ust 6, 1889.
The 1889 edition of Karstons
Follies Unusual is said TO oe three
times as large AS any previous
edition. More than a carload OF
special scenery and stage effects are
utilized. In addition to dancers and
entertainers of every description,
every scene is an illusiOniStic novel
ty.
The guiding genius of this SEN
sational snow is the Well-knoWn
Snowman and illusionist Karston,
and the entire production is built
around the most amazing illusions
the world has ever known. For IN
stance, in the "Beauties of Pumpkin
Land" scene, a young lady is seen
to become smaller and smaller be-
fore your very eyes until she is SO
small, that she completely hides in
a tiny pumpkin shell. In another
sensational scene '"The Dream Of a
Chinese Emperor" a young lady is
placed into a torture chamber, after
which her head and legs are cut off
in full view of the audience, yet she
lives to tell the tale. In the $4,000
Toy Soldier Spectacle, life-sized
mechanical soldiers, while dancing
vanish, change places and go
through the most amazing trans
formations. Not often has any pro-
duction been built around so many
novelties
The dancing girls, known as the
Karstonettes, are graduates of the
famous dancing master Marlatt, and
these girls offer the finest precision
ever offered. The featured acts are
of the highest calibre, making up a
roadshow reminiscent of the good
old days of the theatre. Make plans
to attend early in order to obtain
good seats as an unual amount of
interest has already been shown in
this production.
This show will undoubtedly prove
real entertainment. It is truly fast,
fla ashy, spectacular production,
buggling over with beautiful girls,
unusual talent, and sensational
novelties of every description.

"Your horse came in. Your purse,
in the bag. The checks had your
name. Mr.. and Mrs. Brazee have
been about crazy. Come on-can
you walk? I'll carry you."
He stopped and picked her up as
if she were age 10 instead of 21
and in a moment she was in his
saddle. The motion of it panied her,
but the delight at being rescued
made her ignore the pain.
Hell carry double-I hope!"
Jerry said. 'I'll slip on easily"
The horse didn't buck. He went
on up the Phantom trail and Lorena
Hamilton wanted to cry from sheer
relief and happiness.
The other SearcherS were down
trail, Jerry said. They were to get
more help in Blanco and search
everywhere. He himself had ridden
on hastily ahead Of themY had
looked yesterday afternoon along
every foot of the way in to Blanco,
II miles. There he had obtained a
fresh horse and started back, meet
ing Mr.. Brazee and the other
horsemen. Now he would take her
safely home, then hasten to inform
| the others that she had been found.
I'VE thought surely you'd been
killed." he admitted. "Grea-a-at
day, Lorena, it's wonderful that

"I know, Mr.. Dale. You're Won
derful yourself, to have rescued me.
I'll never cease thanking you or
feeling grateful"
He looked down at the top of
her head as she rode there before
him. Unnecessarily, perhaps, he put
an arm around her to steady her.
Morning was coming on fast, re-
vealing new day glories every
where. Not the least of them was
Lorena Hamilton. Every look he
could steal Of her face convinced
him that she was beautiful. He had
already concluded that, from her
picture; but he was delighted to
have it verified.
"Even your scratches and tears
don't hurt your-your looks," he
ventured. "You are-why, YOU
say, I'll bet we could get a1ong!"
"You write nice letters" She
turned to smile at him, despite the
pain of turning. Anyway, you say
interesting things. think your de-
scription of the ranch is what
really caused me to come and visit
TInole GeOroe and Amt Sallv."
"Say, that'r great" Jerry Dale
declared, beaming.
The handsome young man showed
little sign of his sleepless night.
His stamina and vitality carried
him well now. If Lorena hadn't been
physically sore and hungry, she
might have sensed more of the
youthful magnetism of him.

