fault is their own. A gf-rm at 11»* root
soon plays havoc with the most luxur-

fall out. A remedy i'or tills has recently
been discovered, railed Nowbrn's Herpi-

that does the damage, besides removing
all impurities from the sealp. In addi-

LEGISLATORS INVITED
TO VISIT THE CAMP
Special T leg ram to The Exrress.
CAMP MABRY, Tex., July 20.—Sunday
wis spent quietly at the military ma-
neuver camp, although there were a great
many visitors. The visitors were much
pleased and impressed with the camp
and its arrangement. T
tion of the visitors were
tin, who came out to <
diers. Many of them
ped with the troops and
enjoying the camp fare,
some and well-cooked.
The officers' and civilian clerks' mess
is not well organized. No provision has
been made to feed the visiting press cor-
respondents who, though willing to pay,
have been left to go hungry, but have
not complained. It is expected they will
be hospitably treated when the State
troops come into camp and establish
messes.
Then was much interest manifested
today in the religious services, and three
chaplains present, all uniting in giving
the soldiers and visitors good devotional
excrcises. Chaplain Dickson, who was
the fiist to appear, and who marched in
on foot with the Twenty-sixth Infantry,
was also the first to make arrangements
for pitching the mammoth tent furnished
for devotional services where all ot" the
chaplains will officiat
merit, arrived at Camp Mabry today for
duty.
("apt. S. J. Flcmming. quartermaster's

ters.

Chaplain Dickson is also getting his
photography apparatus in order, and to-
morrow expeets to make pictures ot
troops and animals while in rapid mo-
tion. He is equipped with the latest thing
in photography, the "Graplex" camera.
With it he can make a photo in the
thousandth part of a second.
More Than
Five Thousand Troops.
There will 1 e a lull in camp life until
the troops of the National Guard of
Arizona. Louisiana, New Mexico and
Texas begin t<> arrive. It will then con-
tain more than five thousand soldiers.
This is the greatest number of troops in
T« xas sin e Gen. Zaehary Taylor marched .
from Texas into .Mexico. The number |
exceeds those gathered on Texas soil
;it any particular time during ••ither the
Civil War of the '60s of tlie past century
or i hi' recent Spanish-American conflict,
although, to both of these wars Texas
contributed a greater number of troops
than will concentrate at Camp Mabry.
The Quartermasters of both the regular
anil the Guard service will have to cope
with some propositions that Will put them
on their mettle. They will not only have
to handle more than one thousand car-
loads of food, forage and other supplies
and equipments, but many trainloads of
troops and animals, besides looking after
the general wagon and ambulance serv-
ice
Thus far the Quartermasters of the
regular army have not had much to do
and have kept the supplies of food, bed-
ding, etc., stacked up in the store rooms
at the grounds. The State Quartermas-
ters have kept theirs until now in the
Capitol building, and will not. in all like-
lihood. have it at the grounds of the en-
campment until the Guardsmen begin to
arrive. Colonel Devine, Quartermaster
of th«- Guard, says the State's tcntage
supply will likelv be insufficient for the
great number of Guardsmen expected to
participate. In that event the soldiers
will bf looked out for before the officers.
The latter are expected to provide them-
selves with everything that the State
does not choose or is unable to furnish.
Most of the officers do SO, but many are
unable. The Legislature heretofore has
not shown the proper appreciation or made
anything like n<hquate provision for the
maintenance of her militia. The officers
of the Guard are unanimous in expressing
the hope that all members of the next
Texas Legislature will visit the present
encampment. If then- do so they will
here learn, and it is hoped, appreciate
the needs of this branch of the State's
machinery. It is also hoped they will
materially add to the appropriations the
I'nited States makes for the maintenance
of the National Guard, in this State.
The afternoon was unusually pleasant
for both visitors and soldiers, as all dust
on the parade grounds had been laid by
tlie heavy rainfall which occurred this
morning, commencing at about I o'clock
and lasting until about 8 o'clock. This
rain had been threatening for several
days and was greatly needed, as the heat
and dust has been very disagreeable.
Reconnoissance
This Morning
The first technical exercise was issued
this afternoon and will he solved tomor-
row morning, all companies being repre-
sented. It calls for a reconnoissance of
all arms tomorrow morning and the gen-
I eral situation, according to the problem,
is that a Brown Army is concentrating
at San Antonio, Tex. A Blue Armv is
advancing from Marble Falls, a point on
the Colorado River, about forty-five
miles northwest of Austin, Tex. In re-
gard to the. special situation of the
Brown Army at the beginning of the
maneuver tomorrow morning, the follow-
ing information was issued:
"The Brown commander had detached
n brigade, composed of the First i'nited
States Cavalry (ten troops), First Squad-
ron. Fifth Cavalry, Sixth Battery Field
Artillery, Fifteenth Battery Field Artil-
lery. Twenty-sixth I'nited States In-
fantry, one-half Company D Signal
Corps and Field Hospital No. I. with
orders to take station near Austin and
reeonnoiter that \fcinity for information
as to the Blues and oppose the further
advance of that force to the south. Thin
brigade has gone into camp near Aus-
tin."
This problem will be solved tomorrow
morning by a maneuver, but th > decision
of the umpires will not be learned until
tomorrow afternoon.
The Fifteenth and Sixth Batteries of
Field Artillery are still occupying their
"dog tents," as the small service tents
are termed, owing to the non-arrival of
their tents from Fort Sam Houston. It
is ik»1 known what occasioned the delay,
but it is understood that the 'ents have
not yet been shipped from San Antonio.
These batteries will probably be fur-
nished with the tents of the Twenty-
fifth Infantry, which was to have at-
tended the maneuvers, but later received
other orders, if this is the case.
Equipment
Has Been Delayed.
Part of the delayed equipment of the
detachment of the Signal Corps arrived
I here this morning. A large amount of
this equipment is still on the toad, al-
though it is expect -d to arrive at any
time. Fpon the arrival of the equipment
the Signal Corps commenced th-' work of
installing the camp telephone system.
Second Lieut. 10. C. Hanford, First
Cavalry, arrived here today and reported
for duty. Mr Hanford has been for the
past three months engaged in preparing
a progressive military map in ihe vicin-
ity of Brownsville Tex.

