THE "Chronicle'' of today suggests
that when that monstrosity of ~ugiiness,
the new City Hall, is ready for occupa-
tion. the old building be turned over to
the Trustees of the Free Public Library.
At first glance, the idea seems to be a
most admirable one. The building is very
fairly adapted for library purposes. 1t
has plenty of wall room, plenty of space.
plenty of light, and the big chamber of
the Aldermen would make a fine reading
room. Unless some occult reason to the
contrary be discovered, the necessary
legislation should be secured at the COM
ing session.

The Latest Refunding Scheme.

On December 6. the Board of Finance
will refund at Az per cent. $4,000 worth
of old 6 per cent. improvement bonds,
issued in 1865. This means a reduction
of nearly 5000 a year in interest charges
to begin with. Something to give thanks
for tomorrow.
But. further. among the bidders will be
the Sinking Fund Commissioners of the
city. They have sufficient money on
hand to take the whole issue of new
bonds. In other words. the city will pay
off this debt, except as a mere matter
of bookkeeping. The interest on the new
bonds collected every year from the tax
payers. will, as a matter of pia& COM
mon sense, so to pay off other debts Oh
the city instead of going into the pockets
Of outsiders. This also is something to
be thankful for.
The net result of the operation is the
reduction of public burdens and the i'm
provennent of public credit. There is
also a good assurance in the facts that
the city's finances are being we'll man
aged.

Santa Fe, the city of the Holy Faith OF
ST. Francis, is situated on the site of ar
ntlnaian Pueblo called a-p-ho-ge
1t is probably the oldest civilized com
lnunity in the United States and TIE mos,
ancient of American capitals. The Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities
disagree as to whether this city or San Au.
gnstin, Fla, were first ounied. Santa
re was first visited by American traders
In 1904, and from that time dated a
wonderful era of prosperity. The thrill.
ing incidents of the old Santa Fe trail
starting from Westport, Mo-, gave it q
world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sANlTAR1uM.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the U
=. weather bureau, says: "Santa Fe is in
the driest habitablo part of the United
States. This region is extensive, and
changes in form from season to season,
but Santa Fe is always in it,"
1t is situated in charming nj ok of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is domi-
mated by the influence of mountain peaks
that tower nearly $4,000 feet high. To-
gether with this it lies at an altitude of
7,Ol5 feet, and latitude, about the seth
degree north, that gives it peculiar adj
vantage as a sanitarium. The elevation
sempcrs tho summer heats, which NATURAL
y should be about that of Memphis,
Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and its south
ern situation reduces the rigors of winter,
AS an illustration, during the winter of
1892, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather, and last winter the omissions did
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work,
and'no one in Santa Fe can be accused of
being "too lazy to BREATHE" as a great
physician expressed it. The rare, ozon-
ated air permeates every cell of the lungs.
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs.
symington and Harroun, who have prac-
tlcei in Santa Fe for over twenty years,
report that they have only found two
sases among the native people of con-
sumption.
NORMAL TEMPERATURE.
The Q. s. weather observation Office
has been stationed here for twenty years,
md the following statistical data tells
better than words how even and mild is
'he climate of Santa Fe. Taking the
summer heat and the winter cold the fol-
lowing tables show most equable and
delightful temperature:

There is no other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France, tina,
can show such stable and equable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
er need fear no sudden changes. A little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and inaammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and IL
must be remembered that the local con-
tingont OF consumptives is daily aug.
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe ia
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is % out Of every 1000 of the com
munity; in Minnesota it is IL, and
Throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
aperture of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The drv

picturesque valley. It is at the entrance
of splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pocos National park, where fish ana game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places Of pic
turesque and OF historic interest Among
which may be mentioned the old adobe PAL
ace, first erected shortly after 1905, from
which tile Spanish viceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
latea from about 17l6; but it is full of
interest, as every room is consecrated by
the memory OF thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.

A Transmigration of Souls.

A Transmigration of Souls.
TWAS whispered by tho sages
OF the prehistoric ages,
When all newspape and kilograms and letters
were unknown,
That the heather gods felt jealous
So the ancient legends tell US
When the happiness Of nortals was more per-
feet than thei, own.
In the days that have quoted
You and l, dear, were devoted
Toeach other with feryor that we never, new
er SEQ
In this age Of shams and shoddies,
For our souls wore Grecian bodies
And found life very pleasant thing in sunny
Already.
So the heather gods grew spiteful,
As our lot was SO delightful,
And they said: 'Theso twain shall live again
when worldliness is rife.
And when we are out of fashion
They shall nurse hopeless passion
And shall learn that Love counts nothing in
the game of human life."
Yet we love again today, dear,
In the old ecstatic way, dear,
Though we see each other rarely and our paths
lie far apart.
Ancient gods and modern London
Have been oyerthrown and undone
When they tried alike their utmost to expel
you from my heart.
And my people ask politely
How friend know SO lightly
Can be moro to me than others have liked
year or so?
But they cannot solve the mystery
OF our transmigration' history,
And they've no idea loved you those millen.

And all our fairest dreams are wrecked and

Even though there is more III than good In life,
We cling to life and reckon not the cost.

Still we forget loves sorrow in loves Joy
And cherish tears with smiles for loves sweet
sake
Only in heaven is bliss without alloy.
Thank God for love,
Thank God for pain.
No tear hath ever yet been shed in vain,
And in the end each sorrOwing heart shall

No curse, but blessings, in the hand Of pain.
Even when he smileth, then is God most kind.

The Reporter Recognized.

The Reporter Recognized.
The manager sat in his easy chair
Rubbing his head where he ought to have hair
While the editor wrote out a lengthy screed
On tariff reform and the finance we need;
The printers were pasting their rings and thei
phat,
And the devil was feeding the big office cat.
There were bills for presses and bills for type.
And lots of drafts that were more than ripe;
There were telegraph bills that were overdue
But subscribers and ads they were very few.
Twas terrible state of affairs.
So that managers brow was knit with care
AS he swung around in his pivotal chair
TO pay his respects to promising youth
VINO said, Il am here"-and that was thu
truth
ITO ask for a job as reporter.
just give me a trial at u moderate rate,
And by dint of hard work I'll work out my
fate"
He rather admired the managers cheek
When his offer was five and a quarter a week
But he couldn't afford to decline or be grutf,
So he said that he thought 1t was surely enough
10 give u young man as a starter.
So he tackled the job with q hearty good will,
And he only had eight lengthy columns to All;
~ touA HUI, tb IEucs CWcuty HOURS Jay,
But that left him four to sleep and to play.
Then the paper enjoyed regular boom;
Subscribers came plenty and ads lacked for
room,
And the managers hands were weary at night
With counting the silver that rolled into sight,
And fine marble palace then lifted its head
On the sight Of the shop that was crumbled
and dead.
Twas wonderful change from the past.
The reporter called down OH the manager then,
Who adjusted his glasses and took up his pen
And wrote on pad: you have saved the con-
cern,
When you went on the local the tide took
turn.
We are prosperous now, we were then in fix;
We will now pay you wages-we will raise you
to SIX"
He was trying to try the reporter.
The reporter declined with contempt and with
scorn,
And the managers looks were trifc forlorn.
He saw the reporter was boss of the ship,
An essential adjunct to prosperous trip.
So lie said in voice that was husky and slow,
Like some mighty monarch that s laid very low:

But hope that you'll marry my daughter"
