It was a jolly and congenial
crowd that left Saturday morn-
ing for Galveston on the great
excursion. It was impossible for
the Leader to get the names of
all, for there were eighty-six
tickets sold at this place, repre-
senting receipts to the railroad
of nearly three hundred dollars.
There were six coaches in the
train when it left here, and those
who witnessed the crowd start-
ing from this place said that there
was still a little standing room
left. It was necessary to run the
train in several sections from
Temple south to Galveston, but
that made no sort of difference
with the excursionists, ,as
they were determined to have a
time and to get the worth of the
money spent for transportation.
The following were* among those
who went from Lampasas: R.
McFadden and family, Ed Easters
and family, M. Little and family,
Hosea Bailey and wife, N. W.
Charles and wife, Mrs. Jack
Martin and two daughters, Misses
Mattie Frazer and Lizzie Town-
sen, Capt. Skinner, Jack Town-
sen, John Earnest, Robert Fra-
zer, James Frazer, Huling and
Tilford Bean, James Waggoner,
F. E. Stone, Oscar Mace, J. W.
Harvey, Ethel Whitfield, Colum-
bus Greenwood, Mr. Warner,
Jasper Storms, Henry Jumbo and
Wade Reed, the last three col-
ored gentlemen.
H. F. DICKASON,
DENTIST.
Office over Darby & Cautlien.
Lampasas, Texas.
Livery and Transfer^
I am still running the livery
and transfer business at the old
stand. Mr. Jess Peebles has
charge of my carriage and will
meet all trains promptly. Phone
your orders for livery, carriage
transfer or baggage to me.
J. T. BERRY.
That Throbbing- Headache.
Would quickly leave you, if you used
Dr. King’s New Life Pills. Thousands
of sufferers have proved their match-
less merit for sick and nervous head-
aches. They make pure blood and
build up your health. Only 25 cents.
Money back if not cured. Sold by Key
Bros.
The Question,
WHERE SHALL I GO FOR THE
SUMMER?
Is very easily answered.
To the North, East or West via the
fast “Katy Flyer,” a wide vestibuled
train with buffet sleepers and Katy re-
clining chair cars, seats free.
Apply to any Katy agent ' and they
will cheerfully give you full informa-
tion as to rates, time-schedules, etc.,
or write to W. G. CRUSH, General
Passenger and Ticket Agent, Dallas,
Texas.
Troublesome to the Army.
During the civil war, as well as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea was
one of the most troublesome diseases
the army had to contend with. In
many instances it became chronic and
the old soldiers still suffer from it. Mr.
David Taylor, of Wind Ridge, Greene
county, Pa., is one of these. He uses
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
diarrhoea Remedy and says he never
found anything that would give him
such quick relief. It is for sale by Key
Bros.

W. S. KEENAN.
Wm. Joseph left Sunday morn-
ing for St. Louis, where he will
purchase a stock of goods for his
house here. He will probably
return in ten or twelve days, and
then he will begin to tell the peo-
ple -what he has purchased. He
will use the columns or the pages
of the Leader for this purpose.
Keep an eye on this paper, if you
would know where to find bar-
gains.
Eldridge & Fields sold to P. S.
Guilhem Saturday twelve mutton,
not the pick of their flocks, but
good, round, fat fellows, and the
total weight was 1352 pounds, or
a little more than one nundred
and twelve and a half pounds to
the sheep. The average weight
of a good mutton is 90 pounds,
and this shows what Texas and
and Lampasas county can do
over and above the average of all
other parts of the world. It pays
to raise the best, whether of grain,
cotton, wool, sheep, mutton,
horses, hogs or other products.
The Picture of Hope.
Beyond this beautiful rippling
stream, just over the edge of a
grassy knoll there blooms a rare
and richly tinted flower. They
tell us that it is so rare and beau -
tiful that it might have blushed
to life at the touch of an angel’s
kiss, and caught its rosy flush
direct from a burning star. Be-
yoncLthe pathless mountains that
lift their blue peaks in the fad-
ing distance they tell us there is
a charming valley that drinks the
diamond dew of the morning and
bathes in the liquid sunbeams,
clad in a verdure of everlasting
green and dotted all over with
flowers of every hue and shade.
Beyond the blue waves of the
“pathless ocean” they tell us
there is a clime from which the
mellow sunlight of spring never
departs—that is laden with the
song of birds of note and plum-
age, and where tropical fruits
ripen daily for whoever will
gather, and peace, ease and
plenty rule the lives of a people
that never heard of war or pest-
ilence. Beyond the curtain of
darkness that hangs over this
gloomy night, there dwells a pic-
ture of “morning”—a picture of
fresh, new life that seems to wake
and move and breathe away the
mists, and they tell us its fore-
ground is Hope and its back-
ground is pleasure. Beyond the
cares and struggles—the fears,
the disappointments, the bitter
trials and the wearying labors of
time we are taught that there is
an eternity for us whose higher
possibilities give promise of
calmer hours and sweeter rest.
