MARsHALL's SIDEWALK RECORD
City Secured More for Money Than
Was Originally Estimated.

Marshall. Texas. Sept. This
city can boast of having as many If
not more miles of sidewalk than any
city within the state of Texas in the
next 80 days, and already there is
constructed nearly 80 miles of con.
crete sidewalk which is from four to
six feet wide and from four to six
inches thick, and all street crossing
put in to connect with the sidewalks,
and when the work in completed
there will be in all about SO miles of
concrete walk. or about IL miles more
than was thought the 100000 would
build when the construction was com.
menced This is quite a record and
doubtless one of the few instances
where money went further than was
originally intended, which speaks
volumes for the city administration

The notion that anybody can farm
without learning how is as absurd as
that any blockhead can practice law

study to prepare him for it. Scientific
farming is a fine art and its rewards

CHINESE WRITER
ARRAIGNS AMERICAN
MISSIONARIES IN CHINA

A scathing arraignment of American
missionaries in China is made by
high class Chinese writer in the Amer
lean Journal of Sociology. According
to this authority, China would be mucn
better off if the preachers from this
country stayed at home. He says that
his people already have religion thaa
is much better adapted to their needs
than that which the American mission
aries bring and that the latter will not
gain the converts they desire unil they
learn to live the religion they try to
teach. He points out that the China
man from his infancy is taught to
live his religion, and put IN practice
the precepts he learns as part OF ms
education, while the Americans who g"
as teachers of the Christian religion
he says fail miserably in acting up to
the principles they teach.

The circumstances of the crime fos
which the Indian was yesterday sen

his wife in the house of neighbor

deed he made his escape, but was snort
Iy afterwards located by means OF :
circular sent out by Sheriff Lamb at

CLEVER CAPTURE EFFECTED
BY DEPUTY SHERIFF MULLER
Not Deceived by Fugitive g Claim that
He was Prominent Mining Pro-
moter Named Newcome

Thursday Deputy Sheriff Muller re-
ceived Telegram from Chief Burke, OF
Reno, asking him to look out for man
named G. A. Rogers, wanted in that
city for passing worthless checks oil
business men. Deputy Muller at once
instituted search of all east bound
trains, and yesterday afternoon, in a
Pullman on No. 6, discovered man
who answered the description of the
wanted individual. Upon stating
his business to the party, the suspect
became very indignant, claiming that
he was well known mining promoter
named Newcome, and in support of his
assertion produced a document signed
by two purchasers and himself as seller,
in which they agreed, on or before Oc-
tober 30, to pay Newcome 100000 for
a group of claims. While duly i'm
pressed with the magnitude of the deal,
Deputy Muller concluded that it was
easier for man to change his name
than his description, so he took him
from the train and locked him up.
Sheriff Ferrel was at once commnni-
Gated with, and came down on No.
at an early hour this morning. He
readily identified the man as the one
wanted, and took him to Reno on
No. 5.
An account of Rogers misdeeds was
published in the Reno papers several
days ago, and since that time Charlie
Rogers, with 4. Reinhart Il Co., whose
initials are also q. A., has been receiv-
