ing efforts, succeeded in subdu
ing the flames which were
threatning the entire business
portion of the town. and but for
the heroic efforts of the Mechan-
les Fire Company and these other
citizens, would have wrought al
most irreparable damage to other
property, and,
Whereas, We appreciate the
efforts of these good people and
the unselfish and untiring efforts
made by them so successfully,
therefore be it
Resolved by the Mayor and
City Council of Jefferson that
a vote of our sincere thanks
and profound appreciation be
and the same is hereby rendered
ty the gallant men comprising
the said Mechanics Fire Com
pany and other citizens for their
noble efforts upon this occasion.
Resolved further, That it is
the sense of this board, that
with such fire company and
such citizenship, Jefferson
should indeed resume the proud
position which it once occupied
among the leading cities of the
State.
Resolved further. That a
copy Of these resolutions be fur
nished to the Jimplecute for pub
LEGATION.
BY order of the City Council.

Walking to the Confederate Reunion
at Macon, Ga.

One of the novel features of
the Confederate Reunion soon to
convene at Macon, Georgia, Of an
individual character, is the trip
being made 'afoot by that com
mendable old veteran }. G. Will
hams, from his home at Lewis
Vile Denton county. In his cal
culations he estimated that an av-
erage of 20 miles a day would
land" him in the convention city
on the suspicious morning pry-
or to calling the clans to order
and give him few days per-
haps, to LAY over" for bad weat-
her, and also to spend with for
mer old neighbors and relatives
on his line of march" through
Mississippi-and thus kill two
birds with one missed. However,
he is determined to arrive on
time at his destinatiOn-even If
it takes all summer, as it were.
He arrived here 1880 Thursday
evening, after our last issue was
out. An estimate showed that
he had covered just 200 miles
and he seemed as fresh and
vigorous and ambitious as one
catering to great cause would
appear. He is encumbered only
with knansack whichhe carries
in regulation style, enclosing a
few light garments and sometims
a ration or two 10 tide him over
possible desolate sections he may
encounter. He is wearing pair
Of Star" brand shoes, which,
after a 200 mile service bid fair
to hold good to the end of the
the eventful journey-and that is
wearing some-and destined to
make record to put the Star
shoe in the forefront of all makes.
Mr.. Williams carries the air and
bears the marks Of a veteran, and
he is proud of his Confederate
record, and loves to testify to
the brilliancy Of its arms and UNI
faltering devotion to the cause it
maintained to the end---w with such
Spartan courage and heroic en-
durence.

There are approximately 1000
high schools in Texas, if we in
clude all schools that give any
of the high school subjects. Out
of these 1000 schools, $50 are
affiliated with the State Univer-
sity, but only % prepare their
student for entrance to the Uni
versity without conditions.
The High School Society will
give an open session, Friday
evening, March -. No admis-
sion will be charged and every
one is cordially invited to attend.
This Society should receive the
encouragement of all who are in
terested in the public school.
Too little attention is usually
given to debating and and other
forms of literary work which
necessitates logical thinking and
ready expression-too many pu
pupils lack the ability to think
on their feet.
Last Thursday, Hbn. II. ID.
Rowell gave the second of a
series of lectures on civics be-
fore the high school. The first
lecture dealt with the Legisla-
ture, its powers and duties. Mr..
Rowell being a member of this
body could speak from expert.
ence. The last speech was upon
the judiciary. These talks have
been very interesting and in.
structive to teachers and pupils.
The third lecture will be upon
the Executive Department of the
government, 1t would be very
helpful to the school if other pro

give lectures on topics Of inter

Hall mill and elevator at Amsterdam

in the race for representative but has
decided to give it up as the new posi-
ton will have good salary. Many Of

from the political field as he is one of
