Cochiti is proving good thing for the
Santa Fe Southern. Fifteen Colorado
miners came in over that road last night
bound for the camp.
The Crown Point is being steadily de-
veloped. Another shipment of several
thousand pounds of high grade ore has
been sent to the Socorro smelter.
Colorado continues to pour its quota
of miners into Cochiti. Lucas Madrid
and Tomas Archnleta, of Rico, left by
Patterson's stage for the campthis morn
ing.
Mr.. Ireneo Chaves is back from Cochiti.
He is interested in claims in both the
Pine and Jemez regions, and estimates
that there are now from 200 to 800
miners in that locality.
E. G. Fletcher, of Boston, is on his way
to Cochiti, and at Eagle will join G. w.
Arnold in opening drug, stationery and
cigar store, which will also serve as New
MEXICAN headquarters.
Hon. H. B. Ferguson, of Albuquerque,
/ has bought of Frank Fagley a one-tifth
interest in the Sunny South and North
Star claims, extensions of the famous
Washington, in Pine canon.
Brown Brothers yesterday commenced
the survey of lots for the Eagle Town
company. This new town is seven miles
above Allerton. Mr.. G. W. Arnold, late
of Santa Fe, has been endorsed for post
master and has forwarded to Washington
petition signed by $50 miners. The
establishment of postoffice there will in
nowise injure Allerton.

ROUND THE TEA TABLES
A Delightful Entertainment Last
Night-Unique Features That
Proved Decidedly Pro-
fitable.

The ladies of the church of the Holy
Faith, Episcopal, assisted by the Misses
Fairchild and Miss Ferguson, gave de-
lightfully entertaining tea and bazaar at
the Catron block last evening, the room
being kindly placed at their disposal by
Mr.. J. Fl. Gerdes who is soon to occupy
| it. The large hall under the deft mani
pulation of the ladies was transformed
into scene of oriental beauty. Those
entering the place we're at once struck by
the artistic arrangements of the tables
and decorations.
The tea tables, presided over by Mrs.
Fairchild and Mrs. Littell, were the rem
devious of large number who listened
to the interesting talk of the charming
hostesses as they slipped their beverage.
Their gracious manner was the cause OF
large addition to the library fund. Each
one who purchased cup of tea was also
presented with box of bon-bons and
cake. The elegant silver and china ware,
| loaned for the occasion by Sister Vic
toria, was the admiration of all who be-
| held it.
The candy table, presided over by Miss
Ferguson, did thriving business. The
baskets containing the toothsome morsels
were wreathed with violets and daisies.
A number of ladies of the church con-
tributed the baskets of candy and they
sold with great rapidity.
The fancy table, presided over by Mrs.
Palen and others, was fairly ladened with
artistic and ornamental articles. 1t was
the center of attraction for large crowd,
most of whom made purchases.
The Gypsy tent was the most attractive
feature of the bazaar. A large army tent
had been loaned by the officers of Fort
Marcy, and it was set up in the far corner
of the room. Outside the tent we're seated
a group of young gypsies around tripod
from which was suspended an iron pot.
The interior of the tent presented scene
of mystic splendor. Seated upon rugs
were Miss Sallie and Miss Caryl Falrchild,
who told the fortunes of whoever crossed
their palms with shekels. The young
ladies have evidently studied palmistry,
as some of the fortunes told by them
came remarkably near being the truth.
Mr.. Butler, who impersonated the chief of
the Gypsy band, looked hideous enough to
frighten anyone.
The ice cream table was charmingly
presided over by Miss Gulliford and the
Misses Baker. They were kept constant.
ly busy serving guests.
The entertainment was such brilliant
success that there-is talk of repeating it
The net receipts were $50, and the money
will 60 to the library of the Holy Faith
Sunday SCHOOL.

Grand Canon or Colorado River.

On the Santa Fe route, in northern
Arizona, 1852 miles from Kansas City, is
the town of Flagstaff. A tri-weekly stage
line runs from Flagstaff to the Grand
Canon of the Colorado river. More than
a mile in depth, this is the sublimest Of
gorges-a Titan ofrchasms. Twenty
Yosemites might be hidden unseen below,
and Niagara would look scarcely larger
9han brook.
Don't fail to visit this first wonder OF
the world. You can "read up" about it by
asking G.. T. Nicholson, g. P. d 7. A., A.
T. d 8. F. R. R. Co., Topeka, Kas., to mail
you free copy of an illustrated book
describing this terra incognita. The book
is no common affair; bat is entertainingly
written, beautifully illustrated and a gem
of the printers art.
