A CHRISTMAS TIP.

The thousands of Texans who came
from the South Atlantic states find
much pleasure in reverting to the hap
py days of long ago when they were
children, and often they awake at
night to recall those scenes of yore,
which gave to life a charm, and which
now come in later years as visions Of
joy. There is a tender spot in ev-
cry heart for the old home, and the
memories which cluster about the
dear old spot are solaces in the weary
weary struggle we make day by day
to build in our new Eldorado a home
to which our children in future time
will turn, as we turn now to the old
place where our loved ones in the ev-
ening of life await the final summons.
The Texas & Pacific railway COM
pany again offers you the opportunity
to go back to the old home. Round
trip excursion tickets will be on sale
from all points on the system on Dec.
Dist and 22nd, 1896, to points in the

Plan Proposed in Parliament by a Dub
lin Member.

London, Feb. 26.-J. J. Clancy, Par
nellite member Of the north division of
Dublin county, moved the second read
ing of the evicted tenants bill in the
house of commons today. This measure
is of a voluntary nature, not compul-
sorry, and provides for a board of concil-
iation, consisting Of three members, be
appointed by parliament and empower
ed to confirm existing agreements or re-
instate tenants by purchase or as ten
ants under judicial rent. The number
of evicted persons is few and the mat
ter, it is claimed, should be soon set
ted j. A. Rentoul, Q. c., conservative
member for East Downs, moved the re-
lection of the motion on the grounds
that the measure involved the principle
that tenants evicted for non-payment
of rent would receive large grants of
money.
