COl'RTUOl'SR AT PA11MERTON:
Newly Organised County Starts With
(JHd Financial rruspects.
(From Friday' pally.)
"We- expect to get a courthouse
bulJt this fall at Parmerton" said
W. L. Townsen during a call at the
Dally Panhandle office yesterday.
"Of course we are not going to "build
a big brick or stone courthouse now
because we don't need It We will
build one that will he ample for our
needs and we will not have to bond
the coanty to do It."
Parmerton la the new county seat

ty ef Parmer. Several other sites

wijs'
notably Bovlna and FarweT! were In
the race for the county seat but the
promoters of a town at the Camp-
bell mode farm took advantage of a
division in the ranks of the other
boosters and elected their own site.
"Parmerton is about six miles this
side of Bovlna and six miles west ot
Frio" continued Mr. Townsen. "We
haven't a station there yet but trains
stop there and have made it really
a station for nearly two years on
account f tne Model Farm which
was located there by Professor II.
W. Campbell. W. L. Merefelder nd
myself run the farm now.
"The country In Parmer county. Is
settling up rather slowly yet but the
land has boon sold into the hands of
many small owners and I think it Is
only a question of a short time till
these begin to develop it. Much ot
It is held by farmers up north and
east and If they don't sell again they
will come down or send their boys
down to work It. Just over the line
from our' county In New Mexico the
land has a family on every quarter
section and they are making crops
people will do the same thing or bet-
ter on our side whenever they get to
It." ; .
FATHER GALLED
: WITH A BRICK
(From Frlday'i Dally.)
In an endeavor to find out who is
the rightful defendant and who Is
tho. prosecuting witness. Justice ot
the Peace Holman Is holding court
this afternoon and looking into the
domestic difficulty that occurred on
West Third street Wednesday even-
ing. '
Edmondaon the father-in-law ac
cording to all reports has never ap
proved of his son-ln law Palmer and
tor that reason Palmer and his wife
moved hare from Okalhoma. The
father wrote letters to the daughter
In which he made serious threats
sgalnst his son-ln-low and finally he
he cqrae here to visit his daughter.
He wished it emphatically understood
however that the aon-in-Iaw should
be within hearing distance during
the call. ' So Wednesday afternoon
when bl went to the house on West
Third street be sent a young man
named Clarence Crumbcy into the
house to tell the daughter of bis
presence and to warn the son-in-law
to get far away from the house and
help preserve peace In the family.
Then a Uttle later the father-in-
law Inadvertently carrying a brick
entered the house to talk to his
daughter. The husband who re
turned about the same time shied at
the brick In his guest's hands and
in his temporary excitement he
grabbed a hatchet. Before the dif-
ficulty was over both had used the
batcbet to a certain extent and now
each believes that ho has grounds
for filing a complaint against the
other. .
Tom Llttlejohn and Henry Ken
ning of AHvllle Mo. are here visit-
ing their old neighbor Mr. Benton
east of tewn and buying a bunch

