ballad Of Pleasant rhouahts.


Don't let Us talk of wretchedness,
Don't let us wallow in our woe,
Don't let us drivel DER distress,
Don't let us wander to and fro
Amid the mire and mud below,
But let us rise on joyful wings
Into the golden sunlight's glow;
Let's think and 'alk Of pleasant
things!
Don't let us clamor for redress;
Don't let US deem a soul our foe;
Instead of cursing, let Us bless;
And never let us gloat or crow
Ger some ones trouble; let US
show
What perfect peace our viewpoint
brings
To all who after goodness go;
lets think and talk of pleasant
things!
Let's talk Of trouble less and less;
To anger let us be more slow;
Let's strive more patience to possess,
And more compassionate let's
grow;
A cheerful word or smile bestow,
And you can quell the scorn that
stings;
This duty to ourselves we owe:
Let's think and talk of pleasant
thingsi
ENVOI:
HO, mortal men and women, hoi

Il aught of happiness you'd know
Let's think and talk of pleasant

CAMPBELL REUNION.
Relatives of Residents of This County
jon in Annual Celebration
Near Here.

1t is the custom Of the rCla
tives of the Campbell families
who live in this city and county,
to meet together once Il year and
hold a reunion. This plan origi-
mated eight years ago, and has
each year been successful.
The ninth of these celebrations
was held during the past week
when, for five days, fifty three
of these relatives pitched their
tents on the Palo Duro on the
keiser place about three miles
northwest of town, aud spent
the time in good cid time camp
ing out picnic, eating the fatted
calf and other good things which
were bountifully supplied. The
ground looked as if a small army
were camped there, there being
plenty of tents to accommodate
all, and though there were a few
showers of rain during the time
they were not heavy enough to
mar the happiness of the occa-
sion.
This is novel idea of visiting
one with another without the
trouble incident to having com
pany come" and The News man

Good Wheat Returns.

In conversation with The News
reporter yesterday morning Rev.
John a. Wallace of this city, who
owns 300 acres of land east of
town, stated that he had wheat
on his place that was planted on
the thinnest land that he had,
the best land having been resery-
ed for alfalfa, and that the wheat
after paying all expenses in
Guiding breaking, planting, bind
ing, stacking, and thrashing,
having paid for all the work done
in connection with the growing
of the crop and the crop, had net
ted him ten dollars per acre.
Not bad returns for land at the
price, are they?

NEW BRICK BLOCK.
The HutsOn Lots on the Northwest
Corner Of the Square to Be
Improved at Once.

There is to be something neat
in the way of a business block to
be built as soon as possible, on
the northwest corner of the
square on the Hutson lots.
The First National Bank has
been contemplating building on
the corner lot, but the sale of
their bank building to W. W.
Keith this week has brought them
to a speedy decision and things
will be hurried as much as pos
sible in order to get the new To-
cation finished at the earliest
possible date.
President Lester, of the bank,
in conversation with The News
reporter, stated that plans had
not been adopted on account of
the recent decision to build but
that the building would be built
as soon as plans and Specitica-
tions can be had. He also stated
that the building would be strict
ly modern in every particular
with pressed brick front and
would be an ornament to large
city.
The exact size has not been de.
termined, but it will cover the
full sixty feet on the square and
possibly run back the full l2O
feet on Houston street. The
corner building will be used as a
home for the bank while the
next building will be used for
mercantile purposes. 1t is said
that it is already leased for a
term of years.
This would come as an added
addition to that portion of the
square and if other reports are
correct we expect many other
buildings to be erected within
the next few months.

visiting, however. There were
games and sports until every
one was tired. The baseball
games proved to be the most in
tercsting according to reports of
witnesses. The national rule as
to nine innings was abolished
and the game only ended when
supper was announced, at which
time the team having the largest
score was the winner. The in
formant of The News does not
state whether the nine inning
rule was abolished because they
could not play nine innings
in one afternoon or not.
f. W. Reynolds issued a chal-
lenge for himself and his boys to
play the picked team of the re-
mainder of the relatives, but this
was not accepted, we presume
for fear that it might create a
family fued. BY the way, re-
ports say that R. a. Campbell
makes Il cracker-jack umpire.
The following is a list of those
attending Mrs. Augusta Nc
