stock receipts at leading centers
have, as II rule, reached, If they
did not exceed, last years level.

Passing of Big Ranches.

Old time Texans cannot help
noticing the many changes that
are wraught in the general condi-
tions throughout the country,
and oft times, no doubt, it brings
pangs of regret TO their minds.
Less than two decades have mark
ed great progress in their sur
roundings, and where twenty years
ago one could travel for u hun
dred miles without having TO
cross II single fence or pass hui
man habltation, perhaps, today
there are scores of handsome farm
houses and n perfect cobweb Of
barb wire enclosures. The big
ranch is no more. 1t has been
swallowed up in the march of
progress and is rapidly becoming
II memory of the past. Only in
the extreme parts of the great
Lone Star State is there left any
thing that approaches it either in
the matter of proportion or sur
roundings, and these are mere
semblances of what the ranch
used to he. Where once only
cattle roamed the broad parairies,
today there are prosperous farms
and thrifty landsmen, who have
gained their independence through
their matchless energy and rug
ged enterprise. Are not these
conditions an improvement over
those of former, years? Assured
ly there are yet those who de-
plore the change, nor can they be
blamed for it. Human nature
does not change as fast as the
country, and the pioneer will
naturally cling to old-time GUS
toms and associations. L. j.
Webb of Ballinger, one of the
best known stockmen in that part
of the state, IS among the num-
bers of old-time cowmen who de.
plore the passing of the big ranch
es, and wonder what the future
has in store for who those cannot
reconcile themselves to the exist
ing conditions. Mr.. Webb says
"When | landed in Texas some
thirty years ago ! was told that
the whole western and northwest.
ern part of the state was worth.
less except for grazing purposes
For many years no attempt was
made whatever to farm or raise
anything but cattle, and now al
over that section people are farm
ing on a large scale. Twice since

forced to move further west anC

been bought three years ago fol
81 80 an acre, now sell at from

are the conditions all through

all kinds are being raised, and i
is but a question of a little time
when it will be a first-class farm
ing country. Reporter.

Going Out Ct Business.

Having allowed my stock to run
down because of my having sometime
since decided to retire from business,
| now find myself out of so many
articles as to make it inexpedient to
serve my regular family trade in a
manner satisfactory, either to my Gus
toners or to myself, it therefore be-
comes necessary for me to discontinue
soliciting the customary orders from
this date.
All goods remaining on hand will
be disposed of for cash in quantities
to suit in order to close out as quickly
as possibly.
I take this opportunity to express
my heartfelt thanks to all who have
so generously favored me with their
patronage during the years l have
been doing business in Carson City.
Not only do l appreciate the kind
nes, but regret most sincerity the
severance of the pleasant relations
that have always existed between us.

According to his Folly.

A young Japanese compositor en-
ployed on a japanese paper in New
York was riding downtown in a City
Hall train the other morning. He was
engrossed in his morning paper, and
paid little attention to the other pas
sengers.
But a fresh-looking young man who
sat mex to him, and who had been
eying him all along, suddenly asked;
what sort of a 'nese' are you, any
way? A Chinese oil a J~apanese?"
The little Jap was not caught nap
ping. Quick as a wink he replied:
"What sort of a key are you, any
way? A monkey, a donkey, or a Yam
KEEP"
The fresh young man had no more
to say. and left the train quickly when
the City Hall station was reached.

CHILD'S ODD DEPRIVATION.
Boy of Fourteen Years Old Who Had
Never Seen Other hiidre


Never Seen Other Children.
did you ever hear of a child or ever
know of one yourself that had never
seen a child?" asked a man who takes
an interest in the oddities. "Well,
1 have, and the case Is not a thousand
miles from New Orleans, either. The
child in this instance had rounded into
its fifteenth year before it had ever
laid eyes on another child. 1t had
never heard the musica prattle of
companions other than the father and
mother. The parents settled across the
lake a few years ago., after a long
residence on a small island Of the sea.
where the child was born and
where 1t spent fourteen years of its
life there were no children. The little
fellow knew no associate but sle faith
er and mother. / have often wondered
since learning of this case what
must have been the impression of the
youngster when he gazed for the first
time on a member of the human fam
lily smaller than he was. Did he think
he had come upon a race of dwarfs ?
Or had his parents given him some
idea of the existence of children? I
do not know the family, and, therefore,
cannot answer these questions.
But l would like to know just how
the little fellow felt when he first be-
held a child. 1t is the only case Of the
kind which has come to my knowledge.
He had never had an opportunity to
play the little games which most of us
knew in the days of our childhood.
He had gone through any of the
things which made young life sweet to
all of us fellows, and, while not know
ing but what there may be compensat-
ing advantages in a life of this sort, 1
have always felt a bit sorry for the
y%oungster in question.
Come to think of it, he missed a
few things one would like to forget,
for l suppose most of us have felt the
rap Of the maternal slipper because Of
d~isobedience due directly to ones COM
panions. At any rate, we have always
cherished the idea that our companions
were in a measure responsible for
many of the raps we got. The child
who never knew a child could not be
led astray in this way. So we do not
know but that the lack of companion
ship may have something to commend
it."-New Orleans correspondence Chi
cago Journal.

POPULARITY OF SONGS
Some of Our Catchy Airs Capture the
Hearts of All Europe.


1t is as hard to account for the popu-

popularity of certain books, writes the
"Lounger" in the Critic. One time it
was "McGinty," whose adventures at
the bottom Of the sea took possession
OF the whistling and organ-grinding
world; later it was "Mr. Dooley;" now
it is "Hiawatha," which is described
as 1.-THE mad melody that will not
