The people of New Mexico must not
forget that under the Ross Doodle admin
istration, from 1885 to 1889, when this
territory was cursed with corrupt judges
and dishonest federal and territorial court
officials, the cost OF running the courts
was 100000 per year; the people must
not forget that, owing to wise and bene
acial legislation passed by Republican
legislature over the veto OF that Doodle
governor, put into Office by Grover Cleve-
land, and owing to jus, aud honest ad-
ministration of the courts, the entire ex-
pense OF their administration for the first
swelve months of the present Republican
regime, amounted to only 100000, in
which sum there is included an estimate
OF deficiency in the pay of jurors, etc,
of about $40, 1000; this means that under
the Democratic administration the people
of New Mexico were systematically and
constantly robbed by corrupt Judges and
dishonest court officials.

THIS WILL HELP NEW MEXICO STOCK
MEN,

In its endeavors to gain an entrance
into San Francisco the A, 7. * S. F.
road has been handicapped for years by
the Southern Pacific company, but at last
it seems to have made point that will
be of advantage in many respects. 1t is
announced that the Armours, the Swifts,
and the hackers Of the Santa Fe company
have purchased $500 acres of land near
that city which will be utilized as stock
Yards and for dressed meat establish
ments as extensive as the Chicago con-
Germs of the Armours and Swifts. The
idea is to prepare there the bulk of the
meats consumed on the Pacific slope and
shipped from that coast to foreign coun-
tries. For Improvements $2,50O,0O0 will
be expended there and the Santa Fe ex-
poets to extend it's road from San Diego
to San Francisco in the next twelve
months. If such meat packing institu-
ton is erected there, and it seems NEST
probable, it will rebound to the benefit of
the stock raising industry along the line
of the Santa Fe road. New Mexico and
Arizona stock men may then have their
choice Of two markets, east and west,
where there is an ever ready demand for
all the fat stock they can supply

Mexico.
Certain title to the land is the founda-
ton to all values. Enterprise IN this
territory is greatly retarded because that
foundation is 80 often found lacking.
Continuing, the report says the work
incident to mineral surveys is well in
hand, yet. Notwithstanding the twenty
four, maps Of districts made during the
year work relating to mineral districts is
much behind. In fact, all work in the
surveyor generals Office is in arrears, and
with the present force it is impossible to
attend to it. 1t is suggested that al docu-
ments pertaining to land titles be copied,
as time and constant use are rendering
them useless. The completion of the in
dex OF Spanish documents is also urged.
1t is also recommended that, in order to
avoid mistakes in the future which have
happened in the past, the journals of the
departmental assembly should be either
translated or critically searched for action
touching land titles. 1t is stated that
many private land claims have never
been correctly or fully docketed, the orig-
nal entries having been made by incom-
petent persons.
The surveyor general asks for an ap-
preparation of SOL 500 for the carrying on
of this work up to the end OF the fiscal
year 1892, and particularly urges upon the
department of the interior the necessity
OF immediate action by congress looking
to the adjustment of land grant titles in
this territory.

THE foreign dispatches hasten TO in

This is encouraging in view Of the fact
that these little affairs have been in pro-

mouth and placed it in my right hand,
while 1 rung up the fare on the indi-
GATOR with the left 1 then reached
toward the Chinaman for his fare, be-
fore returning the change to the lady.
To my surprise the Monaghan, with his
thumb and foreffnger, picked dirty
looking nickle from his right ear and
placed it in my hand. Without think
ing, gave this to the lady, and, woman
like, she paid no attention to the
nickeps condition, but put it in her
mouth. Now, that was mere habit.
Several passengers had good laugh at
her expense, but she never knew what
they were laughing about. Had she
done so, am sure she would have be-
come deathly sick, for l myself inn
agined smelled opium all day long"
The conductor vouched for the truth
fulness of the Chinaman's carrying his
fare in the small cup-like part of the
car Below the cavity or entrance to the
drum. He also stated that he had
known cases of persons poisoned from
the dirt off coins, especially pennies,
which are made of a composition the
greater part of which is copper. The
conductors themselves often get sore
hands in handling change. To- show
that poisonous matter accumulates on
coins, the conductor exhibited the lin
ing of one of his pockets, which had al
most been eaten through.
Now, if it will eat fabric" said he,
what must it do to the flesh, especially
if you hold the coins in your mouth ? I
tell you, parents should break their
children of this habit.
Just for curiosity, when you ride in
car, watch what women and children
do with their fares. The habit is not
so strong with men; but I have even
seen them mouth a Nickel as we call
it. 1 know some conductors who will
not take such money, unless the passen-
ger wipes the coin. Baltimore Ameri-

ing hands with young man who had rushed
across the road TO accost hcr, and who was
uttering loud CALCULATIONS Of astonishment and
Joy. It was indeed day of many meetings,
and Chris had good reason to wish that she
had curbed her appetite for fresh air and ex-
ercise Neither Of her previous encounters
had deprived her Of her presence of mind;
but when she found herself face to face with
Gerald Soverne, whom she had supposed to
be shooting grouse in the Highlands, she be-
came for some reason or other, confused and
abashed; and her embarrassment was SO
painfully apparent that he became in some
measure infected by it.
"You didn't expect to see me here, sup
pose, Miss Compton," he said, almost apollo
getically. -.....

