Why Pay Rent? You Can Own Your Own home
Just as Easily-as You Now Rent.
There are hundreds of prosperous tenants who read this ad who
pay more than enough rent to own their own homes. I can make it
possible for everyone to own a home, who has only a little money
ahead. 1 can 3e!l you just as good ard pr ditotivo land in Brown
county, Texas, as there is in the state, at $10.00 an acre, and ear
take a cash payment of only $2.00 an acre, giving long time on tin
balance at 8 per cent interest. This has been the best kind of yeai
with many to make a start, ft is too late to move and make a crop
this year, but by making your first payment now and laying your
plans you can get on your new purchase as soon as your crop is
gathered and be ready for the next season. Do not waic until you
have to pay much more. Write me at nee for further particulars,

Cleburne Correspondent Dallas Ndws.
Cleburne, Tex., July 2.—Prop-
erty valued at between ¥300,000
and $100,000 was destroyed b.y
fire this morning iu the Santa Pe
shops at th;s place.
Forty minutes after the flames
were discovered these buildings
built of stone, were in ruins and
every thing they contained was
lost--coach shop, paint shop and
plaining mill. In addition to this
seven passenger coaches were
reduced to ashes.
Tho foreman of the mechanical
department states that he thinks
the fire started ir. the coach shop,
although at this hour ha is not
positive on that point. He also
said that in his opinion the fire
was due to spontaneous combus-
tion.
The buildings were valued at
$75,000 and the machinery Jthey
contained at $150,000. The pas-!
sengiiis (icacne- were worlb from |
$6,000 tu 810,000 apiece. Resides'
the items eriumeiated must be in-
cluded a vast quanity of valua-
ble material and supplies which
also went up in smoke.
The fire was discovered at 1 a.
m. At 1:40 it was under con-
trol, but in that time much more
than a quarter of a million dollars
worth of property had been de-
stroeyd.
The Cleburne fire department
and tho members of the fire-fight-
ing force employed in the shop
responded quickly to the alarm,
and to their good work is due the
savmg of the rip track building
where freight cars are repaired.
This building contained a vast
quanitvof supplies.
SThe loss is covered by insur-
ance. The company holds a
blanket policy on the property,
