More san Antonio Premiums.

San Angelo stockmen are not
the only ones to go from this sec
ton to San Antonio and get
prizes and blue ribbons. They
did we'll, exceptionally well, but
there is another industry in San
Angelo whose devotees are away
up in G in efficiency and art.
Reference is made to the fact that
in the face Of very strong compe-
tition Mr. G. A. Neumann, of this
city, was awarded first prizes on
photographs. Mr.. Neumann had
only 8 photographs on exhibition.
There were only 5 prizes. Mr..
Neumann took two of them.
Mr.. Neumann's honors consist
of diploma and blue ribbon on
group" picture also on Inter
ior." He was notified Tuesday of
his good fortune and Wednesday
was IN proud possession of two
blue ribbons attached to two very
fine photographs. His m IL y
friends will be pleased to learn OF
his good luck.
Despite the fact that Mr.. Neu'
mann is not in the same,class with
the large studios of the cities hit
work showed up extremely vel
beside their work. He has re-
ceived many complimentary let
tiers on his work from people who
saw his exhibits at San Antonio
He has a diploma won in Sal

Pelicans Killed Here.

Last Saturday evening two
young negro men came walking
in town bearing a curious load
They had been out duck hunting
on Lipan Flat. and near q water
hole, killed four full grown peli-
cans.
These birds we're very probably
driven from the Gulf coast by
recent storms and the water
holes from the late rains attracted
them. The negroes carried the
four birds by tying their necks to-
gether and hanging them over q
pole. They each carried an end
of the pole on their shoulders,
even then, the birds feet dragged
the ground. The average weight
OF each bird is about 20 pounds,
and the wings measured eight feet
from tip to tip.
Chactaw George is mounting
the birds for Jake Allen, who
bought them, and they will be
on exhibition in Mr.. Allen
saloon as soon as mounted.

City Council Meeting.

The City Council met Tuesday
night in the Commissioners Court
Room. A full quorum was pres
ent.
The matter of opening Abe
street was taken up and S275. was
appropriated to buy the property
for the extension of the street.
1t was announced that the prop
erty would not have to be con-
demned but would be bought out
right, the owner of same having
agreed to this proposition.
The matter of opening Pecan
street was discussed but no action
was taken.
The council is very ANXIOUS to
have the side walk ordinance en-
forced but it was suggested that
property owners were placed at II
disadvantage in regard to build
ing of sidewalks 30 long as the
habit of driving across vacant lots
was practised. The council de-
clded that it would be proper to
prosecute all drivers of vehicles
who drove through vacant lots
and over sidewalks other than
those places especially prepared
for vehicle crossings.

CURIOS UNDER DECKS.
Customs officials Seize Struggled
Oriental Goods Worth SIS, 900.

A double truckload of curious and rare carvings
yesterday represented the largest seizure OF SNUG
gled goods made for many months In this port
They came from the steamer Indrawadi. consigned
to Funch. Edge & Co.. from Kobe, Mol, Shanghai.
Manila, Singapore. Suez and Port Said
The Customs officials have been watching the
steamers from these ports for some time, it hav-
ing to their knowledge that smuggling on
large scale was going on Yesterday when the
manifest of the Indrawadi was sent to the Collector
OF the Port it sent back to Captain Cullington
with request that he look over 1T and see II
there were any omissions. Captain Cullington said
that his entire cargo had been entered on the
manifest.
Treasury Agents Cooley and O'Neill then visited
the steamer, and told Captain CullingtOn that de-
spite his assertion that everything had been duly
entered the manifest they would search the
entire vessel The two agents first sounded all me
deck plankings, and wherever there was a sus
picious sound ripped up the boards being rewarded
by the discovery of several caches. They then
entered the hold and made a thorough search
Forward they found bulkhead that had no APP
parent excuse for existing. Sledges requis-
toned from the carpenter and the bulkhead
smashed In. Stored behind 1t they found chest
after chest full of costly carvings and Oriental
curios Then returning the tools to the carpenters
room. Cooley thought to pry open suspiciously
heavily iron bound and strongly locked carpenters
chest. On top the usual assortment of chisels
and files but when this tray lifted the officers
found the remainder of the chest full OF carved
ivory, wooden and jade ornaments.
Forty-two cases of Oriental curios, three sets Of
silk and ebony screens four boxes of ostrich and
peacock plumes. several boxes of the finest quality
of china tea services, hundreds of silk handker-
chiefs found in and concealed In the sailors
hunks. several lots of Satsuma vases and hundreds
of small carved ivory and wooden figures, were
seized. The screens confscated stand four
feet high, and have carved ebony frames backed
with the heaviest china silk deliberately embroid-
cred with dragons. butterflies and other Oriental
designs.
The carvings found in the carpenters chest. 1t IS
believed, formed part OF the loot taken from the
Winter Palace at Picking by the soldiers OF the
allied powers. When the customs officials sought
to find an owner for the goods. they unsuc-
cessfu- The captain was mucn surprised to think
they could have got aboard without his knowI-
edge. and so were the crew and the other officers.
When the two Treasury agents first went on
board the Indrawadi they saw half a dozen deal
ers in Oriental goods on the wharf. The value Of
the seized goods is estimated 10 be over 5000 No
arrests were made
