FOR AN ELECTRIC RAILWAY
! Representative of Union Trac
tion Company to Visit Us.
The proposition for an electric
railroad from Sherman to Austin
via W'axahachie is to be presented
to the citizens of his city Thursday
nifrht by Mr. Karnham, the repre
sentative of the I'nion Traction Co.,
of Cleveland, Ohio. The matter was
discussed by the citizens of Sher
man last nijrht in an enthusiastic
meeting and committees have gone
to work in the premises already.
Following· is the letter of the com
pany's secretary to Postmaster
Beaty : φ
Ci.bvei,and, Ohio, Oct. 7, '02.
PoSTMAHTBB.
W'axahachie, Texas.
I)KAK Sik:—Our general manager, I
Mr. Karnham, will be in your city
Oct, 10th; he desires to meet all iti. j
terested in an electric freight and .
passenger railway joining your city ;
with Dallai and Waco; to facilitate
matters we sugKest a mass meeting
for that eveding. He has full au
thority to make all necessary ar
j rangement· for the immediate con-/
; structlon of said road.
Respectfully yours,
1 mon Traction Company.
By W. T. Oodkkay, Sec.
In respons» to the a!w>ve letter
Mayor Pickett has issued the fol
lowing rail for a mass meeting at
• the courthouse at S o'clock Thurs
day night:
A MASS MEET! NO
of the citizens ;of W'axahachie i«
hereby called for Thursday evening,
the Kith inst., at 8 o'clock at the
courthouse in response to above
letter.
All those interested in the up
building of ourclty are requested to
. attend. Η. Ε. Ρκ'κκττ,Mayor.
The Light knows nothing of the
proposition which Mr. Karnhan
brings further than that submitted
to Sherman last night. This asks i
! for the right of way, and guaran- j
tees half freight and passenger
rates now charged by steam rail- j
roads. We would urge a lar^e at- j
tendance at the meeting and full
consideration of thepropositlon Mr.
j Karnham may make.

A Creditable Performance.
A large audience numbering not
lese than four hundred people at
tended the performance of the
Olympia Opera Company at the
park auditorium last night. The
bill for the evening was "El Cap
itan," one of the funniest operas
that has ever been written. It is an
exceptionally strong hill and af
forded a splendid field for the full
est exercise of the abilities of that
versatile comedian, Edward Eagle
ton. In the title roll last night Mr.
ifiagletdn was ahly supported by
Mise Lottie Kendall, Miss Therese
Marker, Mr. Carrick Major, Harry
Lightwood, E. L. Weston and a cho
rus of well trained voices. In point
of stature Mr. Eagleton is ad
mirably adapted to the role of El
Capitan and he portrayed this char
acter in a most admirable manner.
He has a fine basso voice and his
sieging was exceptionally good.
Mr. Lightwood, that clever little
comedian who made himself so pop
ular here iast winter, won new
favors in his splendid work in the
comedy roles. As Estreldaaz Miss
Lottie Kendall made a happy hit,
with the audience, and Miss The-'
rese Harker was fascinating in the j
role of Princess Marganza. The fe
male portion of the Olympians was
greatly strengthened by Miss Lu- !
elle Deva! who has an unusually!
clear contralto voice. Miss I)eval j
is a graduate of the Cincinnati Col- j
lege of Music and this is her first j
season as an operatic singer. As aj
tenor singer E. L. Weston has few j
superiors and his work last night ;
was of a highly meritorious charac- j
ter. As an interpolation in the sec
ond act he sang "In the Shadow of |
the Alamo" and received a hearty ι
encore. This beautiful song was I
written about two years a κ ο by Mr. i
W. H. Machette, the company's
pianist. The performance through
out was a most creditable one and
the Olympians won many new
friends among the theater lovers of
W&xahachie.

SOME REASONS WHY j
Drugstore buying is EASIEST and BEST HERE might be 1
summed up, first, because we enjoy your confidence and we ap- 1
predate your desire to trade here; because we have the beet Q
equipped drug store in point <»f quality in medicine; because we d
offer perfectly safe service service tli^t has stood the test for (j
IS years, adding to us ejtcli year ί discriminating knowledge in J
drug store buying and drug stare selling; because we are the 1
largest buyers and the largest s/llers, with ttie largest stocks S
a point which gives us the Wic* advantage; because we guaran- \
tee every article we sell to\l>«# right or you get your money Ç
back. Prescription filling Lev could not be surrounded with (
better safeguards. We separate the poisons from the other ^
products, atul put them into a blue case alone. Your prescrip
tion could not be safer anywhere. We invite you to come here
for your drug store needs. It doesn't matter how small the (

Most Every Man
has begun to think of
Fall Clothing and
other fixings. Some four
months ago we knew
you would be thinking
just about now and have
prepared to gratify your
Clothing thoughts and
wants. We have simply
done our level best to
assemble a stock from
which every man or boy
can be pleased in his fall
out tit.
CLOTHING
This season is the most
genteel for several years;
the patterns are gentle—
just enough green or red
mixtures to give them
life. Fussy patterns are
not in goodfljtaste this
season.
Our Buying Pull—We buy for five big stores
just as for one. This gets each "lot in 60 to 150 suits,
it gives us every possible price advantage, and that
which helps us is sure to help you, for we can not be
benefited permanently unless we make it to your ad
vantage to buy here. Every price goods ready now—
$8.50 to $25.00 a Suit
Boys' and Children's Clothing—We would
like to dress every boy in Ellis County this fall. We
have such good clothes for boys; they are made so
perfectly ; they fit so snugly ; the styles are so genteel
that it is sure to please every mother that fits the boy
out here. We select for the boys just as we do for
the men from the very best makers $2.50 to $7.50
Boys' Shoes—Now this is where every mother
has trouble, that of getting Shoes for the boys that fit
well, that look well, and wear well. The Shoes we
are selling for boys now embrace these good
qualities. $1.35 to $3.00 a Pair
New Fall Hats—It will not pay to run your face
under a shabby Hat; it is too much of a handicap. But
it is easy—dead easy—to j<in under our kind of Hats.
A price for every purse, and a hat for every face. Not
a bit of use taking t>rte that is unbecoming, for we
have just the kind y<5u need and want $2.50, $3.00
$4.00 and $5.00.

Shoes—We ave done
our best to get the Shoes
