We reached this place the 1st day of
October, coming from HicO, by the way
OF Waco. We haven't had time as yet
to see what business is being done in
this town. We spent several days Ill
HicU, Hau,iltO on county. Hico is indeed
business place. About 250 bales of cot
ton are sold there day. Right now is
the busy season with both farmer ana
merchant. Hico has some vely good
substantial business buildings, built OF
stone. There is little or no dirt that
will do to make brick, and insurance
companies protest against wooden
buildings. We have been told Hico is
the only town in Texas that has

man for their preacher. 1t is said in her
teaching, she makes hell and the devil

tive, and figure the whole Bible out,
ana be done with all of it at once. We
spent night and day in the city of
Waco. AT this place we met Messrs.
ID. A. Dugger and Joseph Dugger, both
OF whom you are well acquainted with.
Through the hospitality OF MIR. ID. A.
Dugger, we were well cared tor. We
also met Messrs. McKennOn and Nc
Kay, both of whom are in drug store
near the heart OF the city, and Mr.,
Willie Bibb, a son of Col. V. +, Bihh,
of Hickman County. Mr.. Bibb seems
to bo doing well, and now thinks he
will visit his dear old father about AmaSs
Waco is the most business town we
have stopped in since we have been i'll
the state of Texas. 1t claims about
Fl GOO Inhabitants. They have the elec-
trio cars here, besides many other city
improvements. We hope to visit Waco
again in week or two, and see more of
the city. Many people in coming to
Texas make failures because they fail
to work and manage as they should.
Man cannot make fortune any where
without some effort upon his part.
Money is not a fruit to be gathered off
of trees when it is ripe. If a man hasn't
home in the states and has to pay high
rents, we think he could more easily
obtain a home in the west. But he who
hasa comfortable home in Tennessee,
or any of the old states, had better be
cOntented with it, as he will not have
the cOnVeniences and the varieties of
things in new country as he would in
an old one. A great many give Texas
hard name because they make failures,
while others say it is the best state i'll
the world because they meet success.
1 am rather inclined to believe we make
life what it is any how.

The Winston Graded Schools, I'M
der the superintendency of Prof. Jno.
j. Blair, will be reopened for fall term
naturalization, Monday September
18th. There are 700 children in
Winston that ought to report for
entrance on this date. Since the
closing of the last session, the new
North Winston building has been
completed and equipped and new in
structors have been added to the
faculty. In matters of thorough
course and high standard, az in
equipments and other advantages
necessary to instruction, the Winston
Graded Schools are unsurpassed by
any like system in North Carolina.
The graduates Of these schools enter
fine Freshman class at the University
of North Carolina and the Senior
classes at most of the State Female
Institutions and sustain themselves
with remarkable credit. Parents
cannot Over-estimate the advan-
tages of this system. instruction is
here offered under moral influence by
talented educators, to ignore which,
by keeping their CHILDREN from this
or other schools, is to deprive them
of that on which future welfare
largely depends All of the instruct
ors in the Wisnton Graded Schools
are graduates of high Institutions
many of them receiving special in
struction on methods of teaching
under recognized leaders in the edu-
catiOnal world.

Mr.. 81. Nadlng brought the news

William Nading, one mile south
west of Salem, was set fire to and
totally destroyed Monday after
noon. A small boy who is in the

strike a match to the hay. The boy
ran after Mr.. Nading, who had star,
ted to town, to give the alarm but
the latter was too far gone.
The perpetrator of the mean act
made his escape.
The loss to Mr.. Nading is quite
heavy. There was over $500 worth
of machinery in the barn which was
also consumed by the flames, be-
sides oats and other feed stuff For.

the Treasury has somewhat increased

that its receipts for the past week

Cotton has advanced three-six-

producers, in all probability, if con-

A heavy increase is seen in trade at
st. Louis, country merchants buying
literally, and trade is improving at
Kansas City, and at Minneapolis and

grocery trade is better, but other
business only fair, and very little inn
