TYLER WILL HAVE A
NEW SETTLER
TP,
Tyler is to ha\e an opera bouse.
This is a sure thing, according to a
statement made by one of the leading
business men of this city to a Cour-
ier-Times representative yesterday
afternoon. The gentleman said:
"We are going to organize a stoclc
company with a capital of $20,000,
and we have a pian th&t I think will
be a very popular one, in fact many
have already suhscn'bed for stock on
the plant. We want 100 persons to
take $100 c-f the stock, which will foe
$10,000, and then we propose to aeli
blocks of stock in larger quantities
| One firm ha? already taken $1000 and
there are offers from others to take
i good quantities of the stock."
There are three of the beat hust-
ling and niDst enterprising business
men iu the city behind this movement
and we are assured that the play
house will be ready for the earning
fall opera season.

Who takes the Risk
Did you ever take up a collection for a Flooded
District? For Storm Sufferers?
If so, you have a pretty good idea of the value of money in
times of NEED. You have a picture of the future of many
good wives and little children, whose hnsbands and fathers,
fail to leave proper protection for their care.
You have a slight idea of the hard lives many a once beaut-
iful wife and pretty child are living, because the father left
them upon the care of their friends.
Don't risk your loved or.es upon the tender care of the pub-
lic. Upon the attentive services of the neighbors. The
public and the neighbors have other troubles, and your wife
and babe may follow the same ronte that many other wid-
ows and orphans do,—either to the poor house, to an or-
{>han's home, or be forced to do hard work for a very scant
iving income.
Cut out the worry, the troubles, and the risk, by letting a
good Home Insurance institution, like the Praetorians, as-
sume the risk. We are doing this for 12,000 others;—why
not for YOU?
It only requires a small sum to carry one, two or three thous
and dollars life insurance. Twelve years of successful bus-
iness stands behind sur contracts with many thousands of
satisfied members.

Very day. If not, these words are not for you.

THE PRAETORIANS
C. B. GARDNER, President Dallas, Texas
General Deputy, Eastern Texas
M. B. Wheeler, - - Tyler, Texas
The advantages of advertising this
tedian was demonstrated In a very
substantial way yesterday when U.
A. Smith and faüher reached this
city f'oni West Virginia, having re-
ceived some literature setting forth
the advantages of Smith count y as a
desirable location for farmers.
MY. Smilth came in Sunday right.
Yesterday morning be met Bill Boa-
tlck, oí the Arm of Bostick & Jones,
wllio, securing a buggy, drove the
gentlemen aroun l the city and out
into the country. After toeing ah own
several farms, they were not slow in
selecting a faim 'belonging to C. L
Oaspary, located two and a. half
miles east of the city on the Winona
road. A deal was nuade and "by yes-
terday afternoon 'Mr. Smith had
bought the farm and has already
written his family to gei ready to
come on their long journey to Texas.
The farm has 350 acres and sold
for $3000. It has a good house, a
large orchard and Is in a fair state
of cultivation
Mr. Bostick stated to the Cteurler-
Tlimes man that Mr. Smith will not
only bring his own famllv to Texas,
but his brother-ln-lniw will also come,
bringing his family. His father Is
.'''rrrrly here, so our community will
l"j ncuor by three families. There
are (v • grnwn daughters wiho are

Of course the gentlemen are well
pleased with what they hiave seen
here, or they would not have boulght
a $h000 farm.

a hearty welcome, as we will to all
good citizens.

Dallas, Tex., March 16.—In line
with the suggestion made by J. Hoi-
ace McFarland, president of the
American Civic Association, ir. his
lecture here last mouth the park
board Is considering the removal of
the Elks' arch, now at the corner of
Mdin and Akard etroots, from the
business section of the city. Mr.
McFarland declared that t!hc arch
ought to be removed from the streets.
Yesterday the. park board appointed
EJdgar Pike and M. N. Baker to re-
port upon the advisaíbiilty oí remov-
ing the arch to the fair grounds.
M. L. Buckner suggested that the
structure might Ibe used at Fair
Park either ais aá aviary or a fisher-
ies ibuiklinig The Elks lodge which
erected the structuie donated it to
the city with the provision that It
should be maintained and kept light-
ed and the- | ark iboard believes It ha
not the authority to remove it with-
out puibltc sanction.
The commltee appointed, however,
will endeavor to ascertain the con-
census of pulblic oplndon as to the re-
moval of the arch to the fair grounds
and will re|)ort at the next meeting
of the hoard.

