Danger in Arsenic Production.

Brinton, Va, now busy center of
industry, owes it's beginning to the
poisoning of farmers COWS, which
also led to the discovery of valuable
deposits of arsenic. A farmer cleared
new field on the mountain top near
by for pasture. Before long the
COWS sickened and died. 1t was
thought that the trouble lay in a
spring which bubbled from the rocks
in apparent purity. Upon analysis it
was found that this water contained
arsenic in such quantities as to render
it dangerous either to man or beast.
From the time when the ore enters
the crushers until the finished prod
uct reaches the casks it is untouched
by human hands. 1t is carried along
from point to point by automatic ar
rangements through each process of
manufacture. The impalpable dust and
poisonous gases generated are so dan
gerous that the atmosphere of the
plant has to be kept pure by artificial
means.

Expressive Comment.

James Mcneil Whistler was dining
with friend in London. Suddenly,
when all had dined and were back in
the drawing-room, Whistler said that
he had almost forgotten it, but he alb
solutely must write a letter and get
it off by the nights post. He was told
that in room at the head of the first
flight of stairs he would find the lights
burning and pens, paper and ink at
his disposal. He went up and present.
ly there was heard series of bumps,
ending in a heavy thud at the foot of
the stairs. The master had tipped,
lost his balance, and come near hav-
ing bad fall. The host ran to him
and asked if he was hurt. 81 am not
killed, if that's what you meant"
Whistler replied; but tell me, who
built those stairs?" The host men.

Bet That Ruilt a Lighthouse.

Dunston Pillar owes it's foundation
to a wager accepted by Sir Francis
Eastwood that he could not raise a
column of a given altitude on a base
Of narrow dimensions. He won his
wager, and, by the addition of
beacon, the pillar served a useful pur-
pose as a lighthouse. Subsequently
the light was removed and a statue of
King George III. was erected at the
jubilee of that monarch. Toward the
end of the eighteenth century the pill.

country, and on great occasions the

Great Question Solved.

The French academy has solved q
great question, its savants having
traced the antipathy for the mother.
in-law to the red man. In the six
teenth century the Spaniards brought
back with them, besides gold and
legends, the story of the hatred Of the
mother-in-law among the aborigines.
The noble red man would not walk
in the footsteps Of his squaw's mother
till the sea had washed them away, SO
profound was his detestation of his re-
lation by marriage.
This hatred, the academicians
think, was relic of the feeling en-
gendered in the days when man stole
his bride by force. Naturally his dis
position toward his mother-in-law was
not that of an admirer.
We are living down the mother-in-
law bogie. Unlike the red man, a
good many of us could walk in her
footsteps with great benefit to our.
selves.

looks queer to a person in the ex-

old time, convention methods Of our

bit inconsistent with the preference
primary idea as the ideal way t 0 let
the people speak for themselves.
Under the old, wicked ways Of the
old, wicked politicians, a contesting
delegation came in mighty handy
when the contesters could get con-
trol Of the temporary organization,
and have their crowd recognized.
Really, it looks as if the Colonel and
his friends were in danger of a re-

There was held a convention OF
Baptists comprising delegates from
eight churches Of the Valley, at San
Benito Monday afteroon, at which
they formed a new association to be
known as the Cameron and Hidalgo
County Baptist association. The
above named counties have formerly

consistent and effective work could
be accomplished by having an asso-
citation of the Rio Grande Valley,
and 50 the new association was
formed.
Rev. l.. r. Burres of Brownsville
was chosen moderator and the Rev.
Mr.. Herndon of Mercedes, clerk of
the association. There was an exc
cutive board appointed including
one member from each Of the eight
churches, and it will hold its first
meeting at the Baptist church here
next Monday for the purpose Of dis
cussing various plans and work Of
the association.
The first meeting of the assOcia-
ton will be held with the Baptist
church in Brownsville, Tuesday,
August g., 1912.
Those from Brownsville who at
tended the convention at San Be-
nito were, Rev. and Mrs. r. A.

