An attempt was made to secure the
passage OF an act by Congress granting
American registry to the vessel. but no
action has been taken. Consequently.

of Admiral Merry looking TO the pur-

As follows on an interesting subject:
SIN the last six months homeseek-
ers have poured into Southwestern

OF 7g8, 600 acres for the space OF hair

the Lucas lusher at Beaumont the
Southern Pacific sold not over SIOOO
