Palestine Humane Society

An effort is being made to establish
humane society at Palestine, and in
quires have come to the agent of the
Houston organization asking for adj
vice and information. Palestine is
rapidly forging to the front in popula-
ton and public improvement, and as
there appears to be need for humane
organization there should be no reason
why such organization could not be
speedily effected. Houston's splendid
Humane society has wrought wonders
in creating healthy public spirit for
humaneness in every particular, and
the city could scarce dispense with it
now.-Houston Post.

BARON PLANCHES WAS WELCOMED.

Baron DIES Plsnches, ambassador
from Italy to the United States capt.
tai, was guest in the city yesterday
morning for about one hour. He was
scheduled to arrive here at 1880 Sun
day morning, but his train was several
minutes late, and the program arrang-
, ed for his reception was only partly
carried out. The city hall reception
was abandoned for the want of time.
On arrival in the city the distinguished
party was met at the station by num-
Der of representative people, and car
ried for drive over the city, or such
part of it as could be covered in the
brief time at the psrty's disposal.
General Manager Trice had the Baron
and two other members of the party
in his carriage, and the other members
of the party were taken in charge by
General Passenger Agent Price, Mr.. J.
w. Cement, Mr.. N. r. Royal and
other citizens. The drive was enjoyed
by the party, and Palestine came in
fer many compliments.
The party is travelling over the lines
of the l. & G. n. in Mr.. Trice's private

being fully looked after by the officials

thews.
The Juvenile Band, which was or
ganized and instructed by Mr.. Kitcher,
was special escort at his funeral and
played funeral march to their depart
ed leader.
Fred Kitchen lived an unostentatious
life, but by his liberality with his tai
ents and his obliging disposition to as
jim any public matter that called for
Z A.tt6s and service, he occupied a
posftion in the ranks of his fellow men
that will be hard to fill, and endeared
him to the community. He leaves a
wife and seven children who have the
profound sympathy of the entire COM
munity.

OF Galveston, General Agent Hawley

chairman of the state reception com
mittee for the entertainment of the
ambassador.
Before leaving the city the Baron
was presented with some beautiful
roses and as the train moved out from
the station he was hugging the flowers
and bowling his good-byes to the peo-
pie who had welcomed him.
The Baron is very pleasant look
ing gentleman, resembling an Ameri-
can more than the people of his coun-
try, speaks fluent English, and is al
together most entertaining gentle
man.
Travelling Passenger Agent Morris
OF the Texas Road says the visit of the
Baron to this city brought out a pc
cnliar fact in that the committee af-
ter diligent search was unable to To-
cate in this city or county a single
subject of the Baron's country, or any
one who could address him in his ma
tive tongue. Most all other nationali-
ties are represented in our population.
At 9 O'Clock the party proceeded on
north.

st. Petersburg, April 12.-The
admiralty has no information in
regard to the alleged naval pro-
gress off Anambas Islands, as re-
ported the newspapers of Amster-
dam from Batavia, and does not
credit the possibility of a general
naval battle yet.
The officials concede, however,
that the japanese may have at
tempted a torpedo boat attack on
the convoy during the night. 1t
is pointed out here that there is
no cable connection with the
Anambas Islands and Batavia,
and that news of the fight should
come from Singapore, unless the
Dutch warships are able to COM
municate with Batavia by wire

The Fall of Port Arthur.

One of the great landmarks in
the worlds history will be the
siege and fall of Port Arthur.
The heroism of his defenders, the
valor of it's besiegers is worthy
of the characterization of Troy.
For eleven months the Jap
anese have laid siege to fort
ress declared by military experts
to be. barely short of impregnable.
Fort by fort and mile by mile
they have crept nearer and near
er to the heart of the citidel of
which they were robbed after the
Chinese war. Men and munitions
they have poured out like water;
of patience they have had no end.
After the first few weeks there
could be no doubt in any man s
mind that the Japanese would
one day command the fortress.
Slowly, by almost incredible
pains, Japan has frightened it's
grip; the end was sure. For
grmness of purpose, for brillency
in planning and for bravery in
action no army has yet outdone
the Japanese besiegers of Port
Arthur. And the Russians?
They have simply laid down their
lives; theirs was a spirit that
would not be conquered. Their
heroic defense of fortress that
was clearly doomed is unparallel-
ed in the annals of warfare.
The siege of Port Arthur is in
a class by itself; there is nothing
in history to compare with it.

