A Good Suggestion.

The suggestion for series of sum-
mer attractions for Palestine meets
with favor. The idea is good one,
and if the right kind of attractions
were offered, good, clean amusement
that could be patronized by the best
class of our people, the entertainment
ought to pay the promoters. The Her.
aid would be glad to see the matter
taken up and pushed. There are
coming some long, hot, dull evenings,
and it would be relief to know there
was some place to go at least once in a
week where diversion was offered.
Why not work such a scheme in con-
nection with one or more of the musi-
cal organizations of the city, and make
good music feature of the program?
Get busy and let's have the summer
shows.

Warmly Received.

Mr.. Oliver of the Oliver Music House
asks the Herald to say for him that he
is more than pleased at the reception
given him by the people of this city,
and that so far his relations and trans
actions with them have been very
pleasant, and he has found them an
agreeable people to do business with,
as they seem to know what they want
and bow to get it without any gratui-
tious advice. He also says the big sale
is pronounced success, and the peo-
pie of Palestine demonstrate that they
know good thing when they see it.
If you haven't been up to look at the
big stocE yet, he invites you to do so
at once.

for their special benefit. The first en-
tertainment will take place on the ev-
ening of May u. No admission, no

WILL BUILD A new CHURCH HOUSE

The Herald learns that st. Philips
Episcopal church is to soon have an
elegant new home. A deal is virtually
closed by the officers of the church for
beautiful lot on the corner of Line
and Short streets, opposite Mr.. Trice's
home, and here new brick church
and a new rectory will be built. We
understand the new buildings will cost
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1905-05-05

about $4,000. The lot secured, for
which the deed is now being drawn
up, is one of the prettiest in the city,
and will make an ideal location for a
church building, in that it is centrally
located, but so situated that there is
little noise close by. The Herald will
have more to say of this matter at a
later day.

a CHANGE AT LAST.

A certain grocery man there lived
And he was wondrous wise;
He had some very novel thoughts
On how to advertise.
And so before the peoples eye
His merits to assert,
He never changed his window fronts
And rarely changed his shirt.
He showed the same display of prunes,
OF crackers and of soap;
And If he didn't keep thing
He CURLY answered "Nope."
The public must itself find out,
He held, what goods he had,
So while he often changed his clerks
He never changed his ad.
The rival grocery next door
He marveled why it grew;
What useless energy, each day
To offer something new!
He To ~ his weIl-worn course
Wnne sznter waned his till;
He would not change his mind, and he
Could seldom change bill.
The soap and crackers crumbled all,
And moldy waxed each prune;
His local ad extolled can peas
Tho now twas juicy June.
His face was glum-he never changed
Its stolid, dull stagnation;
And so the sheriff closed him up
And changed his occupation.

RUSSIAN SECURITIES
Are Not Refused as Collateral in
Ranks-Demard Higher Margins.

ST. Petersburg, Nov. 17.-12.5G p. M
The manager Of the local branch of the
Credit Lyonnais denies the report that
the bank is refusing to accept Russian
securities as collateral. On account of
the unsettled condition and the heavy
fall in prices on the Bourse, however.
the bank insists upon larger margins.
The Following formal statement ON the
subject was made by the bank:
THE Credit Lyonnais is continuing
making advances on stocks, but owing
to the fall in state funds and indus
trials and the narrow market of the
st Petersburg Bourse, il requires
larger margins than formerly"
Other banks are also adopting the
same course and there is 4 noticeable
disposition on the part Of all the bank
ers to reduce their commitments.

shanty and suffering from only a few
bruises. On Wednesday. he was checked
off by the timekeeper to go into the
mine with the others, but for some rea-
son he remained above and was hurt
by dying debris. When the explosion
occurred thinking only of his own in
jurios, he went only to his shanty and
has been there ever since. The discov-
cry of Shicola reduces the death list
20 seven, the bodies of all of whom have
been recovered.
