well worth hearing. Mr.. Bowser's seven
years experience in India enables him to

subject. Mr.. Bowser does not aim to

in theories, but his lectures are brim full

and other interesting place. His descrip-

1t was ten years ago to-day that Judge
Prince arrived in Santa Fe, SO that he
counts this as his tenth New Mexican
birthday, The railroad then only ex-
tended to Trinidad, and the trip from
there in the stage occupied fifty hours.
Great changes have taken place in those
ten years in very many ways. A rough
border element was then present in seve-
raj counties, so that OH his first circuit
Judge Prince held not less than nine
murder trials. East Las Vegas was an
unbroken field, and New Albuquerque, of
course, unthought Of. All the modern
court houses, now SO general in New
Mexico have been built within that period.
Small talk is the small change of life ;
there is no getting on without it. There
are times when little nonsense is very
palatable, and gravity and sedateness
ought to be kicked down stairs. A phi
losopher cuts poor figure in ball room
unless he leaves his wisdom at home.
| We have met with men who were too lofty
for small talk. They were above such
trifing; in other words they were above
pleasing and above being pleased. The
world is made up OF trifes; and he who
can trifle elegantly and gracefully is a
valuable acquisition to mankind. He is a
Corinthian column in the fabric OF society.
Preparations for the marriage of Miss
Anna Staab and Mr.. Louis Ilfeld are
about complete. The marriage ceremony
will be performed by Judge Brinker at the
residence of Mr.. Staab, the bride father,
and the reception, dancing and wedding
banquet will be at the Palace. The large
dining room, reception and reading rooms
will be utilized and suitably decorated. A
good many guests from Albuquerque and
Las Vegas will be present. A wedding
trip to Denver is part of the program.
The New MEXICAN extends sincere con-
gratulations and best wishes for the future
welfare of the very charming young lady
and of that sterling young business man,
who are to be married on Tuesday evening
and become one for life.
