Three New Concrete Houses.

The talk about the building of
three concrete business houses
mentioned in last weeks News,
has materialized. They are to be
erected, beginning on the south
corner of the west side of the pub
lie square and running three lots
north; are to be two.stories high
and the work is to begin as soon as
plans and material can be acquired.
J. F. Smith will put up two, begin
ming on the corner, and w. T.
Moreland the other.
If present designs as to material
be carried out these buildings will
be constructed of concrete blocks
made right here in town and the
making of these blocks is expected
to be on in earnest ere the present
month closes.
This is move decidedly along
progressive lines; it means stability
and not only shows faith in the
towns business future on the part
of the enterpriSing citizens who
have the matter in hand, but it
will beget confidence and faith IN
others who come to view the pros
poets here 1t will have this effect
not only as to the town itself but
to the surrounding country.
Actions of this character in any
country, and especially a new one
like ours, speak much louder than
words and not only the men who
build but the whole country VIII
reap the benefits which are sure to
follow.

many of US are interested and
that is, what is the quickest
way Of getting rid of trouble

exaggerated claims, or to pin
your faith to Chamberlain S

that has won a world wide rep

NO INCORPORATION.

The election which was held in
this city on Tuesday of this week
for the purpose of Incorporating
Hereford resulted in the measures
being defeated by vote of So to
IT. This means that Hereford will
not be permitted to put on city airs
for sometime to come; but since the
majority have thus decided, the
minority must good-naturedly re-
sign themselves to the situation
and await patiently for the time
when their fond hopes may be
realized. -Hereford Brand.
Small vote that, Bro. Ray, in a
town of the enterprise Hereford ex-
hiblts to outsiders on other matters,
and on such an important question
as incorporation. 1t shows apathy
too, of a decided character or Here
ford has not the population claimed
for her.
The sanitary conditions in Here
ford are in fully as bad shape as
here, if not worse, and incorpora-
ton, giving organized regulation,
is the only remedy SO far as The
News kens. But as the Brand
gracefully states, all good citizens
should "good-naturedly re 81 g n
themselves" to the legally ex-
pressed will of the majority.

the hostess detecting a pi(e)ous
craving among the young ladies',
invited them into the dining room
where a pie course with Adams
ale was served; but this pleasant
feature of the entertainment was
suddenly interrupted in most UNI
expected manner by the arrival of
the young men (who by.the-way
had been cleft in town." by the
fair daughters), and for awhile there
was scramble(d (for) pie, and
famine threatened-but the hostess
had considerably saved some pie
for the tardy guests, and one
specially coacocted by Miss -
ia splendid cook), and so very ap-
petising and attractive to look upon,
that it was quite irresistible, and

TOO HUMBLE A HUSBAND.
Position OF Prince Albert, Royal
Consort OF Queen Victoria.


a woman loo:;cA up With laugh
from heavy volume she was reading.
"Now ! know, she said, why Queen
| Victoria was 80 fond Of the prince con-
sort. This husband did not merely re-
gard his wife II; his equal; he regarded
her as UNNECESSARILY his superior, say
! ing that it wa: his duty to sink his
own individual existence in her. Lis
ten to this Letter that Prince Albert
wrote to the Dul:c Of Wellington. Here
is a champion cf woTan's rights in
deed. Don't you think, though, it IS
going too far for man to humble
himself so low as this?"
She then read from her book in a
sarcastic voice:
My Dear Duke-In the question whether
| it is advisable that 7 should take the
command of the army have come to the
| conclusion that my decision ought entire
| ly to be guided BY the consideration
whether It would interfere with or assist
| my position Of consort to the sovereign.
| This position IS most peculiar and deli
cate one. While a female sovereign has
| a great many disadvantages in comparl-
son with king, yet If she IS married and
| her husband understands and does his
| duty her position, on the other hand, has
| many compensatory advantages and IN
I the long run Will be found to be stronger
! even than that Of the male sovereign.
/ But this requires that the husband should
| entirely sink his own individual existence
| In that Of his wife and that he should aim
| at no power by himself or for himself,
being content to be the husband Of the
| queen, the private secretary Of the SOW
ereign and the tutor Of the royal chill
