Infant Deaths Increased

Moreover, there was an increase
in deaths of infants under l year
old. from 2675 in 1888 to 1855 in
1884, whereas, in years preceding
1888. there had been yearly a
marked decrease in deaths under
this classification.
The summary suggests that the
extreme heat of last summer may
have been a contributing cause to
infant deaths. and the report shows
an astonishing increase in deaths
from measles from Is in 1888 and
II n 1882 TO the alarming total
of Dps in 1884, a mark exceeded
by only two previous years. 1926
and 1923.
Scarlet Fever Jumps
The report also shows a marked
increase in deaths of infants from
whooping cough, which jumped
from 20 in 1888 to 189 in 1884
Scarlet fever deaths jumped
from Sc in 1888 to 121 in 1884, a
mark not equalled in any of the
other IL years recorded, and pneu-
mOnia deaths jumped from 1858 in
1898 to 1881 in 1894. Typhoid
deaths were up slightly.
On the bright side of the pic
ture were reductions in the raw
ages of syphilis. tetanus, malaria,
influenza and diphtheria.
Also on the bright side was a
reduction in tuberculosis deaths
from 1853 in 1888 to 1888 IN 1884.
Cancer caused the most deaths,
1913. ard small poX the fewest, one.

mer Staying Of his 33-year-old bride
January 4 last.
Hamiin has been held in the Pot
ter county Jail since January 3.
Sheriff Bill Adams said he made a
statement concerning the Staying
on that day.
A motion by Defense Attorney E.
T. Miller that he be allowed to
examine the statement Saturday
precipitated a controversy that re-
suited In the technical arrest Of
District Attorney Grady Hazlewood
and Special Prosecutor <. A. Simp-
son.
Contempt proceedings against
them were dropped when they sur
rendered the statement Saturday.
Hamlin signed the statement
after an all-night grilling. a few
hours after the burial OF his wife.
A special venire OF 400 has been
called and both state and defense
announced they would be ready for
trial. Miller said the defense prob
ably would base its case on a plea
Of insanity.

repeated blows, was found slain In
the kitchen Of her home. Her purse
was empty and rings had been
stripped from her fingers.

DANCY URGES
new GAS TAX

The bill providing for an addi-
tional one-cent gasoline tax TO aid
In paying county road bond indebt-
edness has q fighting chance OF be-
coming a law. according to County
Judge o. G. Dancy who returned
here Saturday after attending a
hearing on the proposed measure in
the state capitol Thursday.
After the hearing before the house
comittee On revenues and taxation.
the committee reported the tll out
favorably by a vote OF III to 3.
If passed. this bill will lift a bond
ed debt Of around 81. 100000 off Cam
eron county property owners, 1t Is
estimated.
The one-cent levy would increase
the gasoline tax TO six cents. but. 1t
Is pointed out. 20 states r collect
ing gasoline taxes OF six cents or
more.
Judge Dancy and other members
Of the Cameron county commission
ers' court have been working in be-
half Of the proposed measure.
The chief effect Of this bill would
be to lift the road debt off the prop
erty owners and place II on those
who use the roads.

Bids Will Be

Bids for the Cameron county de-
poSitory will be opened BY the com
miSsioners' court at the courthouse
here Monday morning.
Bids Of three Cameron county
banks were rejected when opened
several weeks ago and bids we're or
dered readvertised.
The commissioners court went 10
Austin recently TO confer with the
state comptroller and other state
officials in regard to the depository.
They found that practically every
county in the state is confronted
with the same problem that they
were-banks are unwilling 70 bid
over n per cent interest for de-
poSitory accounts.
The banks. as a rule, have more
cash or hand than they need and
are continuing to keep their assets
as liquid as possible. For this res-
son they arc unable to pay high rates
for the repositories for which sub
Stantial bonds must be posted.

Proponents Of a plan for govern

reviewed self -liquidating features OF

They planned TO ask the house

Streiff said engineers had estim-

Brazos at a cost OF 5 mills per kilo-
watt hour. compared with the pres
ent cost Of 5 cents. He used graphs
to show power consumption In Tex
as was increasing steadily and
said there should be little difficulty
in locating available markets.
Brazos power. he said. would be
used TO supplement the sources now
available in Texas and would in no
way compete with them, explaining
that the new power would take
care OF peak consumption.
Norris and Streiff said that the
Whitney dam in Hill county and
the Postum Kingdom dam in Palo

among the first constructed. They
