TO MAKE REPAIRS.
The Court House to be Reprinted and
Repaired Early in the Fall.
Other improvements.

As mentioned last week in con-
nection with the proceedings of
the commissioners court, Col. A.
S. CAN'T was instructed to pre-
pare plans and arrange for the
improvement of the court house
at this place. Commissioner Lee
was also empowered to have the
court house yard improved, re-
planting the shrubbery that had
died and putting out additional
trees where needed.
Mr.. CAN'T informs q Press rep
resentative that the contemplated
improvements will include some
needed repairs to the building and
the repainting of the exterior,
from basement to top of dome,
work to begin early in the fall.

Commissioner Lee, of Precinct
No. 2, was delegated to look after
the court yard, on motion of Mr..
CAN'T, the duty really devolving
upon the latter gentlemen, being
located in his precinct. But Col.
CAN'T is liberal in his dealings
and by nature very generous and
was more than willing to share
the "honors" in this instance.
Mr.. Lee will, on this occasion,
as heretofore, perform n most
satisfactory service to the county
and we may expect the grounds to
compare favorably with the hand

Another Runaway.

Runaways are becoming quite
frequent of late and to the list
was added last Wednes-
day. A team belonging to d. E.
Cocreham, the transfer man,
started on a run from the wagon
yard, dashing up Twohig avenue
and running the float, to which
they were hitched, against the
platform on the south side of the
building formerly occupied by
Jackson e. Neeley Bros. The
crash moved one end of the plat
form about eighteen inches, and
the front axle was broken close to
the spindle on left side. The
team then turned the corner and
started up Chadbourne street, but
was stopped about midway the
block.

LETTERS OF TRAVEL.
Interesting Communication Continu-
Ing Description Of Cloudcroft,
by 6. j. Finger.

In the dim, cool woods, on q
hazy morning, when we had
nil comfortably breakfasted, and
we're lazily enjoying the balsamic
perfume which drifted on the still
air, we were shocked by hearing
of the fearful tragedy in San An
cello, Fully two thirds of the
visitors knew Mrs. Landon, and
many had received kindnesses at
her hands. That day oil pleasure
iaunts were set aside, and voices
were stilled to a whisper. The
brotherhood of grief joined
us on the mountain top with the
mourners in the city of our adop-
ton. The soft pressure of the
mountain soil under foot, the
mysterious whispers of the boughs
overhead, and the arched green
glory of the lofty trees, seemed
cathedral like. For that day the
merry faces that we're won't to
peep from behind tree trunks
were absent, and the joyful spirits
that, reveling in the security of
comradeship, beat the bosky re-
cesses of the forests for game,
wandered above. The thought of
eternity came with n rush into
the butterfly life. Had death
stricken one of our number, the
grief could not have been more
poignant. Amongst the flowers
gatherd with careless hands we
had seen the shadow of the grave.

My vacation is drawing to a
close, for the inevitable separa-
tion between n fool and his money
is rapidly approaching. To be
sure we have been havinga splend-
i'd time in parting, for in know
ing how to do that cometh the
wisdom of the fool, and the wise
man maketh not a fool of him
self twice in the same way.
Of course, there is no account
ing for tastes. Some may prefer
the parting to come via fusel oil
and lager beer, Others by way of
railroad investments or automo-
bile repairs. Some like to get
into newspaper controversy and
lawsuits, while others, who do not
mind the loss of leg or an eye,
60 soldering in the Philippines
or find "looping the loops ex-
hilarating. 1t is all the same
in the end. But for me the Joy
of finding comfort under two
thick blankets at seven in the
morning, and seeing the sunshine
through the white canvass that
stretches between you and the
sky, is supreme. There is even &
great joy in peering, rs you lie
through the Tapping opening Of
the tent, and resting your eyes or

