ONLY few members or the Republ- can County Central Committee met at the court house Saturday evening to make arrangements for mass cOnven- ton to select delegates to the Phenix convention, which is to select delegates to the national convention. It was agreed to call the court ty mass conven- ton on Saturday. April 18th. Messra. Davis, Osborn and Rollins were ap- pointed committee to make all the ar ranRements necessary. As this op2or- tunity to have something to say for the good of our country only occnrs once in four years, and about the only time our political actions count, we hope there will be some interest manifested. There are two delegates to be sent to the Chi cago convention, who will vote for a candidate for the nomination for Presi- dent, and 1t may be a close contest, and two votes be of importance, therefore 1t behooves us to send good, true and tried men to this convention.

HE Commander of the Grand Army Of the Republic of New Mexico has is- sued an order for Memorial Day, 3Oth of May. Calling attention this early to that day IS not a bad idea. There is an organlzation in Tucson and we hope they will take early steps for the proper celebration of this memorable day. Last year 1t was too hastily gotten up, though 1t was very cveditably done.

How studious our esteemed cotem- porary IS in the matter of throwing all the blame upon the whites and exon- erating the Indian murderers. By what influence IS the Star controlled?

If Arthur cannot be elected becanse Blaine's friends will knife him, then Blaine cannot be elected because Arthur's friends will knife him.

After the stock IS given up, let the military turn Geronimo over to the civil authorities for trial upon the charge of murder.

Household Hints.

A dainty work bag may be fashioned from a
silk handkerchief One of pale pink or blue
b1ocade is the p%rettiest.
The wash boiler should always be carefully
dried, and if there is the least tendency to rust
rub the inside with a little lard.
Pals of water in which hay has been stepped
absorbs the smell of fresh. paint. Asaucer of
ground coffee will serve a like purpose.
Very pretty hand-screens may be made from
palmleaf fans, which may be covered with en-
broideredsatin or with peacock feathers.
A pretty fancy for decorating picture frames.
is to paint the plain molding blue or pink, orany
color you choose, and then decorate with flow
ers.
An effective border for q square table cover
may be formed by applying disks of silk or satin
on handsome contrasting material; i'll the disks
embroider sprays of flowers, birds, butterflies or
geometrical figures.
Bread, biscuit, rolls, and the crust of pies, are
all greatly improved in flavor and color if they
are lightly brushed over with milk Just before
they are put into the oven. A little sugar dis
solved in the milk is an addition also
Delicious filing for a layer cake is made Of
bananas, sliced thin, with powdered sugar
sprinkled over them. The bananas should not
be prepared until almost tea time, for they be-
come discolored if they are perfectly ripe and al
lowed to stand long,
