SAVOY NOTES.


Crop PrOspects-Mineral Watcrs-Fine
Educational Facilities Etc.
SAVOY, July III Corrospondcnce.7 T.
This thriving little village, situated on
the line Of tho Texas d Pacific railway,
in the western portion of Fannin county,
with the vast undulating prairics Of the
richest of the black waXy soil on the
south, and the rich, loamy soils of the
Red river on tha north, cannot be sur
passed as Il farming country. Wheat
and oats are turning out magnificent
yield. Corn is as fine aS was ever seen.
Cotton is rather late, but bids fair for an
abundant yield. We have all kinds OF
fruits, subject to this latitude, az fine as
those of any country. Apples grow
line, and grapes of all kinds cannot be
cNcelled. The mineral water recently
discovered here proves to be about of
the same analysis as that of the we'll
known mineral wells of Palo Pinto
county, and their being so beau
TRULY and comfortably situated
that all that is needed is for
some one with little capital
to invest in fitting them up to make thi,
one of the grandest watering places OF
the South, and moro paying invest
ment could not be made.
We have IA school building with ca
pacity for the accommodation of 800 stu
dents. There was enrolled last session
$40 students, and there is expected an
increase of at least 100 the coming SEES
sion. 1t is conducted by Prof. Halsey,
the well known "learned" of North
Texas.
Savoy, with It's rich surroundings,
healthy and pleasant locality, its grand
"'waters Of life," and unsurpassed school
facilities, is destined to be the leading
and popular Vile Of North Texas, is the
decision Of all that have been lucky
enough to Wow its excellence.

A Judge who Wanted the Heirs to
Have Something.


Three Milwaukee lawyers took each q
hand in settling an estate worth $32, 900.
For the arduous services performed these
three lawyers put in bills a~ggregsting
$25, 900. Why they left 81, 900 to the heirs
when they might have put their bills high
enough to have covered that balance, we
are not advised. It may have been a cleri-
cal error. Ii was, of course, expected that,
10 the usual course Of events, the bills
would be allowed. Such bills had been
promptly passed many times, and there
was no reason to apprehend impediments.
1t was, as the lawyers supposed. al under
stood thing that bills for settling an estate
should cover the estate. Then, too, these
three Milwaukee lawyers had heard OF the
Star Route cases and Col. Bliss robust
fees. So they went into court with their
bills, expecting to be reproved for ex-
cessive modesty-a degree of modesty dam
aging to their profession. But they were
disappointed. In fact, they were shocked.
Judge Thomas Drummond looked at the
bills, ascertained the facts in relation to
them, and said: these charges are in
famous. They are such as men who are
scoundrels and thieves at heart would
make. This charge of SIS 900 is cut down
to ST 800, those Of S., 900 each to $500.
Repeat such a piece Of rapine in this court
and l will disbar every one of you"
Wonder what Judge Drummond would
have said to Bliss if he had been in
Brewster's place.
