 E. A. Dunn presided over the meet ing and Rufus Haydon served as sec retary. After considerable discus sion 1t was decided to appoint an executive committee and instruct it
 to use all legal means to prevent the stock law from being put into effect in the eight townships in this
 county which voted to organize a dis trict at the November election. The committee is composed of Frank
 Worthen, J. E. Dempsey, J. J. Hen
 derson, H. G. Perry, J. E. Finton and

 AT SAN ANGELO. TEX.
Miss Mary Ewing Clark's Marriage is Surprise to Her Parents
 and Friends.

Miss Mary Ewing Clark, daughter of Attorney and Mrs. George w. Clark, 502 Scott street, was married this week to Mr. Davis, son of Dr. and Mrs. Prentice Davis of San Angelo. News of Miss Clark's mar riage was a surprise to both her parents and her friends.
 When Mrs. Clark went to the rail way station at San Angelo Thursday afternoon to board a train for Con- way, a messenger handed her note which contained the information of her daughters marriage. Mrs. Clark had met Mr. Davis, who had visited her daughter quite often during the past month.
 In company with Misses Mary Ew- ing and Flora Sue Clark and Hugh Clark, Mrs. Clark vert to San An gelo about a month ago for the benefit of Hugh's health Miss Mary Ewing met MT. Davis shortly after the Clarks' arrival. Friendship soon ripened into love, which eliminated in matrimony.. The ceremony was pronounced by Rev. Terry, presiding elder of the Methodist church, at San Angelo.
