burb were generously seconded by out
siders. Mr. Jas. L Moore gave a hand
some corner lot on which to build the
church. A large portion of the lumber
was a donation carpenters contributed
work and hardware men tho necessary
hardware. The pretty little church

The fears of an ice famine in Waco
this summer are wholly groundless.
Mr. Isaae Simmons will bo in the ice
business this summer on a large scalo
and alone able to supply the town. He
has just perfected arrangements for an
abundant supply from outside ice
faotories and also for regular shipments
of lako ice. Ilia storage capacity is
immense and he will carry large stocks
enabling him to fill all orders. lie has
never failed in a' supply of ico yet and
this season has arranged for a supply
on a large soalo both of the manufac
tured and the natural artiole thus
serving his customers with either kind
according to their preference. His
warehouse is a very largo ono and in
his ico vaults will always be found a big
supply out of the reaoh of accident or
big demand. Mr Simmons is a busi-
nes man of keen business instincts
and his assurance that he will supply
all tho ico needed may set at rest all the
fears of a scarcity ot the cooling luxu-
ry this summer.
Joe Lehman keeps all flavors of ice
cream.
I have now on hand a complete stock of Gas-

Field and Qeorg.
A gentleman who was present on
the occasion told mo today that sever-
al years ago David Dudley Field and
Henry George met for the first time at
tho ofiico of The North American Re-
view. Mr. George had just returned
from abroad where ho had made a
great reputation but in New York
Sersonally he was little known al-
lough his abilities were generally
conceded everywhere. The gentlemen
met to interchango views on the sub-
ject elaborately set forth In Mr.
George's book "Progress and Pover-
ty." During tho course ot the inter-
view Mr. Fiold criticised alleged
statements in that work on political
economy. His remarks indicated ig-
norance of the toxt to such degree as
to surpriso Mr. Georgointo saying evi-
dently the gentleman had not read
tho book he had come o criticise.
Strangely enough this Mr. Field ad-
mitted which caused embarrassment to
both and cut short tho interview. Sub-
sequently at another mooting a more
thorough understanding of each other
was had and tho opinion of each as to
tho other's abilities was decidedly com-
plimentary. During theso interviews
Mr. Field with the lceen penetration
and artful skill of a lawyer would try
to entrap Mr. George into an admission
of somo proposition with a view to
prove its fallacy. The quick intelli-
gence of tho latter grasped at once the
question in all its bearings and his
adroit and ready answers showed a
genius for debate. .
"Tho duel between these two mas-
ters was" said my Informant 'a
thing to be long remembered and
showed tho great controversial talent
of tho ono no less than tho exhaustleas
resource of tho other both. uperU"
