MASS MEETING HELD.
Plans for New School Building
Discussed.
*
MUTY
LOUR I
A mass meeting of citizens was
held in the Woodmen hall last Satur-
day night to discuss the conditions of
the school and decide upon plans for
securing additional room or a new
building.
Rev. J. T. Weems, a member of
the hoard of trustees was made
chairman of the meeting and the
proposition to issue bonds for the
purpose of erecting a new high school
building was discussed by Judge E.
B. Anderson, Judge S. H. Allen, Dr.
M. L. Brown, Prof. Peyton Irving,
Messrs. B. F. Geeslin, J. C. Street
and others. The plan was agreed
upon as the only way in which the
building could be secured and a reso-
lution was adopted requesting the
school board to ascertain the • cost of
a building that would supply the
needs and pledging those in attend-
ance to support a bond issue to the
amount of $15,000 if necessary for the
erection of such a building. .
The board has not yet reported
any plans and specifications, but it
is sure there will be a definite re-
port within the next few days.

Editor Eagle:
News is very scarce this week, but
will write the latest happenings.
I enjoy reading the Eagle very
much, especially the local news.
We are indeed proud to say, those
that were on the sick list last week
are much better at this writing.
We are also glad to learn that Mrs.
J. M. Harris of Caradan, who is in
a sanitarium at Temple, is improv-
ing as fast as could be expected un-
der the circumstances. She expects
to be able to come home in two or
three weeks.
Miss Janie Peck of Alabama is
now visiting her grandmother, Mrs.
M. J. Taylor.
Mrs. Susie Williams and family of
near Center City were visiting her
mother, Mrs. M. J. Taylor, the lat-
ter part of last week.
Mrs. M. J. Taylor and Miss Peck
attended the funeral of Mr. Hancock
at Mullin Monday afternoon and
spent Monday night with Mrs. Hat-
ten Hancock, Mrs. Taylor’s daugh-
ter.
- The young folks enjoyed themselves
very much at the home of Miss Hill

Miss Cona Hightower ha£ been
absent from school the^/fore part
of this week, with the /plea of sore
eyes. We sincerely beli/ev'e the cause
of it was on account of the severe
weather Sunday “some” of the call-
ers she expected were absent. For
her sake we are hoping next Sun-
day will bring more sunshine.
We are informed that while Com-
missioner Carter of Center City was
inspecting the North Brown roads one
day this week, happened to the acci-
dent of breaking his buggy wheel.
Come again Blackeyed Annie and
also Jolly Bill, we are always glad
to hear from your communities.

DISTILLED WATER GETTING
“ALL THE RAGE.”
Distilled water is absolutely free
from minerals as well as animal
and vegetable matter in suspension
or solution.
The new born babe is brought to
us in a soft or gelatinous condition.
Ossification comes with age, due to
the clogging of the arteries and veins
with minerals, such as lime, etc.
These minerals are related to uric
acid, hence rheumatism and kindred
diseases of man.
Distilled water will dissolve these
minerals and let them pass from the
system, and it has been stated by
reputable medical journals that the
use of distilled water from the 30th
year would prolong life from ten to
twenty years.
Distilled water is so soft, so abso-
lutely pure and is so palatable and
satisfying, that once anybody begins
to use it they will have nothing else.
Large employers of labor have come
to realize that much of the sickness
among their force is due to impure
drinking water, which often results
in typhoid epidemics. It has been
demonstrated a matter cf real econ-
omy to provide pure drinking water
in shops and offices. Educational in-
stitutions, hospitals, clubs ind cafes
are serving bottled wlter and
preference is always given ta dis-
tilled water.    J
Distilled water 10c per/ gallon de-
livered.    i

M. M. HANCOCK DEAD.
Mr. M. M. Hancock died in the
sanitarium in Temple Sunday night
and his remains were carried to Mul-
lin on Monday morning’s train and
interred in the cemetery at that
place Monday afternoon.
Mr. Hancock was. apparently in
good health Avhen he was in Gold-
thwaite Friday of last week. Satur-
day he became ill at his home at
Mullin and summoned physicians to
attend him and they decided it ad-
visable to carry him to the sani-.
tarium on Saturday night’s train, but
no relief was given him there and
he continued to suffer until Sunday
night, when he died. It is the opinion-'
of those who were in position to
know, that he either suffered from
gallstones, appendicitis or a ruptured ,
intestine, but the exact nature of
the trouble was never determined and
no operation was performed.
Mr. Hancock was one of the best
known me£ in the county and had
been a leading citizen for a long
time. He was representative in the
21st legislature in 1889 from the dis-
trict then composed of Comanche,13!
Brown and Mills counties. He wasej
72 years of age and had lived in
this section a long time. He was an
ex-Confederate veteran- and a loyal
member of Jeff Davis camp. He had-'7
many friends in thisxcounty and else-,
where and the united sympathy of
them all goes out to the bereaved
wife and sons and other relatives.

CONRO-BELMAY.
The friends here of Roy Conro have .
learned with pleasure of his marriage
in Corpus Christi a few days since
to Miss Gertude Belmay of that city.
Roy was raised here and is one of
Goldthwaite’s promising and most de-
serving young men. He has been lo-
cated in Corpus Christi for several
months, where he is engaged in the
automobile business. His bride is a.
stranger to Mills county folk, but sheJ
has the good wishes of all her iius-J
band’s many friends in this city ant;
county. .
The young couple will make theii|
home in Corpus Christi for a time
and perhaps permanently.
