The Santa Fe railroad is meet-i
iug with bad luck on both ends of,
j its line.
Monday morning early its north
bonnd passenger train was de-
railed near Paals Valley, which
! censed a delay of twelve boars to
its south boaod passenger, and
I this same south bound passenger
Wednesday morning met with a
like disaster near Brenham, ex-
cept that it was not so fortunate
as the first train, for in ita wreck
several passengers were badly In-
jured. This last wreck waa the
' cause of the north bound passen-
ger not arriving in this city until
6 o'clock yesterday morning—
eight hoars late.

Just watoh some of onr Bo-call-
ed democratic office seekers run-
ning after the little third party
that is trying to organize in Cooke
county! And every one that
does it ought to be cut by every
democrat in the county. If they
want the votes %of that concern,
let them join it, like men, and not
try to carry both parties.
Marshal Boliug arrested and
locked np in jail last night a
young man named G. W. Warren.
He had passed two counterfeit
silver dollars and acknowledged
that he had passed more in this
city. Everybody had better keep
a lookout for this money.
In our account of'Tuesday's
county court proceedings an error
occurred. It was in the case of
the man who was fined $5, as we
had it, for aggravated assault, and
I it should have read $25. This is
, the lowest fine assessable for the
above offense.

Building and loan associations
are not experiments. They are
proved and successful methods of
saving and investing money. Let
our people see to it hereafter that
they do not waste their money
where they cannot see bow it is
invested.
The bazaar opened yesterday by
the ladies of the Christian church
is a beautifully arranged affair
and deserves the patronage of our
people. It is a good place to get
Christmas presents cheap and at
the same time aid iu building a
church.
Should the Rock Island come
here, the man who owns stock in
the Hesperian building and sav-
ings association, will be fortunate
indeed. He can then build and
get a heavy income on his invest-
ment from the rents on his prop-
erty.
Marriage licenses were issued
yesterday to Nathan Hobbs and
Mrs. Frances Beaver; Robert Fos-

i The Gainesville Light Infantry
will give a grand military ball at
their armory, over Gallia's opera
hous\ on Christmas night, Th-^se
balls are always pleasant and en-
joyable affairs, and this oue will
be one of their greatest efforts.
The Hesperian would rejoice
to see Red river bridged, and per-
haps if our people could work in
harmony and could enlist the
commissioners' court in the enter-
prise, it conld be done.
The report that the teams and
scrapers, and men were at Miuco
ready to begin pushing the Rock
Island forward was not correct.
But they will in all probability be
there soon.
There is more money invested
in building and loan associations
is the United States than is put
into national bank stocks, and the
percentage of loss is not one tenth
as great as in the banks.
The Northern Methodist chnrch
on Dixon street has decided to

Cotton Seed.
Somebody once said that if the
New Englanders had a plant like
cotton, but without the lint, tbey
would get rich on it. So our peo-
ple could if they would use as
much "thrift as^the Yankees, get
rich on what is thrown away. It
is known that for the purposes, a
ton of cotton seed Is worth more
after the oil is pressed out than it
was before. The oil is worth
more than the seed before it is
pressed.
Cjoke county has seed enough
each year to keep a good oil mill
runninig and the pro6ts would
pay a dividend of at least 20 per
cent, on the investmenL There is
a market for all the oil and for the
feed. The hulls can be nsed for
fuel and even the soot of the
chimneys can be nsed for lamp-
black.
In fact, as a wealth producer
we know of nothing that can beat
a cotton seed oil mill. And if onr
people want to inveat in stocks of
any kind they cannot find a safer
or better paying place to put their
money.
