Wright. The two met and enjoyed a
few moments' conversation before Dr.
Ballard left over the Frisco.

ISTKRIOR OF POWER HOl SE HIU hXTKHl'RISE MIXING CO.
The big new machinery which will be installed will be operated by el-
ectricity generated at the company's power plant located on Grimes
Creek. 5S00 feet distant by the power line. This power plant consists of
a power house and dynamo and all necessary switchboard attachments
of sufficient capacity to operate the mill saw mill nnd furnish ail neces-
sary lights etc. The power plant Is operated by water from Grimes
Creek in a ditch two miles long with a fall of 147 feet and will yield H00
horse power If necessary. The water for millng purposes is secured
from the water right conveying the entire water of Charlotte Gulch Creek
ranging from one hundred inches at its lowest stage to several hundred
inches in the spring months. There are two of these ditches 150 de-
grees vertically apart the lower one of which brings the water con-
siderably higher than the top of the hill.
THE MOSQUITO HAS
ARRIVED RATHER EARLY.
A. good friend of the Bulletin sug-
gests that in our supreme effort to
land big things we are this spring
forgetting that the mosquito Is our
most pestiferous enenijv and that
while our attention is directed else-
where this pest is getting a firm hold
in the city. Last year Brownwood
people were on the alert and the mos-
quito gave but little annoyance but it
could be different this year. Would" it
not be wise to have a mosquito killing
early In the season?

It Was Good Advice.
A wildly turbulent peasant was once
a witness In n trial before Chief-Baron
O'Grady. The counsel after pestering
him for some time put a question to
him which reflected on the witness'
character.
"If ye ax me that again 111 give ye a
kick In the gob!" was the answer.
The counsel appealed lo ihe court
stating tliat an answer was necessary
to his client's case ending up with
the query. "What would your lordship
advise mo to do?"
"If you arc resolved to repeat the
question" replied the court "I'd advise
you to move a little from the wit-
ness." The reputation qf the music and ex-
pression departments will be main-
tained. Come and see Monday and
Tuesday night at Howard Payne
chapel.

FOR SAX A.VGEM) TEA 31.
In Thursday's ball game between
San Angelo and Ballinger the San
Angelo boys won by the clever work
of the Brownwood boys playing on
their team this week. The San Ange-
lo Press-News has the following to
say of the game:
"Westmoreland began It in the first
inning when with two men on the
bases he lifted the ball over the cen
ter fielder for three bags scoring Rob
inson and Ogden. And the seventh was
the lucky one for the Blues. Robin-
son knocked a little lly which the
second baseman gathered ip. Staten
came up and placed a nice little hit
in right garden and Mason presented
Ogden with a pass to first Westmore-
land drove one to short that Dupree
couldn't handle which filled tho bags.
Standifer hit to third and Baker play-
ed with It long enough to let Staten
score. Miller went out on a foul to
the catcher Brwin hitto right field
Hancock helped the thing along with
another error on which Ogden and
Westmoreland came In. Wills hit safe
and brought Standlfer home. Jack-
son went out from short to first but
San Angelo was all to the good."

CLEVER ART FORGERS
They
Flood the Markets Abroad:
With Their Wares.
PARIS THE CLEARING HOUSE.
Tho French Capital Is the ChreV Mart
For the Disposal of Imitation An-
tiques Italy Leads In the Production
of the Spurious Articles.
Italy has always been the classic soil

ments Holland and Paris run her close.
Vienna has a specialty for rock crys-
tal and thirteenth century gold work
Florence and Lucca for fourteenth
century armor London Imitates the

