SUICIDE AT WALPOLE.

Leon Coolidge of FeIchviIIe Died Lust
Night---FOrmerly of Bellows Falls
and BrattIebOro---a Case of Unrequit-
ed Affections.
Leon Coolidge, 20, died at Walpoe. n.
H., last night at o'clock from the effects
of dose of powdered opium taken with
suicidal intent. The young man had been
employed for several months past in c.. c..
Davis's drug store at Walpole. He visited
Chester over Sunday, and it is supposed
that he was rejected by young woman of
that town to whom he had shown atten-
ton. He was very detected after his re-
turn. He closed the store at Wednes-
day night and went to his room at Mr..
Holden's house. 1t is supposed that he
took the drug Immediately. He did not
appear at the store in the morning and
when his room was visited he was found
in the bed unconscious and breathing
heavily. Physicians were summoned at
once, and they worked over him through
out the day, but without avail.
Coolidges home is in Felchville. His
father and mother are deaf mutes. The
family have lived in Bratteboro and Bel.
lows Falls and young Coolidge attended
school in those places. He was a nephew
of H. o. Coolidge of Brattleboro. His
father and other relatives were summoned
to Walpole this morning.

"HOW Did She
Burn Her Face 4"
That Was What People Asked
About Our Daughter
Dreadful Itching, Burning Erup-
tons Cured
smooth, soft, Whlte skIn Now.

Smooth, Sort, White Skin Now.
&C. l. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass:
Gentlemen: Our little daughter is now
four years old. When she was about three
months old, she had eruptions on her face
which were very disagreeable, and itched
SO much, especially at night, that it made
her trouble a great deal worse. | was
obliged to keep her hands tied at night
and it was necessary to watch her during
the day. She would scratch herself when
ever she had the chance, until her clothes
Would Be Covered with Blood.
We had great many doctors to see her,
out they did not help her in the least 1t
was a terrible task to care for her. When
we took her away from home, people
would ask, How did that child burn her
face2' She was completely covered with
scabs for long time. She suffered every
thing. At last we concluded to try Hoods
Sarsaparilla, because l had great faith in
it, and after awhile we could see that she
was getting better. People said she would
certainly be left with scars on her face,
but she was not. 1t is now a year since
she was cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla, and
her face is as
Smooth and White and Soft
as that Of any child. l believe Hoods
Sarsaparila to be the best family medi-
cine that can be obtained. l take it my
self for headache and that tired feeling,
and have found nothing to equal it. One
popularity about Hoods Sarsaparilla is
that it is pleasant to take and it is no
trouble to induce children to take it, The
doctors pronounced my little girls disease
to be eczema, or salt rheum." MRS.
WILBUR WELLS, Warren, Connecticut.

KEEP up the agitation for statehood
and success will surely crown the well
directed efforts of the citizens of this
territory. There is no question about it,
statehood for New Mexico must be ac-
complished during the present admins
tration. Conditions will never be more
favorable for it's admission than at pres
ent. The proposition has an ardent sup
porter in both President Mckinley and
Governor Otero. OF course Delegate Fer
gusson will work to this end, and he can
do great deal. He should be impressed
by citizens from all parts of the territory
with the necessity of strong action by
frequent correspondence on this subject.
1t all helps. Let our delegate in congress
understand by frequent letters that there
is strong and growing sentiment in
favor of statehood which must be needed.

HER LAST APPEARANCE,

While Queen Victoria will, if she has
her way, die queen, she has decided to
retire from the exercises of all public
functions. Queen Victoria has never
been much of believer in that divinity
which doth hedge about king"--or
queen-and has freely moved about
among all classes and conditions. The
queens positively last appearance" was
great success. At the close of it she
rode around through Kensington-where
she was born--and then journeyed back
to Windsor, where it is announced that
she will hereafter remain, with occasional
sojourns at Balmoral, in Scotland, and
Osborne, in the Isle of Wight. This is
the queens own program for her remain
ing years, but it does not imply sad re-
tirement or gloomy seclusion. The
Prince and Princess of Wales, who have,
indeed, performed much of this work in
the past, will appear for the queen on
public and ceremonial occasions, and the
old Queen of England, with her three
residences in the extremities and the
center of the British kingdom, will con
tinue to sign her name Victoria, Queen
and Empress, up to the inevitable hour

NEWS FROM HOPEWELL.
The Latest Improved Platan. Clerici
ElectrO-cyanide Plant PIeases
the HOpeweil Miners.

