CLOSE FOLKS THESE.

Two prominent Wall street brokers
while at luncheon one day last week
INDUCED in a series of good natured
determinations about the tendencies
of each to refrain from spending
money. One said to the other:
Il don't blame you for being close.
1t is in the family. Why, / remem-
Der you father when he ran a grocery
store. He was SO close that II a fly
settled in the sugar barrel he used to
catch the fly, dust its feet off with a
broom and let it 60"
"So?"said the other. You needn't
get chesty. Your father was a far
mer. l IA remember when he raised
bees. He made those poor bees work
hard all day, and, not satisfied with
that, he crossed them with lightning
bugs and made them work nights"
That's right" said the first good
naturally. THE old man was a
thrifty chap. Why, / remember
when he crossed strawberry plants
and milkweed and got Strawberries
and cream"
They had 4 drink.-New York Tri.

WHAT ONE WRITER THINKS.

Every girl wants to marry. She is
thoroughly satisfied that aman Is nee
essary to the proper development of a
woman's life. Her ideal usually is
tall with classical features, ard the
frame of an Achilles. He must be
brave, yet gentle; Chesterfield in man.
ners, a Dewey in penetration, a Wins
ton Churchill in ambition. In thought
he must be as unsullied as Schiller or
Goethe; withal he must be strong and
brave: q lion among men; a knight
among ladies. But for fear she must
die an old maid, she will take most
any lath framed youth with mouse
colored hair and bat winged ears that
comes along smoking a coffin nail CT
garette that smells worse than a burn
ing rubber boot, and thus waste her
precious life trying to love one she
never admired.
The above paragraph was taken
from the columns of an exchange, and
while it may not be altogether true,
there is some truth i'm it. Some girls
are careless in their selections because
of this fear of old m%aidenhood, but is
itnot better to be a happy old maid
than to be an unhappy wife?

TnE BOIL WEEVIE.

The boil weeviT in Texas threat-
ems the future of the great cotton
crop of the State. While the rava-
ges Of the pest have been generally
understood and recognized, the mag
nitude Of the danger has been under
estimated. Prof. F. w. Malley, of
the A. and M. College, has on sew
eral occasions sounded a distinct
note of warning, but it remained in
letter to president Houston, of the
A. and M. College few days since
TO give in detail the extent of the
actual loss occasioned by the boil
weevil and its ardent compatriot,
the boil worm. Roughly estimated,
the depredations of the insect
enemies as demonstrated during the
present cotton season, Prof. Malley
places the loss at over 800, 600 bales,
which in turn the Galveston News
approximates at cash valuation of
S21 ,250, 900. These figures constitute
an object lesson which the farmers
and others interested cannot fail to
comprehend and understand. The
fearful increase in the danger over
previous years makes immediate
action necessary to prevent the ex-
tension of the weevil into the more
northern counties which have so
far escaped tt cir attention, and to
determine some plan looking to their
ultimate destruction. The march of
the weevil has been rapid and their
is danger of the insect including
every cotton county in the State in
his unwholesOme habitat. The dan
ger signal sounded by Prof, Malley
should at once be taken up by both
farmers and business men, and the
national government solicited to in
stitute fight which may, If the
weevil be not destroyed in its incipi
ency, be transferred to the fields of
the entire cotton belt and one of the
great revenue producers of the coun-
try seriously menaced. Only the
government can Systematically
wage warfare against the pests and
all the power and ingenuity OF the
Agricultural Department should be
put in the Southwest, Hous-
ton Texas.

A special from austin, under date
Of October 18th; 10 the Fort Worth
Register has the following 10 say u
the football game to be played to-
morrow afternoon by the Trinity
University and State University
elevens:
The football season has been a
series of surprises. The greatest of
these is the splendid record made
by the football team of Trinity uni
versity. Immediately upon moving
to Waxahachie Trinity decided to
engage in athletics and employed
Mr. Choate OF the University of
Michigan as coach. AS a result
the Trinity team has this year
twice defeated Baylor, the last time
80 to 0: has defeated Add Ran IS to 0,
and played the Agricultural and
Mechanical college 0 to 0 game.
AS the Agricultural and Mechanical
college played the University to a
standstill last Saturday it is hard to
say who will win the University
Trinity game here next Saturday.
Trinity says she is much stronger
now than when she shut out the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege, and is confident of victory.
The Trinity team has two old Uni
versity players on 1t, and several old
players formerly belonging to the
Waxahachie team.
The University boys no longer
wear the over-confident expression
of two weeks ago. They recognize
that they have hard proposition in
the Trinity game and are training to
win In spite OF that fact.
