that Balboa, when he first saw the azure

BE SURE TO}Go.

Every person in Brownsville who is in
terested in the progress Of Brownsville,

the Progressive League of Southwest
Texas, and j. H. Briggs, its secretary
will he there to tell YOU something worth
hearing. Colonel Haywood has a wide
reputation as a speaker. He has never
spoken in Brownsville before, but our
people know that a man who can interest
a Houston audience. and who has talked
before a New Orleans audience, must have
something to say and a a way of saying il
that makes it well worth while.
Colonel Haywood has a special message
for the business men of Brownsville and
the farmers of the Brownsville vicinity
Be sure to show your interest in progress

AN OLD EVIL.

story of the ravaocs Of the bargain-hnnt-

THE RIO GRANDE'S WAY.

Superintendent Williams of the Light
and Water Department is puzzled. Yes
tcrday morning the Rio Grande at
Brownsville began falling and during the
day fell about three feet. That. of course,
was quite satisfactory to Superintendent
Williams. But Saturday night he was
informed by responsible parties that the
river had fallen two feet at the Piper
plantation. about six miles below
Brownsville. That was some hours be-
fore the fall began at Brownsville. and
Superintendent Williams is trying to
the riddle of how the river fell at a
point below Brownsville before it began
ut Brownsville.
Mr.. Williams acknowledges that the
Rio Grandc has ways of its own, but he
can't see through this one.

attention to the problem. H
1t will be urged upon the administers

the pulic's only safeguard against ev-

WILSON ON POSTMASTERS.

week. gives an interesting sidelight on
the presidents views as to pO>tmastcrs.

himself and Postmaster General "Burly

in future. The wording of the message
brings out the humorous side of Prcsi

matters of tariff and currency legislation
and the Mexican crises. The message. as

THE KAISER ON TEMPERANCE

The Emperor William Of Germany
must undoubtedly be caasScd among the
great rulers of his day-among the sue
cessful rulers of his day. He is Il man
with profound convictions as to tho
truth of the Christian religion-conyic-
tons which he is not ashamed to pro-
TESS before all the world. Though he be-
lieves in the ancient dogma of the divine
right of kings to rule, he believes Just AZ
earnestly that the king is d~ivincly ob-
ligated to rule right. with the proSppri-
ty, health and happiness of his people
as his principle business in life. In all
things that make for the good of the peo-
pie, the Kaiser is a modern man-a man
of the age. All possible encouragement
is given TO the higher learning, and no
country in the world has more
