IMPORTANT HI T SUH.Y M li-
IdSCTKI).
Sum.' Interesting fuels sir shown In
the October report of the Bureau of
Vital Statistics of Texan. It Is estl-
mu%'il that at least r.. It chlhlr^ per
month, or *ir , n:'8 per year, born in
Texas are not registered.
If the Tax l'ayers rcnlixc how many
eases are appealeil to higher courts
on a question of am anil the cost of
such cases to the Siat$* when such
questions could be Hettled.ln the lower
courts by u certifletl birth certificate,
they would demand a completi Mirth
Heglstratkm.
If the mothers realized that the
orphan k'irl, who needs protection un-
der those laws which have an age lim-
it, u* depriv. il of such protection by
failure to have tier birth registered,
the mothers of Texas would see that
every baby's birth in their community
was registered.
If the Labor I'nlotis. whonc purpose
is the protection of the laborer, both
child and adult, were awake to the
fact that the Child's Labor Law is ab-
solutely dependent upon Birth lteRis-
tratlon'for enforcement, the Labor
I'nions in Texas would swing all their
influence for complete Birth Hegts-
irution.
Compulsory Education without
Birth Uegistration will lead to end-
less litigation, depriving the child of
such education as the State intends
to force upon it. Teachers who are
progressive must sta.'H for Mirth Reg-
istration. ,
Birth Registration keeps the under-
age orphan boy out of the peniten-
tiary or off of the gallows when his
age would send him to the Reforma-
tory. Birth Registration will furnish
the State unimpeachable qvldence to
convict the criminal who assaults an
orphan girl under age of consent, and
will exclude the purchasable testi-
mony ofasome nrjfro woman, or an
old Bible with Its birth record that
liaa been erased and written. Tho
minister of the gospel, If he would be
consistent, must stand for Birth Reg-
istration an a protection for those
who will be orphans in cominjr gener-
ations.
Accuracy in Birth Registration Is
necessary More than one out of a
hundred do not show the «ex, date of
birth, or whether the child is legiti-
mate or otherwise If a child's birth
Is registered, the p;irent should not
permit a stigma to be thrown on lite
child by questioning the legitimacy,
utiles." it is otherwise. Such defects do
not become apparent until tin* child's
age is questioned, and it is possible
that by that time it may be an
orphan

and edited by a roan named Wunder,
lias been received by these papers. He
certulnly does put up some strong
argument* l'or the liquor interests,
tint the "wunder" of tho whole thing
Is that he would expect sensible peo
ply t<> believe t III'III. one um6ng the
"salient" points he makes Is that only
une fifth of the railroad uccldents
have been traced to liquor. The reason
l'or this Is that railroad coinpanle-
have long since discarded employing
tin n wh they know to be uddlcted
• ■ drinking intoxication liquors. Pro-
i. ibly had the companies known that
the men who were responisblo for the
twenty percent of all accidents had
lii i n w hiskey drinkers to start

something less than nothing, us they
me,, would not have.had a Job.
Thai was a handsome and valuable

That this is thrue, is not to be que
tinned, and that it will provo the
source of much gratification lo both
pupils and faculty Is not doubled. The
gift consisted or the very latest edi-
tion of Webster's International Dic-
tionary, printed on India linen paper
and handsomely bound In Russian
leather. At the same time tills gift
was made tho club also donated a-siiii
liar volume lo the South Ward School,
together with a beautiful dictionary
holder, and we understand the club
has In mind the donation of other
books to tho different schools of the
city. Tills action Is certainly commen-
dable and the ladies composing the
I'Mlewelss Club a re ^deserving of the
highest praise which may be accord-
ed them. These papers take public
cognizance of I he gift and bespeaks
for the club continued pruises and
appreciation of a grateful poople.
A little boy asked another recently