There is no doubt about it that
Cloudcroft has one of the finest
climates in the world. Amuse-
ments in plenty may be found.
In Zenith Park there are tennis
courts and golf links, in the casino
bowling alleys, billiard, pool,
ping-pong and bagatelle, and in
the pavilion a music room, stage,
dance hall and band on the Phil
ippi order. And there are no
restrictions. | should, however,
advise no one to take along n box

lar, tooth brush and clean
handkerchief. One should not go
in summer clothes. The girl in
the fish net bodice will come near
sympathizing with Nansen.
Plain warm clothes and stout
walking shoes are most desirable,
for in the early morning and late
evening, the roaring, blazing pine
log is very welcome. The young
men with patent leather shoes
and monogrammed hose, negligee
white shirt and white pants will
feel foolish, as he is. Summary

ducive to comfort.

Cloudcroft will never become a
rough and tumble resort of the
Coney Island order. Many
wealthy people resting from the
scramble for scads are contem-
plating the establishment of per-
manent summer homes here, and
a few fine residenc es have already
been erected. Mr.. Carl Rubin
told me that lots sell from 500
upward to $500. There are now
and again bargains to be made.
Mr.. Dustin for instance, purchas-
ed corner lot on the main ave-
nue. for $3.50. One may also rent
cottage very reasonably. | rented
n floored and boarded tent with
stove and bedroom fittings, and
had first class accommodation at
meals in the Lodge for $1,000 per
week. By the day, one pays
$3.50 or $500. Living in the
Lodge altogether will cost Sl5.
One could, if very near financial
bedrock, live over on North
Cloudcroft cheaper still, but that
is nigh unto the jag-factory and
the church. For 800, one could
leave Angelo via Ballinger and
Abilene, go to Cloudcroft, stay a
month, and return. This will
leave a comfortable margin, if
your taste does not run to Indian
curios, and you leave veneer be-
hind.
1t would be an excellent plan
to form exploring parties, So

unknown to the average visitor,

FEW GOT HIS AUTOGRAPH.
Prince Henry Disappointed Many Of
the Ftends Who Tried to Get
His Signature.

Prince Henry while here was nat
urally asked often for his autograph,
but it is estimated that not more than
100 persons succeeded in getting it.
Most of the requests came by mail.
The prince, who had met the auto
graph fends on the other side, decided
to give his autograph only to certain
individuals. These were the president
of the society or club Of which he was
the guest and one or two of those
nearest him at table. To this rule he
persistently adhered, states the New
York Sun.
AT all the dinners at which the prince
was guest in this city, and elsewhere
requests for his autograph were sent
to him in large numbers, most of them
in notes addressed to him through the
presiding officer. Not a few of these
requests were made personally.
The prince always took pains to in
form those who presided at the din
ner of the rule he had made, and left it
to him to explain it to the applicants.
In accordance with the rule he made
Tor himself he always wrote his auto
graph on the menu card of the presid-
ing officer and Of those nearest him at
table, sometimes extending it SO that
perhaps five or six persons had the
favor shown to them at the head
table. ~,
Had he complied with all the re-
quests made of him, it was said by a
person who was with him and knew
about his mail, he would not have had
time to do anything else throughout
his visit but write his signature

RED DRAGON RE1NsrArED.

Welshmen Will BE Likely to
Feel Elated,

There will be rejoicing in Wales
and among loyal Welshmen the

Of Cadwallader is to find his due
place in the heraldic achievement of
the princes of Wales! We published
the other day the order of the king

Wales is represented in a painting
in one of the heraldie manuscripts
in the British museum-a manuscript
which contains colored drawings OF
the royal badges from Edward III
down to King Edward VI, and il
was presumably written in the days
Of Edward vi.
The banner Of King Henry VII. in
the Vincent MS, No. 1872, in the Col
lege of Arms, shows that the king
quartered the red dragon in a ban
ner with his other badges. Henry
also used the dragon as a supporter
and it can be seen with the white
greyhound in the chapel at Windsor
supporting a portcullis unsigned with
a rose. From this time the Tudor
monarchs used the dragon as one oil
