Point Isabel Items
To The Herald :


Isabel, Texas, March 22.-It is the
hope of the people of Isabel that the
war department will countermand the
order to remove the bones of the bur-
led soldiers of Gen. Taylor from their
quiet resting place here and suitably
repair and beautify the old Taylor
burying ground with a monument to
the memory of the hallowed patriots
who sacrificed their lives here, and at
Palo Alto in defense of the stars
and stripes 1t would be almost i'm
possible to exhume all the remains,
and to take a few and leave a multi
tude unmarked and unhonored, would
not comport with the sacred senti-
ment that prompts the government to
look after the graves of the dead
We are still appealing to congress
and to the war department to let
these holy ashes rest in peace, and
properly mark the spot with simple
appropriate monument.
This request is reasonable and
meets the hearty approval of every
person who has seen the ground.
And it is only just.
We count it sacred trust,
To guard their holy dust.

of the evening by rendering several
fine selections.
A most interesting feature of the
evening succeeding the serving of re-
freshments was the stereopticon dis
play given by the Houston visitors,
showing the leading business houses
and prominent business men and citi-
zens of Houston.
Carson park, which was kindly
loaned by Judge E. c. Forto for the
occasion was lighted with many vari-
colored electric lights, which were
strung from the large willow trees.
Seats were provided for the immense
crowd and without doubt one of the
largest crowds ever gathered in
Brownsville was present. The citizens
seemed to enjoy the occasion to the
fullest extent and exerted themselves
to make their guests enjoy it equally
as well. The latter seemed in a
most responsive mood and assisted
their entertainers in making the
event one long to be remembered in
the annals of Brownsville.
At the conclusion of the evening at
the park, many of the Houstonians
the sights there for a while.
This morning the visitors spent
calling upon the various merchants of
Brownsville, distributing souvenirs,
and getting acquainted with the trade
and cultivating closer relations with
the business life of this city.
At nine-thirty this morning the
Herb & Lewis band. fourteen strong
who accompanied the Houston bust
ness men on this trip paraded the
principal streets of the city, headed
by Charley Dobbins, the general pas
senger agent of the Santa Fe road,

the number being the song entitled
| Houston, sang by six of the negro
musicians, to the air of "Auld Lang
Syne.' This Immediately preceded
the departure of the eXcursionists.
At eleven a. M, the special train left
with the Houston visitors, who went

the line as announced in yesterdays

left with the kindest expressions of
appreciation for the cordial reception
given them at Brownsville, and re-
