BRYAN LOSING COTTON.

Mr.. and Mrs. Dock Payne of Payne
Prairie were in the city today and
called on The Eagle. Uncle Dock,
as his friends know him, stated to an
Eagle reporter that Bryan was now
losing cotton from the north end OF
the county and would continue to lose
it until the close of the season, for
the reason there were no wagon yards
or camping facilities here.
This cotton, he said, just belonged
to Bryan and the farmers really
wished to come here, but the distance
was so great it compelled them to
spend the night here, and as there
were no camping places for them
they could not afford to come and pay
hotel bills. Other towns, even nearer
to them than Bryan, offered every ia
cility for camping and they were go
ing there.
Mr.. Payne was sure Bryan would
set every bale of this cotton if it
would only arrange to take care of the
farmers who come here from a dis
lance.

GORCzsKY CASE

The jury in the Gorczysky damage
suit against the Houston & Texas Cen
trail railroad, which had been on trial
all the week in the district court,
failed to agree and was discharged
by Judge Scott at late hour yester-
day afternoon. The case was hard
fought one from beginning to end, the
Plaintiffs being represented by w. C.
Davis and j. G. Minkert and the de
PENDANT company by o. L. Stribling
of Waco and Robert Armstrong of this
city.
The case grew out of the killing of
young Joe Gorczysky by a train on
the defendants road in October. 1909.
He had been to an entertainment and
late at night he and companion were
returning home, and when near tho
home of young, Gorczysky, just south
of A. & NJ college, his companion left
him to go to his home, and Gorczysky
sat down on the railroad track 1t is
presumed he fell asleep and one of
the night passenger trains came thun
dering along and crushed his life out
His relatives filed suit against the
road for damages in the sum of $500.

ADJUSTMENTS
The Man on the Case"

1t was only a medium-sized audi
ence that greeted The Man on the
Case" at the Colonial last night, and
the show proved TO be only fairly
entertaining The people composing
the company got about all out of the
play there is to it. The trouble is,
there was nothing to it.
1t is a hard matter now to book
shows for interior towns and the man
ayers of theaters have to do the best
they can, and it is impossible for each
show to be a high-class attraction.
The management of the Colonial have
some first-class companies booked for
the near future and the people OF
Bryan may expect something good.
