PROPOSED UNION DEPOT

An Eagla~T5porter was reliably in
formed this morning that a union
depot, long wanted by the citizens of
Bryan, is being discussed and consd-
cred by the railroad officials of both
the Houston & Texas Central and the
International & Great Northern rail
roads With the law requiring the
building of union stations at certain
places, It would not take much effort
on the part of Bryan to secure such
station. The railroad officials have at
all times assured Bryan that it was
their desire to keep abreast with the
advancement of Bryan and Brazos
county.
The location suggested for the union
station is the site of the brick ware
house, and the only objection from the
railroads point of view is the changes
that would have to be made in South
Main street However, 1t is believed
by those who have given the matter
careful thought that these changes
can easily be made

on your part as will eliminate these
conditions. There is just one thing for
US to do, and / believe the urgent
necessity for this work warrants i'm
mediate action in the matter of con-
structing a sanitary sewer system.
Our failure to do this work in the past
has been one of the greatest sources
in retardng the development of our
city.
Our funds for this work are ade-
quate in the present condition, that is,
we have available in cash approx
mately $1,000 in our water, light and
sewer construction fund.
The sewer system is the most
important question that confronts US
today. With the money on hand and
the money that can be secured at once
for this work we should be able to
construct this system in time to give
a great deal of relief to the business
section of the city before the summer
is over.
Il am sure that committee from
the council could raise all necessary
funds to get this system into opera
ton at once, and / sincerely request
your immediate consideration of this
question. Yours truly,
d. T. MALONEY, Mayor"
After the reading of this urgent
message from the mayor a motion was
made by Alderman Walker, seconded
by Alderman Burger, that work start
at once on the sewer system. The mo-
ton passed unanimously. The work
will start Monday morning, and the
of septic tanks. ~~~

were Mayor and Mrs. Seligman.

their daughter, Miss Beatrice

The house looked very beautiful

Following the ceremonyMr. r.snd
Mrs. March stole away in the

more from the Santa Fe depot.
and at special request the train
for Lamy stopped and allowed the
bridal couple to continue their
journey per train. This clever
ruse enabled Mr.. and Mrs. March
to evade many showers Of rice
and other attentions of fun max
ers, although it is said many an
autowas pressed into sevice to
intercept them before they
reached the train.

John 7. Blaney was in town
yesterday afternoon, reporting
that his we'll is now down one
hundred and fifty EIGHT feet, hav
ing encountered three strata of
water. O. P. Turner is doing the
work. Mr.. Blaney has not de-
cided whether to drill deeper or
stop now. The second and third
strata were struck in a splendid
gravel, and he thinks the flow
will be sufficient for his pump.
He will at once install a gasoline
engine and pumping outfit to ir-
rigate his orchard and truck
patch. He says some of his cher
ries were hurt by the recent
frost, but that he has a few
cherries on the trees. Consider
ing the care he has been able to
give the orchard it is doing nice
ly and he is encouraged. He also
has a peony in blossom, some
thing of which we have not
heard before in the valley. Some
of his tomatoes are the size of
hulled walnuts. This sounds as
if there will be something grown
in the valley, despite the knock
ers.

MCINTOSH MER-
CHHNT ThKES
F'RENCHLEAVE

Word was received in Estan-
cia yesterday afternoon that
Fred T. Fisher, merchant of Nc
Intosh had taken French leave
of that city on Wednesday night,
riding to Willard, where he took
the train for Ell Paso. William
Mcintosh, who was in partner
ship in the mercantile business
with Fisher, received a letter
from him, mailed at Belen, tell
ing that he was on his way to Ell
Paso and that he would return
and close up the business if Nc
Intosh desired him to do so.
A short time ago, Mrs. Fisher
filed suit for divorce against her
husband, on the grounds of
cruelty and abuse. A demand
was made that he send her at
Santa Fe her personal belong
ings, among which were a num-
ber of gifts received by her be-
fore her marriage. Neglecting
to attend to this, an order from
the district court was secured,
and placed. in the sheriff's hands
to secure the property Sheriff
Meyer..went to Mcintosh yester-
day to serve the order, only to
find there was no one to be serv-
ed. He secured the property and
had it shipped to Santa Fe.
The mercantile business has
been a go from the start. and
with close attention, Fisher
would have won out, Being in
partnership with Mcintosh
brought him quite lot Of trade
from the sheepmen in that vicini-
ty. besides the trade of the far
mers, The business is in fairly
good shape, considering all things
and the stock on hand will pro-
bably make Mr.. Mcintosh safe or
nearly so.

TrujlIIO COnf6SS6S
to Shooting

The officers who went to Taji-
que Tuesday to make further in
vestigations in the Peralta MUIR
der case, brought back with them
the club which was described by
the murderers as having been
used in committing the fiendish
deed, having found it behind the
cupboard as described in the con-
fessions. 1t is a handle of a
shovel or fork, which had been
sawed off. In cutting it off, it
had been sawed around on all
sides, and then broken, not being
cut square off. They also found
imbedded in one of the overhead
joist or timbers in the room a
leaden bullet. which they cut out.
The bullet is from a thirty-eight
caliber gun.
This evidence seemed to bear
out the testimony of Isabel Bill
lesca to the effect that Peralta
had been shot. Working at this,
a confession was secured from
Eduardo Trujillo that the young
woman had told the truth and
that he had fired two shots at the
girls step father, the first glanc-
ing off the temple and the second
taking effect in the head. He
further stated that the cartriges
used were 38 caliber, while the
gun was Al on a 45 frame. The
gun is also in the hands of the
officers.
