It's Worth Money TO Think Sometimes
If you'd think for moment you'd readily see that
we have every advantage in the piano business
1t costs $3.50 to sell piano where agent en-
poyed-his salary and expenses have to be paid
sometimes for month before he sells piano. You
don't need an agent to talk you into buying; you
know your needs; you know your ability to pay
Give thought to the people you buy from than to
the name on the piano. We are not musicians with
opinion of Makes we are business men with
knowledge of what constitutes value. Not cent of
expense to us to sell pianos and organs-no extra
SaeSmen no more rent, no expense of haulng-ab-
soutelely selling cost. We are in the piano bus
mess to stay! When you understand that you can
come right to this and select one of the Worlds
Best Pianos and buy it at price more than others
have to charge fer cheap makes, and then you'll save
yourself the expense and annoyance of an agent too
You couldn't buy better piano than the "Crown;"
you couldn't get better piano for the price than the
Concord We offer you piano for $3.50 that is
equal to many sold for $3.50. Our prices are the
lowest, our terms are easy. If you want piano.

KENT HUDSPETH.

Shortly after noon yesterday Mr.,
Earl Kent and Miss Martha Hudspeth
were united in marriage by Rev. Glenn
Finn at the Methodist parsonage.
They left on. the afternoon train for
Marlin, where they will spend few
days.
The bride is a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs w. M. Hudspeth of Tabor where
she was reared into sweet and lovable
womanhood. Mr.. Kent is a stranger in
this city, but he is well spoken of by
those who know him in his native
state, Louisiana. He is travelling
salesman, and at present the young
couple will not make permanent
home, but Marlin will be their head
quarters.

HELP THE CENSUS ENUMERAToR.

The Eagle believes the people of
Bryan will commend most heartily the
action of the city council in arranging
to have correct census of the city
taken. 1t is needed for more reasons
than one. The last federal census, in
our opinion, did Bryan a great injus-
tice, and correct census taken now
will overcome this injustice to a large
extent. Besides, Bryan's population
has greatly increased since the federal
census was taken and it is very neces-
sary that we have the exact figures
on our population. When we get them
in black and white, we can proclaim
the fact to the world, and the informa-
ton will be of great benefit to the
Commercial Club in its advertising
campaigns Of Bryan.
The Eagle would urge the people to
assist Mr. Jolly, the enumerator, in
every way possible. They can be of
great assistance to him, or they can
greatly hinder his work. The success
of the census depends largely on the
people. Let all unite in furnishing Mr..
jolly all the information possible, and
do 1t promptly.

HYMEM|AL
ooDsoE-MATHIs.

At IL o'clock Sunday at Steep Hol-
low church Miss Maggie Mathis was
led to Hymen's altar by Mr.. Frank A.
Godsoe of Waco, Rev. ]. NJ. Bullock,
the pastor, officiating. A large num-
Der of the people of the Steep Hollow
community, together with number of
the students of the Bryan Baptist
Academy, were present to witness the
happy event, and as the solemn words
were spoken which for aye and aye
united the lives and destinies of the
happy pair, silent prayer was waited
heavenward from many hearts that
their days may be long in the earth,
and that their life work may be blest
of the Lord to the glory of His name,
and to the betterment OF the world
and humanity.
The bride is a daughter of Mr., and
Mrs. j. w. Mathis of Steep Hollow,
and nobler, purer, more consecrated
and self-sacrificing girl was never
reared in Brazos county. She is the
embodiment of all that is good and
pure and noble, and as result is
loved by all who know her. She was
educated in the Bryan Baptist Acad-
envy, is refined and polished OF mind
and heart, and was a favorite at the
academy from the day she first en-
tered its walls. Since graduation she
has served the academy in different
capacities, and during the present SEES
sion was assistant matron. She will
be sadly missed by directors, faculty
and students, and her like will scarce
ly be found again.
Mr.. Godsoe is a ministerial student
in Baylor University, and is young
man of great promise. He is to be
congratulated upon his good fortune in
winning young lady who will not
only be companion and helpmeet to
him, but an inspiration for the highest
and noblest service he is capable of
rendering.
After the ceremony the bride and
groom came to Bryan and left by the
afternoon train for Waco Many of the
students of the Baptist Academy and
other friends were present to say
goodbye" and bid them Godspeed.

