RAILWAYS.
A Proposed Line From
Glen Rose
1T MAY GO TO cLEDuRNE OR To
GRANBURY.
PROPOSITION MADE
BY KANSAS CITY CAPITALISTS
WHO ASK FOR NOTHING UNTIL
WORK IS DONE.
Committees Have Dccn Appointed
On Donus md Right-of.way

Information comes from Glen Rose,
propositions, have been submitted by
Kansas City capitalists to build line
of railway into that place.
Glen Rose Is a thriving little interior
town, noted for Its magnificent arte-
sian wells. which have been pro-
nounced superior to those found else
where In Texas. The town lies almost
south OF Granpury. which is located on
the Fort Worth and Rio Grande. The
town Is wholly without railway facili-
ties. and is about equally distant from
the Santa Fe on the north and east, the
Texas Central on the south and the
Fort Worth END Rio Grande on the
west
1t is said that n representative of
Kansas City capitalists has appeared
upon the scene and proposed to the
people of Glen Rose to build them Il
railway to a connection with some one
of the lines which compi etc., surround
Somervell county, which particular
one, or to what point 1t Is contemplated
building, 1t has not yet been divliiged.
II Is understood that the promoters
of the enterprise ask for no bonus I'M
til the proposed line shall have bean
completed and In operation.
A meeting of Glen Roses enterprise
ing people has been held, and the pro-
position of the Kansas City people ac-
cepted. A committee has been APP
pointed to secure the necessary light
of-way. and another wil at once axe
the field in an effort to raise the re-
OF ired subsidy. Colonel $. T.. Moss, the
well-known capitalist of Clcburne. was
selected as the trustee of the people,
to hold the funds raised until the pro-
moters OF the scheme shall have car
ried out their proposition and have the
line in operation.
This fact would give some color to
the supposition that the other objective
point under consideration is the thrlv-
ing little city of Cleburne, where a
connection would be made with the
main line and Dallas and Weatherford
branches of the Santa Fe.
1t has been suggested, however, that
In the event the line is built. .he people
of Glen Rose could obtain just as
good connection with Fort Worth, the
great railway center of Texas. by
building to a connection with the Fort
Worth and Rio Grande at Granbury or
some other point on the line. 1t Is
quite probable that terofe the matter
Is definitely determined all points in
terasted and availabls Will be given an
opportunity to present their claims and
Inducements,
The people of Gler Rose are to be
congratulated on their enterprise and
determination in this matter, and II Is
to be hoped that T. Will be pushed
to a successful culm' nation.

Indian chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1882-1902, 1896-04-09

A certain Bonelli, singled out by fate
to display to the world the utter in
significance of human resolve, being
regarded by the whole province in
which he lives as a model for the rest
of mankind, according TO the view of
human virtue taken at Bocoguano, Is
the hero of the tale. This man, on be-
ing told that a heavy reward had been
offered for the capture or obstruction"
of the bandit Cappa, who had become
the scourge of the country, loaded his
gun, went out on the instant and shot
down the beggar of the village, who
was known to pass through a lonely
path at a certain hour of the day. lie
then set fire to the corpse of the beSgar
and went to the authorities to claim
the reward, but even before he had
touched the blood money thus earned
the bandit Cappa himself appeared,
and forthwith the judges, seance
tenante, pronounced judgment against
Bonelli. All this has just taken place
in Corsica. The jury condemned the
traitor Bonelli to the euillotine for
the murder of the poor mendicant,
who had been much beloved through
out the whole country. -Birmingham

of my old copies when | came across a

SAVING ON AGE.
Hint for Boys Who Want to Make Pros


ptsSou> men
Thrift is an admira bic trait. The
way to acquire it is TO cultivate it.
The way to cultivate it is to deny your
self, and faithfully lay by the money
you were tempted 10 spend. of course
you do not lay the money by for the
sake of having it TO spend later on.
People save money for the money, it is
true. This is right because it is provi-
dent. One might fall ill, and if he had
no money saved up he might become a
burden upon those lily able to support
him.
But the best thing about the habit
of saving is the habit itself Having
the habit well fixed in ones character
renders one self-controllable-in other
words. thrifty. Thrift applies TO more
things than ey-saving, for the
man who saves money begins to save
other things. Waste is wrong-a sin.
Did you ever know one to save on
his age-that is, TO lay by as many
dimes or dollars each year as he is
years old? Suppose you are IA. Dur
ing that year you save Sl4, and with ii
buy a certificate of deposit, share of
stock, or something that is complete in
itself-a bond that represents your age
that year Next year you are is, and
you buy SIS bond. Or, if you cannot
save as many dollars as you are years
old, try saving as many half-dollars or
dimes. Keep your money in your own
name, not in the name of some body
else who happens to have bank book
when you do not, and draw it out only
when you are very sure you need it.
Get your age bond first, and your lux
urv afterward
If you begin at IA. dollar for each
year, you will have at 2I seven bonds,
representing SIG. You will also have
some interest money. But you will
have much more. namely, the habit Of
saving-systematic economy, which is
an education of itself, and one which,
if necessary to gain, you could well
afford to throw away the SIG that you
saved.-IIarper's Round Table.