LARGEST ICE PLMT
1# SUTE OF TEXAS
Tyler has one of the largest lee
plants in Texas. We know this
statement must be correct for It is
the largest one wo have ever visited
and we have been around tome of the
big breweries and they have to have
big ice houses to accommodate the
trade.
A Courier-Times man called on
Manager Booty of the Tyler lee Com-
pany yesterday afternoon and that
gentleman said: "We are going to
give the people the best lee we have
ever served th«m with thds coming
summer, for I have Jutet had installed
cne of the very best filters nuade and
when the water which the lee Is
made from goes through this appar-
atus I am sure It is as pure as it fs=
poBsdlble to moke It."
A visit to the new storage root
which is just now being completed,.
mention of which has 'been made la
these celumns heretofore, was lndee<f
nn eyeopetw v. It looks as though
the place could hold enough ice tor
supply the whole country for an era-
tire summer. However when the*
fact that this concern furnishes the
ice for nearly all refrigerated cars
that transport tihe fruit and truck
grown iu this part of the world Is
taken in to consideration It Is no-
wonder that a brick house covering:
an acre or so of ground is neededl to*
keep things cold.
CHEAT RAILROAD Slit IS

What a General Strike
Would Mean to Country.
Scope of proposed railroad strike:
Mileage, 60 per cent of United
States, total 140,000.
Men directly affected, 30,000.
Mioniihly lass to men in wages,
$1,800,000.
Monthly lots to railroads, estimat-
ed, $10,000,000.—Dallas News.
Chicago, 111., March 1G.—Danger of
an imminent strike of 27,000 locomo-
tive firemen, the throwing out of em-
ployment of more tlnan 125,000 other
employes and the temporary suspen-
sion of business on practically every
railroad system between Chicago ard
the Pacific Ooast was averted yester-
day through the aceptance of offers
of mediation from the federal author-
ities at Washington.
At the request of the general man-
agers of the forty-seven Western rail-
roads involved, Chairman Martin A.
Knapp of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and Commissioner of La-
bor Charle.5 P. Neill telegraphed an
offer of federal mediation to the un-
ion officials. This offer was accepted,
W. S. Carter, president of the Broth-
erhood of Locomotive Firemen and
Enginoment, stipulating that action
must begin without deley.
The acceptance of mediation was
contained in the folowing telegram
sent by the brotherhood:
"Hon. Charles P. Neill, Commis-
sioner of Labor; Hon. Martin A.
Knapp, Chairman of the Interstate
Commerce Commission- Matters in
controversy involve conditions of em-
ployment and Increases in wages.
Ccrrimittee pr\ paring to leave city,
but. if assurance is given that media-
tion "will begin immediately and in
the city of Clhicago, authority for the
men to leave the service of the com-
panies will be temporarily withheld.
The fact that we have proposed arbi-
tration on all matters In the oontro
versy and the fact that the managers'
committee have rejected our proopsi-
tion does not lead our men to expect
a settlement from mediation, ibut, as
evidence of our fairness, will accept
your friendly offices under the oondi-
t i o ri/s named herein. Please answer
promptly.
"W. S. Carter."
In a statement given out last night
'lie general managers' committee
.said: "All prospects of a strike are
over. There will be none. Settle-
ment of the whole contrcveisy iby
mediation and arbitration is assured."
Mr. Carter received a telegram an-
nouncing t.h?.t Mr. TCnrpp and Mr.
Neill would arrive in Chicago Thurs-
day morning.
STREET SPRINKER
(From Tuesday's Daily.)
"The Ktrfret sprinkler win start to-
morrow," said1 W L. Cain this morn-
ing. "provided we get the necessary
subscriptions today to complete the
amou'nt necessary to pay the expen-
ses of watering the streets."
This will be good news to every-
body. There are a few who do not
like t> pay "the price" but It is
something we must have, let it cost
what it may.

MATTERS TO ADJUST
ill THE GAS PUNT
How about that gas plant?
Tills question lias been asked the
Courier-Times man more times than
one and in euch way drat one would
think that we ought to know.
A newspaper should know every-
thing ami if it don't know should"
find out. We mane a rvearch for the
Information, and one of the directors
in the concern ¿aid:
"You bet your life the gas plant is
going to be com pelted."
"When?' as'ked the reporter.
"Wiil I do not know Just wihon, but
there are some matters to adjust and
then it takes time to build gas plants
you know."
As to how long it takes to make
gas plants we are not posted, Just

NOW IN FINE CONDITIO
„ Tnci-e was considerable uneasiness
amnc-g the members of the Country
Club Alenda y morning, when word
came in that a great lot of dirt bad)
sluffed off the big dam out at thus
pretty place, and that the dam was
considered weakened thereby.
President Rowland was soon on the
scene, in fact he went out Sunday af-
ternoon a few minutes after the dirt
fell off, <;net found that a lot of the
neiw dirt thrown In oa the br-ck of
the old .lam. in lebuldlng same, had
slid down the high embankment and
that at one place the dam looked as
though it might give way. A large,
force of workmen, however, soon
had the dirt replaced, and the work
of strengthening same fay adding
moro dirt is going on.
Mr. Rowland stated to a reporter
this morning that he diove acros®
the dam in his buggy last evening
and that It >was his opinion Miart It
was perfectly safe, and had been all
the time. "Ycu understand," said.
Mr. Rowland, "that In rebuilding the
diam the dirt wiae packed in very
solid where the breakwns made frith e-
eld dam, and in the rebuilding we
made the dam higher than the old'
one and the dirt thrown on the old'
and left so. When a good soaking
rain falls, like It did the other night'
it U¡56r,n« up ihing« and the frtrt
slides off We are profiting Iby this,
however, and are making the dam
ftronger in every way."
There are considerable other im-
provements going on there ju«t at
! this time, the old club house being
; repaired and other necessary thlnigs-
done to make this an idea', clulb lake.
