The correspondence committee
OF the Chamber of Commerce has
made arrangements to receive any
information pertaining to the
mines of the county at the office
OF the secretary of the Chamber.
Anyone knowing of a property
starting up or good strike in any
OF the mines can leave his name
with the secretary and member
OF the committee will arrange an
interview. This is something of
vital Importance as the news thus
received will be published broad
cast. The county needs advertis-
ing and publicity and with the
assistance of the mine operators in
supplying information the work
OF the committee will be lessened
and the articles published will be
ab.olutely reliable

The cattle market this week Is

general rule the good fleshy feeders
In territory where corn is raised are
being held on feed and packers are
taking such range steers as carry
any flesh. Two or three big strings
Of Colorado stockers sold yesterday
at $3.50 and $500, medium horned
stockers $S.o5, feeders $3.50, New
Mexico feeders at 81. Good killing
steers, 1000 to 1.2OO-lb, sell at
$3.50 to $3.50, and heavier killing
steers would bring more money, as
packers prefer them to the imma-
ture, hastily prepared short fed
steers, few of which are coming
Range cows bring $3.50 to $3.45,
with exceptional sales up 70 81, and
Gamers $3.50 to $25O. Bulls sell
at $2.25 to IS, calves around SO.
There is a general feeling OF confl-
dence in the cattle market. No
vember receipts are falling consider
ably short Of last November. and
the market has been in a most
healthy state for long time now.
The character OF the sheep and
and lamb offerings is last changing
now. only a few shipments of range
stuff received this week. The supply
is limited and the situation is strong.
although no first class fed stuff has
arrived as yet. Fair to good fed
lambs bring $6.75 to S725, year
ewes $685.. Such feedlngstuff as
are in the range stuff now coming
sells at s5.25 to $500 for lambs,
the sheep at 1915 to $500. Range
lambs suitable for killing sell at
1925 to $40 and some ewes sold
recently at $4.75 to $4.90.

DENVER CHANGES SCHEDULE.
Adds Two More Passenger Trains
and maugurates Special Sunday
Excursion Rates.

In order to satisfactorily accomo-
date les now phenomenal passenger
business. the Fort Worth & Denver
city railway changed its passenger
train schedules on Sunday, Nov. IS,
and at the same time placed in ser
vice two additional daily trains be-
tween Fort Worth and Wichita Falls.
thus affordng Its patrons an excep-
tional service OF four daily trains
in each direction.
These latest additions are number
ed and 6 and their particular mis-
sion will be to maintain quick COM
munication between certain North
Texas territory and numerous points
on connecting lines in Central and
Southern, Western and Eastern por-
tons Of the state; resulting In
saving OF time for travellers which
has hitherto been impossible; also
enabling many patrons to minimize
lay-overs en- route and to avoid the
measure of night travel and late
hours in reaching destinations In all
directions which would be impossible
under other circumstances.
These new trains will leave Fort
Worth at 6;O5 and arrive at Wichita
Falls at 1856 p. m. and win leave
Wichita Falls at 6:15 and arrive at
Fort Worth at 1886 a. M. daily,
these figures admitting Of the MAIN
tainanee of several important com
nections.
In addition to the foregoing. train
No. Z operating between Fort Worth
aud Texline, 45S miles, now leaves
Fort Worth at 9;15 instead Of S.45
p. M. and No. now arrives Fort
Worth at 7;15 instead of 7:45 a. M.
thus making difference Of about
thirty minutes at points intermediates
to Fort Worth aud Texline.
simultaneously with these advant-
ageous changes "Thc Denver has
also taken another step worthy 0e
favorable comment; this being that
it has inaugurated the sale OF haEf
rate Sunday excursion tickets be-
tween all points on its line; the tick
cts being available to all regular star
lions for distances within zoo miles
thereof and the liberality Of the ar
rangement will undoubtedly be sub
stantially appreciated and result In
greatly Increased social travel.

A VISIT TO THE SCHOOLS,

high school. Mr.. Heather delivered
brief, pointed and eloquent ad-

rapt attention and which was deeply
impressive of..the moral maxiins

His speech was an occasion OF one Of
those feasts OK reason nd flows OF
soul that usually cost an admission
fee. Mr.. Heather is the gentleman
whose famous lecture on Cromwell
has been delivered in all tho prin-
clpal cities of the United Stataes.
The corps OF teachers, the organi-
cation of the school and the commo-
dious and modern building all speak
volumns to the effect that the Am
arillo school board is sparihg neither
pains nor money in making our pub
lie school unsurpassed by any in the
state. Professor Wells Is the right
man in the right place, is live to the
most advanced methods belonging to
pedigogics and one only has to visit
the schools 10, feel a pride in tho
footing upon which our schools have
