night.
Colonel Wood and party left in bis
special car yesterday, at ! P. NJ, for
San Francisco.
The Santa Fe trains arrived and de-
parted on time yesterday, and the

HERALD some days ago.
Yesterday, train No. II from San
Francisco was two hours in arriving

time, and No. 20, from Ell Paso, due
to arrive at $50 P. NJ, was reported
| on time.
Mr.. Charles F. Sandburn, the night
ardmaster of the Southern Pacific
Company, who fell into pit the other
night and broke his arm, is now able
to be out again, and will shortly re-
sumo his business.
The Southern Pacific Company's
yard is full of cars at this time, and
the wonder is how the trains are. KEEP
moving. The work in the shops is
progressing finely, and everywhere
the signs of a great business is to be
seen.
A switchman OF the Southern Pa
cific Company named Williams fell
off box Car while switching the
other day and had a narrow escape
To any one not accustomed to the
sights of a big railroad yard, the
wonder is more men are not injured
Mr.. J. L. Cole, Freight Agent of the
Texas Pacific Company, with head
quarters in this city, resigned that po.
sition yesterday, on account of ill
health. Mr.. Cole is thorough rail
roader and a perfect gentleman, and
all his companions in the business
will be sorry to hear of his resigna-
ton.
Mr. r. Clark, General Agent of
the o. & M. Railway, with headquar-
ters at Louisville, KY, is in the city
and expects to remain some time
probably month. Mr.. Clark is an
"old-timer" and is type Of what u
jolly good natured railroad man can
be. He is around with the "boys'
doing the city, though he spends his
nights in Pasadena.
Mr.. A. L. Woolsey, is holding down
Trainmaster Thompson's office with
perfect success during that gentle
mans absence. He promises to be-
come great railroader some day for
he has the one trait necessary for sue
cess in that business-a close mouth.
He never refuses to tell a newspaper
man the news, but he always thinks
"what shall keep back"
Mr.. L. M, Fletcher, the jolly
Assistant Depot Ticket Agent Of the
Southern Pacific Company, did not
look like himself yesterday morning.
After careful study of his counten-
ance, it was discovered that the
change was caused by the absence of
his beautiful blonde moustache,
which he had sacrificed to the keen
edge OF a razor. 1t is said that MIR.
Fletcher's 'best grip insisted on the
removal of the adornment, but he fail
ed to verify this bit Of gossip.

N0 Strike Yet.

There was no sign of strike on the
Santa Fe's lines yesterday, The men
are still perfectly quiet and stick to
their work, without giving any sign OF
uneasiness. The order not to receive
perishable freight was revoked by Mr..
III. b. Wilkins at 5 P. NJ. yesterday,
and the company will now take every
think it can get with the assurance
that it will go through as usual. This,
so the authorities think here, is an
evidence that the managers OF the
Santa Fe Company do not anticipate
any further trouble.

The last of the Apache Indians of Geronimo's gang who were con fined at Fort Pickens, were removed to Mount Vernon, Alabama, by rail on the 21st of June. It was the intention of the government to send these, the youngest of the band to Carlisle, Penn, to school, but it seems there was no money for their transportation, and they were to be kept at Pickens until such time as the money could be got. The oth- CTS, about fifty in number, were sent to Mount Vernon about a month ago. There are now very near five hundred Indians, bucks and squaws at Mount Vernon. It Is supposed that the soldiers will leave here this summer to go into camp, and this, it is supposed, is the reason the In- dians were removed from Pickens. Florida paper.

Lodged in Jail.

A Columbus, Texas, dispatch of the 21st instant says: J. T. Town send, sheriff of this county, return ed from Montgomery county on Monday and lodged in jail here the notorious desperado Stafford, who figured so conspicuously in Brazo- ria and Matagorda counties last fall. The sheriff also brought along another man, Gus Simpson. Staf- ford and Simpson are charged with the murder of a negro who was the principal witness against certain other parties for the murder of two negroes in the Colorado bottom be- low Eagle Lake. Alter the murder of this negro Stafford and Simpson fled the country, but Sheriff Town send with untiring effort wired a description of them to various points in the state and offered re- ward out of his private purse. The parties got as far as Willis, in Mont gomery county, where Sheriff Si- monton, at Sheriff Townsend's re- quest, was on the watch. Stafford and Simpson rode up to a store in Willis,an Stafford dismounted and went into the store, when Simonton and his deputies covered them with shotguns and made them surrender. It turns out that Stafford is not the real name of the desperate who has been going under that name, but his real name is Dunham and he is wanted in other parts of the state for other crimes. After the arrest Stafford was completely shocked and let down.

