HE WANTED THE sMUGGLERs AR,
RESTED.

IT want to have two ruffans arrested u
exclaimed a burly German, angrily, as
he rushed into a police station on the
East side the other day.
"What for" asked the Sergeant at
the desk.
Smuggling" was the answer.
"Where are they ?'
Don't know"
"Who are they?"
Don't know"
GLOW do you know they are Snug
glers ?'
''They told me So"
"Tell me all about it,"
"Well, l keep a saloon in Second
avenue. The other night two Spanish
looking men came in, ordered beer and
sat down at a table, on which they
placed two bundles. While they were
drinking and talking one of them steps
over to me and says:
"'Do you know Jacob Spinkelheimer p
Ono said |.
'Then he went back and talked again
with his comrade. By and by he
stepped over to me again and said:
'Sprinkelheimer keeps a cafe in Sec
ond ave-, but l hat his card lost. 1t is
very bad for me- We are two sailors
who, have just landed from Cuba. We
have lot of fine cigars, gran cigars, for
Mr. Sprinkelheimer brought. Pure Ha-
vana, gran! They paid no duty. We
sold lot to Sprinkelheimer on our last
voyage and he fine thing out of them
made. Now we have him lost, 1t is too
bad. Can you help us Must we all
these fine cigars, gram cigars, pure Ha-
vanas, back to Cuba take 1t is too bad.
They are gran and cheap-so cheap"
"Well, just to help them out
"You bought lot of cigars yourself"
broks in the police sergeant.
"That is so.'
"And they turned out to be common
New York tenement house-two-for-
fives," continued the officer.
"Thut is true, my FRIEND" said the
German with a deep sigh. "How did
you find it out %
"And you want them arrested for
smuggling p
"They acknowledged they were snug
glers."
But you bought the Struggled cigars.
Now, you're as much of a smuggler as
they. You must be arrested too"
"Mein Gott," gaspsd the astonished
German, who had not looked at the case
in this light, "what shall l do ?'' Then,
as bright thought struck him, and he
seemed to see a way out of the difficulty,
he said
But they did not smuggle those
cigars after all, sergeant"
"Then you can't have them arrested
for smuggling"
'But can't l have them arrested fol-
swindling me ?''
Not when the bargain you thought
you were making would have swindled
the government"
"Donner und blitzen," grumbled the
beer seller, as he turned away; "that is

Others remain months before decided

because of don't care sort of disposition
without thought as to system to be
followed, or OF what they should do to

themselves up anywhere and breathe the

that very numerous persons in New Mex

AT FORT MARCY.
Col. Pearsoh's First Order--His Military
Record-EverybodyB Busy About
the Post.

The work of getting the quarters at Fort
Marcy in readiness for the use of the
officers and their families and the accom-
mediation of the soldiers is no small task.
When the historic post was abandoned
last spring, it will be remembered, great
haste, for some cause or other, was exer-
cised in gathering up and disposing of all
the effects at public auction. All manner
of useful and convenient articles that the
war department has been years in gather
ing here, we're either carted off to other
posts or condemned and sold, hence the
present work is like establishing a new
post throughout. Every thing has to be
bought anew, Office furniture, stoves, fuel,
axes, shovels, etc., ETC., and as much Of
the needed equipment is also tied up in
the snow between Fort Stanton and the
railroad, it will probably be fully three
weeks before everything about the post
can be got in regulation working order.
Col. Parsons first order was issued on
Sunday and is as follows

this post is hereby established, and the
undersigned, by virtue of rank, as the

adjutant, superintendent of post schools
and acting signal officer. He will be
obeyed and respected accordingly.

Order No. 2 designates LIST Lieut.. E. H.
Plummer as post quartermaster, acting
commissary of subsistence, acting or
dnance officer and acting engineer officer;
also designates the regimental sergeant
mayor, James Ronayne, as sergeant
mayor of the post.
Col Edward 2. Pearson, the new COM
handing officer at Fort Marcy, is native
of Pennsylvania and entered the army as
a volunteer private in company A, 18th
Pennsylvania infantry, April l8, 1861 lone
month later he was commissioned LIST
lieutenant and adjutant of his regiment
and fourteen days later became lst
lieutenant OF the 18th U. S. regular in
fantry.
In August 1862 he bscame captain and
he served through the war with sallantry
and soldierly ability of the highest order,
being brevetted lieutenant colonel, Sept.
l, 1864. May 10, 1881 he became major
of the 2lst infantry and five years later
was made lieutenant-colonel OF the Oath
infantry, serving as such for years
at the frontier posts of New
Mexico and Arizona. Some two
months ago, upon the death of Col. Ofiiey
at Fort Stanton, Col. Pearson was pro-
NOTED to be colonel of the 10th infantry.
He is counted strict disciplinarian, but
very kind and generous to all members OF
his command whenever they come fully
up to the standard of duty in all details.

A Business Hint.

Santa Fe is sadly in need of something
akin to convenient, home-like, comfort
able quarters for health seekers. The adj
vertising this city has received of late as a
health resort is beginning to prove efec-
tive and people are coming here prepared
10 give the climate complete trial, but
many such visitors complain of lack of
accommodations suitable for invalids.
Not few strangers of late have made
Intellectual attempts to find quarters and
have gone elsewhere, either to Las Cruces,
Ell Paso or Albuquerque. This is mat
ter that the citizens should consider well.
If some one could be induced to fit up
suitable apartments, convenient 10 res
taurants or boarding houses, they could
no doubt do very good business in sup
plying furnished rooms to this class of
visitors.
