How to Talk Very Interestingly.

If any simple thing pleases you, say II

it annoys you, call it perfectly awful"
or "horrid." If it amuses you, call 1t
lawfully funny" If it is pretty, call it
perfectly beautiful" If you like per-
son, declare that she is "just too lovely
for anything" or that he is "just too
splendid for anything" Make it gen.
eral rule to say lawfully" or perfect
ly" whenever you mean rather or con-
siderably or very. In short, use the
strongest words you can think Of ON all
occasions. You will soon find that peo-
pie will care very little about what You
say, and will only listen to you when
politeness compels them to.

their skill. The participants were
not embarrassed by excess of cloth
ing, and their muscles showed well
the effect of much exercise.
Tired and weary, We turned home
ward. In the plaza we stopped at a
neat adobe house for a cooling drink
of water. The occupants insisted
we come in and enjoy few refresh
ments. How delightful the cool Of
the inner room How comfortable
the depths of an easy! Our host
would not bid ms farewell until we
had partaken of their noon meal.
After prolonged farewells, we left
the small scene of what appeared to
be n prominent festival. We carried
with us a different idea of hospital
ity than what we he'd known be-
fore.
Fishing up the stream, we arrived
at camp, feeling we had seen what
in all probability many of us would
never see again-the original Ameri-
can Indian.
Another day was spent at this
place, the monotony broken by vari-
Gus visits and the novelty of hunting
mountain specimens.
We were relieved on the third
evening by the return of the other
members of the party with the unfor-
tunate wagon. Our joy was a little
clouded by the story of their weary
journey. For several miles one was
compelled to walk before and select
the way for the patient team TO &c.
Early next morning, with the
teams headed homeward, we began
to retrace our weary way. The
days excessive warm reached rag
ing heat in the canons. Slowly but
wisely we assembled and descended
the dangerous way which our pre-.
vious acquaintance had shown to be
best. Noon found us at our old
camping ground, regretting nothing
but our slow progress. Two O'Clock,
on the way and by constant travel
ing we reached the summit of our
highest mountain, where the tents
were spread for the nights rest.
We descended the mountain slow
ly the next morning and by 3 O'Clock
were again at the village of Mora.
Stopping here for supper, we again
FASTENED on and pitched our tent foi
the last time near Sapello.
This being the last night out, we
spent the time to II o'clock in much
gayety. Under covering for a few
moments we were alarmed by two
would.be troublesome horsemen, but
when they became acquainted will
the strength of the camp they retired
unmolested and molested no one.
BY Q o'clock the next day we were
again comfortable quartered in Las

REPUBLICAN TICKET.
AHoNa THE ROCKIES.

