Senator Pedro Pcrea, Of this county,
ara Representative W. e. Dame, of
S,nta Fe county, who, with Arch
bishop Chapelle, we're designated by
the legislature to disburse the public
funds voted to relieve the widows and
orphans of the victims in the White
Ash mine, held conference Tuesday
afternoon and mapped out their work.
Mr.. Dame has spent much of his time
during the past few days among the
people of Madrid, and at the confer
ence he submitted list of those
deemed worthy Of this charity. Sew
eral OF the families are in abject pov,
erty. 1t was decided by the commit
tee to denote to each widow the sum
of 5000, aud to each orphan the sum Of
$50. This plan Of distribution will,
it is thought, fully comply with the
humane spirit Of the legislative act.
The sum Of SO, 500 is the amount of the
appropriation, aud under this arrange
ment something like s., 800 will be
used, leaving several hundred dollars
to be covered ba3k into the territorial
treasury. Messrs. Dame and Perea
were at Cerrillos yesterday, giving out
checks Ia accordance with the plan
above outlined.-AlbuQuerque Citizen.

SOME E4CYS.

As a general thing Democrats don't care much about facts, If they did, and if facts made a proper impression upon them, there would have been no Demo- crats for at least thirty-hve years, But they will have to do some bold ignoring and some ingenious explaining in order to mitigate the force of some facts which now stick consplcuously out,
 During three years of President liar rison's administration there was de- crease of $244S24,246 in the interest bearing public debt, and from Novem- Der 30, 1893, to August S1. 1895, there was an increase, during the present ad- ministratlon, of $162, S27 ,62O,
 For the year ending June 30, 1895, there is reported deficit amounting to $4S,941, 5S9. This deficit is further augmented by expenditures over income during July and August to the amount of $14,S75,36S. The aggregate of these amounts of deficit, and increase of in terst bearing debt since November 30 1S9S is $22O,644,577 The interest bear ing debt was decreased by the payment of government bonds during President Harrisons administration to the amount of $259, 074, 200 The balance in the treasury June 3O, 1889, was $2S7, ,531 ,010; June 3O 1892, the balance was $126,- 692,377 and on June 30, 1894, it was $117, ,5S4, 4S7. It will thus be observed there was a net saving, during Presi- dent Harrison's administration, of $99,- 2S4,576, which was utilized in the ex- tinguishment of that amount of the national debt, and the total reduction of liabilities would include an interest charge annually of at least $10,000, ,00O This presents to the American voter, comparing the last Republican with the present Democratic administration in favor of the former and against the latter, a difference of S32O, ,S79, ,153.
 For the year ending June 30, 1892, the total value of our exports was S1,- S027S,14S, and for the year ending June 30, 1894, $S92, ,140,572, showing a decrease of S13S, S,137576. Imports paying duties, 1892, $37O, BPS. .1s9; 1894 $275, ,199,O ,OS0; a decrease of $95, ,139,113. Total imports, 1892, $S29, ,4O2, ,462; total imports, 1894 S654, ,944,622, de- crease of $174,457,S4o. The London Times says that the board of trade returns for the last six months show an increase in almost all kinds of Brit ish exports to this country to the amount of $2S6, ,639, ,365, over that of 1894, while there was a decrease of imports from this country to Great Britain during the same period of $14,500,S95
 Of course the Democrats will not see much in these facts. They never did see much in the facts that demon strated their inability to govern. But, all the same, there has been much in them, and there is a great deal in the facts set forth above.

PROFESSOR PErRIE,s THEORY.

Is it possible that Christian c1viliza- the world, and is it possible that the Christian nations have been treating the inferior nations with great cruelty and wrong in trying to civilize and Chris tianfze them? Professor Flinders Pet rie whose name hath an iconoclaStic sound, has been telling the English people that they have been all wrong in certain matters in which they have been very sure that they were all right. He told them that no change is legitimate or beneficial to the real character of a people except what flows from convic- ton and natural growth of mind, and if the imposition of a. foreign system is injurious, how miserable, he exclaimed, is the forcing of a system such as ours, which is the most complex, unnatural, and artificial that has been known, a system developed in cold country, amid one of the hardest, least sympa- thetic, most self-denying and calculat- ing of all the peoples of the world. "Such a system, the product of such ex- treme conditions, we attempt to force on the least developed races and ex- pect from them implicit subservience to our illogical law and our inconsistent morality" The result, he says, is death. eve make death house and call it civilization. Scarcely a single race can bear the burden, and then we talk com placently about the mysterious decay of savages before white men"
 The professor is very radical. He cited the case of the Egyptians as an illustration of his theory. He asserted that the Egyptian who has had reading and writing thrust on him is, in every case he met with, half-witted silly, or incapable of taking care of himself. His intellect and health were undermined and crippled by the forcing of educa- tlon. He continued: The general inn pression in England is that reading, writing and arithmetic are elements of education. They might be so to us, but they assuredly are not to other races. The exquisite art and noble architecture of Mycenae, the undying song of Ho- mer, the extensive trade of the bronze age, all belonged to people who never read or wrote. Some of my best friends in Egypt are happily ignorant of such accomplishments, and assuredly l never encourage them to any such useless wasss of their brains. The great essen Gals of valuable character, moderation. justice, sympathy, politeness and con- sideration, quick observation, shrewd- ness, a keen sense of the uses and prop critics of things, all these are qualities
The daily morning journal and courier., 1895-09-18

