WANT SCULPTOR'S PAY
HELD lTP FOR PRESENT.
AUSTIN, Nov. 19.—Members of
the Sam Houston monument com-
mittee of Huntovllle today tele-
graphed Governor Campbell re-
questing him to withhold the pay-
ment of $9 000 t0 Pompeo Coppini,
the San Antonio sculptor, until
further investigation.. The action is
taken at the request of th« Stone
Ci 't-rs* Union cf Texns, which pro-
tested that the work done the mon-
ument was not by union labor. The
monument was by a San Antonio
firm which claims to employ union
labor, but the employes declare the
union i<s independent and not affil-
iated with the Federation of Labor
DENTON BOY WAS STAR.
The Houston Post's account of the
recent game between Varsity anl
A. & M. says that Clark Brown, a
former Denton High player, and
Captain Kirkpatrick were the stars
for Texas. The detailed account
shows that Brown, after he was sub-
stituted for Massingale and later for
Spoont-s, repeatedly was called upon
to make the distance and almost in-
variably responded to the call. At

Bruce presented to the Chamber of
Commerce directors Thursday *f-
ternoon, secure the active co-opera-
tion and support of the citizens gen-
erally.
Dr. Bruce made a very Interesting
talk before the directors. Sam Hous-
ton and Southwestern Unlvenaity had
both held most successful home-
coming celebrations -and he felt su.ro
that Denton and the Normal could do
equally as well or better. As a re
suit of the home-coming at Sam
Houston that college opened th<3
year with the greatest enrollment iu
its history, an Increase of 125 over
the preceding year, and much of the
increase is believed to be directly at-
tributable to the re-awakening of in-
terest in the old college among the
former students and graduates Blat-
tered over the rttate.
Dr. Bruce's Idea was to hold the
celebration on Monday and Monday
night of commencement week, which
closes Tuesday morning. The stu-
dents should be entertained in th>
homes of citizens and in the day
time by tje Programs at the college
auditorium. Th0 college force would
do. all the clerical work, an Im-
mense amount of which will be ne®~"
essary to secure the addresses of the
old students and to attend the ad-
vertising the event over the state
He was anxious, he said, for lire
college and the town to underake
something together, and t.Vs would
form an event in which botii the
college and townspeople generally
could take an active interest. De-
tails were as yet inchoate in his own
mind, and would hav° t0 T,

read letters from both Huntsv Ue and
Georgetown on the plans followed
there, both attributing the success
very largely to the active interest
and effort ,of the citizens and the
committee.
A committee consisting of Mes-
srs. Rayzor, Blewett, Christal and
Edward^ was appointed to considei
plans and to report back at the nex.

fying rapidly ,and the oaths of office

The induction of one new office?
was rather out of the ordinary.
County Clerk-elect Oscar T. Button
was taken sick Tuesday afternoon
and had to t>e sworn in on his sick-
bed at the home of C, H. Davie 011
Mulberry street. It Will be several
days before he is able to be in his
office on account of the attack
which is stated to be comparatively
slight. County Clerk Bailey Went
to the Davie home and administered
h<3 oath and with the filing of his

to. His bond of $10,000 was made
with A. M. Bush, Ed F. Bates and
J. C. Coit as sureties. Mr. Buttoa
announced his deputies ag John R.
Edwards and T. M. Rucker, Mr. Ed-
wards looking after the courts and

parimeut. John R- Hodges will abo

wh' 11 h,, recovers his health.
W. 11. Pierce filed h'is bond Wed-
nesday and was the first new officer
to qualify. His bond as county sur-
veyor was made with A. J. Nance-
John and F. B. Pierce as sureties.

