ocrats were pitted against one Repub-
hean on election day. Kleberg won
over the field
But probably the man who could
have given him the closest race with
drew for the sake of party harmony
That man was County Judge william
Wurzbach, brother Of Harry, and
Democrat.
Gossip has it that Brother Will
liam" wants the seat badly, and will
be In the running next year.
Kleberg's term is for only one year.
In the primaries of 1882 he must seek
denomination. At that time it will not
be the free-for-aIl fight which existed
in the special election just held.
Democrat must fight It out with
Democrat to determine who will op-
pose the Republican candidate in the
general election.
That's where Brother William is
expected to make his showing.
Ine Wurzbach family Is somewhat Of
a tradition, politically and sentiment
tally. in the fourteenth Texas district.
Harry served as a county Judge before
ne came to Congress, and though he
was Republican in a normally Demo-
cratic district, no one was able to de-

William is county Judge also. Co
ing farther back, the father of the two
brothers was an officer of the Confed-
eracy during the Civil War and led
troops into battle recruited from resi-
dents of that district.
Kleberg must make showing In the
next year if he hopes to hold on to
what he has gained. And that's a hard
thing for freshman in Congress to do,

success in her chosen endeavor. she
seems to have enough ability and de-

She would be willing, apparently, to
work and fight to reach her desired
goal. Many are confident of success,
but this feeling is not justified, as they
do little or nothing themselves, merely
waiting to have money or fame thrust
upon them. This writer should be able
to make her choice of desired achieve

their ultimate completion.

that some would take advantage of her
generous spirit, making unnecessary de-

hard-hearted, she should insist upon
those she may assist helping themselves,

She should not confine herself too
much indoors. Feeling that her work
demands her time, she may perhaps
neglect her health. If she will stop
to realize that good health is necessary
for sustained effort, she will probably
devote more time to out-of-door exer-

have pleasant friends with her, thus
further adding to her enjoyment.

 temples. He had Q few wisps of light yellow hair. The only color was his big blue eyes. He appear ed to be about two months old but Mrs H. said she understood that he was eight months old. It took all his strength to cry between attacks of coughing. I asked about his feeding and was told Mrs c. just left word to give him plenty of milk, nothing else. told Mrs H. the first thing to do was to get Jack under proper supervision and arr ranged to have him brought to the Baby Welfare station the next day. In the meantime I found out more about him. He was nine months old. His mother felt she could not
 bring him home to her neighbOr- hood where everyone knew her. His father thought that if he left a cer- tain sum of money for his care, his duty was done and his responsi-
 bilities ended.
 So Jack was boarded out. No one knew who he was only that his name was "Jack," nothing else, and no one cared much, he could only trust to luck. For nine months he coughed, cried for care and mothers love and was handed bottle of milk. When that was

 For vice. president the candidates are John E. Graham, well known
 member of the local fire department and John J. Lawlor, who has served the past year as chaplain.
 The candidates for chaplain are c. Francis Stein and Michael R.
 Driscoll, the latter being conductor for the past yeak. The Stein family for years has provided many tire less workers for the Eagles. Mike"
 Driscoll as conductor and master of ceremonies of various affairs has also
 been an enthusiastic member. For secretary, J. Lester Brennan,
 successor to the late Alderman Will
 liam F. Mohr, has no opposition. His
 impressive run last year made him an outsta nding candidate. His effi-
 cient work as secretary and his friendly personality have proved a

Opposed by Dr Finn

The office of treasurer will witness a clash between two veterans, Patrick J. Boyce, present holder, and Michael Ferris. William T. Earring ton has no opposition for the office of conductor or John H. Ryan for inside guard. Outside guard has two candidates, Michael Flood and Will liam Kelly. Two nominations have been made for the office of trustee for three years and provides a con- test between Ambrose P. Guilfoile and Hugh B. Riley.
 Dr William H. Murray, present aerie physician and winner in several exciting battles in past years and Dr Alfred J. Finn are the candidates for the honor held by the former. This test of strength will be an interest ing one. Dr Murray. by virtue of his office and his contact with hun dreds of members of the aerie and their family, and his general. activi- ties, being chairman of the recent Eagles bowling tournament, makes a formidable candidate for anyone. But the many friends of pr Alfred J. Finn, one of the city's young doc tors, have been working diligently for several weeks and appear con- fident of success. The contest for aerie physician often overshadows those for other offices.
