A puplI Of Mime Marche.i.

The following is taken from the Unios
and Advertiser published at Rochester
New York, and is certainly a very flatter-
ing notice to a resident of this city:
''Among the American young women
now in Paris studying with Europe's most
famous vocal teacher, Madame Marchesi
is Mrs. Harry Wheelock Of Las Vegas, N.
M. Mrs. Wheelock possesses a rich con-
tralto voice, but is not c%ultivating it for
any other purpose than that of giving
pleasure to her friends. Madame Marchesi,
has complimepted her on her musical
abilities and Madame Melba, who has
CHANGED to hear her sing, has praised her
voice. Mrs. Wheelock has friends in
Rochester who may be interested In an
extract from a private letter Just received
in which she writes: MADAME Marchesi
is very pleasant; and has never been i'm
patient with me, as she is reported some
times to be with her pupils. To-day Mad
anne Melba came in and we were intro
duced to her. She sat down and | went on
with my lesson. Turning to Madame Mar.
chest she said, Il like her voice, she is
musical, l can tell that After she had
gone Madame Marchesi put her hand on
my arm and said you can write and tell
your American friends that Madame Melba
likes your voice and says you are musical:
and o certainly are.'r
"Such praise should surely gratify the
heart OF one with musical aspirations"

From the New Mexican.
The unceasipg labor Of the New Mexico
board of education, of the principals Of the
Territorial Institutions and city schools,
of the district school teachers, and last,
but not least. Of the worthy gentlemen
and ladies in charge Of such famous pri-
vate colleges as st. Michael's Academy Of
the Sacred Heart. and many, many others,
have received its just and well. merited
~recompenss.
The educational exhibit Of New Mexico
has not only favorably called the attention
of Americans to our Territory, but also Of
Europeans and of our brothers and kindred
of the great Spanish-America republics:
has proved to the entire universe the false
hoods, bad faith and ignorance of our de-
tractors.
The Worlds Fair commissioners, all men
Of learning and world wide reputation,
charged with the difficult and delicate task,
of awarding premiums, have issued to the
Territorial board of education of New
Mexico 9 diploma and a tronze medal.
Both Of these awards were received yester-
day by Hon. Amado Chayes, the boards
efficient secretary.
1.-THE awards are first, for general ex-
%celience. Second, for meritorious black.
board display of maps and other drawings
OF a high grade. Third, for photographs Of
exterior INT interior, showing good school
equipment. Fourth, chronological speci-
mems OF great scientific interest, repre-
senting insects injurious to plaintiff gen. |
and specially to sugar cane.

A, q Milice arrived from Bali ranch,
%moFHIng. and brings Tho news that the
men who committed tho murder at Lib
were the men whom THE 0rTic de-
yesterday and that they worked al
the Bell ranch, last spring, but when tho
time anne 10 receive their checks they re-
fused TO give their names other than
Welsch and "Setve." Mike McQuaid had
arrested Steve, whose alias IL Red
Buck, up In Colorado, some time
before, for cattle stealing, and both men
are supposed 10 be wanted In Texas. In
stead of taking to tho staked
plai s, the men were tracked down
toward the Pecos country, and at III.
Sumner q posse was organized with a U.
s. marshal, Thomas Kane Inc Mike
McQuaid as leaders, and there are now
prospects that the outlaws will be cap
tured.
They are known to have changed their
horses at Carson's ranch down near
Fort Sumner. The men evidenced, while
they were working IN the Bell ranch, that
they were desperate characters, and It IL
feared that II they are overtaken by the
posse, more lives will be lost before they
are captured.

,NrRR-coLLRoIATR BOAT RACE.
An Eight-Osr Two-MiIe Boat RAGS Between
Yale and Wisconsin, University.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, June Is The
first Intercollegiate boat-race that has
ever taken place between the teams Of
an eastern and a western .cjllege will
occur between 4 and 9 O'Clock this
Afternoon on Lake S%altonstolI. The
event will be an eight.oar, two.mile
straightway she'll rae between the
Yale freshmen team and the regular
team of the University Of Wisconsin.
The Wisconsin crew has been in train
ing at Lake Saltonstall' for over a week,
and competent judges are inclined to
think that their chances for success are
good, as the Yale team Is hardly up to
the freshman standard of previous
years. The race had been arranged
for q later date, but was afterward set
for to-day in order that 1t might take
pace IN the presence OF eli the z,500
students. Guy Richardson, Of Colum-
bia, will referee.

