Though the bathing season in Gal
weston harbor ends as early as October,
party Of men and women Went out by
steamer to an island in the Gulf on the
evening of October 20, last year, for the
purpose OF testing the salt water. Among
the ladies were Mrs. B. II. Davis, the
wife Of Major Davis, Of the town OF
Bryan. Mrs. Davis, and her sister, Mrs.
N. b. Davis, were left by their husbands
in charge of NJ. w. McCraw, who was
from Bryan also. After an enjoyable
bath, and when the time for the depar-
ture of the steamer had come, Mrs. b:
II. Davis was missing. Her sister had
seen her up to her chin in the water a
few minutes before, and the news soon
became noised about that the lady was
drowned.
The affair caused much excitement
throughout the night, and on the follow
ing day it was talked about III every
house in Galveston. A large reward
was offered for the recovery OF the body,
and long search, by means OF boats
and seines, was made. A week passed,
and no clew to the mystery could be
found, Mrs. Davis was given up as dead.
But a few weeks ago, seven months
having elapsed, Major Davis received a
letter from his wife, who had landed III
New York after seemingly endless
cruise in merchant vessel, by which
She had been picked up. She had gone
beyond her depth while bathing, and
had hoated with the tide for an hour
when her means attracted the attention

Friday is a Lucky Day for

Friday is regarded by the vulgar as
an unlucky day, whereas for Americans

fortunate of the seven. 1t was on Fri

Columbus sailed from the harbor OF
Palos for the New World. 1t was on
Friday, the 18th of October, 1892, that
he first saw the land after siXty-tiv e
days of navigation. 1t was on Friday,
the 4th day of January 1899, that he
started on his return to Spain to an
nounce to their Catholic majesties the
glorious result of his expedition, and on
Friday, the 18th of March, 1890, that
he disembarked for Andalusia, 1t
was on Friday, the 18th of June, 1894,
that he discovered the American CONT
nent. On Friday, March 5th, 1897,
Henry VII of England gave John Cabot
his dispatch which resulted in the dis
coyery of the North American continent
On Friday, September 6, 1865, Menu
founded St, Augustine, the oldest town
in the United States. On Friday,
November 10, 1920, the Mayhower first
disembarked few emigrants on Amer
lean soil at Provincetown. and Oh
Friday, December %, 1920, her passen-
gers tinally landed on Plymouth Rock.
It was on Friday, February %, 1899,
that George Washington was born. 1t
was on Friday, June Is, 1915, that the
battle of Bunker Hill was fought, and
on Friday, October s, 1777, that the sur
render Of Saratoga took place, which
event decided France to give her aid to
the Americans. The treason of Arnold
was discovered on Friday. Yorktown
surrendered on Friday, and on Friday

TWAS in Vicksburg, in the back yard
Of one of our residences, where lived a
yo1pg lady-we will be excused for
suppresslng her name. In this SAME
ward was a yearling calf which had
never known want OF Il care, having
been petted and fed liz early life by this
yo,1ng lady. OF course 1t soon began TO
like her and would follow her around
the yard as gentle and affectionately as
q dog, Recently, while this young lady
had company and was exhibiting some
of the antics of her calf, she conceived
the idea of utilizing it by learning 1T to
ride her around the yard.
Having no saddle she substituted an
old rug, and looking around to see II
there was newspaper reporter IN sight,
and being satisfied that there was not,
Jumped astride the animal, while her
company held it by rope that had been
improvised as bride. Feeling all
right and safe she instructed her friend
to turn loose. The calf backed up a
few feet, turned around, gave blate,
made lunge forward and cut out. He
ran around the yard twice in a circle,
but. as misfortune would have 1t, on the
second round he ran too close to the
fence and striking beehive upset 1t,
little knowing the trouble 1T had created
in that particular part OF the yard.
The unsuspecting but excited calf
with it's ambitious but decidedly uneasy
rider, (who was anxious to be again on
terra firma) attempted to make the third
turn Of the track, which proved to be
tie "home stretch" Before they knew
where they were they rushed into the
swarm of angry bees, they. passed
+hrnnph it-the calf bIated q farewell
brother Crawford" lit out double quick,
struck the picket fence and went
through, leaving the young lady
on the other side, and she-well the
doctor ordered half dozeu boxes OF
Russia salve and bathing tub OF arnica
water, while the neighbors were paying
their respects to the young lady who
was playing company and ringmaster.
The calf, when last heard FROM, was
making twenty miles an hour down
Halls Ferry road.
