between justice and Injustice.

He was tinniest, when be came to eu
act his | art lu the nffalrs of men
and yet hold as a hero of the most
partial Imagiuution in action and
whin substantial battle, worthy of hb
prowess, was at hand. He hated tie
Ihbigs that creatures of ignoble pur
llose and smaller vanities craved. Hi*'
life wa« Ih;it of a plain man of the
people, who knew their weaknesses
their yearnings, their daily lives aim
their capittities for deeds thatf were
giwxl. I
His sympathies weut out to thosi
who tr-tled with him in Uie heat of Jib
day and time, without any blare ot
trumpets and without leaving in the
train of Ids ministrations, to thosi
who needed Ids help, any reminders ot
obligation that in after years milk-
the all too brief journey of life but a
dismal chronicle in which shadow out
spreads sunshine.
Cons- ions of bis fundamental iiiteg
rity in the eyes of the Master, win
had la ldiined him in comuiandiiu
mold and ordained him with thus,
qualities that make men leaders ot
their kind, lie eared nothing for th*
adulation of men. and yet the love ot
his friends, who held his confidence
was gripi-ed to his very soul, VftUiabli
and priceless, infinitely lieyond esti-
mate or measure.
To say that Fort Worth will mis
him. is to speak in empty phrase am
to indulge a commonplace that b
next to meaningless, for Paul Waple
was a living, virile, personal part, o'
(ids community. Somewhere in Ihi
very foundations upon winch hat
been reared the su|ierstruefure ot
Fort Worth's etaim to pre-eminenei
umOig the cities of Texas, is Insepa-
rably interwoven contributions of ldi
essential wisdom and plenteous boun
ty of purs,-. This Influence amt ex

day. bill the nation ns well of whirl,
lie was a sujierb type of the Ameri
cyn eltiiseii.
He was known and recognized ev
crywliore, as a man of affairs. Ill
compnnkms were among tin* great ot
his time, and these were the first t<
do homage to his memory and , to
mingle their tears with those of hb
friends in lids woeful hour of lament
One of ttiese, ttie chief justice of th-
state, has wired the writer: “1 am
deeply grieved to team of the deplor
aide death of Paul Waples. He was o
noble man and the state cannot af
font to lose him.” Another, a projec-
tor of vast enterprises and a fore
most developer of resources, wires:
"His place In the republic, iu the
eominonweallli. lu his city and iu tin
hearts of his friends, can never hi
filled." And still another, who had
touched el flows with him in the pollt
bod councils of the state, telegraphs:
In the death of Col. Paul Waples
Texas loses one of her foremost build
ers, a patriotic citizen, a prince among
men. With you 1 mourn at the part
lug of a loyal, true friend."
If it necessary that Fort, Worth and
Texas be lifted to an adequate eon
eeption of the loss sustained in tin
departure of this worthy man from
amongst the activities of the hour, tc
quote similar expressions from men
whose opinions are worth while as t<
the part, that Paul Waples played
these iia'ges would be insufficient t,
give space to a tithe of them,
So let it suffice to sa.v in this mo
ment of shock and sorrow, that n

Freddie Welsh is willing to risk
his title in a bout with Johnny Kll-

name the terms for the battle.
T/ow Rowlands, who recently fought

is endeavoring to land a match nt St

New York learns that Tex. Rieard

According to a tip from Washington
there is not a chance of Fielder
Jolies getting Eddie Foster. If ever

is the Griggtnell’s second base star,
for Ills work lust season was nothing
abort of remarkable, he easily out-
