A number of specimens Of the pear
slug (selandria cerasi) were also exhibit
ed, some dead and some alive. On one
leaf was the slug busily engaged in eat
ing, and near him his old skin, which he
had discarded during the afternoon.
Interesting discussion ensued on varl-
GUS topics. The cultivation of peanuts
was strongly advocated, Mr.. Morton stat
Ing that the variety called the game
cock" was the finest for market. 1t ap-
peared that number of the members
were experimenting with this culture this
year and that the plants in all cases were
looking we'll.
The subject of nuts was then taken up,
and the varieties of almonds were dis
cussed at some length. The finer soft
shell kinds succeed well in more southern
parts of the territory, but do not prosper
in Santa Fe. The lXL variety was spoke
of as very promising. The hard shell
variety grow very vigorously here. Sc
much so that Governor Prince has had tt
cut down all his trees but two, because
they occupy so much room, but the nu
is not desirable for market. VI
the subject OF Mediera nuts, or English
walnuts, it was agreed that in this local
ity the ordinary does not begin to bea
until ten years old, and the pr~parturien
at seven years.
The discussions then turned successive
ly to winter wheat, tobacco and water
cress and continued until late hour
many valuable facts being presented
The meeting finally adjourned to Tuesda..
evening, September s, at the same place
with the understanding that there SHOULD
be meeting in Albuquerque on tn
evening of September Is.

HORTICULTURAL INTERESTS.
A Highly Satisfactory Meeting Last Night
The New Mexico Association
to be Recognized.

The New Mexico Horticultural associa-
ton held an interesting and instructive
meeting at the governors Office last even
ing. President Boyle was in the chair,
and nearly all of the members present
brought some specimens for exhibition.
This meeting was held with special
reference to the increase of the efficiency
and usefulness of the society. 1t was
felt that horticulture was rapidly becom-
ing such an important branch OF industry
in New Mexico that it was very i'm
portant that those devoted to it should
meet at frequent intervals and by an In
terchange of experiences and the exhibit
ton OF specimens of various fruits, espe-
cially of new varieties, increase the gen.
eral stock of knowledge, and save both
time and money to those engaged in fruit
culture and kindred pursuits. The roll
call showed membership of about
seventy, but it is believed that at least 300
members can easily be obtained, and the
secretary was directed to prepare Cir
cular to be sent to horticulturists all over
the territory. While such societies are
of advantage everywhere, they are OF far
more importance here, where the condi-
tons of climate and altitude are very diff
erent from those with which nearly all our
fruit growers are familiar, and where con-
sequently the experience gained in ether
localities is of little use. 1t is intended to
hold an important meeting at Albuquer-
que during the fair, and to prepare for an
extensive OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES exhi-
bition to be held in 1892.
Much interest was elected at the meet.
ing by the exhibition Of collection of
specimens of the Goblin moth, which is
such an enemy of the apple. A discussion
followed as to to the hest methods OF de-
stroying these insects, and the president
displayed common piece of sacking,
which he had placed on tree, and which
was full of the moths in all the various
stages of the grub, the chrysalis and the
insect itself. DR.. Andrews gave an inter
esting account of his success in destroy
ing the pests by this simple system OF
cloth traps.

The Alien Act.


That infamous measure hurried through
congress, and ratified without thought,
has been the bane Of New Mexico and
Arizona. The mineral wealth of these
two territories must be phenomenal Ito
have been developed as successfully as it
has, under the burden Of law, that one
is almost lead to believe was concocted
with this view of building up the mining
districts of Colorado at the expense Of
the mining interests, and future of New
Mexico and Arizona. These territories
notwithstanding the depressing influence
Of the alien act, from year to year have
increased their production mineral and
bullion to degree that is a source OF sur
prise to those who have experienced the
difficulties in the way Of securing capital
for development.
The miners of the southwest have it IN
their power through organization to unite
in successful effort to cause the repeal
of an act that invites capital to invest in
Colorado, Montana aud other states, but
forbds its investment in the mines of
New Mexico and Arizona. "Let there be

PRAYED FOR THE COURT.


DEXTER, October 22.-The Foxcroft NUM-
cipal court room was the scene of "a curious
trial on Tuesday. One of those sensational
evangelists, the Rich brothers, was in court
to answer to the charge of disturbing the
meetings at the Gilman school house in San
gerville. Some weeks ago an account of
the Rich brothers peculiar cutting up at the
school house was published. They were re-
solved to force their fantastic theology upon
the quiet peple of that neighborhood. and the
elders were as fully resolved that they
should not. This trial was the outcome of
those stormy scenes. David G. King ap-
peared as complainant, Col. Peaks for the
state, and Willis Rich, per Sc. Jude Brown
read the complaint, and asked the usual
question, Guilty or not guilty?'
Immediately Evangelist Rich plunged
down upon his knees and prayed loudly and
long for the judge, the lawyers, the Gilman
ed brother King. No threats or entreaties
availed to stop him. When at last the trial
proceeded he speedily convicted himself of
being guilty of determined attempt to run
the Gilman worship according to his own
taste and to the decided distaste of the rest
of the neighborhood. Therefore he was
sentenced to be confined 80 days in the coun-
ty Jail while theology should once more be
placed on firm basis In Gilman. However,
the mittimus was suspended, Rich fervidly
promising that he would allow the Gilman
people TO run their own meetings.
These men are well known in this state. A
favorite diversion of theirs is preaching
from high roof ana distributing a cloud Of
tracts to the four winds. A short time ago
they demoralized an Augusta congregation,
and made a tremendous stir In Skowhegan
and other plac es.

The committee on resolutions reported

Appeal from Decisions Of Appraisers
Cooper and Lunt.

New YORK, October pa final reap
praisement hearing was held here today on
the decision of Local Appraiser Cooper and
later of General Appraiser Lunt, upon the
valuation for dutiable purposes of certain
importation of worsted suiting. General
Appraisers Wilkinson. Sharrett and Sharpe
constituted the board before whom the ap-
peal was made. The case involves 81. .OOO, 900
worth Of goods, at present tied up awaiting
the decision. and this case affects the future
importations of $2000O,000 worth of wooden
goods. The firm interested is Herman,
Sternback q Co., but the case concerns all
the importing houses of the country. Ap-
pralser Cooper advanced the goods IA per
cent above the invoice prices, which means
an advance in duty of AZ per cent. This ad-
vance was made on the representation of the
American Woolen Manufacturers Associa-
tion. who claimed the goods were under val
ued ana were sold at price below the actual
price of production. The real question in
the case is what constitutes the market val
ue. Many prominent importers gave testi-
mony. A continuance Of the hearing was
had until Saturday, when the manufacturers
will present their side of the case.
