We may make the broad asser-
tion that New Mexico is endowed
with greater natural resources, and
IN greater variety than any other
state or Territory of the Union.
This sounds extravagaut and may
be considered as a specimen of
western hyperbole, but it is made
with an entire appreciation of its
full significance, and is well con-
sidered aud deliberate. In reckon
ing these resources, I include
facilities for agriculture and horti-
culture and for the raising Of ami
mails, and all classes of mineral de-
posits, metallic and nonmetalic,
Only one state approaches it in its
natural endowments, and that is
California; and the possession OF
almost limitless beds of coal, both
bituminous and anthracite, give
New Mexico superiority even
over that favored state. If space
permitted, it would be easy to show
the truth of this general state
ment. As it is, l must refer for the
particulars to more extended docu-
ments where each class of product
is discussed separately. The
character of the people, composed
of the solid aud conservative native
element of Spanish descent, in con.
nection with the energetic and
enterprising, but sometimes over
Jealous Anglo-American from the
east, it is especially adapted fol
self-government. By many in the
east the people are looked upon as
foreign, and not in harmony with
American Institutions. Its strange
thst tins suggestion should arise
in land which absorbs half q
million of foreigners every year
and which manages to assimilate
the very worst elements Of Con.
tinental Europe. 1t should be re-
membered that New Mexico was
annexed in 1876, and all of its in
habitants except the oldest wer'
born on American soil, and that it,
people belonged to a sister republi,
with institutions similar to ours
and so were not ignorant of thr
principles of free government. Fo
almost half a century they hav,
been electing their legislatures
making their laws and carrying OF
their local government under th,
American system.-From "Claimi
to Statehood" by L. Bradford
Prince, governor of New Mexico
in North American Review fol
March.

According to an old legend the
baby's dimples mark the spots
where angels fingers touched the
child in bearing it from heaven to
earth, but unromantic doctors have
different explanation. They say
that dimples probably result from
the defective development Of a
muscle. When the muscle is call
ed into use the defective portion
fails to respond, and a hollow is
left into which the flesh and skin,
of the cheek for example, fall, and
thus the dimple is formed.

In North Riding village lived
an elderly man who had been mar-
ried three times, but had been as
often bereaved. After the death of
his third wife, a rumor was circu-
lated as to a fourth wedding. On
being questioned he replied in the
following decisive manner: May,
not sh; what wi marryin' on 'em
and what wi burryin' on 'em, it's
over expensive. All can't afford
it nae mair."

A peculiarity common to rain
in Bermudas, the Windward Is
lands, the Hawaiian group, and
the Alaskan waters is that 1t isn't
very wet. In none of these re-
gions do the natives fear the rain,
aud even foreigners soon come to
know that they take no harm from
being caught out in a storm. 1t
was noted by men on the ships
lately patrolling Behring Sea that
portion of the deck, slightly pro-
tected, dried oat while even in the
midst of a shower, and that wet
clothing hung under a slight shell
ter on deck dried in an atmosphere
apparently saturated by a hard
rain.

The latest thing in the way of
bicycle novelties is something in
the way of a wind shield, designed
to be carried upon the handle bar
of the machine. It is about three
feet by two, is made of transpar-
ent tale, with light steel frame
work, and presents a kind of keel
to the wind when screwed upright
in front of the rider. The invent
or, who is Frenchman, declares
that it adds two or three miles an
hour to ones speed when riding
against a headwind. 1t has the
appearance of a gigantic kite.

An memorable professor of logic
from Russian university, driven
into exile with his fellow Hebrews,
found temporary employment in
New York as the conductor of
street car. Two women got on
one day, and, later, signalling the
conductor, begged to be let off at
different streets. Then the logi-
clan, pausing before his astonished
passengers, said with convictions:
mo, you haf got on together, and
consequently you viii get off to-
gether;" and SO they did.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Joke.

Two young business men OF this city
had considerable fun at the expense OF
the volunteer police force on Thursday
night last, and then the police had con.
siderable fun at the expense OF two
Young business men. In order to con-
ceal their identity we will call them
George Alden and Horace Ingram-but,
of course, that is not their names. They
arrayed themselves in ancient suits and
otherwise disguised themselves, and
after dark they took pains to exhibit
themselves at safe distance from the
policemen, and when approached lodged
most suspiciously into alleys, and out o.
sight. They succeeded in arousing the
copperistic heat and curiosity OF the
guardians of the peace, and they sur
rounded the block -about twenty five
OF them--and succeeded in capturing the
pseudo tramps When brought to the
light and their identity established, theil
part of the joke was finished; but the
other end of it just began. Notwith
standing the mildest and then the wild
est protests they were hurried to the
lookup, and they were shut in with thu
sure-enough lamps. They were per
mitted to langiish in the bastile for al
hour, when they were released. They
have ever since been trying to figure out
which end of the deal had the best end Q
