A few days since the Evening Herald
devoted something near a column space
in describing the dilapidated, unsightly
and apparently unhonored graveyard,
(Oakwood). The article is timely and
certainly something should -be done by
the council looking to its improvement
But there is another question relative to
the graveyard and concerning which the
Herald failed to direct the attention of
its readers, and that is: Of what benefit
will Oakwood be to Denison if the coun-
cil allows it to be practically cut off from
the city by the new railroad? This is vir-
tually the case now, and should the road
see fit to go on north over Travis avenue
it will be an impossibility to get a hearse
or vehicle of any kind into the graveyard.
Judging from the present condition of af-
fairs in that part pi the city one would
come to the conclusion that the city in
tended soon to abandon Oakwood as
burial ground altogether.

Registration Matters.
At the close of the books Friday even-
ing 1707 people had obtained from Regis-
trar S. D. Harper certificates entitlin
them to vote. The books will close at
o’clock Wednesday evening April I, and
Registrar Harper is of the opinion that
the figures will go to 2200 or 2300. It now
looks like nearly the entire colored vote
of the city will register, over 300 having
enrolled their names, while the total vote
of the city is only about 450.
The registration at Sherman up to Fri-
day evening was 17CO.
The registrar has decided, and it ap-
pears to be in accordance with the law,
that in case a man moves into another
ward after he has registered, that he is en-
titled to vote in the ward in which he
registered, but not in the ward to which
he removes.

Friday morning caused quite an excite-
ment "for a short time. Other than the
loss of some 200,000 to 250,000 gallons of
water and expense of some $iqo in re-
placing the broken pipe, no other serious
damage resulted.

How Things Have Improved.
There was a time, and it wa* not so
very long ago, when grown p-ople could
not travel in safety. Such are the con
veniences and safeguards of modern rail-
way equipment that a child can go from
one end of the land to the other unac-
companied. There came through on the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas railway, on the
Katy Flyer, the other night a little fellow
not more than five years age, who was go-
ing to New York to meet his mother.
The little fellow was armed with a letter
to all conductors explaining his loneli-
ness and it was cheering to see the efforts
the train hands and passengers made to
amuse and care for him. Somehow or
other everybody heard the boy’s story.
His motper had been sick in a New York
hospital and after many weeks the joyful
news had come that she was convalescent
and he was going to see her and surprise
SS-
her. They all trifed to kill time for him
from the old gray-beaded man, who was
kicking because it was raining, to the re
porter in the sleeping car. When time
came to change cars there were willing
hands to carry bis satchels, when the din-
ner station was reached, although the
youngster’s purse was heavy, a dozen
hands went down to foot the bill, and. in
the dead of night the old fellow who had
complained about the weather, interrupt-
ed a poker game long enough to inquire
of the porter: “Ia the kid asleep?” And
when told that the boy was all right the
old man handed the darkey something
that was not a tobacco tag and said:
“Well, you look after him all the way to
St. Louis.” To make a long story short
the boy arrived in New York and he had
almost as much money when he arrived
as when he started. He had a good time
and the Katy peopfc have a telegram an-
nouncing hu arrival which makes them
feel good.—Dallas (lews.
