Chilli Con Carne.

From remotest Mexico comes this
recipe for chill con carne. which is
capable Of warming whatever cookies
the heart may have and Of dlffusing
calories to ones works at large: First
comes fire Of logs In the open Second
comes an ola of generous proportions.
Into the ola put gallon OF water and
plenty Of the hot chilis. and In that
region OF Mexico they rIpen so hot that
not even the rattlesnake will dare take
refuge In their shade. Upon this be
ginning lay as much Of side OF beef
In one piece as may be squeezed into
the pot Set the cover on this ola and
lutte 1t down with clay. Then put the
pot into the fire and heap the glowing
Goals all over 1t, with particular atten-
ton to the lid, so that the luting may
bake into brick. Keep the fire burning
slowly all day long. When night has
come scatter the embers. break the
brick seal Of the ola, fork ont and
throw away whatever Of the meat re-
mains solid The remainder is the chill
con carne. No sauce is needed.

Uncle Sans Eaale.

The eagle is the king of birds, the
lord Of the sky. the bravest, noblest
and most independent of the feathered
tribe. and probably that is the reason
why he was adopted as our national
bird. His image holds its place upon
our national coat of arms by sheer
merit and not merely from empty
sentiment The noble bird, loving
liberty. scorning confinement, at home
and at his best only when invested
with the wide freedom of the glorious
heavens. Is the fit emblem of the
spirit Of re- and Of the government
that that spirit won and established
on the earth. Other peoples entertain
the same high opinion Of the eagle,
since from the time of the institution
Of the Roman standard straight down
to the present day he has appeared as

GOOD ROADS COM
M|TTEE MEETING

The called meeting OF the good
roads committee of the Commercial
Club was held in the city council
chamber at o'clock last night with
Chairman ]. X. Parker presiding. The
members were all present except two.
Prof. Potts, state highway engineer,
was present and gave some most val
liable suggestions.
The subcommittee appointed at the
last meeting to report a possible re-
vision of the district lines reported
that their canvass had developed the
fact that a very large proportion Of
the property owners outside the pro-
posed district wanted to be included
within the district. This was found
TO be the sentiment in every part OF
the county. After a careful considera-
ton of the situation, II was decided
to make the good roads a county
proposition. A canvass OF the princL
pal roads leading into the different
sections of the county showed a mile
age of approximately 1870 to $50 miles
to be improved. II was considered
that bond issue of 100000 for the
entire county would give Brazos coun-
ty splendid road system and would
mean a tax Of only 16 2-3 cents on the
500 of valuation or, in other words,
II man pays taxes on a valuation of
$1,000, his good road tax would amount
to exactly $166 each year, and the
benefit to any small farmer would be
hundredfold.
II was the consensus of opinion
that the preliminary plans had devel-
oped now to such a point that a con-
ference with the members of the com.
misisoners' court was desirable, and
would porve helpful, and a motion pre-
vailed instructing the secretary to
write each member OF the court. in
