WELCOME TO HoUST0M..

OF all the larger cities of Texas,
none is related so closely to Browns
vile as Houston. The completion of
the St Louis, Brownsville and Mexico
railroad into Houston and establish
ment of terminal facilities of the line
there within the past year has
brought Brownsville and Houston in
to close touch. So far, it is true, the
relations between the two places
have been based chiefly upon trade.
Business communications. however,
when supplemented with social inter
course are robbed of the dry. sordid
atmosphere which too often envelopes
the business life. Nowadays, the
dining or the banquet often forms
an agreeable accompaniment to bus
ness transactions Most important
ventures of an Industrial or trade
nature are often launched at such So
ciaI occasions. Men of affairs today
fully appreciate the Importance of
cultivating social relations with
those with whom they desire closer
business relations. The progressive
citizens of Houston realize this. and
so they endeavor by means of trade
excursions to become acquainted with
the people of the territory in which
they find inviting business oppol tun-
tiles. Brownsville may also improve
the opportunity of becoming ac
quainted with Houston. These
evangels of trade are coming here, it
is true with the view of gaining the
patronage of the people of the valley.
But they are men who will doubtless
be able to recognize opportunities to
make investments on their own be
half, and SO, while extending to them
the courtesies due to visitors of such
high standing, it would also be in or
der for Brownsville and the valley in
general to endeavor to interest them
in the many great opportunities for
profitable investment which are here.
By cordial greeting and. courteous
attention, We may open the way by
which to interest them in the many
good things we have to offer them
here.
Aside, however, from this fact,

GLEN
IN BROWNSVILLE
CHIEF QUARTERMAsTER OF
TEXAS DEPARTMENT HERE.
VIII Investigate Condition of Sol
diers' Graves at Point Isabel and
Arrange for Their Removal to Ma
tionaI Cemetery.

Colonel John L. Glen, L. S. A,
chief quartermaster of the depart
ment of Texas. with headquarters at
San Antonio. arrived in Brownsville
last night. Col. Clem's visit is for
the purpose of looking into the mat
ter of the removal of the exposed
bones of the soldiers of the Mexican
war from Poin Isabel to the ma
tional cemetery at Brownsville.
To a representative of The Herald
Col. Glenn stated that he had already
recommended to the war department
the immediate removal of all exposed
bones to the national cemetery here,
and that he would make a further
recommendation as to the disposal of
the other bodies buried at Isabel af-
ter he has made full INVESTIGATION,
and that such an investigation is a
part of his present mission Col
Glen said he had seen the protest
filed by the people. of Point Isabel
against the removal of the bodies but
that he did not think il would re-
ceive much attention from the war
department as he does not think the
government would countnance the
idea of maintaining two national
cemeteries only twenty miles apart
when the oneshere is amply large to
hold all the bodies of soldiers that are
to be buried in this section. He did
not say when the removal of the ex-
posed. bodies is likely to begin.
Col Glenn is no stranger to
Brownsville, having been stationed
here with the garrison of fort Brown
in the past. Il saw my first military
service, after leaving West Point. at

as a second lieutenant in 1871. l was

here whom l am always pleased to
meet, though l grieve to note that
some of the old familiar faces are
no longer in evidence. having been
called to their final reward
Col. Clem's last visit to Brownsville
was six years ago and he was aston
ished at the improvements made here
since then. He missed many of the
old landmarks and had to be guided
around town to find places that were
familiar to him. Col. Glenn and Mr..
Robertson, the custodian of the ma
tiOnal cemetery, left for Point Isabel
this morning.

The Panama Blunder.

1t will be remembered that a COM
mission of civil engineers was Great
ed some three years ago to study and
report the question of IA Panama
Canal with locks or upon sea level
This commission, it will be further
remembered. consisted of five foreign
engineers of experience named by
their own governments and seven
Americans selected by President
Roosevelt. After a prolonged investi-
CATION the five foreigners and three
of the Americans reported in favor
of sea-level canal. The senate was
evidently inclined to favor the ma
iority report. But President Roose-
welt. with customary self-will put
his foot down, and the report of the
minority for canal with locks was
adopted amid much misgiving as to
its practicability.
Since then one of the engineers of
the minority has come around to the
ma iority and President-elect Taft is
going on January 25 to Panama with
a corps OF engineers to investigate
the question once more whether the
work is done, Gatun dam ana all,
shall not be undone or abandoned.

gineers for seal-level canal adopted

TOWERS FOR DEAD WIVES.
An Italian Count Found to Be ths
Model Widowsr.

1t would be difficult to analyze aud
describe the sentiment filling the
breast of the Italian count who has
built u castle with seven towers in 81
arrtz in memory Of his seven wives.
1t seems that here at least we have
! the model widOwer. Out OF seven
! wives he has not selected one for exal-
tation above the others. All are equal
in his eyes. As no two women are
alike. he married seven different kinds
Of temper. seven different shades Of
hair. seven different degrees OF tongue.
seven different kinds Of figure. seven
contrasts in beauty or something OppO-
site. yet for all that this paragon
among men holds all seven wives to
have been equally worthy OF his admi-
ration. 1t almost seems this count Is
too good to be human. TO follow the
case further. 1t Is reasonable to sup
pose that had he buried seventy seven
wives there would be seventy seven
towers on his castle The multiplica-
ton. too. might go on until Il castle
stood with Il tower for every woman
on the foo,stooI. That gives an inspir-
ing prospect. but the thought will in
trudc that the sentimental side Of the
count is Il trihe too elastic. Try to i'm
aginc the thoughts that flow through
his mind when he gees in the moon
light to The roof of his baronial castle
and wanders through the maze of his
memorial towers. Poor man. And
yet are these seven towers really meIl-
lnents raised in joy over liberation !?
1t is significant that no corner has been
reserved for IN eighth tower. Perhaps
with the count seven wives may have
been the beginning of wisdom. Seven
has been caSsed rs the magic number.

Women Writers War on SUFFRAGE.


Mrs IIumphry Ward has not rested
meckly under the rcbuic of Mrs. Julia
Ward Howe, who retorted vigorously
10 the assertion of the Englishwoman
that equal suffrage in the western
states has been IL failure. Mrs. Ward
formed her opinions ON Il rowing visit
to this country few months ago and
aired them on her return to England.
Mrs. Howe replied through the Lon
don Times The novelist now asserts
that in Il congress election in Denver
Il few years ago women were as active
the odds against her. Mrs. Howe has
called the district attorney of Denver
as witness. and he says that out Of
Scventy-eight persons involved in the
frauds of which Mrs. Ward complains
seventysiX We're men and two were
women. TO make the case still strong
er for Mrs. Howe and the American
suffragist in general Judge Lindsey Of
Denver gives it as his experience that
90 per cent Of the election frauds in
Colorado are the work Of men unas-
sisted by women. This evidence seems
to clinch the case for Mrs. Howe, and
it Is natural that the champions Of
wOmans rights in England have seized
upon the controversy as weapon
against Mrs. Ward. who has worked
vigorously 10 keep women ont Of the
