HI IY FLOCK II1T0 LOIIEJTAR STATE People from East and Middle West Move to Texas to Seek Farms.

C I'-lladlum Hpecial) San Antonio, Tex., Dec. 10 The cutting up of the cattle ranches, tracts of fcrlx thousand to two hundred thousand and three hundred thousand acres Into farms Is the principal factor In 'Increasing farm values In the Lone ( tar State. Commissioner of AgrlculI !" K. n. Krone, Jn his biennial repsrt Just submitted to the governor, estimates that the farm values In Texas. Including products, etc., at this time amount to 11,522.679,020 and that they are growing at the rate of two million dollars a month. The report states that the recently passed nursery Inspection law has worked successfully and thousands of dollars have been saved to the people of the State In a rigid enforcement of the law preventing the distribution of pests over the state. So enormously are the agricultural Interests growing that the Commissioner asks for larger appropriations. He asks that the legislature arrange to pay $30,000 or $40,000 per year for the collecting, through the tax assessors, agricultural statistics. The present statutes fall to provldo any compensation for the assessors, and, the report states, satisfactory returns have not been received. Since the beginning of cold weather In the north, the railroads entering 8an Antonio have been bringing homeseekers by the tralnload. These are principally farmers from the middle west and the eastern states, who come for themselves to Investigate the prospects for farming here. Since the revolutionary troubles in Mexico, there has been a noticeable falling off In the homeseeker travel to the Southern republic, and Mexico's loss. In this respect. Is Texas' gain. There Is little difference In the climate and soil of Southwest Texas and Northern Mexico, where most of the Americans going to that country are settling. So many hitherto undeveloped tracts which, up to the last few months, were devoted to cattle, are now being sold and cleared for farming In the counties between Ban Antonio and the Rio Grande, that two railroads are soon to follow the pioneer settlers in these regions. One projected line will run from Beeville, a city east of San Antonio, to Eagle Pass, or some other point on the Rio Orande. Contracts have been let with a Chicago railroad constructing firm to build the first division of this railroad, which will penetrate not only a rich farming country but good grazing lands. 7 A HINDU WIZARD.""':; Hie Trick That Pussies) an Occidental Master ef Magi. Someof" the 'tricks ef the' Hindi wlaards are past understanding, according to an occidental Baste of magic who was speaking of bis oriental rliaVk This Is what he says he saw a Hindu wlxard do In a club la Lucknow: "He toek a board and placed It on four glass goblets, thus elevating It from the floor. A youngster sitting en the board wis requested to place him bands together, palms up. Then the juggler toek a glau of water aad poured It Into ta outstretched hands of the boy. la the meantime the bey bad beea osiaertBsd. and his attention was fixed on a point Indicated by the magician. Gradually the water turned green ta color and then developel lato a Jelly which Increased In density until it became aa solid as a atone. Out of the center of this appeared the head of a snake, which gradually developed until In the place of the water there appeared a hissing reptile. I was amazed, I can assure you, but the trick waa not yet completed. Hitting the reptile upon the bead with his wand, the, Juggler took It up carefully and placed It baok la the glass. Aa we looked It became transformed Into a Jelly, which In turn melted Into a greenish colored water. Clearer and clearer became the fluid until It waa of Its original color, and then the Juggler placed It to his lips and drank the entire contents. This was the saost wonderful trick I ever saw performed, and It is aa mysterious to me today as It was then." Parisian Sage This Great Hair Grower Now Sold All Over America. What do you think of the liberal proposition that the Glroux Mfg. Co. of Buffalo. N. Y, American makers of Parisian Sage are putting up to the readers of the Richmond Palladium. They know; they are absolutely certain that they have the only real hair grower, beautlfler and dandruff germ destroyer on the market today and knowing this they have requested Leo H. Fine to state to every reader of the Richmond Palladium and to every person living In Richmond and vicinity that be guarantees Parisian Sage to remove every trace of dand ruff; to stop falling hair and Itching scalp, or money back. And every one who reads this 1m portant announcement should know that Parisian Sage makes hair grow, not only abundantly, but gives It that lustrous appearance that all desire. Women will find Parisian Sage the moat refreshing and ideal hair dress ing, free from stickiness or grease. Large bottle SO cents at Leo H. Fihe's and druggists everywhere. "I have used Parisian Sage for some time and think it has no equal as a hair beautlfler and scalp cleaner. No more dandruff or faded hair, thanks to Parisian 8age." Mrs. William Hoglund.

