We have good news coming to cheer you up
that can only be given you under doors.
Many theories have been advanced as To
what would be the best plans Of getting your
cotton directly To the spinner upon the cheap

have been shown to be theories only. and
ha We offered no practical solutions OF the

Fseled into the belief that II was absolutely

are convinced tina every bale OF cotton carries
within itself sufficient currency or capital to

1.-The meeting at the Christian
church closed Monday night, the
only additions being three by state
ment. The preaching was good,
the music and singing fine, and the
attendance at most services above
the average, but the interest was
not there. The fact is, meetings
in the Panhandle this year have not
been as successful in winning souls
to the cause OF the Master IS could
have been desired. 1t may take
visitation of boil weevil or a drouth
to bring the people TO full real-

prosperous financially they seem to
forget their spiritual needs. "

The Daily Panhandle

The News notes with sincere
regret that the Daily Panhandle,
a truly meritorious daily news
paper and the only one worthy
Of the name that the Panhandle
ever had, is considering suspen-
sion on account OF the lack of
advertising patronage.
Amarillo with her present
size and abundant prosperity
and her very lively prospect for
as much again or even more can
well afford to give liberal sup
port to such a newspaper as the
Daily Panhandle has proven it
self 10 De and failing to grasp
this opportunity, as she seems
about to do, the loss, while hea-
Wy on the publishers of the
Daily Panhandle will fall with
far more disastrous effect upon
herself, The management Of
the paper puts it up TO Amarillo
in these words:
at is readily admitted by
men who observe and know
things when they see them that
at this time there is not an indi-
vidual enterprise which can do
more for Amarillo and the sur
rounding country than first
class daily newspaper. There
are those, of course, who can
see nothing except dollars in
hand, but life is too short TO
waste time on such cattle.
Some happy day they will pass
on to other realms and others
will have the pleasure to live in
luxury upon their boarded shek-
els"
"As stated heretofore, and
with absolute truth, the issuing
Of daily newspaper is an ex-
pensive business. Hitherto the
receipts of the Daily Panhandle
have failed to meet the expendi-
lures by 5000 per week. We are
willing to bear the loss for
reasonable length OF time but
not indefinitely or always. I'm
less the business men of ANA
rillo, as d whole show their APP
probation of our efforts by more
liberal advertising the Daily
Panhandle will be discontin-
ued."
The evidence all points TO the
fact that Amarillo is to sustain
her reputation as a newspaper
rdVeydro. One daily paper,
The Tribune, died a few days
ago and now the best one she
ever had and in all proba bility
ever will have serves notice of
demise unless well earned and
well deserved support be given.
Unless all signs tail the Daily
Panhandle will have to go and
while Amarillo, as previously |
stated will be the greatest loser
the whole Plains country will
suffer thereby and the blame
should be placed where it right
ly belongs-on the shortsighted
business men of Amarillo.

McEwen Again Tonight.

The Great McEWen again
demonstrated his right to the
title last night. At the other
performances he has given ex-
hibitions Of magic and ypno-
tism, and last night he added
several experiments in telepathy.
Telepathy with him is mind
reading. For instance, he allow
ed a pin to be hid in any part Of
the room, and then taking hold
by the hand Of the man who had
hid it, rushed without hesitation
to the hidden pin. This was the
simplest one Of his experiments
the others being far harder and
more complicated.
McEwen also did his great
feat Of suspending a woman in
mid-air with no apparent means
of support, raising and lowering
her at command. This is per-
haps the most mystifying of all
his exhibitions, and as he uses
no black background or dazzling
lights, it is really a greater trick,
as performed b. him. than as
once performed by the Great
Herman and now by Keller.
The Great McEwen will give
one more performance at the
opera house tonight, and a com
plete change of program has
BEEN announced. It is worth
seeing and those who have not
attended should surely tonight.