Sundry Figures.

The present tariff of abomina. tions establishes an average rate oi 47 per cent. and fraction as the rate of duty on all imports. The Repub- licans call this protection and fight for it. The Mills bill establishes an average rate of 40 per cent. and upon this shriek goes up and ii is called free trade. One would think from reading Republicanjour- nals that customhouses were abol- ished by this Democratic measure, and that imports of all kinds were to be admitted into this country free. That would be free trade, but the honest observer can not see that a reduction of 7 per cent. on a tariff of 4 per cent. does away with custom-houses, and it does not. If eyer there were a protec- tive tariff in this country 1t was the tariff of 1S42. It was so called and so fought for until 1S46, when it was repealed. All the old Wings, all the protectionists of the time, fought for that tariff as the palla- dium of industry, and for years looked back to it as the ideal of a protective tariff. The average rate of duty levied under that tariff was 33 per cent. Now, the Herald would like to ask its Republican friends, Is B per cent protection and 40 per cent. free trade? Why do you wish to misrepresent facts and try juggle with a phrase? How hon. est can that man be who must ad- init that S3 per cent. is protection and then declare that 40 per cent. is free trade?-Chicago Herald.

Arizona is destined to enjoy a big boom in ranch properties from all indications, as there were never so many demands and inquiries being made for good range properties as at present. When American capi- talists are so eager for cattle ranges as to organize companies with the expressed object of securing grants of lands from the Brazilian and other South American countries for the purpose of growing cattle, it is but reasonable to suppose that such property in our own country is be- ing proportionately enhanced in value.-Hoof and Horn.

TBe Old Way and The New.

"How many rooms in your new house, my dear?" inquired a good old-fashioned mother of her daugh- ter, who has just acquired a West side home.
 "Ten apartments-receptionro room, drawing-room, dining-room, larder, cuisine, lavatory, and four cham bers, besides the attic and furnace room," was the reply.
 Dear me, how your father gets things mixed" exclaimed the old lady. "He told me after he bought the house, that there was a parlor, sitting-room, dining-room, pantry, kitchen, bathroom, four bedrooms, cellar and garret. Buffalo Ex- press.

The Wool Duty.

The wool manufacturer may bt making large proft-to which by the way, every man who carpets hi' floor must make an involuntary con
 tribution-but the laboring classes are protected to death or to the point of starvation. It is one o
 those cases in which everybody gets something, the boss a million and his employees a stale crust. This state of things may possibly be sat isfactory to the capitalist, but whether the workingmen will be content with their share remains to be seen. Only one mill in Kensing- ton is running on full time. The laborers there are lucky. Ore-third of the other mills are running on three-auarter time. The lowest possible wages and four days and a half of work out of seven! What does the wife do? She works at home trying to make both ends meet. And the children? They work, too, when they can get any thing to do. for the merest pit tance. Then two-thirds ofthe mills run-on half time and less. Small wages and half time And yet to hear the Republican leaders talk you would think that protection enables every man to send his boys to college or set them upin business, with prosperity and plenty in every direction. On the other hand, it contracts the market, destroys competition with other nations, helps the few and grinds the many 10 powder With free wool the worlds arkets will be open to us. Then if we haven't as much brains as the people of other nations and can't invent machinery that will give us our share of the general trade, that is our business. With an increasing demand for ouF goods the dead mills will start up. That means steadier work for the wage earners. The half time mills will run on full time-steadier work again. The laboring classes are beginning to see through this little conundrum, and when they do, the high tariff and the sweet soft sawder about protection as the panacea for all the evils in the poor mans life will suddenly take trip to those picturesque regions where the wood bine twineth.-New York Herald.

The Fl Paso Tribune says a gi- gantic scheme has been proposed, by which the canyons of the Rocky Mountains are to be damned up from the Canadian boundary to Mexico, in order to form vast reser- voirs of water to be used in the lower country. Major Powell, di- rector of the national survey, says the American Banker, estimates that at least l50,000 square miles of land might thus be reclaimed-a territory exceeding in extent one half of the land now cultivated in the United States. The plan is to build dams across all the canyons in the mountains large enough and strong enough to hold back the floods from heavy rains and melt ing snow, and then let the water down as it may be needed upon the land to be reclaimed.

