To Give The Fish A Rest.

The question whether man shall
be allowed to fish on Sunday OF
not has just had a very lively dis
cussion In the Massachusetts legls-
lature. The existing law pro-
hibits it, and the effort to change
it was defeated by vote of 100 to
so. AS a matter of fact, nobody
pays any attention to the law, aud
the debate had the marks of not
being very serious on either side.
The ablest argument made was by
a defender of the law, who main
tanned that the object of it was to
give day of rest to the fish, in
which they could take necessary
food without danger of swallowing
a hoOk.-IndiauapoIis State Sen
tinel.

The AutomobiIe Question.


The topic of general interest in
Brownsville today is the suggestion
that the new contractor for the
Brownsville and Alice mail, Mr..
James A ,,Browne, may use auto
mobiles instead of ambulances,
when he takes charge of the
service. Mr.. Browne informs
The HERALD that he has nothing
definite yet to give out regarding
the matter, except that he is
considering it aud may adopt au-
tOmOblles if he is assured that
they will prove entirely adapted TO
this country. He is now in cor
respondence with automobile man
ufacturers, but has received no
proposition from any yet. Those
who have seen these machines used
in the North assure Mr.. Browne
that there will be no difficulty in
running them on the Alice road,
through either sand or deep mud,
provided they are not run through
water deep enough to extinguish
the fire in the engine.
The cost of the autos would be
from $1,000 to $4,000 each, aud, if
the same car can be run all the
way through-that is through the
sand district as we'll us the re-
mainder of the road-four will be
sufficient, otherwise six would be
necessary.
1t is believed that the mauufac-
turers will agree to send couple
Of their machines DOWN and make
a practical demonstration by run
nIng them for several trips between
Alice aud Brownsville, with the
understanding that Mr.. Browne
will take them If the test prove
satisfactory. If such an agree
ment can be made, and if the test
should be satisfactory, Mr.. Browne
says he will undoubtedly use the
auto system.
This would be boon to Browns
vile, shortening the time between
this place and Alice to twelve~
fifteen hours, and delivering t&s
mail here in nearly twenty-four
hours less time than by ambulance.
The autos will accommodate pas
SengerS to a considerable number,
as their capacity can be increased
when necessary by the attachment
of ~agorette. " They will BE-
about sixteen horse power.
1t is thought the government
would be induced to increase the
price paid for the mail service, in
consideration of the great improve
ment made, sh0nld the auto sys-
TEN be adopted
