The following account of the injury

"Alex McDonald, a lineman for the
Katy, residing 111 this city, was feri
ously hurt Sunday morning.
"He was on the north bound Katj
passenger train No. 4, due to arrive in
Denison at 13:45 a. in., enroute home
from Denton, Texas, where he went to
visit his parents and incideutly trans-
act some private businass. As the
train was passing through the lower
yards McDousld got oil on the north
side to shorten the distance to his
home, as be lived in the 1100 block on
West Main street, it was dark and he
could not see the step. He accidentally
fell off the train. He was stunned by
the fall. His right arm fell across an-
other track and was run over and badly
mangled by switch engiue No. 244 in
charge of Engineer L. L. Talleran.
The unfortunate man was placed on
stretcher and taken to the residence of
his sister, Mrs. J. H. Stump, N*o. 1130
main street. Two hours after the ac
cident the arm was amputated above
the elbow. Mr. McDonald also re-
ceived by falling off the steps of the
passenger, several ugly wounds on the
head. His skull was fractured at the
base of the brain and his forehead was
badlv lacerated, necessitating grafting.
"Mr. McDonald has been in the em-
ploy of the Katy about two years, com-
ing to Denison from Denton. Three
weeks ago last Friday be was united in
liiarriaue to Miss Georgia Ellis, daugh-
ter of Mrs, W. H. Holdeman, No. 1015
Nelson street.
"A. McDonald, father of the injured
man, whtyresides at Denton, was noti-
fied of his son's injury and arrived in
the city Sunday on the uorth bound
flyer."
Later—Alex MacDonald died in
Denison Tuesday morning from the
effects of the injuries received in the
accident recorded above. The remains
were brought to Denton Tuesday after-
noon and interred in tbe city cemetery.
The remains were met at the depot by
a delegation from the local branch of
the American Federation of Labor of
which deceased «as a member, also by
a number of electrical workers.

The second number in the course of
Friday lectures Was delivered by Miss
Perry at tbe Girls' Industrial oollege
last Friday afternoon, her subject beiu^
"Economy in Cooking.''
The lecture was well attended, there
being hardly room in the science room
to seat the large crowd of ladies present.
The speaker soon demonstrated to those
present her ability to handle well the
theme she had chosen, and she explain-
ed in a most forceful and entertaining
manner many subjects which have long
been a great worry to housekeepers.
She dwelt on the economy in baying,
as well as cooking. She also tonohed
upon economy in the kitohen proper,
in using all materials, including left-
overs, economy in proper oooking, in
proper combioation of foods, in buying
in quantity, saving in fuel, and so on
until every phase of the subjeot had
been brought out.
She gave a number of properly
arranged menus that came within cer-
tain sums suitable to different sized
purses. The attendance at the flrtt
two lectures is proof of the faot that
the women of Denton are interested in
and appreciative of this advantage
given to them, and too, the men have
asked to be allowed to come and have
beeu given welcome permission. Home
' knowing one'1 was heard to say that
the men are the ones that ought to go
for it will take their interest and co-
operation for the women to inaugurate
"kitchen reform" especially when it
comes to their long loved friend, the
"frying pan."