After much preparation, a party OF
fourteen, consisting of men, women
and children, started from Las Vegas
at the early hour of for a weeks
hunting and fishing, near the head
waters of the Rio Pueblo.
Soon the quiet city was left behind
and the dim but ever enlarging view
of the mountains. One familiar oh.
ject remained in view for many
miles, now near, now further away,
but yet its badness was ever appa
rent.
Past the sight of the Montezuma,
over the smooth road, viewing the
adobe homes and giving vent to such
expressions as the passing objects
called forth.
Our beasts of burden being of that
class whose chief characteristic is
ohstInacy, we were not surprised to
have them refuse TO obey the guild
ance of their driver. After much
urging the irrepressible mule refused
to go and his sickness became an oh
ject of concern. Much time was
needed for the simple remedies to
have their effect, and during this
time few of the ladies' visited the
adobe church at Sapello.
Near the small ravine where the
teams rested, was found church of
antique form and numbering some
80 years since its reconstruction
Large in comparison to the number
of scattering houses, yet what more
surprised us was the taste displayed
in their altar decoration. Prostra-
ted upon the floor knelt an old man,
and upon inquiry we found that he
was preparing for that long journey,
from which none ever returns.
Later, we enjoyed the hospitality
of Mexican adobe, and thus re-
freshed, started again. As, d
lance we found a suitable
lunch, under an overh9
near a mountain stream, and all
were glad to be in it.
Alternating valleys and mountains,
sometimes we seemed to be com
pletely surrounded, but by previous
directions we knew the line of tele-
phone wires, if followed, would bring
us to Mora, the county seat of Mora
county.
Entering the town, the view from
the hillside appeared as large
checkerboard; the fields We'd with
each other in their various shading;
the mountain road, the sand and
rocks, glittering with small bits of
mica, were bright spots not soon to
be forgotten.
In Mora we saw few houses but
what were adobe, the court house
being one OF the exceptions. The
narrow streets seemed TO be over.
flowing with natives aud burros.
From Mora could be seen far up the
distant mountain what looked TO be
a silver band of snow, but adventur-
ers lave found it to be mountain
stream, the head waters of the Mora
river.
Soon we found suitable place to
camp; although desiring to go fur
ther, weary beast and tired human
nature refused to go.
Tents were put up, fire kindled and
soon the aroma of boiling coffee
greeted us. Except for a few in.
quisitive Mexicans and the fear they
would become troublesome, the night
passed upeventfully.
The early riser found $3.50 not too
early TO awake the sleepers in camp.

away AiIn"uSH tHc iodu was hob
so rough as the one we had come
over, it was far more treacherous.
When we had gone but a short dis
lance, we wished we were back
again. Twice the occupants of the
vehicle came near meeting with Sc
rious accidents; but our trouble did
not meet a climax until the ill.fa ed
wagon was left again, broken by the
wayside.
A hillside near by afforded us a
resting place for two days, while
two of the men volunteered to re-
turn to Mora to have the wagon re.
fixed, while the rest took advantage
of the stoppage and made friends
of the occupants of the Mexican
adobe. The first evening the callers
numbered four, and we found they
could speak fair English, and the
time was spent pleasantly in singing
the old songs, and we found that
Home, Sweet Home was as full of
meaning TO them as to our English
hearts.
During our short stay we had four
different persons come, bringing
some fruits of the soil, for which
they would take no compensation.
Notwithstanding our trouble, we
attended the feast which was held
about mile and half from camp.
On foot part of the party started,
following the winding road which
led to the small pueblo. From a dis
lance we cold see them having their
chicken race, and, ifrightly Informed,
the fowl is placed in al opening i'll
the groud, nothing visible but the
head, and the horsemen try their skill
in securing it from its Enclosure while
the horse is running at full speed.
When we arrived at the place
we found the streets full Of wagons,
and the street vendors were taking
advantage of this opportunity for
selling their wares. Although our
party were the only Americans, we
felt no fear for our safety nor desire
to join their festivities.
Soon the dancing began and we
were at a loss and fear they were to
know what meaning such perform
could have to them. Their dress
was scarce in quantity, but not lack
ing in ornamentation. Their long
black hair was arranged in such a
fashion as TO retain the feathers and
tin ornaments, regardless of any 9th
err protection for the head. Their
bodies painted in various colorS, red
and green seeming to be their pref
erence. They formed in two paral-
lei lines, facing each other, carrying
in their hands green boughs. The
only orchestra in attendance was
their own mouth organs; its compass
in pitch and tone comprised the
whole range of the human voice.
Two small images, whether idols
or some other symbol Of worship,
were carried among the dancers.
Their skill in dancing seemed to be
to keep time with their own singing.
The step being a slight upper move
ment of the body, gradually advanc-
ing forward.
After the dancing, the whole body
of people moved across the small
ravine along the race track in order
to watch those who wished TO try

who devised the electoral law of that
State under which no one party can
possibly secure all Of the electoral votes
of the State, but must shave them with
the minority. In talking Of the forth

Miner said that the Democrats Of Mich
igan wanted to electthe next President
and were anxious chiefly to find can
didate who could win. The Democ
