VV; - • • : STATE CONVENTION OF » TEXAS SUNDAY SCHOOLS (Continued from page one.) works by way of suggestion, not by! authority. It therefore help* thous-' ands, it hinders none. Its conven tions and institutes are free schools of method, open to all Sunday school workers. The leaders in Sunday school though of the various denom inations cooperate and actively help in this. The conv'- .on system is the mother of all C-*ifday school im provement and work. No one who I desires to have a better Sunday school or be a better worker will miss one of these conventions. When ever you put any time, talent or money into this organized Sunday school work, you get back all you put in, and all that everyone else* of all other denominations put in. Pastors and superintendents are urged to calle a meeting at once, and select delegates from their school to attend the convention, and appoint one of the number as a Convention Booster, to arrange with the dele gates from other schools to come in a body. Be sure and see that J. W.; Logan, chairman, 408 Flateau Bldg., Dallas, is advised at once as to the number. Hoyin{~ to see you at the conven tion, we are, sincerely yours, Robert H.

Jorge Bielenberg, for many years viec consul at Matamoros, died early on Saturday morning, and the funeral took place from Hinkley's undertak ing rooms in the afternoon. Mr. Bielenberg was well known to both the old and newer residents of Brownsville, and had many friends here. He was born in Holstein, Ger many in 1 849, and came to Mata moros, in 1874, which city was his residence until his death. He was a watchmaker by trade, and for many years followed that calling, being an expert in the business. A nephew resides at Deer Lodge," Montana, and is the only known relative on this sied of the Atlantic. Mr. Bielenberg had a suite of room overlooking the Plaza de Hi dalgo and usually dinPd at Der roselts' French restaurant, and was a familiar figure to all its patrons. : He was interested in several Mexi can real estate projects, but it is not known in just what shape hi? interests were. Mr. Bielenberg was apparently in good health until recently, when his mind commenced failing, and his actions became so strange that he was adjudged insane and ordered to be taken to the asylum. The opin ion of the examining physicians was I that he was suffering from paresis, and that death would only be a mat ter of time, although his demise was not expected so quickly. Mr. Bielenberg was always genial and took delight in showing visitors the various haciendas around Mata moros and explaining to them Mexi can life and customs. He was al ; ways ready to go out of his way to do a kindly act, and the news of his !death Is learned with sorrow by a jlarjje circle of acquaintances. — ■' ■ " i i ^ NEW BASEBALL LEAGUE EXPECTED TO BE FORMED ' ■ ■ That1 there may be a new base ball league was announced Saturday by i F. H. Willlans, manager of the | Brownsville team. If the new plans are put through, the new aggrega tion might well be called the I^wer Rio Grande League. It is proposed to lower the salary I limit, so that it will be in reach of the smaller towns. i The tow’ns that are expected to become franchise holders are Brownsville, Mission, McAllen. San Betrlto, Mercedes, Harlengen and Donna. While a stingy man may not have many friends, he is less likely to need them. A drug store complexion doesn t greatly fool a man who is interested enough to care much. 4 / *************** * * ( • • * SCRIPTURE. • • V V ***************** I Corinthiam 13 Though 1 speak with the tongue* of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mys teries, and all knowledge: and though I have all faith, so that 1 *ould remove mountains, and have not (harity, 1 am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though 1 give my body to be burned, and have not, charity, it proflteth me nothing. Charity suflfereth long, and Is kir.d; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up. Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but re jolceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When 1 was a child, l spake as a child. 1 understood as a child. 1 thought as a child: but when 1 be came a man. I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly: but then face to face: now 1 know in part; but then shall I know even as also l am known. And now abideth faith, hope, char ity, these three; but the greatest oT thses is charity. /•N /X> O' O' 'm Ov • *> O' O' O , IN O' ON O' O' O' O’ * * THE NATIONAL GAME. ***#********##* # # J|* •/,' ...

A broken flange on the jjlw. ’ of i la freight car is responsible tor the ‘donation of a lot of valuable Ixjwer i Rio Grande Valley produce to the fishes of Buffalc Bayou at Housion last Friday. By /of those strange accidents, which only a railroad man lean explain satisfactoriy, a train of; j refrigerator cars which were being j handled by a terminal company went j jdown into the stream carrying with j (them a portion of the bridge over) which they had been passing. The j Post says: The train of refrigerater cars was a portion of the present large ship-1 j m*»nt8 coming from the Lower Rioj Grande Valley and Brownsville country. Curiously, this bridge was; second on the trip of the cars that! gave trouble. The train was detour- j (ed from the Brownsville railroad into Houston over the San Antonio; and Aransas Pass railroad on account j of a defective or burned bridge at, Port Ijavaca river.