0 R THAT COUNT.

The words of hearty commenda-
ton for Louis Cobolini, the real
love and honor for him expressed by
Col. Hawley of Galveston, in an in
terview published in The Herald
this morning, is gratifying indeed to
Mr.. Cobolini's host of friends in
Brownsville. Col. Hawley is not
only one of Galveston's most promi-
nent citizens-he is also one of the
best known men in Texas. His cen
nection with the Frisco Good Roads
train shows how he stands. When
he says that the city of Galveston
loves and honors Louis Cobolini and
has been proud to call him a citi-
zen Of Galveston, which he was for
many years, those words mean some
thing. They are words that count.
Brownsville must realize that il
would be fortunate to have the ser
vices Of such a mar as Louis CObo-
lini as it's mayor-a man of brains
and Of indomitable energy, and a
man of such high character, such
staunch integrity, that many of the
most prominent men of Texas have
been proud to call him friend.
Read what Col. Hawley has to
say about Cobolini, and make Up
your mind to vote for him for mayor
of Brownsville.

SCHOONER MARGARET
STOPPED BY RURALES
Taken for Filibuster, But Capt. Reed
of Life Saving Station Explains
and She Enters River.

The auxiliary schooner Margaret
started en- her trip from Point Isabel
for Brownsville yesterday morning,
under the guidance Of Pilot Con-
stance Laroche, jr.-and thereby
hangs a tale. The boat was accom-
panied down the coast from Brazos
Santiago Pass to the rivers mouth
by Capt. Wallace Reed and his crew
from the life saving station, the cap
tain realizing that the bar at the
mouth of the Rio Grande makes a
nasty bit of navigation for a boat
of the Margaret's build, and coming
along so as 10 be on hand if needed.
On reaching the bar, the life saw
ers went ove to the Mexican Side
in order to set the range for the
Margaret, after taking soundings on
the bar, it being necessary 70 land
both the life saving boat and the
pilots launch. Upon landig, the
ulCn HClt dNCOSICu NY INC captain
CT a rurales company, which is do
ing guard duty near the site of old
Bagdad, who wanted 10 know the
reason of their presence on Mexican
soil and what they might have in
their boats.
Capt. Reed informed the officer
that he was a United States official,
in charge of the Brazos life saving
STATEN, explaining his mission there,
and also that of the schooner Mar
garet. The rurales were rather sus-
p%icious, however, as they have been
on the lookout for a filibustering
ship with arms for the rebels, re-
ported to have sailed from Calves
ton recently, and they held Capt.
Reed and his party for about an hour
and a half, while they ~telephoned
to the commanding officer at Mata-
moros to inform him of the arrival
of the schooner and the landing of
the men on the Mexican shore.
The rurales, who numbered about
twenty, were very courteous to the
Americans, and as soon as they re-
ceived instructions from Matamoros,
permitted Capt. Reed and his men
to proceed.
The schooner was then brought
across the bar, which showed a depth
Of just four feet of water at this
time, and anchored last night about
three miles up the stream. She is
expected to come up the river to
Brownsville at once, unless the
water is too shallow.
Capt. Reed and his crew put back
up the coast, the captain going over
to Point Isabel in time to take the
train for Brownsville, where he
spent last night with his wife and
baby.

GALVESTON HONORS AND
LOVES LOUIS COBOLINI.
Col. Hawley, Prominent Island City
Citizen Pays High Tribute to
Democratic Candidate for Mayor.

OCIIOC1d l1C OdLu1udIC 1O1 uAdyO1.
Col. j.. H. Hawley, of Galveston,
who lectured on Good Roads to the
citizens of Brownsville on Monday
night paid a very handsome compli-
ment to Louis Cobolini, candidate
for mayor on the Democrat ticket,
both, in his address and afterwards.
In talking with a Herald reporter,
Col, Hawley, after the meeting, said:
- have known Louis Cobolini for
thirty years. He was always an
honored and respected citizen. He
"a held in high esteem by all
classes in Galveston. His enterprise
and high appreciation Of the value
Of good government made him one
Of the most useful men of our city.
He is reliable and honorable. We
of Galveston have never really felt
that Cobolini belongs to any city
but Galveston, and while Browns
vile may claim his active life, we
are still proud to claim him as a
Galveston man. We love and honor
Louis Cobolini in Galveston"
Isn't that a pretty compliment
from one man to another? What
more beautiful sentimen than this:
Brownsville may now claim his
active life, but we are still proud
to claim his as a Galveston man.
We love and honor Louis Cobolini
in Galveston
