A New Industry.
fAlbuoucrnue Dem ( crat l

The machinery in the new wOolscour- ing plant was yesterday pronounced to be in readiness for business, and trial run of several hundred pounds of vari- ous grades of wool was made. The pro- cess of securing is explained in detail in another column, but the only way in which to form a correct idea of the rap- idity with which baleof dirty, brown looking wool can be tranformed into a a perfectly clean. white product that looks like freshly picked cotton. is to go to the mail and see it at work.
 MT. Wilkenson, the manager of the new industry, is a practical man in every detail of the wool securing, hav- ing been engaged in it for the greater part of his life. He states that he ex- poets the business to began 8 little slowly for the first few weeks for sev- eral reasons. in the first place until some definite action has been taken on the tariff question prices on wool are bound to be uncertain. and then again the wool growers and merchants of this section who have so long been accus- toned to disposing of their wool just as 1t IS brought In from the ranch will probably be little slow in realizing the benhts that wOuld accrue to them fit was properly freed from grease and dirt before being placed on the market.
 It will pay every wool man shipping L--4 Albuquerque to give this securing proposition a very thorough examina- ton before again paying freight on fifty pounds of dirt in every hundred pound bale of alleged wool.
 It may be said that the wool is sold in Albuquerque. Whatif it is? Some body has to pay the freight when it IS taken to some outside securing mill, and that somebody is much more apt to be the western seller than the east ern buyer.

A Royal Road to Camping Out

v
 Some unique and molerate- cost sum-
 mer outings are lnstructvely described
 in the May Ladies' Hone Journal by
 Daniel c. Beard, who slows & royal
 road to camp life and the .oys of house.
 boat parties, the approximate cost, etc.
 In selecting a camping place Mir. Beard
 counsels the selection of spot which
 'gives the finest possible view ofmoun- talns, lakes or rivers, even if some in convenience must be suffered in the selection. The camp must be dry and we'll drained, so that in case of sudden storms there will be no danger of the water flooding the tents, wetting the bedding or spelling the food, A gentle sloping ground IS best. Avoid locating in the track or below the mouths of in- nocent-looking gullies or ravines, that may, in case of rain, be developed into torrents of muddy water, and sweep the camp like a cloud-burst. A supply of pure water contributes as much to the enjoyment of the campers as to the preservation of health. Common sense will direct that the camp be selected within east reach of some bubbIing spring or fresh uncontsminatcd brook of running water, but there is another thing of paramount importance, and that IS handy supply of fuel" MT. Beard tells how to construct the Ad- Irondacks' camp, the brush covered lean-to, etc., but considers canvas tents the best shelter for campers. "They are transported with much greater ease than the most simply reconstructed port able house A tent may be erected with the expenditure of less labor than any other klnd of camp, and furnishes a comfortable shelter all the year round. A good wall tent. with fiy and wood ell floor. is protection enough for even -- .,-.--s-o ot .-7a
 When you start for camp leave ar and frippenes behind pack ! ed up in camphor, " is Mir. Boards ad-. vice. Bring only your free, untram- meled self with you, and oh! for a frolic for flapjacks and coffee, sweet-srented spruce broughs, camp fires, and the fireside song and the music of the banjo. Let your first care be to secure cheer ful, happy companions as the most im- portant articles for your camping out it."

ons abandoned by the i'll fated Donner party on the desert about 200 miles west of this city in 1846. The story of the party is pathetic one. The emil grants were bound for California. and at Bridger the services of Vasquez, guide and hunter of renown. were se- cured to lead them to their destination by the most direct route. For some reason, when the train reached Echo canyon the party divided. one faction taking the southern route, with Vas | ques as guide, and tbe other, under Donner, proceeded down Weber canyon. via the Devils Gate, thence to the south end of the Great Salt Lake and 1 from there on to the desert. At point 150 miles beyond where TooeIe is now ] located, owing to the clustering heat and the absence of water. part of tho yards the remnants of wagons and the glistening skeletons of the cattle which perished have marked the camping ground. The party after enduring hard
 
 on over the mountains and plains of Nevada into the heart of the Sierra Nevadas and camped near a body of water, which is now known as Donner Lake. There the party, with but one exception, perlshed from cold and hum gry. The survivor finally fell into the hands of friends and from his lips was related one of the most horrible and heart-rending tales ever recorded. That portion of the original party led by Vasquez reached it's haven in the gold fields Of California in safety. The relics arc said tO be in a fair state of preservation and.