Interesting Meetings.

New Mexico may well be proud OF her
Territorial w. G. 7. U. Notwithstanding
the great isolation Of the local unions and
the high rates Of travelling, six dele
gates from a distance were here ready for
duty yesterday morning.
Mrs. NJ. j. Borden, Mrs. w. P. Stamm,
Mrs. f. E. B%urlingams and Mrs. Berry are
present from Albuquerque. Miss Lulu
Hamilton and Mrs. Riggle from Socorro.
! The forenoon was devoted to the appoint
| ment of committees and hearing of reports,
| the afternoon was occupied chiefly with
the children's entertainment, who did
themselves and their teachers credit.
Mrs. Scott gave a most interesting talk to
| the children who followed her closely in
! her short speech and showed by their ans
| wers to her questions that they understood
many of her illusions to the human body
in regard to the use OF alcoholics. These
boys and girls of to-day are the country's
| citizens of to- morrow and are being trained
to make strong ones.
DR.. Rice reported relative to scientific
instruction in the public schools, and Prof.
j. A. Wood said about all of the towns in
the Territory teach temperance In copnec-
ton with physiology in the schools.
The evenings session beginning at 5
O'Clock was CT a very pleasant and i~nstruc-
tive character. Miss Luln Hamilton con-
Quoted a short praiss service, after which
Mrs. j. A. Carrlth In her own pleasing
.-.x -,oloorood tho vioittnn 1aIanafno IN
the homes of Las Vegas.
Mrs. Mary RiggIe, of Socorro, responded
to the welcome extended ny the local
president. Mis-. Rankin delighted all with
a beautiful solo folio wing which was Mrs.
Borden's annual address, a very able
comprehensive production. She dwelt
upon the Armenian question, the strides of
various philanthropic organizations are
making in securing needed legislation,
the work Of some individuals whose
names names are blazoned on the memoir
les of lovers of the good and the advance
made in the Territory during the pastyear
10 their different departments of work.
At the close of her address, which was re-
ceived with applause, Major Scott gave a
short talk, which made one feel that to
miss hearing his lecture Friday night,
would be a serious loss to him who can not
be present. Miss May fuckers two min
ute talk on s18 to |" was followed by a
very liberal offering of the purses silver
lining-which was substantial proof Of the
peoples appreciation OF the evenings pro-
gram.
Tonight, the Demorsst medal contest
will be given, to which a cordial welcome
is offered to all.

MEANING or EASTER EGGS.

Eggs have always been symbolical of
Easter. by the Egyptians they were held
as a sacred emblem OF the renovation of
mankind after tho delugc. 10 the Jews
they were onblematic In many ways. They
adapted them to suit the circumstances OF
their history, aud were considered typical
of their departure from the land OF Egypt
eggs were also used In the feast OF the
Passover.
Easter Day IL celebrated In the orient by
various sports and festivities. One OF these
sports among the Christians of Mesopo-
tamil commences on Easter Day and con-
tiaues for forty days. 1t Is the original
Easter sport found in rural America. II
consists IN lighting" with one another
The egg that first breaks Is won by the
owner of the one that Struck It, Another
egg Is at once pitted against the winning
egg, and the game continues until there is
but ono unbroken egg, that one winning
all tho others which have been cracked.
An mathematical print Is employed Us an
Easter gift IN Germany. One OF the most
unique prints OF this character Is preserved
In the British museum. 1T represents three
hens uphoiding basket In which ara de-
posted three eggs ornamented with de-
signs Illustrative of the resurrection. Over
the egg is the "Agnus Del" with a chalice
representing faltk the other eggs bear en-
blems OF charity and hope.
In Russia the men call at their neigh
bors houses early Easter morning. and.
after exchanging the sslutations OF tho
day, exchange gifts OF eggs. The priest OF
the parish Is presented with red egg by
each of his parishioners The peasants on
Easter Day, and for three or four days
after carry one of these eggs In their
hands as token OF the resurrection.
