Saturday's Pally.
The Injunction suit brought
against the city by J. P. Crouch, J.
Perry Burrus et al, to restrain the
city from UBlng the waterworks
fia.iitls for the purpose of 'extending
the electric light plant fur commer-
cial lights, which was mentioned In
yesterday's Courier a* be Inn tried
before Judge B. L. Junes of Sher-
man, was terminated last night, by
the motion asking that the Injunc-
tion be dissolved being granted \
Judge Jones In rendering his de-
cision, dissolving the injunction
Stated that the city had a right to
utilize the surplus electrical power
in providing commercial lights.
J. W. Webb, L. W. May hew and
W. A. Smart were interevenors
in the suit, nsking that. If
there was a surplus in the water-
works fund, that it be applied in
extending the water mains to fur-
nish them with city water. The Mc-
Kinney Electric Light company was
iutervenor also. claiming that the
j city had granted them a franchise
and had no right to destroy that by
entering into a contract, taxing
property owners to fulllli it.
Upon the above issues Judge
Jones stated that the claim of
Messrs. Mayhew, Webb and Smart
that they had been brought into the
| city on a pror.ise of obtaining water
| and lights, was not established and
' that the franchise to the McKinney
Electric Li#lit company was not
, exclusive.
The proceedings created consider-
j able interest, many citizens being
! present to bear the evidence anil ar-
! gumenu.
| The case Is set for trial in DIs-
] trift court June 7th when it will be
tried oti Us merits.

A Sure Sign.
How do I know It is springtime,
Me in the city Immured.
Where never a tree casts a shadow.
Where never the song of a bird,
Ults loud of the cool, shady forest?
Of rushes the winds toss and
swing?
How do I, mured In the city,
Know that the season is spring?
How do 1 know It Is springtime.
Me in my day to and fro
Where never a tree bursts In blos-
soms,
And never sweet rose-petals blow?
This calling the turn on the season
is truly as simple as play;
1 aaw. and that's how I know It,

Oxyrhyncus, whose ancient ttionMs*-

fragment of a sit|);>ofeT| inst
which is now in Queea's Gall«0 .

It Is a tiny scrap of vellum, per-
forated by worms and yellowed hy
sixteen centuries, but the writing «
perfectly legible. It Is writton in
Greek characters, which are alttKwa
microscopically minute, with st-ar~
let initials. There are about
words.
It is certainly no part of any ex-
tant gospel, tint Its theological value
must be left to theologians. It be-
gins in the middle of a speech, .te-
stis and hlu disciples have entered
the temple and met. a I'lmrisee.
who rebukes them for omiltlngc
some ceremony of ablution.
Jesus asks the Pharisee what ttie
latter has done to Comply wrM.- rhe
ceremonial. The Pharisee's reply
minutely describes the process otf
purification of which no previous
authority has given the details.
Then follows a powerful, elo-
quent'denunciation by Jesus of n enB
outward purification. He said HuU
he ami bis disciples have been f u~
rifled by the waters of fife. There
Is also a mention "f a hitherto un-
known part of the temple called the
Hegnuterian, or placu of puriftea-
tlon.
Theological circles are greally
Intercsfed In the discovery, which
promises a sensation equal to that
created by the Logia of Christ.
In Memory of N. A. Linear.
In response to a special call of
the pastor, the session of the Cum-
berland Presbyterian church, Mc-
Kinney, Texas, met May Hth. ISO®,
and the following report of the
committee appointed for the special
work, was adopted.
The Silent Reaper has again in-
vaded our congregation and eut
down In the midst of health and ttee
hour of his usefulness our beloved
Brother and Elder N. A. Btiriuwr,
who departed this life on the 12tti
day of May 190i5. The death of
friends and loved ones always etmwas
with a shock, but It is peculiarly e
in the death of Brother Bontar um
the summons calling him to h)
reward, came suddenly and without
warning, but as a good and faithful
servant he was not found want
but ready for the Master's call.
His dally walk and conversation
marked lilni an humble and conm-
crated Christian and emphasizes the
admonition of our Blessed Master.
"Therefore be ye also ready" and
also the comforting words of tins
psalmist. "Precious In the sight of
the Lord Is the death of his saint*."
Therefore resolved. That In Mr
death the session has lost a faithful
and efficient member and counselor
eve. thoughtful and considerate of
the best interests of the church und
always ready to do his duty, and we
mourn his departure from our
midst.
2nd. Resolved that we tender to
his bereaved and sorrowing mother,
wife und children our sincere sym-
pathy and condolence and prayerful-
ly commend them to the care of Itlm
who alone can comfort aud uphold
In such an hour of bereavement..
That the clerk be Instructed to fur-
nish the aged mother and fnmity of
our deceased brother, a copy of
these resolutions, that a copy t o
recorded In the session minutes and
also furnish the city papers with
request that they publish the same.
