DEATH OF FRANK TEMpLETOH
He Was an Early Settler Of Ellis
County.

BY the death Of Frank Templeton
which occurred at Ennis Saturday af-
ternoon, mention of which was made
in these columns, another pioneer
settler of Ellis county has passad
from the walks of men.
Mr.. Templeton was born at Stock
ton, Mo-, April 26, l843. He was
educated in the schools at Nee sho
and In his youth was apprenticed to
learn the printers trade in the Office
of the Neosho Chief. In 1860 he
came to Texas and spent a year at
Fort Worth. In 1861 he returned to
Missouri and enlisted in the Mis-
souri, State Guard under General
Price for one year. Afterward he
joined Company F, Third Alabama
Cavalry, and participated in many
of the most noted engagements un-
der Gen. Joseph f. Johnston. He
was wounded at New Hope church
and again in Tennessee, but was on
duty at the time of the surrender.
After the cessation of hostilities
he returned to the home of his
father, who had in 1861 moved to
Ellis county. After remaining at
home awhile Mr.. Templeton estab-
lished the Waxahachie Weekly Ar
gus, the first newspaper published
in Ellis county. His printing out
fit was ordered from New Orleans.
After conducting the Argus two
years he sold out to James Shaw
and turned his attention to agri-
cultural pursuits. At the time of
his death he owned extensive farm
ing lands near Ennis.
Mr.. Templeton was broad minded
and liberal in his views and was one
of Ellis county's most public spirit
ed citizens.

THE PROTRlCTED MEETING
Church Could Not Accommodate
the People Last Might.

A good audience assembled at the
Main Street Christian church, on
Saturday night to attend the gospel
in-song service and there was one
addition to the church. Yesterday
| morning the attendance was some
what interfered with by the weather,
although there was good audience.
Last night there were more people
| than the house could accommodate
Chairs were put in every available
| place, a number stood, and still
there were those who were turned
away. There have been thus far
four additions to the church and the
attendance and attention manifest
much interest in the subjects that
are being presented. Tonight there
will be baptizing after the sermon.
Last night after the song service
and solo by Mr.. Brewer, which
were very much enjoyed, Mr.. Nc
Pherson spoke on 1.-THE Creed of
the Old Time Religion" He re-
ceived the closest attention through
out the sermon. We will not at
tempt an outline of the subject here.
The subjects announced are as fol-
lows:
Tonight-How men get the Old
Time Religion.
Tuesday-Faith according to the
Old Time Religion.
nesday-Repentance accord
ing 10 Old Time Religion.
Thursday Baptism according to
Old Time Religion.
Friday-The church of the Old
Time Religion.
Saturday-to be announced
Sunday II a. m.-The man Of Gal
lice, p. m. Almost Persuaded.
On the reverse side OF the cards
announcing the above subjects and
which were distributed last night is
the following: 1--WE try to teach
the Old Time Religion. We believe
it is just what the world needs. "
In speaking of this today Pastor
Mcpherson said:
by this we do not mean that in
our appliance we must not use any
modern methods. But we do mean
| that the RELIGION, it's FAITH, its
ORDINANCES, its LIFE should never
change unless this is done by the
authority of Jesus Christ. The
church, guided by the Holy Spirit,
was united; we believe it should be
so united today. 1t had no man
made creed; we believe that we
should have none. 1t accepted only
the names given by the Holy Spirit;
we believe that we should wear no
other. 1t preached, as conditions
of pardon, only what the Savior
commanded; we accept no other
1t practiced only one baptism; We
know but one. In matters of mere
opinion it gave the largest liberty
should not we grant the same? We
invite you to hear the series of ser
mons on Old Time Religion"

Ellis Visited by Rain.

Ellis county has been visited by
a much needed rain. A light show
er fell yesterday morning and today
about noon the downpour was quite
heavy. From indications the rain
was general over the county and will
be of untold benefit 20 crops. Young
corn and cotton received a setback
by the recent frost and cold spell
but they will soon recover and be-
gin growing rapidly. The farmers
are very much encouraged over the
present outlook for a big crop of ali
kinds.

GREEN AND GOLD GOES DOWN
The Baylor AEsrekation Again
Defeated by the Trinity Team.
SHOW me the way to go home; please,
Show me the way to go home;
For we've been beat la the last three game
Show me the way to go home.

SHOW me the way to go home; please,
Show me the way TO 90 home;
For we've been beat ia the last three games,
Show me the way to go home.
On last Saturday afternoon Bay
lor again went down in defeat be-
fore the white stockinged aggrega-
tion of ball tossers who hail from
Trinity. The game, like the pre-
ceeding one, was a well played con-
test and showed good team work on
both sides. Four cotton legged
Trinitonians successfully made the
circuit of the bases, while one lonely
tally kept large goose egg from
being marked up against Baylor.
Big Bruce Templeton appeared
on the slab for Trinity and dished
out nice assortment OF dinky balls
to Baylor, letting them down with
three hits. He seemed to have no
fear of the slugging ability of the
boys from Waco, appearing to have
great confidence in his support and
this confidence was not misplaced,
for the Trinity boys made good in
every inning but the first, when
Baylor made their only run from a
combination OF errors.
Coffman, the delicate looking
twirler who hangs his hat up at
Baird, tossed them over for Baylor,
and ever and anon watched the ball
with hungry eyes as some maroon
uniformed willow-wielder with his
favorite stick directed the sphere
just where no Baylor man chanced
! To stand. Nine times during the
game did Trinity connect safely with
his hand outs. In addition his sup
port was rather ragged.
The game was played as follows:
Mckay led off by hitting the first
ball pitched through the hands of a
Trinity out-felder and made the
circuit OF bases on the error. After
that they went down in one, two,
three order.
Trinity punched hits in the sixth
and seventh innings and aIued by
| errors sent two men across the
plate in each inning. This was the
extent Of the run getting.
In the ninth inning with one man
out Baylor made bold bid for
| the game. Wilcox succeeded in
| making il to secoud. Weary VIII
lie Cotfy" now appeared ia the bat
ter's box and gave his farewell per
formance. With his smile of con-
fidence gone, he tore great holes in
the atmosphere in vain endeavor
To park" the ball. But the best he
could do was TO lift a little infield
fly on which Wilcox was doubled at
second.
Trinity will play Austin college
here the latter part of this week.
The games will be of special inter
est as Austin college has a strong
team, however, the Trinity boys are
as usual confident Of victory. Time
of game 80 minutes, Following is
the lineup.

abuses of the second-class mailing
privileges is moving forward and can
be completed in two years. Upward
of thirty publications are still involved
in court proceedings on the question Of
second-class privileges, and on the re
suit OF these cases a great part of the
reform depends Mr. Madden expects
the court proceedings will be ended
within the next few months and the
way then opened TO complete the re-
form. Mr.. Madden recommends that
congress consolidate the third and
fourth classes of mail matter and fix
the rate OF postage at L cent for each
two ounces or fraction thereof. The
report compares the expenditures for
rural free delivery and the deficiency
in postal revenues for the LAST three
fiscal years and says:
Increased Expenditure.
THE rate of increase in expenditure for
the introduction and maintenance of the
