Requires Attention.

To the Editor OF the New Mexican.
Santa Fe, Dec. 5.-Through your col
umns I would call attention of the city
authorities to the fact that several street
culverts about the city are sadly in need
of repair. Some of these have for weeks
been left in a dangerous condition, par
ticularly at the easterly corner of the old
palace building, and on Gaspar avenue,
near the southeasterly corner of the cap
ital grounds. DRIVER.

GOOD ROADS ARE ECONOMY.

Good roads will do more to
increase the value Of farm property
than any other one thing. In a
recent article from gentleman who
had a personal acquaintance with
some of the abandoned farms in the
Eastern states, the writer gave as
one of the prime causes Of their
abandonment and wretched condi-
ton of the roads. We need thor
Oughly to understand that the condi-
tlonot our public roads largely deter
mines the value of our farms. The
grades should in many cases be
remedied. To this there are two OBJ
jcctions-hrst, the expense; and
second, the fact that the change
would in many places place the high
way from 10 to 80 rods from the
buildings.
The first is answered in showing
the extra needless expense incurred
by farmers in hauling loads. This
ITEM alone would very soon pay the
expense of making the change. AS to
the second objection, there would be
a lane or short roadway from the
main highway, which in some
instances might necessitate climbing
a hill, but often not as steep as
many already found on the roads
now in use N. E. Farmer.

other was put up neatly in punches,

other. Curiosity led me to the

AN UNREHEARsED PERFORMANCE.

An amusing scene was recently
enacted at Lille. At the conclusion
of one of his performances Sarbacan,
the conjurer, addressed the audience
as follows: Coming to the sensa-
tional part of the programme, now
propose to decapitate one of the
spectators. Any gentleman who
would like to undergo the operation
is invited to step on the platform
At these words there arose
young man from Armentieres, who,
in fit of jealousy, had quarrelled
with his intended, and ran up the
steps leading to the platform, firmly
resolved in his despair to have his
head cut off. Everything was now
ready for the decapitation, and the
audience sat waiting in breathless
suspense, when suddenly the sweet
heart of the "knight of the rueful
countenance" rushed upon the stage,
exclaiming: mo, Paul You shall
not die" whereupon she clasped her
lover in her arms, and dragged him
with main force out of the booth
This pathetic scene had quite an ex-
hilarating effect upon the specta-

PROTECTING VINES FROM INSECTS.

| have protected my vines of all
sorts for more than ten years past
without the loss of hill when the
prevention was timely applied.
Take equal parts gypsum common
land plaster, such as farmers SOW on
their land and wood ashes dry and
fine; mix well. AS soon as bugs
begin working on the vines, wet
them thoroughly with a sprinkler or
otherwise and Immediately dust the
vines with the mixture, throwing
some around the stalk. busting the
mixture on wet vines causes it to
form slight crust that will stay on
several days. Seldom do l go over
my vines more than three times.
Sometimes have found the bugs
working on the underside of the
leaves then by turning theleaves up
wetting and busting is all that is
needed.
The mixture applied as directed
will protect squash vines even
against the large black bugs. The
mixture is cheap and a good fer
tilzer. | discovered the benefit of
wetting the vines several years since
by busting my vines just after a
shower, and when | found them
crusted thought surely had killed
them, but on the contrary, they
were free from bugs and grew fast

Continued Decline in the Price Of Silver

WAsHINGroH, u. c., June 29.-Secre-
tarv Carlisle received numerous callers
to-day, among whom are many mem
hers of Congress. With all of these
the silver question formed the
principal topic of conversation and
the continued decline of the
price of silver was naturally adyerted
10. The secretary had received a cable
gram stating that the price of silver was
to-day in London 6S3 cents per ounce,
at which rate the silver dollar as bullion
was worth b cents. Nevertheless the
point was Of course apparent that the
purchasing powar of the silver dollar
with silver bullion at 6S3 cents per
ounce was as great to-day as it was
when silver was worth SID per ounce
and the bullion value of the silver was
90 cents. 1t should be equally obvious
that this is SO because it is known that
the credit of the United States
is behind its silver money, as il is be-
hind all Of its other forms Of money,
and without which none of them except
gold coin and gold certificates would
be worth their par value IN
the money markets of the world.

