Herman Holschuh Who Has Been Making Extendid Trip ; Through South Returns Herman Hohlshuh, the "diamond king," who left the city several months ago for Oklahoma, returned Saturday morning after an extended trip over the south. He was glad to get back among his old friends again, even if it was in mld-wlnter and snow was on the ground. During the time he was gone Herman visited the states of -Oklahoma, Missouri, Mis sisslppl, Louisiana, and Texas and had a fine trip. He was employed for a time with the M. K. & T. Ry., In the train service and had the mis fortune to be injured in the service, being a patient at the company hos pital at Sedalia for several weeks but his injury did not prove permanent and upon his recover he took a rest, visiting the rest of the states named above. lie spent several weeks in New Orleans and is full of Interest ing information upon the Crescent city which he considers a beautiful place. He was especially impressed with the principal street of the city Canal street,' with its great width and ancient buildings. The French quarter of the town also appealed strongly to him, Its quaint and ancient buildings constituting some thing well worth seeing, lie was through Lorlslania, going over the Southern Pacific and visiting such towns as Jennings and Lake Charles. He saw the beautiful Spanish moss so famed over the world, growing in festoons on the trees in the Louisiana swamps and describes it as very beau tiful. He visited Vlcksburg and saw the beautiful national cemetery at that point where the soldiers of the civil war, the blue and the gray, sleep side by side. He considers the ceme tery as one of the most beautiful he over saw. He has a number of in teresting stories to tell of darkey life In the south. Ills visit to Texas com prised a stop at several of the larger cities and he was wonderfully Im pressed with the marvelous growth which has taken place, especially at Houston which he visited eighteen years ago. At that time It was a typical struggling, western frontier town and today It Is a large and prosperous city with a population of 100,000. As has been told In the Journal's columns heretofore, he found that nsl year was a particularly severe one on Oklahoma and Texas and the crops throughout both those states were failures. Despite this he found them moving on Just the same and with no prospects of a letup in their growth. The trip took several months but he considers that it was time well spent and he is able to give to his many friends a complete and concise story of the wonderful possibilities of the south. He expects his brother Wil liam, now living near Minco, Okla., here within a short time to look af ter business matters and make a vis- It with friends. Jas. Fitzgerald Recovering.
