MUNICIPAL ELECTION.
Some Discussion of Candidates-Re-
firing Standardization Proc
lamatiOn and Election
Judges.

The municipal election, which comes
on the I'd of next month, is beginning to
attract the attention of citizens. In view
of the economic policy which has charac-
terized the city administrations outside
of public school affairs-for the past
year, taxpayers will be gratified to note
that the Democrats have decidedly the
best of the bargain in the approaching
contest. They start off with the per-
centage in their favor. The election of
but one alderman out of the four will in
sure Democratic majority in the coun-
Gil, and the school board also bids fair to
contain Democratic majority for the
next year, as under the law regulating the
retirement of it's members the Official
term of three Republicans and but one
Democrat expires on April 2. The terms
of Councilman Victory, Democrat, and
Councilmen Anto. Ortiz y Salazar, j..
w. Conway and E. l.. Bartlett, Republican,
expire this spring, and in the school
board those whose places must be filled
are Mr.. Sherrard Coleman, Democrat,
and Messrs. Canuto Alarid, Jas. Conklin,
and G. A. Spiess, Republicans. Little or
nothing is as yet heard respecting candi-
dates to fill these positions, and the
clerkship matter is exciting little atten-
ton, though the chances are that there
will be many candidates after these
places before ten days more have elapsed.
AS to the mayoralty number of names
are mentioned. On the Republican side
one hears talk of the names of Major
R. j. Palen, Mr.. S. Wedeles, Gen. E. l..
Bartlett, Chas. A. Spiess, Jim Harris and
Manuel Valdez. Among Democrats the
names of Marcelino Garcia, G. F. Easley,
DR.. Andrews, and Mr.. B. Seligman are
being discussed.
The boards of registration for the sew
eral wards will hold their first meetings
on Monday next. In wards l, 2 and
these boards will sit at the offices of the
justices of the peace and ward at Fire
mems hall. The mayors official procla-
nation respecting the election and the
offices to be voted for, together with
the names of the judges and clerks, APP

A Treat.

A most appreciative audience hung
with rapt attention upon every word of
Professor Warman's "readings, recita-
tions and presentations" in the Pres
byterian church last night. The sword
paintings, wrought by master-hands,"
certainly never were set in framing bet
ter adapted to display and enhance their
exquisite beauty. Perhaps the gem of
the gallery was Joaquin Mlller's little
poem descriptive of Christ's taking chill
dren into his arms and blessing them.
The versatility and range of Prof. War
mans power to impersonate must have
astonished every nearer. On the plat
form he is himself magnificent object
lesson of the results of physical and In
tellectual training. Bodily and mentally
he is SO we'll developed, so healthy, so
clean and beaming and sunny, that to sit
and scan him for an hour would afford
wholesome pleasure even if one should
not hear word spoken. Tonight the
subject will be "a Critical Analysis of
Poe's Raven"

THE MOONS ECLIPSE.
A Particularly Happy View of the
Passing Of the Shadow Had
in Santa Fe.
To the Editor of the New Mexican.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Santa Fe, Mch. l;.-America has fore
stalled the eastern hemisphere again. The
moons eclipse was not announced for
Europe till a. m. on the 18th inst, but
was in full swing here at 9 p. m. on the
10th. To an observer accustomed to
view these total eclipses at sea-level and
in comparatively murky atmosphere the
beautiful sight presented in the clear air
of this altitude possessed the rare charm of
novelty. At totality the shadow of the
earth projected on the moon showed with
great distinctness the more prominent
Irregularities of our earth's surface and
no doubt the scientific astronomers now
in Santa Fe can locate for US the noun
tain ranges whose shadows we're thrown on
the moon-screen by the grand sun-lan-
tern, whether they were the Rockies, the
Andes, the Himalayas or the great
African range, which in that case would
seem to warrant the title by which they
are generally known. The great novelty
of this eclipse consists, however, in tho
fact that never for an instant was the
moon completely obscured even during
totality. The beautiful rim round the
earth's shadow, suggesting the deceptive
notion that : the. moon was the larger
body, has often been satisfactorily ex-
planned, but how are We to account for
the actual appearance of the earth's
shadow? During the whole duration of
totality the substance of the nool was
as distinguishable through the earth's
shadow as is the sun through the pro-
verbal London fog, which the shadow
very closely resembled. This extra
ordinary nebulous quality of the earth's
shadow would really suggest that we may
be living on planet as transparent as
luminous, or may we infer far
greater power in the suns rays than we
have ever yet credited him with. Those
who patiently followed the course of this
eclipse will have noticed that toward 10
p. NJ, when only about third of the
moon remained obscured, the shadow was
much darker and more pronounced, more
like what perfectly Opaque body would
be likely to cast; and yet all the circum-
ference line of the moon was plainly
visible, the arc of the darkened segment
showing clearly through the earth's shad-
ow. Will some of your scientific friends
explain for us this phenomenon?

The fact that Juan Jose Herrera makes
his home out in the foothills of San
Miguel county doesn't narrow his ideas
at all. He thus sensibly writes to the
Las Vegas Optics,
II was very much interested in F.
Meredith Jones' article, recently appear
ing in the Optic, on the question of rain
making. I fully agree with him that,
even if rain could be produced arti-
fcially, it would be deficient in quantity
and excessive in cost.
"There Is a way, however, in which
the rainfall of this country can be in
creased-a cheap efficient, practical way.
tt is by the construction of reservoirs
and pools filled with water from the
streams. These presenting large evapor-
ating surface will produce the moisture
which the air needs before precipitation
or rainfall can result. This purpose the
reservoirs will answer, in addition to
storing the storm waters for use in irri-
CATION during the dry season.
Had the construction of these reser-
voirs been commenced several years ago,
instead of the acequias which have so
long been used, already New Mexico
would have a rainfall sufficient for the
production of the large number of her
crops. These reservoirs can be con-
structed by community labor, just as the
acequias are constructed and maintained"

Down Country Note.

Ex-Representative Pinto Pine is in
the capital from his Mesilla valley home.
He says spring blowing is about over in
his section of the territory; wheat and
oats are up; fruit trees are about ready
to blossom and the farmers are elated
over the prospects of an abundance of
water for irrigation throughout the sum-
mer. incidentally, the gentleman adds
that he'd like to see the color of the
mans hair who accuses him of having
sold out his vote on any question during
the legislative session. As to the bill to
repeal the change of venue law he says he
did his best to prepare bill repeating
the measure, and after much effort finally
succeeded in reporting one favorably
from the Judiciary committee of the
house, but it was then too late in the Sos
sion to get it up@for action. The trouble,
according to Mr.. Pine, was that several
members of his committee we're, as far as
are concerned, thoroughly
under the influence of the Catronists, who
sought to have the change of venue law
remain effective.

The Old Abe Mine Fire.

H. 3. Ferguson, one of the owners of
the Old Abe mine, is in receipt of letters
from Frank J. Lager and j. E. Wharton
giving the particulars of the fatal fire,
which are about the same as the reports
already published. Mr.. Lager says: "The
disaster must have been caused by lamp
exploding in the west room, as one of the
men who had been working in the mill
repairing the crusher started down on the
bucket with no intimatlon of the fire and
before he reached level No. 9 the whole
building burst out in flames"
