he would be losing something he

The Rio Grande road was never

cure immigration or have the coun-
try along their line settled up by

Spasmodic attempts to do some

would not permit that pictures re-
moval by any manner of means. So
often had women been pictured in all

hagen agreed that the picture that
had caused the sensation and which
exposed to some extent mans physic-

from their sight. When six porters
attempted to remove the offending
picture they were set upon by women
and driven from the rooms. Who
