10 equip a flrst-olass Indian discovered
that his had no bow and arrow. Forth
With Mr.. Howard set about to supply the
deficiency, and now the red man carries
the emblem of his former occupation,
though he still wears that look commonly

The vegetable division of the Spring
Palace, presided over by Mr.. ID. Rioh-
ardson of Baird, Callahan county, is as
Stunning gratifying shape to its man
ager. It now has twenty sight different
kinds Of vegetables and fruits on its
shslveEAAs fine q line OF good things as n
man could wish to meet. Looking over
these, it is not difficult to understand
how a man might forswear the use of
flesh and become vegetarian.
One Of our own legal friends
furnished US this division yesterday
with the finest potatoes yet placed in the
building. The fiHest lettuce and turnips
come from Tarrsnt county. Old TarrAnt
can do 1t IL she tries. Bolivar Point
comes in with large watsrmelons, or
anges, okrs, tomatoes, etc. To our
visitors from the North this display is
particularly attractive, and many are
the expressions of pleased surprise at the
quality of eur vegetables and fruits.
Geographers are net infallible, as
President Paddock said in his speech at
the banquet a few evenings since. The
Peoos river valley, which until recently
was comparatively sterile, owing to q
want of water, new comes to the front
with samples Of white wheat OF the crop
Of 1890 that measured sixty bushels per
acre, and which John Howard acknowl-
edges to be as good as that of the famed
Wichita valley grain. The rye, barley,
millet and clover from this valley are
also Of the first quality and yield largely.
Mr.. L. NJ. Lugginhsimer of Clsburne,
who is also largely interestedin Wichita
Falls, called in at the SPRING. Palace on
his return from the latter city. He Is
highly pleased with the Palace, and
thinks Texas will not want for capital
| and farmers.
Mr.. R. P. Lowe. general agent of the
Mobile and Ohio railway, was a visitor
at the Palace yesterday, and expressed
himself as being highly pleased and
gratitied at the work the Palace is doing.
He says such well directed efforts and
for SO noble purpose is sure to meet
with reward. II you only had an army
of workers like my friend John Howard
| of Wichita, Texas would soon have even
more of her vast resources taxed.
John Howard laboring under load of
gold medals and decorations, last night
was met by q GAZETTE man. When
| asked II the decorations were heavy he
said: eyes. l wish you would through
the columns Of your paper AJAX the people
of my county to send one of the many
bellies of Wichita down hero to help
me carry them. Perhaps you do not
know It, but it is a we'll known fact just
