The newest of western mining camps,
the Cochiti camp, in New Mexico, lies
near the ancient Indian village of that
name on the west bank of the Rio
Grande, southwest from Santa Fe. The
mines lie in ledges which cross at right
angles the walls of three canyons, the
Cochiti, the Pine and the Peralto.
Some of the ores already taken out here
are very rich, and, if the claims as to
their abundance are verified in the con-
tinued working, Cochiti will prove one

The fire department at Berlin has a
fire engine, the carriage of which is
constructed entirely out of papier
mache. All the different parts, the
body, wheels, poles, etc, are finished
in the best possible manner. While
the durability and powers of resistance
possessed by the material are fully as
great as those of wood, the weight is,
of course, much less. The lightness of
fire engine is, of course, great ad-
vantage, and it seems not unlikely that
wooden carriages will in short time
pasc out of use altogether.

HOW TO WASH GLASS.
\ Subject with Which All Housekeepers
Are Not Familiar.

Subject with which All Housekeepers
Are Not Familiar.
For windows, mirrors, glassware and
polished glass generally it is best not
to use soap in cleaning and to employ
only the softest and finest cloths. Pol
ishing powders, polishing soaps and in
fact anything harder than prepared
chalk should not be used. A polish
once given, whether the substance be
glass or metal, cannot as rule be i'm
proved by any ordinary rubbing. For
bottles or other articles, where the APP
pearance is Of no consequence, pearline
or soap may be used in combination
with sand, etc.
For mirrors, fine glassware, etc., al
cohol and water is probably the most
convenient and safest liquid that can
be used. In some cases a little acetic
acid OF lemon juice may be added with
advantage. Upon windows, whiting or
prepared chalk is frequently recon-
mended, but the polish obtained in this
way is inferior.
In cleaning common glass little at
tention may be paid to the preservation
of the surface. 1t is possible to use the
more powerful agents safely. For
strong corrosive I've, for cleaning dirty
bottles, etc., dissolve an ounce of car
Donate of soda-common salt soda-in
quarts of water and bring to boil.
Slack an ounce of quicklime in COW
cred basin, and when thoroughly slack
ed add, little by little, to the boiling
solution of soda, stirring frequently.
This is very effectual in removing
grease, but is so strong that the hands
must be kept from coming in contact
with it, Sand soap answers very well
for articles In which the slight abrasion
of the surface is not of much Importance
and when the dirt does not adhere tena-
ciously.
For sediment in the bottom or dirt
clinging to the inside of the bottle,
place little rice or coarse ashes in the
bottle, fill half full of the cleaning So
luton, shake thoroughly, and it will be
quickly cleansed.

American Protective Association And
Catholics Have Bloody Battle.
KANSAS CITY, April 4.--The Ameri-
can Protective association and the
Catholics came together in bloody
conflict at the polls in this city Tues
day. 1t cannot be stated which side is
responsible for the ARRAY. as the
partisans of each loudly charged the
other with being the full cause of all
the trouble. More than 100 shots were
exchanged between the combatants in
less than that many seconds and when
the firing ceased the following named
were lying dead, dying or injured on
the pavement:
Killed: Mike Callahan. city sidewalk
inspector; shot through the right side.
Fatally injured: Harry Fowler, labor
er, shot through the back; Con Brosna-
han, contractor, shot through the kid
neys; Jerry Pate. deputy constable.
shot in the face.
Wounded: Patrick Fleming, shot in
the left shoulder; John McGovern,
laborer, shot through the right arm.
The riot was the elimination of bitter
feeling which had been manifested by
action and words ever since the polls
opened in the morning. The two an
tagonistic elements were solidly divided
In their choice of candidates for mayor.
The riot that resulted so fatally was
the climax of series of other riots
that took place at other points earlier
IN the day between the same opposing
religious factions. This riot took place
on the southwest boulevard in the Fifth
ward. very close to police station No.
B, and those who took part in it had
been heated to the fighting temper by
reports that had been hourly arriving
at the station of brawls at other polling
places
Only one hour before it was known
that John Cooley, stonemason, was
shot in the back and forehead by Will
lam Henry Walker at voting place at
the corner of Fifth and Campbell
streets and that the row was directly
due to fiery debate between the two
men regarding the principles of the
American Protective association, to
which Cooley was violently opposed.
That Cooley was not instantly killed
was due simply to the fact that the
pistol used was mere toy of 22-caliber.