McKlnney is going to have a Tex-
tile Show, the date of which Is sot for
'anuary 20-21. Tills is a movement In
the right direction flreat results will
follow this effort to interest the ladles
of the county In the varied and difli-
ciilt work of textile arts. That there
will tie a splendid exhibit can scarce-
ly be doubted, for It l« well known
that throughout the county there are
many ladies who taite an exceptional
pride in the product ton of the most
attractive, technical and artistic de-
signs of tills beautiful and fascinating
work. In addition to the many pre.
mlutns to tie offered on t"Xtlle exhib-
its. there will be prizes awarded for
the best culinary exhibits This show
is preliminary to the holding tif a

What's the matter with Henry
Llndsley. of Dallas, being Texas' gov-
ernor In lots? He has demonstrated
his fitness for such a. lofty position,
by the wise administration hols giving
the City of Dallas as Mayor. He Is a
self-made man—and a good one. All
wool and yard-wide, and as true as
steel and the gospel.
When the Interurban was build
through McKlnney many people be-
lieved that it would kill tho town,
claiming that all the trade would go
to Dallas. But what has been the re-
sult? Just the reverse has happened.
Instead of all the trade going to Dal-
las. McKinney has increased her
trade to a larger percentage than
ever before In her history. She litis
ii.ado greater progress In municipal
improvements than she ever did lie-
,ore. In fact practically all the im-
proving which lias been done has >ic-
on rod since the advent of tho Inter-
urban and further Improvements
are still tinder way. Street
at'or street has been paved, homos
have been remodeled, newer and
handsomer, .more attractive homes
have been built, and In fact, there
has been no end, no cessation of ac-
tivities, since the first current was
sent over tho electric Interurban
wires. Everything augurs well for tho
futtire. Railroads and factories build
|own , despite of knockers and ct-l-
. inity hov.iers; they have In on the
forerunners of territorial dovelopnur.U
nil trod- expansion, and will con-
tinue to I e, as long as time goes on.

Dallas, Tex., Dec. 10.—l'lulnclothcs
Officer James C. Koddy late VVedncs-
duy night shot and killed I'edro
LOllseondo, a Mexican, who he caught
in tho act of highway robbery. Israel
(lottKalcs, another Mexican concerned
in the hu.d-up, was put in jail by tUli-
cer Will Henry on a charge of high-
way robbery.
Officers Hoi'-'y and Henry were at
UunnellM and Imncan streetn in liast
Dalliei at II o'clock Wedensday night
when tlicy saw two Mexicans knock
down a third Mexican and start lo
through his pockets. They called on
the robbers tu surrender but the men'
lied'leaving IhclY victim, whose name
proved to be A. I'arlsoo, on tho side-
walk.
Jtoddy picked out one Mexican and j
Henry the otlu r and both ofllcers gave'
chase, lloddy seeing that tils mini'
was going to escape, opened lire on
the fugitive. *A bullet from the police
officer's pistol took effect In the
Mexican's right leg as lie was about a
block away. The bones of both legs
were shattered just below the hip and
the big arteries In the thighs were
severed. The man lost so much blood
that he died at I'urkliind hospital
soon after midnight.
Iliul Victim's Hill.
Officer Henry after doing some
strenuous running, managed to catch
tho other Mexican as he (lodged down
an alley. The man was carrying his
victim's hat In his hand when he was
caught.
The Mexican arrested by Henry and
tho Mexican who had been robbed,
wer • both sent, to the city jail where
they are held for Investigation. Tho
Mexican who was knocked down was
intoxicated, so the police say. The
two men gave theft* numrs to tho
jailers as Israel fionxnUw and A. I'a-
I'lseo. (iunzales said that the dead
man's name, was Pedro ICIIseonilo.
The Mexican's body Is held by the
l'almer, O'Connor and Whisenant t'n-
dertaking com puny.
Officer .lames t'. lloddy will go lie-
fore flic Dallas county grand Jury

count uf the shooting. The lust Dal-
las olllcer to shoot a man was con-
gratulated by the probers.
It Is regarded as certain that Koddy
will be exonerated.

mutk who was wounded by a negro
gtfn man In Knst Dutlus about two
years ago. A bullet from the negro's
pistol broke his arm. hater on the
sumo negro shot Mortorcyele Officer

gtln fight on Keegar street. The negro

complaints docketed by them.