autographed for me, without compunction.
Rather hard lines, / think at least I thought
80 until a moment ago. But how do you
come to be in Paris at this time of the year"
Then for the first time he became aware OF
Val Richardson, and Chris-somewhat unnec-
essarily, perhaps, introduced the two men to
one another. Gerald's countenance fell per-
ceptibly when he heard the name of the
stranger, to whom he raised his hat without
Offering his hand. A rather disagreeable in
terval of silence ensued, which Val broke by

"What do you moan?' asked Chris, anx-
iously. "Oughtn't to havo told him that
had run aWay?"
Val laughed. cit was scarcely prudent,
was it2 Not that complaint on tho con-
trary, am rather disposed TO rejoice. Only,
you see, there are now two men who have
met you here with me, and one OF them has
been told that we arc engaged. While the
other is under the impression that we IRE
either married already or about to be mar
ried Immediately. 1 don't know whether
that is exactly what you would wish"
"Ohr eXclaimed Chris, standing still and
elasping her hands; edo you really think that
is Mr.. Severnes impression? But why shauld
that bc?"
Because, my dear Chris, you couldn't
have told him SO much more plainly. He saw
you walking with mo; he heard from your
bwp lips that you had left your aunt's house,
and that everybody would soon know why
5ou had done so; added to which he was
begged not to mention that you were in Pris.
What construction would any intelligent hui
man being be likely to put upon such facts
and statements as these?'
Chris turned white. "I never meant it,"
was all that she could say. "I thought it was
best to tell him the truth. I was afraid he
might write to Lady Barnstaple, and he
seemed to think it odd that should be with
you, and wanted him to understand that
had only met you by chance"
'But unfortunately that was not what you
said, and l will venture to assert pretty posi-
lively that his belief was what stated it to
be just now"
"At any rate" observed Chris, with long
| sigh, che promised not to tell any one that he
had seen u.s."
Eyes; but I doubt whether you can rely
quite implicitly upon his discretion, or upon
the discretion of the red-bearded man either.
| AS q general rule, people think themselves

cret, and no longer. Your aunt, I should say,
| will be sure to raise hue and cry after you
you will be fortunateif the story doesn't get

that Lady Barnstaple will remain in igno-
rance Of it, Well, then, you know, when she
discusses your escapade with her neighbor
and her son, they will naturally say: Since
you know all about it, there's no harm in our
mentioning that we saw her in the Champs
| Elysees with young man whose attentions
I.appeared to be strictly honorable Don't
look so angry; I'm only trying to make the

all, there's an easy way of putting chattering

remarkinS. "Wel, Chris, we ought to be
moving on, suppose; there isn't great
deal Of time to spare"
If man addresses q lady to whom he is in
no way related by her Christian name, only
one deduction can be drawn as to the footing
upon which he stands with regard to her,
and Gerald Severnc drew it. Great as his
distress and disappointment were. they were
for the moment held in check by his sense of
having committed a gaucherie, and his desire
to withdraw as speedily as possible from COM
pany in which he evidently was not wanted.
He said something, he hardly know what,
bowed, and was about to take to his heels
when Chris, who partly guessed what was
passing in his mind, stopped him.
"Mr. Severne," she stammered, ''as have
met you, perhaps had better say-I mean,
hope you won't think-that is am not stay
ing in Paris. am only passing through on
my way to the SOUTH and everybody will
know all about it soon; only, If you don't
mind, would rather you didn't mention
having seen mo when you are writing to
Lady Barnstaple or Gracie.'
! Geraldhs face grew longer and his eyes grew
larger, as indeed was scarcely surprising
after such speech as that. He was quite
incapable of making any immediate reply;
and Chris won't on desperately: 'The truth
is that have run away from my aupt's
house. 1 had good reason for leaving her,
and I shall write to her in q day or two; but
-But, you underestimate"
! "I quite understand" answered Gerald
very gravely. "Of course shall not think
Of telling any one that I have seen you"
! And without even saying goodbye, he
turned on his heel and was soon out of sight.

cars yesterday as he called attention to

had boarded the car and sat holding be-
tween their lips the pennies or niclzels
for the faro.

worst, because for the past ten years l
have done all sorts of iobs--from being
a superintendent of large canning fac
tory, where mon, women and children
were employed by the hundreds, down to
being a car conductor, and here you have
the opportunity to study life, habits and
characters. NOVEL, want to relate to
you an incident which came under my
observation, and which was simply a
case of habit, and, when 1 finish, you,
of course, will say 1 have told a false
hood, or exaggerated simple incident;
but it is the truth.
"One day last.week 1 managed to get
a standing load at the Lexington Mar
ket going north. Naturally, every body
wanted a seat, and space was at a pre-
MUM. In the corner sat a handsomely
dressed lady, who seemed somewhat eX-
cited and nervous, because of the jostle
and her inability to obtain sufficient
room to work her elbows and put on her
gloves, which she held in her hand
However, as l forced to the front of the
car l noticed she placed dime between
her lips and began to pull on her gloves
Beside the lady sat a small con-
umptivelooKing Chinaman, clinging
| to q market basket almost the size of
himself, and his almond eyes gave
sheepish chances at the lady as she &C.
casionally jabbed him in the ribs. Well,
