Schools Honor Him.

AS q tribute TO the memory OI
Capt. ]. T. Strain, who has for
forty years been a teacher in the
Waco public schools, the Fifth
ward school in which he was
principal at the time of his death
was closed yesterday during the
entire day, and all the other
schools in the city were dismiss
ed thirty minutes earlier than
usual. The board meeting which
was scheduled for yesterday was
deferred out of respect to his
memory.
There was genuine regret ex-
pressed yesterday when it was
learned through the Morning
News that the death of Capt.
Strain had occurred in the early
morning hour. He was admired
by all who knew him, and during
his recent illness there has been
much anxious inquiry at the
home as to his condition. Grown
men of today, who learned their
first lesson from him, remember
the kindly man he was in the
school room, and all over Waco
there were sorrowing friends be-
cause of his demise.
The funeral occurred yesterday
afternoon from the family resi-
dence, 901 Dallas street, East
Waco, the children of the Fifth
ward school all attending, and
floral tributes from them attest
ed the high regard in which he
was held. Rev. E. E. Ingram
conducted the funeral service.

and lawyer in Waco for a third
of a century, knew him well is

patience and trust, he led the
forlorn hope of his last sickness

Hypocrisy
By GEORGE FITCH,
Author of cat Good Old Siwash.7

NRIGIINALLY hypocrisy was the
science of preaching one thing
loudly and doing another n an
eminently stealthy manner.
Tire were great many hypOerltes IN
the world 1900 wears ago, and they 'Tere
all flourishing until one day they got
put together and described by q rnys-
FERROUS itinerant preacher with such con-
Stunning elOquenee that they have been
unpopular ever since.
Hypocrisy in late years has been Dor
rowed as a weapon bv the opponents of
reform and its definition has been
changed. Nowadays a hypocrite is a
man who demand sthat something shall
be changed for the better.
1t Is very easy to prove that such
man Is a hypOcrite. If he demands that
the rascals shall be thrown out he is a
"hOher than thou" sort Of a chap. And
yet it can be easily proven that three
years ago he took drink. This makes
him a hypocrite and very naturally
proves that people should have nothing
to do with his reforms.
The word 'hypOcrite" is now the chief
defence of the man who desn't want
moral conditions improved. He viii ad-
NIT that they could be improved, but
he insists that the movement shall be
led by a perfect man. If he isn't perfect
he is a hypocrite for denouncing vice
Thus vice reigns supreme. slightly rum
pied, but wholly indicated, and the men
who cry out against vice have ths bOny
finger Of public scorn bore dthrough them
for their shocking hypocrisy.
According to the new dispensation,
every man who tries to live correctly
is hypocrite because sometimes he fails.
Virtue is hypocrisy because it isn't as
GOOD as it tries to be- The man who wells
for the enforcement of the laws is a de-
spicable creature because. most likely.
he is breaking some laws himself.
Therefore, we have only one virtue
left-vice Vice is honest, frank and
unashamed and should be honored for it.
And the lawbre=:ler who calmly Dro-
claims the fact and then buys the jury
in a broadminded and public manner,
paving spot cash and not cheating any
body IS our only true nobleman.
Hypocrisy is the curse of the nation,
and viii be until we learn not to he
afraid Of it.-Copyrighted by George
Matthew Adams.

Dark
By Walt Mason.

There's nothing doing at the park, the
bleaehers all are bare, the grandstand's
emn cold and dark, no fans are yell
ing there. Where are the lads, the gifted
lads, who lately played the game, and
thereby gathered in the seads, and
wreathed themselves with fame? WheU
are the men who brought distress to
foes, and won the goal? All, some are
writing for the press their dreary rig
marole; which rigmarole, all full of 'Ts,"
gives mankind clammy thrills; the base
ball lads, if thev were wise, would throw
away their quilts. And some are doing
monOloges upon the weary stage; at
tired in circus actors toys, they earn
their winter wage; their monologes are
full of U.s. and also full of ines; and
hearers say, with heartfelt signs, that
something smells of cheese. And some
are wrangling loud and long, with energy
and fire; one says that t'other did him
wrong. and t'other calls him Tyre. And
thus themselves they advertise, as busily
as bees, with endless jags of big fat rs"
and wagonlOads of "me's." Oh, I'll be
glad when spring is here, for then the
players all will quit their eapers strange
and queer, and play the game of ball

TAKEN BY REBELS
Herd of Sheep Driven Off by Rebels
Near Pearson, Almost in Sight of
the FederaIs.

Last week while the federaIs were in
full possession at Pearson, some rebels
came down from the mountains. went
to SkOusen's mill, Just below COlOnia
Juarez, and ordered two fOur-hOrse
teams and two wagon loads Of flour,
all OF which were furnished by the Nor
mon millOwners. Then men were put
on the loads as teamsters, supposedly
to bring back the money and the out
fits When they reached the summit OF
the hill, the teamsters were sent adrift
and they walked back to COlOnia
duarez. The rebels KEEP their teams.
At the same time some horses and
saddles belonging to Mexicans were
stolen by the rebels
The report is also brought by Mormon
refugees that while 1900 federals were
at Pearson, pretending to guard prop
erty, rebels came from the mountains
and drove off a whole herd Of sheep
passing within seven miles OF the gar
risOns and no question was raised or
attempt made to recover the sheep.
George HawS received a telegram
from mis- wife, who is in Utah, that their
