THE PLAN OF WISDOM.
A Citizen Discusses the Probable EN-
tension of the ID. Il H. Il. south
ward-The COchiti Route.

1T seems almost incredible said
citizen to-day, shat the d. IL r. G. road
should consider seriously the building of
its extension down White Rock canon.
That route to Bland, the shipping point
for the Cochiti district, would be about
forty-fve miles through a country that
would require double the expense Of
building than by the other only feasible
route to be had. Building south from
Santa Fe to Cerrilos via San Pedro and
the Tijeras canon to Albuquerque should
be the route for the main line, and the
Cochiti branch should leave this main
line i've miles below Santa Fe aud take
down the Rio Santa Fe past Labajada
and Cochiti pueblo. Such line would
reach Bland in less than forty miles over
a route that would not cost half as much
as the White Rock canon idea"

TWO NEW STRIKES
what Development Has unearthed In

wiling Field for Investment.

Correspondence New Mexican.
Golden, Santa Fe county, Feb. 81
Schroeder & Co, owners of the Martha
mine ON the east side of the Tuerto noun
tains, on the Orc Quey peak, about one
mile east of the San Lazarus mine, have
made quite strike.
In running an incline tunnel on their
property to intersect the bottom of the
main shaft they struck we'll defined
tissure lead of gold and silver ore now
fifteen inches in width and appears to be
rapidly widening. Eight inches of the vein
is white quartz and galena, panning
coarse gold, which will average 500 per
ton and will also run we'll in silver. The
balance of the lead is in carbonate shape
panning SIS in gold. This being a we'll
defined fissure, which undoubtedly cuts
through and under the main mountain
peak, 1t is considered valuable dis
covery, end for the further reason, while
there has been considerable work done In
this section, the mineral was never found
in place before. The owners intend driv-
ing the incline on into the mountain and
they expect to find the lead much wider
and richer when greater depth is
reached.
While the New Mexico mine was being
examined last Tuesday pleasing DIS
covery was made. On the east side of
the main tunnel at distance Of 225 feet
from the entrance what appeared to be q
wall was left standing. The expert in
making his examination picked into this
supposed wall and found that instead of
it being wall it was part of the main
lead, the width of which is as yet unde-
termined. The ore thus found is red
oxide of iron and limonite, rich in gold.
This claim is another evidence that de-
velopment pays, and that all that is
needed here is depth to put in sight rich
gold ores in mammoth bodies.
We can not say as yet that this is the
''richest country on earth," bnt the time
is not far distant when systematic de-
velopment will prove it to have but few
equals as mining section, and it is now
good field for profitable investment.

Literary Piracy.

From the Syracuse Courier.
Mr.. David Belasco, the well-known dra-
matte author, is charged by a lady OF
Butte Mont, with having appropriated
the sensational curfew bell scene in his
play, 1.-THE Heart OF Maryland" from a
play written by her and copyrighted In
1851 Mr.. Belasco is one OF the gentlemen
most actively engaged in the endeavor to
induce congress TO pass a measure TO pro-
tect dramatic writers from so-called dra-
matte and managerial pirates who appro-
pirate their plays without paying for
them.
IL the charge of the Montana author
ess can be suhstantiated he will be con-
victed OF the very crime which he asks
congress TO condemn in others. The lady
who makes the complaint against him Is
specific IN her charges. alleging that the
bell scene In Belasco's play is identical in

are very similar.

General Maxine Gomez, who is lead
ing the Cuban insurgents, is warrior
of good stuff. In Campos he is pitted
against a trained and experienced COM
mander. but he seems to be outwiting
him at every point. The rapid advance
of the Cubans towards Havana is, un-
der the circumstances, little short of
miraculous. Nor is this the first time
that Cuba's patriots have distinguished
themselves in the field of war The
Chicago Times Herald recalls several
analogies furnished by the previous
Cuban revolution of 1869. The gallant
Cespedes began his operations with
force of 147 men. In three days he had
captured three towns. Within month
he was in possession of two more. A

For earth is the ponderous tongue that
swings
In the tower of tine. The cathedral

Is the universe, and the bells huge rim
Is the ether blue as 1t rings and rings.
The chimes are the passions that sway

In one mighty vibration upward rolls.
And hushed are the voices around the
