sixteen miles to the northwest Of here,
stands a lone cottonwood tree. which, on a
prominent point and In treeless coun-
try, can be seen in the clear atmosphere
that surrounds Il for miles and miles. on
these pains, in the '70s, was the home and.
when in trouble, the rendezvous of the no
torious Sam Bass gang. which for years
terrorized this entire country, killing and
robblng right and left until its breaking
up In June 1879, by the killing near Round
Rock, Tex, of it's most daring spirit and
leader, Sam Bass.
This lone tree was used by the robbers as
a signaling point and near IL was the deep
forest of Hickory creek bottom, wherein
were held the secret councils and con-
clavea of the robber band 1t was said
too that much of their ill-gotten gains
were buried or hidden near here and many
times have treasure-seekers dug and ex-
plored the country roundabout in search
thereof, only, however to return from
their search disappointed. But that there
was truth In the old story, incidents in
the past few days have proved beyond all
peradVenture.
Several days ago a well-dressed stranger.

with the surrounding country. got off the
train at Krum, a SINAI, station on the Santa
Fe, and after prospecting during the day
at last purchased small scantling, which
he very carefully measured marking II Off
into spacse of foot each. A shutdown he
disappeared In the direction of McClary's
place on which the lone tree stands.
Nothing more was seen of him until next
morning, when he returned, carrying with
him a sache which seemed from the way
he bore It, heavily laden.
He left on the first train, but even then
nothing was thought about his rather pc
culiar actions. until day or two later the
owner OF the land on which the old cotton
wood stands came In and reported that he
had discovered about 100 feet southeast
Of the tree hole In the ground about four
feet in diameter and five feet deep, in the
bottom of which were some pieces of de-
cayed wood and a cavity. from which a
box several inches square had evidently
been removed and near there he found the
selfsame scantling which the stranger had
bought at Krum a few days before and
which he had so carefully marked off into
foot spaces. IL Is generally supposed that
he got the long-hidden treasure, in search
OF which so many hours have been lost,
and so many woud-be seekers have failed.

One English woman who wore a big
hat of purple straw. all trimmed with pur

of purple tulle. 1t was a double veil drap-

crossed and carried under her chin and

The most unique veil arrangement was

VEIL that was draped into a scallop that
came just to the tip of this smart wo-

take in both eyes, and was tied at the
back of her hat in butterfly bow.
Another strikingly pretty gown was worn
by Mrs Gardner. 1t was made of bluette
taffeta and deep-cream pierced batiste.
The skirt was a full godet close-ftting
over the hips, with all of the fullness car

with four hoops of broad cream batiste
