For more than week past Sheriff
Peters has been engaged in selling off
the stock of G. G. Koch at Knowles
thus rounding off his term OF sheriff
with big bonanza in the way of fees.
DR.. J. L. Scott, candidate for state
veterinary surgeon, obtained his final
citizen papers here last Tuesday, but it
was afterward discovered that they
were not legal, the doctor not having
resided In this country the requisite
five years as the United States statute
directed. According to his Intention
papers filed October, 1892, he only
landed in Detroit from Canada in Oc-
tober, 1890.
Taxes this year are more than double
those of last year, at least as regards
this city. This is owing to an increase
In the school tax on account of the new
addition built this year, and to the
drilling of well, etc, for the coming
waterworks. The county tax is about
the same, while the state tax is lower.
John Kelley, of The Telephone, is
home from Washington to spend the
holidays with his family.
No trace has been found of the four
highwaymen who escaped from jail last
Tuesday night, in fact no effort has been
made to trace them. By tearing a
couple of wooden blank cts in strips and
tW listing the strips together, they low
cred themselves to the ground. The
sheriff was away from home at the
time, and nobody seems to have heard
the noise made by breaking a hole
through the wall. w.

All newspaper men "get ito once in

A Happy Cath ering.

Under the above caption The La
Crosse Republican and Leader of De-
cember II gives the following account
OF a pleasant gathering that numerous
Watertown people will be inter ested
in:
Probably the happiest company of
the many that have enjoyed an even
ing's dance at Germania hall was the
one which accepted the invitation of
Messrs. Pamperin and Wiggenhorn
and were in attendance there Satur-
day night. The enter tainment was
rendered by the firm to their en-
ployes as token of the strong feeling
of friendship and good will existing
between them, the occasion being the
return of the recently married couple,
Mr.. and Mrs. Percy Wiggenhorn, from
their wedding trip.
Despite the difficulties ofthe wealth
er, when the grand march was formed
at nine O'Clock there were sixty-fve
couples in line, including the families
of the firm and the employees in toto,
only two of the latter being absent,
and those because of illness After
the opening waltz, a brief address of
welcome was made by Eugene Wiggen-
horn on behalf of the firm.
Dancing was then INDUCED in gener-
ally until about midnight, when a
sumptuous banquet was served in the
gymnasium hall below. The tables
had been arranged in hollow square
and were beautifully decorated
with flowers, while a souvenir carna-
ton was laid at every plate. During
the supper Langstadt's orchestra fur
nished delightful music from the bal
cony. After tie repast Louis Tillman,
as POSTMASTER, called for toast to the
young couple, wishing them fe-long
pleasure and happiness, which was re-
sponded to by all with the utmost
sincerity. Percy Wiggenhorn then re-
sponded. thanking the employees for
their thoughtfulness and friendship
shown to himself and bride in their
beautiful wedding present. John
Pamperin and Eugene Wiggenhorn
spoke briefly of the pleasant relations
existing between the firm and en-
ployes, and pledging themselves to do
all in their power to make them more
pleasant, if possible, in the future
Responses on behalf of the employees
were made by William Luth and Mr..
Mott, after which the party adjourned
again to the dance hall.
Dancing confined until half-past two,
when street cars had been chartered by
the firm to take all as near home as
possible. Thus everything had been
done by the hosts to make ever,
tail of the party as pleasant and agree
able as possible to the guests, who will
never forget the good time they en-
joyed nor the hosts who SO generously
provided it for them.

Tho great secret Of boredom is to bO
found in two leading qualifications. A
bore must be unable to find amusement
In himself. and he must also be unable
to find amusement in any one else. He
must depend for his amusement neither
ON his own mind nor on the minds Of
ais friends, but simply on the gratitica-
tion which it is to him to give a special
direction, or at least to suppose that he
gives a special diTection-for he is q
creature OF the most unlimited cTedul.
ity in the art Of mRgnifying his own in.
luence-to the minds Of his friends.
He is In despair unless he can imagine
himself a person Of influence, and I'M
luckily he can never imagine himself q
person of inluence--for he is a man Of
very limited imaginative power-unless
DO is taking overt steps to convince
somebody of something, whether it To
Of some technical doctrine like Dugald
Dalgetty's atrategic principle, or simply
of his own importance, Or even of the
importance OF his patrons, like Mr.. Col.
Inns in Pride and Prejudice" To be q
drst rate bore you must have no re-
sources in yourself and no esources in
your friends, bat must depend for your
satisfactions on the real or fancied power
of making your friends either think az
do what they would oihe wise not think
or do.-London Spectator.

