Commenting on a paragraph il
the Eagle relative to the efforts o.
the Hampstead negroes to rid
themselves Of the vicious and law
less element Of their own race, tn,
Galveston News says:
"White friends of the negroes
should encourage them in move
ments Of this kind in every reason,
able manner, and some of them dc
so. There are various ways to af'
ford them encouragement, one
plan being for the whites TO pro-
coed in some communities TO dem
onstrate more forcibly their own
devotion to the law. Example is
the best method Of teaching in
matters Of this kind. Negroes are
initiative to a degree, and would be
influenced very much by a rigid
adherence TO the law by all their
white teachers. "
There are enough law abiding,
working negroes in Bryan to put
dowa the law breakin element at
once by lite timely assistance
to the authorities, and the exam
pie Of the white people is in the
main all that could be desired.
The laws ale rigidly enforced and
in most instances cheerfully obey
ed. Moreover a splendid school is
maintained for the negroes princi-
pally at the expense of white tax
payers, and all their worthy enter
prises and charities receive assist
ance. While conditions are not
unusually bad here, the Bryan
negroes owe il TO themselves to
join in the reform movement which
is being taken up by the race in
the state, and to uphold the efforts
OF the white people Of Bryan
70 make this clean town. The
organized efforts ofthe Hampstead
negroes have been successfully d.
rected against pistol toting and
living together unlawfully. Va
grancy should also be included.

The Eagle is in receipt of the
handsome souvenir pamphlet OF

the cities and towns visited by the
Chicago manufacturers, bankers

ing to say of Bryan;
Bryan, a sprightly city Of 5000
people, is the county seat of BrazOs
county, and is located in the CEN
ter Of an agricultural region equal
in Its products and possibilities to
any in the State. The Houston
and Texas Central railroad and a
branch of the international and
Great Northern road cross here, at
fording excellent conveniences for
shipping. After the war the Gen.
trail railroad was extended from
Millican to Bryan, where building
was left at standstill for some
years. The place came TO be one
Of the chief inland trading centers,
and in spite of the wonderful
growth in railroads and cities that
has gone on since then Bryan has
held its place with the very best
towns OF Texas.
at has a fine trade, which pours
in from all sides, and ranks first
class in its receipts Of cotton, cat
tie, etc., in its general mercantile
business and in the immense sup
ply trade, upon which some of the
most extensive plantations in the
world depend for their provisions
and equipment.
"The International road only
reached the town about two years
ago and since that time there has
been a noticeable increase in the
vigor and enterprise Of the citizens.
They have busted themselves with
road improvement, bridge build
ing and other public enterprises,
including the Central Texas fair,
one Of the best country fairs in the
State. This enterprise is in -four

Bryan is an important educa-
tional center. Here the Agricul'

Texas is located. Villa Maria

TYING HORSES
TO SAND HOLES
An Effective Device Used by the In
dams of the Desert.

Tying ones horse to a hole in the
ground is a strange proceeding, and to
the uninitiated seems impossible, but
In the great California deserts, with
their vast sand wastes and alkaline
beds, where neither trees nor shrubs
have courage to grow, and where
sticks and even stones refuse to exist,
the demand for some efiicacious
method of hitching animals has been
imperative.
The white man, with all his ingen-
uity, has always found the question
of anchoring his horse on the desert
to be an enigma.
Fear and necessity compel the desert
traveller to keep in motion, for the
sun is relentless and treacherous, as
is the yulture that hovers above with
an anxious CLEAN of expectation in its
eyes.
Over miles and miles Of burning
painless sands he may be doomed to
wander while the sun pursues with
heated vigilance. His horse is his only
companion, the only living thing be-
sides himself in the great heartless
plain, and he clings to it for safety as
a captain clings to his ship.
If nature rebels against the struggle
and the traveller must rest, the only
possible way he can think of to fasten
his horse while he lies down to entice
