GLORIOUS RAIN

Between Five and Six Iucues oil
Water Fell.
Broke Drouth Of Several Months and Will
Make Glad the Waste Places all Along
the Lower Rio Grande.

Millions of dollars would not buy
the benefits which have accrued to
this section of the country by the
heavy rains of Saturday and yes
terday.
Between FIVE and six inches of
rain fell in the lower Rio Grande
valley during the downpour and
today every depression in the land
has been turned into miniature
lake. 1t was one of the heaviest
rains experienced here for several
months, and at intervals the down
pour was torrential.
Measured by the United States
governments rain gauge here, FIVE
and six-tenths inches of rain fell at
Brownsville between Saturday at
10: 80 p. m. and this morning at s
O'Clock. Five inches of this water
fell Saturday night.
Reports from Hidalgo, Mercedes,
Raymondville and other places in
the valley are that several inches of
rain fell Saturday night. The
drouth during the past few weeks
had begun to assume serious pro-
portions and the land was thirst
ing greatly for the refreshing
draughts which came with the late
rain.
There is no other land which
can so easily recover from the eff
fects of drouth as the lower Rio
Grande valley. Even today the
grass is green, the flowers are
brighter than ever and the grow
ing crops slow signs of the life
giving qualities of the soil when a
little water is provided to aid it.
Reports from all over the state
show that the rain is general and
at the signal station of the govern
ment here it was stated today that
the rain fell over many other parts
of the country outside of the state.
Coming at this time of the year,
the rain assures one of the best
spring seasons which southwest
Texas has yet experienced. The |
water will put the ground in good |
condition to a considerable depth |
and will furnish nourishment for
the crops for long time to come,
even if the tops of the plants might
later need a slight drenching.
Corn is just high enough to need
{ good rain in this section to send
it nearly to maturity.
The same is true of the cotton
crop. and vegetables, and with the
growth of the grass. the cattle in
dustry will greatly be benefited as
well. Creeks, warer-holes and
tanks have been filled with water
which will last for long time.

AGED BANKER
ASKS FOR TRIAL

Chicago. Jan. 2S.-'I have just
begun to fight" declares the aged
John Il. Walsh. recently convicted of
misapplication of the funds of the
wrecked Chicago National bank. of
which he was president. Walsh s
attorneys appeared before the court
today 10 argue n motion for a new
trial. The aged financier, although
broken in health and fortune. is con-
fident that he will yet be acquitted
and maintains the same determina-
tion that enabled him to rise from
an Irish immigrant lad to a multi
millionaire and the owner of rail-
roads, banks and newspapers.
Walsh is now at liberty on bond,
pending the decision of the court in
today's application for new trial.
If the verdict should be sustained,
Walsh could be sentenced to a total
of $40 years in prison. He was con-
victed on 81 counts, and the penalty
fixed by statute is not less than five
nor more than ten years imprison-
ment on each count.
Assistant District Attorney Dobyns
Is confident in his declaration that
the verdict will stand, and that 1t
Will have a wholesome effect upon

United States Comptroller William
r. Ridgley is quoted as saying that,
in his opinion, there can be found no
basis for n new trial or reversal of
the verdict that will be taken SER
iuusly by any court. He asserts that
the trail was uniformly fair, and
that the result has already had a very
beneficial effect ON the banking prac-
tives of the entire country.
Walsh's attorneys are hopeful of
sinally securing the acquittal of their
client. They assert that there was
in the evidence no clear cut issue
presented to the distinct transaction,
snd that the jury was overwhelmed
by mass of unconnected testimony
having no direct bearing on the trans
actions of which Walsh was con
victed.
John II. Walsh came to this coun-
try in 1917, when 10 years old, and
Logan his career in Chicago as a
rewsboy. He was at one time the
principal owner of the Chicago
Inter-Ocean, and later of the Herald
and the Chronicle. The latter paper

THE GAME WARDEN
AFTER POT HUNTERS

Chas. Purinton. chief game warder
for this district, arrived in town last
evening. His mission here Is to look
after the elk north of town. Several
bands are holding down their old
stamping grounds in the vicinity oil
the hot springs and can be seen al
most daily from the Hahn's Peak
road. They should not be molested
and yet word has reached the warden
that the pot hunters are keeping the
trail hot and If not checked will soon
exterminate every elk on the range
north of town.
The very ones who are supposed to
stop the game law violators are negli-
gent in their duty and pay no atten-
ton to what is going on until it is
too late to act. Elk are being killed
every winter, but 1t is seldom that
any one Is prosecuted. About this
time last winter Copper Ridge pros
pector was caught with elk meat in
his possession. He was taken before
justice of the peace and heavily
fined. This was the first conviction
to our knowledge and yet both deer
and elk, so we are informed, are be-
ing slaughtered both In and cut of
season.
Warden Purinton informed the
Sentinel that the elk are going to be
protected in the future, and that no
leniency will be shown the pot and
head hunters.-Steamboat (Routt
