MpnGing. BADLY and Well.

q comic song, and if l had you all
about me. | would use them as text
whereon to- hang a sermon. 1t spoke
of the evenress of the stitches, the
gracefulness of the outlines, and the
neatness of a work girl did in en-
broidery and on canvas, but went on to
say, ''you ought to see the patch she
put on her fathers pantaloonsr' She
was doubtless like the young lady whose
only drawback to happiness while visit
ing was that she had to darn her own
stockings and mend her flounces. Both
probably considered repairing in everv
form too mental for their dainty fingers,
more accustomed to embroidery and
worsted needles than their larger and
more useful sister, the darning needle.
English matrons in the education of
their daughters are very particular
about this, and the maidens are taught
that there is no disgrace in putting their
best work and most even stitches upon
dilapidated stockings.
''Don't you just hate that work."
asked busy housewife as she brought
out her basket of mending. 80, no, -
she replied, Il like it, the things look
so much nicer when all finished, and
my mother taught me always to patch
neatly-so | am never ashamed to see
my children in mended clothing"
think this woman had the right idea OF
this weekly horror, as 1 know she did
not enjoy mending for its own sake, but
knowing it had to be done, she set
cheerfully about it, really admiring the
neatly mended garments that had so
annoyed her with their tatters the week
before. Then another thing about her
mending basket | admired, was that it
was always empty before Saturday;
whenever during the week she found a
few minutes leisure, she would darn a
pair of stockings or mend a torn apron;
so all were put away before the last day
of the week.
Now, girls, you each should learn this
art-for art it really is and if your
mother does not require you to do it
neatly, Iwish you would show enough
Iself-reliance to perfect yourselves there
in all the same, knowing it surely will
be required of you later in life. Learn
how to insert patch with the corner so
nicely turned that there shall be not the
least pucker, and how to put patch
underneath hole with almost invisible
stitches. Learn to match figures and
stripes with precision; and not to put
unshrunken ginghams on partly worn
goods, for when the garment is washed,
the new piece will draw up and look
untidy. Learn to use coarse thread
where real strength is needed, but that
fine is always better elsewhere. Learn
how essential it is that the stitches be
always even, although long ones are
iftentimes just as good as shorter ones.
Il darning, weave the threads under
md over with as much care and exact
ness as the woven threads in your mus
in dress, and do not imagine that
darning is confined to stockings; table
inen, fine towels, knitted underwear,
md many other things, are darned with
advantage, Indeed, | once read of a
maiden lady who could use her darning
lcedle so deXterously that she cut holes
her fine table-cloths for the pleasure
If darning theml-Aunt O6Uia,. IN

The Lincoln County leader. [volume] (White Oaks, Lincoln County, N.M.) 1882-189?, 1883-05-26

On the last night of our stay at
Lincoln there was a "baile" given
in the hallway adjoining our room
which was the first we ever attend
ed. The participants were all we'll
dressed and their demeanor unex-
ceptionable. The only noticeable
difference to us between ball and
bale was that in Mexican dances
there was no calling" all partici-
pating seeming to dance by rote.
When American dances were en-
gagged in the services of a "caller"
were employed.
1t was our intention to indulge
in an extended notice of Lincoln,
and with that view took notes, but
before leaving made arrangements
with a gifted writer Ash Upton)
to write a serial, which will present
a full and complete history of the
town and county, history which
we feel assured our every local
reader will enjoy and appreciate.
On Friday we returned by the
same conveyance we departed with
riding after as fine a span of road
sters as ever we sat behind, the
ribbons being handled by their
owner, Willie Lane. Our trip was
enjoyable and we resume our Ia.
bors refreshed and invigorated.

The LEADER in a recent issue
states that there was no work being
dond on any Of the mines in this
district, and we see that several of
the papers throughout the territory
take particular pains to copy it.
1t was bad enough to publish it,
even if it was true, but when every
body knows that the statement was
false, it become an outrage, as
we'll as decided injury to the
camp.
Thus spake the pencil whittier OF
the Oroide Era last week. Our
statement was correct, and even to-
day there are not a dozen men en-
ployed in our mines. We are Of
those who do not believe that il
subserves any interest to misrepre-
sent and exaggerate. The outside
and inside world we'll knows that
the precious minerals abound here,
and the reason for non-develop
mentls also known. The delay il
temporary. But we will not lie, and
but told the sober truth when We
gave out the fact that work on oul
mines was suspended.

TERRITORIAL.
a VISIT TO LINCOLN.

