Trunk Railroad, that runs between Kaufman

tington for $250,O0O. For years past the
Southern Pacific has been quietly buying up
local lines in Central and Southeastern Texas,
that its main line may have feeders to supply
traffic In all the Southern Pacific has ac-
ouired about 1913 miles of these branches, in
Guiding the Houston ana Texas Central, and
with them and the main road there are some

COL. THOMAS DEAD.
The Aged Father of Our Esteemed
Fellow Townsman, Homer Thomas,
Passes From Earth.

Sad indeed are the words which son-
vey to our minds the intelligence of
death. This time it is that, not of a
townsman, but of the venerable father of
a most respected citizen of Neihart. A
copy of the Belleville, ILL.,, Advocate, re-
ceived this week by Homer s.. Thomas,
tells the story. With expressions of con
dolcnce for Mr.. Thomas we reprint a
portion of the interesting biography of
this veteran as 1t appears in that paper:
"Col. John Thomas is dead. After
life's titful fever he sleeps WELL St.
Clair county's Oldest citizen has been
called to his grave, but his memory lives
in the hearts of the people where he has
made his home during the last ~ years.
His busy and cventful life is ended. On
Saturday evening last, at S:45 o'clock,
surrounded by members of his family, he
breathed his last, at peace with all the
world, and his dying hours brought no
pain. He passed quietly away as a sleep
ing child. At the advanced age of "a
years, II months and 4 days he had no
fear to meet what all the dead have met,
and with the closing of the old year, an
| other mound has been rounded up for
eternity, marking the place of the pion-
eer who left the world where his name
will be held in reverence and respect by
a legion of friends and acquaintance"
The lengthy article by the editor OF
the Advocate outlines an interesting BIZ
ography. The deceased distinguished
himself in the famous Black Hawk wal
of 1882. He was one of the founders OF
Belleville. His generosity was ascribed
to him as a fault and in his giving his
rule was "let not the left hand know
what the right hand doeth." Born when
the century was but 1. days old he has
almost spanned the time to its close. He
served successfully as legislator in the
state of Illinois and was at the bottom
of some of her most wholesome legisla
ton. For a period of 40 years, off and
on, he occupied Il seat in that honorable
body. He was busy up till the date o.
his sickness, the 18th ult., attending tt
his private affairs. His mind was brigh'
and active, and everybody in the com
munity sought his wise counsel. HI
was stricken with paralysis which pos
sesscd his body but a few days whel
death ensued.
No man in the county was bette
known or more revered than this aget
gentleman, and his life has been insep
arably entwined with the history of bot
county and state. He leaves three sol
and three daughters to mourn his loss
Truly a wonderful man has died.

Harley Creek,

The HERALD has always taken great
stock in the mineral formation of Harley
creek. Here are the finest veins found
In any country. They are filed with
decomposed quartz, heavily stained with
copper oxide. y party of enterprising
Frenchmen have done considerable work
upon a few claims in that locality and
1t Is not yet to say that their labors have
been in vain. The Imperial has been
developed more than the rest. 1t is
owned by Lous Bergcron, John Payette,
p. ID. Duhaime and Regis Provost. They
have driven a tunnel over 400 feet upon
the lead. This lead was found upon
cross cutting, to he well defined and
frcm fifty to eighty feet in width. 1t is
full of copper stains but as yet they
had found no considerable assays. They
sunk Il Wine in the tunnel and at a
depth of twenty-five feet encountered 4
change of formation. and took out ore
which assayed ten per cent in copper,
The ledge contains mnch copper pyrites
and the prospectors say they have found
it to contain particles of native copper
The similarity of this field to the
Lump district is striking. There are
magnificent leads throughout the coun
try. But the surface assays have never
shown them to be valuable. There is
not the slightest doubt that II little
depth will develop Harley creek into ;
most valuable district.
I. B. Gregg, Joe Brulotte. NJ. F. Bo
land and Louis Bergeron own a grouI
of five claims in that vicinity which
bear the same indications of copper.

Lump Gulch.

Richard Brennan got back Monday
from Lump gulch where quite a mining
excitement is going on. Lump gulch is
twelve miles west of Helena, on the G.
N. and N. p. railroads. The ore of this
camp is IA high grade galcna bearing sill
yer, but little gold. There are about
200 miners working for wages and prob
ably 800 prospecting. The Butte scale
of wages prevails.
Lump gulch is peculiar in respect to
its surface appearances. The country
is full of tissure veins, in a granite form
alton. The ledge matter does not show
assays. No ore is found near the sur
face. But Il depth of fifty to seventy
five feet has invariably disclosed good
bodies of ore.

A Market Place.

THE HERALD heartily reiteratcs the
arguments of its contemporary favoring
the establishment of a market place at
some suitable point in the town of Nei
hart. A law that would compel a ranch
er to pay a license for the privilege of
selling the products of his ranch in a
neighboring market would be odious in
the extreme. We would favor no meas
ure that would tend otherwise than to
stimulate home production.
But there are merchants IN Neihart
paying licenses to city and state, meet
ing clerk hire, rent and incidental ex-
penses, supporting local enterprises and
building up the town.
For illustration: A rancher slaughters
a steer. Three quarters of it he is forced
to sell, because he cannot consume it.
He brings it to town, peddlcs it from
door to door, puts the money in his cot
tonade pants until such time as he has
occasion to send to Montgomery Ward
& Co. for whatever commodities he NAV
need.
The neighboring dairyman, hay and
grain vender, huckster, all come under
the same category. They are enabled to
undersell the local dealer because they
hire nobody, and pay neither rent nor
license.
A market place should be opened fol
the use of which a small fee should be
collected. In addition to this II fine
should be imposed for peddling. The
market place would become a sourc OF
some revenue, and afford the remedy fol
a certain injustice, the existence Of
which, where facts are investigated, can.
not but be recognized.

/, An Oregon editor answered Il farmers
query, "Do hogs pay" by a reference to
his list of delinquent subscribers.
A hundred years ago the society ladies
of Connecticut would have paid dearly
for appearing at a ball arrayed in the
evening dress of this period, for one of
the blue laws of that state passed in 1899
reads ''If any white female of ten years
or upwards shall appear in any public
street, land, highway, church, courtroom,
tavern, ball room, theater or amy other
place of public resort with naked Shout
ders or low necked dress, being able to
purchase necessary clothing, she shall
forfeit and pay a fine of not less than
one dollar nor more than two hundred
dollars"

For the knowledge gained at college or the

She does not show = passion Otis the fin de

For the mystic, cabalistic fads and isms

She does not waste the hours talking woman's

Does not keep her out of sleep or make her

Many of our readers have been ia
vored by this Office during Il season of
great depression by receiving the paper
regularly until their bills in the aggre-
gate amount to considerable. By thus
carrying these dclinquents we have had
to pay interest, and keep up the crcdi
of the shop by meeting all bills for
wages, stock, inks, type, etc, rs they
came due. BY the grace of II few we
have thus far been able to meet all such
bills. The individual sums due from
delinquent subscribers are not large, but
theis numhrc is appalling in the extreme,
Anyone knowing himself to be in this

hand. Or if more convenient send it by
postoffice or express money orher, check
or bank draft. A ready response to thi:
