The managers of the Collin Count}'

the help of Collin County's enterprising
farmers the biggest Fair ever held here
wiJI take place this Fall.
The watermelon market has taken

A few days ago two Collin County
farmers, giving the name of Meyers and
Beall. mortgaged their crops in this
county to Ed Beall, of Van Alstyne, who
very soon found out that tf he didn't take
some steps in the premises pretty soon
the wagon and other articles, to the
amount of $lfio, which he had let them
have on the crop would be lost, as there
was already a mortgage of S"2-o executed
on it in favor of llogue Kauf-
man, of Melissa. Simultaneously
with the discovery that the crop
had been mortgaged, came the informa-
tion that they had bought two mules,
valued it from a negro, giving liini
their note the day before they jjot the
wagons, etc.. from Beall and that they
had hitched the mules up and had driven
oil" in the direction ot Sherman. On the
same breeze, almost, came the informa-
tion that they had dug into a store
in McKinney for Sbi">. Deputy Sheriffs
Brady, of this, and Andrews, ot Grayson
County, were notified of the matter and at
once left in pursuit Thev lost sight of
them at Sheruian, but caught up again
with the trail at Gainesville, at which
place they found that they were two days
behind the men. Their line of procedure
was lip through the northern part of
Cooke County. The officers telegraphed
to Ed Beall, at Van Alstyne, that the men
were in all probability heading for Caddo.
I. T. Mr. Beall lost no time in telegraph-
ing to the Indian police at Caddo, to ap
prchend the parlies. In les than a day
a telegram was received from Caddo, an
nouncing the fact that the men had been
arrested and the property recovered
The police sent a detachment of their
men with the prisoners to Van Alstyne.
where they were identified us the men.
The property was turned over to the
owners and the men taken back to Caddo,
from which place they will lie sent to Ft.
Smith lor trial. It seems that they have
gotten themselves into the nine hole by
their desire to see how far they could run
their face.

Jim Do well's long lost pocket book has
been found. On Monday evening last,
while re-stacking lumber in Xenney's
yard, Jonah Vainer found the book,
wrapped in an old Dallas Herald and
stuck in under a pile « f lumber. The
book was m no ways dam iged other than
the band around it had been cut in two.
Nothing was missing from its contents,
which consisted ot notes principally. No
clew, whatever, is had as to who the
thief could be. Mr. Do well has been put
to nuuh expense in this matter, and
while we regret that this is the case, we
are glad that he has recovered his papers
in irood condition.
R. M. Board.
Is selling a large amount of goods to
the people in Collin County. He is hand-
ling now a new supply of goods. Call in
to see him. He is the farmer's merchant.
Rev. John R. Allen delivered an ad-
dress before the teachers of the Normal
School on Friday night last. Owing to
the fact that it was not generally known
where the lecture would be given, only a
small number were in attendance. Those
present appreciated the reverend gentle-
man's address very much. The McKinney
Literary Society hope to get Rev. Allen
to deliver a lecture before their Society
at an early day.
Edgar, son of Capt. R. M. Board, hap-
pened to what came near proving a very
serious accident on Thursday evening
last. While he and some of his compan-
ions were trying to ride a calf, the calf
threw its head up and struck Edgar just
over the left eye, cutting a horrible ga-h,
rendering the boy insensible for some
t:me. Dr. McCarty was called and dressed
the wound. We are glad to see him up
and around.
Don't forget that E. N. McAulav & Bro.
carries the best stock of Drugs, Chemi-
cals, etc.. to be found in the city. New
stock of Wall Paper just received.
The Methodist congregation at this
place are having their building renovated.

Church. Preaching in the morning and
at night. Sunday School in the evening
at 5 o'clock. The Old School Church will
have Sunday School in the morning.
A mare belonging to Aleck Foreman,

