WHY NOT MEET IN BONHAM
Texas Corn Growers’ Association
Seeking Place to Hold
Next Meeting
The Favorite is reliably in
termed that the executive commit-
tee of the Texas Com Growers’ As
sociation will meet in I>allan on
the 21st of this month for the pur
pose of selecting a place and per-
fecting arrangements for the regu-
lar mid-winter meeting of the as
sociation, which is held In Janu-
ary.
It would certainly be a nice
t hing for Bonham to secure this
convention, aud would not only be
a good advertisement for the town,
but a great help to the country at
large. We would suggess that the
Business Men’s League of this city
have a meeting at ouce and extend
a cordial invitation to the commit-
tee to hold their mid winter con-
vention and corn show in Bonham.
This association has accomplished
great things in some sectioas of the
Btate where it has convened and
can do likewise for Fannin county.
BRYAN GETS AN OVATION
Deep Water Meeting at CMeago
Has as Great an Attendance
As On Opening Day
Chicago, TIL, Oct. 8.—The sec-
ond session of.the Lakes-to-the-
Gulf Deep Waterways Association
was attended today by as great
and enthusiastic an audicucc as on
opening day.
Wm. J. Bryau was the magnet
of the second session and his ap-
pearance on the platform was the
signal for a tumult that forced him
repeatedly to bow, and he had to
wait many minutes before deliver-
ing his speech.
After the roll of Btales were
called and ten-minute addresses
were delivered by several delegates
the session adjourned to take part
in an automobile parade.
Mr. Bryan addressed the Evans-
ton students at the Northwestern
University cam pus in theafternoon.

Little waflfeAbfy were, the din

a home far from the center of sor-
rows and wow that they were born
unto.
On the way to St. l*aul from
New York a special car with these
babies passed through Milwaukee.
With the children thefe were sev-
eral Bisters of Charity aud two
trained nurses.
The Home Finding .Society of|
New York is sending them West
to deal them out into good homes
among the farmers near St. Paul.
When, the conduetor came out of
the cars there was a suspicion erf
moisture in his eyes.
“I won’t go through there
again,” he said. “They’reall hap-
py, aud all that, but it's so pitiful.
They all wanted to shake hands
with me and caught hold of my
hand and looked up at me and

are taught to do it.
“There are alt kinds, and they
arc just a* sweet as most twines
are. It’s a shame that they will
never know a real mother or fath-
er.”
The Bisters made the babies’ beds
by placing I man Is across from seat
to seat, for the special car was not
a sleeping car. Several tallies were
piled into one “bed.” The one
car accommodated the sixty-seven,
besides the uuises and sisters.
Long pieces of sheeting wore
stretched across the tops of the
scats to cover the ‘beds’ and keep
out the cinders and dust.

Defeated New York ia the Final
Game af Season--A* Immense
Crowd Witnesses Game
In an exciting game of bone tall
Chicago defeated New Yoik yee
tOfday in the the final game of the
Bajtoon. The game wan witnessed
by the largest) crowd iu the history
of base ball. People were at t hie
gteund# before daylight ant# by 12
O’clock the sale of tickets hod
stopped. By 1 o’clock every avail-
able seat aud every inch erf space
on the ground was crowded with a
seething mass of humanity. It was
estimated that fully 20,000 people
were outside the park ami denied
admittance. When the game started
this crowd broke down the firmer
aad poured into the ground. The
streets of both Chicago and New
York were filled with people who
crowded around the newspaper of-
fices and blilletin boards where the
returns were announced. In Chi-
cago business was practically sus-
pended, and when the Cub* were
announced a* winners the town
went wild. Btaid business men,
bonkers and financiers helped to
■well the jolly crowd, many of
wAora were hatless and coutleos
and paraded the principal streets
of the business section. I a New
York two men were killed during
the game, one of w horn became so
excited that he fell off a telegraph
pole upon which he was watching
tlie game, and broke, his nook'.
All of Chicago’s four runs were
scored iu one inning, the third,
when the mighty Matthewson
weakened. Wiltse was put in to
pitch in the eighth inning and was
not scored on. Chicago used two
pRchers also. Pflester started in
to pitch, but was yanked after one-
third of an inning. Three-fingered
Brown was put in and yielded only
three hits.
This game gives the pennant to
Chicago, and to—or»w the series j
