FOR A
NIGHT TRAIN
Is Being Circulated in the City
Of Brownsville.
Also in the towns Along the Branch
Road from Harrington to Sam
FOrdycc as Well as al OImitO
and San BcnitO.

A strenuous effort is being made
in Brownsville, and all the towns
at this end of the line to induce
the management of the Gulf Coast
Line to put on a night train SER
vice between Houston and Browns
vile. In Houston the business men
are working together to bring
about the same service, and have
already interviewed Mr.. Miller on
the subject. The following is a
copy of the petition that business
men here are being asked to sign.
u. F. Miller,
President of the St. Louis,
Brownsville. & Mexico Railroad.
Dear Sir: The patrons of your
line along the Rio Grande Valley
ask and respectfully petition in
the interests of the development of
this country, and the convenience
of the people attracted to this Sec
ton by the advertisements Of the
railroads and others for a night
service with sleeper or the main
line from Bay City to Brownsville
and to Houston from Browns
vile.
We also respectfully request that

TOWNS DEVELOPING.

The towns of the Southwestern
country are.developing at remark
bic rate, and there is every pros
pect of significant growth in in
dustries and factories within the
next few years. Brownsville is
booming so substantially that it is
not justice to the thriving town to
call it a boom, and Corpus
Christi, Beeville and the other
Southwestern cities are experience
ing a period of activity never be-
fore known.
An electric light plant and wa
terworks will be built at Browns
vile, and at Corpus Christi big
electric power plant is being erect
ed. Corpus Christi has doubled in
population in twelve months time,
and every interest in the city is
developing as it has never develop
ed before. Real estate values have
jumped IS and so per cent during
the past two years, and the same
may be said of every part of the
Brownsville region.
Fifteen years ago land was for
sale at s. per acre, and then no
purchasers could be found. The
same land today can not be had for
less than $50 and SIS per acre,
and great tracts of the country are
not for sale at any price. This real
estate situation, which has remain
ed steady throughout number o.
months now and may be fairly de-
pended upon t. be substantial, is
the best evidence that could be had

the train on the branch line be
run to connect at Harrington with
both the north and south main line
train. thus enabling those who have
business to transact on the branch
line to do so without under loss of
time.
We believe this change would
benefit the railroad as well as the
many companies who are spending
large sums of money in the de-
velopment of the valley, 10 say
nothing of the convenience of the
travelling public. -

REsoURcps OF CHURCH.
Preach Clergy to Meet to Discuss Ways
 and Means.

Paris. Jan. 14.---Having decided in advance to adhere to the recent papal encyclical the work of the French Episcopate which meets tomorrow will be Iargelyl confined to discussion. the practical matters involved in the con- demnation of the amended church and state separation law and the benefit which can be obtained from the pub lie meetings law of the 1901.
 The question of the church's resour- ces will be appraised and the cardinals and some of the bishops who were again in session today have virtually resolved to recommend the establish ment of central fuAd In all dioceses. It is doubtful, however, whether the legal pIenafy assembly will approve the re reorganization of the seminaries as superior theological schools in accor- dance with the law of 1875 under which a number of them already have been re-opened.
 The Petite Republique. while it does not publish the text of the documents asserts today that MonsAgnor Mon tagninrs papers prove that the papal nunciature was constantly dabbling in politics and had regular relations with the opposition deputies and senators and members of the Legitimist and Bonapartist parties and was in corres- pondence with Emile Olivier. the ex- minister of Napoleon ILL
 The paper also says that it has proof that through the Portuguese govern ment the government of France learned the Vaticans circular previous to the visit of ex- President Loubet to Italy was not identical in its wording in the case of all the powers.

 Another convinctipn that forces itself evidence, especially that of those wit nesses who testifisd with reference. to the beginning of the firing, and what took place along the garrison road and behind the garrison wall, with the statements of four or five witnesses as to the firing of bullets from the upper galleries or porches of the barracks- "a fact corroborated by the alignment of the bullet holes in the houses in the garrison road---is that what took place on the porches and just back or tne assembly of the men and the walking along the porches could not have taken place without awakening and attract- ing the attention of all who were In the barracks. privates and the commis- stoned officers, whether asleep. or not, and that it is utterly impossible that they should not have been aware of what was going on when the firing continued for at least eight or ten minutes thereafter. That a guard which was on no watch , ,t with hsrs ssrseans s5s frst firing took place. shuld not have been aware that this was the work ot their comrades Is utterly impossible.

In the face of the evidence already reviewed, the denials under oath by the men of the battalion do not evidence that men of this battalion did do the shooting, contained in the tes- timony already submitted to the Sens ate and confirmed by the evidence herewith transmitted

 Taking the shells and the bullets to- gether, the proof is conclusive that the new Springfield eife was the weapon used by the midnight assassins and could not by any possibility have been any other rife of any kind in the world.

Each man illustrates in himself the
law of the harvest. Whatsoever he
sows he reaps. He cannot sow one
kind of seed and reap another kind OF
harvest. If he sows to the flesh he
will reap to the flesh; if he soWs to the
spirit he will reap to the spirit. Youth
is the plastic, formative period of life.
During the years of susceptibility each
young man is electrOtyping his eternal
destiny Let him remembe his Gre

evil days come and the years draw
nigh when his moral nature, no longer
susceptible and formative, shall be-

TERCOURSE
am a Christian because Christian
ity gives me a hope for the future
ent alone. The faculty of memory calls
up the past. The faculty of expecta-
ton reaches out toward the future. A
times comes to every man when he
wakes up to the fact that his life is a
flaw He asks, What is next? He
longs for permanency. He yearns for
certainty in The future. This life
may be compared to porch. A porch
is a very important apartment. 1t is a
good introduction to house. 1t is
good protection to the doorway in the
winter. In summer it is a good place
to rest and enjoy the shade and cool
ing breezes. Take away the house and
the porch has no value, no meaning.
The billiards. of winter rush through
it. In summer the heat and sun beat
on all sides. So this life. as an intro
duction to an eternal life, has much
meaning and definite purpose. But
if there is no life beyond it has no
meaning, no value.-Rev. DR.. David S.
