Next Week.
The proprietor editor and busi
ness manager of The Bulletin toJ
day steps down and out turning
over The Bulletin for a week to
the Woman's Parsonage and Home
Mission Society who will have en
i .1
lire unarga 01 me paper lor one
week. They authorize us to say
that it will be a twelve page paper
failed from beginning to end with
the best articles the ladies can pre
pare and that the ordinary edition
of the paper will appear very ordi
nary when compared with the only
paper the ladies ever published in
Brownwood. The business man-
agers have already been at work
and are meeting with encouraging
success. The merchants. profes-
sional men clerks and everybody
they come across see that a write-
up by the ladies will be a big
thing: No paper ever published
here will attract so much attention
and the man whose business is not
represented in it will be regarded
as a back number. If the ladies
should overlook you hunt them
up and insist upon having some
space.
The editorial department will
be in charge of Mrs. C.. H. Jenkins
who will have the help of Mrs. J.
L. Ellis local editor; Mrs. C. E.
Brown editorial paragraph er; Mrs
J. E. Fain and Mrs. J. M. Clower
exchange editors; and Misses Wil-
lie and May Jenkins society edi-
tors; This brilliant cforps of edi-
tors insures a bright attractive
paper.
We anticipate an unprecedented
success of this issue of The Bul-
letin and will highly enjoy the re-
spite from editorial labors that the
ladies propose to give us.
By all means get a number of
extra copies of next week's paper
and send to your friends abroad.
It will be a good advertisement for
the town and will show the enter-
prise of our ladies.

Brownwood was visited by a very
disastrous conflagration last Satur-
day nigbt a week ago. Almost a
block of the best buildings in the
business portion of the city was
destroyed as were the stocks of
goods of some of that city's leading
merchants. The loss is not known
but will reach up into the thou-
sands of dollars. We sympathize
with Brownwood in this great ca-
lamity but know that with her en-
ergy and pluck she will like Phoe-
nix of old rise from her ashes in
magnificence and splendor. Brady
