about to issue a schedule of freight
rates on live stock.
When the coinmission organ-
ized. the first thing it did was to
issuea circular requiring the roads
to make no change in existing
rates neither to raise or lower
them without its authoritv. This
order took from the roads the
power to increase rates on certain
lines of freight in order to meet
the eommission's reductions in
a inonui or two. i ue preparation

This brief glance at what the
commission has done shows that
it has put out about a dozen com
modity tariffs which made in every
.instance some reduction in the old
rates; the roads say excessive re
duotioiis about which some of
them complain grievously.

Prownwood had the Mart of us l
at least 1 100 feet in the race for
artesian water. We bored here

City .Style.
Last week the cases and coun-
ters for Ira Border's new jewelry
store arrived and were put in place
making it one of the handsomest
iewelrv stores west of Fort Worth.
It is furnished entirely in antique
oak. made to sjecial order for Mr.
Holder. On the right as ou en-
ter i the regulator a work of art
and mechanical exactness. The
case is of antique oak beautifully
decorated. The movement was
imjiorted from France and has
finely jeweled dead-beat escape-
ment: three jar mercurial pendu-.
iiin and is calculated to be as near
a jierfect time keejier as can be
made. Net in order are two an-
tique oak wall case- with balanced
sliding doors and between them a
full length jdate glass mirror. In
front i the wall cases are coun-
ters and counter cases to match.
We must not lorget to mention
the watchmakers bench covered
with line and complicated tools
and machiueiy. of the newest and
most apjroved designs which is
presided over In V. A. True a
watchmaker and ettgraer f well
known ability. A jart of tin new
stock ha aimed ami new goods-
are being addeil almost everyday.
All told it is a little gem of a .jew-
el r stoic and a credit to Abilene.
A Valuable Hook.
IIe. Wesle Smith of Abilene
is agent tor Talor county for tho
j)Ojular work entitled 'Character
Sketches." b (leorge A. Lofton.
A. M.. I). I). This work is finely
illustrated highly readable and
should timl its wa intocvety fam-
ily in the land. It is a book that
will both interest and instruct ev-
erv one who reads it. The uuent
is now canvassing the city and
should obtain a long list of names.
llr. L T. Hanks pastor of the
ISajitist church of Abilene says of
this book: "Having -Character
Sketches. and knowing the author
I will hcartih recommend the
book."
L'e. S L. McAinis. pastor ol
the Cnuiheri.iiid I'resbyterMui
elitireh ot this jdace. says of it:
1 reeoitiuiend this meritorious
woik to all who desire a elearcotn-
juebension ot the subject treated."
S L. Neel. of the NkVS force
has had a cop of t In book for
sometime and thinks a great deal
of it. And the editor of the News
too could add his mite in the way
of a i eco m men da tion if he deemed
it would adil Weight to the tPsti-
ntoii. but will onlv sav he hopes
all who are able will buy a cojjy
and lead it.
