WHERE THE MULE SHINES.
Hildalgo Advance.
A mule eats more than an automobile,
but he gives better results. He will haul
you over the Encinal sand, and put you
into Alice or Hebbronville on time, or
kick your head off. You don’t have to
carry along a monkey wrench and a kit
of watchmakers’ tools to fix him every
mile or so. A good stout club is all the
tool you need. There is no danger of his
blowing up, and difficult roads only in-
spire him to greater efforts. We believe
in the mule. The automobile which Uncle
Sam intended to carry freight, etc., from
Hebbronville to Fort Ringgold had
shipped back. It could not cross the

Letter From Capt. Dean F. Tompkins
Relative to Troubles.
Father J. M. Kirwin of this city is in
receipt of a letter from Dean F. Tomp-
kins, formerly first lieutenant in the First
United States volunteers (Immunes) and
later first lieutenant in the Thirty-third
United States volunteers stationed in the
Philippines. After the
Lieut. Tompkins was
for bravery.
Later he was made
of the province of San Juan de Leiran
and after the removal of military rule
from that province he was made treas-
urer of the province. According to cable
dispatches received in this country about
six months ago he was placed under ar-
rest for embezzlement from the
States government. He
martialed and sentenced
servitude in the military
liped, Philippine islands.-
He now writes Father I
excuse his conduct in any way, but ask-
ing that his old chaplaifi acquaint the of-
ficers and men of his ’former regiment,
the First, that he denies '-the. charges
made against him. He says that he tech-
nically did wrong, but ithat R&'feels per-
fectly innocent himself and has taken
steps to prove this to the world at large.
His case has been appealed a!nd the best
lawyers available secdWd fb make an
endeavor to clear his name. He asks for
help in no way, the only thing that he
wants being that his old comrades will be
informed of the true state of affairs that
they may not think him worse than he is.
Father Kirwin states that while in his
regiment Capt. Tompkins bore an excel-
lent reputation as an officer and a
gentleman. He thinks that it is a good
sign that the man wants the good will of
his friends and resents such an imputa-
tion against his name as has been made.

Washington, D. C., March 1.—A cable-
gram from Cuba announces that Hon. R.
Bk Hawley, national Republican, commit-
teeman from Texas, will be here within
the next few days. Mr. Hawley is a very
busy man; he controls extensive sugar
Interests in the neighboring republic and
his coming, to Washington at this time
suggests that something out of the or-
dinary is going to happen. It Is known
among his friends that he and Hon. Cecil
A. I,yon. Republican chairman of Texas,
are not in harmony regarding the way
in which organization matters are now
being conducted in the Lone Star state,
and the supposition is that he is coming
to “straighten things out.” It is also
known that when Mr. Lyon recently
visited this city he expressed singularly
strong views regarding Mr. Hawley, both
personally and politically; in fact, he had
himself interviewed by the Cincinnati
Enquirer and other papers, in which in-
terviews he iSvalleged to have said certain
things which call for explanation,
only has Mr. Lyon
the hanks” in some
l®.s seen fit to say
unpleasant things
presence of the Galveston man's friends.
Among other things that Mr. Lyon did
say while here was that Mr. Hawley was
ordered out of the White House by Pres-
ident Roosevelt, and the gentleman from
Sherman seemed to take pleasure in the
alleged discomfiture of the gentleman
from Galveston,
strange because
aside as national
room for Lyon, and he furnished the lat-
ter with a letter urging the Republicans
of Texas to support Lyon for that office.
It is stated that Mr. Hawley was notified
in Cuba of Mr.- Lyon’s actions and state-
ments while here, and that he is now on
his wayto Washington, and probably to
Texas as well, to call Mr.
count for what has taken
also reported that Mr. E.
will be asked to enter the
tional committeeman, in
is said Hawley will throw
his favor—in other words,
here that the man from
do everything he can to defeat the man
from Sherman. There is apparently a big
fight on between the Republican leaders,
and nobody need be surprised if Hon. E.
H. R. Green should be forced into the
race for national committeeman. It is
further reported that the , president is
anxious to see Green at
Texas Republican forces
recently made overtures to that end.
