to attend court rs witnesses.
Hal Howard of San Antonio, who
is in partnership with Albert Sam

stage reached town.
DR.. C. R. Clark, postoffice in

companied by P. S. Israel of the
same place, arrived here last even
ing by private conveyance from
Hidalgo. Dr. Clark is on an in

find the postoffices in this section
in apple-pie order.
John Kelly did not leave for
Saltillo yesterday as reported. He
did 90 over to Matamoros for the
purpose of leaving:on the tran, but
learned that travel by stage between
Camargo and Monterey is badly
at present by high water
in the creeks, and so he returned

San Ysidro Whim-Whams,

San Ysidro, March 6.-EDIroR
HERALD-Sir:-My last was from
Rio Grande, and my next will be
from that proud city. I am one of
the inquisitors of the county, and
on the 18th. l set ont for that burg.
You have correspondent there Ga
very occasional one) but I shall
write you none the less.
The only thing l can write of
here is the weather. We have had
most glorious times. More rains fell
here last week and the week before
than near the river. But, on the
other hand, the frost of Feb. Is was
heavier and did far more damage.
Nearly all who planted in January
had to replant. But, myl How
green the country is, and how thick
the plants and herbs. In some
stretches below here. there is a
profusion of small, low-growing
plant, bearing apretty, cup-shaped,
four-petated, golden blossom. The
stretches shine and glisten with
these golden blooms. first noticed
them on my return from Davis, on
the oath. ult. 1t was a dark, grey
day, but there was enough glow of
gold on the ground to light up the
gloom.
l have often read of wide-tire
wagons, but never saw one
till 1 came here. There are
about five on this ranch,
and lots more around. These people
all believe in them. was talking
with Santiago Peha yesterday
about them, and he was enthusiastic
over their good qualities. He also
praised most highly mules, as
being better and stronger than
oxen in the sand.
| hope the R. R. committee
hasn't got lost for keeps. 1t won't
do to monkey with Mr.. Lott, or the
railroad may go to Hidalgo. MIR.
Lofts letter seems to be very fair.
OF course, l know how Brownsville's
hopes have been dashed before, but
there is more in this scheme than
in any other. And Mr.. Lott is no
stranger to Brownsville.

Fort Brown Notes.

Until further orders, the regula-
ton khaki, with campaign hat and
tan shoes will be the uniform of the
day, between reveille and retreat.
At night, the prescribed blue uni
form will be worn by members Of
the guard, and may be worn by
other members of the command.
When off duty, the white uniform,
or white trousers with blue blouse,
forage cap, and black shoes may be
worn.
Lieut. Jos. C. Brady has been
relieved from duty as officer in
charge of the post garden, and
Lieut.. John C. Waterman is detailed
in his stead.
A number of enlisted men were
examined at the post hospital
Yesterday to ascertain if they are
able to do service in the Philippines
1t is expected that some will be
turned down. If so, they will either
be transferred to regiments remain
ing in the states or discharged for
disability.
A physical examination of all the
troops was held yesterday afternoon
in their respective barracks. These
examinations are made semi
monthly by the post surgeon to
prevent disease from becoming
prevalent among the enlisted men,
and to see that all affected are get
ting proper treatment. This rule
is beneficial in many ways, causing
the men to avoid disease and to
take proper care of themselves, and
to assure treatment for those who
would rather suffer secretly than to
have their names appear on the sick
list.
From this and many other facts,
it is evident that the post COM
mander has the interest of tht
enlisted men of his command al
heart, and is doing all he can fol
their welfare.
The post blacksmith's wife IS
improving, and her friends hope tc
see her out again soon.