Todd Warden's Circus.
A drunken tonsil was in town Saturday
and came as near running things his own
way as has been done tor a long time,
lie had been boisterous all day, and
Marshal Todd Warden proceeded to c:dl
time on the said tough about 7 o'clock
that evening. He was too much for the
marshal, and, thinking to quiet him a
little, Todd hit him over the head with
his revolver. He wouldn't beef at nil. so
Todd had to call in Rich Ramho. Scott
Phillips, John Davis and several others
to help land him in the coolor. It was
as much as these gentlemen could do to
get him to the calaboose, and when they
did get him there they couldn't get away
troni him. He caught John Davis by the
beard and was beginning to harvest the
same, when Mr. Davis came the choking
act on the tough. This done him. He
let go and laid down limber as a dish
rag inside the whitewashed halls of the
city's sweat-box. A good laugh was had
at Deputy Ceorge Barrett. George's
heart-string was touched, and he wanted
to be charitable towards the fellow, so lie
got a nice bucket of water and set inside
the boose door. While locking the door.
George and the crowd standing around
was surprised at a sudden outpouring: of
cool water, which hit George square on
his manly shoulders. The tough wa?
showing his gratitude for the favor re-
throwing the water through the transom.
Attempted Suicide.
A man named Baecus attempted to
commit suicide on Monday evening last,
by cutting his throat. H Idle standing
at the head of the stairs in the south hall
ol the court house, he snatched a knife
from a bystander :.nd. quick as a flash,
drew the blade across his throat, culling
an ugly gash several inches long, but not
quite dee]) enough to sever the jugular
Vein. He was bleeding profusely when he
was removed into Assessor MeLarry's
otlice, where the doctors proceeded to
dress the wound. lie is, at this writing,
Tuesday morning, resting seemingly very
easy, iu the northwest room of the court
house, up stairs. He had been adjudged
insane in the County Court that morning
and was to have been taken to the asvlum
that evening. This, it seems, worried
liini to such an extent that he tried to
rake his own life.
Pretty Women.
All women look attractive when their color
and complexion is clear. If your skin is sallow
eyes dull, you are hilions. secure a box of Wil-
liams' Australian Herb Pills, take as directed,
and the feeling of languor will leave you, your
eyes brighten, anil you are ano.her woman.

While reading the Gazettk this week
don't fail to examine the advei tiseinents
and see what these enterprising men have
to say tor themselves. It will save you
money to watch these "ads" and buy
your goods while the markets tire down.
HE WAS HOPPING
Mad because his name was spcli d
wrong in that Printing he ordered from
St. Louis and Galveston. Better to have
given the job to Bomar, and (lie error
would not have occurred.
Call and have your measure taken for a
nice pair ot boots or shoes at R. L.
Parker's. First-class work and a neat tit
always guaranteed. Shop north side

The Collin Gua'ds will give an enter-
tainment Monday night, to raise the
necessary funds to defray their camping
expenses while at Galveston. Let all our
citizens turn out and help the boys in a
liberal manner.
R. 31. Board certainly deserves a good
patronage from the farmers of Collin
County. He sells to them on a credit
when they so desire, and is very lenient
with them if th?v are not able to come up
with the cash when their notes are due.
We are glad to see the people giving Mr.
Board such a good patronage.
To-night the ladies of the Methodist
Church will give their regular weekly
festival at the College, at which time the
teachers ot the Normal School will give
an entertainment also. The Collin Guards
will be on hand and drill. A grand time
is anticipated. Let everybody turn out
and help make the occasion a success.
HE GOT LEFT
Because he sent abroad for a lot of Job
Printing, when he could have obtained
better work and as good prices at
Bomar's.
The McKinney, Grapevine, and Fort
Worth extension of the Missouri Pacific
is looked upon by railroad men as a cer-
tainty. The men who hold these opinions
give good reasons for the faith that is in
them.—[Fort Worth Gazette.
Five splendid words "attend to your
own business," are now being dealt out
pretty lively, and we don't blame those
who are uiakiusr use of them either.
J. T. Hunn was declared insane in the

The guns consigned to the Collin
Guards arrived Friday. They (the guns)
look very much as if they might have
been used to build rail fences or punch
steers with. The Guards here do not
like to be put off with any such guns.
Quite a lively row took place at
Farmersville. Saturday, in which a man
named Howell was spatted two times
in the head with beer glasses. Otherwise
than being cut in the head, he was not
much hurt. Playing billiards and drink-
ing whisky was the cause.

Some men think it smart and make a
joke of saying so and so; promising
faithfully to do a certain thing and then
go right square back on their word. This
may be sham, it may be shrewd, it may
be line management, but we have but
one name for it, one definition, and that
is downright rascality.

Our Blue Ridge reporter says they

munity for the past six years, delivered
his farewell address last week; that he
has gone to Tennessee to visit relatives;
that the little babe of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff
Ilildreth died on the 15th, and that it was
a sad blow tor the parents to haye to
part from ther little darling; that some
