Death of Private aeiihiine.

Died, in the hospital at Fort
Brown, Texas, Nov. %, at $40 p.
M, Willard H. Keithline, aged 80
years and five months; cause OF
death, general peritonitis.
Deceased had been i'll in the hos
pital for over a week. He was 3
private in Company c, Fourth IN
fantry, having enlisted at Wilkes
barre, Pa, Jan. %, 1902. He had
been employed as a teamster in the
quartermaster's department since
last July. His nearest living relative
is Mrs. Geo. Wilcox of Wilkesbarre,
Pa. 1t was impossible to ship the
body home. owing to its condition,
and it was inferred in the National
cemetery at the post this afternoon
at four o'clock. The funeral took
place from the post hospital, and
was conducted with the usual
military honors. The death Of
Private Keithline is deeply regretted
by his comrades at the post, and
our citizens sympathize with them
in their sorrow.

TARIFF ON BREAD.
The Predicament of Mexican I'm
porting Il Loaf of Bread
Into Mexico.
Laredo Times.

An amusing incident occurred
yesterday afternoon at the end OF
the tramway bridge on the Mexican
side OF the river. An old Mexican
had purchased a loaf of board upon
this side and was carrying it to his
home in New Laredo when he was
stopped by the custom collector.
"You must pay the duty, senior"
said the polite official.
How much?" inquired the old
man.
After looking the matter up the
collector said seven cents.
But Senor," protested the old
man, 81 only paid six cents for the
bread"
he collector shrugged his should
ers after that Latin fashion that is
the despair Of the Anglo-Saxon.
The old man knew only too we'll
thu meaning OF that untranslatable
action and threw his hands up in
despair.
- ncn vii goback to The Ameri-
can side, he exclaimed and turned
to go.
Hold on there" shouted the
bridge collector; you must pay
your bridge fare back to the Ameri-
can side"
Now here was a dilemma. The
bridge fare back to the American
side was five cents, American money,
and to go on with his loaf Of bread
would cost him seven cents, Mexi-
can money. He stopped and weigh
ed the pros and cons Of the matter
with the deliberation Of Supreme
Court Judge. Then he seemed to
decide the matter very suddenly
and executed his decision with a
strenuosity that would have excited
the admiration of President Roos-
evelt. He hurled his bread far out
over the bridge railing into the
river and walked by the customs
collector, triumphant indeed, but
with string of Spanish oaths that
kept the air blue at that end of the
bridge for an hour afterward.
