/ George Hahn, rich tanner, with Of
fees at 83 Spruce street, New York
City, has been awarded the blue rib
bon for attedance at the theaters dur
Ing the season just ended. Mr.. Hahn
Is the champion theater-goer Of the
year-a committee from the Theatri-
cal Treasurers' Association has so de-
cided, according to the New York TEL
egraph.
All previous records for calls at the
box Office have been totally eclipsed by
the smiling, good-natured Hahn, whose
record Ii appalling. It shows that no
has played musical pieces as favorites,
although he has a fondness for the
legitimate, and Is not averse to giving
fair share Of his patronage to Shake
speare. During the season he paid for
400 seats and fifty boxes at Webers
Music Hall alone. The mosr careful
research shows that he contributed the
price Of more than 300 tickets to Lew
Fields theater and until the Casino was
closed by fire, he was piling up big
total at that house.
During the three weeks of the South
ern-Marlowe engagement at the Knicl1-
erbocker Hahn purchased eighteen
pairs Of seats and was present himself
on six occasions. "Mrs. Lefflngwell's
Boots" Hahn saw fourteen times, but

Hahn's right to the championship
belt was discovered after a somewhat
heated argument at the last regular

ton regarding the attractive qualities

The discussion grew warmer ana
finally it was decided to leave the
award Of the championship to COM
nittee Of theater treasurers. This COM
nittee has completed its investigations
and declares that Hahn's record seems
70 overwhelming that they have de-
.ided to vote him the blue ribbon.
In many instances Hahn could not
use the tickets purchased by
him and they were given to friends
md employees. He admitted over tn.
telephone to member Of the commit
zee that he had been absent from the
heater only twice during the season,
md that on those occasions he wee
detained elsewhere by pressing bus

FARMERS INSTITUTE.

Just why we don't have a
Farmers Institute for Randall
county is a question that is
rather hard to solve. It's a
good thing for not only the
farmers but the whole county
and some of our progressive
farmers should take hold oft,
as they are doing elsewhere, and
make a success of it. 1t can be
done and should be done and
The News at any and all times
is more than willing to lend it's
aid.
Our neighbor, Hereford, has
m& organization of this kind
and it is moving right along.
At the last meeting as record
ed in the Brand, officers headed
by Col. S. T. Howard as presi
dent, were elected for the pres
ent year. The truck question
was also taken up and from the
interest manifested, Hereford
not merely intents to have. but
has already, live progressive
farmers institute that will do
much towards keeping Hereford
and Deaf Smith county to the
front as good place for the
homeseeker to go to. They are
going at it right at Hereford
all hands, business men includ-
ed, and are bound to succeed.
Randall county in the way of
resources and possibilities has
the same chance of success and
why not take hold?
The News has logged along
these lines before and will keep
jogging along until something
is done. Speaking of the late
Hereford meeting 1.-The Brand"
says:
"Those who failed to attend
the Farmers Institute at the
court house last Saturday miss
ed a treat. The work has been
taken up with renewed energies
and it is pleasing indeed to see
the interest which is manifested.
The question which is just now
occupying the thoughts of the
farmers is that pertaining to
truck growing. Every member
of the truck growers association
is thoroughly aware of the fact
that truck of every possible de-
scription can be produced here
in remarkably large quantities
and of decidedly superior
quality, but it is the purpose of |
the association to raise only |
such products as will insure
shipment in car load lots. The
truck farming move is on to stay
and will figure quite prominent
ly IN the development of the
Panhandle country. In this
work the Deaf Smith and Castro
county association expect to
take the lead and pave the way
for our neighboring counties"
