al EXANDRE,
COLDWATER AND
119.

Yes, one hundred and nineteen
Waco people hold deeds to lots in
Coldwater the county seat of Sherman
county. When l lived in the Pan
handle few thousand dollars would
have paid for every house from WITCH.
ita Falls to Hartley distance of 25O
miles, now millions would not do it.
[ met man few days ago on my
way from ColdwAter that was so deep
ly in mourning because he had not
bought property in county seat in
the Panhandle when it was cheap
that he would only eat mutton that
come from black sheep. Less than
five years ago nothing but village
called Wichita Falls, no railroad now
built through the Panhandle seven
hundred miles ending at Denver,
nothing but grass and cattle roaving
where we find Iowa Park, Harold
Vernon, Chi.licothe, Quanah, Chill
dress. Clarendon, Amarillo, Hartley,
with small towns that now contain in
any one of them more houses than
was built in that entire country when
[ lived there. The Panhandle of
Texas is still in its infancy, every lot
in the county seats have increased in
value more, for amount invested than
any other property in Texas. In
Coldwater the county seat of Sher-
man county you can buy lots now so
cheap that you cannot fail to make
money if you invest at present prices.
The Chicago and Rock Island L. r.
has one branch less than seventy
miles from ColdWater northeast,
its destination Is south from that
branch to go through Hartley and
the capital syndicate lands. Remem-
Der now that [ am selling you this
property as county seat property be.
cause 1t is the county seat situated
in the middle of the county
If Coldwater was railroad town you
could not buy lots within one block of
the court house square for $40, or a
lot for $l5 within 100 feet of $4,000
worth of county improvem snts. You
can dc it now. If you can spare the
money buy at once at my present
prices. We are having 10000 circu-
lars printed to carry the news that
Sherman county has millions of acres
of rich land for sale at 81 an acre, half
of it on forty years time. The first
payment amounts to five cents an
acre, the balance in thirty nine years.
Are you surprised that the people are
hocking to the Panhandle? County
seat lots at my present prices are Ger,
tsinly first-class investment, promis.
ing much larger and quicker return
for amount invested than anything
now offering in the state. Buy now
while YOU can at S., $40, $l5, $40,
$25, $50, $40, $50 lot. If that is
not cheap, what is?

CHARLEY FOWLER DEAD.
He Makes a Dying Declaration and
Passes Away.

Charlie Fowzer, the man who was
shot last Saturday night at the Pacific
Ho,el died at 6 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, in state of unconscious
ness, without a struggle.
Before his death, while perfectly
rational and cognizaut of the near
approach of dissolution he made seve-
raj concise statements of the unfortu.
nate difficulty which resulted in bis
untimely taking off, After having
been Informed by his physician yes.

ment and subsequently in the pres.
ence of Col. A. Symes, Judge l. G Al.
exander, J. j. Gavin, R Il. Bradford
and several others made another which
was repetition of the one formerly
given and which was carefully taken
down in writing.
The deceased was Young man,
being only 80 years of age at the
time Of his death, of vigorous consti.
tuition, weighing about 200 pound,
and jovaI, generous, big hearted
fellow who made friends with every
one he met. In conversation with
his father, Col. G. L. Fowzer, the re-
porter learned much of his character,
and while he was the idolized son, the
parent was not blind 70 his faults
Col Fowler stated that he was gener-
GUS to a fault, frequently giving the
last penny in his purse to the needy,
and never learned the value of Il
dollar--if he made thousand
dollars a day would spend
spend it in day and all with his
friends. On the other hand he would
not submit to an insult and knew no
such thing as fear Of anything nor
anyone. He was warm personal
friend OF J. r. Hoxie, with whom a
few years ago he was extensively en-.
gagged in the stock business and in
which venture he lost by the fall in
the price of cattle $25, 900.
Since then he has been engaged as
conductor on the Nj. X. & T. railway
and resided at Taylor where he is
highly respected and has boast of
friends.
He was a member of the knights
of Pythias and the Order of Railway
Conductors and was tehderly nursed
and cared for by the members Of
those organizations from the time OF
his sad misfortune till his death.
The remains we're shipped to Taylor
last night for interment, accompanied
by his sorrow stricken wife, father and
many friends.
Thus ends the career of brave aud
generous, but pleasure loving
man cut down in the flow r
of manhood-whose demise will
be regretted by all who knew him.

