come, In which he made many good
and strong points for the new or-
ganization. Mr. Campbell stated that
iu the development and upbuilding of
the great stale ot Texas, the banks
aud the real eltate men should be,

to the banker, jnd the hanker was
indispensible to the real estate men
.(laughter and applause.)
Mr. Campbell finished with a hear-
ty assurance that the city was wide

(Loud applause.) .

After thjs order of business, the

State Realty association, author, poet

pirsonator, comedian and all-round

the entire hall nurljig their recital

the Houston delegation announced
that the services of their superb

BOOSTER SONG, TEXAS REALTY
ASSOCIATION, TEMPLE,
TEXAS, JULY 10-11,
• 1911.
(Tune "Old Lang Syne ")
This Is a *rand reunion fest to Boost
Old Texas State,
The uncrowned queen of the South-
west and matchless Real Estate
And here in Temple, up-to-date, O let
us all rejoice
Alld shout the Lone Star praises in
one great united voice.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
After a rousing rendition of Spen-
cer's convention song, pirtlcipated
in by the band and about fifty voices,
the convention was called to order by
President Street, and the chairman
of the credentials committee made
his report, and a roll of the regular
delegates was called.
The resolutions committee, in ses-
sion dowmstsirs, at this juncture sent
up three resolutions for the action
of the convention, the principal one
being to the effect that the state
president be empowered and author-
ized to appoint a field secretary to
promote the organization of ex-
changes in unorganized towns. This
resolution called for a lively and
some#hat lengthy discussion, the
contention being made that the asso-
ciation had no fuuds available for
such a campaign. Another resolu-
tion was then read calling for vol-
untary subscriptions to create a fund
for the purpose, It being considered
unadv isable to Increase the dues of
the young organization at this time.
In support of this resolution Mr.
u i Conroy of San Antonio secured the
floor, and after a rousing exhort*
hospitable spirit of the south, and
the progressive, boosting spirit of
grand old Texas. You are broad and
liberal, two of the chief est virtues.
The knocker has no place in Texas,
or should have none. As citizens
of Texas all our interests are iden-
tical, whether we come from San
Antonio. Houston or live in Temple.
Great old Texas is big enough and
bountiful enough for us all. That
same beautiful moon sheds tonight a
flood of mellow light over a vast and
mighty empire of territory, all en-
compassed within the boundaries of
groat and grand old Texas." (Loud
applause).
Mr. Conroy was followed by Dr.
Cbante of Houston, who entertained
the crowd for several minutes with
some of his humorous experiences In
western Texas.
Father Heckman and Captain
John J Cox each made short talks,
humorous and otherwise, and the jol-
ly event was concluded just after 10
o'clock by the Houston band and
quartette.
Ample car accommodation was fur-
nished to bring all the crowd back
to town at once.
At a late hour last night some of
the younger and jollier spirits were
still "celebrating'' the delightful,
cool roof garden of the Martin hotel
furnishing a happy retreat after the
strenuoslties of the day and even-
ing.

tion (old fashioned campmeMing
style)^ he opened the ball for volun-
tary subscriptions, and within a few
moments fifteen hundred dollars had
been pledged by the members pres-
ent. Secretary Woodall of the Tem-
ple Commercial club made a strong
fifteen minutes talk on the subject
of financing the organization. Mr.
Woodall told the members of the new
organization that the quicker they
catae to a realization of the fact that
they could accomplish but little or
nothing without funds the better
progress they would make. He cited
them to the fact that the Texas Com-
mercial Secretaries' association had
recently raised a fund of $24,000
for general purposes. He stated that
he believed the organization of Texas
real estate men could accomplish us
much or .more than his organization
if they would go about It In the
right way, but that they could ac-
complish nothing without money. He
suggested different plans by whlcn
this money might be raised. He as-
serted that he desired to see the
Texas Realty association prosper,
that there was no antagonism be-
tween them and the Commercial sec-
retaries' organization, on the con-
trary their interests and aims were
entirely mutual, that of promoting
and developing the great and glori-
ous state of Texas. Mr. Woodall's
speech was well received and round-
ly applauded.
Dr. LeMay of Houston also made
a strong speech In favor of the res-
olution, in which he told of the or-
ganization work he bad done for the
association, and laid before the con-
vention many good plans of proce-
dure in this important work.
After this the resolution to appoint
a field secretary was unanimously
adopted.
At this juncture Mr. T. Garland
Brown of the local entertainment I
committee announced that It was | (Delivereb

ton and Midway, and a hurried mo-
tion to adjourn prevailed.
Before leaving the park, all the

