The Seed Record Broken.

Over 2O.OOO,O0O packages of vegeta,
BILE, Hover, and field seed have been
distributed by the department of agrl-
culture during the past spring. This
distribution has gwen 10 each mem Der
of congress 10000 packages of seed at d
total cost OF $500 Over LOCO 200
of these packages were flower seed,
and nearly 800, 700 field Seed the bal

There We're - varieties of beans, III
varities of beets, % varieties of cab

Gent to plant IN area of $50 square
miles, Cr about six times the size OF
the district of Columbia.
This is the largest distribution of
seed ever attempted by The depar,-
ment OF agriculture, ana it is said that
seedsmen all over the country are
complaining that they do not make
sales to farmers and others because
they are getting all the seed they want
free from the department of agricul
ture.
The distribution of seed in 1893
amounted TO $500 packages for each
member Of congress. at d total cost of
S66, o4S: in 1894 each congressman got
5000 packages, the entire cost 10 the
Cove rnment being S51 ,OO6; in 1895 the

ed was the same as in the previous
year, but the total cost was reduced to

Rather Unusual.

The senate committee on military
affairs has refused TO confirm the no.
minatiOn of Lieutenant COlOnel Henry
f. NOyes, Secunu cavalry, as colonel
because IF that officers carelessness in
the matter of contracting debts which
he is unable 10 pay. This course is al
mostwithOut precedent in the history of
our military service The usual course is
to court martial au officer who neglects
to meet his obligations, but to refuse
promotion to man whose conduct is of
that order which permits him to hold
his commission-such a thing has hard
ly ever been heacd of b. fore.
Lieutenant Colonel Moves was ap-
pointed to the military academy from
Massachusetts and graduated in the
class of 1861, being assigned to the
Second dragons second lieutenant
A year later he was promoted to frs.
lieutenant and transferred to the Sec
cond cavalry. In 1860 ne became q
captain, aud in 1879 he was made a
major and again transferred to Fourth
cavalry, in which regiment he served
until promoted as lieutenant colonel
in 1891, when he joined the Fifth
cavalry.
In August, 1892, he went back to his
old reg iment, the Second cavalry, and
has since remained with this Organiza-
ton. 1t is understood that in several
instances the lieutenant colonel bor-
rOwed money from enlisted men, which
he has neglected to repay. 1t is also
said that Il speedy son has been to
great extent the cause of the officers

Buried in JuareZ.

The remains of the late Christia
Schugt were brought up last evening
from San PedrO and atIer an inquest
held by the Juarez coroner, funeral
obsequies were held at the old church
prior to lnterment in the Juarez GENE
terry.
There was no autopsy further than
that DR.. SamaLies made supe rficial
examination of the bo1y and found the
deceased had been shot three times,
one shot entering the head between
the eyes, another passir g through his
left side and piercing the heart, while
the third bullet passed through his
right SIDE, just below the pple of the
breast, Anyone of which would ended
fatally.
Mr. Scnugt had been trying to Sc
parate and quiet Two de>peradoes who
were shooting uu the town, when they
turned on hun with murderous effect.
However, Mr.. Schugt defended him
self to some effect, for he killed one OF
the drunken vaqueros, the other eecap-
ing. Mrs. Schugt was so PROSTATE d
by the shock that she was I'm bic to
attend the funeral. DE-. Scnugt and
family and many friends from both
Ell PasO and Juarez attended the fun
eral.

PinafOr'e.

The second pr esentation of Pinafore
was given last night in The opera house
before $40 house. There was much
more spice and dash in the acting than
before, but there were SO many bitches
that in one sense the programme might
have been called a Chapter of accidents.
Several parts We're forgotten, right
parts were Inserted ia wrong places,
and the absence of an orchestra and
visible conductor, had Il disastrous eff
feet on the general ensemble work.
Miss Beall, the pianist, cid more than
could have been expected of her. But
she could not very well play and direct
| toe, as she was situated. The footl ghts
glared in the faces of the singers who
We re unable to see Miss Beall where
she was sitting, and there was no one
to wave the directing baton. The in
Temptations didn't work. Some were
cute, but others, as for instance the
gallo plug Of the marine three or four
tunes across the stage after the mid
shlpmlte upset things. Mr.. Welch
the captain had not been apprised of
this insertion" ana when ne heard
the racket repeated several times,
imagine d there must be al accident or
fire or suthin' out OF the way going
on, and it knocked him out for few
seconds until he got on his sea legs
again.
Miss Ullman sang an Interpolation
in the place of the serenade 10 the
moon, and received deserved encore
Miss Shelton in her lovely solo that
came afterwards received an encore
and would have responded but for the
admiral who seemed in a hurry to get
through. Mr.. Irwin who sang so well
in the first performance lost his bear
ings as to the key several times, but
toe fine quality of his voice showed up
well. MIR. WestOn's voice is great
improvement on what it was few
months ago, SO that he has just and
reasonable expectations of making
good thing of it when be goes east.
The rest ne has given it has done il
good. Mr.. Beacn, the teuor, saag as
usual with fine vOcaiization, and the
admiral, Mr.. Earl, showed himself pos
sessed of a fine baritone voice that has
justly brought him into prominence
Mr.. Welch S voice was good and pleas
ing to listen to, though not strong.
Mrs. MasOn's acting was immense, and
if the MikadO is ever given here, she
should be given Katishaw.
Toe lemonade between the acts kept
many men from going out and making
nulsances of themselves.

A Crupl Joke.

