A party of Crosbyton people
with some Chicago vwitors. made
a run to Spur in two automobiles
Sunday afternoon. The party
' consisted of P. L, arid J. Sr
Coonley and Mr. Drake, of Chi-
cago; Mr. and Mrs. J. C. John-
son, Julian Bassett, J. 0. Oker-
bloom and J. W. Burton, , of
Crosbyton.
The run to Spur was made in
' fast time and the party reached
that place at 6 o'clock. Dinner
at the Spur Inn was a feature.. of
the trip andthe visitors roporte(f
it as a very good dinner.
The return tp Crosbyton,. was
made by modnlight, there being
' on last Sunday night an extra
fine, large moon. The road to
Spur is a good road, for the
greater part of the way, and "the
return trip was pleasant, not to
say romantic.
The gentlemen from Chicago
left for home Tuesday morning.
They showed a great deal pi'in-
terest in everything in^Crosby-
ton and in the surrounding coun-
try. They visited all the new
places of business and did not
overlook the oldtimers. No im-
provement that had taken place
in the town since their last visit
escaped their notice and com-
ment. They called at the new
furniture store and were glad to
see the class of goods carried,
they counted the houses moved
from Emma and admired the
new residences erected. The
4 miles of cement walks and many
7'. shade trees planted -gave them
satisfaction; but that which
pleased them most was the pro-
gressive character of the people
of the town—their neat places of
business and general disposition
to make everything look good
around tiem.

North draw was also in course
of building and that the second
bridge would not consume a
great deal of time. He said that;
he was informed by the contrac-
tor -that all the bridge work
would be finished by Dec. 15th,
and the road bed would be ready
for track laying.
"The work on the bridges is
of a high grade and very sub-
stantial," said Judge Covington.
"It is going to be a good railroad
when fimshed. I noticed all the
material is much superior to that
of most, new railroads and the
classof construction superior."
The judge was informed that
all the rolling stock and other
Qtiuipment for the road-had been
purchased, which was news to
him. The finishing of the road to
Crosbyton Jan. 15, as promised
by the contractors, was also good
news to him.
