last year. The stock was nearly all
represented in person or proxy. The

House property for the last year was
better than the year before, but not
what it should be for the money in-
vested.

Quick Time Hangings*
During the year 11103 there were 90
lynchings in the United States, a de-
crease of (5 from the year before.
Oklahoma had none, while Mississ
i ippi led the list with lfi. For the past
ten years lynchings have steadily de-
creased, possibly on account of the
peo; le being more willing to let the
law take its course. The high water

Major Rick Messall was elected

are nearly the same persons as last
year with a few changes in the trust-
ees.
The usual harangue concerning
the issuing of complimentary tickets
a.- brought up by many of the stock I
holders. A complimentary ticket to
any entertainment means tickets is-
sued without earning the same and
all such tickets should be cut out.
Ihe free tickets extended to the
press are, as a general thing, paid
for at a high price through advertis-
ing and general all around lielng, of
the teporters or editors, in regard to
the merit of the various shows. In
times past this paper has given the
Opera House entertainments adver-
tising to the amount of $15 or $20 .11
payment for four tickets worth from
• 1.40 to $3 00. These advertising
figures are based on the lowest 2 cent
rate lor local. This being true the

every DAY SCENE IN tm
A stranger alighted from a Frisco
train today and he leisurely walked
-low,, town carrying a grip. When
he reached the north west corner of
the square he stopped and gazed
around the square. He noticed a
ast crowd of people moving around
and hundreds of farm teams hitched
along the streets in every direc-
tion
Mr. Lyons was standing by. The
stranger enquired ot Lyons, "What's
going on here todayy, "No amuse-
ment more than t.-ual,—this is simply

the weather is fine, and, It is almost
