probable that most Of the time will be

providing for appropriations for the
District Of Columbia, which will next
be taken up. Senator Sherman has an
nounced his purpose not toagain bring
up the arbitration treaty for debate SO
long as the appropriation bills are
pressing for consideration but II there
should be a lull in this work he may
renew his efforts to secure ratification.
Senator IIoar is waiting anxiously to

that he believed the senate could be
brought to pass the bill after few

Nine-tenths of the sickness of women
comes from some arrangement of or
gsns distinctly feminine. Nine-tenths
of this sickness can be cured and avoid
ed by the use of Dr.. Pierca's FavOrite
Prescription. There is nothing mirac-
ulous bout the ''t'avorite Prescrip-
tion''-nothing supernatural. 1t is the
result of rational thought aud study
applied to medicine. It has been pre-
scribed by DR.. Pierce, Chief Consulting
Phj slcian to the Invalid's Hotel and
Surgical Institute. Buffalo, n. Y, for
over 30 years. 1t has made thousands
of women healthy and happy, and has
brought Joy to thousands of homes.
In female weakness it acts directly
and strongly in healing and strengthen
ing the parts that are most severely
tried. 1t clears out impurities and
promotes regularity at all times. To
prospective mothers it is a priceless
boon as, if taken during pregnancy it
so prepares the system for delivery as
to make la Dor almost painless, besides
shortening the period of confinement.

Rocky State of Things.

citizen was riding down Mesa
avenue last night on his bike when his
wheel struck rock in the middle of
the roadway that must have been six
inches in circumference. The rider
was thrown onto his neck in the sand,
and when he rose up he found himself
''out and injured" a Sl2 pair OF pants,
TO say nothing of his wounded feelings
and righteous indignation. He may
sue the city.
This is not the only instance Of
where rocks in the streets have caused
trouble and injury; and unless the city
council takes some action looking
towards. keeping the rOadways free
from these dangerous nuisances, the
city is liable at any time to find dam
age suits on its hands. The rocks are
dropped from wagons hauling building
material Or gravel from excavations,
but with good tail boards and a little
care IN loading, there is no reason why
the rocks should fall out in the streets.
a few judicious fines would bring the
teamSters to their senses.

querque. Now Albuquerque has been
petitioner for just such action for
many years, and sometimes the legis-
lature has been favorable there to. But
there has always been at such times a
Santa Fe man in the gubernatOrial
chair, and against his veto of such a
measure there has never been a time
that a two-thirds majority could be oh
tanned. Thornton like all his prede-
cessorS was Santa Fee man, but he was
speeding towards Washington on offic-
ial business, and Secretary LOrin Mill
err who is an intense partisan of and re-
sides at Albuquerque, was for the time
being occupying the gubern atorial
chair. Instantly upon the intrOd uction
of this bill into the legislature, it be-
came apparent to the partsans of Santa
Fe that there was great danger of the
bill going through the legislature and
being approved by the acting governor,
and at once bedlam broke loose
For three days the citizens of Santa
F'e met behind closed doors to consider
ways and means for defeating the meas
ure, and for three days the six demo-
Gratis in the legislative council looked
innocent and waited. The kilograms
announce this morning the confirma-
tion OF all the appointments slated by
the governor. from which it appears
that Governor Thornton sacrificed
some of his appointments in order to
keep the capital from being removed.
The bill was pending before the lower
house and it's fate was evidently settled
by the appointments which have been
made. A. B. Fall was appointed and
confirmed solicitor general Hon. w
E. Martin, of Socorro coonty, as coal
oil inspector; MIR. Young, of Dona Ana

or. When he got in what did he do:
He just simply picked up a pen and
framed a deadly proclamation against
gambling and they were thrown ou' OF
business. The gamblers fear More
head and want Mr. Magoffin. whom they