I Owing to a hitch occasioned by
an error in his state bond, Mr. Haw-

a few days yet. The error was only
technical, but it mas in the bond to
the s'ate and the Controller's de-
partment turned it down, necessi-
tating the instrument's being made
over again. F. F. Pavchall took it to
Austin for Mr. Hawkins and wired
Thursday afternoon that the bond

THREE LABORERS KILLED.
HOUSTON, Nov. IS.—Three lab-
orers were fatally injured at ^
o'clock this morning when struck by
a Santa Fe freight train on the belt
and terminal tracks where they were
working. J. W. Odeli, aged 42, died
a few minutes after th accident and
leaves a wife and family. Rufu .
Dazel, a Mexican, died at a hospi-
tal thre,. hours after he was injured.
The other victim, was white an l
about twi nty-five years old, Is un-
identified. He died at 10 o'clock.
Tito first thing put before the
■ indents was the question as to who -
her there should be a "Yucca" for
the year 1910-11 or not, and after
a motion to the effect that there
hould be such a publication was
seconded, the vote was taken. The
vote was unnimously in favor of the
motion. Then the question as to
whether the price should remain the
same as last year, $1.50 or not, was
voted on, also being unanimously de-
cided in the affirmative.
Then the matter of electing a
chairman of the meeting was taken
up, and Prof. Borden was unani-
mously elected. Mr. Borden, after a
short talk, appointed two boys and
two girls/ to fill the position of tell-
ers. An amusing incident of the
appointment was that Prof. Borden
at first appointed "the presidents of
the two boys' clubs" a* two of 'lie
tellers, and on bc:p.i; in.orr.t.'1 that
the two presidents wer-1 the two
candidates for editor-in chi'iship,
was compelled to change the ai -
pointment to the two secr-c.'iea of
,e elubs, with the presidents of th"
wo girls' clubs to complete the num-
ber, "assisted by Mltfses Boyliu and
Ililyar.
Nominations were then in orde-.
The first nomination was E. L
Hunter, Senior, and president of the
Reagan society. In a Hliort, well
appointed speech, F. M. Chaney pre-
sented his nominee, who was receiv-
ed with shouts of applause, amid
which four young ladiei on the ros
.rum pulled a wire, letting down a
white and green banner, upon which
he name o£ E. L. Hunter was print-
ed together with the injunct'on,
"Vote for E. L. Hunter, the loyal
riK hearted Normallte." The name
f the second nominee, ■ ■ A. Bridges,
president of the Lee society, was pre-
nt d in a most convincing manner
! v E. p. Ilonaday, a i the right can-
didate. His nomination was also re-
, ei'.'-i with shouts of applause. The
nominations were then moved closed
and ix young men appointed to col-
lect the votes. About twenty min-
utes were employed in the matter of
counting the votes, following which
Prof. Borden, after a short talk 'n
regard to the time of the publ'cation
of the Yucca, announced the success-
ful candidate.
A perfect pandemonium, equalled

last year upon the election of ihe
first girl as editor-in—chief, then
broke forth. Mr. Hunter was seized

treme dryness of the summer. Three j
quarters of an acre in sweet potatoes, 1
which he thought would make noth-

MORE MEOICAN REPORTS.
EL PASO, Nov. 17.—Efforts to
bring about armed conflicts btween
Texans and Mexicans are apparently
meeting with ill success. Of all the
armed bands that have started out
to meet each other in the last few
days none have met. The Herald
today received advice from Alpine
that Sheriff Walton was called hur-
riedly to Marathon by the citizens
result of a report that sixty
their old trees after they have passed :
their prime. To get tnebest results,;^ MeXicans were marching up-
replant at least part ot | ^ ,
my orchard every year and intend to
keep about four aeres only of bearing
tree
Mr. Ellichman made over $900 off
the twelve aeres th'e past season or
better than $75 an acre, while hl3
four acres brought an income of mora
man $17" an acre, including the $25
an acre worth of truck crops.

Alpine citizens give little credence
to the report and nothing is known
of the Mexicans' advances. Nothing
is known of the advance at Marfa,
but Marathon declares Marfa offi-
cers telephoned that the Mexicans
were en route there. Armed men
gurded Marathon all night and
sciouts were sent to meet the Mex-
icans, but they haven't yet returned
and are not expected until 4 o'clock.
It is believed the report is unfounded
as in the cas0 of the Mexican ad-
vance upon Rock Springs where
Rodriguez was lynched.
