they will keep their own organi-

—We wonder if S. S. Cox’s
Southern tour has anything to
do with his candidacy for the
Speakership of the next House
of Representatives ?
—About the oldest little game
of draw we know of was played
when Joshua razed Jericho, and
the fellows of the city wished
they hadn’t stayed in.
—And now Chicago and Cin-
cinnati lift up their voices ana
hearts in praise. War elevates
the hog, both in price and char-
acter. Their pork and bacon is

—The Dallas Herald seems to
have a slight leaning toward its
friend Roger, as the next Gov-
ernor of Texas, but he won’t
quite get there. These spas
modic cases of favor are not
the kind to last.
—The Sherman Register says
that “it is contended that the
trade of this section in going to
St. Louis has been diverted
from its natural channel by ar-
bitrary discriminations by the
Iron Mo a tain, and that by nat-
ural laws it would seek the route
via Memphis to the East, that
route being nearly two hundred
miles nearer than by St. Louis.”
“Natural laws” no longer control
the movement of the products
of the country. There are no
“natural advantages” that can
lie supinely by and contend with
the vim, enterprise and capital
of an energetic city like St. Lou-
is. If the Eastern cities want
the trade of Texas, they must
work for it. Work, and work
alone, will succeed in obtaining
it.
The Hen as She Really is.
Now there is another man who
thinks he knows how to make
hens lay, and he communicates
the process to one of the agricul-
tural papers. It is in the food,
of course. That’s what a$v these
idiots say. When will5the tnie
nobility of a hen he unclefstood ’?
Hens are not machmejsv”lThey
are reasoning, thinking %eiii|s.
If there is one sight more im-
pressive than another it is a hen
thinking. To make a hen lay
get on her best side: work on
her feelings. This can be done
by studying her nature; and
learning her tastes. This ac-
complished, go to work to show
her that you are her friend, and
not a grinding, grasping leech,
with no higher ambition than
worming eggs out of her. When
a hen sees that you love and re-
spect her; that you are truly her
friend; that you are in active
sympathy with her reaching out
for the undefinable in nature, she
will just turn her toes in, tighten
her jaws, and fairly fill the entire
atmosphere with eggs. You
can’t lay for a hen with food
tricks. A hen despises conceal-
ment.—Danbury News.
A Deaf man Talks Politics-
groceries.
—If Tweed should turn States
witness against his partuefs in
crime, in order to purchase im-
munity from his own sins, it
will show him to be even a
greater villain than auy one
ever suspected him of being.
—The question of gold in the
Black Hills is now definitely set-
tled. Eli Perkins has been
there and says there is gold in
paying quantities, and Eli
knows. Don’t all rush off at
once. Let there be people
enough left to elect the next
Governor.
—-The following crop item appears in
the Dallas Herald, of Friday:
“A gentleman just in from the fifth
ward says the wheat r between
here and there looks finely. Little or
no damage from grasshoppers.”
‘•Justin from the fifth ward”—does
Dallas have to utilize space in her me-
tropolitan limits by planting it in cere
als ?— Waco Examiner.
The Democrat predicted as
early as February, 1874, that
grass would grow in the streets
of Dallas, and it is not surprised
to learn that they have sown it
down in wheat.
—Among the agricultural
items ia the columns of For-
nay's Press we find the follow-
ing:
—At a Texas boy show it was a long
time before any one could be found to
act as judge. Finally five brave men
were found to act, on condition that the
awards should not be announced till
the judges had ten minutes’start. The
mothers sat in a circle, babies in lap.
The judges made their rounds, com-
pared notes, handed the result to the
spokesman and i an tor their lives.
We presume it was printed to
-show now big a story they could
raise from a very small seed.
STATE NEWS.

