The following spec ial, under date OF
February "a. was sent from Uleburne
to the Houston Daily Chronicle:
Transmitman McFadden of the 10
teruational and Great Northern rail-
way survey was here today and
stated that the Surveying corps was
now engaged in running a line from
Ellis county by way of Wyatt, 10
Johnson county. A lice had pre-
viously been surveyed to Venus, in
fact the latter town took the road
away from Cleburue, and il was
thought that the Fort Worth right
f-wsy had been fixed, but, by the
above information, 1t seems 1t has
not.
Mr.. McFadden said; "The corps
expense to the Gould people is about
$1,000 per month, but what Is this
when the shortening of line or the
lowering of grade Is considered. A
road is not built for day, but for all
time"
II the "Wyatt' line shows best 1t
may be accepted, but If 1t does not Il 0
road will go on to Venus as originally
proposed,

NOPE ON. HOPE EYE.

If your Christmas present didn't
come don't despair. Perhaps it will
come this week, or next, or the week
after that There is said to be ire
mendous pile of packages and boxes
now piled up in the Dead Letter office
Of the Postoffice department. Thou
sands OF bundles have found their way
to the Dead Letter office because they
could not be delivered by reason Of mis-
takes in the addresses. The experts Of
the service are hard at work correcting
the errors of the senders. But the pile
of packages will increase every day for
the next week or two, as the postoffices
in remote parts of the country contrib
ute their portion of ownerless bundles
Many of the boxes will be sent to the
proper destinations.
So hope on, hope ever. There is some
satisfaction in thinking that what you
want may be in the Dead Letter office
or somewhere else, and that it may pos
sibly get around to you.
