PRESIDENTS SISTER.

INJURED IN A RUNAWAY.
\ Message Sent to President Harrison that
She is at Deaths Door-How the
Sad Accident Happened.

CINCINNATI, ONO, April 26.-This even
ing telegram was sent to President Harri-
son on the Pacific coast and to Mr.. John

Thesaccident happened this afternoon at
Cleves, about twenty-three miles west of

Editor Of the Gazette.
Why should there be home ownless
family in Texas while the broad North
west area remains open to occupancy almost
free! Here in Borden county, there are
several thousand acres of state school land,
besides railroad and vacant land. These
lands are rich and easily titled and
can be owned at an annual expenditure not
exceeding the sum an average renter pays
for the privilege of cropping on some other
persons soil What may be said for
Borden county in regard to cheap, good
lands may with equal justice be said for
the forty odd counties stretching north and
west and composing the great Panhandle of
Texas. Borden IS new county, hay
ing organized only last month The
county site has not yet been located,
but that question will be decided
by election the Sth of next month. At the
same time a special school tax will be voted
on and doubtless voted in for the whole
county There are now about 500 people in
the county There is room for twenty
times that number and homes for them on
easy terms.
The mail service from Col RADIO City to
Lubbock, via Durham and Gail, has been
increased from two to three trips week.
