SAN ANTONIO Will hi up Win NlsllOT5
very rapidly now that the election is

ern states has turned suddenly cold,
heavy snow storms are reported, and
those to whom southern winter resi-
dence is a necessity are learning that
this region is the very best winter re-
sort OF any section OF the United States.
Florida has been tried and failed. The
climate is too humid and the proprietOrs
of the large sanitariums confess that
the climate is not what is wanted. AL
ready those who have made large In
yestments in the region Of Jacksonville
are prospecting for a change and their
ewes are looking hopefully this way Tor
the land OF promise for those who seek
immunity from weak lungs and diseased
respiratory organs. Some steps have
been quietly taken looking towards the
establishment of some adequate health
resort in this city. that would afiO-d de-
sirable accommodations and lrst-class
medical treatment to the thousands who
would crowd our streets every winter
were such a resort established. This
matter should receive prompt and intel
ligent attention from our people as 1t is
certain that success wOnld crown the ef-
fort If made theoretically.

SLY SKIPPER TOM.
How q Baltimore Mariner Took Two I'ris-
oners In the Port of Rio.

How q baltimore Mariner LOOK Two
oners In the Port Of Rio.
Captain Tom Kelly. now dead was
one of the pioneers in the Rio trade and
a man full of Irish wit The last boat
he commanded was the brig Lapwing.
The captains of other vessels used to
call her Tom Kelly's wooden shoe.
Captain Kelly got into a little difficulty
with the custOm-hOuse officials at Rio at
one time. He was hauled up for trial
and accused rs Frenchman for viOlat-
ing the customs rules of Brazil. "a
Frenchman. did ye sOy?" said Captain
Kelly. BE jabers. did We iver see a
Frenchman with foot as big as that?"
and he held up his big feet The Court
of Inquiry laughed and let Captain Tom
60. Captain Tom was annoyed, as the
other old pioneers were, by the Rio Gus
tOm-hOuse officers. who in the Olden
days persisted in even searching a msn 9
pockets when he landed there.
While the Captain was loading in
Baltimore for RIO one day cOlOred
man with two snapping-tdrtles about 4
third-grown boarded his brig and of
fered the turtles for sale. ''Phat We
want for 'em?" asked the Captain.
..Quarter-dollar apiece" "How lon.
will they live?" ''Live till dey die, boss,
'en sometimes longer. Doan want ter
feed 'em, nuther.H' 'I'll take 'em."
says the Captain. He put the snappers
in a box and placed them in the cabin.
He nursed them carefully and watched
them closely until he got back to Rio.
When he got there he put on his over
coat, although it was warm. and put q
snapper in each pocket. He landed at
the Palais steps and started up to the
custom-hOuse. An officer got on each
side of him, bowling and saying, Bono
CapisO,ao. Bono AnsericanO," and each
one slyly thrust hand in Captain
kelly's Overcoat pocket.
The snappers grabbed finger of
each of the hands and the air was blue
with Brazilian oath, but the turtles
wouldn't let go. The officials bagged
the captain to stop and release them,
but he pretended not to knew what was
the mater. and. telling them he was in
n hurry, dragged them along to the
Custom-house. When he got there the
mems hands were taken from his pocket
with snapper clinging to each. and the
turtles heads had to be cut off before
they would release their hold. The
chief of the Custom-hOuse was angry
and was about to reprimani Captain
Kelly. when he told him that he had
brought the turtles as q present to him.
and that he had no idea that his subord-
mates would attempt to rob him on the
way. Captain Kelly's pockets were
never searched after that.-Ealtim0re
