small tracts of land. These tracts in
the first place are all covered with a
heavy brush. They are grubbed out
for the sum Of SO an acre. Land is
worth all the way from $50 to 5000 an
acre. East, south and north Of town
it is mostly farm land, and few dairy
farms-wherever the land is rough.
The land is mostly all one vast plain.
West of town quite a few miles out we
find large ranches, and cowboys. They
come in town a lot all dressed in a
Texan cowboy outfit.
Products raised are cotton, corn,
vegetables and a little small grain, not
enough to amount to a great deal.
San Benito is q miles from the
border and about 10 or 20 miles from
the coast. | made a trip to the border
Monday and saw real Mexican terri
tory and the Rio Grande river, also the
noted old Ft. Brown and Catholic Mis-
sion Of early days. The Rio Grande
river is a little larger than the James
at Huron.
The Mexican people, especially the
class we have here, are not very APP
pealing to a northerner. They are
mostly of a poor class, half breeds and
a few Indians. They are not at all
very brilliant, seem to be a real ignor-
ant class, Of course there are excep-
tons in the younger generation. Their
living quarters are not as good as
some South Dakota barns. Their
wearing apparel is crude and sloppy.
OF curse we have some high class
Mexicans, but they are entirely differ
tue and the others are large and well
built. The Indians are of course the
same as all other Indian races.
In town the Mexican race people live
or the west side of the canal, and
none of US are allowed to go across
into their town, without special per-
mission from a colonel.
People employ themselves in or
binary small town duties except the
cotton mill, the ice and sugar mill.
They have a few small wholesale
houses. Mexicans and civilians seem
to be on part friendly terms, but a
man with a military suit must be d
little careful especially if he goes out
side of the town. We are ordered to
carry guns and ammunition whenever
we take a walking trip outside of the
city limits.

One of A. H. Woods biggest
stage successes, "The Test" has
been produced as Pathe Gold

of George Fitzmaurice, who di-
rected such famous Pathe Gold
Rooster hits as "Via Wireless"
"At Bay and New York"
The star is Jane Grey, famous

many parts on Broadway, includ-
ing that of Massakoff in "The
Chocolate Soldier" Inez Buck, star

audience"

Board of Trustees, the newly select
ed out-of-town teachers being Miss
Delcamp, an instructor the past year
in Pennsylvania University, Lexing
ton, whose home is in Indiana, and
Miss Walker, of North Carolina. The
former will be connected with the

Three marriages occurred among
Lancaster young folks Wednesday,
that being a record breaker here for
June weddings.
Miss Katie Simpson, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. U. D. Simpson, and Mr..
E. P. Brown, the Lancaster postmas-
ter, were married at o'clock We'd
nesday morning, leaving for short

Miss Nora Brown, daughter of r.
S. Brown, former Lancaster mer-
chant, and Mr.. James Hilton, of this
city, were married Wednesday fore
noon at the home of the brides par
ents at Paris Crossing, Indiana. The
bride was a graduate last June of
the Lancaster High School, and the
groom is a pharmacist in j. E.
Stormes' drug store.
Miss Bessie Layton, daughter of
Mr.. Aleck Layton, wealthy Gar
rard farmer. and Mr.. Charles Ia
none, of this city, drove to Dan
vile, where they were married We'd

daughter, Miss Mary Clay, and sons,
Woodruff and Bradford, of Tulsa,
Ok, are here for visit at their for
mer home. They came to this city

ment and saw their talented young
daughter receive her diploma from
that famous institution, and very
creditably acquit herself in deliver
ing an address as President of the

EIGHTH DISTRICT POLITICS
ALL ABOARD FOR THE NOVEM-
Der ELECTION.