Austin sdispatch: Capt. Dick Ware,
United States marshal OF this District,
is a great Joker and never misses an
OPPORTUNITY to work joke on some
good friend. The captain and District
Clerk Jim Hart, of this city, have been
intimate friends for years and recently
the captain took notion to make the
district clerk the vic i'm of one OF his
Jokes. knowing Col. Harris fondness
for Mexican cigars, the captain pro.
cured one of the largest he could find
and ran half a dozen small rubber bands
through. Meeting Col. Hart in his
office, he handed him the lOaoed cigar
and it is needless to add that 1t was
readily accepted. Col. Hart at once
lighted his "Mexicana, as he terms
them, and was soon lOlling back in his
big arm chair while a cloud of blue
smoke, having the fragrance of barn
ward zephyr, encircled his head. Away
he pulled at his favorite weed, his
fancy painting majestic castles in each
puff of smoke, until at last the ''Mexl-
cana'' was finished, then turning to
Capt. Ware, the colonel said lanRuid-
ly: Dick, that's the finest thing l
ever smoked: can't you send me box
of them?"
With this Capt. Ware could contain
himself no longer, and telling how the
cigar had been loaded with rubbers,
he burst into a fit of laughter and
laughed until his sides were sore, the
others, with the sole exception of Col.
Hart, Joining in the laugh. 1t was
sometime before Col. Hart could appre-
ciate the joke, which he finally did,
however, being somewhat of joker
himself, but since that day he has
never asked the captain for another
'.Mexicana,' nor could he be prevailed
upon to accept one from him. In fact
Col Hart says he don't like Mexican
cigars, "nohow," aud especially so, ii
they come from Dick Ware.

The SOnbferO.

The question OF what is the best hot
we gather hat is being discussed in the
United States. which has just been
superheated again in the unpieasa
way that hot waves have. Some peo-
pie are arguing for the lOw-crowned
straw hat of every day fashion, but
that hat is positively of no use under a
broiling sun, although better than the
pot hat or derby. Mexico long ago set
the example of the only true hot-weath-
err hat, in the felt OmbrerO which has
many reasons to justify its existence.
In the first place, the broad brim shields
face and neck, while the sugar-loaf
CT own, rising far above the head, con-
taips an air space and keeps the head
cool. On horseback, no hat is more
picturesque nor is any riding costume
more appropriate Than the charro, or
short jacket and tight trOuser suit. On
the hot roads of interior Mexico, as
ceDding steep mountain trails crossing
sandy stretches under u blazing sun,
the sombrerO and the charro dress are
seen to be the best possible devices for
keeping out the heat. In this country
the danger of "insolac au," or sun
stroke, is recognized, and the som brero
is to protect against it.
Beneath the overhead sun OF the
tropics no hat is more inappropriate
than the derby, its narrow brim afford
ing no grateful shade for the eyes and
its low crown giving no protection to
the top of the head, while the back of
the neck is utterly unshielded. Only
fore gn fashion has brought the hat of
northern climates, where dull days
prevail, into this country. The light
straw sombrero, trihe smaller in
brim than the hat for country wear,
was once much worn on our streets, but
the ugly derby has displaced it.

Munising fever and other attractions
from new, promising settlements, filled
our depot landing with the many arti-
cles of house furniture; some houses
were vacated, and many, with fearful
eyes, left their friends, whom, in more
than one case, they would now like to
see and live with again.
A moving" and family depar-
ture" always most wildly brings be-
fore our mind the sad pictures of evic-
tions and emigrant departures which
we have SO often witnessed in dear, old
Ireland.
EVICTED! One of the most distress
sing features of English rule in Ireland
has been the prevalence of evictions of
Misunderstanding that is tenants who
have no leases, and who occupy their
farms at the pleasure of the landlord.
This unfortunate class of people can be
evicted whether they pay their rent
promptly or otherwise, and the land
lord has the power to raise the rent at
any time that may suit his purpose.
How often did we see the Irish peas
ants cabins violently battered and
.'gutted," by the sheriff's posse and the
hated emergency men," RACED to the
ground or padlocked, the scanty furni-
ture scattered in the snowror rain, the
disconsolate parents and children
standing or sitting On the ruins of the
loved place where their forefathers
had lived, prayed and labored, yet be-
ing looked upon by the ever rapacious
landlord as strangers in their native
land. This we witnessed often and Of
ten under the glorious sway of Victo-
ria. Where do these desolate families
find refuge? If without money or cred
it, in the poor house. If they have
little cash or can borrow enough to pay
their passage, in America, the land Of
the free, or in distant Australia.
Here in Eagle River, no tenants-at-
will, no evictions; house rent cheap;
provisions plentiful, and farm of for
ty, eighty or q hundred acres can be
purchased for small sum; no land
lord: Every one can be his own land
lord, proprietor and master.
Ito be continued.

We had no hesitancy last week in
wishing Mr.. and Mrs. Morey JOY and

tie of the finest of wines and large

vending their way into our sanctum
last Monday, with the Compliments
of Mr.. and Mrs. Morey," we fell on our
knees and almost wished that we had
the power to shower blessings upon
them. We felt as though there were
yet a few people who realized the hard
lot of printer; who knew that we
were but mortals and loved wine and
cake as we'll as others; and as we sat
and slipped the wine and ate the cake
we wished them joy and prosperity
such as few are allowed to have. May
Gods greatest gifts and blessings al
ways be showered upon them and
theirs and may their table always hold
such wine and cake as those which
found their way to our sanctum, and
may they always remember that poor
printer is never allowed such treats on
~ through the kindness Of friend, is
now, and always will be, our earnest
prayer.
