Bryan Eagle: To think of Bryan
these days is to think of handsome
churches and fine schools. Her en-
terprises of this kind have made the
town famous all over the slate. Let
the good work proceed.
When a town aspires to lead all
the rest in schools and churches It
aspires to lead in refinement. But
the ambition to excei in this respect
is considered by some coarse-graineu
people as the abandonment of an am-
bition to be commercially distin-
guished.— Dallas News.

drink habit and bad health, and these
cut short wnat promised to be a
brilliant career. Some years ugo
he voluntarily defended n fallen wo-
man in the courts and delivered an
address so rich in pathos and so
strong in its appeal for mercy for
iht? friendless, wayward girl that not
a dry eye could be seen in the court-
room and the jurors returned a ver-
dict of acqtiital without leaving their
seats. This address has been pub-
lished by every paper in the land and
will be read so long as the story of a
fallen girl can touch and excite the
pity of human hearts.—Honey Grove.

After Cold Storages.

tinder instruction* from the Grand
Jury, which is now In session, Sher-
iff Wise yesterday arrested three em-
ployes of cold storages here on
charges of violating tue local option
law.
The accompanying picture Is that,
of Miss Amanda Bishop, daughter of
Wm. Bishop, one of Collin county's
prominent farmer citizens who lives
In tne Bishop community. Miss
Bishop is a member of The Demo-
crat's big staff of correspondents,
watch are to found in almost every
school district of the entire couaty.
These correspondents gather the
news of tueir respective communi-
ties especially for '1 he Democrat and
send them In for publication. Their
great number has given The Demo-
crat distinction throughout the State,
and even the nation, among county
newspapers. Its success In organiz-
ing such a large staff of special rep-
resentatives has not been equaled by
any other county paper In tue state,
so far as can be judged from a pe-
rusal of their columns which is a
fair test. While this great number
of regular contriDutors are to be com-
mended for their faithfulness and ef-
ficiency as a body, yet Miss Bishop
deserves special mention for her de-
votion to duty. For nearly three
years she has regularly sent In her
letter to The Democrat, carefully
written, newsy and spicy. Never
missing a week during the time when
ai home, and when away from home
she never forgets to provide a sub-
stitute to write in her place. Eishop
news may be always counted upon to
appear In The Democrat, Tne only
failure noted on our register during
her long term of service was due to
the failure of her substitute to write
one week in Miss Bishop's absence.
In other ways Miss Bishop renders
valuable assistance to The Democrat.
She has been instrumental in finding
and having appointed several other
of our most worthy correspondents In
surrounding communities. The work
of this refined and cultivated young
lady for The Democrat and Daily
Courier is greatly appreciated by
both the publishers and our readers.
Writing for publication proves a con-
genial diversion for her, and at the
same time, opens up a fie.- for prof-
itable educational practice and ad-
vancement which ahould appeal to
the Intellectuality o. tne young of
ehuer sex in every community.
