A few days ago the APPEAL received
a telegram from a noted Tahoe resort
enquiring the price OF some job work.
The price was named and Yesterday
word was received that it was SO high
that the management had decided to
send it to San Francisco. The place
is noted all over the a as charging
b highest price for the least sevice
OF any resort on the lake, but they
want everything cut down to the low
est figures when it comes to buying
anything.
Whenever the APPEAL does any Job

summer resort, it will guage its price
SO as to be somewhere near in keeping
with the rates set by the est b!ishment
desiring the work.

JUDGE JACK EVANS DEAD.

construction.
San Antonio. Texas. August 2S.-The
striking career of Judge Andrew J.. Evans,
known throughout the State as Jack >
Evans was closed this morning by death,
A chronic complaint Of the bowels, from
which he had suffered for thirty five years
exhausted his vitality and finally termi-
mated in complete collapse and heart
failure. He passed away at his residence
on West Poplar street at O'Clock this
morning and was attended by his daughter
and sons law. Mr. and Mrs Rugg OF
Alvin. He leaves one other daughter. Mrs.
Beaumont Of Waco. He had two sons,
but they have been dead some years.
Judge Evans was born In South Caro-
lima sixty-five years ago He came to
Texas in 1852 and engaged in the prac-
tice of law. He was republican and an
extremist in his views During the days of
reconstruction, by sheer force OF his great
natural ability and VIII force, he became
a dominant figure In the republican
ranks and welded tremendous power.
He went to the legislature from Waco
several terms. and also held the Office OF
district Judge
During the second administration Of
Grant he was appointed Federal district
attorney for the Western district of Texas
and held the office continuously for nine
teen years. His prominence In Texas poll
ties and his ST ccess In unTolentingly pros
ecuting law breakers gave him National
reputation.
His remains were shipped TO Waco this
evening for interment.

BRENNAN, Texas, August rs. To-day has

cotton pickers to the city and they all had
money to spend. The country wagons
brought other hundreds and the streets
have been thronged since IL o'clock with
colored people, embracing perhaps the most
varied aggregation that cam be seen in any
part OF the South. Here one can see on
the same block any Saturday coming the

This is the season when they are hap
piest, when the watermelon season was
dovetailed into the cotton picking season
and where there is so many Of them they
seem to be all the happier.
