The Brownsville, Hidalgo &

road. The enterprise is meeting
with more favor than was anticipat-
ed. which is very gratifying to
Col. Lott and his associates, and
very little doubt is felt that the
actual preliminary work will begin
in the very near future. The new
line will open up a vast and fertile
territory which needs but the mag
ic touch of a railroads sinuous
length to cause it to burst forth
into waving fields, fruit, flower and

homes OF a happy and prosperous
people. Now is the time to invest.

Little was said between the two

When the launch approached, Ar
thur Morris was seen in The bow.
There were several richly dressed
young women in the party. John Burt
saw at a glance that Morris and some
of his companions we're under the in
fiuence of liquor Jessie guessed as
much and her suspicious became a
certainty when Morris stepped un-
steadily to the landing and came
toward her, vacant smile mantling
his face.
"a thousand pardons, Miss Garden
he said, his voice husky and his body
very erect, but wavering. "a thou
sand pardons! Detention unavoidable,
assure you-un'void BILE detention, as
sure you! Sail right, though; sail
right now. Allow me, Miss Garden"
and he stepped forward to offer his
arm. John Burt remained by Jessie's
side.
do not dare to speak to me, sir!"
cried Jessie, shame and anger driving
the crimson to her face. Don't let
him come near me, John!" she ex-
claimed, clinging to Burt's stalwart
arm.
Stand back, Morris!" said John in
a low, clear tone, a glitter in his dark
gray eyes. You are in no condition,
sir, to meet Miss Garden"
The fashily-dressed throng of
guests was grouped behind Arthur
Morris. One of the young women
grasped Arthur Morris by the lapel
of the coat.
Come on, you fool" she said with
vindictive little laugh. Don't you
see you're not wanted?" She turned
him half round and Kingsley grabbed
him by the arm.
Come along, commodore" said that
young blood. you are in the wrong
pew, commodore! Cheer up, sad sea
dog; we may be happy yeti" And with
laughter and taunts the guests of the
Voltaire led the yachts befuddled
owner along the pier into the grove.

Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-The political
revolution in this city and in the state
Tuesday was the greatest that has &C

quarter of a century, the regular Re
publicans have been defeated for con
troll of the state treasury. Memorable
contests have been waged against Re
publlcans for this office but without
success. and 1t is worthy of note that
