he would return soon and said not to

The French officer had purpose
It is a we'll known fact that some.

the French words "vingt.neuvieme'

The Eagle hastens to inform the

ever in saying that Mr.. Hewitt was
moving to Brennan, 1t was his own
statement that he was moving to
Brennan, made while loading his
household effects, to push the work
on the interurban in which he had
interested the Brennan citizens. At
the last moment he accepted the
proposition from Navasota and went
there instead, and The Eagle is glad
or it, for as we said before, he is a
valuable publicity man. As for sitting
up and taking notice, we are already
doing that, for Notwithstanding your

The Eagle regrets exceedingly that
the north half of the court house lawn
has been converted into a hitching
place for wagons. buggies and saddle
horses. Some of the beautiful little
trees on this part of the lawn have
been gnawed by horses until the bark
IS removed entirely around them. II
they survive Il will be a miracle II
the practice OF making the lawn a
hitching lot is continued, not one OF
them will be alive twelve months
from today. The condition is the
more regrettable as the Civic League
is just now taking on new life for
the Identification of the city, and the
county has within the past few DAYS
gone to considerable expense in the
purchase and planting Of ornamental
trees for the court house lawn. The
court house lawn should he made the
most beautiful place in the county.
We owe it to the people to make Il
such and no expense should be spared
