The public school board of East Las
Vegas is thought to be on the point of
employing another teacher, fixing up an
other room and taking pupils not resid
ing in the city, but charging them tuition.
The Optic doubts if this will meet with
the appreciation of the Taxpayers of the
city, when taken in connection with the
fact that all home children, under years
of age, have been excluded from the
schools for the coming year. Also, be-
cause such action can but damage the
private schools of the city. However,
the Optic will be glad to have an ex
preston of opinion on this subject from
any of It's readers.-Las Vegas Optic.

mesquite bean is the most nutritious
food, weight considered, known to the
western rancher. This food keeps horses

thrive on the mesquite beans and sheep,
goats and COWS fatten quickly on them.
Thousands of tons are shipped annually
from Texas to Germany for feed for
cavalry horses. No more profitable an
occupation can be found than gathering
the mesquite beans which annually 60 to
waste in the Pecos valley and storing for
feea, when the beans would sell as we'll as

How to Prevent Group.

SOME READING THAT WILL PROVE
INTERESTING TO YOUNG MOTHERS. HOW
TO GUARD AGAINST THE DISEASE.
Group is a terror to young mothers
and to post them concerning the cause,
first symptoms and treatment is the
object of this item. The origin of Group
is common cold. Children who are
subject to it take cold very easily and
Group is almost sure to follow. The
first symptom is hoarseness; this is soon
followed by a peculiar rough cough,
which is easily recognized and will
never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will soon disap-
pear. Even after the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the
attack. There is no danger in giving
this remedy for it contains nothing
injurious. For sale by L. Stabler & Co.

CITY COUNCIL.
A brief meeting of the City Council
WIS held last night.
roam OF ALDERMEN.

| BOARD OF ALDERmEN.
| There were OILY five members of the
! Board of Aldermen present last night
! The only business transacted was the
c1ucurring i'll the action of the lower
board in referring an ordinance provld:
ing for the inspection of buildings and
regulating the construction and repair
ing of buildings within the city limits
to the committees on public properly
and streets.
Mr.. Burke offered q resolution. which
was adopted, that when Council adj
iourns tonight it be TO meet again the
second Tuesday in 1896.
The board then adjourned without
transac,ing further business.
COMMON COUNCIL.
The board was called to order at
eight o'clock.
After the reading of the minutes of
the last meeting, an ordinance (Which
had passed the board at its last meet
ing) was received from the Board OF
Aldermen in regard to the removal OF
saow, SC, from sidewalks, and referred
to the committee on streets.
tIr. Burke said the ordinance was in
tended to amend one already in force.
The present law made it compulsory
only upon persons living within the fire
limits to clean their pavements ofsnow.
The new law would provide for the
cleaning of all sidewalks within the
city's limits.
The action of the Aldermen was con-
Cured in.
The ordinance providing certain
regulations for building within the
city's limits. which had been on the
table for about year, was reintro-
duced by Mr.. White and referred to
the committees on public property and
streets.
Mr.. Beach moved that the action of
the board in refusing to concur with
the Board of Aldermen in granting the
petition of the Police Commissioners
for four extra men be reconsidered,
and the motion prevailed.
Mr.. Greene said when this petition
was first presented to Council he bad
voted against it, he preferring to aid in
increasing the salary of the present
force. Subsequent developments, how
ever, had caused him to change his
mind in regard to the matter. He now
believed an increase in the force was
necessary. One reason, he said, was
the fact that those of the present force
manifested so much zeal that they
should have additional support. For
instance, a week or two ago two OF
them purloined two prisoners and con-
yeyed them to Fairfax Courthouse with
out waiting for a policeman to come
here from that county and take them.
Such zeal should be encouraged, as
these gentlemen had showed dis
position to go even beyond their own
bailiwick in order to be serviceable.
Besides, he thought the request for
four more men should be granted in
Difference to the wishes of the commits
sioners whom Council had elected to
attend to the matter of policing the
city. He moved that the matter be
laid over until the next regular meet
ing of Council.
His motion prevailed.
A resolution from the Board of AL
dermen providing that when Council
adjourned it be to meet on the second
Tuesday in January was adopted, and
the Council adjourned.
