AS MALICIOUS
Position Taken BY J. c. osgood on
Rumors Of Discrepancy in G.
r. e. |. Accounts.

New York, Dec. 16-J. c. Osgood,
formerly chairman of the Board of Di'
rectors of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company, denied today the rumors OF
discrepancy in the account OF the
company. Osgood said: "The story
was made out of whole cloth and 1t is
not only untrue but it is malicious. If
it was true that $S,000,0O0 of the earn
ings had been used for improvements
without being accounted for, it seems
to me that the company would be the
gamer rather than the loser. AS
matter of fact not one penny of the
income has ever been spent without
the proper entries being made on the
books.

Corpus Christi. Tex, Jan. 5.-At
called meeting of the Board Of
Trade this afternoon, especial COM
mittee brought L. Lott before the
meeting. He was asked if he would
consider a proposition whereby the
proposed St. Louis, Brownsville d
Mexico Railroad would be built
through Corpus Christi. He said
IL was not the intention to run the
trunk line through Corpues Christi,
but he would consider proposition
to connect Corpus Christi with the
same by loop or tap road.
4 committee will mature a propo-
sition and submit the same to Mr..
Lott later. Mr.. Lott says the road
will in all probability pass through
Sinton and Sharpsburg and will go
in as straight line as possible to
Brownsville. He says the develop
ment of artesian water in the lower
country Is the chief incentive for
the construction of the road. The
land owners in that section have
subscribed liberally.-Express Spe-

A city girl writes: 1t is fond
dream of mine to become a far
mer's wife and meander with him
down LIES pathway" says an ex-
change. All, yes, that is a nice
thing, but when your husband
rmeaders off and leaves you without
wood, and you have to meander up
and down the land pulling splint-
ers off the fence to cook dinner, and
when YOU meander around in wet
grass in search of the COW till your
shoes are the color Of rawhide and
your stockings are soaked, and
when YOU meander out across 30
acres of plowed ground, to drive
the hogs out of the cornfeld and
tear your dress on 4 barbed wire
fence. when you meander back
home to the house and find that
the billy goat had butted the stuff
fno out of a child and find the old
hen and 40 chickens in the parlor,
You'll put your hand on your hips
and realize that meandering Is not
what it is cracked up to be.
