The largest real state transfer
ever known in Grayson county was
closed and given to the county clerk
for record to-day.
In it H. B Sanborn transferred to
the Sanborn Land and cattle com-
pany a corporation organized undet
the laws of Missouri, a vast tract of
land comprising 10,550 acres to-
gether with all live stock and im-
provements! thereon, the considera-
tron therefdre being $400,000.
It is understood it is a Miss"uri
syndicate composed of Kansas City
capitalists, among them several
prominent Germans. The much
talked of German colony is now in a
fair shape to be realized. The near-
est place this tract approaches to the
city is seven and a half miles and it
a colony is established it is quite
likely that i^ will not be over nine
miles from Sherman.
The deal has been pending for
some time and the news that it has
been fully settled will be received
with delight by the people interested
in the development of Grayson coun-
ty.—Sherman Register.

A WILD WOMAN
A Perfectly Healthy People.
The Parsees are sun worshipers,
and it is an interesting sight to see
throngs of thera oh the sh^re of the
bay as the sun rises, apparently from
the sea, performing the simple rites
of their religion, the fluttering robes
shovving their fine figures to the best
advantage as the day begitisl Their
religious practices are simple in the
extreme, consisting inarn'y ln strict
dietary rules and personal cleanli-
ness. 4 -
The rigid observance of sanitary
laws produces the natural result of
perfect health among the adults,
large families of active, healthy
children and .immense numbers of
old men, grai-bearded,white haired,
but erect arid princely in their gait
and attitude! despite the naturally
enervating character ot the tropical
climate.—C6r. Washington Star.

Is Captured Near Georgetown, but Frees
Herself and Escapes.
J. T. Martin, a young farmer liv-
ing in the Rhea neighborhood near
Georgetown, Texas, had an exciting
encounter Thursday, June 30, with
the mysterious wild woman who has
been terrorizing the people of this
vicinity tor the past three weeks.
Martin lives in the St. Gabriel rtVer
bottoms, and after a day's labor in
his cotton field started homeward.
He was crossing a stretch of dense
woodland, near the river when he
suddenly came upon the -strange
creature. The woman was entirely
nude and was down on all tours
greedily devouring the tender grass
and cactus buds.
Martin watched her from behind
a small clump of bushes for a few
minutes and finally decided to at-
tempt her capture. He had a stout
twine string in his pockct with
which he expected to bind her hands
securely. Having laid his plans he
crept stealthily behind the woman
and made a spring and grabbed her
by the foot. The wild creature
upon being taken by surprise, went
into a terrible rage and fought like a
demon. According to Martin's
story the battle was a long and terri-
ble one while it lasted. He is here
to-day and bears deep wounds on his
tace and arms, which he claims were
caused by the woman's teeth an<J,
finger nails. She made no outcry
during the encounter, and after tree-
ing herself darted into the ttjick uii-
derbrush.
Martin's description of the woman
tallies with that given by the various
reliable citizens of this place who
saw her in the same neighborhood
last week. She is of splendid form,
about nineteen years ot age, and has
long raven black hair which is badly
tangled. There are a number of
spacious c;iverns along the St. Gab-
riel river, and it is believed the
woman makes her home in one of
these.
V\ hen seen by William Sellers
and another boy last Saturday she
was in the woods feeding on grass.
The people here are greatly excited
over the woman. There is no
young girl missing in this county
and whence this strange wild woman
came is a mystery. A force of men
is being organized in the Rhea
neighborhood to hunt her down and
place her in the insane asylum.

Sunday last was a busy day with
the soldier boys and their friends in
Denison. It was the date ot their
leaving tor the State Encampment
at Austin and as there werebefwleen
seventy- fiye and one hundred of
them, together with all their camp
equipment, arms etc., it was no
small matter to get off in good
shape. The Missouri Kansas and

it followed the regular south bound

Littie Willie Had an Intense Anxiety
About All Things.
One day 1 sat in a car seat on the
Saugus branch ot the Eastern rbad
behind a pale careworn lady, who
was talking to a little boy from Bos-
ton to Maiden. As the little boy
was of a very inquiring mind and
everything seemed to attract his at-
tention, I could not help listening to
some ot the questions.
"What is that Auntie?" the little
boy commenced, pointing to a stack
of hay on the marsh.
"Oh, that's hay, dear," answered
the careworn lady.
"What is hay, auntie?"
"Why, hay is hay, dear."
"But what is it made ot?" ,
"Why, hay is made of dirt and
water and air."
"Who makes it?"
"God makes it dear."
"Does he make it in the day time
or in the night?"
"In both dear."
"And Sundays?"
"Yes, all the time."
"Ain't it wicked to make hay on
Sunday, auntie?"
"Oh, I don't know. I'd keep
still, Willie, that's a dear. Auntie
is tired."
After remaining quiet a moment
little Willie broke out:
"Where do stars come from
auntie ?"
"I don't know; nobody knows."
"Did the moon lay 'em?"
"Yes, I guess so," replied the
wicked ladv. =
"Can the moon lay eggs, too?"
"I suppose so. Don't bother
me.''
Another short silence, when Wil-
lie broke out:
"Benny says' oxins is an owl,
auntie. Is they ?"
"Oh, perhaps so."
"I think a whale could lay eggs—
don't you, auntie?"
Oh, yes—I guess so," said the
shameless woman.
"Did you ever see a whale on his
nest?"
"Oh, I guess so;"
"Where?"
"I mean 110. Willie, you must
be quiet; I'm getting crazy,"
"What makes you crazy, auntie?"
"Oh,dear! you ask so many ques-
tions,"
"Did ryou ever see a fly eat
sugar?"
"Yes, dear."
"Where?"
"Willie, sit down on the'seat and
be still or I'll shake you. Now not
another wofd,"
And the lady pointed her finger
sharply at the little boy, as if she
were going to stick it through him.
If she had hfign a wicked woman she
would have sworr?. There are

