LETTER FROM PROF. WILSON,
DoDD CITY, Texas, Feb. "a, 1888.
o the Editor Of Tn. M.rri.tOwn Gazette:


To the Editor Of The Msrristown Gazette:
To-day I have been answering some
correspondents, duty which should
have been performed long ago. l find
1 cannot write near all the letters in
tended, and have concluded to write to
THE GAZETTE, and thereby perform a
double duty: answer some inquiries,
and, at the same time, fulfill long de-
ferred promise to write for the paper.
AS TO TEXAS.
l like Texas and do not. like Texas.
Some features of Texas life are not at
all pleasant; while others are not only
bearable, but pleasant. The weather is
variable and capricious. This is the
fifty-fourth day of the year. Twenty
two of the days have been raining or
showing. The mud is Gtcfm. Four
horses sometimes stall with an empty
wagon on a level read.

WET WEATHER.

Many well.to do farmers overcome
this difficulty by getting all the hauling
done while the roads are good. The
mud troubles them but little. But a
majority of the people are not ready for
the wet weather; and, when the rain
and mud come, they VOW that they will
not stay another winter in Texas. But
when the sunshine comes, the mud dries
up, the roads become firm, the crops
begin to grow and the people forget the
mud and rain, and think there is no
Such country i'm the world.

A SECOND TROUBLE


here is, that at least one half the people
are not permanent. This half do much
more in the way of talk and buster
than the other half. Hundreds of peo-
pie, men, women aud children, have
come to this part of Texas since Sep
TENDER. Three-fourths of these people
are disheartened. Obi how they abuse
TexasI Most of them were poor; they
came on the railroad aud brought their
all in q few boxes and trunks. They
could get no regular work to do, simply
because il has been too muddy to do
anything. So their lines have been cast
in unpleasant places. As soon as the
work season comes, the men, boys and
girls, too, can get work to do in the
corn and cotton fields, and il they use
economy, they can have a competency
for another winter. There is
ANOTHER SIDE TO THE PICTURE.
A large number of the people who
own farms are q most excellent class of
people. A majority left the Southern
States at the close of the war. They
came when land was cheap. They,
themselves, were Injured to hardships.
They now have their homes paid for,
their farms fenced, good houses, good
barns aud excellent orchards. Such
men are in better condition than they
could get to be in East Tennessee in
fifty years. Ninety-five per cent. of the
land of this county Is capable of being
cultivated, and two-thirds of it is equal
in productive power to river bottoms in
Chucky Bend and Taylor's Bend This
is ne exaggeration. 1 have seen il YER
flied with two ctops. The days of cheap
land is gone by in North Texas. l sup
pose there is not an acre of public land
in FannIn county. Improved farms in
the black lands sell for from SIS TO $25
per acre. 1t is good country for farm
ing. Those who have planted orchards
and raise variety of crops are growing
rich.
THE PROFESSIONS
are crowded. There are more than fif-
ty lawyers in this county. ard more
than one hundred physicians. Some
are first-class and doing well; some are
barely making living. and some
well, don't know how they are doing.
SCHOOL INTEREsTs
are looking up. Still, there is much
confusion in places In school work. A
great many OF the teachers have been
mere adventurers. The people are sus-
picious, and teacher must be tried be-
fore be has any promise of success. I
receive many letters Of inquiry about
schools. can promise nothing till one
comes aud tries. The average Texan
thinks woman Is no good to teach In
the country schools, because she is not
strong enough TO whip hard. Still.
few ladies are making q success. Our
own school is good. We are full Of
work; but do not propose to. enlarge.
We have most excellent school rooms.

evening of December q, an/expect-
ant company of some thirty-five or
forty invited guests was assembled
at the residence Of I. B. Lawyer to
witness the wedding of Mr.. w. F.

the first notes of the wedding march,
all eyes were turned toward the door
through which the bridal party en-
tered. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. 8. NJ. Irwin, of Geneva.
After the congratulations were re-
ceived the happy couple and guests re-
paired to the dining room where a
sumptuous repast was served by the
hostess, Mrs Lawyer. A number of
valuable presents were received from
Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Iowa,
besides home presents. After enjoying

rov Pistol Accident.

1
One of the saddest accidents that
has ever occurred In lola happened on
New Years morning. Several little
boys, among whom were George
Sweet and Guy Sutherland, were play
ing on the ice on Elm creek, south of
town. Mr.. Sussmilch's little boy had
toy pistol, intended for the explosion
Of blank cartridges. The boys, how
ever, had placed loaded cartridge,
22-calibre, In the chamber, and were
trying to fire It at q target. Not being
able to make 1t go of, they finally
began swapping It at each other, ta-
king turn about. After several trials
the pistol was given to Sweet, who
aimed it directly in the face of Guy
Sutherland and pulled the trigger. 1t
proved to be once too often, for the
cartridge exploded, the ball striking
young Sutherland in the middle Of the
forehead. He fell upon the ice uncon-
scious, where he lay for an hour and a
half before the other boys could sum-
mon assistance. He was then taken
to the house Of Mr.. T. Sutherland, his
father, and Drs. Hendricks and French
were called. The ball was found to
have passed directly through the
brain and lodged against the occipital
bone. Death was expected almost
momentarily, but strange to say, he
has rallied, and At this writing-Thurs-
day p. m.-he is in full consciousness,
and slight hopes are entertained of his
recovery. He says that he remembers
seeing young Sweet point the pistol at
him, but did not hear the report. The
sad occurrence is but one more added
to the long list Of toy-pistol tragedies.
