The Old Reliable.

The New MEXICAN is informed by q
friend who lately returned from the east
that such is the name given by common
consent to Wizards hotel in Washing
ton, under the proprietorship of o. G.
Staples, esq. The reputation and cele-
brity of this hotel is world wide renowned,
and the patrons who have long made
their occasional headquarters at Wizards
say that its management, under Messrs.
Staples & Frost, has never been excelled
and rarely equalled, and that the table is
marvellous, and the new arrangement and
refurnishing of its spacious dining room
has rendered it perfectly palatial. 1t was
noticeable that of the hundreds of English
clergymen in attendance upon the Melho-
dist convention lately held at the national
capital, many not only expressed the
opinion that the American form of gov
eminent was the best in the world, but
that they were delighted with American
hotel life.
If fortune directs the steps OF any OF
the New MExIcAN's readers east
ward during the approaching session of
congress they should take occasion to
improve the opportunity Of judging for
themselves, unless they should tie up to
the refurnished Hotel Riggs that is now
also under the management of Mr.. Sta

take this opportunity OF stating that the
solicitor general has not been in the habit
of asking my concurrence in any of his
opinions; consequently Twitchell, j., has
not concurred. The editorial is the first
intimation to me that any such opinion
was given; that there ever was any such
sum of money in any such fund, or that
the judiciary had been paid dollar out of
the same. The fact is [ know nothing
about it, and l care less. Most officials
have burdens of their own sufficient for
ordinary mortals and the humble district
attorney of the LIST judicial district does not
willingly care to pose as an Atlas and
carry around on his shoulders world

guished. To be candid, I have found it
sufficiently onerous to secure my own sal.

that very laudable undertaking. Yours

GEN. THOMAS A. VINCENT.
A Member OF Gen. SchOfieId's STAFF on q
Visit to Santa Fe.-A Gallant
Soldiers Record.

Gen. Thomas A. Vincent. U. S. A., is
guest at the Palace to-day. The gentle
man holds the important position Of as
sistant adjutant general of the army and
is on duty at Gen. Schotield's head,
quarters in Washington city. The object
of his trip is to make inspection of the
southwestern military posts and while his
visit here has no special significance from
an official stand point, yet the general is
receiving many cordial greetings at the
hands of Santa Fe citizens. He will
spend the day here and leaves tonight
for Ell Paso where the new post there will
be inspected.
Gen. Vincent is native of Ohio and a
graduate of the West Point military
academy. He entered the army in 1853
as I'd lieutenant of the I'd artillery and
served through the war, coming out with
most honorable record. He was pro-
NOTED to be captain of the 18th infantry
May IA, 1861, and declined, but accepted
the position of captain and assistant adju-
tant general in August of the same year.
After years service he became captain
of the I'd artillery, later became lieutenant
colonel and colonel, and March ID, 1865,
was brevetted brigader general for his
admirable service in the army. For ten
years past he has been connected with
the adiutant generals department, and ii
is not saying too much to assert that to
his energy, experience and perseverance
is due much of the present efficiency Of
the army.
Gen. Vincent is especially entitled to
credit for the solution of the artesian well
question in the southwest. When
stationed in Texas years ago he became
convinced that artesian water could be
developed at many points in the state
and his recommendations to the war de
partment on the subject attracted such
attention as to prompt many private clti'
zens to undertake this method of water
development, and the general himself ex
pended his own time and money in s
practical solution OF the problem. 1t was
his work that has resulted to-day in dot
ting Texas with artesian wells.

SANTA FEE, N. M, Nov. Pain your
published report of the county commits

sion, you stated that 1891 were allowed
to be paid the county superintendent of
public schools for travelling expenses. I
beg to inform you and the public that I
have not charged the school funds with
my travelling expenses; had l done 30, l
should have charged much larger sum
than 500 10, having travelled to various
school districts much more frequently

charged in the bill and allowed for my
expenses in supplying the necessary sta
tionery for the office.
Should the county commissioners, with
the advice of the county attorney, deem
1t just and lawful to pay my travelling ex-
penses, l will gladly hand in my bill and
accept with thanks the refunding of the
cash advanced. Very respectfully,
P. j. SCHNEIDER,
County Superintendent.