The YOUNG QUEEN vcroalA.
Her Majesty's Actions on being Notified Vi

Hor Majesty's Actions on Deing Notified "
the Kings Dcmisa.
William Nv was dead. The arch.
bishop OF Cantei bury and Lord Conyng-
ham were dispatched to inform the
Princess Victoria Of the fact. IL vas a
warm night in June. The princess was
sleeping in her mothers room, her GUS
tom from childhood, and had 70 be sum
moned out Of her sleep. The messen-
gers awaited her in the long, unlofty
room, separated only by folding doors
from that which was inhabited by the
Duchess Of Kent and her daughter. The
young girl entered alone, in her night
dress. with some loose wrap thrown
hastily about her. The moment she was
addressed as Your majesty" she put
ont her hand, intimating that the lords
who addressed her were to kiss II and
thereby do homage. Her schooling ana
her instincts were admirable tIom the
FIRST. Self possession combined with
perfect modesty came naturally to her.
A few hours later, at IL O'Clock in
the morning, the child queen met her
council. In the corridor at Windsor
there is a picture which commentaries
the event. Never, It has been Faid by
an eyewitness, waa anything like the
first impression she produced or the
Chorus Of praise aud admiration which
was raised about her manner and be-
n%avior, certainly not without justice.
Her extreme youth and inexperience
and the ignorance OF the world concern
ing her-foI she had lived in complete
seclusion-excited interest and curios-
ity.
Asked whether she would enter the
room accompanied by the great officers
Of state, she said she would come in
alone. Accordingly when all the lords
Of the privy council were assembled the
folding doors we're thrown open, and
the queen entered, quite plainly dressed
and in mourning, and took her seat for
the first time, a young girl among q
crowd Of men, including al the most
famous and powerful Uf her subjects.
She bowed and read her speech, handed
to her by the primo minister, Lord Mel
bourne, in u clear and firm voice and
then took the oath for the security OF
the Church o. Scotland.
Immediately the privy councillors
were sworn, the royal Dukes of Cum
oorland and Sussex first by themselves.
It was observed that as these two old
men, her u%ncles, knelt before her, swear
ing allegiance, she blushed up to the
eyes, as if che felt the contrast between
their civil and natural relations. Her
manner was very graceful and engag-
ing, and she kissed them both. and ris-
ing from her chair moved toward the
Duke of Sussex, who was too infirm to
reach her.-Fortnightly Review.

Wenther Report for Week Ending
g.-nr.s


The weather conditions for the week
ending Monday night could not be con.
sidered favorable for the advancement Of
crops.
The temperature averaged a little
above the normal and little or no rain
fall occurred. The most unfavorable fea-
ture was the occurrence OF warm, dry
winds. While these winds were not
severe and did not cause any noticeable
damage, yet accompanied as they we're,
by a deficiency in rainfall, they retarded
the growth OF crops.
The deficiency in rainfall is beginning
to be felt on the cattle ranges. The feed
is fairly good at present but is making
very little growth in most localities.
The following extracts from the week
ly reports Of observers will be found OF
interest:
Las Cruces:-With the exception Of
some high winds, conditions have been
favorable. Rain would be beneficial to
the growth OF grass, grain, & vegetables.
Peaches needthinning SO per cent. Alfal-
ia haying has commenced in earnest.
Rincon:-Crops are all doing well and
alfalfa Is ready to- cut. Tho nights are
still cool and days more or less cloudy.
More water IN the river than the week
preceding.
Gila:-FarmPrs all planting corn. Cat
tie looking well but the grass is fast dy-
ing out MS there has been no spring rain.
Los Lunas:-All crops have made good
prgress during the week but rain is need.
ed badly to keep up the necessary supply
Of water for irrigaiing. The Rio Grande
is falling considerably.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS on the Me
ga shows the need Of rain. There is more
grass this year than at the same time last
wear, but the winds have told upon it of
late.
Windsor's Ranch.5(Headwafers Of the
Pecos) Crops showing the effect Of dry
weather. Range fair, and cattle in good
condition. %
Las Vegas: Circumstances continue
favorable for crops, but the water supply
IL now about to run low. No rams IN the
mountains and the snow largely gone.
s, e. & =. OF here we hear of extensive
rains, but 10 the N. rams have been
scarce.
Gallinas Springs:- Garden truck and
corn have advanced the past week, but
need more rain.
Wagon Mound;-Fruit growing fine,
The weather has been warm and some
windy days which dry up the ground
considerably, but crops are growing
we'll. Range very dry though stock is
looking we'll.
Springer Apple and peach crop Is
reported to be all right and apricots will
probably be one third Of a crop.