REPORTED IMMINENT
NEW ORLEANS, La., July 21.—Re-
ports from Picayune correspondents in
Louisiana and Mississippi on weather
and crop conditions for the week ending
Saturday, July 2S, lend encouragement to
tho cotton planter, although a few sec-
tions still complain of too much mois-
ture.
It is feared that an abnormal growth
of the plant, followed by deterioration of
the fruit, would result, if the present ex-
cessive rainfall in a considerable area of
the section continues. Should a drouth
of three or four weeks succeed the pres-
ent rainy period, the indications are that
the plant would sh-d almost everything
exce pt the' full grown bolls.
Considering that most sections have
experienced almost a continuous rain
| for the last four weeks and that not-
withstanding this condition cotton has
shown no great damage, * verytUing
points to a fair yield.
COTTON IN CENTRAL BELT.
Memphis Commercial Appeal's Weekly
Summary Is Generally
Favorable.
MEMPHIS. Tenn., July 29.—The follow-
ing is the Commercial Appeal's cotton
crop summary covering the central belt:
Showers have fallen over a wide area
during the week, but in the interim the
sun has shone out bright Jind clear, and,
except in a few bottom sections, cultiva-
tion has been pursued and is no .v almost
completed. Some listricts, where the
rain has been abnormally heavy, have
abandoned any further e ffort at cultiva-
tion, and here the condition of the crop
is ne.it so good. Elsewhere the reports
are indeed flattering.
Plenty of rain, with favorable temper-
atures, antedated by excellent cultiva-
tion, has. needless to say. induced a very
rapid growth, and for this reason some
correspondents have been led to tear
that an excessive growth at the enpense
of fruit was being made, but by fai the
majority, while noting the growth, state-
also that the plant is fruiting in a. most
satisfactory manner.
Reports from the northern half of Ala-
bama have improved wonderfully. The
week's weather there was mosUv bright
and warm and the plant has made won-
derful progress. Reports from Arkansas
are most excellent and Mississippi news
is only spotted here and there by un-
favorable reports from the lowlands af-
fected by excess of moisture. West Ten-
nessee crops are excellent.

