A Lone Apache Scout's Search for Kin in Texas

A Eagle Pass note tells of a middle aged man in buckskin who claims Apaches were his kin. Born in Yon county in 1866, he lived with Apaches for decades, served as a scout, and now seeks his people near Corpus or 100 miles west of there. He travels seeking papers from Fort Sill and corporate liberty.

Future nitrates and the rise of aeroplane risks

The editorial discusses growing nitrate demand due to nitrogen needs for fertilizer as fields tire and nitrates become scarce in Texas and Mexico. It shifts to a prophecy: airplanes will outpace foot travel, riskier airs, falling wreckage, and a surge in insurance agents, with satirical tone about aeroplane insurance for families. Local notes report Nolan county road bond petition for 300000 dollars and road work funding through a 20 cent tax, to be repaid in 40 years.
