CHRISTMAS AT MOUNT PINsoN.

BOLD HIaHwAYMEN GET IN THEIR WORK
 ON TWO VICTIMS.
 EMoUNT PINsoN, Jan. 1.-Christmas passed off with reasonable measure of good cheer in this precinct.
 Miss DuBose borrowed the Silver Lake institute, with it's two large apartments, for the holiday exercises of her school of some tbirty to forty primary pupils. The exercises were very satisfactory to the crowded house and were designed upon the latest instructions for such things. The fancy costumes of the children, who acted their parts, and the amusement to the spectators answered every purpose of good play, leaving the actors all the better for the physical and mental training in pleasant lines. The teacher then took Christmas by spending week in the city.
 Recently our people have been stirred by some bold highway robberies. Some held up in the vicinity of Greene's station, four miles nearer town than this, by ne- gro in broad daylight. He was knocked on the head with rock and left senseess on the road after being robbed of $4 in cash, all he had with him.
 A few days ago 16-year-old son of Mrs. Hagood of this place was returning afoot from the city on the turnpike. A negro held him up several miles out from the city, and, finding he carried no money, re- lieved him of the new shoes he wore, com polling the boy to walk home barefoot.
 Our citizens are on the alert and maraud- CTS and tramps will hereafter be looked after.
 We are all covered with snow, but have plenty of firewood and pork and hominy, especially the latter.

TALE OF THE SNOW.
MISS BARKER WALKED SIX MILES THRo UGH
 THE STORM TO BE wEDDED.

MES BARKER WALKED SIX MILES THRoUGH
 THE STORM TO BE wEDDED.
 WILKEsBARRE, Pa., Dec. 3l.-A girl will do great many things for love, but not many would tramp six miles through 2 feet of snow, with the thermometer at zero, in order not to dsappoint the man who was waiting to marry her.
 This, however, is what Miss Anna Bar ker, now Mrs. Samuel Callen back, did, and the story has just become known. She was to have been married at o'clock in Par sons on last Thursday night 10 Samuel Calenback, young miner of that place. For the two days previous she had been staying with relatives in Nanticoke, get ting her wedding garments ready, and on Wednesday evening she left there aud came to this city to take car for Parsons.
 This-Was the night of the big storm aud the electric car was blocked. She could not get upon the car aud went to the Jersey Central depot, put the last train was gone. She was in q sad plight. There were no means of communicating With Parsons, and she had not money enough 10 engage a carriage. It was z o'clock and she was 10 be married at s, and Parsons was six miles away. The severe weather, however, was not to keep her from the man she loved, and she resolutely started to walk, first intrusting her bundles to the station agent.
 IHeTS NaS utdl y iSCO Oi odoN ou l1c ground and it was bitterly cold, but she plodded along as best she could. After ex- treme exertion and after suffering intensely from the cold, she reached Parsons at 10 o'clock. The church was closed, as she expected, but she walked on to the house of her lover, and there found 1t full of the invited guests doing their best to console Callenb back, who was almost heartbroken over what ne considered the faithlessness of his expected bride.
 Soon she told the story and the happy young man insisted on the marriage taking place at once. Miss Barker, of course, was willing ,and after she had put on some bor rowed clothes, her own being cold and wet, the whole party went to the church, Rev. Father Keirnan was aroused and Miss Barker became Mrs. Callen back. Today communication was restored with Parsons and among the first car load of passengers were MT. and Mrs. CalIen back, who came trousseau, left in the hands of the station agent last Wednesday night.

2 A SEVENTH REASON
Why the Cotton Mills Should Be II Erected in the Southern -o States
To the Age-Herald: A

10 tue Age Herald:
 Permit me to add a seventh reason why the cotton mill sh ould, and in time must, come to the cotton fields. Three years ago, {, during visit to my mother in Massachu- . setts, was discussing the feasibility of building cotton mill in Birmingham with friends of mine, who were wealthy men and largely interested in cotton mills at Holyoke, in Massachusetts. Among the advantages named, which are embodied in the six reasons given fin the AGE- HERALD of yesterday, they mentioned the seventh, to which they seemed to attach more im- portance than all the rest. One Of the gen. tlemen asked, ''Do you know why cotton goods manufactured nowadays is not so servlceabe and will not lust as long as goods man ufactured from the same material twenty-five years agu?' 1 re- piled In the negative. The answer was, ''Formeriy cotton came to us loosely packed by the ordinary cotton press from the plantation. Now it is packed or com pressed by steam, which com peiely de- stroys the bloom or life giving prin- clple, and in order to prepare it for thread-making we are compelled 10 put it through pickeries, whicd necessarily breaks the foer aud makes the thread much weaker. Another disadvantage the fiber being so short and broken we cannot run our machines as fast; the thread will break ottener, thus causing loss of time in the spinning of yarns, Therefore this is the
 greatest reason of all why we should go to the cotton fields.'' sREIBoN."

