Sherman, June 22.-Messrs. Eubank &

had broken off the lock to their powder
msgszine, and lofts Texas & Pacific spring
lock in its place without any key. They
balanced up their powder and found that
none had been stolen and they are al a los,
to account for the breaking in.
Il is learned to-day from reliable
source, that enough money has been sub
scribed to build the narrow gauge road
from this place to Mount Pleasant, where it
connects with narrow gauge road running
into Louisiana, thus opening up direct
line through the richest section
of this state to louisiana

the exact time when work would be com,

ANOTHER ACC UNIT.
The narrow gsug- railroad from this place
to Mt Pleasant is now IA assured fact. II
will be called the Louisiana, Texas & Great
Southern, and will connect with a system OF
narrow gauge rosds at Mt. Pleasant running
to 81. Lous, A Paris man, who subscrbes
$50 600 stock is to he made president, ano
q gainesville man is to be made
vice president, Enough stock has been
taken TO build 1t that far, and sometime in

This road opens up q rich section of country

interest Of this section at heart, and who
know how to push things through cue

that the symbol is derived from the
Latin phrase suos sulatans greeting
those within jurisdiction. Syzgyg-
