The mysterious boarder generally
turns out to be the foolish woman
who seeks seclusion while her hair is
undergoing the process of bleaching.
The farmer never takes you for a
drive when he goes down to the sta
ton after his fresh milk and butter.
If the country boys come and stare
at you in wonder when you're fish
ing in the creek, don't you be sur
prised that you never get bite, for
that's sure sign there are no fish
there.
1t is hard to be polite to the pretty
boarder's aunt, who has habit Of
getting you into corner of the YER
anda and speaking for hours upon
the condition of her liver.
The nervous man who gees to the
country for rest is always made to
room with the fiend who has brought
his flute and cornet along.
The owner of the house thinks
that helping him harvest his crops is
better exercise than climbing the
mountains.
The farmer treats his city cousin
as one Of the family, and soon breaks
him into doing chores around the
house.--N. Y. Sun.

LITTLE MEMS. FOR The SUMNER
BoARpER.

AS ignorance is bliss, don't try to
find out where the farmer gets his
fresh provisions.
The only one of the boardors who
doesn't get tanned enough is the
mischievous small boy.
When it is all over you are sorry
you didn't treat the pretty boarder to
country store candy instead Of send
ing to the city for bon bons.
You are more apt to find the run
ming water in your room when it is
raining.
just because the farmers pretty
daughter waits on yon, don't think
that she will let YOU wait on her.
You find that most things around
the farm house are home made, cX-
cept the butter.
You mustn't think that the AR
agrees with you and that your appe.
tite is improving just because you
are always still hungry after dinner
is over.

be printed in his paper and his orders
were obeyed. The Albuquerque Dem

less of the feelings of the broken

DENVER 4 Ell PAso SHORT LINE.
Some Facts About the Proposed
Road and the Resources of
the Country.

Yesterday in a short interview
with Mr.. Ropes, the engineer of the
Denver d Fl Paso Short Line rail
road, we obtained the following in
formation from him as to the country
lying between here and FL Paso and
its resources and what they will fur
nish toward the business of rail
road when built. Mr.. Ropes has
made a trip over the entire distance,
looking up the natural resources, and
is fully convinced that there is no
part of New Mexico that is richer
naturally than this section. He is
now busy making up his report,
which will be full and comprehen-
sive, going into all details as to the
business that can be worked up. An
idea of how much pains and care
have been taken can be had when we
state that it will make over 100 pages
of typewriter matter
Starting out south from Las Vegas
there is very good country to An
tonchico, where the line surveyed
leaves the Pecos and heads towards
tho Gallinas mountains, through the
poorest part Of the country it is to
traverse; but though it is apparently
so poor it furnishes good deal of
the money that comes into the terri
tory, as between the Pecos and Rio
Grande there Craze about 100000
head of sheep, besides many thous.
and head of cattle.
In the southern part Of this plain
are the celebrated salt lakes, that
furnisl immense quantities of salt,
which is hauled in wagons over
nearly the whole territory. Stock
men send here from long distances
for the salt, which Is easily shoveled
up by the wagon load. 1t is esti-
mated that over 200 tons a year are
hauled from these lakes. So far it
has only been used for stock pur-
poses, but there is much of it that
could be manufactured into the bet
ter grades of salt
After crossing these plains the line
strikes the Gallinas mountains, which
are covered with fine pine and spruce
timber. 1t is estimated that there
can easily he obtained from these
mountains 100, 100000 feet of lumber
and 100000 ties. The trees are very
large, some measuring three feet in
diameter. In addition TO timber
these mountains are rich in silver and |
copper ores.
Just south of the Gallinas are the
Jicarrilla mountains, which are noted |
as having the richest placers ever
discovered. They are too far from
a good water supply to be used to
but capt. lists are at
present looking over the field and
may carry water to the placers before
long. At present, in addition to the
drawback of costing heavily to get
water supply, the cost is great deal
higher on account of all supplies and
to be hauled over 100 miles
by team. If the proposed railroad
was constructed it would be only a
short time till these placers would be
worked. Besides the placers the
Jacarillas have immense beds of the
finest iron deposits, in places 25 feet
thick and of a quality that is in de-
nand for fuxing use by smelters.
These deposits can be mined and
oaded right on the cars, as they lie
light beside the surveyed track.

MY shoes being little tight, had
just pulled them off, and they were
hanging on the tips OF my toes. The
first bomb that exploded in the side of
the car, tore them to smithereens. After

been fired, two robbers came into
the car. One was about six feet tall
and the other was about five feet seven
or eight inches. They wore pieces of
cloth over their faces, and their cloth

There was not very long interval be-
tween the death of w. HI. Wilson and
that of his great stallion, Sultan, which
died yesterday. Sultan was foaled at
Sunny Slope, in San Gabriel valley, Los
Angeles county, and was sold some time
ia 1883 by L. j. Rose. who bred him, to
Mr.. Wilson for $4,000. A year later
that gentleman sold one-half of him for
$4,000. He was one of the greatest
horses that ever stood for service in this
state, but did not achieve much after
leaving this coast. Sultan has twenty
five in the 2:3O list, of which seventeen
were foaled in California, the best being
Stamboul, 2:1l, and Alcazar, 2:20.
