Mr. and Mrs. W. B. McLendon's delightful country home, Fair-view, was the happy meeting place for a number of guests, who en-joytd an elegant dinner.

They were Mesdames W. R. Little, R. E. Little, J.

Dunlap, at Cedar Hill. Interesting papers were read, a good deal of sweet music rendered, and a tempting course of fruits The people of the Southland are beginning to share in the wave of prosperity which they have helped to start. During the year of 1910 good crops were made and prices have been high. "The Average Man" has had more money at his disposal than ever before but he has handled it wisely. Many farmers and others have taken advantage of the good times to buy homes for their families and this was good.

Some have laid away a part of their savings and for this we commend them. In buying, supplies for their farms and homes, they have bought a better grade of goods and less money has been wasted on trifles than ever before, considering the amount of money the people have had. Our Business of 1910 It is a trite expression to say that "it was better than ever before," but really that is the only way to say it. During the year we carried a larger stock of dress goods, coat suits, millinery and notions than during any previous year. At the beginning of the last year we added what has become a most important branch of bur business, that popular "Five end Ten Cent Store." By opening up this big department, we were able to close out many large stocks of household articles and notions at far less than their real value.

By doing so we have been able to sell manyx15 and 25-cent articles for 10 cents and yet have a profit to ourselves. The success of this department has enabled us to handle the largest stocks of such goods and with the cold cash at hand we bought at low prices. How a bomber of Them, ual, ig ed Tht Chiefr Demetrio XU4 ken $3,000 From Lawyer Out of His Fee Gipsies Engaged in the Trouble Kin to the Warring Bands Here. The latest development in the troubles the warring band of Gip- sles are having here, is two warrants sworn out by Andrew Marshall, colored, against Gregory John, charging John with assault Withj deadly weapon and carrying a concealed pistol. Marshall has also had a warrant issued for Peter John, charging him with assault.

Marshall, who lives near the Gipsy camp at Lilesville, says the Johns assaulted at his home Christmas night. In connection with the -Gipsy war being waged between Chief -Mitchel'i band and the followers of Stephen John the following report of. a happening in a Chicago police court, taken -from' the Chicago Examiner of December 2nd, 1906, will be read with interest: The very" best circles in gipsy o- ciety were shaken to. their foundations yesterday by disclosures which were made in Justice Richardson's court just a few hours before that august tribunal went out of business. One of the occurrences at tended to disturb the equllibr" of the forty-two gentlemen aV lady gipsies who were present the production by Queen Demetrio from mysterious reccr.

-etc, under her plaid shawl of one th asand gold pieces. She flung this money upon Justice Richardson's desk. Nobody got any of it, not even Theodore Proulx, an attorney who appeared in court to represent some of tae gipsies. After they had straightened opt one of the weirdest civil wars that Justice Richardson had ever, hear of they disposed of Attorney Pro-ulx's plea for his fee by remarkiag to him: "No money for you. We joked.

That was Certain events that led up to the appearance in court yesterday of all the gipsies that were not trading horses or telling fortunes were far from jokes. For instance, there was Thomas Jean. It was not funny for him to be tied to a tree all night while Queen Meta and her royal consort, Zelatka Demetrio, tortured him with knives and a rusty revolver. Nor for his brother, Adolph Jean, was it humorous to be arrested In Blue Island. Indeed, there are those who hold that it is no joke to be in Blue Island at all, let alone to be there under arrest.

HOW TROUBLES BEGAN The troubles began with the arri val in the gipsy camp of King Zelatka and Queen Meta, whose last port of call had been Kansas City. They had with them a priceless document, to wit: a list of gipsies who were "wanted." by the police of various cities for various reasons, none of which reasons redounded to the credit of the gips who. were wanted. It was alleged in Justice Richard son's Court yesterday that the name of Adolph Jean appeared upon the list. Adolph maintained that his life had been an open book.

He said that the circumstance of the appearance of his name upon the suspect list did him grievous wrong. He also said that the King and Queen did him wrong in that they told him that unless he gave them $5,000 they would introduce black hand specialty, with him at the re ceiving end. He declared that full of the con sciousness of his innocence he re fused to give up the five thousand, whereupon, he said, he was cast into the Blue Island jail upon a charge which he described as trum ped up. Before going to jail he took the precaution to hand the family bank roll to his dearly beloved dbrother. Tom, whom he trusted implicitly.

and who owned property anyway, which he could not afford to leave even for $5,000. A VERY RESTLESS NIGHT. Then he went to Jail with an easy conscience. Tom passea a resueeu night the night his brother was put I TT hi. racrlaaaTlMa iu jau.

This he finally did, and as soon thereafter as was practicable he Had the king and the queen arrest- ed charged with conspiracy. He hired Theodore rrouix to neip pros ecute them.

But when the king and the queen showed up in Justice Richardson's court yesterday and cast baleful glances at the complaining witnesses and when the queen cast thr money on the desk a great fear and tremb ling came upon the Jean bfethers Adolph and Tom- and they with drew in a hurry the charge of con spiracy they had made. It was then that the attorney asked for his money and it was then that he was told that he couldn't see a joke, that they had hired him all right, but that they had no idea of giving him money. The Queen then rid herself of some language that might have been permissible had it been in the original Romany dialect.but whleh in the crude' English was such as no lady would, use in a drawing room.
