What Makes Holes in Cheese.

From Washington comes report
that Uncle Sam wants to know what
makes holes in cheese?
What is whiskey? What is beer !?
Is hen bird? Is it lucky to have
your money in the hands Of trust
company Are the depositors in
bank labeled national" safeguarded
by the government? These and other
deep problems over which the govern
ment's learned scientists and lawyers
have studied, argued and almost fought,
are to be laid aside. temporarily at
least, for research into the causes Of
the little winding tunnels that penetrate
a cheese.
The holes in cheese, say the men of
science, are dollars and cents to the
merchant, for they Indicate grade
and value. So they propose to fathom
the hows and wherefores, Likewise,
the holes being made in the cheese" of
the creditors Of defunct bank mean
dollars and cents to q certain few, hat
they are not to be classed as merchants.
Carbon dioxide. nitrogen, hydrogen,
and some of the inns of chemistry and
finance have TO do with making Of the
holes, and it is hoped that the experts
with their retorts and blow pipes will
find way to plug all tunnels IN all
kinds of cheese.

Remarkable Railroad Wreck.

The fast mail on the Illinois Central
was derailed last Friday morning about
three-fourths of a mile east of Apple
River while running on an upgrade at
speed of about sixty miles an hour.
The train consisted of steel mail car,
a baggage car and two coaches The
train came to stop with the pilot
wheels of the engine on the track.
Every other wheel of the entire train
was off the track, the rails torn loose
and ties cut and jammed, but not car
was upset, not coupling broken and
not person hurt. 1t was considered
that the steel mail car saved the train
from general smashup. Warren Sen.

One Thousand and Twenty-Five.


1t is understood there are about one
thousand and twenty-five creditors of
that notorious First National Bank of
Mineral Point, every one of whom en-
joys the reputation of being good,
peacable American citizen. A full-count
company amply strong if marshalled to
remove any barrier to their rights, and
without violating any code Of justice.
All that's necessary is for Uncle Sam
to provide the ammunition by the fore
ing of an early settlement.
BY the way, what has become of the
fellow who closed the bank, and who
only few hours before directed the
receiving of deposits and the issuing Of
drafts which he could but know would
be protested, if he knew anything
And why should he be allowed fat
sum for expert there insert the word
graft for expertl testimony, the same
being grabbed from the already de-
pleted funds Of the creditors, which he
aided in depicting by methods already
cited Where is he
If it is not up to Uncle Sam to make
good the shortcomings and blunders,
willful or otherwise, Of his employees,
why Is Il for the common citizen?
Somebody please send this to Wash
ington. Copies only cents each.

An ELEGANT OPENING
Mr.. Joe Groginsky Formally Opened
His New Place Yesterday After
noon with Elegant Lueheon.

It had been the purpose Of Mr.. Joe
Groginsky to have a formal opening
Of his new place of business since he
moved into same several days ago,
but bad weather and other causes pre-.
vented his doing so until yesterday.
However, the delay did not detract
from the elegance of the occasion, nor
its pleasure, but only afforded more
time for preparation for his guests
and the addition of many things that
contributed to their enjoyment.
AS all the people of the city know,
the Smith building in which Mr.. Gro
ginsky has been located since sue
ceeding to the business of the late
j. L. Hearne, has recently been over
hauled and enlarged, and the addition
on the east end of the building vas
designed and constructed especially
for Mr.. Groginsky's business. No ex-
pense was spared to make it just as
elegant as the builders art could
make it, and the success attained is
attested by all who have seen it.
There is not prettier place in Texas,
and with it's tiled floor, steel ceiling,
beautiful decorations and elegant fix
lures, it stands forth complete in ev.
cry detail
The formal opening yesterday after
noon at 4:30 o'clock was reception
and luncheon rendered by Mr. Gro
ginsky to his friends and a very large
number was present. The menu and
service we're perfect in all their ap
pointments, and absolutely nothing
was left undone that could in any
way add to the pleasure of the guests.
A very large crowd was present and
to state that each and every one thor
oughly enjoyed himself would be but
a mild statement of the case. Mr.. Gro
ginsky was ably assisted by his clerk,
Mr.. Matt Vitopil, and together they
saw to it that each guest was shown
every attention and courtesy.
