Two lncurabIe Crazes.

One Of the ways to get into swell
society is to butt in through the turf
or the tanbark-the race track or the
horse show. A certain well-known
man has already spent 100000 on
the tanbark, without penetrating the
outer cuticle of the haut monde, and
when he has spent another $500, 1000 he
will still be butting There are two
crazes which cannot be cured-the
craze for society and the craze for
political office.-New York Press.

There is dry doe In the woods
of Price county. VII. which ewes her
life to the fact ,.-..t she is not afraid
OF light. This sort of deer is occa-
sionally found by jack-hunters, but
not often Two men went out after
deer along the north fork of Flambeau
River last week. They were using
flat-bottomed boat. heavy and clumsy,
and one of them drove il with a pole.
At half past 10 O'Clock they saw a
buck. That Is, they caught a glance
Of his eye as r" slowed his head
around and lC them over His
shoulde: prep to leaping to
bank. He st half a second
and the power lamp show ed
just enough { expose his
horns as he went
An nohr later they rounded a bend
and the doe stood in full view She
was in prime condition, fat and sleek
She was not more shan twenty wards
distant and threw her head up and
glareA at the light as soon as it came
within range. It is possible that the
brightness of its rays blinded her.
The wind was blowing from her to the
hunters so she could not scent them.
The man who was polling dropped
the long pole, sat -iown and took up
the paddle. The boat continued to
advance and the deer to stand still
1t crept on foot by foot and she be.
tvAyed no nervousness. Now and then
she thrust her nose far upward, turn
ed her head to one side and expanded
her nostri!s in the effort to sniff the
scent of the approaching party, but
fight did not occur TO her.
The boat got within twenty feet Of
her, then within ten feet. Another
stroke of the paddle and it would
have been upon her. Then she turn
ed toward the bank and walked slow
ly away. Twice she stopped and look
ed back at the light; once she stop
ped, gathered a mouthfu of water
grass and cEewel it. Still at a walk.
never hurrying even into a slow rot.
she went up the bank and disa1
peared.
All this time there had been a man
sitting with hiSh power rifle just
behind the light. he wanted deer
neat badly and could, of course have
blown a hole through the animal # he
he haG been SO minded. In fact, be
could have knocked it down With the
guides pole which lay in the bottom
Of the boat. He said afterward:
Il could not sieot. She was a
very beautiful animal, standing re-
lieved IN the strong Light so that every
muscle showed. She looked straight
at me with her lustrous. large eyes,
that were not frightened, but merely
inquisitive, peering into the q eat
lamp to see if it contained anything
harmful or useful to her. She could
not see me. of course, as | was in
the black shadow aehind the light.
but could hardly persuade myself
that was unseen. Killing that deer
would have been simple murder"
The man got back to camp at 3 in
the morning, without a shot fired, but
he says that he felt better for 4 cleay
conscience.

FOR A CRED|TAB[E EXHIBIT
or TEXAS AT the WORLDS FAIR.
BRYAN ALMOST SOLID
For Support Of the Bill Before the Texas
Legislature for an Appropriation.

An Eagle reporter, believing that
the views OF the people Of Texas
should be ascertained regarding the
worlds fair appropriation bill now
before the Legislature, went among
the business men yesterday and pro-
pounded them questions on the sub
iect. We believe that the Legislature
should be made 10 understand the
views OF the people Of the state upon
the question. The bill appropriates
500 900 10 be expended under proper
safeguards and regulations, In erect
ing buildings and securing exhibits
Of the varied resources Of the state.
The reporter called at all the busi-
nels houses, mt some OF which he
found the proprietors absent, aud
could get no eXpr ssion. II was his
purpose, so far as opportunity pre-
scented, 10 interrogate farmers, pro-
fessional men and all classes. But
few farmers were In town, however.
The reporter saw fifty-two OF the
preventative business men. Ofthis
number two were found opposed TO
she measure, and four Others who
were Indifferent to the matter, aud
did not wish their names used. or
those favoring the measure, most Of
them were very enthusiastic, and
they constituted among the heaviest
taxpayers of the town. A few eX.
pressions we're as follows:
Or. n. w. McD""gald was hearth
~ iu favor OF the measure.
N. q. Rhodes: "Iwlsh you would
bear down strong on you pencil and
Bryan morning eagle. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1898-1909, 1903-03-01

