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. '
Tho many friends of James Fitz
gerald will be glad to learn that he
Is getting along very nicely at St.
Joseph's hospital In Omaha where he
has been for several weeks paBt and
that his condition is such that he will
probably be at home by the end of
the coming week. Jim has had a very
hard time and at times was so low
that his life was despaired of. How
ever, he has successfully rallied and
there is now small room to doubt but
his recovery is assured.

at Ccaies' Hall.
The mask ball given by Mrs. Aus
tin's team of St. Mary's Guild for the
benefit of St. Luke's church fund, last
Saturday night at Coates' hall was
one of the most delightful social af

dance wa3 a success in every way.
the ladles netting a very substantial
fund (or the church. The attendance
was very large, a number of visitors
being present from Omaha, Nebraska
City and other places.
The costumes were of unusual eleg
ance and a great variety and it was
apparent that no poins or expense had
been spared to make the occasion a
splendid one. While there were a
very large number of costumes much
above the ordinary, one of the most
Interesting and attractive was that
of Mrs. Eva Reece and little master
Henry McMaken, Jr., and Baylor.
Mrs. Reece appeared as an Indian
squaw with the two youngsters as
pappocses and they made a distinct
hit, especially the grave little In
dians. Dancing took place until a
late hour following the unmasking
and the evening was one of unalloyed
pleasure. Refreshments were served
during the progress of the dance.
Music was furnished by the Wood
man orchestra and was of the usual
high standard of that organization.
