Car.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26.-After
trying for two years to escape his fate,
Millionaire William Bradbury was taken
to the county jail today to serve a
twenty-four hour sentence for splitting o 1
the floor of a street car.
Bradbury was tried and convicted
many months ago and sentenced to
twenty-four hours in Jail. He appealed
to the superior court and the Judgme Mt
was affirmed. When Bradbury was ar

without the alternative of fine.

said the court ''Mr. Bradbury, if your
attorneys had asked the superior court
have no reason to doubt that it would
have been granted The law, however,
allows to no alternative, and I must
enforce it and sentence yon to serve
twenty-four hours in the county Jail and
turn you over to the sheriff
After the pronouncement OF sentence
a deputy sheriff escorted the capitalist
to the Broadway jail
This was a test case, which was
watched with great interest. Late this
afternoon the attorney of Mr.. Bradbury
made an application to the state SUI
preme court for a writ of habeas corpus.
The court took the matter under advise
ment until tomorrow. In the meantime
the millionaire is doing his time. The
writ will probably be granted tomorrow,

ABOUT CAMERON COUNTY


At the extreme southern tip
of the great state Of Texas lies
Cameron county, itself a small
principally in extent. In area
il covers no less than 8,30S
square miles. It's southern ex-
iremisy lies about the sixteenth
OF 9 degree below the 26th. par
alel, while its northern latitude
is about 20 90. It's greatest
width from east to west is some
thing over forty miles and from
north to south 100 miles.
CLIMATE.
Though so near The trop g
yet the climate of this county
is comparatively cool in sum-
ner. It's entire eastern front
OF about one hundred miles, be
ing laved by the cool waters OF
the Gnlf OF Mexico, which great
~ tempeFs the heat natural to
southern ATTITUDES. The pre-
vaiIfng wind throughout the
greater portion of the year is
from the Southeast and comes
directly across the Gulf. The
wisters are also extremely mild,
and make this al ideal place
for any who seek escape from
the Figors OF q northern winter.
Indeed, no place in the United
States enjoys a more solubrious
climate during the winter sea
son that Brownsville, the cuun.
ty seat Of Cameron county
Here The average temperature
for thirry-nine years was 20 de-
gress.
Tbe land lies nearly level, the
altitude at Brownsville being
only AZ feet. The soil is rich
with the slIhViaI deposits OF
endless years, and it's treasures
of fertility are az yet almost
untouched only a limited por
ton Of its surface ever having
been disturbed by the pillow.
In many places the soil lies
from ak to twenty feet deep,
being practically insxhanstible,
and this of the finist aud richest
aoil known, ranging from a rich
dark allu7ial to a sandy loom.
The county is watered by the
Rio GraBde, which skirts It's
ehIire southern boundary, a
distance Of sevensy-fVe miles.
Besides this there are numerous
small streams, called .resacas
and earroyos," throughout the
county.
