Ball Game.

The Paw Paw high school base ball
team went over to Decatur last Satur-

tune of Is to 4. The Paw Paw team
loses several OF its veterans this year and
will probably not be as strong as last
season. The boys are always in the
game, however, and although they are
not making any claims for the pennant
as yet, they are strictly in the race, and
will undoubtedly give a good account Of
themselves as the season progresses.

We doubt that there are many people in Prescott who have stopped to think about what we have here in the way of a steam laundry.
 We took occasion a few days ago to look through our laundry. The manager, MT. Crow, and his clever wife, took pleasure in showing us just how things were done in that establishment. Mr. Crow has over S3, ,000 invested in machinery and work some six or eight persons in there all the time.
 They have two splendid wash CTS and four ironers, and one large mangle machine, which is worth your going to see. It IS used in ironing, what they call
 fiat work, " sheets, pillow cases, counter panes, etc. Prescott should feel proud of this addition to the town and patronize it.
 There is some $1O or $15 worth of laundry sent to other towns every week which should not be done, even if it be a small amount.
 MT. Crow is an enthusiast along his line and believes that in short time that every piece of laundry in Prescott will be done up at his wash shop"

AN INTERESTING LETTER
From 0. R. Mcdaniel While Out In
 Western Texas.
CRowELL, Tex, Aug. 19.

CRowELL, Tex, Aug. 19. To the Picayune:
 As you know, l left Prescott m the evening of 16th for Vest ern Texas.
 This morning finds me in the little town of Crowell, near the hanks of the north fork of Pease river 266 miles west of Fort Worth, 36 miles west of Vernon. From Vernon 1 travelled over land on Uncle Sam's mail hack; this hack leaves Vernon at ' o'clock a. m.; IS miles out it meets Uncle Sans mail hack coming out from Crowell; the drivers transfer mail and pas sengers from one hack to the other and each turn for home. These carriers also are rural car riers. delivering mail at every farm house from Vernon to CrowelI, besides the many stops at houses there are a number of boxes wired to fence posts along the line where there are no houses. 1 can not but speak of the different kinds of boxes some regular approved, some made of parts of nail kegs, tin buckets, tin coffee pots, in fact most anything that could be tied to a barbed wire fence.
 reached Crowell Saturday between four and five o'clock p. m. After registering at the Me- Larty hotel and taking a few swallows of zip water, (washing part of the sand out of my throat) I went to the court house, called for the clerk and was told that he was in jail, pointing out the jail building. l then asked if could see the deputy clerk.
 He is also in jail, " was the re- ply. With a smile, l mean their office is in the jail building).
 After making examination of recrds I found my land interest ? miles west from CroWell. l leave in a day or two to look 1t oyer.
 This is certainly a very fine country, but to us that are not accustomed to the high winds, sand storms and zip water, 1t seems that life would not be worth living, yet there are a great many advantages over our country. l think the people are xild and unreasonable as to the value of land-raW land is from $20 to $60 per acre. How farm CTS can pay this l can not under stand as this is only start to- ward getting it in shape for a living yet at the prices there are people here from every part of the country looking, and a great many buying
