always expressed a great desire to

him. This was particularly the case
at Harper's ferry. where the whole
line of ll,000 prisoners greeted him
with lusty shouts. Citizens say that
the hostile troops always spoke of
him on terms of unqualified praise.

RESOURCES OF
TAMAULIPAS.
Our Neighbor State Rich in
Coal and Iron-The Bar
roteran Road.

terey lines writes q follows
regarding the Mexican state Of
Tamaulipas:-
Iron ore is well distributed
throughout this state. There
are rich deposits of it in the
San Carlos, San Nicolas and
San Jose districts. These dis
tricts are situated in groups of
small mountains in the south
western portion of the state.
The ore in many places crops
out on the surface, but as
there has not been any effort
made to develop them very
little is known how far the ore
extends into the mountains nor
the quality of the iron. But
there are some prospects of
that being done in the near
future, as the Monterey & Gulf
railroad, which connects Mon
terey with Tampico, passes
through those districts, and
since 1t was opened for traffic
in October, 1891, rich coal
mines have been discovered in
close proximity to those dis
tricts.
There is not another state
in the Republic that is so rich
in coal as TamauIipas. Coal
is found to underlie the surface
from Columbia, on the Rio
Grande, where it Joins Nuevo
Leon, until it reaches Rionosa,
on the lower Rio Grande, and
then south TO the San Carlos,
San Nicolas and San Jose dis
tricts, and along the northern
and the eastern boundary of
the state of Nuevo Leon.
Edmond was given samples
Of the coal in 1875 which was
found cropping out on the sur
face in front ofthe city of Mier,
and in front of Rome, Texas,
and took them to Galveston
and had them on exhibition
in the Office Of the Galveston
News. The coal dealers in that
city pronounced them equal to
any soft coal then in the
market. In October, 1881, |
gathered specimens of coal at
Nuevo Laredo and Guerrero
and took them to Galveston
and Houston and hal them
examined by experts, and they
pronounced them equal to any
Of the English and Pittsburg
soft coal that was then for sale
in those cities. Last winter
Sr. Gonzalez of this city had
some specimens Of coal from
new mines he discovered, and
which were pronounced by eX
perts to be equal, if not sup
erior, 10 the Indian territory
coal. p
''In 1881 Jay Gould and as
sociates started to build a rail
road through those coal fields
from Nuevo Laredo to Victoria,
the capital Of the state. They
graded ITO miles Of the road,
built station houses and Offices
at Nuevo Laredo and a bridge
across the Rio Grande and laid
about three miles of track, but
for some cause they abandoned
it. Some years afterward they
sold the building, material ard

Fellowship in America, was OBJ
served in Challis last Friday,
April 26th, by Custer Lodge No.
81, Silver Leaf Rebekah No. 81,
and members from our adjoining
lodges.
The first part of the exercises
consisted of a public parade, by
members in regalia, under the
direction of j. G. Fox, Marshal,
and his assistant, W. G. Sweet,
from the Odd Fellows hall up
Main Street; thence down Main
Street to Sixth Street; thence
up Sixth Street to Pleasant Av-
enue; thence east on Pleasant
Avenue to Eighth Street; thence
south on Eighth Street to Main
Street; thence west on Main
Street to place of beginning.
The parade was not as great a
success as in former years, owing
to the fact that is was not more
than one-half as large. This is
perhaps largely due to these non
silver times.
The next part of the program
consisted of public exercises in
the lower hall of the Odd Eel
lows building at 3 o'clock p. m.
The hall was beautifully decorat-
ed for the occasion with ever
green, emblems of the Order,
banners, flags, etc. The exer-
cises were opened with prayer
by the chaplain; song by the
choir; reading proclamation; song
by choir; oration by A. G. Bomar;
song by choir; prayer by the
chaplain.
The choir consisted of Mrs. 0.
E. Penwell, Mrs. E. G. Dodge,
Mrs. A. J. Pierce, Mrs. Robt.
Morrison (organist), Mrs. A. K.

cruelty and fiendishness. 1t
apalls and stuns the mind. 1t is
difficult to imagine the manner
of a man that turns into a lustful
ruffian and pitilessly takes the
life of and innocent young girl,
too weak and fagile to make
even slight resistance to his
brutal attack. Poor Blanche /!
Who could have foreseen such a
fate for one of her amiable dis
position-murdered in cold blood
-lured to her death while on
the way home from school. 1t
makes one shudder to think of
her lying in the sombre shadows
of the church tower, with the
wind singing her requiem as it
swept through the half-opened
shutters. That her murderer
may be speedily brought to JUS
tice is the universal wish of every
resident of this part of the state.
Never before have the people of
this city been so thoroughly
sorrow stricken and it is learned
the feeling is the same in the
outside towns of the state where
the dead girl was little if at all
known. Expressions of sym
pathy for the stricken family
are universal and unstinted. But
what sympathy can atone for the
suspense and agony endured
since the 3rd of April when the
girl was missed ? Today the
funeral was held, and all that
remained of the once happy girl,
was consigned to the grave,
while a sorrowing people looked
on through falling tears.
The eastern press has sudden
! ly awakened to the fact that
COINS Financial School, is
making serious inroads on the
forces of the gold power. The
little books appears to have turn
ed the flanks of the enemies of
bimetallism, and to have thrown
them upon the defense. They
find, however, that COINS" tao
tics are as hard to combat as
were the maneuvers of Napoleon
by the venerable field marsha
of Austria. Their method o.
attack shows that they are at
their wits end, and demonstrate;
clearly the weakness of the
monometallic argument. Aftel
exhausting their stock of adjec
tives in denouncing the book, il
which such terms as "pernicious'
and 'pestiferous" are freely used
they assert with much unctiol
that Coins lectures were neve
delivered, and they intoduce'
defiant notes from such stauncl
goldbugs as Lyman j. Gage an,
John r. Walsh in proof of tn
fact. Even an idiot could Sc
from the manner and style O
: the book that no such actua
course of lectures was never de
livered, although the editors o
the New York Hearld and NeN
York Evening Post have appaI
entity not been able to discove
this fact. But neither Mr.. Gag
nor Walsh have dared deny tha
they have used the very word
and arguments which 'Coin
: puts in their mouths, and t
e which they are discreet enoug
a no to attempt any reply. Rigf
o here is where Coin" hurts thel
n they attempt no reply to tn
S arguments. He states the gol
It standard position fully and fai
