The chief requisite for membership
in the new club Is lot of nerve. 1t

James W. Kelley is president of the
club, and meetings are being held in
the city passenger office of the MOffat

Other prominent members are Clar-

GROWING DATES IN TEXAS.
Successful Experiments With Artificial
Poltination of Palm Trees.

The first perfect dates ever grown
in Texas are now being harvested from
two trees at the home Of Fred Wool
fey in Laredo, says special dispatch
to the New York Times. The date
palm trees have grown and thrived
throughout the lower Rio Grande re-
gion for more than half century, and
on the Mexican side of the river the
tree has flourlshed for fully a century.
During all these years it has been I'M
productive. The trees were never pol
linated. Without artificial pollination
the date flower is incapable of produc-
ing perfect fruit.
Harvey c. Stiles, noted hortlcul-
turist, became interested in the date
palm trees of the Laredo section two
years ago. He found that while they
grow to perfection and were to all ap-
pearances capable of bearing great
quantities of fruit, they were either
entirely barren or the fruit which they
grew was immature and worthless.
He began experimenting with artificial
pollination, and his success was mar
velous. He 'pollinated two trees last
year, one at Corpus Christi and the
other at Brownsville. These first eX-
periments proved to him that the
many trees which are already growing
throughout the Laredo section of the
state could be made a source of wealth
If the artificial method of fruition was
| carried out
Mr.. Woolfey became interested III
the pOllinatiOn experiments, and last
spring he took great care in pollinat-
ing the two trees which grow in his
yard at Laredo. He succeeded in per
fectfng nearly every cluster of dates,
and each tree will produce nearly 400
pounds of the fruit. The first of the
| fruit is now being gathered.
Il predict that the date will become
staple and famous product of semi
| tropic Texas" said Mr.. Stiles. The
| best, most ideal date section is that
| lying along the river southwark from
| Laredo and coastward. but not toe
| near the coast, for, while the date tree
| thriveS in all its tropic beauty and
| righteousness near the coast and pro
duces abundant fruit of good flavor
| yet the fruit from the sections. hot and
| dry, free from humidity is the only
| date fruit valuable for commercial
| uses"

In the landing of the Three-Eye

another laurel to its wreath of achieve.

Apart from the fact that it has had A
prominent place in the columns of the

press of the states of Illinois and Iowa,
Throughout the summer, the city's

worth and value.
Rock Island has triumphed. 1t has
won pennant. And the fame does not

this. The pennant has been won this
year. but the Islanders are the cham

season that is to come, and so they
will be mentioned throughout next

Until the rank is wrested from them

the champions this year. So that the

Weak Apologies.

Not only has Secretary Taft earned
him, "The Great Postponer," but he is
also entitled to the questionable honor
of being Chief ApolOgist for the adj
ministratiOn. In his political az
dresses on his journey across the con-
tinent, the war secretary has tried TO
excuse the fact that all the admins
tration prosecutions against railroad
prosecutions and shippers have been
brought under the Elkins law, which
|carries no Imprisonment penalty, as
did the older law it superseded on the
ground that "all acts prosecuted were
committed before the passage of the
rate bill" Yet in the administration s
ard Oil violations that have taken place
since the enactment of the rate law
which carries an Imprisonment clause
are enumerated at some length. Mr.

railroad companies and trusts been as
| clearly known to congress and the pub

ed as when the rate bill was passed
the Elkins bill would not have passed
so smoothly" Well, the El5ins law
was enacted in 1905, the Legislators

considered the practices of the rail
roads at that early day of a character
calculated to make the Imprisonment
clause in that law a wise and neces
sary means of restraint over them.
What improvements in the practices
of railroad corporations and trusts from
1887 to 1903 induced the republican
congress of the latter year to eliminate
| the restraining Imprisonment clause
If the acts the administration have

not use the Sherman antitrust act o.
1890, which contains an Imprisonment
clause? Mr.. Taft's apologies are a.

Judge Shelby has refused to issue an
injunction, sought by the Alabama rail

authorities from enforcing new rate
order recently issued by the Alabama

that there was no presumption to be-

held that the commission had acted in
good faith and that the order reducing
the rate was not confiscatory. Fol-
