The Lincoln County leader. [volume] (White Oaks, Lincoln County, N.M.) 1882-189?, 1888-07-28
A Model Woman.

1.-THE facts cited in the following,
which we clip from the Albuquer-
que Democrat, are substantially
those presented in the LEADER a
few months ago, and we reproduce
them in their hew and well fitting
dress
Eight years 40 Mr.. and Mrs. G.
b. Barber went to Lincoln county,
in this territory, and took up a
ranch on the public dom amor
rather took up the land upon which
to make ranch. To ecenumize
their resources, Mr.. Barber, who
is an attorney, went to Lincoln and
opened a law office, while his wife
took charge of tie work OF i'm
proving the ranch, and from that
time to this she has had absolute
control Of the place. She planned
and superlntended the constrUc-
ton Of all the buildings on the
place, designated the location of
the fences, corrals, and all the
necessary works of ths character,
at the same time overseeing the
cowboys, masons, carpenters and
farm hands. Not long ago the
agent Of an eastern company, at
tracted by the fine location and the
able management displayed IN the
business recommended it 70 his
principals as good investment.
and the consequence was that a
half interest in the place was sold
TO the company, the number OF
cattle was increased to 5000 head,
and Mrs. Barber was employed as
general manager OF the entire busi-
ness. AT the same time that she
was putting up the buildings and
making the necessary improve
ments for the cattle ranch, she also
had u force of men at work improv-
ing another portion of the land for
a farm, from which she is now
raising fine crops Of grain and veg
etables, more than enough to sup
ply all her own employees and ami
mails, and has fruit and berries Of
all kinds IL profusion. She has
the most perfect order and system
in every department OF the bust
ness, and has rendered a valuable
service to ranchmen generally by
demonstrating the tact that cowboys
can be gentlemen. Gums" have
been entirely dispensed with, the
"cow men" wear clean shirts, take
off their hats when they come into
the house, wash Their faces, comb
their hair, and put on their coats
when they come to the table, and
otherwise respect the customs of
civilization. Mrs. Barber is a
model for her sex, and has shown
that some women, at least, can
manage large and important busi-
ness interests Just as successfully as
members of the rougher sex.

Glow do you mark card2" said q
Graphic man to Charley Mosster as he
stood on Fourteenth street and Sixth ave-
nue. last night watching the world as it
passed.
Easy enough. was his answer. 1--WE
do 1T III the same way that the blind man
reads-by tho sense of feeling. Before
we can read these cards they must be put
in shape. This is done with ring which
Is worn on the most convenient finger
On the inside of the ring-l mean the
part under the tngcr-is little steel
spur, not sharp enough TO penetrate the
cards and make hole, which would be
detected, but II slight indentation, re
sembling Il Pimple, on the back of the
card, but 50 small that with close obser-
walton it would not be noticed
This we cannot see, but we can feel
1t, and the location is the cipher to tho
denomination of the card. OF course we
have to see and handle the cards before we
they can be marked. but rs we can handle
from five to ten cards each deal, it does
not take long TO have all the important
cards punctured, Reading cards marked
in this way is easy to me. have one sys-
TEN as TO the location OF marks, and it Is
just as simple as telling the same by the
location of the hands of clock in the
absence of the regular dial figures. Sharp
players make their punctures SO slight
that they cannot be detected by the ordi-
nary sense of feeling.
The reading is then done with the ball
of the thumb from which the outer cuticle
has been removed by acid. The mother
skin Is very tender, and readily responds
when 1t comes in contact with the mark.
Greeks of this class can be detected by
watching the thumb of the right hand in

SCENE DURING TIE O'DoSNELL TRIAL.
As all readers know, there was much
mystery about the murder, but tho mur.
dcrers were discovered and punished at
last, though tho discovery led to the sen.
sational killing Of the principal Gin
former" and the hanging In turn OF the
man who killed him. In the effects Of the
men arrested were found letters from
various public men, innocent enough In
themselves, but exciting suspicion at q
time when the public mind wns heated.
On the b, strength of these Tho London
Times made charges of completely against
Messrs. Parnell. Egan, Frank ODonncll
and others, and finally published incrim.
mating letters which tho accused de-
nounccd as forgorics. Then Mr.. ODon-
nell began his libel suit against The
Times, which ended in an unsatisfactory
verdict, after which came the alleged dis.
covery that plaintiff and defendant were
in collusionl And then the question be-
came one as TO what method Mr.. Parnell
should take-an inquiry in parliament. q
commission of judges appointed by parlia-
mont, or direct suit against The Times.
The parties TO tho O'Donnell suit, the
attorneys and the judges are now men OF
prominence, pleasant or unpleasant. Mr..
L. ii. ODonnell is a journalist, who en-
tered parliament as an Irish patriot,
member for Galway and Dungavie, and
was reckoned among tho most brilliant
leaders of the Nationalist party. but re-
fused to approve recent measures Of his
party and withdrew from its councils.
His only counsel in the case was Mr..
Alfred Henry Ruegg, a rather youthful
barrister, against five Of the greatest
lawyers in England. with Attorney Gen.
eral Sir Richard Webster Mt their head.
Mr.. Ruegg managed his case well, but it
is claimed that the fact of his being tho
only counsel renders certain some sort of
an understanding" between O'Donnell
and Mr.. John Walter. chief of the Lon
don Times and defendant.
