G. H. Young, superintendent of the Al
buquerque division of the Wells-Fargo
Express company, has just issued a
statement of the business and expenses
of the principal offices of the division for
the month of June, 1896, as compared
with the same month last year. 1t shows
neat increase of business without in.
creased expense of the Santa Fe office,
while slight decreases in business are
shown at every other Office in New Mex
leo. This is doubtless very gratifying to
the efficient local agent, Mr.. F. G. Alley,
as it is pleasing to the people of Santa Fe
generally. The express business at this
point is destined steadily to increase with
the growth of the fruit industry.

A stumper.

Mr.. II. F. Davidson has had construct
ed stump burner made of sheet iron,
in the shape of a stove, that will likely
revolutionize the work of clearing
ground of stumps. The design was
brought here by Mr.. Bone, when here
turned from the Sucker state last spring.
The advantages of this stump burner,
like bob tail flush, are all in the draw.
1t is said that when set round a stump
and loaded with pitch, wood and fired,
it creates draft that can only be likened
to a cyclone. Davidson sat up with 1t
eight hours the other night, and after
feeding it about eight cords of pitch
pine, it drew tears to his calloused
cheek, drew blisters on a log ten feet
away, drew all the neighbors within a
radius of a mile to see it work, and he
thinks, if given full vent, it would draw
mortgage on the farm. He first bored
hole in the stump, and with stick ci
giant powder shattered and loosened UP
the stump to give the mersheen a good
start. After burning eight hours the
stump swelled up, probably with its
Importance of being the first stump ex.
perimented with, and the sheet iron
burner can't be removed till the stumI

Christmas Trees.

Christmas Eve was observed by most
of the churches, by having the usual
Christmas trees with their wonderful
fruit, and the exercise appropriate to the
occasion. The Methodist. church had
two trees and jolly old santa claus
with pack full of toys on his back.
The Congregational church was crowded
with little folks and their parents each
happier than the other, all participating
in the presents plucked from the
generous boughs. At the Christian
church there were appropriate exercises,
but no tree. The Sisters had very
handsome tree and some very beautiful
exercises, and among other things, a
big, generous santa claus. Christmas
night the Lutheran church and the Sal
vation army had their exercises, the
latter having Christmas stocking in
stead of tree. There were candy, nuts
and apples galore, and something for
every little one, besides more substan-
tial, if not so filling, other things. The
Episcopal church has its Christmas exer-
cises Monday, somewhat late to be sure,
yet certain to be enjoyed by the young
sters who have capacity for Christmas
tree every night in the year.

and struck Fisher a heavy blow on the
head, knocking him down and cutting a
cash in the back of his head that it took
several stitches to close. As usually
happens IN such cases, the innocent suf-
fered, Mr.. Fisher having nothing to do
with it.
After doing all the damage, Douglas
discovered his mistake and skipped over
to Washington to avoid arrest. Of
course the smart fellow who caused all
the trouble is now perfectly happy.
His mind being relieved from the heavy
strain caused by evolving so stupendous
a practical joke as turning out the
lights, can easily soar to the pinnacles of
bliss where, let us hope, neither the
mind nor matter containing it will be
out of reach on the annual visit of the

JUST A SMALL BOY,
But He was Ubiquitous and Had Two
Gizzards.

The numberless things a small boy can
do in the course of an hour, each without
generalization or object, is simply as
tonishing; but it is no more so than the
number of things he can devour in the
same time. Going down on the boat to
Hood River Christmas morning our at
tention was attracted by the vigorous
and maggoty movements of a youth
about 10 years old. The boy was on his
way to Mosier to spend Christmas and
make the day one joyous carnival for
some family.
Previous to the boat leaving the wharf
he seemed to have general supervision
of boat. cargo and passengers. He was
from one deck to the other not less than
a dozen times in as many minutes. He
read the marks on the freight and asked
passengers their names gave out won
derful amount of information as to the
boats movements, and was generally
busy. After the boat started the field of
his labors became more circumscribed.
He remained inside most of the time,
because it was too cold to holy-stone the
hurricane deck or slush the main mast.
He was abundantly Supplied with
Christmas cheer suitable for one of his
age. AS soon as the boat pulled out he
procured a bundle Of licorice sticks a
foot long and commehced to absorb one
of them. As he chewed at one end of
the stick he took down alHthe folding
stools piled in the forward cabin, then
he piled four or five of them on one and
sat down on the aggregation. That only
satisfied him for a moment, and he
placed three of them/on the deck built
up in the cabin oFer the boiler and

fathomless depths of his pocket he pro-
duced a mosquito bar full of candy,
which he soon placed where it would do
the most good, climbing on top of the

THEATER BURNED.
The Park Theater at Niagara Falls Was Totally
Destroyed by Fire Yesterday
Morning.

Niagara Falls, N. Y. Aug. 1.-THE Park
theater was destroyed by fire at o'clock
this morning, causing loss of $4,000,
covered by insurance. Last night box
ing exhibition was given in the theater
and 1t is supposed the fire was due to
carelessness on the part of some one in
the dressing rooms. When the fire was
discovered the flames had gained such
headway that they burst through the
roof and walls in several places, and
soon spread to Googan's bazar and res
taurant and to the International hotel,
which adjoins on the north. The guests
hurried to the street and for a time 1t
looked as If the big hotel would be de-
stroyed, but the firemen succeeded in
preventing anything more serious than
scorching 1t. At 1870 O'Clock the theater
wall fell in and by 2 o'clock the fire was
under control. Loss on the bazar and
restaurant amounts to about $4,000.
The Park theater was burned about a
year ago and was rebuilt by stock COM
pany.
