other place can more plainly show
the surgcs of the waves of time. In
the centre of the main plaza is n
monument erected by the legislature
in honor of the soldiers who beat
back the rebels at Apache Canon, etc.,
as also those who have fallen by the
hands of savage Indians in the terri
tory. The military reservation COM
prises the best part of the city from
the plaza north. The splendid band
of the post plays in the plaza every
other evening. They have eighteen
members and are supplied with silver
Instruments. Every nationality is
represented Oh the streets. Even at
the hotels American, French, Mexi-
can and negro walters are about the
same tables. The dealers carry i'm
mense stocks of goods. The Pueblo
Indians bring in now, in the early
part of day, native apricots for sale.
They are said to be quite Industrious
Some shops have large trade in the
ancient looking pottery they make in
every conceivable form, that of their
idols being the most saleable to tour

sell the Mexican fligree. w orkeds gold

everywhere are the most thoroughly
policcd of any town of its size-about
eight or nine thousand-in the coun-
try and in marked contrast with Las
Vegas. The climate is delightful be-
ing cooler as it is higher than Canon.

A Literary Clown,

Some years ago there died in the hos
pltal OF the Sisters of Mercy, in St.
Louis, a man of brilliant wit and noble
imagination whose life had dropped into
farce and closed in tragedy. He
had been an editorial writer on the St.
Louis Republican, the leading news
paper of the city, and had been, beside,
frequent contributor in verse and
prose to the columns of other journals.
One of his sketches had been copied by
the London Times and had received
favorable mention from that journal.
he wrote work called .sBrass and
Steel. His nom de plume was Beau
Hackett, his real name j. L. Bowman.
His misfortune was taste for liquor.
He was in state of constant intoxica-
ton. at length his delicate nervous or
ganlzation gave way. As his physical
health failed he grew eccentric. In the
autumn of 1868, he paraded the streets
IN circus procession with monkey on
his back. At night he appeared in the
circus ring, where he played the part OF
clown. The event was local sensa-
ton. He returned to the ring night
after night. Never were such Jokes
heard in a circus before. He was a
natural wit Instead of the old hack
neyed jokes of clowns, his was genuine
sparkling wit. Crowds were drawn to
the circus. They laughed immoderate-
y. They saw the pleased face of the
clown !; they did not see the haggard
face Of the man.
The farce was soon over. In few
weeks the jester was confined in the
hospital of the Sisters of Mercy. q
maniac. The curtains Of the eyelids Of
the gentle poet fell upon life in the
frenzy of delirium. His troubles were
over. In the hands Of the gentle Sis
ters OF Mercy his spirit passed away.

The Man of Glass.

A very extraordinary existence was
brought to close not long ago by the
death of man who was known as the
imam Of glass;" The records of the
asylum at Bicetre, where the man died.
show that as long ago as in 1897, when
he was Is years old, certain Jubissier
was brought to the hospital suffering
from mental alienation of severe kind.
His 1aalady had been caused by wound
inflicted by pane Of glass, which fell
on his head, and before the cut could be
healed the brain became affected by a
permanent disease. The sufferer lapsed
into idiocy, and then into madness of {.
more violent kind; and he was shortly
afterward shut up in the asylum, where
he has renamed ever SINCE After the
first transports of delirium had passed
off the man became more calm, but he
could never get rid of the idea that he
was made Of glass, and that the least
shock or blow would cause him to break
in pieces. He remained, therefore, per-
fectly quiet and silent, b4ing afraid even
to speak, for fear of prec1pitating the
catastrophe which he fancied was ever
impending. For So long years he has
led this singular existence, only once
opening his lips to speech, when he
asked for little tobacco. At one other
period his intellectual and physical fac
ulties appeared to be aroused, and that
was when, during the siege of Paris, he
could hear the shells bursting in the air
at no great distance from his place Of
retreat. At this time he was seen to
grow nervous and less letharg1c, and to
walk about restlessly, humming some
words which had nointeligible sequence
or meaning. He survived, however,
and, relapsing into his usual condition,
has SO lived until the age of lO3, testify
ing, in e somewhat striking way, to the
effects of a totally placid and inactive
tranquility both of body and mind in
prolonging life. No little Credits, how
ever, due to the authorities at Bicetre
for having thus preserved for So years
an existence which from the first was
utterly useless and undressing. Lon

Dangers of Childhood.

Childhood is the period during which
the foundations Of the physical structure
are laid. It ends, at the age of about
ID, with the completion of the permanent
teeth. It is characterized by almost alb
solute dependence on the parents. and
therefore the responsibility rests upon
them whether the foundations of the
superstructure shall be good or bad
and, indeed, whether there shall be any
superstructure.
The fact that one-haf of all who are
born die within this period, while multi
tudes of adults find, when it is too late.
fatal defects in the very groundwork of
their constitutions, is q fearful witness
against the competency of most parents
for the care of children. What farmer
would employ a hand that let one-haf of
all his calves, colts and lambs die?
In the matter of food, if milk fails the
mother, how few mothers know what to
give the child! How few know that
many OF the compounds sold as =" in
fants' food" contain almost no food
whatever! and that cows milk, harmful
when taken alone, is generally safe with
certain proportion of lime water
How few mothers know that good wet
nurse would save almost any babe nursed
by hand, and that is nearly as certain to
die Of cholera infantum! How many
know that too-protracted nursing will
result in ''rickets?" That overlooking
all through childhood is prolific source
of disease and that, in case of most
bowel complaints, q spare diet for few
days is better than all medicine?
In our climate, where the mercury
ranges through 40 deg, and often
varies between the extremes suddenly
and violently, how little do mothers
realize the Importance of aiding nature,
with clothing and food, so that the in
ternal temperature is held steadily at
SO deg. Do you know that change of
half dozen degrees Of the internal
temperature, either way, is almost sure
death?
The great mortality of children in
summer is due mainly to heat. An
abundance of wooden clothing clone can
guard against the effects of the violent
changes in the climate of autumn. and
winter, and spring.
How few are aware that the infectious
diseases which so ravage childhood are
caused by careless exposure to the con-
tagion, or, if aware, act accordingly -

Brother Bartholomew, working time

Brother Bartholomew cared for rhyme
More than for theses Of the schools;
FOR gair or losing, for veal or woe,
dod made him poet, long ago.
At mathis he sat, the book on his knees,
And his thoughts were wandering far, I wis:
A1e Drotherhood chanted the ntanies,
WINE ne had no praying to do but this

Inc birds that sailed DER the morning sky.
At complin hour, in the chapel dim,
He went to his stall and knelt with the rest:

Would his soul nost out to the nights fair breast
And ever to him the starry host

The idle fellow cell can hold;"

Prior o. ancient Nithiswold:
Yet somehow, with dispraise content,
Signed not the culprit's Punishment
Meanwhile Bartholomew went his way,
And patiently wrote in his sunny cell;

HIS DOCKS were covered, the walls as well
He were better pious monk instead
