of J. L. Ware and Williamson,
Blocker & Co, held their annual
grand openings for the display of
millinery goods. All during the
the afternoon the ladies swarmed
the mammoth stores to view the
bright and attractive displays of
spring millinery that had been so
tastily and cleverly arranged.
One cannot imagine a prettier line
of goods than was displayed by the
milliners Wednesday.

The Signal man was shown this
week the most beautiful display of
Easter novelties that ever met his
gaze. The work was done by the
deft hand of Miss Emi Walter-
mire and shows her to be a true
artist. The display consisted of
lilies, miniature paintings, birds,
chicks, brownies, Japs, etc., all
constructed of egg shell, and true
to nature. I venture the assertion
that a more novel or beautiful
Easter display was ne- er exhibited
anywhere.
J. B. Barnett will sell you a top
buggy as low as $60, road wagons
$35, carts $20. This is the place
for bargains in vehicles.

pleasure that I recommend him to
this people as one in every way
worthy of their confidence and pat-
ronage. He graduated with hon-
or at the St. Louis Medical School
and has had one year's experience
as a practitioner, during which
t^me he endeared himself to the
people he served. He is a prince
of good fellows and 1 am glad that
he comes to cast his lot in this the
best of North Texas cities.

It may be considered pretty big
talk to s-peak of an electric car
line being built between Honey
Grove and Bonham, and many
will no doubt screw up the corners
ot their mouths and say "wind"
when the subject is mentioned.
Nevertheless, a gentleman told me
this week that such a project is
now agitating the minds of people
who mean business, and that he
was authorized to feel around and
see how the people would treat a
proposition to this effect. He is
very enthusiastic on the subject,
and believes the scheme to be fea-
sible. It would certainly prove a
great convenience and of course
everybody would hail with delight
such an enterprise.

The Ladonia Affair.
The Ladonia sensation has been
so widely discussed that it is hard-
ly necessary for the Signal to re-
peat what every man woman and
child in this section has heard a
hundred times over during the
past week, but for the benefit of
readers living in other sections,
the following short account is pub-
lished.
For several months past Dr. R.
E. Hancock has made his home at
Ladonia and many claim that his
chief business was to furnish
prescriptions to all who desired to
purchase whiskey. Some two
weeks since the ladies of the com-
munity, believing strongly in the
efficacy of prayer, called upon the
doctor and prayed long and fer-
vently that he might see the error
of his work and renounce his evil
ways. The prayers seemed to do
no more good than the supplica-
tions of the prophets of Baal, as,
it is stated, the doctor went ahead
dishing out prescriptions at so
much a dish, and his business
grew to land-office proportions.
Prayer having failed to reach
the case the ladies decided to try
other means, and Friday evening
they administered a severe cow-
hiding to the physician. was
in the depot preparatory to leav-
ing for Bonham on a visit when
the delegation of ladies waited up-
on him and requested that he shake
the dust of Ladonia from his feet
and depart to return no more.
This he declined to do, whereupon
about six or seven of the ladies
administered a severe flogging
with cow-hides.
Alter the whipping the doctor
proceeded on his way to Bonham
Sunday afternoon he returned to
Ladonia and remained about an
hour. At the time of the flogging
he expressed his intention Of mak-
ing Ladonia his 'uture home, but
whether he still intends doing so
I am not informed. Monday the
women were put under peace bonds
of $2t0 each, the bonds being
signed by nearly two hundred citi-
zens. I also learn that the doctor
will bring suit against the hus-
bands of the ladies for $100,000
damages, also that heavy damage
suits will be instituted against the
Santa Fe Railway, the Western
Union Telegraph Co., and the City
of Ladonia.
For a time excitement was at< a
high pitch in Ladonia and further
trouble was feared, but I learn
that everything has quieted down
and all is once more serene in our
neighbor city
The above are the facts as I
have been able to gather them.
As to comment, I am very much
in accord with the view's expressed
by Josh Billings when comment-
ing on snakes. Said Josh, "when
you see a rattle snake occupying
a hole don't meddle with him, but
bear ti the left and say that hole
belongs to that snake." The sen
sation belongs to Ladonia and I
am more than willing for Ladonia
to settle it, )
Prof. H. L. Piner, of Sherman,
on Tuesday last entertained an ap-
preciative audience at the High
School building with his "Evening
with James Whitcomb Riley."
Beyond doubt, the "Hoosier Poet"
himself, had he been an unseen
witness, would have felt himselt
honored in Mr. Piner's
tions. From gay to 1
from lively to revere folio we
quick succession. Humor an<i\
pathos alternated. "Me and Jim"
began with the lighter emotions,
but the deeper feelings of the heart
marked its conclusion. "Before
Day on the Farm" was spendidly
rendered; of course "Knee deep
in June" brought down the house.
Mi. Piner is an artist as well as
impersonator; he can not onlv in-
terpret the spirit of a selection,
but in the tone, movement, and
facial expression, he brings the
character right before you. Hon-
ey Grove may well feel proud of
her son. His ability as an author,
poet, and entertainer, will com-
mend "our Howell" wherever he
goes. At ail times a welcome
guest, we trust that he may return
often to the place of his nativ-
ity to gladden the hearts of his
numerous frien<is.

To the Public.
We beg to announce that we
have recently overhauled and put
our factory in thorough repair and
are now ready to deliver first class
Ice at reasonable prices.
We have secured the services of
Mr. Thos. N. Carey, a man of large
experience in the construction of
ice machinery and the manufac-
ture of ice. as superintendent and
can therefore assure our patrons
that the product of our \ laof will
be of the best. In addition to the
manufacture of ice from pure dis-
tilled water, we are prepared to
refrigerate meats and store fruits
and other perishable goods in sea
son. This is essentially a home
enterprise which will distribute
several hundred dollars per month
for wages and wood, which will go
directly into the channels of trade
here.: If the factory was not oper-
ated J thfe money would be sent to
sort®pliier place for ice, and the
comimfe4ty lose the benefit of it.
Believing that the ice consumers
will appreciate this, and the fact
that we propose to furnish good
ice as cheap as anyone, together
with satisfactory service in all re-
spects, we feel that we can rely on
securing their patronage. For
those prefering to purchase ice in
small quantities as needed,arrange-
ments will be made to have it on
sale at some convenient house
the Square. Respectfully,
Honey Grove Ice Factory.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
its stages, and that is catarrh.
Hall's catarrh cure is the only,
positive cure known to the medi-
cal fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's
catarrh cure is taken internally
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease and giving the pa-
tient strength by building up the
constution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative
power that they offer one hundred
dollars for any case that it fails to
cure.
