Judge Peticolas on Terrell Law
Victoria Texas July 23 Judge A
B Peticolas of this city expresses
himself in favor of Uie antitrust law
recenUy enacted and more recently
gone Into effect He is satisfied that
no one who is not a member of a trust
need have any worry over or fear of
violating the law inasmuch as they
might buy goods of a trust but not
that the trust may be benefited but
because of a personal advantage
That any one may buy from a trust
because they can buj nowhere else or
because they may buy there cheaper
and in so doing advance their own pe-
cuniary Interests and the law cannot
touch them The law he holds is
aimed exclusively at officers and em
ployes of trusts who knowingly do the
things declared Illegal

F MAN WHO GROWS YOUNGER
ROM EATING CLAY
The Baltimore News is responsible
f this He-
At Clalremont Texas there Is a
v ndcr In the person of Mr Henry H
Imrnc who Is B0 years of age but
rto Is reported to look not over 45
Us youthful semblance It is alleged
ling due to the use of a remarkable
land of clay found In that vicinity
I fact this wonderful rejuvenating
ciy according to the beneficiary
lereor is to be found only on a ranch
ivncd by him in the neighborhood of
< aIrcmont and that Is an isolated
pot the exact location of which he
lis refused to divulge
If the neighbors of Sir Bourne arc
o be believed ten years ago he look
d his age which was then SO years
Hit all at once he began to grow much
otingcr In appearance and now would
jc taken to be a man of 45 To make
he narrative more marvelous Bourne
Is growing younger every day and
should the process be kept up It is
pnly a question of time when he will
shrink to the proportions of a boy In
knickerbockers If not to those of a
babe In swaddling clothes
Neighbors have seen samples of this
clay and have seen Mr Bourne eat
it In large quantities but he will not
give any of it away saying the supply
Is limited and as he wants to prolong
his life to four hundred years he can-
not afford to squander the precious
substance
This Is indeed a most amazing
story and it shows conclusively that
all the Texas liars are not yet dead

The Fish and Game Law
it has been noised abroad that the
last legislature passed a law which
prevented the ensnaring of fish by
nets or In any other manner than with
Hid ordinary hook and line Many
have made inquiries of mc about this
law and to enlighten them I quote
Section 2 of this act
If any person shall at any time
during the year take catch ensnare
or entrap any fish except minnows
for bait by means of nets or In any
other manner than with the ordinary
hook and line or trout line except as
specified in Section 1 of this chapter
such person shall be deemed guilty of
a misdemeanor and upon conviction
thereof shall be fined not less than
25 nor more than 100 provided that
the following counties are hereby ex-
empted from the provisions of this
section Anderson Angelina Archer
etaYou
You will notice that Anderson coun-
ty does not come under the provisions
or this bill
I shall also take this opportunity to
state that under the new fish and
game law no citizen of Texas will
have to pay one cent for license to
hunt In his own state but before the
man who lives out of Texas can come
here and kill Texas game he Is re
quired to take out license at a cost of
15 per jenr
The new laws will soon be printed
and any one who so desires may ob-
tain a copy by writing to Hon L T
Dashlell Secretary of State and en-
closing rorty cents for cost of book
and postage
Every citizen who Is interested In
the affairs of his state should avail
himself of this opportunity and read
ror himself Respectfully
