TIE HERALD is called upon to-day
TO announce the death Of another old
and respected citizen of Texas. Il. p.
Bryan, ST., departed this life on the
morning of the 9Th of May, in the
siXty-siXth year Of his age.
Mr. Bryan was born in North Caro-
lima on the nth of May, 1909, and inn
migrated to Texas in 1917, settling in
the eastern portion of the state. In
1870 he moved to Dallas, where he has
since resided. He has been in de-
clining health for some time, and last
winter, in the hope of beneliting him
self, made an overland trip to Mexico.
Though beneficial, the journey failed
to restore him, and he returned home,
u few weeks ago, to die among his
kindred.
Mr.. Bryan was the father Of twelve
children, seven of whom are still liv-
ing, five of them being residents of
Dallas, and embracing in the number
some of or most prominent and prom
ising merchants.
Mr.. Bryan had been consistent
member of the Cumberland Prcsbyte-
rian church for over forty years previ-
Gus to his death. After long and
honorable life, he has been gathered
to his fathers, leaving behind him u
name and record as an honest, indus
trious, christian gentleman that his
descendants may well be proud of, and
which every citizen can emulate with
honor to himself and his postcrity.
Peace to his ashes.

The recent remarks of the Union
General Bartlett at Lexington and the
Confederate General Evans Mt Augusta
meet with words of praise on all sides.
If the press of the country would unite
to scatter broadcast the spirit of the
noble, manly sentiments of the SOL
diers of the two armies, says The Phil
adelphia Inquirer, "a real peace would
be quickly established between the
north and SOUTH" 1t adds: Gre
construction and union, to be
real, must be matters of feeling and
interest, not of legislation. The north
and south must begin to be just, one
to the other, each to recognize the
good there is in each, and to strive to
become better acquainted. They only
want to know each other better to like
each other better, and they only want
the bitterness of the war to be forgot
ten to induce the south as well rs the
north to keep step to the music of the
union. And if decoration day shall
bring this about it should come to be
considered the best of all the days in
the year-the day which brought peace
and good will to once warning brothers
of north and south"

traband Of war. Speaking Of General

Shocking Negroes.

The Lexington (Ky.,) Gazette
thus describes a "right funny scenon
which occurred the other day at one
of tho stations on the Kentucky
Central. A couple of negroes cut 4.
tree down across the telegraph wire
and broke it. The operator came out
at once, determined on ro-onge. He
quietly took his seat and ordered the
negroes to bring the ends of tho wire
together and mend it. Each seizod
end and epd, but the moment they
came in contact there was sharp
electric shook and they let go. II
was raining and the battery was
strong. However tho negroes did
not know where the shock ca me from,
and tried it again. by this time
they wore so wet that tho current
would pass tho clothes of one but
touched tho other. Frightened and
bowildored they brought tho wiros
together again and again each tins
to their great astonishment, an elec-
trio shock convulsed them. And
when tho train started there sat that
operator under the sholtcrN of the
sheltor of tho depot still urging tie
negroes to fresh Efforts.
