Do Penance for Sins.

The penitent season, which lasts
forty days, and observed mostly
among the Mexicans, began Satur-
day evening. 1t is in this season
that these people do penance for
their sins In many instances the
Mexioans brutally abuse them
selves. Their favorite method is
to gather the soap weed, plat it
into whip about two feet long
and lash their backs until the blood
flows freely. Instances are on
record where some of them carry
their belief so far that they walk
on their knees through a bed of
cacti and then lay down in it.

to identify Mrs Mary Brown" as
the wife of Tom Brown Where
no woman's name follows that of a
man who may be listed in the
directory, the girls will be safe in
betting that he is single. From
the same book it will be an easy
matter to make list of all the
widows in the city. Another

Oil Notes.

William O'Neill this morning
entered the employ of the Colum-
bia Oil & Development company,
which resumed work today.
The directors of the Keystone
Oil company held meeting Sat
urday night and endorsed and
signed up the contract for sinking
well No. 3. The contractors, Pat
terson and Irwin, this morning
began the preparatory work of
putting down the we'll.
Oil men of many years expert
ence claim that the producing
wells of the Florence field are on
the north edge of big basin
of oil. This seems reasonable,
because the best producers in the
field are found in the southern
part.
The Oil Well Supply company
is shipping carload of casing to
the Grand Valley Oil company at
Grand Junction; two cars of tools
to the Boulder house; pipe aud
fittings to the Boulder Basin Oil
company, and a car of supplies

GEORGIA IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

The exhibit of the Empire State of
the South is now in place at the
Charleston Exposition and makes
brave show of the mineral resources
of the old red hills A conspicuous
feature, of course, is the display of
the various marbles which are now be-
ing quarried and shipped from the
state, including serpentine, white, pink
and gray. The space is outlined in
by four beautiful Corinthian columns,
the tallest, Is feet in height, being
white; the other three, somewhat
shorter ones, being pink, black and
white and variegated. These columns
are polished and adorned in the best
manner known to the marble worker
and are fitting exemplafs of what is
fast coming to be considered as the
best marble for CONSTITUTIONAL pur.
poses in the world. From one of these
Georgia quarries were recently ship.
ped four monoliths, each of which
weighed more than 100000 pounds of
pure solid marble without crack or
flaw. The new capitol of Minnesota
is built of Georgia marble, and the
builders the country over are using it
where strength, tenacity and weather
ing qualities are required.
A large glass case in which are as
sembled numerous specimens of
beauxite and the metal aluminium,
which is extracted from it, as well as
utensils of various kinds, which look
like silver, and last like iron, attracts
a great deal of attention. Then there
are granite monuments, case upon
case of mineral specimens, embracing
the whole record of mineralogy, a
magnificent collection of building
stones and a handsome plush lined
case, filled with gems and nuggets of
gold. The most gratifying feature of
the exhibit is the fact that every speci.
men is Georgia product, and with the
exception possibly of the gems and
nuggets, may be duplicated ad infini.
tum. Professor Yates has done his
work well, and the only regret that
any Georgian can feel in the premises
is that there is no agricultural dis.
play commensurate with the resources
of the state.

EDUCATING THE FAMILY.

When we educate man we ed
ucate an individual, but when we
educate a mother we educate a
family. Women necessarily pro-
pagate whatever education they
have, says President Charles D.
McIyer, Of the North Carolina
State Normal and industrial Col
lege. No state or country which
will educate it's mothers need have
any fear about its future litter
acy except from immigration.
An educated man may be the ia
ther of illiterate children, but the
children of educated women are
never illiterate. Outside of the
cities probably three-fourths of
the educated women spend a part
of each day educating their own
children or the children of others.
whereas three-fourths of the edu-
Gated men spend very short time
daily with their own children, to
say nothing of educating them.

FOUR no ONE.

Architect Gilbert has completed
his plans for the Atlanta railway
and passenger station, and Gov
ernor Gambler and the Atlanta
newspapers are in ecstacies over it.
Nevertheless the chances are four
to one that the station will not be
built by the state, under the law
passed for that purpose by the
last legislature, if indeed the state
ever undertakes the task.
The first chance against the sta
tion is, the railroads (the South
ern and Centrsl) will not agree to
the terms proposed Eby the state.
With the l.. & n. in Atlanta which
has large interest in the w. 81 A.
lease, and which by its invading
the Southern's territory has made
the two system S enemies, it is i'm
probable that the Southern would
desire to be in the attitude of a
tenant of the w. & A. and the l..
a. N.
The second chance is that the
supreme court will declare the
station law to be unconstitutional,
because, according to the Consti-
tution's report, the state does not
own the station, since the w. &

TEXAS LETTER.

EDITORS Journal The long
drouth has broken at last and now
we are having nice growing sea-
sons.
Corn. oats and wheat are up and
growing nicely.
The weather here is beautiful at
this time of the year. Our rains
are few and therefore we have very
few frosts in the spring-time, and
we have little fear of our vegeta-
oles and fruits getting killed.
The woods are beginning to look
green, dotted here and there with
wild plums, which are Ill full
bloom.
This is very healthful climate,
very few have chills and fever.
The water is also very healthful.
We have fine schools in this
(Wise) county and a great MANY
churches, which are we'll supplied
with pastors.
From what can learn most of
the people who come to this part
of Texas are we'll satisfied and
prospering. Do not think because
some people come out here and
hardly stay for breakfast, then go
back, that Texas is not a fine
country. When people come out
here to live, they should deter
mine before they start out here
that they will stay one year, at
least, and by that time they will
know whether or not they will
like. Texas has some disadvan-
tages, of course. but where is the
state that has none.
We get the Marietta Journal
each week and it is like getting
a letter from home. We could not
do without it. EUN1CE WRIGHT.
