A press notice says:

People who are interested in arts
and crafts will be delighted with the
beautiful candle-sticks and candelbras
used in the production of THE House
of a Thousand Candles" the original
Chicago and New York production OF
which will be seen at the Temple
Theatre on Wednesday, November 16.
The management have had collect
ors all over Europe and America
securing peculiar pieces of this craft
and many of the designs are extreme
ly unique, while several are very val
liable as having been used in the
households of famous personages of
long ago.
So valuable is this set of proper
ties that Mr. Gaskell has had a special
safe made to hold them. 1t is the
intention of Mr. Gaskell to ultimately
present the collection to the Field
Museum of Chicago, as it is probably
one of the most unique collections OF
this type ever gathered.

The Nacogdoches Sentinel charges
that Anderson county made failure
of its tobacco crop this year. A more
correct way Of putting it would be to
say that Anderson county attempted
no tobacco CROP The men-.who
raised the fine tobacco in this county
for several years had difficulty in
disposing of the crop after it was
made, and this being county of won

THE" BEER JOINT LAW OBSERVED ANNIVERSARY
Provided Through Amended Charter
Goes Into Effect Nov. 18-Some
Evasions Threatened.

The new law provided for the regu-
lation of the sale of beer, whiskey
and other intoxicants in Palestine, in
which such sales are restricted to the
business district, and which law was
provided through an amendment to
the city charter, passed at the last
session of the Texas legislature, goes
into effect on the 18th inst, and all
such places located in residence and
outlying districts of the city will have
to close shop.
However, plans are being laid by
one or two to evade or get around the
law, so the Herald is informed And
this plan is to move just over the
corporate line in the western part of
the city, in what is known as the
free zone" a strip of land in this
precinct, which is a wet precinct. The
city has no control over the precinct
outside the city limits. However,
there is a plan brewing to do away
with this difficulty, and to do away
with these joints that may open up
in "the west end" One plan is to
take this strip into the corporation;
the other plan involves another pro,
| hibition election in which the effort
is to be made to place the whole city
under prohibition, wiping out all
saloons, joints, ETC., in the city. Some
citizens, heretofore ants, say they are
ready to vote it dry whenever these
joints show disposition 20 remain
open in the west end So there is a
grave danger of those interested in
these joints precipitating a prohibition
election for the city.
