SPRING PALACE NOTES.

Ex-Mayor Janes Z. Tolbsrt and Capt. D. a.
Turner, prssidsnt cf the ice. light and water
company 81 Vernon, among othsrs, are in the
city, in response to President Paddock's invita-
tion to their board of trade to send delegates to
meet our distinguished visitors from the North
and East.
These gentlemen expressed themselves as be-
ing delighted with the Spring Palace and the
hospitality and kind treatment received from
the people OF Fort Worth
They visited the chamber Of commerce and
were highly pleased with the courtesy shown
them by its secretary, Mr.. E. S. Biden.
Mr.. Tolbert thought that another phase of the
Spring Palace, besides that OF advertising the
wonderful resources OF a truly wonderful city,
could be brought out with advantage to all con-
cerned, and that is the educational side of the
exhibition. BE thought that there was no school
book for children like the best one
they can md wide open and speaking to them
OF Texas inside the Palace gates. 1t is an ideE
that the schools from fer and near could easily
not be over estimated. Its an educator that is
fast driving the idea from older heads that the
StSte consists OF vast deserts. Mr.
themselves as satisfied with the way
the premiums had been awarded and that they
were not envious of their neighbors. Their
Of any such feeling. Both these gentlemen
have returned home, but they leave Mr.. A T.
Boyer, prominent farmer OF Wilbarger coun-
ty, and j. II. Eagle of Vernon to attend to their
interests and the exhibits at the Palace.
The valley of the Pecos river was late in COM
ing to the scratch at the great Texas Karporama,
but Reeves county has at last come in, aud she
makes fine showing with what she has. DR..
J. j. Inge Of Pecos City is in
charge, and having something worthy OF in
spection he is proud to expatiate upon the ex-
hioit which his county has placed at the Palace.
The display comprises samples of rye, oats,
wheat, barley and alfalfa, all Of this years crop,
and the showing is marvellous considering the
time of year. The alfalfa, which looks fresh
and green in compact bale, was cut on May
and made a ton and half to the acre.
The same fields will produce four more
crops this year. The wheat Shown is on the
stalk and in sacks. The crop from which these
samples are taken made sixty bushels to the
acre; the oats made eighty bushels per acre; the
rye and barley averaged about thirty bushels.
DR.. Inge says the reason that his section is
not represented with q more elaborate
exhibit IS that his people did not
conclude to make an exhibit OF
any kind until at the last moment, but that If
they had started earlier they might have shown
q greater variety of products than any section of
lis size in the country. The doctor says that
next year the Pecos country will not let the
medal get away from them. They will be pre-
pared for it, and il they produce much more
than what they have on exhibit this year they
will make John Howard hump himself.

like him. made a splendid speech,
containing many valuable sugges-
tions. He said the Sunday schools
very naturally look to the church for
good teachers, and urged the church.
members to identify themselves with the
Sunday school actively, 10y which means
they can accomplish great good.
The subject, Promptness," was in

who made a splendid speech. Among

ject: Relationship OF the Sunday
School Teacher TO tho Pastor" The
Doctor said that he was proud of the OPP
portunity Of speaking to his friends, the
Methodists. He loved to talk TO people
who were true to their own convictions
of right and endeavoring to honor God
and serve His cause. He considered
Richmond grand place to live in
where all the various denomina-
tions are living and working IN the
unity Of iaith-a sincere desire
to honor God. God bless all the
churches and schools in this city. He
elaborated in very earnest and impress
sive mannerthe following points: Teach
ers can never substitute the pastor (;
teachers are largely responsible for the
bearing and manners of the scholars to-
ward the pastor teachers largely re-
sponsible for the attendance OF the schol-
ars on Church worship; teachers should
see their pastors have opportunities to
make the acquaintance of the scholars (;
teachers should cooperate fully and
earnestly with the pastor III securing the
salvation of the scholars. The address
was able and calculatcdto do much good.
