Another Promise.
Washington, Nov. 29. — General
Obregon, command!™? the Carranza
troops at Nogales, Mexico, has prom-
ised Major General Funston to co-
operate with the American forces to
suppress marauding bands of Villa
soldiers who haVe been raiding into
American territory since they, were
driven out of Mexico, Mexican de-
tachments will patrol the southern
side of the boundary line and the
raiders will be trapped between two»
fires. General Funston already has
cavalry patrols along the American
side.
With no additional information as
to hi* name or from whence he cam*,
the body of the unknown man who
slept himself to death the latter part
of August In Temple, has been buried
ni an unmarked grave In the city
cemetery. During the time the corpse
was held in' a local undertaking es-
tablishment for three months, hun-
dreds of persons, some from morbid
curiosity, others thinking they might
Identify the man, visited the under-
taking parlors. The body was care-
fully eihbalmed and would have been
preserved indefinitely.
The body oi a one-legged man,
dressed shabbily but clean shaven,
was found near the Santa Fe passen-
ger station the latter part of August.
He^ was sleeping peacefully in the
street but showed signs that he would
not live long unless nourishment was
given him. He was aroused from
the stupor under which he slept and
carried to a nearby hotel where he re-
mained 80 hours, sleeping soundly and
unable to be awakened. A glass of
milk was the only nourishment which
could be given him by the city health
physician who waited upon him. He
died sleeping,_hls name unknown to
the police or the health department.
His body was embalmed carefully
with the Intention qt preserving It
until some Information could be gath-
ered as to his name or relatives. Al-
though a letter which was found in
his pockets led to a number of mes-
sages being sent to Georgia towns, no
replies ever came.
The nearest any one ever came to
identifying the stranger was when a
tramp who was passing the under-
taking parlors In which the body was
being kept, was asked by one of the
embalmers who happened to be stand-
ing in the door, whether he .wanted to
see a "friend." The man was carried
back to the body and declared that he
actually knew the person, having ut
one time roomed with him in El Paso
and begged for a living on the streets
of the western city. His name he did
not know. The body at the time of
its burial was as natural as it was at
the time It was embalmed on the day
the stranger slept himself Into the
other world. Embalmers declare that
the corpse would have been preserved
Indefinitely.

J.O.SUE&CO.
Successors to the Texas Store.
Work in all probability will start
this week on the installation of an
electric fire alarm system In Temple.
Word has been received by Chief Tom
Wright of the department that a rep-
resentative of the Gamewall Fire
Alarm Co., successful bidders for the
contract to Install the system, will
arrive this week to begin work.
All the apparatus for the alarm
system, including all wires, boxes and
switchboard, arrived several weeks
ago and have been awaiting the Ar-
rival of the electrician of the com-
pany. Because of a previous contract
in another town his work in Temple
has been delayed several deys.
Included In the alarm system Is the
stringing of approximately fifteen
miles of wire, throughout the business
section of the city and to the pump
station. In the greater part of the
residential section of the city Imagi-
nary telephone boxes will be installed,
each telephone in the neighborhood
being used as a fire alarm box. How-
ever, every block will be numbered so
that the operator in the exchange at
the central station may announce by
a system of electrical devices and
gongs to the four stations the location
of the fire by block number. The spe-
cial fire proof room In whi'h will be
installed the switchboard and in
which an operator will be kept on the
job day and night to answer fire calls,
was erected a few weeks ago by the
department, just west of the Central
station, adjoining the main 1 uilding.
SECREATRY OF TREASURY, HOW-
EVER, INDICATES MAY LEC-
TURE ON LATER DATE.
Hon. W. G. McAdoo. secretary of
the treasury of President Wilson's
cabinet, will not be able to-Visit Tem-
ple during the month of December,
according to a letter just received by
President George Houghton of the
Chamber of Commerce. However,
Mr. McAdoo Indicated that he may
find It convenient for him to address
the Temple commercial organization
during the early part of the coming
year.
A letter received yesterday from
Governor Ferguson stated that that
official of the state had written Mr.
McAdoo, urging him to take advan-
tage of the invitation to visit Temple
and lecture here. It is probable that
the letter will have Influence when
the secretary finds it convenient to
continue his lectures In the west.
During the past few months, Mr. Mc-
Adoo has made a number of ad-
dresses in California and other states
of the union before chambers of com-
merce, using for his subject material
gathered from President Wilson's
policy of national preparedness.

May Operate Exchange in Summer.
The Temple cotton exchange may
run the year round. Upon the return
of Win. J. Light, manager of the ex-
change, who is now in New Orleans,
it is probable that definite under-
standing will be reached as to whether
it will be profitable to continue the
service through the summer months.
Mr. Light went to New Orleans last
Wednesday to consult with the cot-
ton exchange officials of that city and
to visit for a few days In the Ixiuisi-
ana city. He Is due to return to Tem-
ple today.
It is understood that a large num-
ber of people interested in the mar-
kets want the service continued
throughout the entire year, summer
and winter months alike. Because of
this request an effort will bo made
to perpetuate the exchange through
the months in which the exchange
closed for vacations in former years.

Better Prices in Sight
By some mysterious method of calculation, the
recent evidences of a short cotton crop have been met
with Decreases in Prices. Cotton ought to have gone
to Fifteen cents, according to the production.
It is hard to comprehend, but some day. looking
back over the "hind sights" the reason will appear.
We suggest that it will be discovered that Somebody
is getting his fingers burnt right now, and that the
market is getting away from the evil influence is
indicated.
We look for rising prices with the break-up of
whatever combination is in control. If you want to
hold your cotton, come to us for Cash Advances, or
Loans on cotton security.
