Senators Much Alike.

Senator Simmons of North Carolina,
and Senator Taliaferro. of Florida, look
enough alike to be twin brothers.
They arc about the same size and
build; each has heavy crop of hair,
which is kept closely trimmed, and
their short, stubby mustaches are
much alike. Both have dark eyes
and there is probably not two pounds
difference in their respective weights
If it were not for the fact that the
Florida senator has few more gray
hairs in his head than his North Caro-
lima colleague it would be almost inn
possible for the senate employees to
tell them apart.

Mark Twain tells this story, the
moral of which you may supply your
self: II went to church one time and
was so impressed by what the preach
err told me about the poor heather
that was ready to give up hundred
dollars of my own money and even go
out and borrow more to send t. the
heather. But the minister preached
too long, and my enthusiasm began to
drop about $25 a drop till there was
nothing left for the poor heather, and
by the time he was through and the
collection was taken up stole ten
cents off the plate. "-Southwestern's

NEGROES GUILT SURE.
BELIEF ENTERTAINED BY MAJ.
PENRosE HIMSELF.
SHELLS And CLIPS EVIDENCE,
Their Discovery the Morning After
Raid Forced Him UnwllIlnsly to
the Conclusion.

San Antonio, Tex; The Penrose
court martial took a rather surprising
and sensational turn Thursday when
the prosecution introduced and had
read to the court letter written by
Maj. Penrose to the Secretary of War
at Washington, d. c., on Aug. Is, just
two days after the raid. In this let
ter, which is in the nature of an of
fetal report, and his subsequent in
vestigation, Mai. Penrose stated that
the evidence of the shells and clips
was conclusive to his mind that his
men had committed the crime and he
goes SO far as to outline how the
crime was probably committed.
Maj. A. P. Blossom, assistant in
spector general of the Southwestern
Division, who made two Investigations
of the affair, was on the stand. His
testimony was largely of technical
nature, relating to bullet holes and
the probable direction of bullets. Maj
blossoms reports have been attacked
SO much in the congressional discus.
sions of the affair and elsewhere that
he appears to feel that his Official
reputation is about as much at stake
as that of Mai Penrose's and at times
he became rather heated in his state
ments, at one time appealing to the
court in defense of his right to some
latitude in making explanations.
The cross-examination of Lenora
Sanchez, the Mexican woman who
heard the negro soldier telling that
the town would be shot up on the day
on which the raid occurred, at night,
was completed. Her evidence brought
out nothing new.
The letter of Mai. Penrose was a
very lengthy document. The most i'm
portant portions, bearing on the
Brownsville raid, are as follows:
Il then expressed my deep regret
to the committee that such fright
full crime should have happened and
that the evidence pointed so strongly
to its being committed by my mem
and while it had been impossible for
me, up to the present time, to fix the
blame upon any one, should never
cease my endeavors to detect the
criminals, and, if found, would prompt
ly turn them over to the proper au
thoritieg: $50 T.
Were it moi for the damaging evi-
dence of the empty shells and used
clips, l should be of the firm belief
that none Of my men were in any way
connected with the crime, but with
this fact so painfully before me, am
not only firmly convinced it was per.
petrated by men of this command,
but that it was carefully planned be-
forehand, From testimony gathered
by the citizens committee and given
by DR.. Combe, believe from seven to
ten men were implicated in this mat
ter. Some one of them must have had
a key to the gunrack, and after check
roll call was talzen-for all were re-
ported present at II p. m. roll CALI

shooting, returned while the compan-
les were forming and at some time
