A TOUR OF MEXICO.
A Rare Opportunity offered to See
This Most Interesting of Countries.

A Rare Opportunity offered to See
This Most Interesting of Countries.
Ever since the completion of the
railroad from Monterey to Browns
vile, number of residents of this
city who love to travel have felt
somewhat offended by reason of the
fact that while tourists from various
parts of the United States are favored
with a round-trip excursion from Mat
amoros to Mexico City and return at
the small sum of $500, they have
been compelled to pay the full fare of
$4,000.
About a year ago it was decided
to try to get up an excursion into
Mexico, at which time Mr.. Frank c..
Pierce communicated with the differ
ent officials and ascertained what it
would cost.
During the summer months it was
not deemed advisable to make the
trip, owing to the fact that the rainy
season in Mexico sets in; but now that
the residents of Mexico are enjoying
the wonderfully cool, not exceedingly
cold, clear weather, it has been decid-
ed to make the trip, and several of
our citizens have suggested about
Dec. 5th as a good time to start.
The itinerary will be about as fol-
lows: Leaving Matamoros at $40
a. M, Mexican time. and arrive at
Torrean about 500 a. m the follow
ing day; from there to Zacatecas
where one day can be probably spent
leaving Zacatecas at 10 p. m. and ar
irving in Guanajuato the following
morning. Here will be found the fam
Gus cript containing the much adver-
tised mummies, one of the Oldest ca
thedrals in the Republic with its
famous paintings, an opera house said
to be one of the finest in the world
and city whose buildings and inhab-
itants will remind one of ancient Pal
estine Three-fifths of all the world S
production of silver has been shipped
from here and the mines that fur
nished COrtez his wealth are still be-
ing worked.

Case Dismissed joint case
against Teofilo Crixell and Will Den
man, filed by C. L. Harrison, alleg-
ing that they kept a place for the pur-
pose of betting, waging and gambling
with cards, was dismissed in the jus
tice court this morning-that against
the former by Justice Gavito, and
that against the latter upon motion of
County Attorney E. K Goodrich The
testimony produced in court was to
the effect that so far as the rooms
above his saloon are concerned that
CrixeI had nothing to do with them;
that while he leases the whole of the
building both upstairs and down,
he sub-rents to Joe Cloetta the room
where the Metropolitan restaurant is
located. and also all of the rooms
above, and that Cloetta in turn had
rerented the rooms upstairs to VIII
Denman. 1t was brought out in the
testimony that Denman wanted to
lease the upstairs room from Cloetta
but Cloetta informed him that he
himself had no lease or contract and
only rented them by the month. Then
the two of them called upon Crixell in
person and when Cloetta asked erik
ell for a lease for the rooms CriXell
refused to lease them giving as his
reasons that if the rooms were ever
used for any unlawful purposes that
he could have him (Cloetta) vacate
them. It was also proven by witness
ses that Cloetta had subsequently re-
rerented the rooms upstairs to Will
he alone was responsible for what
occurred in them.

Snccessor To Bob Dove

Washington, Nov. 26.-The Treas
Ury Department has not yet accepted
the resignation of Robert Dove, Col
Iector of Customs at Eagle Pass. but
has ordered an additional investiga-
ton of the charges filed against him.
The applicants for the place are w. w.
Collier of Eagle Pass, Captain Jack
Elgin of San AntOtnio and E. w
Baker, the latter Deputy Collector at
Eagle Pass. There is no light as to
Doves probable successor, but con-
versation with Treasury Department
officials leaves the impression that the
Department is not favorable to Ba-
ker, but would favor some one not
connected with the Office.

The telephone exchange without a
woman Central" can never hope for
very great success. The chief charm
to the man who uses the phone is to
have a soft, sweet voice at Central"
inquire. Number, please?" and
when that inquiry comes in a harsh
unsympathetic male voice, the man
at the phone feels like throwing the
receiver away and kicking himself in
the bargain. Woman, not man, was
made for Central" and the tele-
phone exchange that tries to get
along without her will, sooner or lat
er, be up against it. 1t is impossible
for male to take woman's place as
Central, for he amt built that way
and viii never be able to learn.

Local Talent Makes Big Hit-Danc-

Notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather a large audience was
present last night at the entertain
ment and dance given at the Opera
House by the young men of the city.
A programme was rendered that was
most heartily enjoyed by all and was
pronounced one of the best entertain
ments ever given here. The first
number on the programme was a bass
solo by Mr.. Jack Bridge of Houston,
who was so well received by the aud
dience and so loudly encored that he
was forced to sing another one. Mr..

A vocal solo by Mrs. Wilkins
brought applause after applause,
which plainly showed how her au-
dience enjoyed her singing. The vo-
cal solo by Mrs. GiIhousen, which is
always the case when this talented
lady sings, met with the approval of
the audience to such an extent that
she was obliged to favor them with
another selection before the ap-
plause would cease. The sketch,

Petty Pedlers of Disease.

While the health officers and citizens
of Seattle are exterminating rats, the
people of Chicago are being urged to
guard against the return of flies when
the warm season sets in. The Tribune
says: "Milk may be good and water
may be good; but as long as the fly
lights on the meat and the bread and
the butter and on other articles of food,
a household is exposed to all kinds of
filth Diseases and it urges that
"steps should be taken TO make the ty-
phoid fever fly as rare in Chicago as the
yellow fever mosquito is in New Or
leans
Man, fight against the petty spread
ers of disease should be persistent and
unrelenting. There may be scoffers
who look upon these movements as mere
medical fads. But they are not fads.
Science has definitely settled these ques.
tions. Impure milk, impure food, i'm
pure water, are each coneededly danger.
Gus. Dust is dangerous because disease
germs often cling TO the tiny particles
which the wind blows into man. eyes,
nostrils or throat and lungs.
Mosquitoes and feas are dangerous,
because, in the case of the mosquito, at
least, the blood is poisoned by an un-
clean liquid used to dilute it so that it
may be readily sucked through the in
sect's delicate syphon. The mosquito
thins the blood, and then drinks it, and
in doing SO, often afficts the victim
with deadly poison. Flies feed on
filth and often carry the germs of
filth diseases from the refuse pile to the
human body. The lesson is plain. All
such spreaders of disease should be de-
stroyed.
