people2 In these things this country
could, If permitted by equal terms, at
this moment destroy by competition the

the countries employing the cheapest
labor and sell better goods cheaper than

The price Of GAS is stationary and
very cheap.
the use Of GAS for COOKING and
HEATING WATER is now thoroughly
established
About 1.7OO GAS STOVES are in use

The advance in coal prices can be
offset by using GAS STOVES in the
early fall and late spring, and houses
win thus be more comfortable than with

The Price q the silver vote.

llarper's Weekly.
Since 1878 our government has exerted
itself to keep up the price OF silver by
monthly purchases of the metal first at
the rate Of two millions a month and
since the passage of the law OF 1890 at the
rate of four and one half million ounces
a month"; The experiment has proved
most dismal failure. Instead OF rising,
the price has enormously fallen. It is
evident that nothing can stop this down
ward tendency so long as the production
OF silver continues to increase And this
increase threatens TO 20 on, for while
some mines are, indeed. closed because
they cannot produce profitably at present
prices, others which produce at lower
cost are kept going, and new ones are
opened which pour fourth constant
stream. Moreover, there seems to be
no end of invitations cheapening the
methods Of production, so that mines un-
profitable to-day may become profitable
again 70 morrow, even at prices lower
than those now ruling While the
price Of silver has been sinking the ac.
cumulations of the metal Ia our Ma
tional Treasury have baen steadily
growing. They form the so-called basis
of large issues Of paper money But, in
fact they are no baiis at all, for il they
were thrown on the market nobody can
forsee to what point tho price would

cally unstable. The value of that
paper currency depends upon the ability
Of the Government to redeem IL IN gold

THE GOVERNORS TRIP
From tho New Mexican.

From thu New Mexican.
Gov. Prince has been received In
Mexico with special attention, 1t be-
ing probably the first time since the
American occupation that an actual
governor Of the old province Of Mexico
has visited the capital Of the Mexican
nation. The minister Of foreign az
fairs and the officers Of the war de-
partment have been specially solicit
tous to show every attention to the
visiting governor. Special permits
were issued for admission to the varl-
GUS places of interest not open for ad-
mission to the public. Col. Monroy.
the military commander OF the dis
trict, extended many courtesles. Col.
Green, to whom Maximillian surren.
dered, acted as escort to various his
torical buildings, including the pal
ace at Chapultepec and the ancient
palace Of Montezuma in which the
celebrated moharch died.
On Thursday evening last military
band Of over fifty pieces was sent to
|serenade Gov. and Mrs. Prince at the
Hotel del Jardin, and the occasion
was enlivened by the presence of near
ly all the American sojourners in the
city. The band included in its music
the American national airs, and a
composition arranged for the occasion
and called "The Sister Republics. +"
All Of the newspapers, Spanish, Eng
lish and French, have spoken in the
pleasantest terms of the visit. On
Friday the party visited the hacienda
"Soledad" of Senior Cormona, the Mex
lean millionaire; and on Saturday the
Industrial and military school in
charge of Col. San Martin. On Sum
day Gov. and Mrs. Prince dined at the
American legation. Altogether the
relations between New Mexico and
the republic to which it once be-
longed, have been pleasantly strength
ened by this visit.

ages, and went hither and thither in
quest Of water. Finally he was de-
celved by this so much aud had gone
so long without anything to drink,
that he became delirious, and whip
ping out his revolver, shot himself to
get rid of his sufferings.
"His hand was unsteady and instead
of inhlcting a fatal hurt he shot him
self in the leg. He saw the blood
oozing from it, and in his crazed con-
dition drank it as it came from the
wound. Strange to say, it revived
him so that he partially recovered his
reason, and at last got back to where
he could get water and be treated.
He eventually recovered.
"On the vast dry plains near the
Mexican border last summer IL great
many coyotes went mad because there
was no water to drink. In this mad
condition they wauld bite anybody
they found. Two Mexican boys were
sleeping on the ground in their blan-
kets one night when a mad coyote at
tackled and bit both of them. One of
the boys afterward died Of hydropho-
bia from the coyote bite, but the
other finally got well.
''There have been several instances
Of people dying down there of hydro
phobia from the bites of the mad coy
otes. Rather more Of them have oc-
CURED over the line in Mexico than
anywhere else. 1t was the excessive
drynesS that caused the coyotes to get
crazed. At such times they are dam
gerous, and one must look out for
them"

WHAT A CALIFORNIAN SAW.

A recent San Francisco dispatch
says: One of the wierdest of desert
scenes is the mirage, and no more GU
rious stories have been told of them in
recent years than by Dean Duke, OF
this city, who, as superintendent of
the great Haggin s. Hearst cattle
range in New Mexico, has been much
in the snddle during the past few
months. and has seen many of them.
Mr.. Duke has just arrived here.
He tells of quaint towns beyond the
American border being refracted in
the skies and made to appear as actu-
ally existing on the New Mexico des-
erts. The towns vary in size, and the
domes of churches and of government
buildings, the stories, and all the out
lines stand cut in clear view. The air
is so thin and pure that a real object
fifty miles away does not appear to be
more than five.
"In riding over the plains 1 have
seen many of these strange mirages of
towns Of old Mexico he Said. "The
spires of the churches, with their
white crosses, the adobe building, and
everything about them are complete
Riding at distance one takes them
for real towns, and it is only after
learning that there can be no such
cities in the vicinity that lie gives up
his idea of going to them. Many men
have been deceived by them, as they
have been by the mirages resembling
lakes.
"Last week an American named
Frank Siebold was johrneying from
the old town of Juarez, Mexico, to
Los Palomas, in New Mexico, with a
lot of merchandise About forty miles
south of Deming, in chihuahua, he
saw a beautiful lake and pulled over
the plains to get water for himself
and team, as both were very thirsty.
He drove for quite a distance, and
still didn't appear to get any closer.
Still, the lake was there before him in
such beauty and naturalness that he
never thought but it was genuine, and
kept on. He could feel, as he thought,
the cool breeze from the lake, and was
encouraged to push ahead.
"At length, after going several
miles and getting no closer, the fact
of its being mirage Of the desert
dawhed on him, and he wheeled his
team about to get back. But night
came on before he reached the road.
He pushed ahead, thinking to reach
it anyway, and thus got lost and wan
dered around till he could not reach
the road.
"He had, therefore, to stay where
he was, and in the morning he renew
ed his search. 1t was no use, howev-
er. He could not find it, and after
wandering around a good while longer
he unhitched his teams, left his goods,
and proceeded in the direction he sup
posed Los Palomas wac. 1t was four
days in all before he got back, and in
that time he had no water and suffer
ed greatly. 1t was a wonder he got
through at all.
Another case / know Of occurred
last summer. A Mexican got lost on
the plains, was deceived by the mir
