the old lady and the children to
Days Spring Lake for days out
ing. l understand there are to be
boating, music, dancing, speaking,
and good time generally"
Bill-"Well, that is q good idea,
and hanged if l don't take my fam
lily. But how are you going?"
John-"We will take the Waco
and Northw estern excursion trains,
leaving Waco at $50, $50 and
1880 a. IN and returning at $3.50,

The WORK OF WILLIAMS.
Scores Of Valuable Dogs Being
Poisoned.

About week ago several very
fine dogs belonging to reputable siti
zens were poisoned. Since then
poisoning dogs has become very
prevalent, and great deal of indig
nation is being felt by parties who
have lost valuable amin ais.
Within the last few days, dogs
belonging to Messrs. j. l. Harrison,
A. II. Knott, Lockstt Horton, I.
B Barton, Wood and others, have
been poisoned. All of them were
fine dogs, valued by their owners at
from s25 to 500 each.
The dog ordinance will soon be
in effect, and why there should be
any motive for such cruel deeds az
killing valuable property, is a
mystery.
The work is being done in the
dark and it is hoped that the parties
guilty of such malicious mischief
will some day be brought to justice.

THE COTTON PALACE.
Some Things The Directory Expects
TO Arrange For.

Mr.. J. Hansel Wood, one Of the
Texas Cotton Palace directory, says
every detail is being looked into as
Che contingency presents itself.
Negotiations are now pending for
Che erection of an electric fountain
in front of the Cotton Palace SINH.
lar TO McMonnie's fountain at the
Worlds Fair, which attracted such
widespread attention and admra.
aion. This will be in honor Of God.
dess Artesia and will be an exhibit
Of the artesian waters.
The building committee has been
instructed to arrange the stage Of
she auditorium so that q spectacular
attraction like America can be pre-.
aented during the Exposition, and
Secretary Plunkett has beeo in
structed to advertise in the eastern
papers for such an attraction.
Two very important congresses
will be held in the Palace and as
1heY are in keeping with its obi act
will increase the attendance and the
best results will be obtained. They
are Farmers congress and a bust.
meas mems immigration congress
The object of the former is to dis
0ass the best crops to cultivate and
She best methods Of farming and to
devise ways and means for obtaining
Che highest prices for their products.
A delegate from each precinct in
Texas will be appointed to attend
this congress. The mayor OF each
city in Texas will be requested to
appoint ten influential citizens to
attend the Business Mems Immi gra-
lion congress, the obi ,ct of which
will be to discuss the best manner
aud means of bringing all kinds of
fa0tories and particularly cotton fac
Gories to Texas and the develop
gnent of Texas in every way.
Secretary Plunkett says that he
mas had several years experience ia
collecting but he never saw people
who paid their obligations any bet.
Ger than they do their Cotton Palace
sub Ioriptions, nor did he ever sac
people as enthusiastic about any en-
terprise as they are about the Cotton
Palace.
The original idea for the audito-
rum in the building was for public
gatherings. For this purpose a
stage twenty two feet deep was pro-
posed. 1t has now been decided to
make the auditorium a theatre and
the plans will be enlarged. They
nave gotten suggestions from theat-
rical men and the stage will either
be forty feet deep with an opening
Of the same size, or still larger. sixty
feet deep and an opening Of fifty
feet This is arranged so that the
.areest spectacular attractions can
be staged. A full set of scenery
sill be put in.

The people Of Sioux Falls are called
upon by the Journal of that city to
stand by their local oil and gasoline
dealer, Coates Il Sells, who for three
years have been fighting the Standard
Oil Co. IN that city. When they began
there three years ago the Standard Oil
Co. was selling at Is cents and whole
sailing to the merchants at Il cents; but
when the new firm started oil dropped
to 8 cents to get rid Of the opposition.
But the people staid with the new firm.
Last Spring the monopoly raised the
price to 10 cents, expecting the new firm
to raise their price to 1219 on account OF
the advance in freight and oil. But
they did not A month ago the monopoly
dropped the price to 8 cents again for
the purpose of getting rid of the opposiE
tion and the people are inclined these
hard times to patronize the monopoly for
the sake of the two cents a gallon, hence
the appeal Of the Journal to stand by
the independent dealers. 1t would seem
as if an appeal would hardly be neces-
sary in this case, for should the new firm
be driven out of business, the monopoly
would Immediately put the price up to
ID cents again.