Hold the Steers Upon the Range,

! AAOAu tHO OtOOAC OPOA SAO A1uASCe
 The corn crop in the steer feeding states, 1t is said, will be the best in years. This means that the indus try of maturing steers will again start into activity in those locali- ties. The general feeling of hope fulness in a future of better prices will be greatly stimulated among cattle feeders by the splendid corn crop that is pretty sure to be har- vested this year.
 It should now be borne in mind by our cattle raisers that the sup ply of cattle to the east of us, in the corn growing states, is nowhere near adequate to the demand in fact, there are no cattle to speak of 1 to be obtained in the central west ern states for feeding purposes. While the markets of slaughter are not likely for some time to be at tractive to the range cattle grower, yet he will probably find a good demand from the feeders for all steers suitable for maturing. The range of New Mexico will be called upon without doubt to supply this inevitable demand. Our steers have generally shown splendid results when topped out in the feeding pens with corn. They take on flesh rap idly and are profitable to the ma turer. The effort should now be made by the cattlemen to sell their good steers to the eastern feeders instead of forcing them upon mar ket this fall that is likely to be over burdened with unripe stock. The maturers will be glad to know where to find such stock as they want. They will come to the range to buy, which Is a feature of the business that should be gratifying and satis- factory to the grower. On the ranch the seller will naturally have a bit more confidence Ill himself and his steers than when he is con- fronting the cataclysfn which the eastern markets of slaughter usual ly presents to him. The stockman here should encourage the move ment, which we are confident will soon become a part of his business, to sell his product on the range. The toying with the lion on the camping ground of the buyer has been practiced long enough. Bunch up the steers and then invite in- vite inspection. The maturers will have to come to the range to get steers, if they continue to make beef for the market.
 Don't fill the already plethoric purse of the big four by sending forward your steers to their slaugh- l
  ter pens. It is playing a game in which they always hold the winning cards.-Stock Grower.

Playing Confidence Games.

"A new class of swindlers have begun operations in Fifth Avenue and Upper Broadway" said one of Inspector Byrnes' detectives this morning while watching a well dressed woman across the street.
 That lady over there is leading member of the gang" he continued.
 'She would make $1O or S15 to-day if let alone. She used to be a shop litter. Because of the danger of de- lection, and certain knowledge that she'd be sentenced for the long est term possible if again arraigned before any justice in this city, she and some of her former compan- ions have conceived the idea of making good living as aristocrat- ic beggars. You see they dress fashionably, have pleasing manners and know just whom to strike.
 "A good natured business man is their victim every time. One of the gang will accost him in the middle of a block, out of hearing distance. Her manner of greeting him would lead one across the street to think her an acquaintance. In a low tone she says she has lost her pocketbook or been robbed. Her husband or brother, of course, is a member of the same exchange as the gentleman addressed. Her name IS given and recognized, and then, with false embarrassment and blushes, she would trouble her vic tim for few dollars.
 "Nine times out of ten the unsus- pecting individual will say. Why, certainly; pray don't mention it, and pass over fve-doilar note in a hurry, glad at the opportunity to do it. The swindler asks for his card and goes in search of another vic tim, after expressing her hearty thanks. The same person is never struck twice, and in this way the swindlers escape positive detection. A few of the fraternity will tackle members of their own sex with a story calculated to win dollar or two; but this is only done when there is scarcity of male prey. They work all sorts of dodges, and are often successful simply because of their fine appearance and good maners. I tried hard to get well known society man who had been swindled by that woman across the way to prosecute her but he declined, saying it would be shame to lock up such a pretty woman.

Judge Riddle, of Pennsylvania, is a very close observer and some times gives impressions to his court quite unexpected to litigants, their representatives, jurors and specta- tors. In charging a grand jury few days ago in reference to lotte- ries he remarked: "The history of public morality in regard to lotteries, is quite curious. I have a lottery ticket issued as far back as 1761, to aid in building 8 church at Oxford. That church was afterward presided over by a brother of President Buchanan. At that time lotteries were considered legitimate, and were almost as frequent as apothe- cary shops are today. But expe- rience taught us they were demor- alizing and stringent laws had to be passed against anything in the semblance of lottery. At the present day lotteries are held only by two classes of people-very reli- gious people and very bad people. and strange to to say the most difficult thing is to eradicate them among the good people"

The largest number of disagreeing couples had been married from five to ten years. One hundred and nine couples wanted to be divorced be- fore the honeymoon had waned.