The board of regents of the Girl's In-
dustrial college of Texas held their
mid-year meeting recently in Denton,
and returned to their homes much
pleased with the progress made by the
students duriug the first term of this
institution. Mrs. Helen M. Stoddard,
one of the regents said:
"All departments of the college are
now well launched, and good progress
is being made by the studeuts.
"While all colleges are bnsy, this col-
lege is the busiest place imaginable.
No dust collects upon the equipment
because of lack of use.
'The law establishing this college
designed it for a practical institution,
where young women should ba prep ir-
ed for the activities of life. Thus it is
that wo see practical industry promi-
nent in every department.
'As we ascended the beautiful hill to
the new building, chatte and dignified
in its classic architecture, we saw f rom
every direction brisk-walking young
women, hastening to thair work,
their navy blue uniform-! and Oxford
caps appealing to the eye pleasantly.
'I shall not attempt to tell of the
work done in the literary departments
of the college. Suffice it to say, liter-
ary work is done, just as in any other
high grade college. Ihe instructors in
English, mathematics, languages aud
the sciences have be9n carefully chosen
and furnished with the best of equip-
ment within the appropriations, in
order that these departments should
equal any other of like kind in the
state. Students do^not lay aside their
books because they attend an institution
where practical industrial education is
given. Indeed, unless the mental facul-
tier are cultivated and developed thor-
oughly,there is no sure foundation
whereon to build a successful business
profession.
'However, the industrial features are
new, and are therefore more interesting
than the other, so I speak of them par-
ticularly.
'Across from the president's office is
the fine arts department, aud we pisse 1
into this first. The talented teacher,
from the famous Rookwood school of
design interestingly exhibited the work
done. A class, seated at np-to-de'e
drawing tables, were taking from still
life, On the shelves and tables were
the models, and in the roomy cares
was stored the material for work.
Finished baskets of all shapes aud kinds
were inspected.
'We were asked to order a consign-
ment of native cane and the need!es
of the long leaf pine from east Texas,
and the willow firoin San Autonio, as it
is the design of this department to uti-
lize native products and de"elop a love
for home production and home grown
materials. There is also a kiln for
china painting class use.
"Upon entering the rooms of the
domestic science department the fra-
grant odor of baking apples greeted us. | do so are given an opportunity to do
The class of twenty or more girls were . their own laundry work.
studying breakfast dishes. They pro-
tected their uniforms with large aprons
aud cuffs aud wore dainty caps, withal
looking as attractive as any young
women we ev r saw seated upon a
piano stool
"The recipes were explained, direo
tions given, measures taken, and the
oooking proceed. The pupils explained
the utensils, and opened the table
drawers where the utensils were kept
in place. There were twenty-four in-
dividual stoves, heated by gas, a jas
range and one for wood.
We lingered long enough to watch
the girls wash the dishes, rinse in the
wire racks, then dry them with the
snowy towels. Th) work was so care-
fully and attractively done as to re-
move any idea of drudgery.
"Before leaving we were allowdd to
taste the apples stuffed withthoronghly
cooked oat meal, sprinkled with sugar
and well creamed,
"Well, what humming-birds get from
morning-glories is not to bs named in
connection with the deliciousuess of
this dish,
"Lockers are proveded whera the
pupils keep their aprons, cuflfs and caps,
each student having a plaoe of her own.
The dining room is well equipped and
the proper way of serving meals is
taught.
In the domestic arts dspartment we
found a large claBs of girls sitting at
low tables, designing, cutting, or at
sewing majhines stitching away on
garments for themselves th it they had
been I aught co make. The gir'-s furnish
the material for these garments and are
taught how to design, make t e pattern,
fit same, cut the material and complete
the garments in a workmanlike mauner.
Before attempting to make gar ments
they are taught to bast'j, to run, to
half back, to back stitch, to hem, to fell,
to French fell, etc. We inspected the
wjrk—beautifully done; hundreds of
garments have been made already by
the girls—with the exception of the
jacket, all their uniforms. Another
year the jackets, to >, will be m ide.
"The sitting room is well furnished.
Lockers, where the girls keep their
aprons, material, etc.. are furnished in
sufficient number to accomodate all tne
classes. Wardrobes, where rnfiuished
large garments are hung, are in one of
the rooms. All in order and neatness
"The dairy is fully equipped, and
girls are taught the care of milk and
the way to make good butter and dairy
dishes. They are taught to use machin-
ery also.
"In the Laundry the porcelain tubs,
the neat conveniences, aare so attract-
ive as to remove all repulsiveness from
this part of the household economy.
The utility and scientific side of this
part of domestic science is made at-
tractive to the girls. Girls wishing to
"Physical culture, e ocution aud
vocal music are taught to all the girls
without extra charge. The singing at
chapel exercises was in consequence de-
lightful and not to be forgotten
"The thoroughly equipped commer-
cial department and the policy of the
oollege to graduate none without their
English requirements are thoroughly
sufficient, will insure the kind of busi-
ness women qualifitd to reduce pro-
fanity among employers wbe are now
wrestling with Dad spelling, poor punc-
tnation and indifferent English educa-
tion in their employes.
The manual training department is
ready for the classes, and the work
benches, scroll saws, lathes, etc., are
certainly enough to make those girls
who inherit constructive talent rejoice
with exceeding great joy.
"Nothing about tho college is more
attractive than the equipment for a
t raining in rural arts. The given-house,
with its numerous plants just started,
the forcing beds with toothsome radish-
es and lettuce, all charmed ns, as they
must also the pupil 1.
"We stopped before the dozen or so
hives of bees, and meditated npon the
apiary which in the future shall more
frequently be seen near thh farm or
suburban home, and then mnoh of the
sweetness that is now allowed to waste
will become common comforts in those
homes.
"Not least Interesting froin many
standpoints were the poultry yards,
with their Leghorn and white Plymouth
Rock flocks enjoying the roomy wheat-
sown yards, aud an occasian outing in
the 'wilderness' or barnyard Baskets
of eggs alraady find their way to the
kitchen of the college.
"The barn is of sufficient size to ac-
comodate horses and a dozen cows.
The present Jersey herd is limited to
six purebloods, one wearing a blue rib-
bon from the Dallas fair.
"We gazed over the roll in fields of
wheat and other grains, and those of
corn, forage, berries, vegetable garden ,
tbe alfalfa for the bees as well as tie
Jerseys, aud rejoiced that so attractive
a sight was the possession of the girls
of Texas.
' Near the green-hou»e are tbe tennis
and basket-ball grounds, for the girls
can play as well as work.
"I cannot omit the good that is daiiy
demonstrated by the lady physican.
No member of the faculty is more ap
predated than this woman of science
grace and health. The care of the phys-
ical health of tte /iris is hers. She also
is au accomplished teacher, and has
several classes daily. By lectures, con-
sultations and by greatest overs ght.
the pupils are reaping health and joy of
living, because of this training. In this
college healthy yoang womanhood shall
come up to commencement day, having
secured a diploma without undermin-
ing the physical health.
"I only wish that every girl in Texas
could enter into all this inheritance.''

EAST SIDE SQUARE, DENTON, TEXAS.
WAS A GREAT TREAT.
Lecture by Colonel lleury Watteraon Mon-
day Night Wan a Sncceaa and the
Targe Audience Well Pleaaed
Col. Henry Watterson, the famous
Kentucky orator aud writer delivered
his lecture on the subject of ' Money
and Morals'' at the Wright opera house
Monday night to a large and very re-
presentative audience of Denton people.
The speaker, who ttius made his ap-
pearance iu Denton for the first time,
was introduced by Hon. Aivin C. Ows-
ley.
Col. Watterson's talk was very inter-
esting throughout and the ease with
which be handled bis subject showed
that the speaker was conversant with
his theme. "For after all," said he,
"suceess iu life is the gaining of happi-
ness. I do njt mean to say that the
happiest man is the p>ore:st, but neither
is the richest."
Those who attended the lecture
hoping to hear something iu regard to
[he present political situation were dis-
appointed, as Colonel Watterson failed
to make reference to either the Panama
treaty or the subject of a democratic
i.ominee for president of the Uuited
States.
The lecture, which was strictly for
the benefit of the public school library
fund, was a success financially as well
as otherwise.