Levi MCGEE, the Henry George apos-
tie OF single tax theories, in the Black
Hills, has just been elected to the state
senate from Pennington county over j.
w. Fowler, Esq, well remembered in
Madison since the state republican con-
ventlon at this place. According to the
Deadwood Times 1t happened In this
wise: u. W. Fowler, who was candi-
date for state senator from the Penning-
ton county district, was defeated by
eleven votes, while the two candidates
for the lower house were elected by
large pluralities. We recall the cam
paign in Pennington county, IA year ago,
when VIM. Gardner was candidate for
the circuit court and Mr.. Fowler made a
veiy vigorous campaign against the re-
publican candidate, even making it a
personal matter. We are told by Rap
ldites that the people down there have
not forgotten the circumstance and
showed Mr.. Fowler that such tactics
will not be countenanced. The most
singular feature Of the matter is that
Levi McGee, the ~populist candidate fol
state senator, who defeated Fowler, wal
Gardeners opponent u year ago ane

which the cowboys owned. The Indians
were on terms OF friendship with the
white men and frequently went to the
cabin of the latter, to smoke and chat,
the cowboys being acquainted with the
Indian tongue. 1t was after one or
these visits that the Indians arose to de-
part bidding the white men good night
When they reached the door OF the cabin
they turned squarely about and with
their Winchester rifles killed the four
cowboys. Four of the Indians plead
guilty OF manslaughter, but Two Sticks
preferred trial. Each Indian swore in
court that while he was present at the
scene of the murder he had nothing to
do with it; that the other did the killing.
The four who pleaded guilty went to the
penitentiary for five years but Old Two
Sticks will dangle from the end OF a

Business Men Predict Increased Improve
ment In the Near Future.
NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Bradstreets
Y Interest in the elections the past
week natr rally tended to restrict the
volume of trade, particularly in the
South, where it interfered with mer-
camille collections. But within a few
DAYS the influence of more seasonable
weather West and Northwest, together
with the emphasis with which political
questions have apparently been settled,
have increased the confidence of many
merchants and manufacturers in a pros
pect for an increased rate of improve
ment in general trade in the near
future. Chicago and St. Louis manu-
~facturers and business men already re-
port evidences of a tendency on h
part of interior buyers to purchase for
future delivery, and from such iron
centers as Philadelphia, Pittsburg and
Chicago, relatively
Greater Steadlness IL Reported
in quotations for staple brands OF iron
and steel than for some months past.
There is an increased shipment OF
anthracite coal. both by lake and by
rail, within the week and a stimulated
demand for shoes, hats and clothing.
Foreign competition with domestic
plain woollcn dress goods is noticeable,
and American fleece woods feel the
effect of competition with Australian
and quotations continue easier. Print
cloths also are reduced in volume and
prices are steady. Domestic woollen
mills are fairly well employed. Re-
turns ON gross earnings of 107 railroads
for October show an average decrease
of 81 per cent, compared with those of
| October, 1893. While prices for iron
and steel shapes, for Bessemer pig and
steel billets are practically steady,
| there is another net advance this
week in
Prices for Wheat and Lard,
and coffee and sugar have advanced
f~ractionally also. There has been a
further recession in quotations for corn
and for oats, and general commercial
conditions at the South continue to
struggle with another decline of an
eighth of q cent on cotton. Bank
clearings at 70 cities throughout the
United States amount to $3.50, 600, 600,
or 2.5 per cent more than in the previ-
Gus week, 2 per cent more than in the
first week of November, 1898, and only
20 per cent smaller than in the cores
ponding week two years ago. The
favorable indication is found in previ.
Gus weeks aggregates of clearings hav.
ing been over 30 per cent smaller than
in corresponding weeks two years ago.
