The courthouse bonds, fifty
three thousand dollars, are being
printed and will be forthcoming
in a few days. The architect, h.
G. KirSch, writes from st. Louis
that the plans are completed and
that he will be here with them
sometime next week.
The bonds are dated Feb. II,
1908, and provide for t per cent
from that time.
The only difficulty in the way
of getting down to business in
the way of building is the pres
ent market price for bonds of
this class. Eight months ago
such bonds could have been sold
at a premium Of 3 per cent; now
the market quotations are about
93 cents, making difference in
price of 10 per cent. The pres

hold for par and this may be Sc
cured, it is thought, from some
Texas counties having school
funds for investment.

Beaten Up ard His Money Taken.

4 man from a railroad camp
near Amarillo claims to have been
beat up and robbed at the bridge
or rather under the bridge on
the Palo Duro Wednesday night
Of last week. The next morning
the evidences of the beating were
clear enough and he said his
money, some forty dollars in cur
rency, was taken from him at the
point Of a gun, four men olliciat-
ing at each performance. He
was considerably under the in
nuence of liquor preceding his
troubles, being seen at the depot
by Sheriff Slower in this condi-
ton and also with the money in
question as he, Slower, was board
ing the train for TeXico. Our
sheriff says that he expected
the city marshal. who was pres
ent, to take him in charge but for
some reason this was not done
and the man wandered off to the
bridge with the result stated.
His name was J.R. Singleton and
he was an old Confederate, they
say. He thinks that some ANA
rillo men. who followed him down
here, got his money. He return
ed TO that place on the 10th.
