One OF the changes brought about by
the New year was the removal of one oil
TupeIe's most popular plsces OF bus
mess. Huffman's Art GaIlers. The in
creasing demands for more room and
greater facilities for keeping up with the
business made it necessary to seek new
quarters. The second floor OF the Dick
son building on Spring street was re-
cured and fitted up with every necessary
convenience and the proprietors is now
ready to give the public the best oi
work in his line. The gallery ia credit

BE it said to the credit of the

mating the probable size Of tn,
Texas Indian Territory crop al
2,562, 557 bales against lass years
production OF 3,594, 900 bales.
There is little hope for a mod
crate crop much less 1t full yielC
'of IL, 500, 600 which with the re
quiremcnts of the world woulc
not be an excess.
