Dallas. Texas. March 10.-Three i'm
portant local option county elections

These pending local option cleo
tons were brought on at this time by
the ants. who believe this to be the
best time for their SIDE. They had
the elections brought on in the three
counties on the same date in order
to scatter the local option speakers;
that is. divide our strength But we
expect to win in all three counties.
Notwithstanding these sharp practices
Of our enemies.
we will surely have a local option
election in DALLAS county this year,
and feel confident of winning. The
election will probably be held in Sep
TENDER. We do not desire to hold it
until after all the party primary cleo
tons have been held. These occur in
July and August After that the local
option election can be neld and not
clash in any way with politics. We
expect to vote the saloons out of bust

CRAY SQUIRREL BABIES.
Naturalist Tells Of Their Appearance
When Born and Month Of
Nativity

It's a dull day now when the
nature folks don't get into new
sauabble of some sort, Just at
present the readers of Suburban
Life are torn up over the ques-
ton of gray squirrels.
Says Edward Howe Forbush:
"The gray squirrel brings forth
its young usually, think, in
May, but often has another
brood late in August or early in
September"
This sounds all right to the un-
natuled person, but not so to 5.
II. French, who says: "From my
experience in raising gray squir-
rels | can say that usually they
are born in February and March,
although | have had some litters
as late as July. In fact, at this
writing, on March 10, | have a
nest of little ones that were
probably born two or three days
ago. The young squirrels resem-
bic young rats and when born
are about as large as a small
peanut.
"They are, of course, entirely
devoid of hair and we do not no
tice any indications in that di-
rectiOn until they are three or
four weeks old. Their eyes are
not open until the age of six
weeks; from that time on they
seem to develop quite rapidly.
but seldom leave the nest until
they are from ten weeks to three
months of age.
"At that time they become
quite playful, a good deal after
the manner of kittens, especially
when everything is very still
where they are located. They are
naturally very shy, and it is diff
ficult to handle them with any
degree of comfort, as they
squirm and fight to free them
selves"

SAND DUNES SPREAD RUIN.
Bury Villages and shoal Sounds on
Hatteras-Advance Proves
Irresistible.

The prevailing winds from a
little west of south have rippled
the Heterogeneous sands on Hat
teras just south of the cape, on
Shackelford at its southwest ex-
trenity, and on the southwest
side of Smiths island. These
wind ripples started in sands ex-
posed by the removal of a strip
of forest next the shore, and
have grown in size to great sand
waves, which are advancing on
forests, fields and homes. AS
the sand wave has advanced it
has taken up several feet of the
loose soil over which it has
passed, undermining houses, lay
ing bare the roots of trees and
exposing the bones of the dead
in the cemeteries.
Diurnal winds from the sea
have piled the sands into small
wandering dunes and hillocks,
and even sometimes into sand
waves, which are marching
steadily inward and shoaling the
waters of the sounds. At Nays
Head large hotel, constituting
a solid obstruction, soon had a
sand wave built mp a short dis.
lance in it's rear until the level
of its roof was reached, when
the wave moved forward and en-
quilted the hotel. In the imme-
date neighbOrhOod two cottages
suffered similar fate. Here the
land gained on the sound $50
feet in ten years.
On the northern end of Hat
teras island a fishing village had
been similarly buried, while the
sand had entirely crossed the is
land at several places north Of
the cape. This movement of the
sand was started just after the
civil war by the cutting of trees
next the shore for ship timbers,
and the section is still known as
the Great Woods, though not a
stick of timber stands upon it
today -PamlicO sound for two
miles from the Hatteras shore
is growing. steadily shallOwer
from the deposit of blown sand.
On Smiths island a pilots vii.
lage has been buried beneath the
sand wave for number of years,
but this has been quite recently
resurgected and its houses are
again occupied. On Currituck,
below Caffey's inlet life saving
station, the sand has advanced
entirely across the land, and one
man, moving before the advanc-
ing sand, has at last built his
house on piles in the sound

instance, demonstrating how the
best laid plans of men and mice
oft miscarry:
when | got home this morn

he remarked, IL almost dreaded
to look at the hall table, upon
which my wife always leaves a
note when there is an urgent
call. | was naturally delighted
to find that | did not have an
other call to make, and at once
hurried to my bedroom, and,
without lighting the gas, I'm.
dressed in the dark and tumbled
into bed.
"My head touched something
on the pillow. lighted the gas
to investigate, and found that
my thoughtful wife had pinned
there a note, so that | should not
fail to see it, informing me that
l was wanted at once without
fail to call on a distant patient
as soon as ! arrived home, no
matter at what hour"
