What the People Are Saying.

What the People Are Saying.
The outrage perpetrated upon
the taxpayers of the county by
the Commissioners court, in the
shape of the million dollar archi-
tectural abortion that stands on
the southeast corner of Main pla-
"a, and known as the Bexar cOun-
ty courthouse, should not be lost
sight of by the voters when they
go to the polls tomorrow. The
big shapeless mass of sandstone
represents a big pile of the tax,
payers money that has been trl,
fled away. 1t has no redeeming
feature about it, either in its in
ternal arrangements nor its eXte-
riOr architecture.
We were told that this big use
less pile of sandstone represented
an architecture monument in
Spanish Renaissance style, then
the architect changed his mind
and called it ROmanesque. What
do the people care about its style
of architecture? What they want
is sufficient accommodations for
the county officials, and it does
not take an architect to see that
in this regard it is a total failure.
The practicability of the struc-
ture should be first considered,
before any lavish expenditures
in an attempt to satisfy an arts
tic taste. With regard to the lat
ter the building is even a piece of
blackguardism, and can't stand a
close criticism, The work in the
interior is of a very common
class for a building of this char
acter.
This folly has cost a great
deal of the taxpayers money, and
they have a right to know how it
was applied. 1t is about time
that they should no longer be at
the mercy of Thad and Joe and
of the Big Six. Open the books.
The building itself shows that
the plans for the new court
house were not adopted on their
merits, but rather by successful
manipulation. The superintend,
ing architect reports only the
plumbing, heating, lamps, etc.
as not coming up to specifica
tons and contract. This repre-
sents only trife of the expendi
ture in the building.

Many Were Disappointed.

The attendance at the flag dedi-
cation of Siemering Lodge, Sons
of Hermann, yesterday, at the
Southwestern park was very large,
but a great many citizens were un-
able to attend on account Of the
lack of adequate street car facili-
ties. The road was too muddy to
take vehicles.
The beer supply gave QUO, and
In taking out two half-barrels Of
beer one of the brewery wagon
teams became stalled and could
not reach the place.

There are rumors fgiDg about thick

has skipped two championship games
with New Haven to play games with the
Newport. r. / club, an amateur or

proved that Irwin and Freedman in
tended TO deliberately ignore the cham

been forfeited to New Haven pending
investigation
When asked IL the "Mets" we're about
to leave the Atlantic, Mr. Long told
reporter of the EVENING JOURNAL that
there was no danger Of such an occur
renee.
''Mr. Freedman, owner of the Nets,
is too well pleased with the league, said
be. II think that the reason for those
two games not being played in New
Haven WAS because the schedule a.
revised did not call for them. Ted
Sullivan keeps all things Of that sort In
his head and he slipped up on It, that's
all. The manager Of the Nets told me
when he was here that he had two games
scheduled with the Newport Club for this

New Haven had been changed. It's all

Wilmington made It three straight to
the good from Newark yesterday Mo
CAffsrty pitched aud made good show
ing for his second gsme only ten hits
being made of him. and they were very
we'll scattered He gave three bases on
balls.
The game WAS an interesting and
exciting exposition OF the national game.
The Wilmington club got In II at the
start and never let down on the streak
OF hard playing it developed.
Wise put up good, strong game and
his running catch OF Torreyson's foul fly

out high fly which Stewart deftly
caught.
Drew came to bat and for the first
time In several games, got back to his
old batting form of the early part Of the
season. After be bad got ball and a
strike be drove the next one over right
field fence thirty feet inside the foul line
for home run.
Maybe the crowd didn't go wild. That
hardly describes the way 1t expressed its
Joy. Everyone took 1t for granted that
that run portended another game for
Wilmington. And so It proved.

at second by Wright to Stewart
Gallagher went out on fly to Stewart
For Newark, Wright got q hit after

way it scored those two was this. Has

the ad 7antages of owning a policy in this
Company about seven years ago by a
friend of mine who was receiving % per
cent dividend annually on a new policy,
when J. was only getting about 10 per cent
on my policy of $4,000 in the Equitable
Life and about II per cent ON my $4,000
policy in the New York Life His con
tract and mine in these Companies being
about the same age. I gave up these poll
Gle. in the Equitable and New York Life
and tnDk out Two policies OF 5 900 each 10
the Mutual Bsnefl Life and the smallest
dividend they have paid me was 20 per
cent /. carry S6000 besides this in other
Companies, but l regard the advantages
offered by the Mutual B.refit superior tn
any contract [ have ever examined, espe
cially the guaranteed fac's value, the 30
per cent lean plan, the reputation for
economical management. the liberal ex
tension features aud the large dividends
they have credited me with for the past

mend 1t to any u desiring reliable life
