DELIGHTED WITH SANTA FE
How Mr.. Paul Morton and His Party
We're Entertained in the
Capital City.
THB VISITORS SEEMED WELL PLEASED
Vice President Morton Predicts Pros
porous Future for This City and
Territory - Practical Sugges-
tons Regarding Sugar
Beet Culture.

Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Paul Morton,
third vice president of the Santa Fe sys-
tenn, and party, accompanied by the
mayor and number of prominent citi-
zens, were shown over the city and driven
about the country surrounding. In the
evening the reception in the plaza was
attended by large number of ladies and
gentlemen, and the day, judging from
what the visitors said, proved pleasant
one.
Mr.. Morton was seen at the plaza by a
representative of the New MEXICAN, and
asked what he thought of what had been
shown him. In reply he said:
81 am very much pleased with the city
and its surroundings. Santa Fe will come
to the front rapidly from this time on.
The hard times of the past few years have
operated against this place more than
any other IN the territory. People who
wanted to come here for their health have
been prevented by lack of ready m oney,
but conditions have changed and there
will be large influx of strangers this
fall and winter. am satisfied that there
is no place in the United States that has
a better climate, and the Santa Fe road
will advertise that fact hereafter in an
unmistakable manner. Yes, l think San
ia Fe has bright future ahead. One
thing that astonished me more than any
thing else that I have seen, is the success
that has been attained in the experiments
in the growing of sugar beets in and
around the city. Your people should
grow beets extensively. There is more
money in that industry than the majority
of the farmers know, and climatic condi-
tions here are of the best. l shall take
some Santa Fe beets east to show my
people what can be done in growing them
in the Santa Fe valley. New Mexico is
attracting wide spread attention at this
time, and can see no reason why Santa
Fe should not profit largely from the
capital and new settlers that are rapidly
finding their way into the territory. ]
have had an exceedingly pleasant visit,
and will return east carrying pleasant
memories of the day." Mr.. Morton's
party remained in the plaza until the
people dispersed for their homes, and
then were driven to the depot and left for
the east on the late train.

AMONG THE OFFICIALS.
Leading Question of secretary
Wallace-TransactiO at Sur
veyOr- General's Office
Notes.

Secretary Wallace this morning re-
oeived asomewhat pertinent inquiry from
prominent fire insurance company.
After reoiting chapter XLXIX Of the acts
of the last legislative assembly of New
Mexico, wherein it is provided that no
fire insurance company shall be permit
ted to do business in this territory with
out first having deposited with the terri.
torial treasurer the sum of $4,000, in
lawful money or bonds of the territory
or some county or city thereof, the
manager of the company asks the score

AT SURVEYOR GENERALS OFFICE.
Under authority of the commissioner
of the general land Office, Surveyor Gen.
eral Easley has recently ordered the fol-
lowing mining surveys: An amended
survey of the Monte Cristo mining
claim, Cooks Peak district, Grant conn
ty, Consolidated Smelling & Refining
company of Ell Paso, claimant; an orig
inal survey of the Chance mine, Central
City mining district, Grant county, T. j..
Wissell of Fort Bayard, claimant.
Applications have been received at the
surveyor generals Office for the official
surveys of fractional township IS north,
range Is east, in San Miguel county, and
for fractional township "a north, range
Is east, in Colfax and Taos counties.
In reporting these facts to the New
MEx1oAN's representative, Surveyor Gen
eral Easley remarked that tomorrow
would conclude his forty ninth month of
continuous service in the position he
now occupies, but that he expected soon
to be relieved by his estimable success
sor, Hon. Quinby Vance, of Sierra coun-
ty.
General Easley will probably engage in
the gold mining business when his official
term expires, and he gives it out cold
that he intends to operate in sunny New
Mexico rather than hunt for the precious
yellow stuff among the icebergs of
Alaska.

" ways are innocence itself; the col
ors which give beauty to their feathers
can never be equaled by any painter,
be he ever so skillfuL
Then did you ever notice how tender
and loving they are toward their little
ones? How hard the father works to
supply the birdlings with food? How
bravely they fight to protect the nest
lings from the snakes, who would rob
the little mother of her children? Then
watch the parent bird as it tries to
teach the little ones to fly, for the first
time. And their nests! Did you ever
think of the skill which they show in
building their little homes? One of
these days we may write a letter on
birds nests, aud try to describe some of
the different kinds. There are almostas
many varieties cfnestsas there are styles
of houses where youlive. There are nests
made of sticks, of leaves, of hair, of
clay, of sand and many other sorts.
There are builders among the birds
just as skillful as the men who built the
"sky scraper" buildings at Chicago.
But there are so many nice things to
write about birds that we are tempted
to write too much, for you might get
tired and forget all about it. Now
couldn't you get up little society or
club for protection to the birds? You
might call it the Bird Lovers" per-
haps. Then all the members must
promise to do all they can to prevent
others from killing the birds, or from
robbing the nests. Not only this, but
they must ask all their lady friends to
stop wearing the bodies or the wings of
birds on their bonnets. If they don't
stop this cruel practice it will not be
long before the birds will all be killed.
and boys and girls who are born few
years from now will never see a bird on
the wing, or enjoy the sweet music
which comes from the tree top.

