It is the prevailing opinion of the
general committee representing coun-
ties affected by the proposed pink boll
worm legislation “that no menace ex-
ists to the cotton interests of South-
east Texas or the South from the pink
boll worm,” and that the people of
those counties are opposed to any re-
strictive legislation by the Legislature.

The Woodmen of the World must
pay a policy of $3000 on the life of
Charles Piper, according to a decision
in the Court of Civil Appeals at San
Antonio yesterday. Piper disappeared
from his home on October 20, 1910, and
no trace of him has been found since.
At the time of his disappearance he
left home with $700 on his person. The
evidence shows that death was the
only reasonable explanation of bis con-
tinued absence, as his home life was
happy and he bore a favorable repu-
tation.
For two days the San Antonio post-
office has received no mail from the
City of Mexico, this being the first
time that the office has failed to re-
ceive mail since the revolution started
a month ago. Rumors to the effect
that bridges burned by revolutionists
had interrupted the mail service were
brought by the passenger train from
Laredo yesterday, which usually car-
ries the Mexico City mall.
