Eleven boys bad eleven strings

plode at the same time.
Tom DeBerry bad the first one
and when they set fire to them
and ran back, he discovered that
his was the only one burning.
He decided to go back and put
in a new fuae ao they would all
explode together, and upon
reaching it, the dynamite ex-
ploded.

TSs eaUrgeueAt of the Salvation

yis of Texas respond liberally In the

Which was originally intended to ac-
Sommodate from eighteen to twenty

gate almost forty—maternity cases
and child-' i tco.
' JfBnsIg i Ida L. And *rson. the rna
torn la charge, never turns away
aa uafortuna e girl who nee<M the
fVotection and the care of the home
TU manage somehow" Is her answer
to every application. But In ordsr
to provide for nil of the girls, sh i
3Rj tea had to convort all of the porchei
to to outdoor sleeping rooms and no*
this apace la also sited.
’ This San Antonio Rescue Home
flares for girls from points through-
out Texaa, Oklahoma and Louisiana
pa It is the only home of this char-
acter maintained by the Salvation
anor la this district. It is planned
to establish similar homes In Okla-
homa and Louisiana with the money
raised in the Home Service Cam-
paigns in those states. Wheo these
Other homes are established It 1*
hoped that the Ban Antonio home
with the propoeed $75,000 addition,
will be Urge enough to care for all
Teams girls who should be sent
Ihnre. Three girls h'hve been sent
down to the home rrom Dallas alone,
within the last three weeks.
In her report for Ust year, En-
atgn Anderron shows that seventy-
t • six girls were eared for during the
i year of. which number forty-six were
returned to their homes or friends,
fifteen were placed In situations and
three we;e married. The total num-
ber of children cured for during the
year was forty. Ove.- 7,000 beds
ware occupied during this period and
ver $1,000 meals served.
Ensign Anderson teaches the girls
uadar bar cage to become good
housekeepers. “At first," she says,
“they are not Interested, hut gradu-
l ’ ally when they find that we take a
genuine interest in them they try to
learn whatever we wish to teach
' thorn. I make It a rule that they
L phall loarn something new every day
even If It is the very simplest task.
I After they have finished their re-
j guired three months’ stay in the
hemp, they know the fnndamenUls
1 of good housekeeping, at least.’*

wearing apparel for the coldest days.

The fuel situation in Deport is
becoming critical. There is very
little wood in town, and a few
families received a load of coal
each out of the car that was ship-
ped here a month ago. The oil
mill has only enough for a few
more days running. A. C. Nix-
on, the coal dealer, has several
cars of coal on the track at Par-
is, but on account of their weight
and the condition of the track,
the P. & Mt. P. is afraid to at-
tempt to deliver them. It took
three days to get a car for the
oil mill' from Mt. Pleasant re-
cently , it weighing fifty-four tons.
None of the oil dealers have any
coal oil.
Another heavy rain visited this
section last Sunday, but it has
been clear and cool every day
since. A fresh norther blew in
Wednesday,and there was plenty
of ice Thursday.

Bertram Grant had a bad fall
Monday night. A pat t of the gut
ter near the steps on his front
gallery was torn lose, and in or-
der to keep the water away from
the house he placed a board on
the steps for it to run down. He
walked out on the gallery after
dark, forgetting about the board
and stepping upon it he took a
flying shoot to the ground. No
bones were broken, but he was
so sore the next day he could
hardly get about.
Ector Dodson, who has been
making his home with J. F.
Barnes, received a telegram
from Taylor Tuesday that his
brother, Odif, had been killed by
a train at that place at three
o’clock that afternoon. Both his
arms and legs were-cut off, and
the body badly mangled. Before
going to Taylor a month ago he
was employed by Mr. Barnes,
and made bis home with him.
Ector left immediately for Tay-
lor.
