Conway and his wife, Miss Singer and
her fiancee, w. R. Wharthen. The
latter discovered the body upon re-
turning to the fats after he had bat
tered down the door with the help Of
neighbors. The Conways had disap-

The principal business of the line,
and that which would be the greatest
benefit to Bryan, would be the pas
senger business. With the frequent
service afforded by an interurban,
hundreds and hundreds Of people
would be poured into Bryan every day
from up and down the bottom and
intermediate points. They would keep
a constant stream of gold flowing into
the Golfers of Bryan's business houses,
and after all it is the retail trade that
builds cities. With such road BUSH
ness would be good every day in the
year, and Bryan would make such
strides in progress and prosperity as
it has never known before.
With this road built and in opera
ton, Bryan would naturally be the
hub of a system of interurbans that
would radiate from the city like the
spokes Of a wagon wheel. The first
extension should be through Grimes
and on to Huntsville, making a direct
east and west line. BY or before that
time the Southern Traction Com
pany's line, which has already been
announced and is now being built
from Dallas to Corsicana, Mexia,
Bryan, Navasota and on to Houston,
will be completed, and this will give
US direct north and south line. That
would give US four spokes in the
wheel, covering the four cardinal
points of the compass, and the minor
spokes would naturally follow one
after another in rapid succession.
By all means let the interurban be
extended to the bottom, which will
mean that in five years Bryan will be
a city of twenty-five thousand people

YOUTHFUL BANDITS ROB

Robbers Set Fire to Trestle and Did

Muskogee. Okla. Oct. 29.-Three
masked men, little older than boys,
held up and robbed southbound Mis-

at Wirth, Okla. They secured several
thousands dollars from the express
car. The robbery was remarkably
daring.

stopped and dynamited the express
safe, and then escaped into nearby
woods. Posses are in pursuit.

Will the Bryan College Interurban
be Extended to the Brazos Bottom?
Prospects Now Bright for Such Move and the Surrey Being
Made. Other Extensions Moy Follow

There has been a persistent rumor
lately that a survey was being made
from Bryan to Stone City, and in or
der to get the facts an Eagle man
asked Mr.. Hewitt what he knew of it,
and in reply Mr.. Hewitt said:
"The survey is being made under
my direction. ! will say that the out
look for the road being constructed
into the bottom has never been better
than today. ! have been giving al
most all my time for three weeks to
a practical plan to this end. Just now
we can not publish the details, but
Il will lsay that the road will be built
out of Bryan instead of using another
railroad, which / believe is the right
thing to do from Bryan's standpoint"
There is no question of the greater
advantage to Bryan to have this road
run out of this city, and it has al
ways been The Eagles opinion that
it should be an extension OF the inter
urban, and particularly so since 1t has
been determined to electrify the in.
terurban.
The advantages of its being an in
terurban are so apparent that 1t is
absolutely unnecessary to enumerate
them. Aside from transporting the
crops of cotton, cottonseed, corn and
other products from the big Brazos
bottom plantations to Bryan, the next
most important item Is the transpor
tation of passengers to and from the
city. The freight business of the line
will amount to very little, outside OF
supplies for the plantations. and this
can be hauled just as well, and il
anything better, than by steam

When Love Is Blind.

Love is queer thing.
And love is blind in more ways than

also blind in the strange ways in which
it gropes and grasps after what 1t wants

MiIady's Mirror.

In no one thing is the average woman
so careless as in the arrangement of her
hair. 1t is more often merely done up,
rather than arranged. She adopts a style
and wears the same style day after day,
month after month. She makes her hats
mt her mode and never dreams of adapt
ing herself to them The evening and the
morning find her with the same couture
and never a thought that softer Or diff
ferent lines would have helped her entire
costume and appearance either at one
time or another.
1t assuredly does take time to do the
hair. 1t should be curled and trained and
have sun baths and any number of things.
All this most women protest they have
not moment for, but the question is
VITAL Would it not be better to omit
other things rather than the proper care
and arrangement of the hair?
Some consideration should be given to
suitability to the face in couture. but this
does not decree tat a style once found
should indefinitely be held to. If one OBJ
tains becoming gown, does it straight
way signify that forever and at all times
one must never change the fashion of the
hair?
Poor mirrors are a great cause of poor
ly arranged hair, for one looks passably
Well in half lights at any time, and that,
added to the quality of the mirror, often
fails to reveal to woman the faults of
contour and appearance.
Thin faces need soft hair about them
to create soft shades. not shadows, how
ever Gray hair is particularly happy in
effect when it is f1uffed a little. The stiff
rosette style is positively out. and as is
the Partisan mode which closely followed
it, of drawing the hair fiat to the head
form and down about the face, tucking in
the knot and fastening with two large
combs. 1t gave the forlorn and wornout
look to the majority of faces on which 1t
was tried. And. by the way, two of the
long side combs are no longer used; one
is the latest mode.
Sometimes a braid is used just back of
a low pompadour, and the &air is coiled
in the back. This gives a rot11d line to
the face very satisfactory via mSt
features.

Wedgwood and Black Velvet.

A. little girls frock in a pretty wedg-
wood shade Is made with killed skirt and
loose blouse bodice set off with a black
velvet belt and buttons to match In this
case the finishing touch is given by a
sailor collar of white silk. A pretty
party dress is killed in rose-colored silk,
and has a gathered bodice set on to the
skirt under a thick cording of the silk
and finely tucked round the yoke, which
is of cream-tinted lace.
One of the sweetest notions for the &C.
cordian frock is carried out in cream
ninon with a corselet and half-sleeves of
lace hung round with the little borders of
ball fringe for which the fancy still con-
tinues. though this style of trimming does
not. of course, pretend to be new. This
type Of dress, with or without a trail of
flowers or sash of ribbon, is very grace
full and girlish. and it is certain to be a
favOrite one.

AS a last example take an admirable
little frock of fine navy blue serge set in
close peatings from the waist, over
which falls a scarlet corselet made with
a short basque slit up at the sides and
held in position at the waist by a patent
belt pierced with eyelet holes. through
which is threaded a tasseled silk ribbon.
which ties the belt together. The corse-
fine scroll-like design. and the sleeves,
which are of navy blue to match the
skirt, are piped with scarlet and orna-
mented with little scarlet buttons. The
yoke of this frock is of cream spotted net
(Which is matched by the frilling at the
sleeves), with a tucked collar, and at the
foot. where the yoke and corselet meet. a
knotted tie of blue silk spotted with red
and finished off by little tassels.
