Tread softly, speak gently,
With uncovered head,
Our home is In mourning,
Dear frankie is dead.
Fold gently the dear hands,
The bright eyes are closed,
bow lovely the sweet face
In silent repose.
Then weep not dear ones,
Thy loved ones at rest
Secure from all sorrow,
In the home Of the blest.
There with bright angels,
On the Evergreen Shore,

To part never more.

WACO, TEX. Nov. 10.-The little boy
whose skull was crushed yesterday is i'm
proving and the physicians say his
chances are good. Mr.. J. r. Mobley,
the father OF the little one, is q state
convict contractor and has the removal
of convIcts from the different counties to
the penitentiaries.
Barney Manning, who has been keep
ing a saloon on South eighth street, near
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas aud
Cotton Belt depots, took the key to the
saloon to a ueigbbor barkeeper last FRI
day night and told him to deliver it to
Judge j. c. Walker, who owned the
house, upon which some rent was due.
Manning then told his friend goodbye,
and SAID he was going away. He boarded
the north-bouDd Missouri, Kansas ana
Texas at 2 o. CLOCK, and nothing has been
heard of him since. Judge Walker OBJ
tanned distress warrant and placed it
in the hands of Constable Lee jenkins,
who took charge of the saloon.
More than enough liquors and
other goods were found to satisfy the
rent, and Morning 3 friends are at a loss
to know what induced him to leave. He
has a family, but they accompanied him.
No debt except the rent has yet ap-
peared.

without Single Republican Representative.
Pennsylvania the Only One With Ma
jOrity In the Delegation.
ST. Louis Repu bic.

The lete and almost complete returns
from the congressional districts through
out the country add to the overwhelm-
ing defeat of the Republicans. The
Democratic majority III the next house
will be equal 10 almost one-half of the
entire membership, and eighteen states
will be without a single Republican rep
resentative. Several heretofore strong
Republican states, including Nebraska,
New Hampshire aud Rhode Island, are
left entirely without Republican reprs-
sentatlon, and there are but three Re-
publicuns elected from the South.
Pennsylvania is the only state IN the
Union that voted on 1uesi lay last that
has majority OF Republicans in the del
eRutIon. In the Third Nebraska district
the Farmers Alliance candidate is
elected against both a Republican and IL
Democratic candidate 10y II plurality of
5000. This district is composed OF forty
seven counties. The following table,
con- piled from the latest returns to the
Republic, shows 2S7 Democrats, 81 Re-

HOUSE,. -
They have an official in Pennsylvania
called state factory inspector, whose du-
ties carry him into large manufacturing
and commercial establishments. He in
spected lately John Wanamaker's Pnila-
delphia emporium, about which he tells
just such a story as one would naturally
expect to hear. Among other things, he
found that Sunday school John pays his
female clerks who are expected to dress
well, the muuifcent sum of 81
to IS a week On such wages
they must live, pay carfare, dco-
tor bills, and dress becomingly.
Can young woman do these things, and
perhaps contribute to the support of de-
pendent relatives, on six dollars week?
Is It probable that she will, and live an
for that reason does not hesitate to
call Cheap Johns caravansary
"a great halfway house on the
road that leads to the gilded dens of
vice. VI course JOnu becomes III
effect master emissary and procurer
for such dens, the enemy of virtue, the
friend and patriot of vice and licentious-
ness, a pandar to libertineism, and a foe
to industrious but pennies women. To
Offset all this, if possible, John devotes a
great deal of praiseworthy energy to his
Sunday school, where If they please, he
will be most happy to save the souls Of
those of his unfortunate female employees
who lapse in virtue.
This of course is strong point in
Johns favor, and in the minds of many
honest and plous souls may serve to miti-
gate the harshness of the verdict they
would otherwise pronounce agains. him.
Other Gradgrinds may ruin body and
soul, the unfortunates whom sinister
fate has made their servants, but not SO
John. If he contributes indirectly to
the ruin of their bodies, he stands ready
and ANXIOUS to repair the injury done by
purging their souls clean as driven snow,
and fitting them for habitation in the
realms of bliss. For money, John deals
out salvation, and dates on the exchange.

Shortly after the most intense excite

over the country by current re-

The postmaster general is interested to
some extent in Kansas City enterprises
and the report of his failure caused much
excitement here. The telephones in
newspaper offices were kept juggling all
afternoon and the commercial agencies
were repeatedly questioned concerning
the rumor. Much satisfaction was ex-
pressed when contradiction of the ru-
NOR came over the wires. Last night the
Associated Press sent out the following:
WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. Mar
shall Cushman, private secretary to
Postmaster General Wanamaker, to-day
telegraphed to Philadelphia to ascertain
what foundation there WAS for the re-
ported failure of John Wanamaker and
in reply was informed that there was no
truth whatever in the report.

Mrs. Belle Hunt shortridgs.

OF course everybody in Wise county is
interested in this noted lady, who was
the first white child born in this county,
and who has ever since that notable time
formed a prominent character of its his
tory. Mrs. Shortridge is now in New
York city, where she is making an I'M
paralleled success as a literary genius.
She went there about two months ago,
absolutely unheralded and unknown,
but the latent genius of her nature could
not be kept down, and she has risen to
the top of the ladder, and her produce
tions are sought for and published by
such old sterling publishing houses as the
Harpers and Leslies. Mrs Shortridge
i'll the midst of her f me, does not for
get the land of her birth, and is now en-
gagged in preparing an illustrated article
entitled ''Some Western Types, - which
is 10 be published soon liz Frank Leslie's
monthly. The characters and scenes in
this article will be mostly taken from
Wise county, aud the comparison of the
past history with that of the present is
going to place this county before the
eyes of the world in a manner most
forcible. Mrs. Shortiidge is also en-
gagged in writing and compiling q book OF
poems which will be ornanentally bound
and the cover embossed with the Texas
star. 1t will be a beautiful volume for n
holiday gift, and one that will be treas
ured not only for the worth of the con-
tents, but also for the memories which
cling around its distinguished writer
and which are so dear to the pioneers of
this county. The News is proud of its
privilege of recording the success of this
remarkable Texas woman, and che has
its best wishes, with those of her numer-
Gus friends here, for her continued
success.

4 Great Benefit
I. n-ant H.

The great packing house ut Fort Worth
filed the programme US advertised, and
opened for business on November /. The
great machinery was put in motion, and
in almost the twinkling of an eye ten
large porkers we're killed, dressed aud
made ready for the smokehouse. This
business will be great uenetit to Fort
or,h and this section OF Texas. 1t
opens another avenue OF mo ey-maklng
to our farmers. Heretofore it has been
the aim of the farmer TO grow enough
meat for home consumption. Now few
more acres can be planted in corn and.
turned into fat pOrkers, viii replenish
the family pu Sc at u season when it is
in need. Fort Worth is within easy
reach of this county, and If our farmers
do not avail themselves of this new in
du,try, and make money by it, they will
have no one to blame but themselves.
They can raise the corn, they can RAISE
the hogs, ana they can get the cash for
them whenever they deliver them TO the
packing house in Fort Worth.
