MR.. COLBY WILL HAVE CHARGE
OF the Preliminary Survey and viii
Begin next Week

A meeting of those interested in
the proposed line Of railway from
Chickasha to Sherman or Denison
was held at the commercial club
rooms yesterday afternoon and II
was definitely arranged to put a

who has much experience in rail.

Of the preliminary survey and he
expects to begin next Mon.
day The first work will be In
the nature of a horseback sur
vey. - the entire route being trav'
ersed and the most feasible line
selected for the final survey. Mr.
Colby went over a portion of the
proposed line several years age
while working tor another COM
pany and is familiar with the coun'
try through which it passes
The promoters of this road have
received encouragement from all
the principal towns along tbs
line. 1t is recognized that The
road would be a winner. Chicka-
sha is much interested in the pro
posed line since It would give tn,
city connection with several trunk
lines at its eastern terminus and
would affond another outlet to th'
Gulf for the product of this sec
ton.
Il is proposed to push the worl
as rapi lily as possible. ChickashI
people are back of ;ttf enterprise
and it should meet with the hearty
encouragement of everyone.

Leader Of that city:
~ feel confident that the con-

the sixty days prescribed by the

come in few days and the. con-
vention next week W Il make great
headway.
1T would appear that the con-
stitution is so well along toward
its formation ithat it will be pos
sible to adjourn for the holidays on
Friday, December 2I, to reconvene
on January 3. We will then have
qeen in session thirty days, half Of
the period contemplated by con-
gress, and | fully believe that by
that date we can afford to take a
little time for peace on earth yood

A Lover of Pigs.

For many years Lord Gardenstone
was one Vi the characters of Edin-
burgh and as such received paco
among the famous Rays portraits. He
was represented riding on an old horse,
with dog in front and a boy dressed
in IL kilt behind. \ detailed account
of the picture states that Kay por-
trayed him as, what he really was, a
very timid borseman, mounted on an
old hack, which he had selected for its
want of spirit, preceded by his favorite
dog Smash and followed by highland
of the horse on arriving at parliament
house. His eccentricity took the even
stranger form of Il strong affection for
pigs. He became so much attached to
one that he allowed it to share his bed,
and when good feeding and rapid
growth made it a rather cumbersome
bedfellow il was still lodged in com
Portable quarters in the apartment.
During the daytime it followed him
about like Il dog. One morning farm
er had occasion to visit his lordship
and, being shown into his bedroo m,
stumbled upon some object. That OBJ
ject gave vent to an uncompromising
grunt and squeal of complaint, and
from the bed there proceeded voice,
