“Section 20. Indemnity Bond—It shall be the duty of
every person granted a license to operate a motor vehicle
under this ordinance to obtain an Indemnity Bond in some
surety or bonding company authorized to do business in
the State of Texas, and file the same with the City Clerk,
in at least the sum of $5000 for each car operated by him,
provided the same can be obtained by him at a premium
of $75 or less per five thousand; provided, however, in-
stead of the separate bond on each vehicle one general
bond for the sum of twenty-thousand dollars may be ob-
tained when five or less vehicles are operated, and when
more than five vehicles are operated one general bond in
the sum of twenty thousand dollars, plus an additional
sum of $1000 for each and every vehicle operated over
five, provided said general bond can be obtained at the
premium per five thousand specified above, but if said
general bond can not be obtained and a bond in the sum
of five thousand dollars for each vehicle can be obtained
at the premium mentioned above; then, in such event a
a separate bond shall be obtained by him for each vehicle.”
You will note that no bond is required by the Jitney owner un-
less he can procure it for $75 per ear.

No Insurance Company will make the bond for $75.
Were you advised that the proposed ordinance in effect ex-
empt the Jitney from giving any proper Indemnity Bond?

Modern methods were used in the
transportation of an ancient beverage

to Austin. The beer—a solid carload
of it—arrived yesterday and was re-

Co., of Ia Crosse. The shipment con-
sisted of 125 casks. In each of which
were 120 bottles of beer.
In the days of old. when warriors
wore Iron evening suits, a beverage
much like this "Old Style Lager" was
brewed in Germany. Not only the
laity, but also the clergy of that time
drank it. The purity of the beer made
it a favorite beverage for all classes,
and the “Old Style Lagr" is said to
be practically the same beer as that
brewed of old by the monks for

WACO, Texas, Feb. 10.—Belvidere
Brooks was a native Texan and he
became a t©’egraph operator while liv-
ing at Bremond. He was manager of
the Western Union office here, and in
1884 he went to El Paso, where he was
also manager From El Paso he went
to Galveston tGaccept the management <
of the Western Union office in that
city, and from Galveston he was trans-
ferred to Denver, where he was man-
ager and superintendent of the Rocky
Mountain division of the Western
Union. He went to New York from
Denver and was made general manager
for the company, being vice president
at the 'time of his death. His wife,
who died in July. 1913, was a daughter
of the Jate Judge G. B. Gerald of
Waco.
This is to certify that I, Jerome H.
McCormack. of SIT Ivy Street, Johnson
City, Tenn., suffered from Congestion
of the Kidneys, so that at times I was
obliged to move about the house with
the aid of a chair and unable to work
until I used three bottles of your
Swamp-Root. I keep Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root in my house at all times,
as I know from experience that it is
the best Kidney medicine I can use.

Varsity’s biggest game of the basket-
bsll season will be staged tomorrow
afternoon at 4 o’clock on Clark Field
when she meets the powerful five of
Rice Institute.
The Owls enjoy an undefeated sea-
son so far, and have decisively de-
feated all of their opponents. They
defeated Southwestern 40 to 1, and
beat Ray lor a short time before by a
larger score than did the Longhorns.
"I look for this to be the hardest
game of the season." Coach Hendersg
of the Varisty team said this mor-
ing. “There are a number of new ptNa >
which we have not yet been forced (V "
use, and I am confident that we will
defeat them."
Coach Henderson deserves all of the
credit for the great showing made by
the Longhorns this season, for every
play which they have used was orgi-
noted by him.

the Y. M. C. A. at Houston, will ac-

"Where Is Bob Allen? We know.
Fresh president will lead the dance
Friday night." Cards bearing this in-
scription on green cardboard were dis-
tributed on the campus this morning
by freshman wearing insinuating
smiles.
It is their reply to ths time-honored
custom of the Sophs capturing their
president on the eve of the annual
freshman reception. Only this year the
Hops were more avid than usual and
kidnaped the fresh leader, Bob Allen of
Dallas Wednesday night and spirited
him away to some unknown place. The
dance is scheduled for Friday night
at the Knights of Columbus Hall.
Allen was seen last by his intimates
about 7 o’clock yesterday evening. The
only news that has been received of
him was an envelop containing his
jewelry, which was mysteriously sent
to one of his friends at a store near
the University.
All sorts of rumors are current as
to th© whereabouts of nllen, and de-
spite the confidence of freshmen this
morning, it is not at all improbable that
th© boy leader will be unable to lead
tomorrow night.
It will be remembered that last year
about a half dozen students were sus-
pended from the Varsity for partici-
pating in the krdnaplag of Winchester
Kelso, last year’s freshman president,
and it is believed that the faculty will
be even more severe this year if the
identity of the kidnapers is discov-
ered.

Mr. Brooks had been in the service
of the Western Union more than forty
