HOI SE ABNOM TE * I .CI ,SKITY
That many improvements are need-
ed on Collin county's Temple of Jus-
lice no one will attempt to deny. It
is not more than half large enough
to accommodate the business of all
the officers and court, Is not sanitary,
has no heating furnace, etc. In short,
ii is more than a quarter of a cen-
tury behind the good old town and
•oiinty, anil that's some backwards.
A third story should be put on. an
• lecttic elevator put In, a sanitary
Jurv and grand Jury room erected, so
is tn give comfort and convenience
to nil who have business, In anywny,
with Hie courts. All litis could be
lone, with n bond issue, and a very
small expense tn the lax payer. The
tax payers of Collin are not getting
their monev'ft worth, in this old,
worn, dilapidated court house. I.ets
change It, lets make It safe, sanitary
and habitable. Twice the grand jury
of nM Collin have called upon our
County Commissioners to do some-
thing for the people, but the Com-
nii-sloners have heeded not their
ri ■ omtiiendatlons. This is not as It
should be. The Commissioners are

Heavy rains of l lie Inst two days,

ing waterspout of Sunday afternoon,
which continued throughout the
night, have been of great benefit.
Also tiny have done considerable
damage. But Hie benefit may In tlm
end out weigh t ull the harm done.
It is getting close to wheat plant-
ing time. Much plowing lias been
done, and a heavy rain was needed
to put the ground Into proper condi-
tion for tin- reception of the seed and
for the furtIter plowing that is nec-
essnry.
Reports show that the rains havo
extended practically all over the
grain grooving section of the statn
and Oklahoma, anil with the reports
of damage there Is also a note of op-
timism that has the proper pitch.
Bed River is on a liilrteen-foot rise

more than seven inches between Fri-
day and Sunday evening. Floods nre
reported in the Atoka, Oklii., district.
two women iu'rneii
with kerosene vi" wvi.ie
While pouring kerosene oil from a
can into a stove last Saturday, two
women, Mrs. Bob Brunch and Mrs.
James Richie were severely burned
when the oil became Ignited and ex-
ploded. Mrs. Branch was making a
fire In the stove and after the tire
failed to burn as she thought it
should she poured more oil from the
can Into the stove and a small blar.e
Ignited the contents of the can, result-
ing In an explosion. Mrs. Rlclile was
standing near and the burning oil
was thrown on her. Both sustained
severe burns, chiefly about the hands.
However, the burns were superficial
nnil fortunately not serious.—Wylle

parently shooting either nver or be-
neath the train, according to John
W. Sword, of I'lnesville, Ky., a dis-
charged I'nited States soldier, who
escaped the train, ran three miles
and gave the alarm.
Sword who was dressed In civili.in
clothes, said that he and the three
uniformed soldiers occupied a corn-
er seat In the front end of the smok-
ing cnr. Suddenly there wns a lurch
nnd the three men pitched forward.
Tn a. moment the train came to a
stop and he noticed five or six Mexi-
cans crowding Into the fear end of
the couch next to the first-class doy
conch. The Mexicans came forwards
with guns drawn ond firing. The
first firing was directed at Sword's
companions nnd two of them fell
wounded. The third, T.nymon. wns
shot first In Hie leg nnd then In the
neck, as he was trying to escape.

.With Sword and the three soldiers,
thet'e were also 1 ir. McCain, district
Mtorrii v Wallls, John I. Klelhcr, R.
Wright, traveling man of Houston,
and IV W. Sutler, n traveling man of
San Antonio. McCain nnd Wallls
managed to hide in the toilet without
being observed by file bandits. Klel-
hcr fell as if shot, while Wright nnd
Saner hid tinder seats. Sword said
the bandits then announced to the
several Mexicans In the coach that
they need not fear, that, they would
not be harmed.
In the meantime Sword "snt light,"
but took lito in bills from his pocket
and iilil tho money under his seat.
The bandits enme up nnd asked him
If he had any money. He said "sure,"
reached tn his trnnser pocket nnd
fished nut forty cents, snylng "take
thill and bust yourself." He then
stood up nnd told the Mexican near
him, a woman was badly frightened
In the other conch and he must nl-
11-nil her.
He brushed aside a bandit's irtn.
proceeded into* the first-class coach
and passed through without being
st oppi-d.
ttolilicry Well I'liiinicd.
The robbery was will planned
Taking place at a spot only about
three iiiIRh from the Rio Glandc, the
bandits were afforded an easy esripe
despite the fact that three troops of
cavalry and two companies of Infili-
i'v were rushed by train across co^n-
I ry.
I icteriiilnation to wreck the train
was apparent. ('ondiictor P. A. Horan
who saved himself by turning Into a.
toilet as In- was going forward in the
train on account of an accident
ahead, In Investigating Hie cause of
the wreck after the robbery nnd kill-
ing, found that the bandits lind taken
spikes and bolls from Hie rail.
A wire heavier than baling v. rei
was tied around the center of 'lie
rail and as the engine reached Mui*
spot, the bandits, safe In tho brush,
probably fifty yeunls from the right-
of-wuy, Jerked the rail out. Permit-
ting the rnll to remain Intact Insured
the engineer not being warned until
Ihe engine struck It. The engine,
baggage and mull car nnd express
ear left the track while tho rear
trucks of the smoking car remained
