Law-Routed Thirsty.

ctnoros has become the oesophagus of

For tourists and natives are crossing
the Rio Grande from Brownsville to ex
tinguish their sun-dried thirsts. Amer

it easy for the visitors.
“Klondike” and “blackjack” games are
running. Dice rattle. Two roulet wheels
spin constantly. The tables totter be
neath coin left by travelers who “knew
how to beat the game.”
It’s a great life.
Knights of the grip slip from the
water wagon. Then they toddle out to
be Clvvered to the United States. Many
:i telegram is sent from Brownsville for
money.
Brownsville persons, envious of the
"trade’ going to Mexico, have made at
tempts, under cover, to “compete.” Sev
eral such enterprises have been stopped.
And the consulates are still kept busy
passing out passports at $2.50 per.
