IMPROVEMENTS AT THE
NATIONAL CEMETERY
Superintendent Robinson InstaIls
WaterTOrkS and Beauties
Soldiers Resting Place.

Since assuming charge OF the Nat
ional Cemetery here as superinten-
dent, Captain T. s. Robinson has
very materially improved the place.
Among the more recent improve
ments is a private waterwOrks sys-
TEN for the cemetery. Captain
Robinson has installed a pump at
the river near the pumping station
of the South Texas Garden, obtain
ing the power from the latter plant
to operate the pump. The water is
pumped into the large reservoir in
Fort Brown, which has a capacity
of 10000. After this tank is fill
led the water is allowed to settle
for a couple of days. Then the
water in the bottom of the tank
is drawn out. thus getting rid of the
mud. and leaving clear water to be
used in the cemetery. Several by
drants have been placed about the
grounds, so that the grass can be
watered as needed, and the entire
place now looks green and beautiful
All of the headstOnes marking the
graves of the soldiers, of which
there are about three thousand, have
been reset, so that now all are ex-
actly in line and of the same
height, which has greatly improved
their appearance The bodies of the
soldiers of Gen. TaylOr's army, I'M
earthed last spring at Isabel, have
been added to the number

The city council has done well to
clear the streets of the many loaf
ers who heretofore have blocked the
way on the street corners of our
main thoroughfares and especiall>
about the postoffice The loafer IS
neither beautiful nor useful. On the
contrary he is usually an ugly and
disgusting sight and encumbers the
earth for no apparent useful pur-
pose. No up-to-date city permits
loafing on its streets. ana Browns
vile has taken a step in the right
direction in making the loafers
move on.

Tire Themselves Getting Ready.

Washington Irving tells story
of a man who tried to jump over a
hill. He went back so far to get
his start for the great leap, and ran
so hard, that he was completely ex-
hausted when he came to the hill,
and had to lie down and rest. Then
he got up and walked over the hill.
A great many people exhaust
themselves getting ready to do their
work. They are always preparing.
They spend their lives getting ready
to do something which they never
do.
1t is an excellent thing TO keep
+ improving oneself, to keep growing
/ but there must be a time to begin
the great work of life. know a
man who is almost forty years old
who has not vet decided what he is
going to do. He has graduated
from college, and taken a number
of postgraduate courses al
along general lines. He has not ye
begun to specialize. This man full
! ly believes he is, going to do grea
things yet. | hope he may.-Fron

REGISTERED MAIL POUCH
LOST FROM UNION PACIFIC
Especial to The Sentinel.


Denver, April 23.-Chief Inspector
Cochran of the Denver postoffice, an
nounced yesterday that a mail pouch
containing twenty-nine registered
packages had been lost from Union
Pacific train between Green River
and Bryan, Wyo., Sunday night.
Upon comparison with the records of
the San Francisco postoffice, it was
discovered that three packages of un-
signed bank notes, aggregating $5,-
500. consigned by the treasury de-
partment to California banks, were
among the contents of the missing
pouch. The notes need only the sig
nature of the California bank Off
cials to become legal tender.
There were five mail clerks in the
car when the pouch was lost, but the
loss was not discovered for some
time. The pouch is supposed to have
fallen from the car through a door
jolted open on the heavy grade.
One of the packages was consigned
to the First National bank of Palo
Alto, Cal, and contained $40 and
$50 notes numbered from U324232
to 324247. amounting to $500.
The second package aggregating
s2,400 in $50 and 500 notes and
numbered from B62753 to 627545,
was consigned to a San Jose bank.
The third package of $1,000 in $40
and $50 notes numbered from
H514342 to 514377, was addressed
to bank in Santa Cruz.