President Wilson will be reelected
Tor the splendid Legislative achieve
ments accomplished during his adj
mlnstration. By the same token, the
Democrats who have been his CO.
laborers and fellow-workers in his
legislative program merit the en-
dorsement of the people. The entire
country is a profoundly grateful to
the President and the Democratic
Congress who have kept our country
at peace when the rest of the world
is at war. The prosperity of the peo-
pie is unquestioned. If the Republi-
cans and Bull Moose parties can af-
ford to compose their differences as
they did at Chicago, surely the demo-
Gratis of this district can learn time
ly and useful lesson from that exam
pie. The last State election showed
a very narrow margin for the Demo-
Gratis. This majority can not be in
creased by contests waged on vote
losing issues and the reopening of
old sores resulting from the distribu-
ton of patronage. At this crucial
time, the people demand the guaran-
tee of record of things done. They
know that the salary is a fixed
charge regardless of who is nominal
ted and they futher know that who
ever is nominated in the Congress
ional contest will want to hold the
office as long as his services are sat
isfactory to the people. With the
questions of such moment and mag
nitude up for settlement, it is obvious
that those who have had experience
and been in touch with the conditions
are better equipped to meet the de-
mands of the times than those who
have not had such experience. AS the
President has the foreign and domes-
tic situation at his fingers ends and
is familiar with the entire situation,
so in less degree, the Congressman
who have been on the job, are better
equipped than any new man. In or
der that Kentucky may be found in
the Wilson column, contests which
only aid Republicans should be stop
ped and we suggest that the friends
of the opposing candidates for Con-
gress in this district take such steps
as will contribute to harmony by ad-
justing their differences and thereby
insuring Kentucky's electoral vote
for President Wilson.

Yet surely he had still at heart some
OF the good old principles to which as
young men they had both subscribed,
and through these he could be reached.
Harry was thoughtless,. self-indulgent
and full Of fun, but he was not evil
Remembering all this Delaine chang
cd MS course, and instead of going
nome went straight to Somerdyke's
motel Upon inquiry he learned that
Harry had just come in and was in
his room, where Kelley was conduct
ed after he had announced himself
on the house telephone.
Hello, old man. Harry greeted
him cordially. What's up?" 1 saw
you only just now, and here you blow
in an hour later Sit down and have
smoke while | dress
Thanks, no, Delaine replied Go
on dressing-don't mind me- | can
only stay for a few minutes, as I'm due
at my apartment to dinner and YOU
want to feed also ~"
III | didn't have an engagement in
little while I'd insist on your eating
here with me-" said Harry But I'm
lust going to eat bite and then meet
Ben Hadley, who is in town for a
few days. We're going down to Coney
just for the sail, and wen have supper
after our return. By the way, I've al
most persuaded Ben to go to South
America when | go back. There's a
good engineering opening there for
him. You remember Ben--dont you?
He's from Baltimore, you know"
Sure! knew him at school but
haven't seen him for years"
Pretty good chap" commented Har-
ry, land first-rate company"
We'll. I won't keep you from him
long" said Delaine "To come to the
point, Harry, I want to speak to you
about my little stenographer. No
don't laugh" as Somerdyke grinred.
She's of no consequence to me except
that she's in my employ. But she's a
good girl Harry, and young and sus-
ceptible. Don't let her make foo! of
herself over you, old man. She prob
ably has never had a man pay her any
attention before"
Then, SO gravely that Somerdyke
listened with more outward serious
ness than was natural to him, Delaine
told him of these two girls-how they
had come to New York from an I'M
congenial home to earn their own liv-
ing, that they were having hard time,
and that the older one was trying to
be both mother and sister to the
younger one.
Believe me, she's got her hands
full if she expects to keep tab on that
giddy little creature" Somerdyke re-
marked. II say, Kel, you seem might

older sister"

Try and think of something to say to
old Fox.
Well, you certainly gave me a
scare at first said Billy Goose as
pert as he could. "rd rather have
you carry me off than old Postum or
old Coon; you are much handsomer
than either of them"
Old Fox did not answer. SO Billy
Goose tried again. for the teeth OF old
Fox were hurting and he knew his
time was short if he did not think
quickly
oh! Mr.. Fox" said Billy Goose, Il

handsome teeth to anyone you are
going to eat if they ask you, and be-
fore you eat me wish you would open
your mouth. for l expect / will not

full, but | have never been close
enough to you to see 1t, and now am
at the wrong end, and will you show

eat me? | shall die happy then"
Old Fox was proud of his teeth and
his bushy tail, and he could see no
reason why he should not make Billy
Goo5e's last hours happy. so he drop.
ped him on the ground and opened
his mouth wide; then he turned
around and waved his bushy tail. and
then turned back to pick up Billy
Goose. OF course, he was not there
for he was away back to the BARNARD
by this time, telling everybody how
he fooled old foxy Fox.
Il don't believe a word that silly
Billy Goose says" said old Madam
Brown Hen. "Old Fox never let 20
once he got you in his mouth, know. !"
Yes, he did let me go, and | can
show you where he bit my wing" said
Billy Goose, holding out his injured
wing for all Of them to see.
But what did you say to him ?"
asked all the others.
oh! it wouldn't do you any good to
know" said Billy Goose ''Old Fox
would not be taken in again by the
same thing told him. But I got
away, didn't /, mother? l told you
