BROKE JAIL.
Jail Birds at Bellville Regain Their
Liberties by Forcing the Bars.

Jail Birds at Bellville Regain Their
Liberties by Forcing the Bars.
The Austin county jail, located
at Bellville, is a new structure of
modern design and appoint
ments and is guaranteed mob
proof by the cage makers. The
guarantee evidently isn't worth
the paper it is written on, as ex-
perience has demonstrated that
the jail will not withstand as
saults either from within or with
out. Some time ago a gang of
Sealy machinists and some others
chiseled into the structure after a
negro ravisher whom they sub
sequently hanged between
heaven and earth to a convenient
limb.
The second assault on the jail
which occurred late Tuesday
night came from the inside. 1t
was also successful, and the in
mates whose captivity had grown
irksome distributed themselves to
different places of safety.
Officers at this place were no.
titled by telephone to look out
for any refugees that might be
headed this way. The means
and the tools employed by the
prisoners in making their escape
was not given in the phone, but
the information was impaired
that Sheriff Palm had a severe
case o. deagpe: and didn't feel
much like talking.

DENGUE FEVER.
Why the Name ''Dengue" Is Applied to
the Complaint.


An investigative genius who
presides over the destines Of the
Waco Telephones local depart
ment claims to have discovered
the origin of "dengue," and as
this is at present and all absorb
ing topic we deem it appropriate
to give the dengue sufferers who
read the BANNER the benefit of
his researches: Most everybody
has had a touch of the dengue
fever and known the effects of
that very undesirable complaint.
If anyone should ask them what
be the cause of their illness they
will promptly reply, GIVE got
that dengue fever
Very few of them, however,
know how the term "dengue"
came to be applied to this form
of fever. 1t is stated on good
authority that young French
man, Mr.. Dengue, had a fever
years ago that was something
out of the usual in its symptoms.
Aside from feeling tired and
having no ambition to move
whenever he would sit or lie
down, Mr.. Dengue ached not
only about the head but in all
the two hundred and thirty some
odd bones in the body. His
symptoms were new to the medi-
cal profession and no name was
given the complaint just then.
When the fever began to spread,
however, and others showed the
same symptoms as those expert
enced by Mr.. Dengue, the re-
mark would be made, ''you have
Dengue's fever" From this ex-
preston the name "dengue,"
which common usage afterwards
caused to be spelled with little
3D." resulted, and today Mr..
Dengue is rems<bered for hav-
ing left this rich(?) legacy to the
woodland if he is not remem-
bered kindly it cannot be denied
that he is remembered quite
well.

Peter Campbell, accidentally
shot by a barkeeper named

The bales are strikingly symmet-

bling dray to haul almost three

Another great advantage claimed
for them is their total immunity
from fire.

The Value of Ashes.

The Geneva Experiment Sta
ton report contains analyses OF
the ashes of hard and soft wood
it had taken the trouble to burn
for the test. The amount of
phosphoric acid was about identi-
cal in the two kinds, being 2 per
cent for the former and 81 per
cent for the latter. Of potash
the hard wood ashes contained
1900 per cent and the soft 6.24
per cent. 1t will be borne in
mind that these were pure ashes,
without admixture of charcoal,
sand or other foreign substance.
What passes for good CONNER
cial ashes contains but about
half these amounts of valuable
contents.

STATE TENNIS MEET.
Breuham Champions More Than Holding
Their Own at Dallas.

Brenham's tennis champions,
Messrs. Holland, Low, Morriss,
Carlisle, ct al, are more than
holding their own at the State
meet now in progress at Dallas.
Mr.. Thomas A. Holland tele-
graphs the BANNER as follows
concerning Wednesdays games:
Glow shut out Gray by a
score of Ga, 1913. Bruins (Hol-
land) shut out Waggener by a
score of Ga, ga, ga. These
were the only matches played
today"
The Temple Tribune says of
the BRENNAN aggregation: The
northbound Santa Fe yesterday
afternoon carried Messrs. Tom
Holland, Guy and Harry Cohn,
Bruins Holland and Charley Car
Isle, of the Brennan Tennis
Club, to the fair, where they will
compete for championship hon
ors during the tennis tournament
this week. All of them are well
known in this city from a previ-
Gus visit during a tournament
here. Tom Holland holds the
State championship in singles,
and also in doubles with T. A.
Low, also of BRENNAN, who went
up on the night train.

The Dallas Fair.

Mr.. R. A. Schuerenberg is
back from the great Texas State
Fair and Dallas Exposition where
he spent several days looking
after a carload of buggies which
his firm has had on exhibition in
the annex to machinery hall.
Mr.. Schuerenberg was also on
the lookout for some additional
vehicles which are always sold
after being exhibited and in
which spot cash buyers always
pick up some red hot bargains.
Of these he succeeded in getting
together a carload, making, with
the original exhibit, two carloads,
which will be forwarded to Bren-
ham as soon as the fair closes,
These vehicles were all built ex
pressly for exhibition purposes.
are of superior design and finish
and will, in all probability, be the
prettiest and most durable lot Of
buggies ever placed on the Bren-
ham market.
Mr.. Schuerenberg says the fail
is about up to its usual standard
Of excellence.

A WEDDING of abiding interest
to the young people of Brennan,
owing to their acquaintance with
and friendship for the bride, oc-
Cured at Farmers Branch, Dali
las county, Wednesday evening,
the contracting parties being Mr..
John Orr and Miss Eleanor Bas-
sett. The bride is former resi-
dent of Brennan, being a sister
of Miss Gilmore BaSsett and OF
Mrs. R. J. Swearingen and Mrs,
Ida Harris, the latter of whom
was in attendance at the nuptial
ceremony. The BANNER ex-
presses the sentiments of a large
circle of friends in extending
congratulations and best wishes,
Mr.. JOE B. GUYToN claims to
have been laid up with the worst
case of dengue in Washington
county, and from the way he
looked while in the city a short
time Thursday we are inclined tc
| believe that such is the case.

The WAY of the Drummer.

The two well dressed men were
about to pass each other when
they CHANGED to look at each
other and the next minute they
were laughing and shaking
hands and shouting: Well,
well, old man, who would have
thought it; how are you, and
well, I'll be switched chappie,
but I'm glad to see you and they
laughed and shook hands again
in boyish enthusiasm and looked
as if about to eat each other.
And then still holding hands a
horrible doubt and fear came
into their faces. They stared,
their under jaws dropped. Amt
you Rob Easy of Cincinnati, fall
tered one? No, I'm Tom Cheat
am of New Orleans. Amt you
Sam Sample of New York, STAN
mered the other? No, I'm
George Grip of Kansas City.
Then from one came an explo-
sion, well, I'll be - swizzled
and from the other, will some
body kick me, as they realized
that it wasn't either of them. Ye
drummer can only be held down
for about twenty seconds then he
hobs up serenely. At the end of
forty seconds the two Dromios
were laughing at each other by a
wet goods counter, friends for
life.

Cuthbert & Co.'s dispatches say of yesterdays market:
 The feature of the market to-day was the strong undertone it displayed in the face of continued heavy realizing sales by some of the leading operators, who were conspicuous buyers all- last week, and large offerings of the bears in an effort to bring apout break in prices. One operator alone liquidated previous purchases to the extent of 30,- 900 shares. The market closed firm at about last nights final quotations, ex- cept Jersey Central, which shows net loss of IS. The bears endeavored, but in vain, to make capital out of the death of Barney Barnato, the diamond king speculator. The managers of his estate say there will be no forced li- quidation of his interests in. the mark ct. which at the time of his death had been still in the process of liquidation.
