HUNTING PARTY
BREAKS CAMP
TWENTY.THREE DEER CICTI'
TO THEIR CREDIT.
Judge Borden and Sure-ShOt Spatts
of Houston Contest for HOnOrs of
The Hunt With Fabulous Record.
One Coyote Bagged.

The big hunting party that has
been bombarding the game, both
large and small, on the Mestenas
tract fer the past ter days broka
camp last Saturday. The party was
mode up of Judge Henry L. Borden,
Col. Joe Rice, VIM Rice and S R.
Spatts of Houston, Lamor Gill Of
Cuero, L. C. Hill, of harlingen, w
F. Sprague of La Coma, and DR.
J. X. Combe, DR.. H. X. Loew, S. S.
Dworman and R. B. Creager of
Brownsville.
Not all these were out the entire
ten days, the faces around the camp
FIRE changing continually as hunters
arrived and departed.
After the smoke of battle had
cleared away, it was found that
twenty-three deer and one coyote
had been sent to the Elysian fields.
The hOnors of the present hunt were
disputed by Judge Borden and sure
Yshot Spatts who brought in bucks
with fifteen and fourteen point ant
lers respectively. DR.. Joe Combe
said he counted the points himsen,
so the statement cannot be doubted.
The doctor was loath to tell who
shot the coyote, but, finally, gave
the name of a prominent banker of
this city, on condition, however, that
it should not be published.
DR.. COmbe made the trip from the
camp to Brownsville by automobile
in seven hours coming by way of
the Sprague ranch and Chaplin. While
on the hunt, he did considerable
travelling over the country in his
machine and SO well did it perform
in running through brush that it was
given the name of "Paisano,' by
which it will hereafter be known.
