Cord Wood Subscribers.

You can never rely on cord wood or
pole wood subscription carrying you
through a cold winter. An Arkansas
editor started his paper going with twen-
ty.eight loads Of wood subscribers. He
figured that lie could go through the
winter in good shape Oh fourteen loads
OF wood and have fourteen loads to sell
to get an overcoat and a pair Of shoes.
Hut when the wood was delivered he
found that the twenty eight loads on sub
scription would not stack up as high as
fourteen loads of cash wood, so had to go
through the winter with all old pair of
gum shoes and monkey jacket. The
next winter only seven subscription loads
were delivered along in June and July
following. TOO late to be Of any practi.

Considerable interest has devel-
oped at lrmy Headquarters over the
| opposition of citizens of Point Isabel
/ to the removal of the bodies of the
soldiers of the American army that
were buried at that place just after
| the battle of Palo alto between the
American acmy and the Mexicans in
1913, says the San Antonio Express.
Several months ago a report was
forwarded to Post headquarters st
San Antonio. and from there to
Washington, from Point Isabel, to
the effect that number of bones and
skulls had been plowed up in what
was formerly an old churchyard bur-
ial ground, but which had been con-
verted into a field nearly a quarter
of a century ago; that a portion of this
ground is sloping and that the heavy
rains Of last fall had likewise washed
away the soil in the old churchyard
and exposed considerable number
of bones, which were assumed to be
the bones of the long
soldiers.
No stone or head-piece, not even a
mound remained in this burying
ground to mark the resting place of
the dead soldiers. so that it is not
known how many lie buried there.
Citizens of Point Isabel recently
forwarded to Washington a petition
protesting against removal of the
bodies, after learning that the depart
ment had received notice of the ex-
posing of human bones in the old
field, and that there was probability
that actor, would be taken looking
to the removal of all bones found; in
short, that the department would
have extensive investigation made
and doubtless remove the bodies to
Brownsville
This petition was received at Wash
ington, but not until after the depart
ment had issued instructions to have
bids submitted on the cost of remov-
ing the soldiers bodies from Point
Isabel. Bids were submitted, the low
est being $3.50 for the removal of
each soldiers body. placed in a box
fOxlOX26 inches, put on board cars
at Point Isabel. The bids will be
forwarded to Washington by the
chief quartermaster at the local post
In their petition of protest. citizens
of Point Isabel have promised, if the
bodies be allowed to remain there, to
prepare large burial ground and re-
move the bodies of all the dead to
this new place of burial and place an
iron fence around it, marking also
each grave with suitable stone. 1t
is not known how many bodies are
buried at this place, but the quarter
master places his estimate at 300 to
400, which, he says, is based upon
the number of soldiers killed in the
battle of Palo Alto

TUESDAY. MARCH 16, 1908.
BRIDGE CONJECTURE.

Where will the international
bridge be located?"
This is the. question to which most
Brownsville people are devoting a
large amount of their spare moments.
Naturally Brownsville wants the
bridge located at some convenient
place, especially as it is to include a
foot bridge. IL it should be placed a
mile above or below town, it would
be of little use for foot passengers.
Otherwise, of course. it would mat
ter very little to the people in gen.
eral whether the bridge were inside
the city limits or not.
But, when it comes to a proposal
10 place the bridge at Sam Fordyce,
that gives the question even greater
interest than before for our citizens
AS to whether there be anything Sc
rious in the suggestion made by the
managing director of the Brownsville
road, when he informed a Herald re-
porter yesterday that such might be
done, if the desired site in Browns
vile could not be secured. The Her
aid cannot say. OF course. the build
ers of the bridge cannot be blamed
for expecting to secure the site at a
reasonable figure. Some concessions
will also be expected from the city
governments of both Matamoros and
Brownsville. What thes are. has
note yet been made known. If they
are reasonable, however, it is to
be expected that the two cities will
grant them.
1t is not likely that the bridge will
viii be built at Sam Fordyce. as that
would require another act of con-
gress and a new concession from
Mexico, and yet there is nothing to
bind the company to build within
"a mile or more of the site which it is
believed is most favored-that is,
near the freight ferry 1t there
fore behooves the citizens to interest
themselves in the matter and see if
some friendly agreement may not be
reached with the bridge builders.

and no previous notice of the coming
of Mai. Ripley had been received.
Quite a number also are still without

The boys made very good show