say that / am In fryor Of this bill,
with the only objection being that
the amount proposed 10 be appropri-
ated is not enough. Texas Is great
state and Is able TO make as great a
showing at st. Louis as any other
state In the Union"
J. A. Myers says Texas Is not only
the biggest aud one of the most inn
portaut states In the union, but her
enormous resources are the least de-
veloped and the least known. BY
all means we shout have a liberal APP
preparation.
A. ID. McConnico says he always
favored measures OF the kind. IL
would be a disgrace 10 Texas not TO
have a creditable exhibit at st. Louis.
Burt Norwood said: 1.-The bill
ought TO pass. We will never have
another sush n good chance 10 adj
vertise Texas
w. +. Saunders: "A liberal meas
ure OF the kind should pass. do
not pretend 20 know how much
would be enough 10 do the work
we'll"
Parks 4 Waldrop: "Put US down
as strong supporters Of the bill"
Dansby 4 Dansby: Think Texas
should be well represented, and this
is the proper way to raise the mon
ey."
Il. S. Webb emphatically favor
ed an approprlation-amount to be
reasonable, aud not eXtrayagant.
Howell Bros: The bill should
pass by all means
Capt. Geo. w. Smith: "Emphat-
ically, our legislature should not let
pass this grand opportunity to adj
vertise Texas. The appropriation
81 ould be- made
Ed Hall: II think "a liberal APP
preparation should be made by the
Legislature"
Tyler Haswell: Don't like TO see
50 much money going out Of the
state, but making an exhibit at the
worlds fair Is certainly a move In
the line Of progress.
d.. j. W. Cayitt: ~ favor the
making Of a liberal appropriation ~
Wilson q jenkins: I'VE heartily
favor the measure
r.. G. Harder: II am opposed 10
such legislation. believe II we
have any money to give away, we
should give II 20 the needy, deserv-
ing people In our midst. DO not be-

lieve in squandering the peoples
money In such manner"
Ed. Convey, Of Cole Hardware Coz:
II think the move n good one
W. II. Johnston: Put me down
In favor OF IL. and make IL strong"
W.O Sanders: II favor the bill"
Tom +. Castles: II am In favor
Of an appropriation by the legislat-
ure provided liberal one is made.
No appropriation at all is preferable
TO little, Insignificant one. The
100000 appropriation should be al
lowed"
The following gentlemen answered
yes 10 the question II they favored
the appropriation: j. w. Dyer, Fred
T.. Pryor, B. Seigle, Harry Marwill,
ID. Mike, Jr., w. ID. Lawrence, Geo.
Higgs, Luther Taylor, NJ. II. James,
Will Rudasill, Claude Buchanan, +.
Marion Law, n. o. Boatwright, DIR.
b. 5. Read, =. n. Arlington, B. II.
Knowles, r.. X. Emmel, sam Hunt
or, q. NJ. Brandon, w. r. Sanders,
w. 4. Ford, VIII A. Reed, DR.. Har.
son, Ed Crenshaw, A. NJ. Rhodes.
These expressions show that Bryan
is overwhelmingly In favor Of the APP
preparation, and they want It large.
The people Of Bryan, like those Of
other parts OF Texas, SO far heard
from, think Texas Is a grand state in
wealth-developed and undevelOped.
They think the state is able TO make
a grand showing 10 the world at 81
Louis next year; that II will do her
immeasurable good 10 do so, and they
want IL done. They realize that
through an appropriation by the leg
islature is the only way Practicable
10 accomplish the object, and they
have the spirit to rise TO the occas-
ion and speak 10 their lawmakers Mt
Austin I'm no uncertain tones, telling
them what Is wanted at their hands.
Many expressed the idea embod-
led In the words Of Mr.. Tom +. Cas-
ties In the foregoing. They would
prefer no appropriation at all rather
than little insignificant one, that
would make a poor, cheap show. II
all the people Of Texas are minded
like those OF Bryan, and will speak
out, we will have an exhibit at st.
Louis next year that Texas people
need not be ashamed Of.

Funeral services we're held al

rowing friends, including many
nf Mrs. Cavitrs former pupils, who
were deeply attached to her. Upon

marks were full Of hope and in
spiration. He dwelt upon the
splendid christian character and
devotion to duty that marked the

preparation for immortality.
At the conclusion Of the dis.

one of the best instructors and dis
ciplinarians in the public school

yond her strength and satisfied only
with the best possible results, she
has left an impress upon the young
people Of Bryan that can never be

joyed the respect and the love OF
