The GAINESVILLE Times says the
Red River county farmer who al
WAYS has a we'll filled smokehouse
in his back yard may not be get
ting as much free advertising as
the big packers, but he is the
owner Of packing house worth a
whole lot more to his family and
TO all Red River county than any
of the big Eastern concerns.
To which State Press, OF the
Dallas News adds, not to him alone
does the benefits come. Ii ne has
a smokehouse the chances are that
he is out Of debt and the mortgage
does not disturb him and his fam
lily even in the dead hours OF night.
His neighbors remark his happy
condition, and they themselves
follow his lines of life and are
happy too. Caldwell News.chrOn'

A. AND N. COLLEGE VACANCIES.
None Of the Proiessorships are yet Fill.
ed Except Temporarily.

President II. II. Harrington Of
the A. & NJ. College has refined
from Dallas, where he n :, the com.
mittee OF the lard Of directors
'ha' . charged with the duty of
filing vacancies in the faculty. The
members of the committee are
Hon. Geo. T. Jester, Hon. w. j.
CLAY and President Harrington.
In the matter Of a successor to the
late DR.. T. G. Bittle, it was decided
not to fill the vacancy until after
the holidays, giving more time. 1t
is recognized that it will be hard to
find man of the necessary qualiti
cations, ministerial and educa-
tional, to fill the place. In the
meantime the committe placed Mr..
C. B. Campbell, instructor in
modern languages, in charge of the
department, with the temporary
rank of associate professor.
Another vacancy to be filled Is
the position as professor OF
chemistry and chemist to the ex-
pertinent station, made vacant by
the election Of Prof. Harrington to
the presidency Of the college. This
vacancy like the other, the COM
mittee decided not to fill at the
present time. Accordingly Dr.
G.. 5. Traps, who has been in
charge of the work in chemistry
since President Harrington gave up
the work, was confirmed as acting
head of the department and tempo
rary state chemist.
The committee elected DR.. K. 7.
Marstellar, a graduate from the
veterinary department OF the Uni
versity Of Ohio, to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of DR.. J.
II. Reitz as assistant in the vetri'
nary department. DR.. Rietz has
entered the service of the federal
government.
Another new man at the college
is Mr.. ]. Z. Lear, instructor in
physics and electrical engineering.
Mr.. Lear is a graduate Of the Vir
ginia Polytechnic Institute. He
spent year in special work at
Cornell, and has had several years
practical experience.
On account of the committee at
Dallas and other pressing business,
President Harrington was unable
to get off to Washington to attend
the meeting of the presidents OF
the Agricultural and Mechanical
Colleges held there this week.

The DEBT OF DAVIS IS GROWING
BOLD ATTEMPT TO
TOUCH ROEbL|NG
MAN PRESUMED ON DISAPPEAR
ANCE OF LAD
To Get $50 From Boys Grandfather,
But Was Placed in Jail
Instead.

New York, May 25.-The arrest of
Daniel Dolan here disclosed a
slick attempt to get money under false
pretenses. Siegfricd Roebling, IA years
OF age, disappeared from his home in
Asheville, N c., last Sunday. He was
student at an Asheville school, and
1t was supposed that he had simply run
away to escape his studies, as he had
often remarked that he was tired Of
studying
The young mans grandfather,
president of the Roebling Construction
Co., of Trenton N. j., received a tele-
gram purporting to come from the boy
in this city and requesting that $50 be
sent him with which to return home.
Mr.. Roebling went to the address
given and had been there but a short
time when a young man came In and
asked If $50 had arrived for him.
The young man said that he had left
the boy at saloon and offered to take
Mr.. Roebling there. The grandfather,
believing that the young man was tell
ing the truth, went with him, but when
they arrived at the saloon there was no
young Roebling there. 1t was then
that Mr. Roebling became suspicious
and caused the mans arrest.
The prisoner, who gave his name as
Daniel Dolan, 20 years old, was locked
up in the Thirtieth street station,
charged with attempted larceny, and
will be arraigned for examination to-
day.