THE EVENING PROGRAM
Ample car service, of big, roomy,
comfortable summer cars, was fur-
nished by the traction company, and
more than half the visitors left on a
5 o'clock special for Belton, and re-
turning met the balance of the
bunch at Midway park, where the
local entertainment committee had
prepared a bountiful spread of Juicy
hot barbecue and other good things,
topped off with several wagon loads
of Iced melons. Iced tea and coffee
were the beverages, thank you—
nothing more.
The program at the park was In-
formal, Jolly and happy. Both the
local band and the famous Herb
Lewis band from Houston furnished
inspiring music, which, beautiful
anywhere, sounded at Its best out
under the stars and the trees. The
Houston quartette, led by Lloyd
Spencer (of San Antonio) rendered
the Convention Booster Song (com-
posed for the occasion by Mr.
Spencer).
Father .P. A. Heckman acted as
master of ceremonies, and many
speakers responded to calls. Includ-
ing Mr. Spencer, the prince of en-
tertainers. who discussed the real
estate business both seriously and hu-
morously, and finally, after protest-
ing that he had already done most
of the talking during the day and
night,v was prevailed upon to give
one of his famously funny Chinese
dialect stories, which set the big
audience in a roar of laughter.
Mr. Spencer was followed by Mr.
T. L. Conroy, also of San Antonio,
in one of the best talks of the oc-
casion. Mr. Conroy paid a glowing
tribute to Temple, as. In fact, all of
the visitors have done, both on the
platform and off. The speaker said
In part: "Certainly the city of
Temple Is properly named. She Is a
temple of bright. Intelligent men and
beautiful women; she Is a temple of
happy homes; she Is a temple of
progressive business men; she Is a
tenifle of beautiful walks and streets,
parks and trees; she Is a temple of
substantial business men and Insti-
tution!. You have the chivalrous.
SOME CONVENTION POSTSCRIPTS.
A delegate sitting near the report-
ers' table in the convention hall yes-
terday afternoon asked the Telegram
penril pusher if he "represented same
Temple paper or one of the large
dailies." Oh, well, he hadn't seen
The Telegram.
Houston brought a band, all right,
and a humdinger, too, but they have
nothing on San Antonio in the en-
tertainment line, when you remem-
ber her vaudeville team, Messrs.
Spencer and Conroy.
The visiting' delegates were loud
In their praise of many things in
Temple, in fact the city as a whole,
but the new Martin hotel, with its
city airs, beauty, excellent service
and congenial manager, came in for
a large share of justly merited praise
The songs and music and stories
and speeches at Midway park last
night made up a happy and Jolly oc
casion, the brightness of the event
being marred or clouded only by a
very distressing report of a new and
peculiar crop pest described by Joe
Chllders, as seriously damaging the
cotton crop in the extreme south-
western part of the state near his
big ranch. Charlie Campbell and
Mr. Chllders became so absorbed in
the discussion of the peculiarities of
the new insect, and its manner of
operating upon the cotton plant and
boll that they missed a large part of
the otherwise enjoyable program of
the evening.
Address of State
President H. P. Street
at the opening: session
yesterday morning.)
(By Associated Pi<•««)
Washington, July 10.—Drouth ais
played havoc with crop conditions
during the last month, accprdin£ tJ I
Professor N. C. Murray, acting chief
of the crop rei>orting board of the de-
partment of agriculture, which board
today issued a July report on grain
and produce. "Most of the import-
ant crops show condition at preseut
which indicates a yield below that if
last year and below recent average
yields of production," said Murray.
"Feed stuff, oats and hay seem the
hardest hit," he said. "Less than
two-thirds of a normal crop of hay
is expected and the oats crop prob-
ably will be more than 25 per cent
less than last year s crop and about
12 per cent less than the average ijr
the last five years
"The corn acreage is the largest
ever recorded, but the condition of
the crop is about 7 per cent below
the average. That indicates approx-
imately 5 per cent less than last
year's record crop, but nearly 5 per
cent more than the average produc-
tion during the last five years. Tho
potato crop promises to be unusually
short. The acreage has fallen off
and the condition of the crop on
July 1 was lower than at any time
In the last twenty-two years.
"Notwithstanding the drouth, the
wheat crop, both spring and winter,
will be well up to an average in total
productions."

