The Ideal Factory.

Tulane Hall was we'll filled last
night with an audience seriously
inclined to listen to the lecture and
view the picture presented by
Arnold Shanklin delineating "A
New Era in Factory Life,' being
descriptive of the famous factory
at Dayton, which has attracted
worldwide interest by the humane
principles upon which it is run and
the cooperation of work and senti-
ment between employer and en-
.ploye.
In explaining the principles upon
which the new factory plan rested
Mr.. Shanklin said a mutually of
concern had sprung up between the
employers and it simply amounted
to one big family, with $500 souls
gathered around one hearthstone.
The employees felt as much concern
in the business as the men who
really owned the properties. This
was due to the fact that life had
been made interesting to them in the
hours of their toiling. There was
no heavy dragging, no drudgeries.
The burdens had been lightened all
along the line. Business had be-
come matter of pleasure. Social
features had been introduced and
routine had become so thoroughly
threaded with functions Of a pleas
ant character that work had become
no harder than some lighter pastime.
A large number of workingmen
and women were in the audience
and evidenced their appreciation by
frequent applause.

ton and French, that 95 poles be
accepted as the correct number and

Mr.. j. A. French, stated that he
would not have entered his protest
to the construction Of this water
works plant at the last meeting il
he had known that Messrs. M. T.
Lewman & Co., had offered to ten
der to the Mayor $500 to erect a
bulk head at the bayou.

gineer, presented to the council his

BEAUMONT OIL.

Beaumont, April 9.-The largest
deal that has yet been made in the
Beaumont OIL field was consnmateG
to-day, when r. l.. Henry represent
ing an Eastern syndicate, purchased
the Beatty we'll from the Texas
Western Oil Company for 81 $50,
900.
This sum was paid for the bare
we'll and property, and did not in
clude a gallon of tankage or a foot of
pipe line. The company's holding
in the Beaumont field and about
10000 acres of oil privileges in
other districts went with the deal.
The Texas Western retains the
corporate name and property hold
ings in this field, Corsicana and
and Sour Lake. The syndicate
who purchased the we'll will put in
pipe lines and tankage to market
the oil. The Beatty we'll was struck
on the Goth Of March, and con-
sidered one of the finest wells in
the field. The flow is estimated at
10000 barrels a day of fuel oil.
The purchase of the we'll by solid
financial firm at the above named
price is giving stable value to
stocks in companies that have oil,
and is stimulating operators who
are just beginning.

as mercury will surely destroy the sense OF
smell and completely derange the whole
system when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be
used except on prescriptions from reput-
able physicians, as the damage they will
do is ten fold to the good you can possibly
receive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, o., contains no mercury, and is
taken internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system.

ANOTHER FINE SERMON.

Rev. M. B. Adams, pastor of
the First Baptist Church, deliv-
cred the fifth in the series of SER
mons he is preaching on 1.-The
Perils of the City," on Sunday
night. Notwithstanding the thun-
derstorm and drenching rain,
there was a fine crowd out, COM
posed principally of young men
and women.
The man of God laid down, as
the basic principle of what he had
to say, that the law of God and
man required an equivalent for
every thing that man has. In
other words, that there must be
some service rendered for every
dollar gained, whether by the day
laborer or the Millionaire, in order
to make that gain honest and the
gamer an honest man. He de-
nounced, in the strongest language,
any scheme which protested to
return three dollars for every one
invested as nothing more nor less
than gambling, and that, in the
outcome, the last person in would
be caught for all they invested.
All games of chance he denomi-
mated gambling, and gambling
was just simply and plainly steal
ing, the one way or the other.
He stated that the citizens of
Frankfort, who were aware of the
gambling and vice that were so
prevalent, and who raised no
voice or hand to suppress and
punish, were particeps criminis
with the criminal.
He urged all business men, and,
in fact, every man, to give full
thirty-six inches for a yard; full
weight in merchandise; an honest
hours work for that hours pay;
honest and truthful legal advice;
