No. Lights in the City.

No. Lights In the City.
There are no lights in the city ex-
cept candles and kerosene lamps, and
there will be no electrical power for
weeks.
The city realizes it must start all
over again, and asks the help of the
people of Texas in it's reconstruction.
Cities adjacent to Corpus Christi
suffered in proportion to this city.
The sanitation of the city is becom-
ing acute. Shiny mud covers the city's
streets and the insides of all building
covered by the waters. Disinfectants
have been spread to allay the danger
of an epidemic. Bodies of animals
washed ashore are being burned as
fast as they are washed in.
Corpus Christi is divided into sec
tions, the Bluff section and the beach
section. Comparatively slight damage
was done to the Bluff section of the
city, and what damage was done was
by the wind. Hundreds of bungalows
on the beach were destroyed in nu-
merous instances being impossible to
even locate the place where houses
stood. What houses stand in this sec
tion are covered with a thick coat of
crude oil and mud. The contents are
entirely gone. Many people lost ev-
erything except the clothes they wore,
and in many instances bathing suit
was all they had on. Many stayed
with their property too long, going, as
the water rose. to upper stories and
finally on the roof. Then as the
houses were swept away rescue was
impossible.
Rail Communication Established.
The Spohn Sanitarium on the North
Beach, together with the Beach Hotel,
which was being used as public
health service hospital, are the only
buildings standing in this section.
They stand as silent sentinals over
the vast stricken waste. At the Spohn
Sanitarium the patients and Sisters
moved from one room to another as
the various wings were swept away.
Prayers were offered through the
night, and as the dawn OF Monday
came, there came a cessation

cy being offered up were turned to
prayers of thankfulness. These two

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex, Sept. 1S
(by maiD.-Wfth a death list that
probably will exceed 300, Corpus
Christi is emerging bravely from the
storm and hurricane that swept the
city all day Sunday and early Monday
morning. The debris is being cleared
away rapidly, but as it is removed vic
tins are being uncovered. The city
has been under martial law up to to-
day, but is now under charge of the
state. Soldiers have been doing guard
duty, and helping keep order. The
Red Cross is doing heroic work, its
work here vying with the great work
it did ON the fields of France. Per-
sonal stories of heroism equal those
of the war
What was the Naples of the Gulf to-
day lies like. wounded animal-lick-
ing its wounds, it's true, with brave
stoicism. From all parts of the state
comes merciful help. Messages offer
ing assistance are coming from out
the state.
Water, during the crest of the storm
and for several hours following, stood
eight to ten feet in the streets. Debris
was piled six and eight feet high after
the water receeded. Laborers began
the work of clearing the city's down
town streets as soon as possible. 1t
will be several days, however, before
it is all cleared away.
Entire Blocks Swept Clean.
1t is hard to realize the damage
wrought by the storm. Entire blocks
were swept clean, both in the resi-
dence and business section of the city.
Very few lives were, lost in the busi-
ness district. Most of those losing
their lives lived in the beach section
of the city. Hundreds of houses were
ruthlessly>swept away by the storm,
some of them holding twenty and thir-
ty people. Hundreds were trapped by
the rising waters, while others lost
their lives in efforts to reach places
of safety.
The most tragic feature of the res
cue work at this stage is the inability
to identify the storm victims. Crude
oil, released on the bay when storage
tanks at neighboring port collapsed,
so burned and blackened the faces OF
the storm victims that it was impossi-
BILE to recognize their features. 1t is
possible that some of the people will
be identified by bits of jewelry taken
from their bodies. These are being
indexed for Identification. Bodies were

INVENTIVE GENIUS
MAKES CAL0MEL
DELIGHTFUL
Calomel, The Most Valuable of Drugs
Now Purified From Its Unpleas-
ant and Sickening Quail
ties-"CalOtabs" the
New Name.

The medicinal virtues Of calomel are
in no way connected with its nauseat-
ing and dangerous qualities, as is
proven by the fact that the new calo-
mel tablet, called Calotabs is free
from Objectionable effects yet retains
all of the r-cleansing and system
purifying qualities of the old-style
calomel. For biliousness, constipation
and indigestion, and wherever Gallo
mel is essential, the new de-nauseat-
ed calomel tablet is a practically per-
feet remedy.
To inspire public confidence in this
new discovery the manufacturers
have authorized druggists every
where to refund the price if the Gus
toner is not perfectly delighted,
with Calotabs. Sold only in original
packages, sealed. Price thirtq-five
cents. One tablet at bedtime, with
swallow of water. No taste, no maui
sea. no gripping, no salts. You wake up
in the morning with clean liver,
feeling fine, and hearty appetite.
Eat what you please-no danger

WOMEN OF TAMPA
HAVE PLAN TO
SUPPRESS VICE
Will Furnish Wives With
Record of Double Life"
of Husbands.
(By The Associated Press.)


Tampa, Ria, June 12.-Five hun
bred Tampa women have formed the
Woman's Protective league and say
they propose to clean up organized
vice by direct action-that they pro-
pose to undermine it's support.
By the establishment of sort OF
moral credit bureau this organization
proposes to furnish any woman a
confidential report on the double
life" of her husband if she wants one.
The inquirer does not even need to
give her own name in making the in
quiry; she may designate post office
box address or any place where an
agent of the league may deposit the
report on it's investigation.
Organizers of the bureau say that
70 of their number have pledged to do
the investigating work in the open
while the remainder swill work in
secret.
$50 many have such old reprobates
for husbands" said one of the chiefs,
"They can't work openly because
these husbands won't let them.
Therefore they will work secretly"
The theory of the league is that if a
man has not been walking the
straight and narrow path one of the
500 will know about tor at least
can find out.

RED CROSS LIST
NOW ABOUT 1,7OO
Brattleboro Over 400 Short of Mem
bership Quota No Reports Yet
from Windham County Towns.

The spirit of America is being meas
ured this week just in proportion as
citizens respond to the Red Cross roll
call, and reports from workers in Brat
tleboro indicate lack of the real
American spirit. Brattleboro's IS quota
for memberships was 2,130 and up to
last night only about 100 had en-
rolled. No returns have been received
from any of the county towns.
Persons who have hesitated or de-
chned to join should bear in mind the
babies of America who need care, the
mothers who do not know how to care
for themselves or their babies, and the
soldier boys in hospitals who are leg
less, armless or sightless; the boys who
are slowly coming back from the shock
and those who are fighting death away
hour by hour.
Definite decision has been reached to
carry the campaign through this week
and if anyone who has been skipped
will telephone to headquarters in the
town hall building one of the canvass
ers will call for the membership fee.

Knows of No Conference.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l3-There is to
be no compromise with the Bolshevik
government in Russia by the United
States and no move is contemplated
which could be considered as offering to
confer with the Bolshevik element in
that country, it was learned today at the
state department. officials said there
had been no exchange of notes between
this government and the British or any
other government concerning sugges-
tions that conference with the Bolshe
vik be undertaken.
The country's attitude is the same
now, it was said, as it was last year
when Secretary Lansing appealed to the
civilized nations of the world to declare
the Bolsheyiki outlaws. Emphasizing
that there could be no compromise with
the Bolsheviki officials, he said the re
cent radical outbreaks in the United
States were largely due to Bolsheviki in
fluence.
