young daughter; the sturdy sons
just springing into closest compan-
ionship, claiming every day and
every day rewarding a fathers love
and care; and in his heart the ca
ger, rejoicing power to meet all de-
mands. Before him, dissolution and
great darkness! And his soul was
not shaken. His countrymen were
thrilled with instant, profound and
universal sympathy. Masterful in
his mortal weakness, be became
the center of a Nations love, en-
shrined in the prayers Of world.
But all the love and all the sympa-
thy could not share with him his
suffering With unfaltering front
he faced death. With unfailing
tenderness he took leave of life.
Above the demoniac hiss of the
assassin's bullet he heard the voice
of God. With simple resignation
he bowed to the Divine decree.
AS the end drew near, his early
craving for the sea returned The
stately mansion of power had been
to him the wearisome hospital of
pain, and he begged to be taken
from its prison walls, and its OPP
pressive, sitting air, from its home
lessness and its hopelessness. Gent
ly, silently, the love of a great peo-
pie bore the pale sufferer to the
longed-for healing of the sea, to live
or to die, as God should will, with
in sight of its heaving pillows,
within sound of it's manifold voices.
With wan, feverish face tenderly
lifted tothe cooling breeze, he look
ed out wistfully upon the oceans
changing wonders; on it's far sails,
whitening in the morning light !;
on its restless waves, rolling shore
ward to break and die beneath the
monday sun; on the red clouds of
evening, arching low to the hori-
ION on the serene and shining
pathway of the stars Let us think
that his dying eyes read mystic
meaning which only the rapt and
parting soul may know. Let US
believe that in the silence Of the
receding world he heard the great
waves breaking on a further shore,
and felt already upon his wasted
brow the breath of the eternal
morning.

The strongest weapon you can

the suppression orsuccess Of immor-

yet it is singular that the Christian

point when he goes to the polls.
With the majority it is party first,

The Department of Agriculture
at Washington is gathering statis-
tics from Bernalillo county. After
it has got through there its agent
will probably go over into Valencia
and number those sheep of whom
we have heard so much of late.
From there he should run across to
Silver City and examine the plant
of tombstones said to be on the
promises Of Hon. John A. Miller,
then go down and make an esti-
mate Of the guano bed from which
the Messilla MclcS man draws all
his fertile ideas, stopping just long
enough at Fountains to test the
voting qualities Of his wine cellar,
and then continuing on by the way
Of the Indian Observation-Disclosures
he will note the progress Of the
Government in Transforming the
Mescaleros into agriculturists-
to Fort Stanton. and there deter
mine the s~hrinkago in DcLaney's

he might find profitable employ

THANKSGIVING.
by EUGENE FIELD.


Last March my mine PANIED out a fraud
My wife clcpcd in May
A fire broke ont and burned my barn
And all the stacks Of hay
The hoppers clcancdmy garden out
Ny cow took sick and died
The horses got the pinkeyc bad
And dropped On every side.
The bank suspended all at once
The rust got in the rye
A cyclone tore the whcatfield up
And all the wells went dry /;
The chickens slckencd with the pip
The hired girl ran off
Tie children one by Il took down
With Group and whooping cough.
And yet, despite this luck. | went
Down To the grocery store
And for a TURKEY go3blcr paid
Ny last two dollars DER;
l thought I'd kind o celebrate
Neutrality-suspicious. my word
Il tramp broke in the house last night
And stole the plagucy birdl

PATENTS ON MINES.

For tho Leader.
The Denver Mining ReUieacof the
18th contains an article full Of good
practical advice to mining men on
the matter of procuring patents for
their claims, as soon as the amount
Of work .justifos the application.
1t is true that the advantages Of an
early application cannot be over
estimated. The more valuable the
claim proves as development goes
on, the mere anxious becomes the
desire of q class Of men found in
every camp to iasten some
kind of a claim on the location, on
one preteXt or another, often sim
ply to be bought off or get some
interest. IT'S the history of every
successful mining camp hat more
adverse claims are entirely bogus
and made for dishonest purposes,
than have any honest merit. The
expense Of procuring a patent is
nominal in comparison with the
value of the property after patent.
Then all questions of title are at
rest, and the capitalist invests his
money without fear of having to be
dragged through the s~inuosities of
tedious litigation; another advan-
tage is that the application for
patent stops the necessity for an
nual assessments, and after patent
you have something which cannot
be interfered with by your envious
neighbors. C. T. D.