streets., ,. .....
A ton’s
estern Texas Railroad
opened its office for business
last Monday. It runs to Patter-
son, forty-one miles.
There are now one hundred
and three students at the Texes
Agricultural and Mechanical
College, near Bryan.
The Fannin County Bank will
will soon erect an elegant build-
ing on the South-east corner of
the square, Bonham.
Eugene Massey, who was ar-
rested at Denison a few days
since for theft of money, and
lodged in jail at Sherman, was
discharge^, the grand jury fail-
ing to find a “true bill.”
The Hearne Enterprise has
sent its editor to seek “pastures
new,” but being a “patent in-
sider,” the name of W. P. Smith
remains at the head of the edi-
torial columns until the supply
of “insides” is exhausted.
One of the gents of the road
who robbed the stage between
San Antonio and Uvalde, who
were captured by a squad of
United States soldiers, is named
Iloerner, the condemned pirate,
who escaped ten or twelve days
ago from the San Antonio jail.
He had just been consigned to
the penitentiary for ten years,
and this little job makes his
serving of the State life endur-
ing.
They have highway robberies
in the streets of Denison. On
Sunday night a man named
Lanske, traveling for a New
York house, was knocked down
and robbed of $300 on Skiddy
street, and Monday night two
young men named Vining and
Johnson were halted in tne
South-western portion of the
city and robbed of their valua
bles. From Vining the thieves
obtained fifty cents iu money
and a pint of whiskey. Johnson
lost a pistol and knife ; and now,
when a Denison mau goes out
side the yard after dark he
leaves his jewels in fhe house.
One ol the oldest and most dis-
reputable citizens of San Anto-
nio forgot, us was his usual cus
tom, to pay for “the smile” he.
hadjnst taken. The old
man is a little
bar-keeper mildhyii
if be hakdaiiPF’"?-, P?
intimated that
^^^^^Vxtr& quarter about
£uld not be refused with
m in part payment.
“Another extra out, is there?”
he remarked, moving toward the
door.
“When are you going to pay
that 15 cents, hey !” said the bar
keeper in a raised tone of voice,
moving gently toward him.
The old gentleman nodded and
hallooed back, “Yes, Hayes is
in. Eight ol the fifteen went
for him.”
The barkeeper sidled up to-
ward him, to get a square kick,
observing rather excitedly, “You
are acting-badly.”
-Bradley, that’s just what
Isay,” and he slid out just as
the foot went up iu the air and
was visible for a moment over
the top of the swinging doors,
while the aforesaid old customer
continued on down the stieet,
with a smile on his face as if the
angels were whispering to him.

—Ail kinds of railroad rumors are
afloat on our streets, some of them very
ridiculous, but we can assure our citi-
zens that something in that direction
will be shortly done, satisfying every
one that Denison, as in the past, will be
the great railroad centre of Northern
Texas.—Denison News.
No question about it. We
know how you feel. Have beeu
all along there. Denison “in the
past” may be the great railroad
centre of Northern Texas, bat
Denison of the present and fu-
ture, is about one hundred per
cent, behind Fort Worth.
—To have constantly upon your
mind a tcn-milHon-dollar uncle, or
whom you are the chief heir, is no
light matter, you may depend.—Cowrie?-
Journal.
It is so long since we have
had such a high-priced relative
on oar mind, or on any other
dement of our body composite,
that we don’t exactly know Us

dogs and typhoid fever are so
good, we would try and bear up

A Man Who Grew.
One day last week a Detroit
mechanic was going down Mich-
igan avenue aud became favor-
ably impressed with a pair of
pants hanging in front of a
cheap clothing store. The price
was low, the goods seemed all
right, aud he made up his mind
to purchase.
“I gif yon de word of Andrew
Shackson dat dose pants are
sliust like iron,” said the dealer.
“I warrants dem e fiery dime.”
Afier three or four days’ wear
the purchaser found the bottom
of the pants ciawling toward
his kuecs. It was a bad case of
shrinkage, and he got mad and
went back to the store and said:
“You swindled me on those
pants. See how they have
shrunk !”
The dealer looked him all
over, felt of his head* pulled on
the pants and finally-.said :
“1 shall give you one tousand
dollars a month if you will
travel with me.”
“How—what,!”
“You are shust growing right
up at the rate of two inches a
day, and I takes you aroundt
the country ou exhibition. Dose
pants are sliust as long as efer,
birt you taf grown omit of
61 dem.”