THAT WAR ROMANCE.
Fighting Joe Hooker was Not DRUM
Before Characteristic.

Before thHncelIOrhNIllc.
A great deal Of indignation has been
reused among veterans who served
under Gen. Joe Hooker by statement
made by Col. kiliaen Van Rensselaer,
that the battle of Charlottesville was
lost because Hooker was drunk on the
field. Thomas Lawler, who was Gen.
llOOkcr'S private secretary, and vino
was with him when he died, made this
explanation Yesterday of the probable
origin of the story. Gen. Hooker was
standing, early in the action, near one
of the columns supporting the poTtico
of an Old-fashiOued house. A round
shot struck the pillar and frag-
ment Of the flying stone struck Hooker
on the head stunning him. He recoy-
cred IN moment, or thought he had,
and mounted his horse to ride away.
He had gone but a short distance when
he tainted and fell from his horse. An
effort WAS made to revive him with
brandy, but he could not swallow il,
and some of the liquor was spilled over
his clothes. The smell of the liquor
may have caused somebody to think
that Hooker had been drinking, but he
had not. 1t is also absolutely untrue
than Gen. Hooker ever said God Al
mighty can't whip the army of the PO-
tomac.' Everyone who knew Gen.
Hooker will know how impossible it Is
that he should ever have uttered such
a sentiment "-Ne,r York Press

TERRIBLE WORK OF VOLCANOES.
What an Active One Can Do when Fully
Aroused.

Few people in this country imagine
what terrible work volcano of the
regulation size can do when it once gets
fully aroused. In 1888 COtapaXi threw
its fiery rockets more than 5000 feet
above the crater and in 1867, when the
blazing mass confined in the same
mountain was struggling for an outlet, II
roared so loud that the awful noise was
heard for a distance of 600 mil as In
1897 the crater of Tunguragua, one OF
the great peaks of the Andes, flung out
torrents, of mud and lava which
damned up a great river, opened new
lakes, besides making a deposit OF
seethIng mud, ashes and lava 600 feet
deep over the whole area of valley
which was twenty miles long and aver
aged / 900 feet in width. The stream Of
lava which flowed from Nesuvius in 1897
and passed through the valley Of TcrTe
del Greco is estimated to have contained
@@33, 600, 900 cubic feet of solid matter.
In 1860 Etna poured out flood of melt
ed stones and ashes which covered
eighty-fOur square lies of fertile coun-
try to a depth of from ten to forty feet.
On this occasion the sand, scOria, lava,
etc, from the burning mountain formed
Mount ROsinl, q peak two miles in cir
conference and over 1000 feet high.
In the eruption of Nesuvius in the
year ~ A. D., the time Of the destrUc-
ton of Pompeii, the scoria, ashes, sand

dimensions of the volcano itself. while

ODDLY NAMED BAPTISTS.


Regular, Primitive, and Old TwO-seed-

The Northern and Southern bodies are
numerous, the former aggregating 500

The more quaintly-named bodies are
very conservative Baptists. who are not
in fellowship with the Regular, or Mis-
sionary, nor with the Primitive or any
other body of Baptists. They are
strongly CaivInistic, holding firmly to
the doctrine of Predestination, as their
name indicates. The phrase Of Two
Seed is understood to indicate their
belief that there are two seeds. one OF
death and one of life. The former be
came implanted in man when ne fell
from the state of holiness in which he
was created originally; II brings forth
the truitage of eternal death. The seed
of life is communicated by the Holy
Spirit to those who are called and re-

life. Not all the associations accept this
