In Sweden. according to travellers
who have resided in that country, it is
a household custom to provide rooms
where the children may 60 and cry and
scream and make all the noise they
need 70. In all other parts of the
house they are expected to be quiet and
mindful of the presence Of their elders.

democrats toto the Republican ranks.
We know but little Of Judge Earle's
qualifications for seat once occupied

WILL BLESS THE NAME.

Corpus Christi, Texas, February
Correspondence to The Post.
Since the capital has been subscribed for
cutting the intercoastal channel along the
inner bsys next to tho mainland from
Brownsville to the mouth of the BRACES
river giving some 400 miles OF this coast
country a water outlet at Arkansas Pass,
the inquiry fer and sales OF large trac -
OF land for colonization purposes between
here and Brownsville has been unparal-
ieied in the history of Southwest Texas.
And this has stimulated the towns ana
ranchrnen back OF the water to raise tho
additional bonus demanded for the com
pletion OF the Corpus Christi and Browns
willie road TO Arkansas Pass. About seventy
miles Of this road was graded some three
years since, but like many other enter
prisrs II was temporarily crippled by the
panic, This coast country is certainly on
the ave OF q wave OF great development
and prosperity and Will rise Up and call tho
name Of Alex Brown e. Sons blessed fer
opening the harhor Of Arkansas Pass to tho
commerce Of the world.
