RARE BEN JoNsoN.

Bully Than Or. johnson.

He Was Fat and Coarse and q Worse
Bully Than Or. johnson.
Rare Ben Jonson." who is admired
by every body and read by nobody. was
distinctly unpleasant individual who
had few real friends during his life
time A good many people pretended
TO like him and enjoy his society be-
cause they were afraid of him. He was
not only vindictive with his pen. but he
was quick to imsg CINE insults or sights
and was prone to resent them with his
fists. ....
Originally bricklayer. he was big
and burly and strong as n government
mule until so weighed down by fat that
he could scarcely navigate. After re-
covering from a sickness once he said
he had been at deaths door. where
upon some forgotten humorist re-
marked that death didn't have door
big enough TO admit him.
Jonson had powerful frame and
huge. hairy hands: his face was heavy
and norid. the lower part covered with
reddish whiskers, and he was extreme
ly sloyenly in his dress. He was a
worse bully than Samuel johnson. The
latter with all his faults, never raised
a rough house.
Jonson fought two duels and killed
his man on both occasions. His first
was with soldier during wartime.
and he was not brought 10 account for
that. Later he killed an actor with
whom he had some trifiing quarrel and
for this was sentenced to death The
sentence was committed. but he was
branded upon the hand before being
given his liberty.
His life was stormy. and when he de-
parted there was no Overwhelming
grief. The fact that his name remains
a household word is strange. for not
one man in a million has ever read his
works.-Chicago News.

"Freckles."

An attraction which should cause
more than the usual desire to see
play, is Neil Twomey's dramatization
of Gene Stratton-Porter's widely read
story "Freckles,' which will be the
attraction at the Gennett theater next
When 1T is considered that this fasci-
mating story OF Indiana's great swamp
country, THE Limberlost." has had
more than a million readers, there is
no wonder that the drama is causing
far more than the ordinary attention
Where q book contains the vital re-
quisites for dramatiZation, the play is
always of more interest than the sto-
ry. because the Imagination is not
taxed and the characters are living,
breathing ones.
The dramatist in adapting 'Freck-
les" for the stage, has kept strictly
to the text of the book. The familiar
character of Freckles-a nameless
waif when the story opens, manly in
the way in which he takes hold of life,
in the nature friendships he forms in
the great "Limberlost" swamp, in the
charm of his engaging personality and
his love story with "The Angel" his
various exploits with the timber
thieves, are all scenes of the play 1t is
proving the success of the season, ev-
erywhere 1t is played.

the shallow water lands IN Luo-
book and Hockey counties where
the development is constantly in
creasing. Here as in other
districts wells are being con-
tracted so rapidly that only
unusually large plants attract
. irticuiar attention. AmoCg
such may be mentioned the well
of the Hon. Jno. l.. Workman
some eight miles east of Lubbock
with a flow OF 1000 gallons per
minute. This is one of the units
in the development of a tract of
some 1900 acres of land.
Wherever the attempt to secure
water in quantity has been made,
failures are unknown.
Lubbock is a thriving city of
5000 people admirably located
on the Yellow House Canyon
aft riding excellent drainage and
within a short distance of deposits

appearance of the business pOr-
ton of the city with its sub
stantial structures of modern
construction is altogether invit-

of its stability and the confidence
of its builders in the future

make their homes. their surplus

question, in other words he has
tried to famillarize himself with
the whole proposition in order TO
do the best work for Lubbock.
This one thing takes time. Many
men with automobiles and teams
have been very kind in assisting
him in this.
At the same time. while going
over the county he has taken
a number of pictures to be used
in disseminating information to
the world. Some of these
pictures will be printed in the
form of postcards, which will be
on sale at various stores as soon
as they can be printed.
He corresponds for several
papers. with the idea of getting
Lubbock before the reading
public every where possible.
A folder was prepared. and is
being sent to hundreds of people
all over the country. Several
circulars have been multigraphed,
and used for advertising purposes.
One letter was sent 10 many OF
the business men asking for
names of those who might be
interested in Lubbock. Several
hundred good names were re-
celved IN this way. and literature
is being sent out as fast as the
secretary has time.
All names, and all correspon-
dence are kept confidential, no
one sees either. Should a cor
respondent write asking the
name of real estate dealer, or
a business man. the secretary
gives the names OF all members
of the Chamber of Commerce
who are interested in that par
tlcular line. He cannot and will
not give any man or firm the
preference. All conversation
which is desired TO be confiden-
tial, is rigidly kept so.