his bill now before Congress, would re-
duce the revenues of the government
about $50, 900 900. To make up this de-
ficiency would require an additional inn
portation or wool manufactures TO the
value of $50, 100000. They would con-
tain from 200,000,000 to 100000 900
pounds of raw wool, which would mar
row the American farmers market by
that amount.
If importations of raw wool were
maintained at last years fgure-and
under free wool they probably would
increase - 100000 pounds would
come in manufactured. Add the
wool contained in our normal importa-
ton of manufactures, $43, 900, 900 worth
last year. and We have 120,0O0,0O0
pounds more, or nearly 100000
pounds all told, which would come in
from abroad to supply the American
demand for wool. Since we consume at
liberal estimate only 600, 100000
pounds of wool annually, there would
be left a demand for not much more
than l00,000,000 pounds of American
wool. Since this country produces over
300, 100000 pounds, it is plain that al
most two-thirds of our entire product
would have to 60 begging for market.
Such an enormous surplus would send
prices so low that destruction of our
flocks would be commenced at once.

father, a mechanic, apprenticed him
at the age Of 10, to a firm Of engi-
ncers. In 1866, being then married,
he emigrated to South America and
found employment as railway engi-
neer in Chilli. Thence he went to
Peru, where the nitrate beds had al
ready begun to attract attention. His
judicious purchases before the boom"
made him the largest owner of nitrate
land in that territory, and his splen-
did business methods soon gave him
the virtual monopoly Of the business
Of gathering and shipping nitrates

Since his obtaining complete and

American properties, Col. North has
lived in England, where his money,
and his sporting friendship with
the Prince of Wales have given him

A Jealous Theological Student Falls into
the Hands of the Police.


The life Of park policeman is so
destitute OF incident that IL was nat
ural that one Of them should start
i'm surprise, one morning recently in
Central Park, when he heard a series
of unearthly sounds come from a Sc
cluded thicket in a ittle-frequented
section OF the great pleasure grounds.
The sounds were OF kind which, if
heard in house at night, would have
at once stamped it as haunted The
voice, or voices, were now raised in
anger, now dropped in love. At one
time the accents told OF an overmas-
tering hatred, at another they seemed
to speak Of victory and joy; sarcasm
was now the keynote, then bitter in
vectlye or gentle pleading. The po-
liceman warily approached the fast
convinced that he had a dangerous
duty TO perform. He felt of his re-
volvcr to make sure that it was all
right, and stole forward until he saw
whence the voice came
In little opening in the forest
stood tall young man, in long,
black frock coat. His black hair was
long and tossed in disorder. The
man had taken off his hat and over
coat and had thrown them on the
ground. He was all alone, but was
declaiming away, gesturing with his
long arms as if addressing a large
multitude. The policeman could at
first make neither head nor tail out
of the spectacle, but when he heard
what the lanky young man was say
ing, he became convinced that he was
an escaped lunatic. This was what
the orator repeated over and over
again:
90, thou, that rollest above, round
as the shield Of my fathers. Whence
are thy beams, o Sun, thine everlast-
ing light?"
The man ran through the whole
gamut Of human passions and moods
with the sentence, varying his eX-
preston each time to correspond with
hate, longing, hope, love, envy,
pathos, or the other feeling which he
wished to represent.
The size Of the speaker, the We
hemence which he put into his words,
and above all, the energy with which
he swung his long arms in emphasiz-
ing his question, gave the policeman
such a wholesome idea of his physi-
cal prowess that he quietly withdrew
for assistance. With two brother DO
licemen he came back to capture the
supposed lunatic. The young man
had put on his hat and Overcoat and
was leaving the secluded spot, when
the policemen came up to him and
made him prisoner.
To their great surprise he sub
mitted calmly, and asked what he
had done. When they told him their
suspicious, he did not know whether
to be angry, mortified or amused. He
soon explained to them that he was a
student at the Union Theological
Seminary, and had been advised by
his instructor in elOcution to go over
the lines of Ossian, out of doors,
putting in them the various emphasis
and intonations. He knew Of no
better place to practice in than Cen
trail Park, so he had gone there.
The righteousness Of the whole
thing finally struck all four OF them,
and they burst out laughing. The
prisoner was released, but hereafter
when he goes to Central Park to prac-
ticc clocution, he will take an audi
ence of one with him.-New York
Tribune.

That eminent Democratic statesman,
ex-Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, has
this to say about President Harrison's
administration:
Since Secretary Of State James G..
Blaine has so positively declined the pre-
ferred honor, see no way for your party
but to renOmInate President Harrison. And
why not? Hasn't he given you most
eminently clean administration Hasn't
he had less political and administrative
scandals than any administration for
years? He is a thoroughly clean man; a
descendant of pure ancestry, and one in
whom no one can find the least faint,
whether personal, political, or official.
