THE PE0Os ROAD.

From the New Mexican.
Through the efforts Of Nessrs. j. J.
Hagerman and Chas. b. Eddy, of the
Pecos Valley Irrigation and Improve
ment company, bonds to the amount
of 5000, 600 have recently been placed
in New York and London for the ex-
tension Of the Pecos Valley railroad
northward from Eddy.
This gratifying news the New Mexl-
can is pleased to have the exclusive
privilege Of laying before its readers
to-day.
AS at present agreed upon, the
work Of constructing the new line will
begin at Eddy within the next two
months, and the first of the new diyls-
ions will bring the road to Uhe now
town Of Hagerman, on the Rio Foliz.
in Chaves County, sixty miles north of
Eddy. Thence north the road may
take one Of three different routes to
reach connection with the A.. II. s.
s. f. main line in San Miguel county,
not far from where the Santa Fe
crosses the Rio Pecos. The junction
will be at Bernal station, some thirty
miles south Of Las Vegas. Bernal is
from 225 to 2G0 miles north of Eddy,
dependent upon the route which the
new road adopts. 1t will have choice
Of three good routes in reaching this
northern connection, Que up the Rio
Pecos, another via White OAKS and
another taking medium course be-
tween the two.
At all events, it is the intention to
have the line finished and in operation
within eighteen months to Bernal
station. A feature Of the deal con-
templates even a much larger enter
prise, as under the agreement with
the POcos Valley road the A., II. & S.
f. proposes to extend its Gulf, Colo
RADIO & Santa Fe line from San An
gelo, Texas, 100 miles westward to
Peeos City, there to tap the the south
ern terminus Of the Pecos line, this
extension to be finished by the time
the junction at Bernal is made.
Under this arrangement and BY this
Western liberal. (Lordsburg, N.M.) 1887-1919, 1893-03-10

new construction the Santa Fe will
give Galveston and southern Texas,
strange as it may seem, a new route
to California and the Pacific coast
that will be nearly 300 miles shorter
than any existing line.
This announcement Of the plans aud
purposes OF the Pecos Valley and San
Ia he roads may be relied on as au-
thentic.
For some months past there has
been rumor that the Pecos road would
extend northward to tap the A., II. s.
S. L. at or near Albuquerque, but
such is not the case; it is not the
northwest traffic that is sought for in
this instance, as many have been led
to believe, but the northeast and
southeast tranic, the idea being to
concentrate the same over the main
line Of the A. & p routes, while at
the same time providing the Pecos
country with a through line and Civ
ing the south and gulf country a near
er route to the Rocky mountains and
the Pacific coast.
In this connection It is but fair to
state that from Bernal the Pecos road
will reach Las Vegas, and the Mead
ow City will really be the northern
terminus Of the new line.
In concluding its article the New
Mexican can not refrain from saying
that to the energy, the pluck and fore
sight of Mr. j. J. Hagerman and Hon.
Chas. B. Eddy all honor and credit is
due for bringing to New Mexico this
splendid Improvement
Five years ago these two men found
the lower Pecos country n barren
waste. Proceeding upon the prlnci-
pie that "water is king they have
since converted Eddy into a semi
tropic garden, ana have expended
$1,000, coo in water, farm and railroad
undertakings. How successful they
have been IS Indicated by the fact
that farm and fruit lands worthless
when they took hold at Eddy are to-
day eagerly sought Tor at $50 to $50 per
acre.
Within a year they have extended
their operations up the river toward
Roswell, in Chaves county, and are
now investing 100000 ia water stor-

A BEAUTIFUL TABLE.

