RETURN OF MEMORY.

The Strange Case OF q Lady Who Was Ones
Resident of Boston.
A lady who was formerly a resident
of Boston relates singular experience.
She was the widow of Brazilian officer
who had lost his life IN an expedition
sent by the Emperor to investigate q
case Of plague which threatened to be.
come epidemic in a certain part o.
Brazil On the death Of her husband.
finding that the Brazilian Government,
offered her no assistance. she decided
that she could better support and edu-
cate her son IL she returned to Boston,
where she had friends and was known.
She accordingly returned to her native
land, and became q teacher. just as
her son had been put through college
BY the most strenuous efforts on b s
mothers part, his health failed, and the
physicians ordered sea voyage. His
mother was in despair. Just at this
time, how. yer. Dom Pedro was in Bos-
ton Tin 1876, and she was advised to
apply to him for aid, as her husband had
lost his life in the service of the Brazil
ian State. Mrs Louis Agassiz offered
to speak in her behalf to the Emperor,
and time was fixed for an interview.
The widow welcomed any chance Of
help for her boy, but predicted that
nothing would come of the meeting.
THE Emperor will surely speak to
me in Portuguese" she said, ito see if
| am what profess to be- OF course l
spoke the language easily enough when
I lived in Brazil, out for ten years have
not pronounced a word of it, and can
not remem,sr a syllable"
At the appointed time she went to the
hotel and found the Emperor with
several ladies and gentlemen. The
conversation was at first in French. and
she did very we'll; but suddenly and
without warning, Dom Pedro turned to
her and addressed question to her in
Portuguese.
For an instant she looked at him in
silent dismay, utterly unable to say a
word. Then with desperate feeling
that perhaps her sons life hung on her
words she opened her lips almost me-
chanically. and to her surprise quite as
greatly to her relief, she found herself
speaking Portuguese with as much
luency as If it were her native tongue.
In the twinkling of an eye it had all
returned to her, and it is pleasant to be
able to record that the Emperor soon
after sent her word that a passage had
been taken for her and her son on a
steamship running between New York
and South America, all expenses being
paid-Youth's Companion.

serves well of the miners of the south

it is, though small, broad enougi, AMI fair
enough to deal justly by New Mex co and

firms the old rates IN ore from Tres

standing the A., T. & S. F. ore tariff and
says thereof: ut will be noted that from
New Mexican points the rate on the 800

but to counter balance this uniform
rate on the $50 valuation has been de-
clared from all points. From Arizona

Several weeks ago the New MEXICAN
contained an article COMBATING Senator
Platt's idea of congress appropriating
800, 900 TO bring the Koch lymph for use
In the U. S. army, though suggested that
the government could, very properly,
as was its duty appoint a commission to
inspect the claims Of the various Rocky
mountain health resorts and give to the
world official data as to their climatic
advantages and the effects of climate upon
all pulmonary diseases. 1t seems possible
that this idea may be adopted. The sub
ject has been lately revived by the rub.
lication of the views of leading New
England physician. Speaking of it the
Chicago Tribune says:
CDR. William \. Parker, of Salem
Mass, who has made study of con.
sumption and climatology, has decided
that there is no district 80 suited to the
cure of lung diseases as New Mexico ano

CAUGHT IN THE CORRIDORS.

The Las Vegas Optic loves the New
fact that the New MEXICAN is power for
good in New Mexico evidently rifles the
Las Vegas paper. 1t says in its Saturday
issue: Albuquerque is decidedly too
previous. With her accustomed facility
of counting chickens before they are
Matched, and building immense assertions
on the narrowest margin of facts, she has
telegraphed to the Rocky Mountain News
that the capital is to be- moved from SAN
ia Fe to Albuquerque. There is very
little probability of such change being
made. If tile idea comes to he enter
tanned seriously, it will be found that the
territory, outside of Albuquerque, opposes
the change. The New MEXICAN is chiefly
to he blamed for the IDEAS being enter
tanned at all. But when it comes to the
test the Optic thinks that better judy
ment will prevail over the feeling OF per-
sonal resentment which the New MEX
lcAN has kindIed in the mind Of nearly
every public man outside OF Santa Fe."
The Las Vegas Optic, paper that for
some reason or another seems to dislike
Hon. T. B. Catron, is not pleased with
the acts passed by the assembly Offering
a reward for the men connected with the
recent attempt at assassination and says
"rhis seems to the Optic more extrav.
apant than the action already criticised
Evidently, some one might, under this
proclamatio make $25, 900 or $50, 900 by
merely putting the officials on the scent
ultimately leading TO the capture OF the
guilty parties and their accomplices, while
the territory would have all the expense
of capture and conviction. Besides all
this, it is more than doubtful il the legis'
lsture can pass such bill, as it is plainly
special legislation"

A Weather Waif.

