A matter of paramount importance
which will, come before the different
conferences in Texas will be the es
tablishment of a university in Texas
This may result in the establishment
of a full university at Georgetown, or
it may be that an entirely new, uni
versity may eb established elsewhere.
The establishment of a university
separate from the southwestern uni
versity at Georgetown has been a
vexed question in the denomination
for a number of years. It is believed
that West Texas holds the balance
of power and in the final decision it
is believed the vote will be in favor
of the establishment of a full univer
sity at Georgetown.
Bishop Atkins has announced that
a number of strong men will be
brought to this conference, and it is
likely that a number of changes will
be made. So far as the time limit
is concerned nearly all of the San An

after effects are weakness, nervousness,

MSPONOENT GIRL
' SWALLOWS ACID
Despondent, a woman known as
Rose Lamb, 24 years old, went to her
room in a house at 205 North Laredo
street Saturday afternoon at 3 o’clock
and swallowing an ounce of carbolic
acid, died ten minutes later. Her
groans attracted the woman who con
ducts the place and she summoned
two physicians, but death ensued five
minutes after their arrival on the
scene.
The body was taken to the Shelley-
Loring morgue, where it was pre
pared for burial and will be held
pending advices from relatives, who
are said to reside in the northern
part of the state. At the house where
the young woman took the drug, the
occupants stated that they knew very
little concerning the dead woman's
former place of residence, or rea.
name, and nothing of her relatives.
All they knew was that she had been
rooming at that place,during the past
several months and that she had late
ly been very despondent.

President Is Anxious to Have
Census Correct —Tacoma
Heavily Padded.
: United Press.
Washington. Oct. 15. —The census
bureau sprang a big sensation tonight
when it officially announced that pad
i ding had been discovered in the cen
sus returns for Tacoma. Wash.; Port
hind. Ore.; Seattle, Wash.: Aberdeen,
I Wash.; Minneapolis. Minn ; Boise.
Idaho; Great Falls, Mont., and Fort
Smith, Ark.
A letter from President Taft to
Secretary Nagle and made public by
Director Durknd. of the census bu
reau. says in part:
“The cases of all those who appear
ed to have violated the law should be
investigated by the grand jury and
if rtifficient evidence is found to jus
tify it they should be indicted and
prosecuted at once. Nothing will so
conduce to secure .a proper census as
the prosecution of those who attempt
to fraud.”
The present correct population of
Tacoma. Wash., was announced to be
32.972, an increase since 1900 of 45.-
258. or 120 ber cent. It was stated
that the padding amounted to not less_