A. H. Van Antwerp in the New Mexican.
l had the great pleasure Of seeing
the table that Santa Fe county has
bad made, which is to be a part Of the
territorial exhibit at the Worlds fair.
1t was on exhibition for the FIRST time
at the governors reception. 1t is
truly an objet dart in Its fneness Of
of workmanship, beauty Of design and
delicacy of structure. 1t was designed
and manufactured in Santa Fe, by a
Santa Fe workman-artist is better
word-and made of materials taken
exclusively from Santa Fe county.
1t stands about three feet high and is
supported by four convoluted legs, Of
brightly FURNISHED copper taken from
the mines at San Pedro. As they
curve gracefully inward, there is a
miniature fruit dish Of silver also
from San Pedro, with a representation
in silver Of the fruit grown in Santa
Fe county. Where it is held up by
the legs, there are four pieces Of onyx.
There is a handsome frloze or en-
tablature an inch and a half wide
around the edge of the top Of the ta-
bic. This frleze is Of open work and
has eight pieces Of silver set IN at in
tervals, which are engraved with rep
resentations Of the mining and agri-
cultural industries Of the territory
The top of the table is the chef-d'oeu-
vre, made up Of silver flagree work
surrounding the territorial seal in
gold in demi-relief. Inlaid in the
four corners are triangular pieces of
petrifed wood, between which, at the
sides, are inlaid highly polished
squares Of gold bearing quartz. The
silver fllagree work is in the form Of
fans, around the edge of which are
some fine specimens of turquoise set
in gold; around the seal are a number
Of garnets, found at TesuQue. These
are beautiful gems, superior to the
Arizona stone, inasmuch as they arc
lighter colored and much clearer.
The old church Of San Miguel, the
capitol building as it was before Il
burned, the governors palace and a
view of the Tesuque pueblo are done
in demi-relief in silver, in a most life
like manner. ] am safe in saying that
there viii not be 4 more unique cxhib-
it at Chicago, where there will be so
many objects worthy of note. 1t VIII
speak for itself. Whoever has charge
of cur exhibits will doubtless be glad
to dwell upon the merits of this love
ly bit Of work, and can point with
pride TO it as work Of our own art
lists. The action of Santa Fe county
is thoroughly worthy Of being emu
lated and followed 10y the other coun-
tries in the territory, squirting them
on to renewed Efforts to each make in
dividual exhibits which shall rebound
to their credit, and in that way to the
credit Of the territory AZ large. 1t is
to be sincerely hoped that Santa Fe's
action will bear rich FRUIT. Nj T. w.
Wientge deserves great praise for his
efforts, as the design and manufac-
ture are both his.

CHAPTER III.
"What is love worth, pray9"
Worth a tear.'-SWinbUrne


After that day Stuart Maulrever and
Cora Tresillisn were almost always to-
gerher.
They drifted into that frank, careless
intimacy into which people do drift who
suit each other and like each other too
we'll to think of consequences. Jack
Standish had been right when he said
Cora had made a hero OF Manlrever in
her childhood days, and that fact in a
measure accounted for her prediction
in his favor now.
at is refreshing to find some one who
can talk sense" she would say II Jack
ventured to hint that Maulrever monop-
lized all her attention, and her cousin
took himself and his wounded amour
propre to another shrine. He was very
fond Of Cora, but he did not relish her
total indifference 10 his by no a
small attractions. he thought some
times he would give his aunt a hint, and
then again he feared that any remon-
STRANGE might incense her daughter and
bring about the very mischief he wished
TO avoid. He was very uncomfortable
altogether, and grew so uncertain in his
moods and temper that Cora began to
notice the change and rallied him mis-
chievously on its cause. She never for
one moment attributed it 70 herself.
Her parents had never limited at their
wishes, and Jack himself had always
felt sure that when he felt inclined he
had only ito ask and to have" Perhaps
this fear that had come to him OF late
had done him good-hsd aroused some
genuine feeling on his part in place OF
that serene indifference with which he
had looked 10 the future that was 70
link his cousins fate TO his.
In any case he was seriously ag-
grieved, and the change soon made it
self known to Stuart Maulrever. He
had always liked the young fellow, and
he knew that Cora had been destined for
him. He did not consider Jack worthy
of hee, but then, as he told himself with
a lazy shrug of his handsome shoulders,
he knew no one else who was, and, after
all, If a woman's life was safe and
placid, it was infinitely better for her
than if she INDUCED in romantic fan
cies.
He began to allude to Cora's future as
q thing assured, and to praise Jacks
good qualities, and she listened to him
with \ strange pain at her heart aud
wondered sometimes what he meant.
Cora and Col. Maulrever sat together
at q morning concert in Park Lane,
given by some wealthy dilettante. who

world would have none Of her, and she
laid the blame on him.
Quite suddenly she left the shelter OF
his roof, declaring she would go back to
her old life Of the stage-the life he so
disliked and despised. He had written
to his lawyers, biddidg them make her
an allowance, and then without fare
we'll they parted, and he returned to
India, full of rage and Indignation at
her conduct.

fair face mel his gaze once more, when
the passionate cadence OF that voice
thrilled to his soul, Weakening the old
rapture with the sharpness OF a new re-
greet.
The world who knew him, the world
to whom he was only "Mephisto," would
have laughed to scorn the idea OF his
holding one tender or faithful memory
Of womanhood; but the world knows lew,

from her seat and faced him there in

moned to the man who had been the
hero of her dreams-the husband and
wife who for long years OF estrangment
and misunderstanding had stood apart
and suffered in silence and in pride.
They looked al each other silently
and long. The eyes cannot lie, and soul
spoke out to soul OF sorrows and weari-
ness and remorse.
There was no need of words. Not

to her eyes. Not then, as the great
light OF love and welcome leaped into
