Henry moved to Texas and worked on a ranch for three years. Later, he moved to Houston, worked for a newspaper for a year, then bought a newspaper of his own in Austin, Texas for $250. He was not pleased with his newspaper's title; so he renamed it The Rolling Stone . For a while, he did the writing and even the illustrations, but couldn't keep it up. The Rolling Stone apparently gathered moss and failed.

HENRY (PSEUDONYM OF WILLIAM SYDNEY PORTER) George Washington, with his right art upraised, sits his iron horse at the lower corner of Union Square. . . . Should the General raise his left hand as he has raised his right, it would point to a quarter of the city that forms a haven for the oppressed and suppressed of foreign lands. In the cause of national or personal freedom they have found refuge here, and the patriot who made it for them sits his steed, overlooking their district, while he listens through his left ear to vaudeville that caricatures the posterity of the proteges. A Philistine in Bohemia , in "Voice of the City" [ New York If there ever was an aviary overstocked with jays it is that Yaptown-on-the-Hudson, call New York. Cosmopolitan they call it, you bet. So's a piece of fly-paper. You listen close when they're buzzing and trying to pull their feet out of the sticky stuff. "Little old New York's good enough for us"that's what they sing. A Tempered Wind , in "The Gentle Grafter" [ New York You'd think New York people was all wise; but no, they can't get a chance to learn. Every thing's too compressed. Even the hay-seeds are bailed hay-seeds. But what else can you expect from a town that's shut off for the world by the ocean on one side and New Jersey on the other?
