be authorized to discount land notes,
loan money on real estate, or any
other good security, and any man
owning a lot suitable can through
this company secure the construction
of a home oYi it and be permitted to
pay for the same in monthly pay-
ments of reasonable sums.
The business of the company will
be managed by a board of three trus-
tees, elected annually. The officers
and trustees are for the first year
as follows:
J. R. Turnbull, president.
W. L. Joiner, secretary and treas-
urer. and
M V. Anderson.
These are among our most ' promt
nent young business men, and the
shareholders embrace bankers, law-
yers, mechanics, clerks, doctors and
merchants..
As stock may be subscribed for and
paid for at five dollars a month, thus
maturing the stock in ten year* at
$5 per month on a $600 share,
should encourage young men and
salaried men, to in that way make
saving investments, as every dollar
paid in is earning a good percentum
every month
No stockholder will be permitted
to cast more thau one vote in the
control or election of officers, even
though he may own more than one
share. __
The office is at present with the
Orange National Bank.
An Intercostal Enthusiast.
J, C. Gray, of Vinton, La., known
all over this section to everybody as
"did’’ Gray, was an Orange visitor
yesterday, returning home last night.
Mr. Gray is one of the old resident*
of Calcasieu parish and is an enthu-
siast on the subject of the inter-
coastal canal He thinks the Lake
Charles folks ought to get busy and
help on the proposition to make the
canal twenty-five feet deep from the
Calcasieu to the Sabine. He is very
much in favor of the upper route, that
would put the intcrcoaatal canal into
the Sabine .river near Orange and
states that he i» positive that every
foot of the right of way necessary
can be secured without any cost
whatever to the government