Hope WE'LL New Mexico, June 29.-Har-
old Martin, an expert from Denver, came
in today to take charge of the electro
cyanide plant.
Mrs, j. j. Davis of Santa Fe, is here
visiting her daughter, Mrs. Z. B. Sew.
ard
Edward Henry of Las Vegas, spent sew
eral days here last week, visiting with
George H. Hutchinson, and looking after
his property interests. He was very
much pleased with the camp and predicts
bright future for it. Messrs. Henry and
Hutchinson have some very promising
claims here aud are developing them in a
systematic manner.
E. @. Sterling of Cleveland, o., is here
visiting his brother, Edward O., the as
sayer.
d. M. Bashsm killed large Cinnamon
bear the other day. He caught it in

to cut the main vein. A fragment of rock
blew out of the tunnel yesterday, strik-
ing j. I, Mckinley on the hand and in
capacitating him from labor. This shows
that Manager Pace ran straight tunnel
and is onto his job
William Peet of Tres Pledras, was here
yesterday looking after the prospects in
the Buckhorn mine. Messrs. Sterling,
Hutchinson and Roy, leasers, have struck
some very rich ore and that property is
now away up.
Reasoner Smiths new restaurant build

Hopewell is blessed with first class
hotel as far as table service is concerned.
Prospeotors are coming in every Gay
and the camp is on the eve of genuine
| boom.
The Platan-Clerici, electro-cyanide plant
came in Saturday evening. The miners
burned much powder and rejoiced other
wise at its arrival. Men are busy putting
| it in place, and both the stamp mill and
cyanide plant will be grinding away n9xt
week.
The Platan. Clerici process precipitates
the gold on copper plates within nina
hours after pulp is placed in the watts.
Other cyanide processes require eight or
nine days to bring about the same re-
suits Several mines will furnish ores
for treatment and the new mill will give
employment to 40 or so mill hands,
teamsters and miners. It is a very valu-
able acquisition to the camp.
The Clnnabar shaft is down $50 feet.
In cross-outting at 23 feet they cut
through rich, free gold vein of 26 inches.
The owners, who live at La lara, Colo,
are now considering whether it is best to
drift with this vein or sink another so feet
and then drift. They were to hold a
meeting of stockholders last Saturday,
but it is not yet learned what they con-
Guided to do.
There are other properties which have
shown up we'll the last week or two and
they will be noticed in another letter.

aud more disposed to take the reins OF
management into his own hands. This
would indicate that the mental malady
which has for some time been reported
as affecting his majesty is making prog
ress. No emperor in his sound senses, in
such country as Germany, would now
take steps toward absolutism. If Fred.
erick, called the Great, were now emperor
of Germany, as he was once king of
Prussia, he would know better than to
attempt personal and despotic rule, and
it is sheer madness on the part of this

THE WORD COMFY"

Referring to the word "only" as used by
the Democracy in its quibbling with the
tariff, we are reminded of an incident
which took place in Illinois some years
ago. Some difficulty was felt in procuring
anyone who w8s willing to sacrifice him
self by accepting a nomination as candi-
date for governor on the Democratic
ticket. At length, however, the late
Carter Harrison "brought his courage to
the sticking place." and resolved to make
the run, with this condition, however, that
the words "a tariff for revenue only"
should not be used in the platform. Here
was snag. The Dem ocracy had juggled
with the language in every possible way
sentence said as little and as much as
could be expressed in one phrase. Carter
was resolute in his demand and would
not yield, so after long session of care
full and prayerful effort brilliant idea
oufuSh tio colhlnlupeo VI Plholoru anu ~
gravely reported that 1--WE, the Democracy
of Illinois, declare that we favor "a tariff
only for revenue." Carter expressed
himself as perfectly satisfied and stripped
for the race. The able Democratic organs
spent the entire campaign in explaining
the difference between "a tariff for revenue
only" and "a tariff only for revenue" then
the people took hand in it and buried
Garter and his platform under an avail
anche of votes.

1t seems to you that that
tickling, hacking cough is all
in the throat. But your doc
tor will tell you that this SEN
sation is often deceiving. The
cough is often the signal Of
deeper trouble in the bron-
chial tubes or in the lung
tissue itself. These inAamed
membranes can only be
healed by treating the system.
For all lung troubles, espe-
cially in the earlier stages, no
remedy equals Scott's Emul-
sion of Cod-liver Oil. Its
special power is in healing
the inAalned tissues of the
lungs.

A TIMELY RECOMMENDATION.

The prompt reply of Delegate Fergus
son to the New Mexican regarding the
National cemetery, and the tone of this
reply, would indicate that the desired end
may be accomplished at no distant day,
The appropriation desired for the work
as outlined in the article which appeared
in the NEW MEXICAN some days since
is really very small affair and the gov
eminent ought not to refuse. There 10
some grass seed to purchase and the
present allowance to the water company
would have to be doubled. This is all,
and the results which would speedily fol-
low this small outlay on the part of the
government would more than Justify the
expenditure. Then there is another point
which has not been mentioned that would
undoubtedly induce the officials at Wash
ington to act at once, could it be put be-
fore them in favorable manner. At the
present time the government is paying
two or three men to take care of the
ground. The labor Is great because not
a weed or blade of grass is allowed to APP
pear above the surface. Gould this broad
expanse, which looks like big garden
bed juss raked over and put to seed, be
covered with fine lawn, the expense of
caring for it would be reduced about two
thirds. One man with a lawn mower
could easily keep the place in fine condi-
ton, whereas three are now employed in
keeping down weeds and grass. So as a
matter of economy it behooves the gov
eminent to to take immediate cogniz-
ance of the NEW MEx1oAN's recommends