PRESIDENT INVOLVED
Senator Railey Offered an Amend-
ment Relating- to Woolen
Schedules.
Ladies and Real Estate men of
Texas, It Is indeed a pleasure in call-
ing this Convention to order to soe so
many of our representative fiirms
here. Before answering the kind
words of the honorable gentleman,
who has Just so eloquently and ably
welcomed us, I think it well tihat I
should make some Kind of jin ex-
planation of the fact that I am your
temporary President. And to apolog-
ize for the Nomination Committee.
As is known to all those who were
present at San Antonio, we had a
Committee on Nominations. After
the Convention I went to a member
of that Committee and asked him how
and why they nominated me for Presi-
dent. He answered me by telling me
the following story: Sai'J he "One
of our very prominent real estate
men sold to another real estate man
a very fine looking, high stepping and
apparently sound horse. The next
morning the gioom of the purchaser
Informed him that the horse which he
so highly praised the nightv before
was totally blind. He at once sought
out the seller, his friend, and said to
him "LOok here BUI, that fine look-
ing horse which you sold me Is blind."
The seller replied "Yes I knew that
but I thought It was a secret, the fel-
low who sold it to me did not tell
me."
The fact that we are here today Is
proof enough that we believe in this
organization and we all realize that
organisation is now a question of ad- j
visability but is on* of necessity. -We
have all read the story of the father
who called his sons together and
showed them how easy it was to break
all of the sticks which he gave them
separately, but how very hard when
they were b.ounil together. Such Is
the valtte of organization.
When we accepted the kind tn-
vltatien of this live City; to b« their
guesfs. we bad all heard of their en-
terprise. their Railroad interests and
their Commercial Club. Tjfowever, J
we did not know that this City had
o*e of the livest real estate Exchanges
la the United States. I want to take
my hat off to this Temple Real Estate
Exchange, for she was the first one
in the State to-put up her money to
the State Association and the only one
which has paid for more members
than they pledged at San Antonio. 1

(By Associated Press)
Washington, July 10.—The Cana-
dian reciprocity bill emerged unscath-
ed tonight from the most serious or-
deal it has yet experienced in tie sen-
ate.
The series of amendmnts offered by
Senators Cummins of Iowa and Sim-
mons of North Carolina, all seeking to
increase the number of Canadian
manufactured articles that shall be
admitted into this country free of
duty, were voted down by large ma-
jorities.
The defeat of the amendments
clears the situation in the senate and
leaves the reciprocity bill much near-
er final passage.
Senator Bailey offered an amend-
ment to the house woolen tariff bill,
Imposing a 25 per cent duty on raw
wool. He will ask for consideration
of this amendment and of his farm-
ers' free list amendment in the near
future.

Powder Explosion
Blamed for Short
Spring Chicken Crop
Chicago, July 10.—Spring chickens
are a scarce article of food iu Chi-
cago.
When the country for flftyi miles or
more around Pleasant Prairie, Wis.,
was shaken last March by an explosion
in a powder mill, the blast played
havoc with setting hens and Incuba-
tors. The explosion was mistaken by
many for an eartnquake when It was
felt. A few Jiouscs were blown down
and thousauds of windows were bro-
ken.
About 90 per centj of the spring
chicken crop went up with the powder
explosion, commission men say. The
eggs were shaken and the young chick-
ens were either killed outright and
failed to hatch, or they were hatched
deformed. Some were hatched out
minus a leg, others with twisted necks
and some with only portions of wings.

Men Try to Divide
Keg of Powder; one
Killed; One Dying
(By Associated Press)
Pittsburg. July 10.—In their effort*
to divide a keg of powder In a fair
and square maimer, Vendrlng Goollsh
was blown to atmos and John Seme-
nlch is d.Wng of terrible burns in
local hospital.
The men were friends and worked
together as miners near Greeusburg,
Pa. Yesterday they were dividing
keg of powder. They knew but one
way to make a fair measurement.
Placing the keg on a table, the men
stood before it. Goollsh took out
handful and placed on the table be'
side him. Semenlch did the same. The
tedious process continued until one
handful remained. At a loss how to
divide It, It was finally decided to set
It off. Unthinkingly, Ooolish touched
a match to it. There was a puff and
the two large piles oi powder had ev
pToded. Goolish was blown through
the roof and killed, while Semenlch
was probably fatally burned.
