Treat the Public right and the
Public will treat you right. That
is a safe proposition. That great
unknown quantity, the Public,
is a firm believer in a square
deal. Occasionally one may be
able to deceave the public and
get the better of it, but as a rule
it is safe and of more benefit to
tote fair with the Public. It is
always willing to do what is
right, and will meet every obli-
gation fairly and squarely, and
it expects every one else to do
the same.
When the Banda Mexican Gen-
eral Ignacio Zaragoza was get-
ting organized a year or so ago a
collection was taken up by popu- purpose of raising funds to send

getting its concerts. There was
some resentment felt. It is true
the Band has been very liberal
and they have given of their
time and talent on many public
occasions without, charge.' This f
the public accepted and felt ap-
preciative. This is also, credita-
ble to the Band for they did not
promise that. Since then they
have advertised that they must
charge for their services. That
is alright, "too. ,a
But now the public gets even.
Last week the Band wanted to
go to San Antonio and take part
in the parades there and repre-
sent Eagle Pass at the Carnival.
A list was circulated for the

lar subscription to enable the
band to purchase instruments
and other things. Several hun-
dred dollars were subscribed by
the business people of the city.
The band asked subscriptions on
its promise tc give two concerts
per week on San Juan plaza or
some other suitable place for a
period of two years. Many of
the members were enthusiastic
and purchased their own instru-
ments with their own funds, and
the band purchased uniforms and
otherwise equipped themselves
to creditably represent Eagle
Pass. Many of the subscriptions
were given freely, with no
thought of the condition the
band imposed on itself to give
the concerts. It was a public
institution, a good thing for the
community, and should be sup-
ported. Others, however expect-
ed those semi-weekly concerts.
And those others helped to make
up that great unknown Public
we mentioned above. These
felt that they had not been treat-
ed just exactly right. It is true
the Band began to give the con-
certs, then decided that as there
was no band-stand on the plaza
they would not give any more
until a band stand was provided.
This was not stipulated when
the subscriptions were taken up
and some of that same Public
felt that they were not being
treated fairly. The ladies, al-
ways ready to come to the res-
cue, have taken up the matter
of erecting the Mndstand. But
that does not enter into this
proposition. The public was not
fhe Band to San Antonio. Fif-
teen dollars was subscribed and
the list “taken out of circula-
tion. ” The Public, that great
stickler for a square deal, felt
that it had “put up” enough for
the benefits received, and it did
not propose to “put up” any
more unless it got a square deal
in return. Funny thing, the
Public—but it must be treated
right.
, The Band is a very creditable
institution. One jof which we
are all proud. It shows Eagle
Pass to good advantage, and it
should be maintained. But it
has yet to learn that “you can’t
monkey with the Public. ’ ’ Eagle
Pass needs the Band The Band
needs Eagle Pass. Let’s get to-
gether—and stay together.
Denizen of Australia Remarkable for
Peculiar Method of Hatching
its Eggs.
An ungainly but gifted bird has
just received the’ warmest of wel-
comes at the Zoological Gardens. It
is a malice bird, or Australian mound
builder.
To the casual visitor it is merely
an undistinguished'; bird clothed in
quiet grays and browns, and about
the shape and size.of a half-starved
lien, save that its feet are about four
times larger. It is with these power-
ful feet that the malice bird con-
structs an immense mound of earth
and leaves many times is own height,
whidh it uses as an incubator for its
eggs. The decomposition of the
vegetable matter produces the neces-
sary heat, but when the temperature
rises abnormally the sagacious bird
promptly ventilates the'nest by tun-
neling- into the mound and admit-
ting air. The “Zoo’s” last mallee
bird died as long ago as 1866.—Lon-
don Daily Mail.

Florida Youngsters Fearful That
Young Lady Might After Ail
Take a Little Peep.
J. Curtis Sturtevant, at a dinner
at Palm Beach, illustrated with a
story the modesty of children*
“One warm February morning
here in Florida,” he said, “'I was
motoring with a young lady, and by
a stream we got out to gather flow-
ers. After awhile a boy came up
and said:
“ ‘Hey, mister, is that your girl
over there ?’ \
“ ‘Yes, I suppose so,’ said I.
“ ‘Well, tell her to go home,’ said
he. ‘Us fellers wants to go in swirn-
min’.” '
“I told the young lady of this odd
request, but she had not yet finished
her bouquet, and she said, with a
laugh, I must tell the boys she
wouldn’t look. She’d shut her eyes.
“This they were duly told. And
they considered gravely on it. Then
the spokesman returned to me and
said:
“ ‘The fellers says they dassent
tru^t her.’ ”
