| friends to mourn her demise, Mr..
Henry Pendarvers, who operates q
successful business on Falls Street,
has decided to make about $4,000
improvement of his building to ac-
somodate his many customers. The
Sand Grady from Galveston played
two days game here last week with
the local team and defeated us each
time by narrow margin. Waco
Navigators are playing us as we go
! to press. A move is being bostered
! by some of our best thinking men
to open a dry goods store in the
near future-"good," for competition
is the life of trade in any kind OF
business regardless of who is run
ming it. 1t makes it better for all
concerned. We need another ice plant
here, and if another should be erect
ed you would see different atti-
tude to that at present, and one could
better get the required amount for
value received. Messrs. s. ]. Wash
ington, r. p. Paul have landed into
big real estate business. They are
prepared to sell, buy and rent. They
are prepared to assist you in your
! financial troubles. We need more of
this kind of business. In fact, we
need everything in a commercial way
that any other race needs. And in
return we will have to support these
enterprises Mrs. A. X. Wheeler un-
derwent an operation last week and

has the case in charge. She Is doing
nicely at this writing. Mrs. Laura
Faithful has just emerged from Dr.
Aliens hospital, where she UNDER
went an operation. From all indi-
cations there will be q big Negro
bank opened in Marlin. The matter
is being discussed, and it seems as
if the plans are about perfected. We
have financiers in the city who can
establish as good and sound ordinary
hank as is in this state Watch for
them, for they are coming. Mr.. Gar
field Wheeler is having a play house
and store building erected on his
south side property. Mrs. Bailey

at her work. Mr. Rufus Johnson OF
p, V. S. N. S. is in the city for q
rest Mrs. H. w. Galloway is pre-
pairing to pull off a big concert or
the Goth instant. To witness this
play will be quite a treat, but tC
miss it will be a great loss. DR.
Hunter has made some improvements
on his Sanitarium. This great doc
tor has an eye of an eagle. The
doctor has nothing in his way but
success. Mrs. Arie Livingston who
has been with one of the leadin?
Bath Houses is now with DR.. Hun
ters Sanitarium. Mr.. Debolds handles
the men. Some ministers only know
how to handle their churches, but
there are some ministers who know
how to handle Jacks and Jennies ant
Mules. This has been proven by the
recent investment of a certain min
lister of $45 or $50 in span of the
same kind of animals that Chris
was accused of riding through the
Streets of Jerusalem. He has then
hid out some where and expects t
be seen riding up the streets of Mar.

hope flowers and branches of trees
will be thrown in his path. Miss
Ida Faithful will leave soon for the
Nurse Training School at Nashville
Tenn. The Marlin Public Schoo
will open in about two weeks anC
all parents who have children Il

to do for us, for they are preparin'
for their own people. The nimrod'
and two anglers went abroad fol
three days last week, eager to bal
big game. After being out for some
time, wasting ammunition with no re
suits they decided to shoot up some
thing. And they made prey on TOAD
frogs, turtles and blue Jays, all o
which fell victims to their furiou.
clubs. They wasted all ammunition
and bate before they were forced
ito use their rods and clubs to be
successful. People should learn t
do things before trying to render
service to the public. You will Ger
