By Will of Grandfather, c. D,

His grandfather, H. Sinclair,
who is known in sections of the
the south as the Swine king, of
the SOUTH" lives at Sinclair La,
where he has swine ranch of Co.
900 acres, with an annual output
of half million hogs, which are
marketed at the great livestock
centers of the country. His for
tune is placed at $2,75o 900 and
with desire to do away with any
litigation that might follow his
death in the distribution of his
property he had his will executed
so that he might live to see all of
his relatives fairly dealt with.
Mr. Sinclair, of this city, to whom
fortune has favored is a young man
of twenty-five years, and with his
wife has made his home at 200,
North Fillmore street. He has re-
signed from his position here with

at which time the fortune Of his ,
grandfather will find its way to his
relatives and friends named in the
will.

At the Opera House.

The popularity of the Woods
Sisters productions under the man
agement of Mr.. Otto Krause is
evidenced by the large attendance
nightly at these performances. Be-
ginning with their first presenta-
ton Monday evening a full house
has greeted this popular company
throughout their entire engage
ment thus far this week. The
company is exceptionally strong in
comedy-drama, supplemented by
good individual work and inter
posed with clever speciality. Satur-
day afternoon, for the first time in
this city, the company will present
special matinee, Little Red Rid
ing Hood" This is one of the
most popular attractions with the
younger folks and to those older
will serve to bring back the memo
ries of youth when exaggerated at
tention was given the old nursery
rhymes. Tonight A Struggle

banks. One town alone shows
over $9oo,ooo,oo individual de-
posts, and another $60O.oOO.O0.
Of the certificates of deposits one
town has $l4l,l95.Oo and another
$55, $4,000, showing that the
farmers in those localities have
more money than is required for
the conduct of their current bust
ness. One bank has over a half
million dollars on deposit, three
over three hundred thousand each
and six over two hundred thous-
and dollars each. These figures
do not include deposits of other
banks, nor Of the government de-
posits, as it is the intention to show
only the money belonging to the
people.
The foregoing figures show a
healthy and prosperous condition
of that part of the state which has
received so much attention during
the past two or three years.

The Going of Marshall.

Mr.. W. S, Marshall and wife left
Wednesday for Delton, Wisconsin,
where they go to make their home
in the future. They will reside at
the old homestead where Mr.. Mar
shall was raised. We have no hes
fancy in saying that the Panhandle
country suffers a great loss in the
departure of this energetic, vigor-
Gus and progressive citizen. He
was a pioneer of those who prophe-
sled great future for the Panhan-
die and his articles extolling the
richness and wonderful possibilities
of this section have been raed from
one end of the country to the 9TH
er and have been great factor in
bringing so many people to this
beautiful section. While regret
ting his departure we are glad to
know that he still retains landed
interests in this country, retaining
his ranch lands Of $3.50 acres,
which will necessitate an occasion
al visit to Charming, and it is more
than probable that when he does
come he will be accompanied by
people who will cast their lot with
US. Yet, for all this, we exceed
ingly regret to see him 60, and his
many Panhandle friends will join
US in wishing him and his good wife