SHOT COYOTE
. Oil TAJLOR STREET
(From Tussdea Dally.)
A few people ln'Amarllo can re-
member when the sharp and discord-
ant yip-yapping of coyotes was a
ttlghtly occurrence too common for
comment here but it is not likely
that ny of them or anyone else will
soon repeat the performance of G.
M.1 Ledford wbo shot a coyote on
Tyler street Saturday morning.
On account of sickness Mr. Led
ford who llvefc on the corner of
Sixth and Tyler got up. some time
after midnight Friday night to come
up town to a restaurant for some
hot coffee. When he stepped out
of tho bouse he caught sight of a full
grown coyote just outside the ard
fence playing with a 'young bird dog.
As soon as he found out what the
animal was lie wont back Into the
house for a gun. When he returned
the wolf was still Just outside the
yard and in the moonlight was in
full view. Mr. Ledford fired once
and missed and then shot again and
missed. He was shielded at the time
by a shadow and the wolf simply
ran out into the street and lay down.
Then Ledford fired again and the
wolf jumped up. ran down the streot
and he saw it crawl uuder the Eakle
barn.
Mr. Ledford then went down town
and as 'he came buck he discovered
the coyote again. This timo also
the wolf took refuge under the barn.
Then Air. Ledford crawled Into a
wagon noar the entrance to the
wolf's home snd waited. In about
half an hour the coyote again ap-
peared and this time taking more
careful aim Ledford brought the
coyote down with a bullet through
the heart. .
The fat carcass of the marauder
showed plainly the rich fare he had
been stealing from west aide poultry
yarda. For months housewives in
the west part of town have benn
missing chickens and several poul-
try owners have been especially
hcafy losars - Only a few tjmes has
the wolf been seen and then It was
hard to tell whether the object was
actually a coyote or simply a dog.
How the coyote chantefl Into towi
and made his home here no one has
yet explained. It is hardly likely
that a grown wild coyote would vol-
untarily take up its habitation In
the town and It is probable that the
wolf Is ono that escaped when a
wbelp. from someone in town and
which has grown up as a city wolf.
LIHIHP UP FOR
STREET PAVING
f;
(From Monday's" Daily.)
In a quiet way a move is now
starting for the paving ' of Polk
street and from the support the
proposition Is already receiving it
seems likely that this much needed
Improvement will be made this fall.
The. plan for paving has not yet
taken definite form and the kind of
paving has not oeen fnerally dis-
cussed. '
Under the ordinance granting the
street railway 'franchise the street
railway company Is to pave between
Its tracks and for two feet on either
side whenever the city paves the
strets through which its lines run.
One of the plans proposed for pav-
ing provides that the city shall pay
for the paving of one. third ot the
streets through which its lines run.
the property owners on each side
will pave tho other fnvo thirds. The
city paves the street crossings so
that its'ehare Is made considerably
larger. On Polk street where the
first paving Is planned the street
railway company would pave. a good
part of th5 city's share all along.
Cost of street paving in Amarlllo
may be higher than in most cities
from which figures are available but
the cost in any event will be small
in comparison with the service ren-
dered. At El Paso bltullthlc pave-
ment which is considered most fa-
vorably by those who have express-
ed themselves here costs $1.37 a
yard. At El Paso rock suitable for
paving is found at short distance
from the city and frolght charges on
that pert of the pavement are com-
paratively small. H is possible that
rock of suitable variety could be
found noar Amaviilo and the cost
similarly reduced. Brick! pavement
which has the greatest durability of
any pavement and which can be re-
paired without the expense of keep-
ing a big plant as la the ca'ie' with
other kinds was figured Inst year

to cost in Amarlllo about $1.75 a

of the necessity for repair and the
expense of keeping It In repair Is not
being favorably considered here
would cost more than either of
these. By any system the burden
of cost would be relatively small
and the value to the city of such an
Improvement cannot be over esti-
mated. P V TEAM!

For Miss Hedrick.
The Albuquerque Evening Cltlien
last Week has the following to say
concerning MIfs Jennie Lee Hedrick
who has been the guest of her sis
ter Mrs. Hearbert Collier In the New
Mexico city for several weeks:
"Miss Jennie Lee Hedrick of Ama
rlllo Texas who has been in thU
city for the past several months as
the gueat of her sister Mrs. R. H.
Collier will leave this evening for
her home. Miss Hedrick is a little
black eyed southerner and during
her brief visit here she made many
friends. In fact she did things to
the hearts of some of tho masculine
members of the youngsters' set and
she has been one of the most pop-
ular members of the 'kid crowd'
during the summer here. Last even
ing some of the members of the
young set gathered at the home of
Mrs. Collier and needles to say their
coming was not announced In ad
vance. It was a genuine surprise
party and Miss Hedrick was given
proof of her popularity. 'In fact she
had gone to spend the evening with
Miss Jean Hubb's and was decoyed
to her sister's home only to find all
the lights aglow and a crowd of her
young friends Waiting to' receive
her. A lively time folowed and the
little Texas girl was given the most
enjoyable evening of her etay in
this city. .
"The young people danced and
played a variety of games in which
appropriate prizes were won. Mrs.
Collier and Mrs. Hubbs saw to It that
the refreshments were not wanting
In quality or quantity. Miss Hed-
rick will take home with her a pleas-
ing impression of Albuquerque and
other tokens more or less sentimental
from the many friends wlUi whom
she passed an enjoyable summer."

D of the Baptist church. Mr. No
lan the pianist has the happy fac-
ulty of apparently forgetting his au-
dience and his surrounding and play-
ing folmself Into the music. In the
rich and varied beauty of the "Poet
and Peasant" overture at the open-
ing of the program he found op-
portunity for the expression of his
Individuality and won immediate
favor with his audience. The light
ind- tuneful "Irish Hearts" and an
(Wgtnal reverie in a gentler strain
were equally as pleasing and selec
tions from "Fantana" and another
original composition were warmly
applauded. Waco Smith has an in-
fection humor that found full play
in the old darky's account of the
'Kentucky Handicap." In the part
nership novelty "Gratitude" he
made a big hit which kept tho au-
dience clamoring for more till he
had sung and impersonated "A Cou

rt o' Mine" and other sketches in
song.
