On the 25th day of last July, j.
"A. Alcock was one of the happicst
men in the Territory, the occasion
OF his happiness being that on that
day to him a child was born. On
Saturday, the 7th inst, no more
detected man, no man more bowed
down, inhabited New Mexico than
the same little gentleman, the oc-
casion being that death had IaId lis
cold hand upon his little cherub's
heart and stilled it's beating. -
Group had stopped the little fel-
lows breath, and hfeless clay took
the place Of prattling growing
buoyancy. 1t lived just long
enough to entwine it's hoart-strings
with those of it's parents, and when
they were snapped it seemed for IA
time to the stricken ones that life
was not worth the incident strug-
gle. On Sunday the little remains
were deposited in the cold ground
adjoining the residence on Carizozo
Ranch. It's lite and death bring
to us the following sweet and apro-
pos lines, written but short time
ago by Clark w. BRYAN
We rock the cradle gaily. and swing it to
and fro.
A new life sleeps within it. In tender
tones and low,
A mother sOothes to slumber, in love.
notes soft and mild.
While held in sleep and safety, there
rests an earth born child.
As we rock the cradle gaily.
We lay aside the cradle, the bird its nest
has flown,
And spread its pinions boldly, to make
its way alone
TO tly, to fall in sorrow, or raise and keep
its way.
Mid tolls, temptations, triumphs, fair
fruitage of lifes day.
AS VIC lay aside the cradle.
We bend above the coffin, another soul
has fled
The earthly fight is over, is won, or lost,
and dead.
The babe who in the cradle first knew of
earthly strife,
And there. with hands close folded lies
all we know of life,
As we bend above the coffin.

ground for so doing had not even
the fimsy excuse Of technicality,

ground ever standing was that our

rected, that it was published every
Saturday. But the p M. knew
that 1t was so published, ,anddin or.

placed the line under the editorial
head " Published every Satur-
dav at 50 per year" This too, af-

technicality thin, and also after he
had given us a certificate, such 8