mascus swords Dresden sculptured
Ivories Alx-la-Chapelle pewter plate

lains Odessa tiaras and nntique Jew-
elry -while Paris is the chief mart and
clearing house for all these products.
Italian bronze statuettes now so
much sought are turned jout with dex-
terity and taste In Tuscany. It is said
that it was from one of these foun-
dries there issued the group of virtue
oppressing vice assigned to Glan Bo-
logna which Is now the choice treas-
ure of a celebrated French collection.
Switzerland makes a specialty of Louis
XV. repousse work.
As for renaissance and mediaeval
jewelry hardly a bit Is real except
what is in museums. It Is not to be
bought In the disturbed epochs that
followed the renaissance precious
stones were broken from their set-
tings and sold to meet urgent needs.
Tho same need for extreme diffidence
applies to the pretty bibelots of the
eighteenth century watches chate-
laines bonbonnleres. Of modern fabri-
cation; too la the enameled jewelry of
the sixteenth century. Vienna turns It
out to perfection. And so cunning are
the makers that for example they
take care that the ring on which a
locket Is suspended should show signs
of friction well aware that the buyer
who thinks himself cute will look for
this Indication. "
As for the peasant Jewelry now so
much bought and sought In Florence
on the old bridge and elsewhere the
genuine is long ago exhausted for
after all peasants own but a limited
stock. It all consists of clever copies
or more often tasteful combinations of
old designs. The stones too despite
their fine designations are rafvly any-
thing else but those marvclously clev- .
er tinted rock crystals so Ingeniously
made in Switzerland and sold by the '
tou if desired.
Venice is the great depot for ebony
inlaid with ivory and cabinets incrust-
cd with tortoise shell once Its glory
nnd now in their decadence are still
the joy of traveling Americans on the
lookout for bargains. Buy If the ab- i
Ject pleases you but do not when you
pay your dollars Imagine you are ex-
changing new lamps for old As for
old clocks grandfather or other there
is not one genuine In a hundred. Ware
Ivories! They arc generally bone or.
worse still celluloid aged by the help
of tobacco or of that invaluable band-
maiden licorice Juice.
Nor does even glass defy the artif
icer.
In the Museum of .St. Germain
can be seen Roman goblets their out-. wUn tno flbera of gampl and some
sides Incrusted with dirt whose Iri- other shrubs. The fibers ore first torn
descence bas been obtained by fishjnpart made cleaned and scraped-.
scales uscu upuu mirir ouriuce. poun.-
times real bits of iridescent glass film
arc transferred upon a modern frame-
work. Cologne turns out lachrymatory
vases by the gross not even troubling
to copy the old shapes but using the
long narrow bottles In which cheap
sweets are sold. These are burled In
dung after being smeared with some
concoction of which the secret Is
guarded and in a little time they issue
from retirement patinated and irides-
cent Old German and Bohemian glass
is also excellently copied in Hamburg
and Paris. Venice too has not for-
gotten Its traditions and turns out its
own old wares.
Sevres and Dresden innocently help-
ed the counterfeiter by selling their
not yet decorated pieces if imperfect
for a trifle. On this genuine ground
the forger worked with ease. This
traffic has been stopped. Still the
forger knows no obstacles or over-
comes them nnd false Sevres and
Dresden are supplied by all dealers
and the purchaser rarely has tho mi
nute knowledge that will save him. In
the eighteenth century oriental porce-
lains were openly made in England
and Holland nnd sent to China for
decoration when they returned as real
China porcelain or the reverse proc-
ess obtained. The porcelain was made
in China and decorated In what was
presumed to be the Chinese style In
Europe. Paris at the present moment
makes and exports old China porce-
lain and many a tourist who buy3 a
find at Hongkong or Shanghai merely
brings back coals to Newcastle.. Rbo-
dlan plates are made near Paris In ab
solute perfection. Except as a matter
of sentiment there is no need to seek
the old. Be cautious too In buying
Greco-Roman pottery. It is mostly
made at Naples.
Most of the genuine things were
snapped up long ago or else are owned
by museums or by tho heirs of those
for whom they were made and who do
not need to part with them: London

MILITARY SYSTEM..
The Way Germany Handles Her Re-
serves In Case of War.
Nobody who has visited Germany
can fail to have been struck by the
large official signboards at the entry
to each town or village. These con-
tain full Information as to exactly
which official in the community to ap-
ply to should the magic word "mobi-
lize" be spoken.
Wherever the German reservist may.-
chance to be when the order to mobi-
lize Is given assuming of course
that be is not out of the country he-
has only got to ask the first Inhabitant
or walk to the end of the village and
look at the directions on the signboard-
to find out his own particular place In
the military scheme. He will see that
he must go to Herr Schmidt at 40
Scbutzen street Herr Schmidt will
tell him exactly In which town he has
to go In order to rejoin his own unit
and what is still more Important will
give blm the money and the railway
pass to take him there.
Arrived at bis destination he will-
find his uniform arms a'nd accouter-
ments piled neatly In a heap with a
label bearing his name and regimental
number on the top of the heap. lie
has only to put it on and takp his-
place among the comrades with whom
be did bis military service some years
ago.

THE BASQUES.
An Interesting People Who Are Puz-
zle Among Nations.
The Basq.se provinces Us Is lie-
north of Spain and although far cesv-
tmxiea staieats hare tried to trace
real origts of the people and And a key
to their language they hare iaOet t.
4o so.
All other kaewa tongues spokes by-
the sons of soea have been sbowa t.
possess a cosmos origin traceable ta-
ttle Arabic and Semitic. Bat the
Basque language has entirely resisted
the philologist In some aspects tlx
vernacular shows traces of a Chinese-
admixture. In others It Is clear that:
North American Indian terms are na-
tive to it It also shows traces of-
barbaric languages spoken on the east
coast of Africa.
The people themselves bear physi-
ological trait 8 found in those who.
speak the said tongues. The native-
name of Basqueland is Eskuara. and
their motto is "Iruracbat" or "Three-
In One." Nor Is their political strue-
ture anything like that of any known
political body though they belong of
course to Spain. Each Basque prov-
ince Is governed by a parliament com-
posed of representatives selected
partly by election partly by lot
among the householders of each coun-
try parish or town. Their laws are es-
conceIvcd on no known code eUher
of ancIent or medIaeval dmes.

Paper Which Is Waterproof.
In Japan there Is a paper made which
Is lmnervlous to water belnc made of
t bam5oo flbera and eucalvntns mixed
i boiled in ft weak Ive and thomntrhlv
washed in water after which they are-
beaten and then mixed with certain
roots made into a viscous state. A
solution containing resin eaoutchouo
nnd camphor is also added. A sort o
pulp is thus formed and then made-
into sheets which are run through a
calendering machine heated to various
temperatures. The result Is that a
paper is produced which Is exceedingly
tough light and which may be washed;
The Japanese use it for leather Imita-
tions and India rubber. Pathflndec.
Northern Australia.
Australia's huge northern territory
has a tropical almost an equatorial
climate and the beat Is very enervat-
ing to Europeans. Its capital. Pal-
mers ton contains more Chinese than
Caucasians. The former are the rul-
ing race and the employers; the whites
are the servile and the employed.
Large herds of buffaloes roam about
the silent plains of this enormous ter-
ritory which would be a sportsman's
paradise but for the wild natives who

loes. His Marathon Record..
