People interested in religious
work in Brownsville, and especial
ly the Baptist denomination, will
be glad to know that at a meeting
of the directors of the Baptist gen.
eral convention of Texas. held at
Dallas on August 29. il was de-
cided to appropriate the sum of
$1,000 for Baptist church build
ing in Brownsville. This sum
will be augmented by donations
and otherwise, and il will not be
long before the Baptist denomina-
ton will have its own place of
worship.
Customs Inspector ]. L. Lar-
dunn was here today from Santa
Maria. He says weather is dry in
his section, but that is what is
needed while cotton is being gath
cred. Mr.. Landrum says he made
a splendid cotton crop this year.
He has 100 acres in cotton from
which will gather 100 bales or
more. The price is very good, but
Mr.. Landrum has not sold yet.
He thinks this is the best cotton
country in the United States, and
a great many people will agree
with him.
One hundred and sixty eight
bales of cotton have been exported
to Mexico by Juan H. Fernandez.
The duty on cotton is about three
quarters of a cent per pound, and
shippers are able to pay this duty
and then make profit above the
price paid in the United States.
Mr.. Fernandez says the price varies
according to the demand, and the
class of cotton shipped. Mexico
consumes a great quantity of cot
ton and large shipments are made
from the different ports Of this coun-
try. THE HERALD learns the price
paid in Mexico is "a cents per
100 pounds.
THE HERALD Is very sorry TO
learn that A. ID. Childress and
family are soon to leave Browns
vile. Their household goods are
being packed preparatory to ship
ment and Mrs. Childress and her
mother expect to leave this week
for Beaumont. Mr.. Childress viii
probably bid farewell to Browns
vile next week, temporarily at
least. The gentleman is a pro-
gressive citizen, one we can III
afford to lose, and his decision TO
leave this section is matter of ex-
IRENE regret. Mr.. Childress was
ever on the alert for the advance
ment and upbuilding of the Browns
vile country, and has done as much
or more than any one man here,
tor the development OF a country
in which he had an abiding faith.
As manager of the Brownsville
Land & Town company, he put
forth every effort to prove the re-
sourcefulness of the section, and
did not hesitate to give both time
and money for the furtherance OF
development when occasion de-
manded. Mr.. ChildreSs and family
have been great additions to the
social circles of Brownsville, and
will be greatly missed. THE HER
AID while wishing the family the
greatest success wherever they
may cast their lot, also INDUCES
the hope that their absence is only
temporary, and that they may
some day again become citizens of
our city.

READY FOR
HOT SANDS
Mystic Shriners will
Do the Tricks
Today.

The hot sands of the desert of Wal
temperature, and today the novices
who would become mobiles of the Mys-
tic Shrine will run the gauntlet over
these same warm sands.
Those who survive the ordeal will be
permitted to attend the banquet of the
Shriners to be held tonight at the Royal
Hawaiian Hotel. Practically the whole
day will be spent in attending to the
novitiates by those who have gone be-
fore. The things which the old men,
bers contemplate doing to the novices
are terrible even to think about, and
therefore to save the new ones any
torment in advance, the Advertiser re-
Trains from publishing the program.
However, Progress Hall has been
fitted up in approved style for the
event. The torture-chamber is all pre-
pared. There is the spiked toboggan;
the electric-heated steel plates over
which the novices are required to walk,
or to sit; there is the ice-cold plunge;
the loop-the-loop apparatus; the cam
non from which the novices are to be
blown through air and, in honor of
Sam Johnson's debut, it is said The
knout and other forms of Russian tor
ture will be handy. 1t is lively bunch
of fellows who have agreed to stand the
trial. They have all been dieting this

Yesterday morning in the Stock Ex-
change there was a pretty little cere-
mony. Broker Robert Single, who is
to undergo the ordeal, and who has
taken out accident insurance, was the
recipient of a little farewell remem-
brance from his fellow brokers. 1t was
an affecting scene and brought tears
to the eyes of those ca1lous stock job
bers. They realized that perhaps for
the last time, or maybe for only a
week, Robert might be out of their
sight With impressive ceremony and
with a neat address President Morgan
presented Robert with a pad of ashes
tos. Robert was overcome with emo
ton and he and all the brokers in at
tendance We're compelled to moisten
their threats before business could be
proceeded with.

Two More Fires.

About five O'Clock on Friday eve
ming the department WAS called to the
residence of X. X. Wick in Curtin's
addition, where burning chimney
caused them to turn in an alarm. No
damage of any consequence resulted.
Saturday night about 1920 O'Clock
Herb Headington's barn was de-
stroyed by fire, and it burned very
rapidly, being beyond the control of
the department before the firemen ar
rived. Two stations persisted in the
flames, hut they succeeded in getting
out COW and calf that were i'll the
barn. The loss is quite heavy, and
the origin of the fire is unknown. 1t
is thought by some that it might have
started from sparks from the train
which passed by short time before.
Besides the horses about 100 chick
ems, some harness, grain and con-
siderable hay was lost, in all amount
ing to about $1,000 with $1,000 in
surance.

coat in front of Easton's store that
looked about his size he decided to

placed in Jail, afterward being given

told him he would let him go if he
would leave town, but the hobo said
he liked the town pretty well and
