THE LAND OF SUNSHINE.
A Unique Country where the Skies are
almost Never Clouded, while the
air is Cool and Bracing,
like Perpetual Spring.

AS an anomalous southern resort,
by reason of the fact that there one
may escape summer heat no less than
winter cold, New Mexico is rapidly be-
coming famous. Averaging through
out the entire territory 5, 800 feet in
altitude above sea-level, and charac-
teriZed by dry air which, unlike a
humid atmosphere, is incapable of
communicating heat, the temperature
in midsummer remains at a delight
fully comfortable degree through the
day, and at night becomes invariably
brisk and bracing. The sunshine is
almost constant, yet the most violent
out-of-door exertion may be undertake
en- without fear of distressful conse-
quences. SunstToke or prostration
are absolutely unknown there. 1t is
an ideal land for summer outing.
Its climate is prescribed by reputable
physicians as specific for pulmonary
complaints, and the medicinal Hot
Springs at Las Vegas are noted for
their curative virtues. The most
sumptuous hotel in the west, the
Montezuma, is located at these springs.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION
Relating to Damage Suits

Our Corn Crop.

The West Virginia Farm Report
er estimates the acreage of corn in
this State for this season at 100000
acres, which is n considerable in
crease over 1894. and an increase of
more than $4,000 acres over that of
1898. If the figures upon which the
Reporter bases its estimate are relia-
BILE, it would give us a yield of 81.
100000 bushels, as the average for
the State is given at thirty bushels
per acre. This would be the largest
crop ever grown in the State, and
would exceed the 1898 crop by over
100000 bushels. The Reporter is
of the opinion that the acreage will
reach the 100000 mark, but doubts
If the average yield of the State will
reach the thirty bushels per acre. If
il does, the value of the crop for
1895 will be $S.400,000, as the aver.
age price for the State is given at
forty cents. Should the 1895 crop
prove to be worth that sum, it will
exceed in value the 1893 crop by
1851 OPT, even at the low price pre-.
yailing.

Save The Inebrates.

The following suggestion from the
Buekhaanon Delta is worthy Of con
sidera1ion from I'll christian PEG le.
Every town IN this state should
have an organization for the pur.
pose Of creating a fund with which
to defray the expenses OF inebratcs,
who are financially unable, to take a
cure fer drunkenness, and IL our
Christians ami church going people
would take this matter in hand, they
could make 1t one of the grandest
pieces Of missionary work they ever
engaged in. There are hundreds,
yes, thousands OF good. honest men
who would be tee glad to take cure
had they means. From careful study
and close observations, the most EN-
inent physicians of this country have
become convinced that the liau0r
habit is jest as much disease as is
consumption or any other chronic
disease, just think, that by little
and from every one, to this cause.
how many poor honest men, who
would make worthy and useful citi
zens could he saved from total ruin
and a drunkard's grave; and bow
many miserable and destitute wives
and children and heart broken par
ents could again have the comforts
of life and be made happy,
One man saved by this means,
would be worth more to the temper

have never experienced the i'll effects
of strong drink In other words, it
takes a reformed drunkard to explain
the misery and hell there is in the
