The Sections Orders.

The late Bishop Seymour of Illinois
was remarkable for the power and
beauty of his sermons. A Springfield
man said to him the other day:
AT the eastern celebration In one
of our churches Bishop Seymour and
a half-dozen other divines were pres
ent.
One of these divines. a stern, state
ly old fellow with white hair told
Bishop Seymour in my hearing that
whenever any one went to sleep in his
church the sexton had orders to wake
the man up.
Bishop Seymour smiled.
Wouldn't 1t be better he said
when any one goes to sleep under
your preaching for the sexton to have
orders to come and wake you up?"

MexIcANs IN TEXAS SCHOOLS.
Children Of Wealthy Families Edueat
ed In San Antonio.


Ten carloads of school children from
Mexico have arrived In this city since
the influx began about two weeks ago,
says the San Antonio Express.
Scores Of them were accompanied
by their parents. and the hotels Of the
city have been indebted, in no small
degree, to this class of visitors for the
brisk conditions which have been ex-
Iperienced by them during the last sew
|eral weeks.
Many of the children travelled from
their distant homes alone or in pairs
Ior trios, while it was no uncommon
sight to see parties of nine or ten
from the same localities across the
Rio Grande at the various hotels.
Nearly all the school equipment and
wearing apparel for the entire year are
purchased for these children here in
San Antonio before they enter their
respective schools, and the CONNER
lcial Importance of their annual visit
can easily be imagined.
Their parents, too, before returning
home, spend several days in the city,
purchasing large quantities of Ameri-
can goods TO take back with them to
Mexico. and as the majority of them
ARE persons of great wealth and social
position at home, their expenditures
amount to thousands of dollars.
/ or all the children from Mexico who
are educated in the United States the
schools of San Antonio secure over
10 per cent. Not only on account of
the proximity of the city to the Dor
der, but also because of The general
excellence of the schools and the
healthiul climate and surroundings'eX-
periencei here. San Antonio has al
ways been the favorite place with the
Mexicans for their children to obtain
an English education.

Notes From Ellda.

Elida, N, NJ, Jan, 15.--The great
influx OF people into this section OF
New Mexico Is indeed amazing and
those now coming bring something
Of hard cash with them.
Two new business houses are
now under course of construction
and a number of residences will
soon be completed A new one Is
begun most every day in town and
many in the country.
The recent rains have been
abundant and wheat is looking
fine.
The Farmers Savings bank, at
the end Of six months business,
declared dividend OF per cent
and a OF reserve fund. This is In
decd splendid showing considering
the fact that Ellda has two strong
banks.

You mink you carry weight
Enough TO crush you to IN earth.
qAnd curse the cruel fate
That puts the heavy load on you
While other men go freq
OF all the burdens that YOU bear
AS far as you can see,
You think because a man is rich
And does not lug a nod
That he has nothing else 10 do
But live and loaf and nod,
And wear fine clothes and eat fine
food.
And whoop 1t up for fair
Well, you don't know iittlo nit
About rich mans care
Look at the wrinkles in hla face.
And note those tired eyea,
And soc him turn away from food
That you would think a prize;
And SEQ tho marks Of age on youth,
The gray hair on Ids head--
You lay your burden down at night
He carries his to bed.
Say, growler, would you like to
sleep
With that hard bod of yours,
And have It scrape you down the
back
And spoil your soothing snores?
And give you dreams to make the
night
A Indebtedness that brought
You to your work again,
An old man oyerwroughtt
Your load Is heavy, none denies;
Your days are hard and long,
And labor in excess, no doubt,
Seems little short of wrong;
But wealth is not crue for that,
Whatever 1t may dor
Thank God you do not have to take
Your hod to bed with you.

Small Number Have Obtained Their
Receipts 1907.
Potter County voters have been
very slow so far in paying their
poll taxes for 1907. Precinct No. 5
heads the list, but only seventy-four
have registered in that precinct.
That precinct includes Amarillo
west of Taylor street No. 4 which
takes in Amarillo east of Taylor
has registered seventy-two votes so
recorded hardly any. Number 8
has three; Number Q has the same,
and Number 4 has registered only
1. There are two weeks yet in
which pool taxes may be paid and
there will probably be a rush on
the last days. Failure to pay with
in the time set forfeits the voters
right OF suffrage, however, and the
receipts cannot be ISSUED on the
payment OF penalty, as is the case
with other taxes.
