WATERS OF DEATH.
The Rio Grande Claims Another Vie
tim in the Person of j. Pla-
edo Romero.

| j. Placido Romero was drowned in tbs
Rio Grande, near Los Lunas, night before
last. On Thursday he crossed the river
from Peralta, his home, and spent the day
at Los Lunas, drinking heavily. He
started home at 1870 p. IN. Friends pro-
tested, but he insisted in entering his
ambulance and set out for Peralta alone.
He crossed the bridge over the Rio
Grande all right. On the east side of the
bridge the road forks, one branch going to
Tome, the other to Peralta. II is sur
missed that the unfortunate man, who was
on the right road to his home, supposed
he was on the Tome road, and turned his
horses to the left, which brought him
toward the river. There was small
branch to cross, which, as shown by the
marks in the ground, one of the horses
hesltated to enter. Across this branch,
the deep channel of the river has now
entered, and the animals had near
ly gained sand bar in the
center of the stream and out of
the deep water when the fatal
spot was reached. When discovered one
of the horses was drowned and lying be-
meath the water, the other was standing
up in the water and still attached to the
ambulance, which was upset. The reins
were twisted around tho legs of the
drowned horse. The body of Mr.. Romero
was nowhere to be found. Searching
parties have gone out from Los Lunas
and Peralta, and Gro this, possibly, the
body has been recovered.
This death has caused great sorrow all
along the Rio Grande valley. The de,
ceased was one of Valencia county's most
wealthy and influential citizens and leaves
a wife and fifteen children, aside from
large circle of friends, to mourn his death.

The editors of Tie Century have
learned. since it was printed in that
magazine for March. that the interest
ing account by Capt. USHER OF ..Nspo-
Icons Deportation to Eliza was very
obscurely printed in Dublin in pamph-
let-form in 1871. 1t must have had a
very small circulation, and, in fact.
when the manuscript was submitted to
me Centurg. the family were not aware
that any copy of the pamphlet was in
existence, nor that it was the same ma
ttrial. as they had merely heard that
Capt User had once printed y brief
account of the trip. as they believed for
private distribution only. It's publica-
ton this month has brought into prom
lnence very valuable and veIy little
known historical document. In the
magaz ne the journal is accompanied
bv sketch and portrait of Capt.
Usher and an interesting frontispiece

CELLAR WINDOWS.

Keep all the cellar windows open and
allow the air to circulate. but use
screens on the windows and doors in
order to keep out intruders, mice. rats,
cats, and later on insects. The cellar
should he kept in neat condition. De-
caying vegetables should be promptly
removed and all plants as soon as the
weather permits. Use plenty of white
wash on the walls.
TOMATO PLANTS.
A large grower of tomatoes has
found the following plan OF raising
plants all that can be desired: He rolls
strips OF resin paper into cylinders three
inches in diameter aud six inches deep,
locking the ends by driving two tacks
through the paper and clinching them
on pIoce of iron pipe as an anvil or
block. These bottomless cups are ar
ranged in the frame and filled with soil
in which the seed is planted. When the
plants are ready to set out they are
large and well rooted and are trans
planted with the cylinder around them.
This is slipped up so as to project three
inches above the ground and make an
obstacle over which cut worms will not
climb, and so the danger is evaded, as
well as all risk of checking the growth
by transplanting. He has set out plants
already in Misconceptions any check
by means of this device.
