second time in one day the lectur-
ers talked 10 a big crowd Of scurry
county citizens.
Those people will 90 off of their
tour with the correct impression
that scurry county has more wide
awake, progressive farmers and bus
mess people than any other county
along the line Of the Santa re Cut
off. Our people are studying all the
departments Of diversified farming
and many of the suggestions learn
ed from the lectures and from the
literature distributed will be put
TO practical use and in few years
one may notice vast strides Of inn
proyement in methods and good re-
suits will be noticeable in all the
farm where It Is done.
The Santa Fe people are inter-
ested in the development Of the
country along their line to the end
that the people may be more pros
porous and the railroad will han
die greater volumes OF business.
The Santa Fe Cutoff will be the
main line from California TO the
Gulf Coast and in course of time
the people living along this nne
will realize the advantages to be
had here that will not be at hand in
other sections. That road will be
worth vastly more TO snyder than
many people seem TO think. BY rea-
son of location on this line Snyder
is in direct touch with all the cities
and ports of the country, and Sny-
der will be put down as one Of the
very best towns on the line

Fort Worth Preacher Accused Of

Another chapter has been written
In connection with Rev. j r. Norris

they in a measure broke up the
haunts OF vice.
Later It is charged there has come
about just as hard a state of affairs
where evil doers have defied the law
A large element of the people set to
work to stop It, but they failed to
get the support OF the mayor. They
went to the city papers and were
turned down. They established
local paper and have published some
red hot matter These writings so
incensed the mayor that he called a
mass meeting and delivered an ad-
dress that was not fit to print. Dr.
Norris, the pastor of the Baptist
church was considered to be one Of
the principal writer's of this reform
paper In course of time DR.. Nor
ris and one OF his deacons received
anonymous letters threatening
harm to them an6 to their church
property
Later on DR. Norris was shot at
one night while seated I'm his library
and his residence was set on ere
and his church was burned.
On last Friday night his residence
was again fred and he and his fam
lily had barely time to get out. That
is not ALL Some while ago Dr. Nor
ris appeared before a grand jury
and stated uLon oath that ho did
not know who wrote the threat

Americans 20 Get Out

Washington, March Admitting
that Mexico's crisis has approached,
Uncle Sam took two unprecedented
steps
Advised that Americans in the
Revolution ridden zone to withdraw
at once.
Warned Americans within the iur
isdiction of the United States strict
ly TO observe the neutrality laws.
Plainly speaking these two acts
constitute recognition that the rev.
olutions in Mexico are beyond the
control of Madero and reaffirm the
American attitude that Intervention
must be averted.
Americans are urged to leave sec
tions of Mexico where they are now

Sam does not want to be forced into
declaration OF war with Mexico by
injuries TO our citizens.
The adyices to Americans in Mex
leo to flee from danger zones con

retary of State Wilson.
That under the word advise the

WILLIAMS HOMESTEAD ENTERED
BY BURGLAR AND MONEY
TAKEN AWAY.

The police and detective depart

glar who early yesterday morning en-
tered the residence of Rufus c. Will
liams. 900 Floyd avenue. and carried
off handbag belonging to Mrs. Will
liams, containing SIS in cash.
Mrs. williams stated 20 the police
that she was awakened shortly after
midnight to find she had been xag-
ged. and that the house had been
ransacked She screamed, and she
believes that her outcry frightened
the man away before he could COM
piete his designs. A quantity of cut
glass and other more or less valua-
Bile household property was piled upon
the back porch, but was not dis
turbAd, because, Mrs Williams be-
lieves, the man was frightened away
before he could get his booty ready
to carry off.
From the fact that there were 10
doors or windows broken II Is be-
lieved that the intruder hid himself
in the house early in the evening or
entered with a skeleton key.
