We hope the present year will not
close without seeing R. D. Beirne and
R. M. King bequeath their name and for-
tune to some fair miss. Col Reardon is

We know of several old sinners in
Denison who spent more money in
gifts to women that are not their wives
than to their wives.
Mrs. Chas. T. Daugherty, widow of
the deceased postmaster Daugherty, was
married recently in New Jersey.
Mrs. Edgar Barnes of Cheyenne, Wy-
oming, presented her father, Councilman
Frame, with a magnificent Woodman’s
charm and a solid gold chain.
There is a baby at Streator, Ills., only
ten months old that is said to know every
letter in the alphabet. Of course that is
a lie started by some woman.
Mrs. Kirby Purdom of Tishomingo
was here the past week on a visit.
A poor unfortunate woman in this city
who has for several years supported a
trifling, no-account husband has at last
plucked up the courage to apply for a
divorce. It is said that the man'neither
drinks nor gambles, and enjoys perfect
health, but is too lazy to work. There
are a number ot wives in Denison who
should be guided by this case and give
their husbands the grand bounce. Let
tbe good work begin at once. This is
about the best new year’s resolution that
suffering wires could put into effect.
Here is a story that is vouched tor by
responsible parties. Two Sears street
young ladies were out rather late the
other night with their steadies. They
tolgot to take the latch key and on their
return home they rang the bell repeated-
ly but could rouse no one. Almost in
dispair they stood on the porch wonder-
ing what they could do, when a neighbor
who had been awakened by the din ap-
peared at his window opposite and asked
what was the matter. "We are locked
ont and cannot awaken papa,” they
replied. "Wait a minute,” said the
quick-witted man on the other side of
the street. “Your father has a telephone
in his room and I will call him up."
So central was called. “Give me number
-," said the neighbor. As soon as
the bell sounded in the room of the
sleeping father he jumped up with a
start. "Hello, what is wanted ?” “Is
that you Mr. -?” “Yes, what is
it?” “Your daughters are at the front
door trying to get in.” Old man:
“Well, let them stay there. Good
night.” The young ladies passed the
night unde, the roof of the opposite
neighbor. ,
Miss Alice Davidson, who was a well
known resident of Denison about twelve
years ago, is making quite a reputation
as an actress. In Boston, Mass., she re-
cently appeared in the character of Roy.
The Journal says Miss Davidson in her
character of the young southern girl was
extremely charming in each appearance
and action. She is vivacious and pretty
and carried her part with becoming
grace. She was accorded a hearty re-
ception by the audience on her first ap-
pearance. It was on the whole one of
the most satisfactory productions seen
there this year, which has been prolific
in first-class attractions.
Sixty-six per cent ot the young men
between 16 and 35 ot the United States
are unmarried. The average age at
which 34 per cent of young men married
* was 25 years.
Miss Leila Howe who is attending
school here spent the holidays at her
home at Lebanon, I. T.
Miss Lula Lavo who has been here on
a visit to her father and friends returned
to Weatherford the past week.
We heard the other day that a pretty
young married woman stated that if a
certain play was introduced by the
amateurs she intended .to play the leading
role in tights. Lord ! what a crowded
house she would draw at the bare an
nouncement of her name.
It is easy enough to make ~a man un-
derstand when his company is not want-
ed, but the average woman is.hard to un-
derstand a hint.
If the average man’ could be as suc-
cessful In business as he is in making a
fool of himself, the proportion of busi-
ness failures would be much smaller.
Have you ever noticed the frequent
notices that appear in the papers ot men
warning the public not to trust their
wives. As a general thing this is a pub-
licity that ia cowardly. Why do not the
women turn the tables and caution the
public against their spendthrift husbands
who go into all kinds ot excesses, gamb-
ling, drinking and what not
If the women were custodians
of the purse matters would be evenly
adjusted and less debts would be con-
tracted. Wives as a general thing earn
all the money that they spend. Of
course there are notable exceptions. We
would liker however, to see the women
pluck up sufficient courage to caution the
hue-
Charles W. Ellis, toreman of the Katy j
shops, and Mrs. Mary Rhea of Atoka, I. ]

