4 WISH MONE.

Inquiry here demonstrated the wis
dom of the county commissioners in put
ting. the county convicts at work on the
public roads, or better now, at extend
ing the superb system of pixies. The
cost of feeding them in camp is only 81
per month against 50 when in jail doing
nothing, and the work they do is of Il
permanent character and of great value
to the county, and especially to the city.
Working the convicts is not only great
saving to the taxpayers in actual money
but 1t is giving Travis county n system
of regular turnpikes that in very few
years will permeatc the entire county
increasing county values and adding i'm
measurably to the convenience and com
fort of farmers. The action of the
county judge and the commissioners in
This matter Is to be highly commended.

ordinary looking man, wears Il full
beard of black and clerical garb. AT
present he is at the home of Henry
Walker. just beyond the city limits of
Richmond. All day the Walker house
is packed with people, who regard Deane
with profound superstition and believe
him to be the greatest healer of modern
times. A week ago Mr.. Walker lay

walked cheerfully about his room.

upon Commissioner Hughes said to Com
missioner Colyin, aren't you hungry 2"
and Commissioner Colvin. without hest
tation, unanimously voted that he was,
while Commissioner Jordan, with eager
accent, positively affirmed that he de-
tected the fumes of u dinner. The re-
porter and Mr.. Cullen also detected the
fumes of regular well cooked country
dinner. and they surreptitiousy unbut-
toned their vests and prepared them
selves.
The dinner, bountiful and most excel
lently prepared. was heartily enjoyed, af-
ter which the commissioners began their
tour of inspection.
Everything about the place shows evil
dence Of care and good management on
the part of Superintendent Giles.
Two of the cabins occupied by the in
mates of the farm need new galleries,
but as a rule the buildings are in very
good condition. All have been recently
painted outside and whitewashcd inside.
The large cribs and barn are whitcwash-
ed, the latter outside and inside. a shed

dog attacked them and tried to driy,
them away.
Jennie, Olga and Maud the othe
children, slept in the room next to Hans
They too, had struggled and kicked th,
