TERRITORIAL TIPS.

TERRITORIAL TIPS.
Speaking OF pistols reminds me of an
episode in New Mexico along in 80. A
stage coach was held up near Socorro.
The passengers were stood in line by the
two knights of the road and searched for
valuabes. One of the travellers, little
Hebrew drummer, seemed almost wild
with fright. His hands wobbled as they
were held above his head, and the rob-
bers paid little attention to him. The
weak hands Topped around aimlessly for
awhile; then, when the robbers were not
looking, suddenly descended to the level
of the neck, two shots rang out quick and
sharp, and the stage robbers dropped,
each with ball in his body. Large coat
collars were worn in those days, and the
inoffensive little drummer carried self
cooking revolver at the back Of his neck.

Prof. Spatcer received last week five
palm trees from the United States depart
ment OF agriculture at Washington. ID. G..
These trees came originally from the
banks OF the Nile river. Should the pro-
lessor succeed in propagating superior
quality of dates, We may expect date
raising to be one of the chief industries of
the valley. Great credit is due Prof.
Spatcier for the many efforts he has made
to discover what is most Indigenous to
this part OF the country, and our fruit
rasers will await with interest the results
of his experments.-l.as Cruces Repuh-
lican.
Las Cruces note; q. b. Bariani, OF
Cheyenne, Wyo., has arrived in Las
Cruces with Capt. Grierson. He comes
to look over the field in order to see what
can be done in the way of reservoir
buildings, having had years OF experience
in that line of business Mr.. Bariani is
highly delighted with this country which
he compares to his native Italy, and
which possesses many Of the same char
acteristicsr as regards climate and fruit
production.
NIessrs. Bell & Stephens cleaned up
after run OF 2l7 tons of ore, which was
worth $50 per ton. That was one of the
best runs ever made in this district, the
bars Of the glittering metal were grand to
behold. The ore was taken from the end
of the ground south that is in dispute be-
tween Mr.. Bell and Snyder and Skillicorn.

Conceit and egotism from the Las We
gas Optic: The New MEXICAN is troub-
ling itself about the scarcity of news in
Las Vegas. This is gall doubly distilled.
With all the attention which the Optic has
given to politics, there is yet more local
~ har r,
there is in any Elk issues of the New Men
ICAN."
Prof. Hiram Hadley, president OF the
agricultural college, has gone east to at

Prof. Aronson, the Celebrated Optician.
The New MEXICAN is gratifed to note
the arrival of Prof. |. Aronson, a scien-
tifc and practical Optican from Chicago,
who comes highly recommended by the
press and leading people Of many states.
He is making professional tour through
New Mexico and the southwest. His
method OF fitting the proper lenses to
the human eye is known to, be the best
throughout the civilized world. His in
struments are the same as are used in the
Opthalmic hospital in New York city and
other celebrated hospitals. The optical
lenses which are ground for his use are
larger than common and possess an
extra brilliancy which give ease and COM
fort to the wearer more than any other,
and will last for longer period without
making any changes. Give him trial
and if satisfaction is not given he will re-
fund your money. Remember your
eyes are valuable and you can
not afford to ruin them by the use of i'm
proper lenses, and such a chance is not
often met with, therefore take advantage
of the present opportunity. The follow
ing are some we'll known gentlemen
whom he has fitted with glasses during
his trip in New Mexico. Hon. +. A..
Fiske, U. S. attorney; Judge L. Emmett,
Elk Chief Justice Vincent, Mr.. Sporleder,
Mr.. l. Stern, D. j. Mcdonald, depot
agent, Las Vegas; Col. Morrow, Fort
Union; Gov. 0. A. Hadey, of Watrous 4;
Major Lippincott, surgeon, U. s. A.; DR..
Hoffman, and many others. BY re-
quest he will call at any residence or
office without additional charge. Office
at Palace hotel, room 20; he will remain
here short time only; consultation
free; charges for fitting any difficult case
of refraction reasonable. Fail not to see
him. Note street circular.
The Great Majority
OF cases Of scrofula and other blood dis
eases are hereditary, and therefore diff
cult to cure. But We wish to state in the
most positive, emphatic manner that
Hoods Sarsaparilla does cure scrofula in
every form. The most severe cases, too
terrible ior description, have yielded to
this medicine when all others failed. Ii
you suffer from impure blood in any way,
take Hoods Sarsaparilla.