A 8plendid Showing.
The close of the past year was a most
notable one for the State National bank.

magical change. Tbe Postal is
growing constantly in the good
grace of the people. There is no
better service in tbe state than at
Denison. Their new headquarters
is a big improvement over tbe old
stand. It it a very inviting place,
fixed up with all tbe appurtenances
of a metropolitan office. It ia prob-
ably the best equipped, most con-
venient and largest Postal telegraph

He is a most affable, courteous gen-
tleman, calculated to make frieods
for his exchange. He has the very
best and safest financial backing,
and business entrusted to him will
receive careful attention. The ex-
change which has been open only
few days is enjoying a good patron-
age.

She is at present conducting a
school in tbe city where ber hus-
band is a prisoner. This places her
in communication with him, and
every effort of her life is devoted to
cheer and dispel the gloom of prison
life. Mr. Perry states that Mrs.
West is very much broken in health,
but she has never lost courage in
the work to which she has devoted
some office chair. It was decided by
Manager Mouiton to Inaugurate the cus-
tom of giving a Christmas Eve banquet
from this time on, and Ed aays that it a
Kind Providence should spare him, each
banquet shall be better than the previous
one.
The Gazetteer extends warmest
congratulations.

A few days ago the reporter of
the Gazetteer was invited to tbe
new headquarters of Lingo &
Sharp, over the Red Front, the
front suite of rooms. They have
by all odds the handsomest’quarters
in Denisou. The rooms are at-
tractively furnished and the walls
embellished with several beautiful
paintings that intimate the taste ot
Col. Lingo, who is an ardent sports-
man and disciple of quaint Isaac
Walton, the daddy of the gentle
art of angling.
From a postal card received we
should judge that Dr. R. P. Wright
has been pardoned from tbe peni-

several years ago for life. Dr.

people who will rejoice at his re-
lease. The Doctor it • man of

At 4:30 p. m. New Year’s day,
Mr. Frank Sproule and Miss Alice
Acheson were married at the resi-
dence of the bride’s father, Dr.
Alexander W. Acheson, on west
Woodard street. Rev.* George P
Hauser of the Congregationalist
church performed the ceremony in
the presence oi a few relatives of
tbe two families And two of the
bride’s most intimate triends.
Lovely floral decorations lent
^f-ttieir charm to the bridal scene, tbe
noticeable feature being masses of
roses and carnations. The bride
wore a handsome traveling costume
of blue mixed goods with hat to
match, and immediately after tbe
ceremony hurried congratulations
were spoken, and goodbyes said,
the married couple leaving for the
union station where the Katy flyer
for the south was boarded for the
wedding journey. The point of
destination is San Antonio.
Both the youngs people are too
well known to need introduction
here, both having been reared ar.d
educated together here, and Miss
Acheson at least having first seen
the light in Denison. The friend-
ship formed as school companions,
as the years passed, was more
closely cemented, and finally ripen-
ed into love, with the step taken
new year's dav as the sequel.
Mr. Sproule, a veteran of the war
with Spain, is captain of tbe Deni-
son Rifles. He is connected with
the postoffice force and is popular
with the soldier boys and his busi-
ness associates, and in every way
worthy the accomplished, fascinat-
ing young bride he has won.

gratulations to Mr. and Mis.

It Stands Out
The real estate question ts one
that stands out as most important in
life’s affairs.
Real estate is the basis of all val-
ues. Those who own property are
independent, but those who do not
are foolish.
My plan and terms will enable
you to easily own a home and help
you to be a lindlord. We’d like to

The city council cut down the salary

A Orest Responsibility.
‘We assumed a great responsi-
bility when we operated on Presi-
dent McKinley,” his doctors say,
“and should be appropriately re-
/.Warded.” The “great responibil-
of thej lty»» tj,e (joctors assumed, however,
did not help the patient; he died
just the same, and there are those
who say that there was entirely too
much operating in the case. There
is not the slightest reason why Mc-
Kinley’s physicians should leceive
a big appropriation from congress.
