"The Third Race" is one Of the
cleverest sketches seen at the
Washington theater this season. It
is interesting, amusing and brightly
presented and entirely satisfactory
to the audience. Just Kids" is an-
other good little piece, and it is a
happy combination of humor and
pathos. Some good musical stunts
are performed by Dorsch and Rus

and the switchmans tower makes a
novel setting for the act. The bill
as whole is good this week.

more reason for it to suffer with

more reason for it to suffer with
mad tantrums than the child.
When a man has his horse under
his control as he should, he can
prevent all that wear and tear on
the nerves and save the horse the
suffering it endures. Talk about
horse missing a few feeds or a
few drinks of water, but that sort
of suffering doesn't compare to
being 'nagged" from morning till
night by clumsy, careless driver
or irritated by harness or being in
a mad fit for half day at time.
The higher the breeding; the
more high-spirited, alert, proud
horse we develop, the greater be-
comes the necessity for us to rec
OgniZe that the form of cruelty
may be shifted from the outward
and physical to the nerves or a
horse. Dumb Animals.

as the man who uses a club on hi!
low bred horse.
The nagging process is used or
horse that has highly developed
nerves, sensitive skin and hot
blood. Nagging throws the whole
nervous system out of the norma
arouses a sensitive brain and starts
the blood flowing at fever heat.
Such a horse truly is on his nerve.
He uses his nervous energy at a
rapid rate and hence his quick de-
cline. He ages rapidly. Rheu-
matism, stiffened muscles and in
digestion result from such strain
upon the nervous system.
When a horse is kept up to his
highest pitch, with his nerves on a
continual strain, it is nothing less
than torture, and turture of the
worst kind. The more spirited
the horse, the greater becomes the
torture.
Many people allow their horses
to become obstinate and balk or
have some sort of bad tantrum.
This is just about as eXcusable in
a horse as it is in child. | have
seen parents allow their children
to kick, bite and scream in par
oxysm of madness, until the
child quit from pure exhaustion.
No attempt would be made to stop
the child and it would be excused
on the plea of an "ungovernable
or extreme nervous
ness." The fault would not be
the child's but the parents. If
the parents had used good sense
in government one word would
nave stopped the whole affair and
saved The child from the suffering
t endured. The same thing is

Oakwoods, Tex.-George Williams, a
day and instantly killed while attempt
ing to take Allen Tubbs, a negro,
to the peace officers at Oakwoods. In
company with NJ l.. Mccain, an in
innate friend, Williams was convey
ing Tubbs from a farm in buggy to
Oakwoods. When about two miles from
this place Tubbs fell from the buggy
and in falling apparently injured him
self Williams jumped from the vehicle
to his assistance. 1t Is said that Tubbs
grabbed his (Williams) pistol from his
pocket and shot him, the bullet enter
ing the mouth and severing the spin
al column at the base of the brain.
Mccain, who was unarmed, could not
prevent the escape of the negro.
Mccain spread the news of young
Williams death and posse was soon
formed. Tubs was located later N
a negro shanty some two miles from
the scene of the killing. He hid be.
meath the house and declined to surren-
der. Members of the posse were pre-
pairing to make an onslaught and burn
the shack when Tubbs decided to sur
render. He was quickly put aboard an
International G Great Northern train
and conveyed to Palestine for safe
keeping.
When word of the killing spread the
entire community became excited, and
it is safely said that the negro was
removed to Palestine none too soon. He
is an exconvict, 1t is said, and owed
a fine of $40 here, which he was work
Ing out.
The body of young Williams, who
was prominently connected throughout
this section, was brought to Oakwoods
and shipped to Jewett, accompanied by
relatives and friends.
