1910 at three cents a pound and its
average price for so years ended in
1874 was only three and one-half cents
pound. Raw cotton for home spin
ming and dressing was 10 cents a
pound in the decade to 1914. Clean
hemp cost 900 the gross ton.
In 1910 butter, cheese and eggs
were commodities Of so many homes
that they were not listed. But
French brandy. Holland gin, West In
dia rum, New England rum and Port
wine were in every price list. French
brandy sold in 1910 at 1925 a gallon,
Holland gin at s2.O7 and American gin
at 80 cents a gallon. West India rum
was 81 a gallon while New England
rum was 60 cents. AT this seemingly
low price there must have been a pro-
fit in its manufacture for its cost de-
clined so that its average price from
/ 1876 to 1914 was only As cents a gal
Ion. In 1912 it sold at IS cents a gal
lon. How these prices quoted for the
above named liquids compare with the
rates for like articles today the Land

lent just at the time to get in com
munication with its exchanges

The destruction by fire of Camp

landmark of more than passing inter
est to many people not only in this
section but in various parts OF the
United States.
The old house, located on Verde
Greek, eight miles from Center Point
and thirteen from Kerrville, was the
last remaining building Of Camp
Verde military post. It was built in
1857 and was originally the officers

thick, and all the finishing lumber

Camp Verde post was established
as a station from which experiments
could be made in using camels to
cross the desert to California. In
1857 a consignment of forty camels
was brought from Asia Minor and
Egypt on the United States steamer
Supply to the Texas coast and eventu-

A large caravansary was built for
the accommodation of the camels and
a well dug and fitted up with a sweep
for drawing water after the ancient
Egyptian fashion. Traces of both
the corral and we'll are still in evi.
dence. The experiment, however,
proved impractical, and while the
camels were kept there eleven years,
no use was made OF them and in 1868
they were sold and sent TO Mexico
and California.

welt.
1t is the intention of Jones o
catch all sorts of animals, including
young elephants, with his especially
prepared ropes, and with his fine
cowboys and ponies and Southwest
paraphernalia that he has taken along
with him on the trip. He has some
of the most famous Southwest
characters with him, and is himself
afraid of no animal that walks. He
says boastingly that neither he nor
any of his men has gun along.
Jones, who has a we'll developed
humorous side, writes in a jocular
way about his rundown, in his claims
OF animal roping at the hands of
London newspapers, saying: 81 en-
close a clipping from the London
Mail. Quite a number of reporters
interviewed me, but it was so as.
tonlshing to think a man would make
such notwithstanding wild .
animals with a rope-that they we're
all turned down when their stories
reached the editors"
One reporter asked Jones what he
would do when he get the animal
fairly entangled in the rope. "That's
a secret between me and the ANIMAL"
replied the old Westerner.
Jones is man of IS years, very
tall, well built, and with an eagles |
eye. He has subdued more than one
animal merely by looking it directly |
in the eye. He has had many ex.
periences on his ranches near Garden
City and in New Mexico and Ar.

Jones is the savior of the buffllo. .
having led the first movement against
complete determination and the Gre
alton of the few herds that remain.
He is also the author of the idea Of
crossbreeding between buffalo and
domestic cattle, and also between
Persian rams and mountain ewes, a
type called "Persiarino," and also
Persian rams and mountain goats in
type he calls, "Goriason.' His
ranches are queer places.
Jones is starch friend of lrriga.

(By United Press eLased Wire. }
l. PARIS, Feb. 2.-Several cases
of typhoid fever were reported to
the authorities today, and an
epidemic is feared among those
who have used water from the
eity's usual supply. This water
has been polluted by the break
ing of mains and trunk sewers
under the streets. and the health
authorities have issued warnings
against it's consumption.
The department of health is
urging upon the people the ne
cessity of boiling the water they
use for domestic purposes. Ply
sicians today are investigating the
stricken districts, and extreme
if necessary, will be
taken to prevent spread of the
disease.
The Seine is falling rapidly
today, and now is practically
within its own bounds.
Aside from few minor disturb

Guilty today in restraining the

Liabeuf, man of the real

he was coming, which was entirely
unnecessary, for as soon as he was
