Manager DuBose, Of the Cotton
Mills, has presented this office with
large double towel made by his
mills. The towel is of splendid
quality, well made and durable and
should be a ready seller on the mar
kets. This is a new departure for
the mills. and one which gives every
promise of success. Some time
aimee Manager DuBose and Super
intendent Howorth conceived the
idea OF manufacturing toweling, and
with this end in view ordered four
machines as an experiment. These
machines are now running full time
and turning out 100 owels every
day. Mr.. Du Bose is Of the opinion
that ha will find ready market for
all they can manufacture, aud at a
price which will give the mill good
profit, ut the same time leaving the
dealer u fair margin and selling TO
the customer at most reasonable
price. This paper 70 glad TO see the

| CHARMING SOCIAL EVENT
Ladies Of Christian Church En-.
tertain with Masquerade
Contest.

A most charming event in
the social world was the mas
querade contest given yesterday by
the ladies of the Main Street Chris
tian church. This event, which
seemed unusually marked in its
sweet spirit Of geniality, was an af-
ternoon and evening affair and took
place at the commOdious and hos
pitable home of Mr.. and Mrs. n.
w. Leeper on West Main street.
Mrs Leeper acted the role of
hostess in a most charming manner
and contributed her part toward
making the affair the decided sue
cess 1t was.
This event was one of rather
uniquenature. It.was designated as
masquerade contest, the feature be-
ing that twelve ladies and one' gem
tleman represented thirteen different
nations. They were masked and
dressed In the costume peculiar to
the nations represented. The ladies
were Mesdames w. A. Gibson, Y.
ID. Kemble, Chas. Teutsch, r. A.
Ferris, and Misses Fannie Malone.
Annie Laura Trippett, Mary Suggs,
Maud Gibson, j. +. Strickland,
Emma Gibson, Mary Chapman and
Mamie Rogers. Mr.. w. A, Gibson
represented Uncle Sam. Each per
son was numbered and cards bear
ing corresponding numbers were
passed among the guests. The con-
test consisted In writing on the card
the name OF the person masked and
the nation represented by each.
This feature evoked quite good
deal OF interest. In the afternoon
the prize was won by Mrs. T. NJ.
Sleeper and the evening prize was
awarded to Mr.. Rufus Rynum. Both
prizes were potted plants in bloom.
The attendance in the afternoon
was quite good, but in the evening
a large number were present. The
young ladies made a leap year affair
of the evening entertainment, invit-
ing the young men TO 20 with them
aud paying all expenses.
The house was beautifully decor
ated in national colors, and fruit
nectar was served.
The proceeds from the contest,
amounting to about $27 20, will 90 to
the general fund of the Christian
church.

To the Democracy sI,

State Treasurer, {. uoIn ',onv v-l4rat-
tention to the following sentence
found IN my circular letter announc-
ing my candidacy for reelection
two years ago. THE First National
Bank of Austin, Texas, has reorga-
nized, resumed businessand las paid
/. the Treasurer $97 ,92I 80, and will pay
the State every dollar of the bal
ance due according to agreement. +"
/ now say to the good people OF
Texas that every dollar was paid and
every pledge that l made was fol-
| filed. My record is now before the
people, and upon that record / stand
for reelection.
| AS Democrat, ] have always
been loyal; as a public servant, /
have put forth the best efforts of
my life to render faithful and eff
cient service. The duties of
Treasurer are largely fixed by stat
ute, hence there can be no real is
! :ccc, except "a pledge OF honest,
faithful and efficient service.
During my term of Office the re-
ceipts and disbursements have been
SS3 ,333, ,J92. 10, and every dollar of
this large amount of money has
been paid out according to law or is
now in the vaults of the treasury.
The Democrats of Texas have
made few changes in this depart
ment; the rule has been to continue
man in office until he voluntarily
retires from weight Of respon sibility.
J. H. Raymond served twelve years
as State Treasurer; c. H. Ran
dolph, eight years; the tried and
true friend OF Texas, Ex-Governor
f. r. Lubbock, served twelve years
and the knightly W. b. Workman
served eight years consecutively
without opposition, and retired, like
his predecessors, of his own voli-
tion.
Now as l have always had a great
aversion to breaking or changing
long established Democratic laws
or usages, i most respectfully So
licit the earnest support of every
voter in Texas. L promise, if elect
ed, to render just as faithful service
as in the past; and with the expeI
ience that / have had, | confidently
believe that / can render more eff
cient services, and will-put forth my
best energies to make my last term
the best. Thanking the Democracy
of Texas, one and all, for the very
generous support they have given
me in the past, and most respect
fully soliciting their support for re-
election, | am, very respectfully
Your obedient servant,

Mr.. Mitchell began:
