Rice farmers in this section say
the crop was never better, the only
regret being the reduction in
acreage. The water has been turn
ed off about one hundred acres
which will be ready to harvest in
a short while. Rice growers here
are very sanguine of a splendid
crop, and price will no doubt be
satisfactory.

The matter of a cleaner city
should be one of great interest to
every citir.cn. Physicians tell us
there is dangar in Repaying vege
tation and cesspools, and common

Then why court disease aud prob
able death by leaving your premises
in an unsanitary condition, when
a slight t-ffort on your part wU
make your home a place of beauty
and enjoyment. Now is the time
to do this, lefore disease comes.
Your mayor is at work, help him.
Remember, like charity, cleanliness
begins at home.

hoping thereby to get some infor
mation lending to its recovery
Last night lie heard a noise outside
and going out to :ivejjtiga.te tilto
causcj ffundi -his. mule iitsuidiug at
the gale. The animal had evident
ly been stolen and escaping from
its captors had returned to its
master, perhaps swimming a resaca
to get back home. Probably the
mule saw the ad, and wishing to
prove our claim that advertising
in Tiot Herald is a paying invest
ment, returned of its own accord.
Whether this is the case or not,
Mr. Fedrolf has his mule, for
which he is very thankful.
Among the passengers out this
morning were Mrs. K. Conner, her
daughter, Miss Bcttie, and son, J.
S. Conner, who are returning to
their old home in Hattiesburg,
Miss., where they will probably
reside. This .estimable family
came to Brownsville about twelve
months ago, with the intention of
locating permtuicntly, but condi
tions over which they had no con
trol caused them to charfge their
mind. During their stay the Con
ner family made many friends
who feel that the city has sustained
a serious loss by their moving
away. We can ill afford to lose
such good people from our city,
and Tint Hhraxj) hopes to some
day aaiaiounee the return of the
Conner family to Brownsville.
Their frftinds here join us in wish
ing them prosperity wherever their
lot is east.
A Sad Death.
Attorney John C. Sullivan, of
San Antonio, who has been here
several days in attendance upon
the special term of district court,
received the sad intelligence this
morning, of thejdeath of his young
est brother, Walter Sullivan, a day
or so since. The young man was
on his way to the Philippines on a
visit to his sister, Mrs. John L.
Clem, wife of Colonel Clem, who
was at one time stationed at Browns
ville. No particulars were received
as to the circumstances of the
drowning, but the sad occurrence
is supposed to have taken place
somewhere in the neighborhood of
the Hawaiian Islands, judging
from the length of time since the
unfortunate man sailed ior the
Philippines.
Walter Sullivan was a young man
of great promise, having only last
year graduated with honors from
Yale, and was destined to make
his way to fame in the business
world.
The Herald is saddened to
hear of the unfortunate death of
this promising young man, and ex
tends its sympathy to the bereaved
family in their loss.
John C. Sullivan left for his
home in San Antonio on this morn
ing's train, and many expressions
of sympathy were heard from
friends of the young man as he de
parted on his sad journey.

CHARLES DEPPEN
Cfaas. Dcppcn's Hacienda,
Opposite Herald Office.
assistant operator at the Western
Union telegraph office in Browns
ville, has resigned his position and
left this morning for Corpus Chris-
ti. Jim is a good operator, a pleas
ant young man and his friends re
gret his departure very much.
John Rutledge, chief clerk at
the St L.. B. & M. depot is suffer
ing considerably from a sore foot,
and is threatened with blood pois
oning. He in some manner re
ceived a slight scratch on his foot,
and last night the member became
swollen and is causing the gentle
man some trouble today. The
Herald hopes no serious results
will follow.
John Closner, high sheriff of
Hidalgo county, champion sugar
maker and onion grower, came
down yesterday evening by the
Mexican National. He reports a
fine rain yesterday, and says every
thing is in a flourishing condition
in his section. Old Hidalgo is re
ceiving additional population all
the time, and a wave of prosperity
is rolling over her fertile bosom.
May she contiuue to prosper is
The Herald's wish.
Civilized Tribes in Philippines.
Of the eight civilized tribes in
the Philippines, the largest is that
of the Visayans, who occupy most
of the islands lying between Luzon
and Mindanao, and form nearly
one-half of the entire civilized pop
ulation. Tagalogs occupy the pro
vinces in the vicinity of Manila.
They rank second, with a little
more than one-fifth of the civilized
peoples, aud the Ilocanos rank
third, with approximately one
eighth. Anion? the wiTS tribes the
Moros are the most munerous,. com
prising about two-fiffttf of the non
Christian population.
liven among the Christian tribes
the tribal distinctions are clearly
marked. The members of the dif
ferent tribes rarely mix In villages
or intermarry, and, with the ex
ception of the Ilocanos, who have
migrated from their original terri
tory and settled in ( neighboring
provinces, the people show little
tendency toward expansion or col
onisation. When the average citizen says
that he cannot do his town any
good he never made a greater mis
take in his life. Of course there
are some who can do more than
others and there arc still others
who take a greater pride in the
work of upbuilding than others,
but no man is without his influence
and the there is not a man who
cannot help out wonderfully. For
that reason every genuine citizen
of every town should make of him
self a committee of one to see that
the town in which he lives gets all
the advertising and pushing that is
Qomihg to it even if he has to do
it all. - So help to build. You can
do it if you want to Lockhart
