DICKINSON.
Special to The Tribune.
Dickinson, Tex., Sept. 28.—Last night
was given on the grounds of the resi-
dence of Mrs. S. "W. Barnes an open-air
minstrel performance under the direc-
tion of Mr. William Lothrop for the
benefit of the Episcopal mission. About
thirty performers left Galveston on the
Interurban railway for Oleander, and
among the trees on the banks of the
river rendered some of their best songs
on a beautifully decorated stage. The
scenery and lighting effects were equal
to the surroundings, and the rippling
waters in the river sparkling from the
light of the moon gave the y/feole sur-
roundings a charm that > will linger
long in the memory of those who at-
tended t*he entertainment. The per-
formers under Mr. Lothrop’s directions
did very well and several encores were
demanded. >

During the week that followed I no-
ticed that Mrs. John spent much time
in studying the daily papers. Once I
asked her the meaning of her sudden
interest. “Oh, I’ve'just discovered how '
interesting the Want Ad columns are,”
she replied, “and I’m looking to see if
our farm is advertised anywhere?”
“What success?” I asked. “I’ve cut
out several ads that sound good, and
when you can have a day or two off
we will look them up.”
Accordingly, one bright May morn-
ong, a few days after, we took our
Want Ad list and boarded the trolleys
in search of our promised land.
We visited two places, but they were
not what we wanted. The third Ad

The State Medical College in Gal-
veston began the activities of the
twenty-second annual session Friday,
with a matriculation of forty-two stu-
dents. The examinations for the day
were confined to those desiring to re-
move conditions, or to those who had
attended colleges elsewhere and de-
sired advanced standing. This
ing the examinations for
students in the school of pharmacy
was begun. The subjects being
thrashed out today are composition and
English, and Monday will see the
would-be prescription compounders
digging up mathematics and history
from the subconscious regions of their
gray matter. This will complete the
entrance examinations and the regular
work of the year will begin Tuesday,
Oct. 1.
Quite a few of the members of the
upper class arrived on the campus Fri-
day to become familiar with whatever
changes that had been made during
their summer vacation. The fraternity
house of the Alpha »M.u Pi Omega is
being put in shape for the coming
members of the fraternity, and inci-
dentally for the reception of any new
members who may be so fortrufate, or
unfortunate, as the case may be, who
will be offered the honors of the so-
ciety. This is the only house border-
ing on the campus that is owned by
any medical college fraternity, and
there are indescribable scenes worked
out there during the course of the
year.
' From the registrations already
made and from the prospectives known
to be coming, those in charge of the
affairs of the medical college are sure
thaf the twenty-second annual session
will be one of the best in the history
of the institution. The following have
entered their names on the register
since Friday at noon:

(Copyright, 1912, De Forest Porter.)
Back to the land, back to the land.
That refrain had been ringing in my
ears all through the long hot days of
the hottest May we had ever known.
Day after day, when I was about my
duties in a big store, I would try to
forget its stifling” atmosphere and the
incessant clamor of the great human
beehive.
Like a mirage in the desert would
come before my weary eyes visions of
fresh green fields, the cool darkness of
pine groves, the glint of blue waters.
Instead of the clatter of the store, I
heard the ripple of murmuring brooks
and the songs of birds, for I was coun-
try bred.
Ten years before the lure of the city
had drawn me into its vortex, and
since that day I had been engaged in
the city. But I often dreamed of a
real home, out in the country, where I
could till my own fields, fish in the
deep, cool places of the mountain
brooks and tramp over the frosty au-
tumn fields with a gun on my shoul-
der and a faithful dog at my heels.
One night Mrs. John and I sat out on
the fire escape of our three-room flat,
trying to think we were cooling off.
It had been a trying day and mJ heart
yearned for the green fields of my
homeland. So I told Mrs. John of my
dream, and to my surprise, it met with
I her instant approval. “We must make
I that dream come true,” she said, “but
where can we find such a paradise?”
I could only affirm that such places
qxist and can be found if we
know where to look for them.
“We might visit all the real estate
offices and make inquiries, but that
would take too long,” said Mrs. John.
“We must find some quicker way, be-
cause if we are going this year, we
must go soon, to start our farm work
before ihe summer sets in.”
Her enthusiasm was somewhat dis-
concerting, for, much as I desired to
make the change, the thought of re-
linquishing a good, sure salary is a
fearsome one. But we had lived fru-
gally and saved a tidy sum.