on which I value my Egyptian friends, and such qualities are what should be evolved by any education worth the name. No brain, however, humble, win be worse for such education, which is hourly in use, while in the practical life of a simple community the accomplish ments of reading and writing are not needed perhaps for week or a month at a time.
 There is plausibility in this, but if it finds general acceptance what will be- come of the missionary work which the Christian nations are now doing?

FASHION NOTES.
crepon Again an Exclusive Weave.

NTVpUH AsaIH hh ENCIusIVe weave.
 Crepon was so generally worn last winter and spring that fashionable wo- men promptly voted it "done to death, :" and turned to something else on which to expend violent liking. But, lo one of their earliest fanoies after summer was over was crepon itself, only of a quite different weave. It is wider, richer and more costly than before, and even the least expensive sorts are safe from becoming common for good while. It was in one of these new ere pons that the dress of this sketch was

found, and though simply made it was particularly handsome. Its skirt was plain, save for narrow hem at the bottom, and its fitted bodice fastened at the side and was trimmed with bands of Byzantine embroidery containing ir- ridescent beads and spangles. The trimming was alike back and front and appeared on the edges of the double ep- aulettes. Three bands of it showed on the cuffs. too, and the girdle was made entirely of it. If the custom of the past is followed with these fabrics, they will in time be produced at prices within the means of women generally, and it is to be hoped that such will be the case, for they are very desirable goods.
 In no respect are the fall styles more attractive than in the house dress of neglige order and fashions makers seem at last to have devoted some at tention to the gowns that wufaen will wear in doing housework. A type of these comes in light wool or cotton, is made princess, in front hangs in a nar- row box-pleat from throat to hem and is fastened by lots of little bows. The sleeves are big bags from shoulder to wrist, and at the wrist they fasten on a drawing string. Mark that. The quaintness of the little gown is added to by the fact that it is short enough to show the high-heeled, heavy-tongued slippers now stylish. When l4 fhis rig the wife is getting breakfast for John, she unties the drawstring at each wrist ard turns the sleeve half way up the arm to tie there. There is no need of guaranteeing that the dimpled arms will look as pretty below this impro- vised short sleeves as do the "boudoir" Woman's below her siTA ones.

He has made a prolonged study of the disease in India, and finds that the climatic condi- tions there correspond closely to those of our western and southern coast. Nor is climate any barrier to the dis ease, as is commonly supposed, when it once gets a foothold, for it is found as far north as Iceland.

The present governor of Mississippi is a remarkable holdover. His State is one which fell early into the practice of choosing governor for as long period as president, and the present incum- bent was elected in 1889 to serve four years. In 1890 came the convention to revise the constitution, and this body provided that the governor and other State officials should have their terms, which would normally end at the close of 1893, extended through two years more, so that they would hold office con- tinuously for six years. Moreover, the convention assumed the right to declare the new constitution, including this pro- vision, in force without submitting it

patent Office for a patent
upon her dimple- producing pro-
cess; but, as it was refused, the
secret is now common property, and
any one who cares to experiment may
try it. Her claims were as follows:
Smear small spot on the cheek or
chin with colorless shellac varnish
mixed with glue. With a pencil or
penholdcr press the flesh with the
point, holding it there until the sub
stance on the face becomes dry and
hard. The stiffened indentation thus
retains the exact shape OF dimple.
and a little face powder carefully
busted over the artificial dimple"
will completely conceal the varnish
and glue compound. Some care must
be observed in smiling too suddenly
or the dimple may be broken. But
with ordinary gentle usage it will re-
tain its pretty shape whole
