ton of property, in order to secure 81, 800
towardss erecting a $4,000 school house
for the education of the children Of that

BUN EkO.

Ell Paso and matters are in hard shape
The season is the dryest in eighteen
years. At Ell Paso the summers ex
perience has been bitter one and it is
growing worse daily. On this subject the
Ell Paso Times says editorlaly:
'The water situation gets no better
fast. The supply is not going to improve
either in quantity or quality till-it rains
or SHOWS. A splendid prospect, certainly,
for progressive city like Ell Paso And
we have deliberately come to the concn.
sion that no system of works depending
on the river for it's supply will ever be
able to secure this city against water
famine. The river bed is liable annually
to become a dry alkali plain, and the
water that may come into the wells sunk
in its neighborhood is not apt to he
satisfactory in qualify, even il borntiful
supply could be secured"
1t is only through the establishment Of
water storage reservoirs all along the
lower Rio Grande that the people can
hope to avert such disaster in future.

Timely Observations.

New YORK, Sept. 3.-The American
Druggist says: "a great many people
are giving themselves unnecessary trouble
about the cholera. The disease is only
formidable where inadequate means exist
for graphing with it and in this country
we are fully prepared for it. A deficient
and impure water supply is the primary
cause of its origin in Asia. Dirt, ignor-
ance and warm weather are the principal
transmitters of the disease. Boiling kills
all cholera germs and hence it is well
during a cholera epidemic to boil all
water and milk. Canned goods are also
a safe diet, at such time, if used at once,
on opening, owing to the boiling that they
receive in the process Of being packed,
which effectually sterilizes the contents.
No person mead fear cholera, if he exer-
cises ordinary care in diet, cleanliness
and sanitary surroundings"
