Prof. Mclnnis made his first
monthly report to the trustees of
the city schools Monday. The
Leader is pleased to make the
following extracts from the same:
. Total number enrolled 423, of
which 372 are white and 51 col-
ored; 198 boys and 225 girls
Average number belonging for
the month, 388. Per cent of at
tendance, 96. Pupils tardy,
white, 31; colored, 3. Number
of visits from members of the
board, 25. Days taught, 20.
Resident pupils enrolled, '351.
Transfer pupils enrolled, 53. Pay
pupils enrolled, 19. Corporal
punishments, 3. The school is
doing well as may be seen from
the following taken from a sup
plemental report by the superin-
tendent: In Miss Young’s room
46; Miss Hickman’s, 45; Miss
Browning’s, 48; Miss Allen’s, 48,
Miss Noyes’, 39; Miss Baker’s,
42; Miss Davis’, 35; Miss Jones’,
37; Mr. White, 32. Colored
school, 51. So far no visit is re-
corded from parents or patrons,
which we would be pleased to
see, and the teachers and pupils
will also be glad to see you there.
Let the teachers and the pupils
know you are interested in the
progress of the school by going
at least occasionally.
Do not miss the opportunity of
visiting Barnes & Higdon’s
grand millinery opening on Oct.
15, at their Big New Store on the
east side of the square.
“For three days and nights I suffered
agony untold from an attack of cholera
morbus brought on by eating cucum-
bers,” says M. E Lowther, clerk of the
district court, Centerville, Ipwa. “I
thought I would surely die, and tried
a dozen different medicines but all to
no purpose. 1 sent for a bottle of
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy and three f'oses re-
lieyed me entirely.” For sale by Key
Bros.
y, The Foreman boarding house
was entered Friday night and
some provisions taken from the
kitchen. The officers soon lo-
-Cated the burglar, being a young
0 negro girl. What will be done
in the premises it will take time
to determine. There is no way
like nipping the evil in the bud.
For sprains, swellings and lameness
there is nothing so good as Chamber -
Iain’s Pain Balm Try it. For sale by
Key Bros.
Everybody holding premium
stamps must bring them in be-
fore Saturday Oct. 19, positively
no stamps will be redeemed after
this date as the time is now past
due for cashing them. Barnes &
Higdon.2
A Fiendish Attack.
An attack was lately made on C. F.
Collier of Cherokee, Iowa, that nearly
proved fatal. It came through his kid-
neys. His back got so lame he could
not stoop without great pain, nor sit in
a chair except propped by cushions.
No remedy helped him until he tried
Electric Bitters which effected 'such a
wonderful change that he writes he
feels like a new man. This marvelous
medicine cures back ache and kidney
trouble, purifies the blood and builds
up your health. Only 50c at Key
Bros.
The commissioners court met
the Lampasas court at Red Bluff
Tuesday and virtually decided on
the old bridge site as the best
place for the site of the new
bridge, although it will have to
be at least ten feot higher than
the old one was to put it above
high water. The two courts met
at Bend Wednesday to locate the
bridge there, and at Whitted
crossing Friday to confer with
the Brown and Mills county com-
mittees about the location of
that bridge.
The large pump for the water-
works was brought in last Sat-
urday and placed in position the
first of the week.
Dick Murray and John Owen
returned last Saturday from a
five weeks trip with four or five
hundred head of cattle through
Menard, Tom Green and Concho
counties. Found no pasture and
brought the herd back. •
The San Saba postoffice is now
a third class postoffice. The
change took effect Oct 1. The
postmaster’s salary is $1100 per
year, Postmaster’s of third class
offices are appointed by the pres-
ident and confirmed by the sen-
ate.
We Can’t tell a Lie.
When we say there is no shaking of
bottles, no licking of spoons, no wry
faces when Cheatham s Laxative chill
tablets are used. 25c. No cure—no pay.
Judge J. A. Abney and his
daughter, Miss Rosetta, were
here a few days during the past
week visiting friends and re-
newing acquaintances of other
days. The Judge led the ser-
vice at the Christian church Sun-
day.
Swapping- Lies.
Is practiced, but don’t swap off
Hunt’s Lightning oil for a worthless
article. Ask your druggist or mer-
chant for a free sample bott’e.
Heaven Help Us
In our troubles, but use Hunt’s Cure
for itch, tetter, ringworm, itching piles

vere lacerations and external injuries

tient will remain cured. Price 50c in

t MANUEL RARDumRE CO. t
The railroad surveyors are re
ported as being about half way
between this place and Burnet
on what is known as the old Hig-
don survey. They will probably
reach this place by the last of
next week. They are yet some
miles to the east of the old grade,
and it is now questionable wheth-
er any part of that work can be
grand.
Stepped Into Live Coals.
“When a child I burned my foot
frightfully,” writes W. H. Eads, of
Jonesville, Va., “which caused horri-
ble leg sores for 30 years, but Bucklen’s
Arnica Salve wholly cured me after
everything else failed.” Infallible for
burns, scalds, cuts, sores bruises and
piles. Price 25c at Key Bros.
There is something good for
Lampasas in the air, but the Lea-
der is not authorized to say more
at this time. Let all our people
[ork together, and the result will
grand.
Tot Causes Night Alarm.
“One night my brother’s baby was
t taken with croup,” writes Mrs. J. C.
Snider, of Crittenden, Ky., “it seemed
it would strangle before we could get a
doctor, so we gave it Dr. King’s JNew
Discovery, which gave quick relief and
permanently cured it. We always
keep it in the house to protect our chil-
dren from croup and whooping cough.
It cured me of a chronic bronchital
trouble that no other remedy would
.relieve.” Infallible for coughs, colds,
Our good friend, Alderman
Oliver, is doing some excellent
work upon the streets, and some
places have been made very at-
tractive under his supervision.
He knows how it ought to be
done, and if the land owners of
abutting property will allow him
he will add much to the value of
their property by making the
streets present a neat and at-
tractive appearance.
Caesar Conquered Britain.
Malaria was conquered by Simmon’s
Liver Purifier (tin box.) Protected
from moisture, dust and insects Clears
the complexion, cures constipation,
aids and corrects action of the liver,
A Tripple Hanging-.
Smith, Brown and Jones hang all
their hopes of recovery upon Cheat-
ham’s Laxative Chill tablets. They
will be around soon shaking hands with
friends. 25c. No sure—no pay.
C. C. Stewart, of Hamilton,
was here a day or two last week.
He is connected with one of the
Hamilton newspapers, and says
that country is fairly prosperous.
Aunt Lucindy
Always carries Hunt’s Lightning Oil
around with her, says it’s fine for
swellings, tooth-ache, colic, weak back
and back ache, cuts, burns, neuralgia,
catarrh. Aunt Lucindy has sixty-nine
grandchildren and ought to know what
she is talking about.
One of the remarkable fea-
tures of the fall is the fact that
the pear trees are now in full
bloom. Just northwest of the
depot there is an entire orchard
in full bloom, which presents a
most singular sight for the sea-
son.
Happiness depends very much on the
condition of the liver and kidneys. The
ills of life make but little impression on
those whose digestion is good. You can
regulate your liver and kidneys with
Herbine and enjoy health and buoy-
ancy of spirits. Price 50c at Key Bros.
Mrs. M. Y. Peacock died at
her residence in depot town Mon-
day morning, after a short ill-
ness. 3he only lacked a few
days of being 86 years, of age,
and has been in this section for
many years. She leaves a large
circle of relatives and many
friends to mourn her loss. Her
mortal remains were laid to rest
Tuesday evening in the city
cemetery.
