Fourth Of July celebration.

tOufth OF July celebration.
The Glorious Fourth was duly
celebrated in Socorro with
large attendance of people and
it is unnecessary to say that all
who we're here had a good time.
The day dawned cool and
pleasant and at sunrise the cele-
bration began with the firing Of
anvils and music BY the Philhar-
monic band. Large numbers we're
already on the streets and about
2 o'clock all left for breakfast,
after which couple of hours
we're spent in a general visiting
and social chat among the fast
assembling throng of people,
when headed by the band march
was made to the depot to meet
and welcome the visitors from
San Marcial who came up on the
freight train. The line then
formed and made a grand parade
to the Socorro plaza with music
by both the San Marcial band and
the Philharmonic band of this
city. After a grand band con-
cert in the plaza the speech
making of the day took place
from the band stand. Speeches
we're made by Mayor Estevan
Baca. Eleas Baca and Hon. ID. P.
Carr of Silver City. These
speeches were all good. indeed
far superior to the ordinary cut
and dried spread eagle Fourth of
July Grafton and the speakers
were frequently interrupted BY
cheers and applause from the
vast concourse of appreciative
listeners. The two former named
gentlemen spokein Spanish while
Mr. Carr addressed the meeting
in English.
In the meantime the kid base
ball clubs of San Marcial and
Socorro were playing a match
game on the ball grounds which
was witnessed by large numbers.
The game was won by the So
corro boys.
At o'clock the people again
assembled on the grounds when
the horse races took place. This
merely a scrub race but. there
we're quite a large number Of
entries and much amusement was
afforded to the lockers on.
Next came the great base ball
game of the day. a match game
between the clubs of San Marclal
and Socorrc. This was a fine
game some excellent playing be-
ing done by both clubs. At the
close the score stood II for the
San Marcial club to 9 for Socorro.
After the ball game came the
Burro races, wheelbarrow races.
sack races and foot races which
furnished 3 great deal OF amuse-
ment.
A salute 6red at @ o'clock closed
the daytime celebration.
At night the Philharmonic band
gave a grand Fourth Of July ball.
The attendance was large and all
who we're present unite in the
opinion that it was one Of the
most enjoyable dances ever given
in Sccorro.

Mis- Yic1cc,

During the training OF the militia in
Camp1eltown a company was ordered
off for ball firing, including d game
keeper from Amnamurchan, who was
singled out as marker. The sergeal-
took up the fieldglass to see if all was
ready, when, to his horror, he saw the
marker standing in front CT the target.
Thinking the man ins2pe the sergeant
at once hastened to the rescue, and in
an authoritative voice demanded the
meaning of such reckless conduct, at the
same time describing the marker as
fool I'm no sic fool as you think, -
was the retort. 81 ken the safest place

DOMESTlCATED WOMEN.
Their Lives Arc Happier Than Those Led
by Their "Advanced,, sisters

Their Lives Arc Happier Than Those Led
by Their "Advanced" Sisters
1t is great mistake to think that be-
cause a woman is domesticated she
must, in consequence, be dull, dowdy,
Cld-fashioned, and altogether out of the
social sphere. A domesticated woman
need not be nero domestic drudge,
whose thoughts and conversation are
confined wholly and solely to her house
hold duties, the servants and care of
the nursery; who can take no interest
in art, literature, politics or society.
1t IS quite possible, even in these days
of rush and hurry, as many women
have proved, to take a personal and
practical interest in her home and be-
longings. and at the same time keep in
touch with the deeper. fuller life of the
outside world. To look we'll after her
own household is the duty and should
be the pleasure of every woman. Even
those who have to leave the shelter Of
their homes to work in the busy world
outside-and what a number of re-
fined women have to do this in the pres
ent day-need not neglect their homes,
for it is not SO much time that is neces-
sary for the smooth working of house
hold as thought, methods and punctual-
ity. If the machinery is put in good
working order, not much time will be
required to put it in motion each day.
Wonen's duties are varied as well as
domestic, for it is a duty as well as
pleasure to move in pleasant society,
to keep up old friends, and make new
acquaintance duty we owe to our
selves as we'll as to others, for none of
us are meant for self alone. A domes-
ticated woman can fulfill these duties,
for, living in the calm and peaceful at
mOsphere of wcll-ordered home, she
has the time that the woman, who is
always rushing about and trying to do
everything, cannot command.
The truth is that the women who
lead lives of excitement and rush do so,
not because they really like it, but be-
cause it is what they consider fashion
able. If the tide were once turned,
they would gladly follow 1t, and, in
following it, would discover that their
lives were fuller and happier than in
the days when they ran about, breath
lessly, with complaints of no time, and
busting air that deceived no one ex-
cept themselves.-St. Louis Republic.

