CORRESPONDENTS ANSWERED..

Durango.-The highest point in the
Vale or Cochiti mountains is 10000 feet
above sea level, and the average height of
the summit of the range is $500 feet, or
the altitude of La Veta pass. The alti-
tude of most of the Cochiti mines varies
from $500 to $500 feet. Eagle City is
1900 feet above the sea.
w. M. S.-The salary of the governor
of New Mexico is $4,000, that of the Sec
retary $500, that of the judges of the
supreme court $4,000 each and that of
members of tho legislature So per day,
all paid by the United States. The
salaries of the treasurer, auditor, solicitor
general and superintendent of the peni
tentlary are paid by the territory. The
justices of the supreme court are also
paid annually $500 each by the territory
for holding territorial district courts in
the various counties.
Churchman.-Ths Most Rev. j. B. Lamy,
D. D., reached this city in 1851 and was
raised to the dignity of archbishop of
Santa Fe, with Colorado and Arizona as
suffragans, by Pious TX, on December 81,
1874. Archbishop Lamy retired from
active service in 1885 with the title of
Archbishop of Cizicus and was succeeded
by Archbishop j. B. Salpointe. The latter
sought retirement last year and was sue
ceeded by Archbishop L. Chapells, who
is vigorously carrying on the work so
nobly begun by his Jealous predecessors.
Young Writer.-There is no such word
as "provsn." Prove is regular verb and
forms its past tense in ed. 1t would be
quite as proper to say "loven" as
"proven."
Miss L.--Your informant is mistaken.
The Spanish language can not be acquired
in "thirteen easy lessons" If you are
familiar with the grammars of the Latin
and English languages you doubtless
could gain speaking knowledge of
Spanish in 365 "easy lessons.' 1t would
pay you to try.
Star Gazer.-The planet Neptune was
discovered in 1916 almost simultaneously
by the Astronomers Leverrier and Adams.
The discovery was iue to the disorderly
conduct of the distant planet Uranus.
The story Is interesting. Read it.
Lulu.-Even hard times can hardly be
pleaded as a sufficient apology for the
economy exercised by some fashionable
ladies in cutting "decolette dresses"
