WILD RUMoRs.

There has been q good deal In the
newspapers of late ab.ut trouble in
T~amaulipas. The plain truth Is
that there Is no serious trouble in
that state and there has not been
lately. This is n Of fhc Instances
where the smoke bears an undue
proportion 10 the fire. The most
careful inquiry into the situation
fails to coy any happenings Of
any very alarming ma ure over there
A few days ago some bands Gf
marauders numberingl css than fifty
men, raided and looted the village
Of Burgos. They appear to have
done some loud talking of he things
they were going TO do THAI IL the
whole story. There is no fear in
Matamoros Of those robbers. The
fact that Burgos is about 200 miles
from MatamJros is in itself a fac
worth remembering All this wild
talk should be stopped because ii

ENORMOUS TOURIST BUSINESS.

Local railroad officials arc happy
over the fruits Of heir winter tour
is campaign 1t has been pro
nouneed successful from every
source.
Now that the winter I urist sea-
son is practically over in South
Teas railroad officials are figuring
up the results of the warm cam
paisns ihcy made in the fall and
early winter. 1t is claimed that
thousands Of winter tourists came
to SOUTH Texas this winter who
would have gone TO California or
Florida but for the efforts Of the
Texas lines and their allied roads.
The Friscr. Rock Island-Trinity
and Brazos Valley and the I'M crna-
tional and Great Northern probably
handled the majority OF the tourist
business These roads through their
allied lines & hered tourists from
all parts + the North and East ard
scattered them along the gulf coas,.
All three Of these roads, like the
Sovi hern Pacific, issued elaborate
tourists booklets and other literature

a tours garden.
Colonel T. ]. Anderson Of the
Southern Pacific spent a month in
the East last fill, preaching winter
resorts and Sunset Special rhroueh
several states.
The campaign will be pushed
through all the year, and next sea-
son tho railroads hope to bring to
Texas touri5 from all over the
United States. Five years IS the
maximum limit set on time for rival
ing California as a resort garden
for tho country BY nat time the
contemplated chain Of hotels along
the coast will have been completed
and their regulations es ablishcd.
While Houston entertained many Of

who's in the habit Of hauling dead

result is that people compelled 10