the events of the past few hours.
They seemed incredible, but once
fully awake again she knew they
were very real.
She started to get up and found
her muscles and bruises so sore
that she could move only with
a stinging pain. Miraculously,
though, she was no longer fright
ened. Enough time had passed,
enough sleep had been garnered, to
restore her adult peace of mind.
She reasoned sensibly that she need
wait only a few more hours to be
safe and secure again. Anyway, she
remembered now that Shot Rogers
had said he would come to the
Phantom ranch tomorrow. Maybe
it was tomorrow now; she couldn't
see her wrist watch in the black
night. Similarly, she couldn't see
the trail or anything else but
vague forms, so she wisely settled
down against the rock again. She
had worn light clothing and it was
sadly torn now, but she wasn't too
cold.
Except for brief dozings she did
not sleep any more. The wait for
dawn seemed interminable. But it
was just at dawn-or just after
the canyon had gotten perceptibly
lighter again-that Lorena beard

for-an American man. She could

CHAPTER SIX

LORENA breathed only as alb

minutes, then she slowly raised her
neck and shoulders out of the sand.
She couldn't see living thing. The
horseman had passed rather rapid

All at once she realized that she
might have been foolish. Suppose it
hadn't been one Of the Mexicans,
after all? Probably it wasn't! This
was the Phantom Ranch trail.
Probably that was O. friendly Amer

nerves and little from the cold of
the sand bed. She looked up and
down and then started walking up
trail again, fast.
Day was dying in the west as
POLITICALLY as the poets have record
ed, but she felt only the alarm of
impending dark. Already the dis
tant hills were vague bulks with
shadow blankets pulled up for the
night. Nearby cliffs and rocks that
were alive and bronze and green
and rusty red by day had taken on
a colorless slumber. The trail was
still visible, though; she told her.
self she could follow it by star light
if need be.
From somewhere to her left a
great pack of man-eating wolves
chorused out, "Oooouu! Oou! Oo-oo-
oouu-u-u-u-u!" The truth is, they
were simply one lonely coyote prob
ably calling a friendly greeting to
some lady coyote on another hill.
But lone coyotes always howl like
dozens, and Lorena envisioned them
as terrible things with fangs.
All at once, though, she stopped
still and mentally kicked herself.
"I'm being childish" she muir

be wary of the Mexicans and hurry
along this trail, I betcha nothing
happens"
A little applied psychology is a
valuable thing. Lorena felt better.
She took a few deep breaths in
spite of the sore rib, lifted her chin
and strobe ahead. The western sky
line was silvery and comforting
Why, goodness, she could walk the
remaining four miles or so in an
hour if need be!
Half a mile further, though,
changed her mind on that point.

Garner Man Of the People,
Sound Rugged and Honest

"In such an atmosphere as this, think
we find the real soul and personality OF
America. From such humble surround
ings as these, typified by the lowly log
cabins where John Garner and his
sainted mother were born, have come
the truly great in Americas glorious
history. They knew, as he knows, what
America is, what America stands for.
and how and why our American system
Of government was conceived. They
knew, as he knows, what II means to toll
and strive and work. They knew. as he
knows, that there is no substitute for
self-reliance and individual initiative,
and that any system of government
which takes from the Individual these
fundamental tenets of liberty cannot
>long endure as democracy of freemen.
They knew, as he knows, that for men
to be free they must be guaranteed only
freedom of opportunity to work out their
own destinies, and that the highest pur-
pose and duty of government in de-
mocracy is to assure to every citizen IN
equal chance with his neighbor. This Is
the essence of John Gamers political
philosophy.
II have no patience with those who
would seek to analyze the percentage
Of ones Americanism 1t is not di-
visible thing. 1t is not something that
can be broken up into parts and ap-
praised in it's constituent elements.
Either one is an American or he is
not. Nevertheless. l cannot help but
feel that there never was time in the
history of our beloved country when
the need for the leadership of those
whose Americanism is beyond all per-
adventure of doubt was so essentially
and vitality necessary to the preserva-
ton of America and American institu-
tions as it Is at the present moment.
Here in Red River County. where
John Gamers widowed grandmother
with her six fatherless children came
from Tennessee almost hundred years
ago, built yonder log cabin. and joined
the ranks of valiant pioneers who blazed
trail for civilization and laid deep and
broad the firm foundations of Imperial
Texas, may we find. indeed. the soil
from which true Americanism is gen.
Grated and born. Here in this COM
munity, plain, home like, typically
American, is the birthplace of great
American who, in my humble opinion,
has been marked by the hand of destiny
to become the President of the great

Of all time, the United States of Amer