SPRUNG BY PRIMARY
Daily Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., July 20.—The result of
the Democratic primaries yesterday con-
tains some distinct surprises to many
men who claim to be well up in political
methods and who have posed as wise-
acres in forecasting the vote.
The wonderful strength which O. B.
Colquitt developed at the polls for Gov-
ernor was entirely unexpected by the
other candidates for that office and
their chief supporters. It is said, how-
ever, that Mr. Colquitt and his man-
agers have' been confident for the last
ten days that he would be close to first
place. His augmented following during
the last two weeks of the campaign
amounted almost to a landslide. He
proved himself an adept in conducting
his campaign.
Reached the
Individual Voter.
He started out on the principle that
an effective campaign can only be made
by reaching the individual voter. He
1 as done this. It is stated at the Austin
postoffice that 400,000 pieces of mail,
i ach sent to a separate address, were
mailed from Cohjuitt headquarters here
during the campaign. Every poll tax
j ayer in the State- receive el Mr. Colquitt's
literature. His literature was prepared
in an attractive and taking form, and
it doubtless captured thousands of voters.
No other candidate attempted to reach
the individual voter in the way that Mr.
Colquitt did.
In addition to the hard and well di-
rected work of his men at campaign
headquarters Mr. Colquitt proved him-
m If an aggressive campaigner upon the
stump. He set a new pace for cam-
paigning for Governor in Texas.
Slow-going methods will have to be
relegated te) the rear hereafter if the
T« rrell election law remains as it now
is. The man who can reach the most
voters by circ ular letters; the man who
can prepare his campfiign literature in
a shape that will cause it te» be read,
anel the man who can ride night and day
and make speeches at every stop, and
who has a big fund of money with which
to pay for all these legitimate expenses
will stand the best .show of receiving a
1 lg vote In the primaries.
Up to the
Convention.
With the result of the primaries pret-
t\ well settled the interest now cen-
ters iti whe* will receive the- nomination
at the hands of the convention. The
friends of Col. Tom Campbell claim that
he is assured of the nomination, but they
(lo not at this time attempt to explain
whi re he is going to get the vote on
second ballot to bring that result about.
The Bedl and Brooks men stand well
together.
The opponents of Coleiuitt say that he
will go into the convention with his full
strength doveloperl, and that oil the sec-
end ballot not a vote will go to him.
Theiy say that there is no show what-
ever for his nomination. Mr. Colquitt's
supporters, however, think differently.
They are feeling good over the pros-
pects of their candidate.
There will be some of the biggest wire-
pulling done in the different counties
between now and next Saturday, when
the county conventions will be held to
elect delegates to the' State convention,
that was ever done in a political cam-
paign in this State. Eae*h candidate will
make desperate efforts te» have dele-
gates selected who will favor him for
second choic .
Votes Will Not
Go to Colquitt.
If Bell or Brooks go into the con-
vention as the- fourth man in the race
their vote will not go te> Colquitt. That
tact is pretty certain. It is possible that
Brooks or Bell may be second when
the* second ballot is cast in convention.
Tlu- contest for Governor has not been
se 11 led by the primaries by any means.
There is much satisfaction felt here
over the news that Judge L. J. Storey
has been re -nominated for Railroad Com-
missioner by a gewd majority.
The nomination of Sam Sparks fr>r
Treasurer is also very pleasing to his
many friends here.
In the local campaign here chief in-
terest is taken in the defeat of District
Attorney Warren W. Moore.' by Judge
James Hamilton.

MAYOR CONSOLED IN
THE DEFEAT OF HYAN
The def-eat of Gus A. Mauermann for
Sheriff by John W. Tobin is a matter
much regretted by all those interested
in building up the City Hall machine,
for the' ed'fiee of Sheriff affords the
best opportunity e>f any in the county
for making political friends. The Sher-
iffs offic e-, is always of vital importance
lo lawyers who want civil papers served
promptly.
Three out Of seven of the candidates
Mayor Oallaghan supported are elected
from all appearances. One of these
three, Andres Coy, met little opposition
from tin Court House organization, and
many of those opposed to the Mayor

"My only regret is that Mauermann
lost," said the Mayor. "I was much in-
ter'steel in that race, and wanted to
see my friend elected. On the whole I
am well pleased. No politician with a
great many candidates in whom he is
interested should e xpect them all to be
cb e ted."
The Mayor was particularly well
pleas el with the- victory of Phil Shook
in his i ace for County Judge. The City
Hall forces have felt a desire for re-
venge sin<e Joseph Ryan, the present
Attorney, bolted from the City camp and
entered the race in the party of Court
House candidates.
The County Judge occupies a position
among county officials very muc h like
the Mayor among city offiieals. and
with Phil Shook in office the two Gov-
ernments will b«' very close together.
