A FatherlY Chat.

A father talking to his careless
daughter, said 81 want to speak
to you of your mother It may be
that you have noticed a careworn
look upon her face, OF course it
has not been brought there by any
act of yours, still it is your duty to
chase it away, want You TO get
up tomorrow morning and get
breakfast. When your mother
comes and begins so express her
surprise, go right up toher and kiss
her on the mouth. You can't i'm
agine how it will brighten mp her
dear face, Besides, you owe her a
kiss or two; away back when you
we're a little girl, she kissed you
when no one else was tempted by
your fever-tainted breath and
swollen face. You were not so at
tractive then as you are now.
Through years Of childish sunshine
and shadows she was always ready
to cure, by the magic of a mothers
kiss, the little, dirty, chubby hands
whenever they we're Injured in
those first sklrmishes with the
rough old world. ~ Ex.

T. S. Road Mace Yesterday,

The train pulled out promptly at
$3.50 a. m, with Engineer Oliver
at the throttle aud Conductor
Burke in charge.
The road was represented, in its
official capacity, by the following
officers, aboard: w A Williams,
general manager; o H Pennock,

burg,
There we're several passengers
and sight seekers on the train, and
we recognized Dick Steele and O H
Pennock, Jr,, among them, The
road is smoothe and the riding was
easy, and the train soon covered
the twenty miles between this city
and the present terminus-Bloom-
burg.
On arriving at this new embryo
city, we found some fifteen men
there, waiting to see the train
come in They we're all well dressed
and showed that they belonged to
the better class of farmers. A new
depot was in course Of construction
and so near completed that we
could tell it would be a good roomy
one and constructed after modern
depots at other places, 1t will cost
at least 81 200, Near the depot is
erected a tank OF sufficient size to
/ furnish the road with plenty Of wa
ter and have il to spare and pipe

We noticed many tons Of steel
piled on the ground, to be used in
extending the line south, and learn

belonging to W. j, Casters aud the

The town site is on high rolling
hill, which is the watershed be-
tween Black Cypress creek and Sui
phur river The site is said to be
100 feet higher than Texarkana and
200 feet higher than Shreveport,
The water is easily reached by
digging and is said to be good and
wholesome,
Judge Yates, eX.County Judge Of
our county, was there and told US
that the distance to Bright Star
was 4 miles; to Queen City, 5 miles,
and to Atlanta, 7, and to State line
/ ! mile, He sad the trade to Bloom
burg would be from Bright Star
and the Sulphur river country
We were much impressed with
the farms we passed through, rs
the crops and soil looked better and
richer than we expected to see,
The bridge across Sulphur and
the entire trestling across the Sui

COUN TING THE LOSS.
ArdmOre Fire Destroyed Nearly
a Million Dollars Worth.
Twenty-six Livery Horses Were
Burned to Death.
NEARLY WIPED OUT.
More Than Eighty Business
Houses We're Burned.

ARDMoRE, I. T., April 2O.-Almost the
entire business portion of this city was
wiped out by flames yesterday morn
ing. Thursday Ardmore could boast
of being the largest city in the Indian
territory with more than $50 business
houses, among which were many two
and three-story brick buildings. To-
day they are a smouldering mass of
ruins, from the stately bricks to the
cheap board houses. More than eighty
business houses in the heart of the city
on Main and South Caddo streets were
wiped out by the flames 1t is difficult
to get correct estimate of the losses,
which are variously estimated at from
$500, 600 to $500, 600, but the latter fig
ures are probably nearer correct.
When the alarm was given at 1
o'clock yesterday morning it was dis
covered that the large livery barn of
Harper s. Cecil was in flames, which
spread SO rapidly by the frame build
ings on either side that all efforts to-
ward saving them were useless. All
business houses on CaddO street were
soon in ashes and the flames spread to
Main street. Two large brick national
bank buildings and three other bust
ness houses on Main street east of
Caddo and the post Office is the only
business portion of the city saved. The
city has no fire company or water
works, but the whole male population
turned out and fought the fire as long
as there was hope of saving anything.
The large federal court building and
Jail were destroyed Eighty prisoners
confined in the latter were removed to
the Baptist church beyond the danger
line and placed under heavy guard.
Twenty-six livery horses were roast
ed alive in Harper & Cecil's stables,
and a man named Neu, stranger, who
was permitted to sleep in the barn, was
so badly burned that he cannot recover.
The cause of the fire is not known,
there being various rumors as to it's
origin, but it is undou btedly incendiary.
No accurate estimate can be given
of the many small esta blishments de-
stroyed, nearly all of which were an
entire loss to the owners. Work will
commence at once on new buildings in
the burnt district, and much more sub
stantial stone and brick buildings will
soon take the place of those destroyed
by fire.

STILL ANOTHER ONE.
Interesting Event in the Presidents

REeatd0nER
Family Expected Soon.
WASHINGTON, April 2O-The cossips
in governmental and social circles are
busy with very sweet morsel of news.
1t IS nothing less than an expected and
national interesting event to occur in
President Cleveland's household.
The cabinet ladies who have been on
terms of great intimacy at the White
House have known for some time that
the stork had selected the chimney of
that historic mansion for his nesting
place. They have been exchanging con-
fdences and have offered congratulations
to Mrs. Cleveland As confrmatory of
the runners which have from time to time
leaked out of those high official circles,
the family physician, DIR. Bryant has
made frequent visits to this city. He was
reported to have been at WoodleY today,
and it is known that he was there within
the past week. His frequent trips here
from New York lead to the belief that
the event SO much talked of at afternoon
teas and where ladies do congregate, is
very close at hand.

TACOMA, April 2O-Ever since his
death there have been rumors that the
late Paul Schulz was short in his &C.
counts as general western land agent of
the Northern Pacific road. The friends of
the dead man have been inclined to dis
credit such reports, though an investi-
cation of his accounts has been in pro-
gress for three days
1t is known there have been indica-
tions of a shortage in the land office &C
counts and some of Mr. Schulz's close
friends have hesitatinely admitted that
his affairs are in a much more compli-
Gated state than was supposed at the time
of his death.
Land Commissioner Phipps has two
experts. whom he brought from ST Paul
with him, going over the books. 1t is
significant that Mr. Phipps has remained
here personally supervising the investi-
cation while his brother officers have
gone on a trip to Grays Harbor- and
Portland.
1t was reported last evening that up to
6 p. N. a discrepancy amounting to $780,
900 had been found in checking up the
actual land sales with the land contracts
and cash receipta