BRIDAL DRESS.

long train. The mOire WAS that pattern
called MORO antique, which means that
the waves are large and broken, with
no regularity about thom. This is far
richer than the set patterns.
This particular dress had balayeuse
made Of white tnffeta pinked on the
edges and put IN close box plaits. There
was no trimming upon the skirt, nor
even the traditional orange blossom.
The corsago and skirt We're sewed to-
gether in tho back, to adult of the wat
teau folds These wore finished with
choux of crepe lfsse at the top. The cor
sage was scanned down the front to imi-
tate a plastrOn vest, and around ths
waist was 4 very narrow rufle CT crepe
lisse. The neck was finished by very
full ruchc IF crepe lisse in front and
large bow in the back. On each side the
ruche in front was set a small spray of
orange blossoms. The sleeves were
pulled to the elbows and there ended
with a full ruche of crepe isse The
tulle veil vas very long i'll the back and
simply cut. not hemmeI. A small bunch
Of orange leaves and blossoms affixed to
the hair completed this superb gown.
This costume was imported and cost
5000. Let us see how cheaply this could
be made at home. Twenty yards of
moire at 81 per yard, $25; as many
yards OF lining silk at so cents, $40;
crepe lisse for ruching, So artificial
orange blossoms, 3d. tulle veil, So;
bones, looks and eyes, etc, so; total,
S43 for material If one has a good
dressmaker to come to the house for,
say, one week at 50. 80 a day, that brings
the total cost up to sos. Economics
could be made on this estimate by using
cheaper lining, and as the gown is for
one occasion it really does not require a
fun silk lining; also 90 yards are more
than are really necessary, especially if
the gown is made in ono's own house
Eighteen ought to be enough without
cabbage. - Women know what that
means.
There is quite a difference between
the two prices, isn't there: A clever
mother who knows all the ways of good
shopping ought to get all the materials
for this gown for $35 at the outside,
and if the home dressmaker can holp in
the making the price could again be
lowered. I tell all this not so much in
the hope Of gaining converts to q home
made wedding outfit as to let the foreign
-dressmakers see that 1 recognize the
value of their names stamped or woven
upon the silk belt on the inside
I saw sweet little wedding gown
for a modest young girl that was simply
exquisite, though costing hardly any
thing. It is of soft white wool barege,
the skirt gathered all around very full,
except the front, which is slightly
gored and left plain. The whole skirt is
hemmed up with row of cream silk
hemstitching. The waist is surplice,
with belt and long ends of MORE ribbon.
The folds of the surplice waist each have
a row of notched buttonholing of silk
floss. The sleeves are dropping puffs.

CHEAPER LEMONS NOW.
The Exceptionally High Price VIII Fall
on account of Large Innnorta

0 ETlCO VIII + All
on Account of Large Imports.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The Bertram
steamer Sylvia, from Messina and Paler-
mo, has just brought 26,9OO boxes of
lemons to this port. Owing to the entire
failure of the Florida crop, together with
short production in Sicily, lemons had
jumped to $1025 a box and $125O
case. A box holds from 130 to 100 lem
ons and case just as many, only the
fruit in the latter is larger and finer.
In day or two the steamer Victoria,
from Malaga, Spain, is due with $4,000
boxes of lemons Prices will then drop
again. The nominal rate is from So to
81 box
Not since 1883. when, owing to very
small crops in Italy and Spain, lemons
sold at $16 box. have they been so
high as within the last 80 days Yet
fruit men say this years invoices are
only about 10 per cent less than last
years. In the early part of the season
there was surplus il the market. while
the August supply ran short 100000.
Last year Florida supplied New York
with 100000 boxes, and the total con-
sumption in the metropolis was 100000
boxes, or about 40 lemons for every
man, woman, and child.
