They glanced uneasily at Old
Dorm sitting silently. his long chin
resting on the handle Of a cane
clutched between lean knees. Oc-
casional whispering sounded. IL
almost as though they expected
old Dorm suddenly to fly, astride
Is cane. out a window into the
greyness OF the day.
Harry Fox, assistant district at
t0rney, and Walter "A. Drews OF the
state board Of medical examiners,
conducted the hearing. They X
pressed themselves today as con-
WINGED that the charges or sorcery
against Dorm were without founda-
ton.
These charges were that by the
strange power witches and wizards
are presumed to have, Dorm caused
cows 10 run dry. apples to rot on
trees and hens to cease laying eggs
He had placed a curse, the charges
said. on growing crops; and long
spells or sickness had come 70 the
home OF his sister.
IN continuing the hearing today,
Fox and Drews said that while sat-
isfied that the hex" stories were
foundaticnleSs as concerned Dorm,
they (Fox and Drews) were curious
70 hear more OF the part Herman g
Englehardt. a Rockford. IL. spirit
ualist, may have played. They
sought to determine whether Engie-
hardt practiced medicine without q
license.
Dorm said Englehardt treated"
him several times for an ailment.
Once there was a farm house Sc
ance. and Dorm said the spiritualist
accused him OF reading black
books and p~racticing evil ways"

THREE SMASHES
In One PLACE
Small Coupe Goes in Ditch
And Others Attempt
To Follow Suit

Three cars we're badly damaged.
two women were taken TO the hos
p:tal, and one man was arrested as
the result Of two separate and dis
tinct accidents that occurred on
Highway No. II Tuesday at identi-
cally the same place.
The first accident occurred about
) o'clock Tuesday afternoon, a small
coupe leaving the road and diving
into q deep ditch. Only the top and
a portion OF the back Of the car
could be seen from the highway af-
ter the accident, In which two wo-
men were cut and taken TO the
Valley Baptist hospital at Harlin-
gen. Hospital authorities Wednes-
day morning disclosed that wounds
we're not serious, and that after
treatment the two women were re-
leased. The accident was not in
v~estigated by the traffic department,
and names were not obtained. The
car bore a La Feria tire cover. and
one. OF the occupants was said 70
be a Miss Clifton.
The second accident occurred az
about 8 o'clock while the coupe was
being pulled out Of the ditch. "A car
belonging to Steve Brodie OF Dallas
forced q large delivery truck be-
longing to the Perez bakery OF
Brownsville off the road and into
the ditch almost on top Of the coupe,
The cable stretched between the
coupe and the wrecker was all that
saved the truck from Tipping over
into the ditch. The truck was rest
ing on two wheels, propped against
the cable.
Mr.. Brodie was placed under ar
rest by Officer z. z. Sadler. and he
will likely be tried during the latter
part Of this week. Brodie's car was
damaged. and the truck was also
badly damaged.
All accidents occurred near the
Ortiz dairy. about three miles from
Brownsville, on the southwest side
OF the highway.

RIFLE RANGE
SOUGHT FOR
FORT BROWN
Committee to Meet
To Arrange For
Construction

"A rifle range near Brownsville.
primarily for the use Of Fort Brown
soldiers hut which will also be open
to civilians, will probably be the
result of a meeting Friday Of a
committee or Brownsville citizens
composed Of Sam Perl, Arthur Hipp.
C. c. Henderson. Bert Cromack and
Il. q. Batsell with Major Grow, OF
the local army post.
Agitation for an adequate range
has been under way for some time.
but nothing definite had been done
until the meeting Friday morning
was announced. The estimated cost
Is $500.
It has been explained that due
to the absence of a rifle range here
soldiers from Fort Brown have been
forced to go TO Fort Ringgold for
practice. This has resulted in an
average OF one-third Of the local
troops being away at all times. Look
ing at the situation from a CONNER
cial angle, this means that one-third
OF the annual payroll Of s260.000
is being spent out Of Brownsville.
Announcement has been made
that development in and around
Rio Grande City. and the construc-
ton Of q highway near the pres
ent site OF the rifle range there.
will necessitate the abandonment
OF the range. This mean that II a
range is not constructed here. SOL
diers will have TO journey to Fort
Macintosh. and consequently be
gone from Brownsville much longer.
Civilians. Too
Civilians would have the use Of
the range for practice II one Is
constructed here. according 10 Ma
jor Grow. A club may be organized
OF local citizens, and affiliation OBJ
tanned with the National Rifle as
ISOLATION. If this Is done, arrange
ments can be made whereby rifles
may be borrowed from Fort Brown
free Of charge. and ammunition be
purchased at special reduced rates.
An army officer will be In charge
ard give instructions.
An investigation by the chamber
OF commerce here has revealed that
there are any number Of suitable
sites around Brownsville for a
range, and the committee named
TO meet with Major Grow will prob
ably decide upon a definite loca-
ton during the Friday morning
meeting.
A club. the only one In the VAL
ley at present. has been organized
at Mission, and has become affili-
ated with the national association.
An officer from Fort Ringgold gives
instructions. Major Grow Is han

RIO THREATENS
TO TAX BANKS
Big Rise Now Coming From
Laredo With San Juan
Flow Unknown

If the San Juan river, a tributary
OF the Rio Grande in Mexico, brings
any large amount OF water into the
international border stream within
the next two days. this, added to
the amount already in the river and
flowing towards the Rio Grande.
may cause a flood with danger Of
the water escaping the banks.
At Laredo Wednesday morning
the river was GA feet. a rise Of ST
feet since last night. The Rio
Grande Is unusually wide at Laredo.
and this amount OF water there
will result in the river becoming
two-thirds full in Brownsville and
the Lower Valley. according 10
weather chief w. ]. Schnurbusch
today.
At Rio Grande City a rise Of So
feet has been noticed during the
past "a hours, Mr.. Schnurbusch
said.
The present amount Of water in
the river will bring IL two-thirds
full. but II any water comes from
the San Juan. a powerful tributary
entering the river from Mexico,
there will be danger OF a fall flood.
A study Of past records shows that
during this time OF year. late Sep
tember or during October, floods
are common in the Valley.
The San Juan drains a portion
Of what Is known as the watershed
of the Rio Grande.
Caution has been advised. The
rise here Is expected 70 be within
