an entertainment of two hours' dura

his own. He presents nn orlRlnnl

as was recently said or him, "his irro
sislilile humor upsets the dimiitv of
a judiie." He is an ardent student
or mysteries, mid will present now
Iclens or his own h'oiik tills I'no. As
an imitator of musical instrument.!
he Is undoubtedly without an equal.'
In his many imilalinns r musical in
struments lie ues compositions wrii
li'ti ror the instrument Imilaled, and
played v the noted muslci.-ins or Hi"
world. For his Imitation of Hie
'cello, "the instrument of the soul"
he uses the "Slur Sonu" from Tunn

Orlfln of Cotimittee.
The commlllee originated by tho
adoplion or a resolution by Ihe coun
cil at Us second meeting In August,
designating the committee ror the
otiriiose nielli lolled. The only city of
ficials incl'ideil In the membership
are liie mayor and the cliy attorney.
The resolution was offered hv mid
adopted at the reipiest or Alderman
Heorije W. Carroll, who has followed
the lead of the ICtlterni-ise 111 advo-
citing a new charter for Beaumont.
The it inn il n t in '-ii f of the committee
was not, nci'hnps. strictly legal, as
the Council hns no authority to cre
ate committees outside Its own mem
bership. The nppolnlnient. however,
I'. In the nature of n reiiuesl by the
Council on certain citizens to serve
the city rathers In the nature or an
rdvisorv hodv In a ow'sHon In which
I hey wish the earnest help and co
operation or Hie tax iinyors. Tt Is ex
pected all the genllemeii appointed
will iirocpl Ihe tnsk Imposed on them.
Reasons for Move.
Tho object or Mr. Carroll in bring
ing about the creation or n new char
ter commit foe Is lo have adopted for
llir cllv or lleaiimont an Instrument
authorizing it tn do business as n
c'ty which will permit tho ndnpl'on
of extensive miiniclnnl refoi-ms.
There are a number of serious objec
tions to Hie pi-cent charter. Hiroe
of
which are considered or
pnra mount
importance. The'- are;
The Too system or paying
public
officers.
The law
limit or nnlliorlxoi taa
lilv oT I'io city to compel
t ion.
The Ina!
I ho construction
or street imprnv;'-
nionls.
Carroll on Trcasurershin.
Of these throe features Mr. Car
roll is especially interested in but
one tho reo system. The Prohibi
tion alderman believes that the svs
lini should he abolished. His partic
ular bone of conlention is the city
trensurersliip. He lias started on a
campaign to practically abolish the
olliee. in so far as it necessitates the
payment by the city or an officer to
perform the duties of treasurer. Mr.
Carroll believes that a treasurer can
lie employed at compensation of $1
per annum and no roes. Speaking on
this subiect with an ITnterprise re
porter. Mr. Cainill laii!:
"On in v recent visit to Waco 1
learned that that city handles the
ipiestionn id the t reasiirership Just
exucilv as 1 advocate il should bo
handled by lteaunionl. I think this
olliee hiilild be taken out or oolilies.
lo begin wilh. and I am confident a
irearurer can be eniidovcd nt $1 tier
year, thus saving Ike city Troiii $:!."("
.i $.'..nuii annually.
THe Waco System.
"My idea is to give Hie I reasiirer
ship to one of the banks. Of course,

Impressed by River.
"I took a trip down the Neclits river
yesterday." continued Mr. Smith, "and
I was astounded at the ntrcnin. It
is u wonderful waterway, and, I think,
a freak ol nature. I cannot account
lor lite great depth, especially when it
is remembered that the lake, into
which the river flows, is so shallow.
I am told that the river has an aver
age depth of from twenty-live to
thirty-live feet. This i consider re
markable. "I have thought a great deal about
lieaiimout since '.'.oming here two days
ago," resumed Mr. Smith, "and I have
concluded that the tliiiiK that will ul
timately have to make the town is
deep water. I have learned enough
about the rapidity with which the
country is being developed agricultur
ally about here, nml if no deep wale,
should be golteu, or if there should be
much delay in setting it, this funiiii';
interests will still make Heuui'i nit
something of u city nothing, how
ever, to ummire with what Uep water
will make. It. . . .
Deep Water Assured.
"iK looks lo me as if deep water is
bound to come 'T the town jooncr or
later, perhaps later, but sure lo come
just the same. The mere fact that
only nine miles ol shallow water lies
between this city and the gulf is posi
tive evidence lliai some 'lay the chan
nel will come clear through. I know
nothing about how the citizens pro
nose lo net Ibis connection made, but
have been told a bonding scheme is
under consideration. This would be a
good way to got the canal if it can't
In gotten any oilier way, but. the work
should really be done by the Federal
(.vernment." That It will be done by
ii in time 1 am confident. The nues
tion is whether it would not he belter
lo go ahead and Ket tho channel your
selves, and trust to having the govern"
nielli reimburse you later.
Good Town Now.
"II is absolutely impossible to es
timate what, deep water would mean
for your city, but it would make her a
liunimor, sure. The great agricultural
country north and west of h"re would
pour its pri.hiots straight to Feau
r.iont. and Lie town would become a
melr lpolis. As a matter ot fact.