OIl uCou~J vi ldob WSCh VIC oCb
out for Lincoln in company with
Gov, Chase, Judge Tomlinson, DR..
Lane and Mr.. Reed. Up to that
period we were unacquainted with
our surroundings, and yeaned to
see the country which hedged us in,
The day wss lovely one, our com
pany all companionable, and every
thing seemed to consplre to make
our trip enjoyable.
We had heard much of the seen
cry spread out between the Oaks
and Lincoln, but the half had not
been told us. AS we turned our
back on the Carlo Mountain, we
were surprised to see it looking
upon us miles distant from another
point Of the compass and seeming
as though it would accompany us
during our entire trip. Then the
White Mountains seemed everlast-
ingly in sight, and while we ira
yersed region beauteous with veg
citation, the vision as it reached
upward to said mountain rested
upon snow. Then the Captains
loomed up, surrounded by ranges
which would make a cows mouth
water and cause a herdsman to
prick himself in order to ascertain
whether or not he was in New Mexi-
co or a delicious trance. Then we
passed through what is known as
Torres Ranch" as fine an ex
panse Of country as man ever rode
over.
The Bonito is a smaller stream
than we expected to see, but it,
waters were clear to the eye anc
cooling to the palate, and we are
told is never failing.
About 2 o'clock p. m. we rolled
into Lincoln, and were agreeabl,
surprised at the.appearance of thu
town. The citizens seemed tc
have brought thither asthetic taste
and trees, green and vigorous
planted by hand, not nature, gree
the eve upon every hand, render
ing the landscape enhancing.
We were personally acquainted
with but few Of the people of Lin
coin, but the LEADER was wei
known, and when the citizens learn
ed that the editor was with then
they seemed to vie with each othe
to render our stay agreeable. Gu
genial County Treasurer, Arcade
Sais, rendered us the occupancy O
as nicely furnished bed room a
there is in the Territory. To him
Jose Montana, the Dolan Bros.
and a number of others we are un
der especial obligations for favor
conferred.

WE were highly gratifed this

WE were highly gratified this
week on receiving as an exchange
the Ell Paso Times, edited by r. j..
Hinton, who years since served
with us on the editorial staff Of the
Republic, a political magazine pub
lished at Washington, D. @. Dick
covers his brains with his hat, and
is one of the most indomitable
workers we know Of. He may be
said to have graduated in the West,
having lived here or heroabouts
since early in the SOS, and if he
doesn't make the Times the best
paper in Texas we yearn to ex-
change with the one that will exec
it. Thou art so near and yet SC
far" Dick, but shake.

Dear Sir.-The time is passing
so rapidly that / venture to call
your attention to the Importance
of immediate action in securing an
exhibit of the miner al resources
of your locality. If a meeting has
not already been called, ! suggest
that you in connection with other
committeeman of your locality "a
list of whom is herewith enclosed)
take immediate action in that direc-
ton. 1t is no longer a question
that the number of strangers who
will visit New Mexico during
the exhibition will aggregate many
thousands and it will be nnfortu-

GALVANIZED JUSTICE.

John Bull filled his big paunch
with Irish blood last week. Sever
al men accused of crime passed
through the form of trial, and on
testimony which, in this country,
would not convict dog, were con
victed, and ere they had scarce
time to kiss the velvet lips of their
mothers, wives and children were
strung up on tie gallows. But
Let towards sneer and tyrants frown,
Ohllittle do we care;
A felon's caps the noblest crown
An Irish head can wear;
And though they sleep in dungeons deep,
Or flee outlawed and banned,
We love them yet, we can't forget
The felons Of our land"
AS sure as God reigns, SO sure
will the day of retribution come,
and when it does usher in, fearful
will be it's workings.
Far dearer the grave or the prison,
Humid by one patriots name,
Than the trophies of all who have risen
On'liberty's ruin to fame"
= The Denver Tribune strikes an
answering chord in the breast of
every lover of liberty when he
speaks as follows
owe have suggestion tor the
Irish National League. Instead of
devoting its next meeting to dis
cussions Of dynamite let it study
Joe Brady's execution. There is
enough to boast of in his mothers
words to occupy meeting. The
courage Of Sparta, the courage
which has become classic, reappear-
ed in an old Irish woman. Let the
League study what there is in this.
1t could not find q stronger motto
than her words: "Mind Joe! No
statementw The blood of inform
ers never trickled through the veins
Of that family. Such a mother new
er bore an informer.
\ y X
" Mind, Joe! no statementP'
The eager fear of the old Irish
mother thai her son might forget
his manhood is a splendid tribute
to the Irish agitation.
1t is little wonder that one reads
later in the account: Brady
made no statement to the Jail chap
lain or the governor of the prison.
One Of the last things he did was tc
write letter to his mother He
carried a prayer book in his hand
to the scaffold, and was thorough
ly resigned and firm.
There is a poem iu this, if the
fools can only see it. In the mean
time there ought to be subscription
for Joe Brady's mother. Denver
can offord to start it. Let our 10
cal Irish societies make the move
That old woman ought to receive
some compensation for her son'
blood. She is worth Thousand
O'Donovan Rossas. There was
homeric grandeur in her last word
to her boy. If there is anything
in the sentiment for Irish justic
she has earned peace and comfor
for the rest of her boys"
