Most Remarkable Echoes.

Many wonderful echoes are known,
but the one which takes the first place
seems to be that of the old palace Of
Simonetta, near Milan, which forms
the three sides of quadrangle. The
report of pistol is said to be repeated
by this echo sixty times, and Addison.
who visited the place on somewhat
foggy day, when the air was unfavor-
able, counted ffty-s.x repetitions. At
first they were quick, but the inter-
walls were greater in proportion as the
sound decayed. The echo at the
Eagles Nest on the banks of Killarney
is renowned for its repetition of a
bugle call, which seems to be repeated
by hundred instruments, until it
gradually dies away in the air. AT
the report of a cannon the loudest
thunders reverberate from the rock
and die in seemingly endless peals
along the distant mountains.-New
York Telegram.

The 'sNEw ENGLAND MAGAZINE for
April is of more solid character than the
preceding numbers. II has fewer illustra-
tons than some other numbers. 1t is of a
historical character, more particularly A
noticeable article is one on the attitude of
the Indian agent towards the Reservation
Of which he is in charge, by Elaine Good
ale, who has been a teacher among the In
dians for some time. She charges that the
agent is an autocrat, that the various Res
eryations are little despotisms within the
Republic, and that the administration of
law depends upon the character of the a.
gent This officer has ii within his power
to regulate affairs as he pleases. @.If the
power of life and death is not in his hands
he can make any persons life exceedingly
uncomfortable who does not choose to do
his will. Miss Goodale's statements may
be heavily charged, but we can easily see
where the truth comes in. A natural reply
of an agent to these charges would be that
Miss Goodale had tried 10 run some Reser-
walton and got left And vet the article is
worth reading and may call out a reply.
The editor, Dr. Hale. gives some bits of
home travel. The magazine seems to- be
upon pretty sure basis and it is
well worth its cost and the time needed in
which TO read it. Published in Boston by
the New England Magazine Co., at 90 per

Mr., BOOTHS BUYINGS,
New Mexico Mutton and its Demand
Feeders for Kansas-A Drive
Of $4,000 Head.

Mr.. G. J. Booth, the intelligent sheep
buyer for Swift & Co., is spending few
days in Santa Fe which he freely admits
has the finest climate on earth. Speak.
ing OF New Mexico sheep, Mr. Booth
says Colorado butchers and Kansas, Iowa
and Missouri feeders have never drawn
80 heavily upon the hocks of this terri
tory as this season. His purchases alone
numbers nearly $4,000 head. He says q
quarter-blood native sheep from New
Mexico is recognized throughout the CEN
trail western states as making the most
savory mutton that can be produced on
American soil the sweet, short grasses
here giving it delicious flavor. When
too high graded, however, the meat be-
comes stringy and tough, similar to the
Ohio and Pennsylvania mutton. Swift &
Co. have four extensive feeding pens in
Kansas which are kept full Of New
Mexico sheep. They are usually fed from
four to six months, then shipped to Kan
sas City and slaughtered, whence their
carcasses are sent in refrigerator cars to
the four corners OF the land. Prices are
now ranging from 81 to SO. The lamb
crop, Mr., Booth finds, has this year been
the heaviest in the history OF the country.
Wool is selling at good figure and sheep
raisers ought to prosper. Mr.. Booth has
just started drive Of 5000 head of sheep
from Chama to Hutchison, Kas., and has
purchased 5000 head from Hon. M. S.
Otero's Vale mountain ranches which
will be driven east from Espanola in q
few days. Mr.. Booth goes from Santa Fe
to Clayton shortly where he will continue