SUBSCRIPTION So PER YEAR
Looking Backward.

Looking backward.
The past year has been of solid
prosperity and advancement for
Bemidji and the great growing
territory Of which it is the busy
center.
Despite the fact that Bemidii
has become city of 900 people
it is one of the youngest cities of
the state. It's hardly nine years
old. Each year Of the nine there
have been many who have been
certain that Bemidji had reached
the high tide Of it's success and
who were prepared to watch the
ebb Of it's business. Each year
they have been wonderfully up
set in their predictions, and the
year of 1904 has been the best
for solid, permanent growth that
Bemidji has experienced. There
are evidences that the city is
undergoing change; conditions
are not just what they used to be.
Two or three years ago the bust
ness that flowed in and out Be.
midi was the business of a mush-
room town. The business that
has come to Bemidji during 1904
has been the business that comes
with the upbuilding Of the coun-
try; it is business that is per-
ennial. Every bit of it will come
again in 1905 together with the
additions which a steadily grow
ing country bring. It may truly
be said that the past year tells
more of what the future of Be
midi will be than has any of it's
predecessors.

me. I'm going up there for
business and pleasure going to
kill a man.
AS we were well along on the
wet trail, he turned and eyed me
suspiciously.
ssDon't suppose you know Hiro
Beecoff, do you? Well, you are
in luck to your neck. He's the
worst devil that ever wore shoe
leather. I and him have been at
outs for years. He is so crooked
that his blood can t circulate, and
he is so mean that a dog that
would foller him would turn to a
muskrat.
''He's been driving the hooks
into me since [ took girl away
from him, and it has been a
steady tussel betwixt US ever
since to see who could get the
upper hand. Two years ago he
broke a boom for me in Pelican
lakes and give me six days work
with my crew in picking up stray
logs. I dynamited a dam for him
and put him out of business for
months. I run a booze joint at
Gibson's Spur and was doing
fine when he came along and
I started a snake hospital to cure
the likker appetite on the
Kelley plan. I had to move on,
but got even when he run for
Office. There was a old woman
living on the poor farm and I got
her to write letters claiming she
was his mother. Last week Hiro
came back at me by having my
logging camp quarantined for
smallpox, just because one
round-head had a loud sneeze.
I'm tired Of being pushed by the
lowlifted jigger. Hanging is too
good for him, but I amt hoggish.
So have arbitrated, and will let
him off easy. I'm going to shoot
him. That will make a white
man outer him as good as hang
ing, I guess. I'm willing to try
, it once, anyhow.
'sHiro, said the postmaster of
Pinebow, ''has quit. He got
loaded with booze and slept out
on a stump last week and he
never thawed out again. Dead?
Just as dead as man ever gets.
He's in a box in the back room,
waiting for the ground to thaw
SO we can dig a grave without
too much work. =
I A loud wall went up from my
revengeful companion. The
would be murderer threw him
self upon the floor, bowling and
weeping. His strong form
shook with .hysterical sobs, and
his tears scattered like water
from a street sprinkler wagon.
When his grief had somewhat
subsidized, the postmaster spoke:
II guess Hiro must have been
a great friend to you
ssFriend!" Numbered the weep
ing man, sdo you think a friend
could make a baby outer me?
I've lost more than a drove of
friends. I can scrape up a friend
most anywhere, but for genu
inc wideawake faithful enemy
Hiro had no equals. Tt drives
me crazy to think I've lost the
best enemy I ever had. Hiro
was a man worth scrapping with.