THE COLD WEATHER
Pre- vents the Alice Furnace From Blowing, But Everything Is
 Ready for the Torch.

With the commencing of the new year the Alice furnace intended blowing in ', but the terribly cold weather has frozen all the pipes, and until they thaw it will be impossible for work to commence.
 All preparations have been made and they would have commenced this mornin 2 with about 250 or 300 hands, including the coke ovens. Part of the ovens will run at present, but within thirty days the man. agement hope to be running all of their 400 ovens.
 In the past they used only one casting shed to each furnace, but now they have arranged to use both the sheds 10 the one furnace, which is fully capacitated to make runs large enough to fill all tho pig be Is that the two enormous sheds eau hold.
 Electric lights have been put up all over the place, and it will look like a city in itself. Yesterday there were at least 200 unemployed negroes around the furnace waiting for job, which will be given them the minute the big engine starls. They have now at work over 100, aud last week there were 255 on their pay roll.
 This and the commencing of the Ala bama Rolling mill works will put to work over 1O00 men within the next thirty days.

Is What, New Mexico Now Has
 the Pleasure of Enjoying.
REPUBLICANS BREAK AWAY
And Proceed to Organize by Swearing Each Other In.
 Compromise Talked Of.

SANTA FE, N. M. Jan. 1.-The legisla- tive assembly of New Mexico convened yesterday. The republican members held meeting and swore one another in. Eight democrats and four republicans were recognized as members of the council and sworn in by Secretary Miller, but the re- publicans claim that seven republicans out of twelve were elected on the face of the returns.
 In the house, which consists of twenty four members, the secretary swore in twelve democrats and declined to swear in Christy, ember-elect from Dona Ana and Grant counties, for the reason that under the territorial law Christy was not eligible and that the house should judge upon his merits.
 After organ ization Christy and fourteen republicans, all claiming to be elected upon the face of the returns, then left the house and held caucus, which resulted in the organization of a separate house Of fifteen members. They called on the secretary to be sworn in, but not finding him they ad ministered the oath to each other, and pro- ceeded to organize the house by eleciing Christy speaker.
 The three bodies have adjourned till Wednesday. Measures of compromise are being talked of and a satisfactory agree inent may be reached.

DESERVING OF PRAISE.
yhe Motormen of the Several Electric Car Lines Prove Faithful
 to Their Trusts.

They came and went all day and night, and never murmur of complaint was heard from one of them.
 The public appreciated them, and surely their employers did the same.
 The above refers to the men who stood hour after hour at the front end of the whirling electric cars, with their hands on the rods and eyes ever on the alert for pas sengers and to prevent collisions with pedestrians and vehicles.
 The motormen proved themselves heroes, and as such won the commentators of everyone who had occasion to need their services. Through the binding snow and in the biting wind they went and came with startling regularity, and nobly did they perform their duties.
 The AGE-HERALD bespeaks for these knights Of tho electric car grip long, prosperous and happy existence, with wishes for their success wherever they may be.

New Years day was an ideal one over head, but dreadfuily disagreeable under- foot.
 The great mass of snow which fell during Sunday afternoon and night still remained, , the rays of the sun not being strong enough to melt it. Notwithstanding this there were great many people out and the streets presented busy sight.
 It was truly a good beginning for the year just born.

FROM THE SCENE OF THE TRAIN ROBBERY.
 NO DEVELOPMENTS AS YET.
 Superintendent Frazer of the Alabama Great Southern came back to the city yes- terday afternoon from York, where he had been to look into the robbery of the train the night before and endeavor to catch the robbers.
 Detective Barnes Morgan is down in that part of the country now, and is making strenuous efforts to capture them. Dogs were put on tbe trail yesterday morning at 6 o'clock, but little could be done.
 The gang is thought to be new one, and made up entirely of amateurs.
