SANTA FE MEN ARRESTED.
Hunter and Galleg0s Arrested In FL
PasO, Texas.

According to the Ell Paso Herald Jim
Hunter and Juan Gallegos, both well
known in Santa Fe, have been arrested
in Ell Paso charged with the robbery of
the Astor gambling hall in that city on
last Saturday. Concerning the affair the
Herald says:
This morning at 10 O'Clock Jim Hunter,
q n.horn gambler, was quietly taken in
by Officers Herold and Taylor and taken
to the county Jail and locked up on the
charge of robbery. He is charged, along
with Juan Gallegos, with beihg the prin-
cipal in the Astor gambling hall robbery
last Saturday night.
Hunter was arrested at the door of the
county court room and took his arrest
very coolly, but showed some temper on
his way to jail and taunted the officers
with being unable to prove anything
against him.
There is no direct evidence against
Hunter, but circumstances point to him
as the man who wore the mask and held
up the gambling table. He is a great
friend of Juan Gallegos and the two have
been together great deal since they have
been in Ell Paso. On last Saturday night
Juan Gallegos was in the Astor House
gambling hall all night, but would occa'
sionally 90 out, and was seen talking con.
fidentially to Hunter in the hallway.
It was uncommon for him to be
there, as he was not frequent tel
of the place. When the robbei
walked in at the back door Gallegos
got behind one of the dealers and as the
latter made a motion as if to draw gun

Pittsburg, July 9.-Developments dur
ing the next IL hours promise to give the
most important bearing upon the miners
strike, and anxiety as to the outcome
prevails on all sides. The result of
conference of prominent labor leaders in
this city today, to consider the PROPOSE
tion for cooperation of the various
trades, is awaited with anxious interest.
President Gompers of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, arrived from Washing
ton this morning. He expressed himself
as desirous of aiding the strikers in
every possible manner.
President Gompers conferred with Col
onel W. P. Rend, wealthy coal operator
of Chicago this morning. The latter
advocated arbitration, and said the con-
ditions of trade will not justify the large
and sudden increase the miners now
claim. He further stated that he believed
the strike would terminate in two or three
weeks, and that the men would compIo-
mise at 60 cents.

THE SITUATION DESPERATE
Right and Left, and Individual
Patrons Are Getting Anxious.

Cleveland, o., July 9.-The situation IN
this city over the coal strike is becoming
desperate. The Cleveland railroads are
growing bolder in confscating coal and
those who depend upon the regular sup
ply, are becoming anxious. The vessel
men take very philosophical view of
the situation. They hold it will improve
fall traffic and that the miners will doubt
less be victorious. The great plant of
the Cleveland steel company closed this
morning, owing to a lack of fuel and
other plants are preparing to shut down.

a Fatal Bomb.

Lexington, KY, July 9.-While six
negroes we're excavating on line of
street railway, one struck what appeared
to be piece of pipe, but which proved
to be 64-pound dynamite cartridge. An
explosion followed, and five negroes were
blown to atoms, and another was SO
badly injured that he cannot recover.
The police are inclined to think the
dynamite was placed there by some mis-
creant, who had grudge against the
street car company.

Absolutely Pure

The sad feature of this Indian village is
the steady decrease in population. Some
Is years ago the pueblo contained 800
people; five years ago the census was
carefully taken, and that number was
found to have dwindled to $50, although
Mirabal proudly stated that he thought
there were "4OO in the village now" A
gentleman who has known these Indians
was asked the reason for this decrease,
and he replied: "Intermarriage has gradu-
ally undermined their constitutions until
the power to resist diseases is almost
gone, and they succumb to the simplest
of ailments. The families rarely consist
of more than five, more frequently three
and four, aud the death rate ia greater
than the birth rate" For the past two
or three years the health of the village
has been unusually good, deaths few, and
there has been slight gain in the popu-
lation, but the first fever or epidemic
that breaks out will more than wipe that
out.
A LITTLE INCIDENT.
For the edification of American ladies
wish to relate little incident which hap
pened during my visit to the pueblo. An
Indian woman of slight build, was pre-
pairing to do the washing of the family.
She first brought from room an ordi-
nary tub and into it puta large bundle of
clothes and wash board. Returning to
the room she fastened lusty youngster
to her back, came out, locked the door,
and then picking up the tub and contents
uhioh sha carriad with her left haud
walked off to the seclusion OF the grove
to do her work. 1t was load that
strong man would have had to borrow
wheelborrow to move.

to Congress ON Monday.

Washington, July 9.-The main topic
of discussion before the cabinet today,
was the message on the subject of cur
rency commission, which has been with
held few days, in reference to the wishes
of many prominent Republicans. After
considering all the objections made
against the presentation of message
during the present session, the president
and cabinet we're still of the opinion, that
in order to follow party promises, the
subject of currency reform should be
treated in message, recommending the
creation of special non-partisan com.

change in the plans of the president, he
will send such message to congress next

PRESIDENT TO COME WEST.

President Mckinley will spend most of
his summer vacation on the shores of
Lake Champlain. He will leave Washing
ton on August 1. He has no plans per-
fected beyond this, but said he would take
a western trip in July, provided congress

TIRED OF OFFICE SEEKERS.
1t is announced on good authority, that
with the presentation to the senate of
the diplomatic and consular nominations
which have already been prepared, and
which will go to the capitol tomorrow,
or on Monday, the president will decline
positively, to make another appointment
to places of this character, until after the
adjournment of congress. This notice is
inspired by a desire to spare useless
opportunities by seekers after diplomatic
and consular places, and also to afford the
president some relief.

Another thing we found was that some
OF the cows would drink very often, /.

all her twenty-four hours supply at
one time, and would only drink little

The large majority of farmers who
own horses seem to be quite anxious to
get rid of them. even at low prices.
Where the farm is mortgaged, and the
horses can be spared better than any
thing else on the farm, this is all right,
as it is better to lose the horse than the
home: but where it is not, we regard it
as very unwise and foolish, says the
Kentucky Stock Farm. In a country
like ours. where one extreme follows
another, it is not wise to float with the