Alice Stone Blackwell gives as one
of the reasons why woman should
vote, that those who must obey the
laws should have voice in making
them" The woman who has not from
the beginning of time had voice in
the making of the laws has overlooked
her opportunity. There is no woman
who has not an influence with some
man or men in the relationship of hus-
band, father or brother, and the wom-
en- of the country, through that in
fluence, have the making of the laws
in their own hands. Many of them,
however, are not SO much concerned
about the laws. What they want, is to
wear the pants, vote, hold office, make
the laws, run the country and raise
sand generally. That is a different
matter.

At the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. G

o'clock H. e. Watson and Mrs. e. j.

Lindsey. Only members of the family
were present, and the wedding was
sweet in it's simplicity. The groom is
a son of Rev. and Mrs. Isaiah Watson,
who have resided in this city for the
space of four years, in which time he
has won the respect of everyone as an
upright and enterprising young man.
Mrs. e. j. McElroy is a daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. H. G. Youngblood and

A. AND NJ. APPROPRIATIONS.

The Eagle publishes today resume
of the needed appropriations for the
A. and M. College, and which the COM
ing legislature will be asked to make.
The amount, which totals S1,221,575,
is not unreasonable at all-in fact, it
is very modest, taking into considera-
ton the great losses the school has
sustained by fire during the past two
years, and it's present sore needs.
Texas is a great state, and while its
A. and NJ. College is great school, it
should be greater, and should be
brought as rapidly as possible to that
degree of efficiency that will enable
it to meet every demand made upon
it by the sons of Texas and other

Morris Sheppard has announced
that he will be a candidate for the
short term in the senate to which
Colonel Johnston was appointed by
Governor Colquitt, and which will be
something like thirty days from the
time the legislature gets ready to
elect until the term expires by limita-
tion on March 4. Mr. Sheppard says
he thinks it is best for him to get into
the senate as soon as possible. We
do too; for We'll be dingbusted if We
believe he will have time in the six
years to which he has already been
elected to expand to the proportions
in body, mind, and craftsmanship,
requisite to a United States senator.
He had better get in as soon as pos;
sible. In fact, it would have been
better if he could have had several
years kindergarten training.

a MAIN STREET BOULEVARD.

Now that the paving bonds have
been voted and Main street is to be
paved, The Eagle would once more
suggest that it would be a waste OF
time and money to pave the entire
102 feet from curb to curb. The cen
ter should be boulevarded and at least
twenty feet enclosed. There is not the
slightest doubt but that in very few
years car tracks will traverse the
center of Main street and the money
expended in paving it now would be
thrown away. A twenty-foot boulevard
would leave forty-one feet on either
side, and there is really no need for
that much. Ten feet or more on each
side could be taken up by setting out
the curb the same as it is in front of
the city hall. This would leave street
thirty-one feet wide on either side of
the boulevard, which would be ample
for all vehicle purposes. By adopting
this plan, the cost of paving Main
street would be reduced exactly one
half and the money voted for paving
purposes would cover twice as much
territory.
These are merely suggestions for
the consideration of the people, and
particularly the members of the coun-
Gil. They are given at this time in
order that the matter may be thor
oughly discussed and considered be.
fore the time arrives to begin the
actual work of paving.

True education is that which
teaches men to be of service. Hence
the superiority of the practical train
ing offered by our Texas Agricultural
and Mechanical College. 1t is hardly
once ina lifetime that you can be
of service by interpreting an Egyptian
hieroglyphic, the Talmud or the Greek
scriptures. But in this day, of modern
progress, our rivers are to be bridged,
our mountains leveled and tunneled,
our forests conserved, the earth made
to give up her minerals and metals,
the secrets of the soil unlocked, cities
builded, streets paved, permanent
highways constructed, etc. He who is
equipped to lead in these great under
takings is the best educated, by being
ready to render to his fellowman the
very highest possible form of service.