"HELD IX TRl'ST.
"Heltl in Trust," a novel by Belle Hunt.
Lone Star Publishing Company, New
York. The author of "Held in Trust" is
not unknown to the readeis of the Ga-
zette, !$s it was in its columns that her
work ffrst attracted attention. Her New
Orleans letters were widely read and
much jiked. Since then she has written
for several periodicals letters, essays, short
stories and poems, and has published a
volume of her poetic work.
The work under consideration is a
story of early irontier life in Texas, and
introduces by way ot contrast the luxuri-
ous elegance of southern life in ante-
bellum dafys. The trust is four children
orphaned'by the cruel Indian, and bereft
ot their|patrimony by the not less cruel
white man.
The frontier in the story is not far from
Decatur, and the frontier heroes Cook,
Small Foot and William Houston, the
father, are good specimens of the men
who, in the vanguard of civilization,
sought new lan^fs, courting rather than
avoiding dangeij.
The attack, the fight, and the rescue of
the children f>y Roland is graphically
told
The author shows familiarity with
southern home lite, and a thorough ap-
preciation of the negro character; neith-
er does she put Anglo-Saxon dialect into
the mouths of the colored mammy, the
nurse or the boys.
It is true that at times she falls into
provincialism, such as "like" for "as,"
and introduces oy-plays that seem more
as an adjunct than an integral part. For
example, much of what pertains to Elinos
and to Ocklohooma, the Indian girl.
That the novel has faults is not singu-
lar—the perfect form of expressing the
feelings of men is yet, to be discovered—
but to this must be granted that which
the novel is intended to do. It is not
made a medium of instruction or to point
a moral. People read novels to be divert-
ed, and their mission is well discharged
when, as "Held in, Trust," they enable
the readers to get away from the dreary,
wearying, common-place things of life.
The old story of love is here told, and
humanely interests as it will always. At
the close the reader is glad that happy
marriage and restored heritage crowns
the lives ot Walsie and Kate.-—Fort
Worth Gazette.

A syndicate representing men of
influence and money in both Austria
and tbe-Uriited States, is making ar-
rangements to produce, in Chicago
during the World's Fair the famed
Passion Play exactly as it has been
given for centuries, at intervals of
ten years, by the people of Ober
Ammergau, Bavaria. The syndi-
cate is incorporated as "The Origi-
nal Ober-Ammergau Passion Play
Association," with capital stock of
$Soo,ooo. It is reported to be the
intention to present the Passion Play
in Chicago with the same cast and
same costumes as were employed at
the preaerftation at Ober-Ammergau
in 1890.
In June morg"than 90,000 people
or a daily average of 3,100, visited
the World's Fair grounds and paid
35 cents each to see the sights.
The largest attendance on any <?ne
day was 12,038 on May 29, that is
on Sunday. ! ■

The generators that George Wes-
tinghouse is building to furnish elec-
tricity tor the 93,000 incandescent
lamps at the World's Fair are to be
the largest in the world. One ol

The ordinary generator supplies but
1,300 lamps.
In a country like ours every citi-
zen is bound to be interested, more
or less, in politics. He is a sover-
eign, whose scepter is the ballot.
An intelligent acquaintance with
public men and measure^ is demand-
ed of him, as statecraft ik ot a king.
Ignorance is a disgrace; indifference
is the unpardonable political sin.
The pulpit should emphasize the
supreme truth. 'Tis not the func-
tion of the church to dictate regard-
ing specific men and measures, but
it ought to insist that the people
shall always and everywhere be in^-
telligent enough and interested
enough to join one party or anothier,
and vote early—it not often. VVhy
should a man's politics and his reli-
gion be like a divorced couple—un-
married ?
The republican platform favors
Irish home rule. If;it had an ex-
r
istence over there it would favor a
tory force bill. 4
Gresham no doubt has a bee in
his bonnet, but its buzzing is not of
sufficient volume to persuade him to
monkey with the people's party.
