CITIZEN SUGGESTS TURN OVER
JOB OF EMPTYING CITY’S
TRASH CANS TO P. M.
One of the first things to be ordered
lone by Weatherford’s new postmas-
ter, Judge J. M. Richards, was the re-
moval and cleaning out of the two big
Bietal trash cans that have stood in
tbe lobby of the postoffice since God-
ley knows when—since they were last
Oleaned out, at least. This is as it
Should be with a Democratic admin-
Iteration, that proposes to clean
hOUee thoroughly and remove all the
trash left by previous Republican ad-
ministrations. Judge RlchardB is oth-
erwise changing things about the of-
fice, having a general overhauling and
* cleaning up.
One determined Weatherford citizen
has Suggested to the Herald that it
might be well for the city authorities
to turn over to the new postmaster
the lob of having emptied the filled-up
trash cans that stand about the
Square, since this will be in keeping
With Democratic administration and
it teems to be everlastingly overlook-
td by the chocolate Industry Bug
Whoae duty It once was to keep the
cans emptied. The determined citl-
Scn further suggests that the new
broom in the postoffice might be able
to !p re vail upon tVeatherford mer-
< Chants to keep their dry goods and
Other kinds of empty boxes off the
Sidewalks and thereby prevent ladies'
gowns from being torn and snagged.

Death «f Frank Hill.
From an Illness the nature of which
could not be learned by the Herald,
Frank litll died Wednesday nbout*
Inidnlght, his demise seeming to have I
been rather sudden. Mr. Hill was a
well-to-do bachelor farmer living on
his farm in the extreme western por-
tion of the county on the Brazos river,
in what is known as the Littlefield
Bend community. He was presum-
ably about 50 years of age. The fun-
eral was held Thursday afternoon,
at the Littlefield cemetery. He left
a considerable family connection of
relatives. Mr. Hill was well known in
Weatherford. < .

presided over by the president, Mrs.

Chautauqua tickets, and in a whirl-

would endeavor to sell the $1500
worth of tickets guaranteed by the
Weatherford Chautauqua Association.
In return for this, the concessions
during the Chautauqua are to be
granted to the club, the members of
which will either sell same to re-
sponsible parties, or make use of
them for the benefit of the club.
After much discussion of ways and
means, the plan was adopted of dis-
tricting the city in four wards, a com-
mittee of ladies to each ward, to sell
as many season tickets as possible
before the opening of the Chautauqua
next Thursday, and the following
ladies were appointed by the presi-
dent to make the canvass of the city:
