story entitled. "What She Made of
Her Life" specially written for its
pages by Mrs. Lydia Hoyt Farmer,
of Cleveland, Ohio. This story will
continue for about eight months. A
notable interesting and timely article
is alaska, Past Present and Future"

fed with "The Message of Music to
Man." Meyerbeer, Lindapainter and
Volkmann in "The Sacred Musicians
Series" The Bach B-centenial,"
"The Music Of The Rose of Sharon"
and "Mr. Gladstone on Sacred Mu-
sic" DIR. F. w. Conrad, of the
Lutheran Observer, is the represen-
tative religious journalist depicted
in this number. Buddhist Worship
and Liturgy" is an exceedingly in
teresting article, and many will be
interested in "Beaconsfeld and
Gladstone" in which these two En-
elise statesmen are compared and
contrasted. DIR. Talmage has a
characteristic sermon, From Dun
geon to Palace" on the subject of
Joseph. and the same subject is
treated in the "Glances at Bible
History" There are many other
good articles and poems, and fine

]. J. Dolan has received several
letters from as many directors, de-
manding their apportionmcnt Of the
school fund. The directors of this
place have commenced suit against
Mr.. Dolan, as county treasurer, and
a temporary injunction was served on
him and the superintendent of
schools few days ago. The case
will be tried in Las Cruces the sec
ond Monday in March. We would
advise the superintendent to make a
new apportionnert. 1t would save
him great deal of expense and
satisfy parties all around. AS it is,
none of the teachers in the county
can draw any money and if the same
is not Forthcoming pretty soon many
OF them will quit. Make new ap-
portionment, Doctor, and lot the chill
dren Of this county be educated.
A fire broke out about s o'clock
this morning i'll the main room of the
Jail at this place, and If Jailor Lea
had not have been close by it would
have resulted in the cremation of
two of the prisoners. 1t happened
in this way. Mr.. Lea had made a
fire iii the stove few minutes be-
fore and cartridge happened to be
among the chips. When the wood
caught fire, the cartridge exploded,
forcing live coal from the front Of
the stove, which ignited in a pair
of pants hanging on the wall.
Two prisoners were in the cell OPP
posite the main room and they i'm
mediately shouted for help, but it
was not until they were nearly suffo-
Gated before the desired assistance
arrived. The side and top of the
room was burnt to crisp and had
it been allowed to burn ten min
utes longer nothing could have saved
it. The boys in Jail had close call
and they seem to be very thankful
Tat it was no worse than It i.
Last week we said that the daily
mail would STRIVE at $50 in the
evening and depart at 8 o'clock i'll
the morning. That was the schedule
made oat by the postmaster
at this place and the mail con-
tractor, but the postmaster al
Roswell would not sign it. The
time of delivering anl receiving
mail, when change is made in q
route, has to be signed BY all post
masters along that line, and as tho
Roswell man would not sign the
schedule, the mail arrives al
the old time, 8 O'Clock in tie
morning and leaves at 10 O'Clock in
the evening. 1t makes it bad fol-
this post Office, for letters mailed
here in the evening are taken to TT
Stanton, nine miles, and lay there till
2 o'clock the next afternoon. A,
the mail would arrive in Ro wei
, Just as soon as it does now, if the p
NJ. would sign the first schedule
: named, we can't see what reason he
should have in refusing to sign it.

Farmers As Business Men.

Il is popularity supposed by large
class of farmers that none but business
men need to acquire knowledge OF
business forms and rules. To their
mind the business man occupies posi-
ton similar to the lawyer and the doc
tor; he learns his trade and proceeds to
get . living by it. This class OF men
Believe that business forms are unintel-
ligible, whereas they are very simple.
He is as respectful at the mention OF
the words percentage, "draughts,
..bill of lading," invoice, as he is when
he hears the family physician talk Latin.
But every farmer is business man: he
has crops to 60 to market; he wants to
sell to the best advantage; he has to
sell oftentimes on credit, and he is con-
tinually buying. To all intents and
purposes he is q business man. 1t would
seem very desirable, however, that the
Younger men, who are one day to NIL
the places of the present generation,
should learn how to handle with ease
and accuracy the business forms and
methods which commercial men BY
long practice and experience have r.
duced to system:-Bgston 6sQ6e.

Every Point in Her Favor.

SO she slid into the seat he had just va
Gated. Soon he concluded the inter
view with the conductor and began to
slide back into his seat again. The lit
tie woman saw the proportions OF the

full magnitude and very alarming prox-
unity. Quickly digging her elbow into
the ribs Of her neighbor, whose head
and beard looked like q bundle of SAT-

the jeopardy of her situation to induce
him to raise his colossal fist and ''fend
off" the settling monster. Words can

An Intrepid Doctor Notes Its Course Along
the Earth.
A few years ago DR.. Triple was watch
ing very severe thunderstorm, when
he saw a fireban come quietly gliding
up to him, apparently rising from the
earth rather than falling toward it. In
stead of running away, like practical
man, the intrepid doctor held his ground
quietly and observed the fiery monster
with scientific nonchalance. After con-
tinuing its course for some time in a
peaceful and regular fashion, however,
without attempting to assault him, 1t
finally darted off at a tangent in another
direction, and turned apparently into
forked lightning. A fireball, noticed
among the Glendowan mountains in
Donegal, behaved even more eccentric

Irish antecedents. 1t first skirted the
earth in a leisurely way for
several hundred yards like cannon
ball; then it struck the ground,

which it disappeared in the DOGGY soil.

A LIFE OF AARDsHIPs.
A Providence Boys Experience ~ . De-
serter from the French Army.

A Providence Boys Experience ~ . De-
serter from the French Army.
The Nesrs printed, on Saturday,
story Of a boy who enlisted in the French
army and deserted three times. The
names were withheld because the
parents desired to keep to themselves
the greatest trouble of their lives. But
now as they have decided to appeal to
the Secretary of State for assistance in
getting their son out of the army. it
were better that the names be given,
tina. they may have the sympathy, at
least, of those who know the facts. The
fathers name is Simon Herion,
Prussian, who came to this country
about fourteen years ago. He is en-
ployed in the Wanskuck Mills, is citi-
zen of the United States, and is highly
esteemed for his industry, his Christian
character and worth. His wife is
Swiss. who lived on the French side of
the Confederacy. Hence, the father
speaking German and the mother
French, the boys (Henry and john be-
came fluent in the use of both. 1t is
unnecessary to repeat the story of the
boys wanderings. 1t closed with the
fact that Henry, the elder brother, had
been recaptured after his third
desertion and led back to prison. News
has been received that he was sentenced
to fifteen years hard labor with the
chain-gang. There are three French
military posts in Algeria. AT one of
these Henry is held. They live in tents,
and the fare is wretched. The guard
has orders to shoot any one who at
tempts to desert. But every one OF
them can be bought.
When Henry was recaptured after
one desertion he was kept 12O days in
an underground dungeon. given only
bread and water, and little dirty soup
once a week. The hardships through
which he has passed seem almost in
credible. When John reached Algeria
he went into the country to find the
farmer for whom Henry worked. The
farmer was away on two days jour
ney. John waited for his return, and
learned that Henry was in place near
the coast through which John passed.
As he stated in the other account, John
reached this place to see Henry led
away by a French officer. If he had
not lost two days waiting for the return
of the farmer. he would have found
Henry before the officer discovered him.
and he might have escaped. John at
once started for home, and is expected
every day. Henry Herion is a minor.
not twenty years of age, and on this
ground an attempt will be made through
the Secretary of State to effect his
release.
Since writing the above it has been
learned that the son John has this
morning reached his home in Wanskuck.
He left Algeria on November 22.-Pror-