At Local Theaters "Polly at the Circus." No, Polly of the Circus Is not a musical comedy; it is not a circus, nor Is it a riproarlng farce of the present day. It is a sweet, tender. delicate little drama, with a beautiful heart Interest story In It, Just as you would expect from such a producer will be seen at the Gennett on Thursday, December 15. It is only too true that in most of the dramatic offerings the star is "the thing" and the supporting company usually compos ed of less talented people, but here. without any star, we have an ex ceedingly well balanced performance. If you want to enjoy yourself go see Polly of the Circus. The leading role Is splendidly han dled by Edith Speare and the long list of other players employed during the action of the drama Include a number of well known artists. "Wanderlust." The desire to travel is strong in the human breast. Everybody seems to be possessed to a greater or less extent of what the Germans call "wanderlust. The land we have not yet visited Is just the one we long to see most. But as so few of us can ever spare the time or money to go there. It is easy to understand the popularity and vogue of Lyman H. Howe's Travel Festival wfih comes to the Gennett on Friday, December 16. It Is practically the only attraction of Its kind with sufficient compelling power to make you feel you are traveling to Just where you want to go. It Is because Mr. Howe knows how to gratify the universal craving to travel and satiates It In a very alluring way, that two million people travel via his route each season. It Is a royal route, too. Particularly so because the audience may rub elbows with nearly all the mighty ones of earth the kings and princes of Europe, potentates and dignitaries from everywhere Including Col. Roosevelt while attending the late King Edward funeral. Every episode and incident of the historic pagaent in London aa well as the Impressive scenes at Windsor, Is shown with such perfect fidelity that the Philadelphia Ledger said of It "It Is likely there will be no greater tribute to the splendid king than this presented so vividly to the American people." Then, too, there will be scenes of the royalty of Japan as well as its peasantry during a big . Jubilee; a ride up the Eiffel Tower; through Switzerland in winter; daring artillery maneuvers In Italy; the fiords of Norway life . on a training ship; building the Grand Trunk Pacific railroad: with many others of the amusing kind. An Old Qarrot on a Stormy Day. I know no nobler forage ground for a romantic, venturesome, mischievous boy than the garret of an old family mansion on a day of storm. It is a perfect field of chivalry. The heavy rafters and dashing rain, the piles of spare mattresses to carouse upon, the big trunks to hide in, the old white coats and hats hanging In obscure corners like ghost, are great! And It Is so far away from the old lady who keeps rule la the numery that there Is no ponstWe risk of a scolding for twisting off the fringe of a rug. There Is no baby In the garret to wake up. There is no "company" In the garret to be disturbed by the noise. There is no crochety old uncle or grandma, with their everlasting "Boys, boysr and then a took of horror. Donald G. Mitchell. Thoracograph Is the name that has been given a machine which has been Invented to draw diagrams of a person's chest movements during respiration.

a". ' I 110 BIBLICAL NAMES Are Desired by the Spokane Indians. (Palladium Special) Spokane, Wash., Dec. 10. "Spokane Indians do not like Biblical names," said J. Mc A. Webster of Fort Spokane recently. "If you should be dropped blindfolded into the Spokane Indian Reservation you might easily imagine yourself in a Jewish Synagogue. You hear Moses speaking to Isaac, Reuben whispering soft words to Judith, and possibly Benjamin, Aaron, Levi and Joseph in a heated controversy over money matters. "When I first took charge of the Spokane and Colville agencies six years ago, I thought the Spokane Indians a very religious lot of people but I soon found it was in name only, and that they were not at all satisfled with the names." . Almost the first day, said Captain Webster, an Indian came to him with an interpreter asking to have his name changed. He had a "very bad" name he said. His name was Benjamin Isaac. Hundreds of Indians have asked to have their names changed and today they are "Tom. Dick and Harry." Biblical characters are becoming scarce. In the early days when the French Catholic priests were the only white men among , the Indians in this country, the natives adopted their old picturesque, descriptive names, like "Good Thunder." "Afraid of a Cow," "Rain in the Face," and so forth, or else French names, but about 25 years ago an evangelical missionary changed all their names and caused the trouble which Captain Webster has had in furnishing common "Ameri can names.

Buy Your Red Cross Seals!

Red Cross Society, the three local newspapers, to which the Richmond supply of Christmas Seals were sent to be disponed of to the public. The Christmas Seals' agencies for this paper are named above. Each seal sells for one cent and every cent invested in these Seals swells the Red Cross fund for its war against tuberculosis the great white plague. Heretofore Richmond people have had only indirect benefit from the fund realized by the sale of these Seals, but next year Richmond will receive a percentage of the state fund, which will be used in maintaining a city nurse for tubercular patients or for sending them to hospitals for expert treatment Eventually local Red Cross workers hope to have a tuberculosis hospital established here.

WOLF HOW SNARLING Strikers Are Threatened with Starvation. . (American News Service) Chicago, Dec. 10 Settlement work ers who are in close touch with the striking garment workers declared that 20,000. persons were on the verge of starvation as a result of the strike and cold weather and declared they feared that bread riots would result unless the trouble was settled soon. Thousands of the strikers are fac ing eviction for no paying their rent and in many bouses the gas has been shut off, leaving them without light or fuel. Upon this comes the announcement of the union that the new vote on the settlement question likely will not be taken for several days. In that event it would be nearly Christmas before the strikers returned to work. The garment manufacturers have declined further arbitration declaring they see nothing left to arbitrate. Sympathy has been created for the strikers by the parade yesterday, in which 25,000 persons, thinly clad and hungry, paraded through the downtown streets. The parade was followed by appeals for medical treatment, as many of the strikers caught heavy colds in the cold march. Catarrh Cannot Be Cured with LOCAL APPLICATIONS.
