SANTA FE, N. M., Jan. 9.--At q meet ing of the county commissioners today J. B. Mayo, president of the board, was appointed to go to New York to confer with the owners of the bonds voted in aid of the Santa Fe Southern road with regard to funding same. There is claim ed to be some defect in the old bonds, and the company wants them refunded, thus practically renewing them, but the county refuses to act unless 1t receives assurances that the road will be extend- ed from the city to the south end of the county into the Cerrillos and San Pedro coal and mineral fields. It is thought the New York conference will harmon ize all differences and result in an ex- tension of the road.

1t was a case of chicken stealing and the

prosecution was one who, if he had been
Napoleon Bonaparte, never would have crossed
the Alps; he would simply have pulled them
up by the roots and thrown them over the
paling. The prisoner was an unknown tramp
''You say you don't know anything about this
theft?'' queried the lawyer, fercely.
That's what swore to, SIR" said the tramp,
meekly.
"You were in the back yard Of Mrs. Slamtipp's

"Yes sir

"You were seen on the road in front Of the

Female Children Are Killed or in Vast
Numbers.
From the Yankee Blsde.
In China tens of thousands Of recentlv born
girls among the poorer classes are thrown out
to perish. and at Shanghai 1 saw a tower for
merly used TO facilitate this infanticide. 1t is
practiced in every part of China. but espe-
ciaily in the interior and in the Loess district.
As soon as We get many miles from the coast
it is quite usual to see near a joss house, or
place of worship. small stone tower from ten
to thirty feet high. with no door, but a hole in
one side reaching into pit in the center. The
children that parents wish to be rid Of are
thrown into this hole and quicklime soon con-
sumes the hfeless little forms.
1t is said that the priests take charge of this
cruel work. Ii has been estimated that every
year 200. 900 female babies are brutaIly slaugh-
tered in the empire. One Chinaman being
Intercepted about the destruction of his re-

In every large city in China there are
asylums for the care Of orphans, supported
and conducted by foreigners. who save yearly
from slaughter tens Of thousands of female
infants. At Hankow. which is 600 miles in
land. | visited Roman Catholic orphanage
for children that have thus been cast out to
perish. Mother Paula yismara. the lady
superior of this institution. informed me
that she had received seven that day. and on
one day thirty were brought in. OF course
these had never been consigned to q baby
tower.
Sometimes they are found wrapped in paper
and left at the edge of the river; sometimes thew
are buried alive by tie father but while vet
living are dug up BY some one else and brought
TO this institution. Several women are en-
ployed BY the mother superior in looking about
for the little victims.
Upward Of thousand are received every
year. Many of them. of course die after the
exposure and neglect they have suffered through
being abandoned. and many are boarded out by
the institution in the town.
This is an italian charity and one Of the most
estimable in China. During the twenty-three
years of its existence it has saved the lives Of
from $4,000 to 900 children Of whom q fair
proportion have grown to womanhood. 1t re-
ceives considerable support from the European
residents at Hankow.
Those children who remain within the prem
ises of the institution are fed and clothed, and,
when old enough. taught to sew. make lace.
knit stockings and do other useful work.
