THE BATTALION
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 16, 1976
1076
ANDERSON COUNTY — The
prisoners now on trial before the
District Court of this county for plac
ing obstructions on the railroad
tracks should be a warning to all
young men to keep out of bad com
pany and let whiskey alone. Some of
these prisoners had the reputation of
being good boys where they were
raised.
AUSTIN — The first carload of
wheat ever shipped from Travis
County was shipped Monday. There
will be a very large surplus of wheat
and oats for shipment from this sec
tion this season, and until mills, are
erected, Galveston will get the
surplus if prices are available.
GALVESTON — A prominent Cen
tral Railroad man yesterday said that
if there were buyers for the amount,
that at least two million bushels of
wheat could be sent to the port of
Galveston between the present time
and November.
LIMESTONE COUNTY — The ex
amination of the students at Trinity
University, Tehuscana, took place
last week. A number of our citizens
were in attendance, and all express
themselves highly pleased with what
they saw and heard. The University
is perhaps the most prosperous in
stitution of learning in the state.
SAN ANTONIO — General Devlin,
United States Army, commanding
officer of the Rio Grande district, has
effected arrangements with the Mex
ican authorities to prevent maraud
ing from either side ol the Rio Bravo.
BRENHAM — A tramp run out of
Houston by the authorities there was
arrested last night for stealing a hat
out of a house. No more immigrants
of this kind are wanted here, for our
jail now contains thirty rascals, and
heavy taxation is bankrupting us.
FORT WORTH — Drs. Burts and
Field have had a new office erected,
and you can have a leg cut off or your
insides taken out and replaced in the
most skillful manner known to the
art. If the medical association objects
to this gratuitous notice ol these
gentlemen, because it violates their
rules of ethics, we will take it all
back, and simply say they can fix up
as nauseous a dose as anybody, when
they try.
SAN ANTONIO — The time is not
far distant in Texas when the only
fences that will be necessary are
those for enclosing stock. Farm fenc
ing costs ten times more than the
stock fencing would, and as there are
and always will be ten farmers to one
stock raiser, it is easy to see that
stock fencing will be adopted as a
relief from the great expense of farm
ing fencing. The cost of farm fencing
is the greatest tax paid by the people
of the United States.
