Those brown eyes of Dolly's must in
deed have been keen to make out the
site where the Santa Catarina was ly-
ing. for, with the exception Of a slight
mound, covered by the omnipresent
ooze, there was little to distinguish the
Spanish treasure ship from the ocean
floor on which it rested.
Every drop of blood in the girls body
was tingling with excitement at tho
discovery which her bright eyes had
been the means of making, and with a
little flush Of PLEASURE she made way
for the undergraduate to take her place
at the window Of the coming tower.

Ell PAS0 TEXAS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY TO- 1899

Progressive Union has issued q state
congress, which was to have been held
in this city next week, has been indeti.
nitely postponed.
The reason given are that those in
charge of ths arrangements for the
gathering were convinced that there
did not exist sufficient time te get to-
gether a representative convention
such as was intended, and as the plant
ing season is now upon the cotton
farmer throughout ,he south, those
most interested would be unable to
leave their crops to attend the con-
gress.
1t is probable that the gathering will
be held this fall.

MRS. BUCKLER DECLINES.
She Believes the Park Should Re
Named For Some Historical
perSOndUe.

Mrs. G. N. Buckler has more than
once shown that she has the interests
OF the city at heart, and nowhere more
than in her untiring efforts to secure
the Improvement of the new city park.
She has done more work in this con.
nection than any other individual, and
the people are highly appreeiative of
| her efforts.
| 1t takes enthusiastic and lard labor
as rule to overcome the inertia of the
powers that be, and if Mrs, Buckler
had not exerted herself as she has done
it is likely that the "City Park"
would have remained for many wears
the eyesore that has been our disgrace
fOrSa long time.
1t must have been apparent to every
one that the council last night took ac-
tioR without sufficiently considerinp
the preference of the people of Ell Peso
or even the wishes of Mrs. Buckler
herself, to whose efforts the creation
OF the park is due.
Mrs. Buckler has done her work
without hope of reward, and that the
action of the city council was dis.este-
1ul to her, while at the same time a
highly appreciated honor. is shown bv
the letter which she addressed to the
city counc this morning, as follows:
To the Hog orabe City Council,
Gentiemen:-I notice in the morn
ing Times of this date report of the
action of the city council in naming the
new park ''Buckler Square,. 1 ap-
preciate the Kindness shown me by the
aldermen of the city in my efforts to
Improve the park, and especially |
appreciate the honor con-
ferred upon me by giving
the square the name mentioned:
but 1t appears to me that q more ap-
propriate name might have been Sc
lected.ul therefore feel that must de-
cline the honor and will ask the coun-
Gil to kindly reconsider it's acton and
give the square some other name.
'Respectfully,
MRS. @. N. BUCKLER."
FEB. 10Th, 1892
IL Is needless to say that there has
rot teen any personal feeling manifest
ID In this matter whatsoever. The
sentiment of the people is unanimously
n favor of commemorative the heroic
career OF some great Texan. That is
heir first choice, and the second would
'e to honor Dewey, the hero of the late
var with Spain.
That is all there is to it--a FEELING.
Vhlch prevails in every community,
nat 1t Is better to give such names to
arks as will be of general historical
ignificance.