The weather prophets have again
"called the turn" correctly. The coolest
weather OF the season--in fact the coolest
in very many years, prevailed at sunrise
this morning. The ground is kept warm
BY blanket Of six inches Of snow, hence
the vegetation is all right, but the atmos.
phere was as chilly as it ever gets in these
parts, being S degrees below zero. Santa
Fe, by reason Of her protected loca.
ton, surrounded by towering noun.
tains, is famous as occupying
a warm nook in the Rockies, and when
1t touches five below here it is safe to say
that it is from five to ten degrees colder
In all other parts of the mountain region.
For instance at Cerrlllos, Springer and
other points the mercury has several
times this winter touched ten below Zero
However, the genial sunshine of this
morning soon knocked the edge off Of
Old Frigidity.

In the meantime here is something on
the other side not from Mckinley
sources. but from official British sources.
The London Financial Times, which will
not be desputet as authority, refers to a
report of the distinguished British consul
at Chicago (also pretty good authority
as follows:
"a recent report from Mr.. HAYS Sad
Ter. the British consul of Chicago, con-
tains some observations on tin and tin
mining which will be Rad with interest,
in view of The new duties which are to be
levied next month on tin plates imported

to the sheets have been imported, and the

fairs 1T appears, is not to last much
longer.
This is a well-studied and accurate state
meut'of fact, given to the British manu-
factuTers for their information on a sub
ject of the highest business Importance to
them. 1t is something more than free

HOME COMPETITION,
That Alone should Govern Prices and
Wages.

Wages.
There is no reason whatever why every
man in the United States should not be
willing 10 pay such rates of wages and
such prices of commodities as shall natur-
ally result from the free and unrestricted
competition of all our own people.
When trade Is between a people perfectly
free, as in this country, there cannot, on
the average and in the long run, be higher
wages paid to those employed in one in
dustry than to those in another. Where
ever any one industry gives indication that
the compensation paid to those engaged in
it is on the average greater than the com
pensation paid in other occupations, the
industry paving the higher compensation
is invaded by men from the occupations
pa ing less, and thus wages constantly tend
to an equalization. This invasion may
continue to a point at which, 10y the over
stocking of the labor market in the favor
ed industry, wages may finally decline TO a
point lower than the average rates prevail
ing in other industries.
Under the democratic policy, if wages
fall in Europe our industries stand In dan
ger OF destruction On the other hand,
while protesting to be the special friend
of the w0rkingman, the democratic party
would set on foot policy which would
render impossible any increase IN the
wages Of our own people
It is sometimes charged as a reproach
against the protective policy that IN scme
special protected industry wages tend to d
minimum. Where this occurs it is an I'm
erring Indication of the vicious distribu-
tion Of industries, and one of the most dis
tressing consequences Of their maladjust-
ment. The remedy indicated IS, not a re-
duction of the tariff, but a wider diversiH-
cation and distribution Of industries, 80
/ that all persons who want employment
NAV not be compelled to seek the same oc-
cupati0n. II is obvious that if industries
/ be relatively few with large numbers Of
men seeking employment, those men must
distribute themselves as best they may,
and without intelligen; adjustment.
among the few industries in operation. II
4 a larger number enter into any special pur-
/ suit than are needed to meet the demand
of production in that pursuit wages will
I inevitably decline. The function OF pro-
tective tariff, carried to the fartherest
limit is to 0bviate the necessity for this.
/ Its tendency Is 10 encourage the establish
ment Of variety Of industries and 80 to
/ increase opportunities for employment not
1 in one or two, bat in the great diversity Of
