BIG CROPS IN TEXAS.
A CATHOLIC,

Wheat and Oats are Yielding Beyond all
Precedent Harvest is Now in Progress
and Labor is In Demand at One
Dollar a Day.
Dallas, May 26.-Nothing but glo-
rious reports received concerning the
crops of every portion of Texas. 1t is
Is claimed that q great many fields in
this and other counties will make one
hundred bushels of oats to the acre,
forty and fifty bushels Of wheat, and
fifty to sixty bushels Of corn. In these
divisions of Western and Northwest
ern Texas, outside the. agricultural
belt and mostly devoted to grazing,
there are the finest prospects in thirty
years. Not q greatdeal was planted in
grain, but what was is showing an as
tonishing yield.
The harvesting of wheat and oats has
commenced and farm hands are in
brisk demand at 81 per day. The task
Of harvesting the crop is Herculean,
and barn and crib room far less than
the demand.
These grand crop prospects have re.
newed hope and confidence throughout
Texas. Men in business believe the
turning point has been reached after
six years Of adversely, depression and
misfortune.

For the Herald and Tribune.
From "A Catholic"

The writer of an article which ap.
peared in the Herald and Tribune of
May 26, signed A Catholic, does not
desire a newspaper controversy, nor
will she have 1t.
The article was gotten up for the
purpose of denying an oft repeated
charge that Catholics worship the
Pope, and with feelings of commisera.
ton and pity for those who SANDER us,
rather than malice. God forbid that /
should ever entertain any but the kind
est feelings for those who ignorantly
misrepresent the church of God. That
this has been done, not only by school
boys, but from the pulpit, by persons
supposed to be informed is too true to
admit of doubt. AS said before, there
is nothing too absurd to be believed.
Catholics are often accused of worship.
ing the Virgin, blessed Virgin pray
ing to statues, pictures, beads, etc. In
this century of progress and enlighten-
ment this is almost inexcusable.
Those who were present and heard
the GRAFTON alluded to in my last are
witnesses as to what was said. There
were no quotation mai s THAT being
s%crupulously ~avoided) in the sentence
to which reference was made, simply
the substance as all will see who ex-
anime 1t. I expect to raise my feeble
voice in defense of my faith when as.
sailed in my presence. I have ''back-
bone enough" for that, as all will find
who acous me of worshiping any but
the loving God.
There ire many persons we'll in
formed on other subjects who possess
no knowledge of the beliefs and teach
ings of the Catholic church, and for
those who accuse US falsely we humbly
pray, Father, forgive them, they
know not what they do"

LETTER FROM TEXAS.
ALMEDA, TEXAS, May %, 1897.

ALMEDA, TEXAS, May 80, 1897.
! 1t has been my pleasure to visit the
above named town today and it is sure
a thing of beauty. They first com.
menced settling there six years ago;
there are twenty odd nice dwellings, a
fine hotel, good school house, forty
odd scholastic population, over 700
acres in fruit trees, pears, peaches,
apricots, figs, mulberries, plums, and
a great many other semi tropical fruits,
strawberries, grapes, &c. The farms
are small and we'll cultivated most of
them inside OF a section of land with a
fence around the whole Of it and the
farms separated by roads with borders
Of California privette (boxwood) hedge
with white English and Russian null
berries and umbrella China trees
planted alternately twelve or fifteen
feet apart, which gives it a beautiful
appearance. 1t Is the prettiest settle.
ment l have ever seen in Texas or any
where else for that matter. l was mis-.
taken in my last about Strawberries
being all gone. l picked and ate a
quart today and the vines are full of
blooms and berries of all sizes and I
was told there would be plenty until
July, also that he had a few every
month in the year. I was there the
first week in January and there was a
few ripe then; it is nothing uncommon
to have strawberries here for Christ.
mas. The watermelon vines almost
cover the ground now, there will be
plenty of them ripe next month.
l will say to Brother Dhale that l
will probably some time visit the dear
old hills Of East Tennessee and drink
Of its pure waters, such as l have never
drank in Texas, but it will perhaps be
only a visit. You can beat us for good,
cool water, apples, timber and q few
other things, but for soil and climate
Texas ia far ahead.
Well, but you may say a man can't
live on soil and climate; the soil will
make the vegetables and the climate
makes 1t pleasant to work even when
the thermometer is 10 in the shade.
We also have some lovely women.
Wherever man goes she follows. We
read in ye olden times how Ruth fol-
lowed Boaz around, and the women
have been following the boys around
eyer since. And when Adam was
placed In the garden of Eden, Eve came
along and got into his apple patch and
Adam was kicked out of the garden
and has had to root hog or die ever
since. So Brother D. you see it is not
always best for man for pIetty women
to predominant. Yours truly,
JACK RABBIT.

Teachers and Directors Meeting.

Superintendent s. w. Murray called
a meeting of the teachers and directors
Of Washington County to meet In the
Court House In Jonesboro, on Saturday
May 20. 1897.
The attendance was rather small, but
those who did attend seemed to take a
deep interest,
Superintendent Murray called the
house to order promptly at 10 O'Clock
A. NJ, and stated tic object of the
meeting. On motion of Prof. Hilbert,
superintendent Murray was selected
fchairman.
The subject OF time and place of
holding the County Normal was then
considered. The teachers present Sc
lected the Court House In Jonesboro as
the place and the 10th day of July as
the time for the normal to begin.
superintendent Murray then read
and explained the amendments to the
school law calling particular attention
of directors to their duties In requiring
teachers to make out their abstracts
correctly, in issuing orders for the
payment of school supplies, etc. As
the Superintendent is required to make
a full report of everything purchased
by directors it is necessary to state
specifically the purpose for which the
order is issued; that all orders, except
those for the payment of teachers
salaries, has to be countersigned by the
Superintendent.
The subject of What Do You Con-
slider Essential Qualifications In EN-
ploying a Teacher" was then discussed
by teachers and directors. "How to
Make Our Work as Directors and
Teachers More Efficient :" All seemed
to take a very deep interest In this sub.
ject and it was discussed by teachers
and directors.
The meeting then adjourned until
/ O'Clock Pm.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
As several directors who were not
present in the forenoon were there,
Superintendent Murray gave a short
talk on the duties Of directors, urging
them to strictly comply With the school
law.
Profs. Armentrout and Mcclure gave
some good eason why the County
Normal should be held at Washington
College. Superintendent Murray then
stated that he would make inquiry of
all the teachers concerning the place
of holding the normal and be guided
by the will of the majority.
Prof. James 1risham read the amend.
ments to the school law. Superintend.
ent Murray said there were too many
secondary schools, that one secondary
school in a distr let Is sufficient; that
too many secondary schools often
causes the employing of incompetent
ASSISTANTS. Prof. Hilbert, j. M. CARRIER
and others made talks on the same sub.
ject, after which the meeting adjourn
