GRAPES RIPEN
EARLY IN TEXAS
Fine Varieties Beat California Product
Some Two Months.

Grapes, grown to be offered up
on the market for two to three
months ahead of those from any
other part of the United States,
have been successfully raised in
Texas and baskets full have been
received in Houston. They were
shipped from the Rio Grande nur-

market from these vineyard. Mus
catels ripened in May but the crop
was lost.
The grape industry in Texas has
never before been exploited. The
experiment has developed the fact
that in the Rio Grande country
the fruit may be produced at time
of the year far and away ahead of
the California producers in quanti-
ties that may be unlimited and
command fancy price upon the
market.
Yield after 80 months of cultiva-
ton is Approximately IS pounds to

and golden Hamburg varieties.
1t is stated that the successful

ROBIN COMES TO BREAKFAST.

An English gentleman has tame
robin which carries his mate plenti-
full supplies Of oatcake crumbs, but
ter, bits of candy and other dclica-
cies. And when he has to cater for
the little ones us well, he is really to
be pitied SO busy is he that he ne
elects his toilet. and his generous
donor in the mansion has to be satis-
fed with hurried scraps of song.
He gets quite fearless in his anx-
iety for his family and will join his
human friend at breakfast and help
himself to buttered toast without in
vitation. 1t is no use to break piece
for Robin; his way Is to hop on the
plate and peck off for himself what
he considers the daintiest bits. He
has been known to come in five times
during breakfast.
At night o window is left open
that he may come in for crumbs
when he pleases. Should all the win
dows be shut Robin sits on the win
dow sill and sings loudly. Nobody
can resist that appeal as he knows
from experience. And when he
wishes to get out he futters from
room to room uttering little fright
ened "Chick, chick!" And the fam-
lily know that tho cat often lies IN
wait for him. and some one Will rush
to the rescue at once.

DEATH OF A MAN EATER


Alfred Packer, known throughout
the West as the Man Eater, was
found dead lately in a lonely cabin
in Colorado. Many years ago Packer
was employed to guide party of five
men from Salt Lake into New Mex

and encountered severe snowstorm.
Packer alone survived and became a
fugitive from justice. 1t was claimed
that he killed his five companions
and ate a part Of one body to sustain
life. Later Packer was arrested and
sent to the penitentiary, being re.
leased many years afterward. Pack.
er claimed that one OF his compan.
ions killed the other four while In.

he ate part Of one Of the bodies while
crazed with hunger. Now Packer
himself dies lonely and miserable

fear and dread.
The writer of this used to hunt big

B. B. Brooks, now Governor Of Wyo.
ming. Governor Brooks while living
alone in the mountains once had a
call from Packer and entertained him
several days. He did not know at
the time that he was entertaining
Packer, but afterward saw him in
prison and recognized him. Governor
Brooks says Packer was the most
wretched man he ever knew; he was
up at all hours Of the night aud had
a hunted look. - Atchison (Kan ="

Brief Mention.
Chinese Walking.
From The New York Press

from the New 1Ork IreSS
That tie Chinaman and the American
Indian came from the same stock is an
chronological fact. so far as reasonable de-
ductious can be made. The term Indian
file Is as old az the valley of the Column
bia, through which the Indians made their
way into the United States ages before
We were happily discovered by Columbus
The Indians OF today amount TO nothing,
not even Antonio Apache. the bewigged
lmpOstOr Of the four hundred. But in their
habit OF travelling in single file the Chinese
prove their relationship TO the red man
OF America.
In trailing after each other through the
streets the Chinese never converse. They
are as silent as the Sphinx. The Italians,
on the other hand. gibble- gable gobbIe.
Each cndcayurs to speak louder than the
other. and all want To talk at the same
time This is additional evidence that the
two races are unrelated.
