Don't forget to vote for the May
queen. Two votes for five cents at
the Texas Confectionery. 5-27-tf
First COmmuniOn.-A large class
of little Mexican boys and girls made
their first communion at the Catholic
church yesterday.
The May Queen will be crowned at
the May party at six O'Clock this even
ing. The voting for the popular
tie girls who are in the contest has
been quite lively tody, and much
interest is felt in the conclusion. The
Maypole dance in which ten little
girls and as many little boys will par
ticipate will take place Immediately
after the queen is crowned.
Another DweIIing.-Mayor F, J.
Combe has begun the erection of the
fourth dwelling on "Combe Row OPP
posite st. Joseph's College, on LeVee
street. This will be equally as at
tractive and Up-to-date as the other
three, Others who own vacant lots
about town should follow the exam
pie of our enterprising mayor and i'm
prove their property in a similar
manner. There are many lots in the
very heart of town on which are tum-
ble-dOwn houses that are anything
but an ornament to the town, on
which the owners might erect neat
and attractive cottages or business
houses for rent, with both credit and
profit for themselves.
MatamOrOs Fiestas End.-The
May gambling fair which has been
conducted at the Plaza de Allende in
Matamoros for the past month ended
last night An immense crowd was
present and the gambling quite live
ly The military band played
throughout the evening and fir
works were displayed at intervals.
One feature which has character
lied these fiestas has been the
quiet and orderly manner in
which they were conducted. The
plaza has been filled with large
crowds almost nightly, and last night
it was simply damned with people,
yet scarcely a loud laugh or word
spoken above the ordinary tone was
heard. Occasionally an unusually
popular selection rendered by the
band would be applauded or even en-
cored, but without any unseemly de-
monstration. Visitors from the
states" are always impressed with
the quiet way in which our Mexican
neighbors usually take their pleas
ures.
Guessing Contest.-0ne of the
features of the May party this even
ing will be guessing the length of a
coil of rope, such as is used on ships.
Each guess will cost a nickel The
guess which is nearest correct will be
rewarded with a toy sail boat made
by Capt. Constant Laroche, of Point
Isabel. called the Queen O. the
May" The boat is on exhibition at
the Texas Confectionery, where it
has been eyed longingly by many lit
tie folks. who hope they may be the
best guesser.