Her Silent influence on the Affairs Of
England.

England.
4 woman's silent influence on the
affairs of a nation is shown in the career
Of Mrs Gladstone. She is not a social
or political leader, nor in any way a
diplomat in petticoats, says an ex-
change. She is responsible, however,
far more than is generally known, not
only for her husbands vigorous health
at his ripe old age, but also for his
great ability to accomplish the amount
of work he has done through his public
life and since his retirement. When he
was in office it was her ceaseless care
that he should not be distracted by any
thing that she could prevent, wopds
that meant remarkable self-abnega-
ton. The interests of a growing family
of seven children, with a fond and
proud mother, might easily have made
considerable demand upon the fathers
attention, but neither these nor any So
cial duties nor household perplexities
were ever permitted to touch his leis-
IRE from statecraft cares. Her watch
fulness has not decreased these later
years. She is still his best physician
and saves his strength in innumerable
ways, trifing in themselves, but i'm
portant in the aggregate and possible
only to one who has made such saving
life study. Blessed herself with eX-
cellent health all her life, she wears her
So years lightly and still shows many
traces of the handsome Miss Glynne
who captivated the rising young NJ. p.
over half century ago.

woman,s influence of Old.

A writer in Mothers Journal is not of
the opinion that women are now, for the
first time, of account in society. She
writes: Women are new in literature
and journalism. Are they? Only the
other day, in a jug dug from the ruins
of ancient Greece, was found what must
have served for a daily paper in those
days, and a woman was one of the writ
ers. Have you any idea that the old
Egyptians doubted for one minute the
political power of woman as they
watched the career of Cleopatra? Was
Miriam's music less inspiring to the He
brew warriors because she was a wom-
an? Anyone might suppose from the
clamOr and ado that we were for the
frat time of account to the world, when,
as a matter of fact, we have been a pow
er-for good or evil-socially, political
ly and morally-since the days of
Eden"

My school roof is the dappled sky,
And the bells that ring for me there
Are all the voices of morning,
Afoat in the dewy air.
Kind Nature is the madame,
And the book whereout 1 spell
Is 'dog-eared' by the brooks and glens
Where know the lesson WELL"
An old Spanish saying is "poco a

let us begin with one of the smallest
of natures wonders, the little bird. II
you should go to Lincoln park, at Chi

and fine plate glass; and in these
cases are thousands of specimens of
minerals, fossils, shells, fish, snakes, ami
mails, birds and many other natural
curiosities. The cases which contain

the stuffed birds are marked caves"
This means that they belong to the
"class" called ayes, the second among
the ''vertebrates," or animals which
lave a skeleton.
The first class has two subdivisions
the flying birds and the running birds
Then these Subdivisions" are still
further divided into ''accipiters" Tor
the vultIre order), ''passeres" Tor
perchers), "scansores" Tor climbers),
"gallinacae" Tor game birds), "gralla-
torres" Tor waders) in the first
subdivision. In the second is
the "brevipennate," or such birds
as the ostrich, cassowary, etc.
For the present we will confne
ourselves to the flying birds-and to
that family" Tor parD commonly
called warblers. Most everyone loves
the song birds-they are so beautiful,
and fill all the air with such delightful
music. Beside this they are always
friendly to those people who love them,
and who don't try to injure them.
There are many things about the song
birds which call for our admiration
and love. Their beautiful forms seem

WORK DONE BY THE SUN.
1t paiIy Raises 245. 200, OOO, 600 Tons OF
w


Water.
1t has repeatedly been proposed to
make use of the enormous power issu-
ing from the sun in the shape of heat
rays. What enormous amount of labor
is done by the sun on this earth alone
is evidenced in part by the circulation
of water on the earth's surface. Every
day the heat of the sun turns into
vapor a large amount of water on all
the watery surfaces, and these rising
yapors are far above us converted into
clouds, which the cool currents of air
carry overland to countries which are
not blessed with plenty of the fluid
element, and upon further condensa-
ton the clouds in the shape of rain
fall upon the earth. In smaller or
larger quantities water streams again
toward the sea, and during this course
man undertakes to withdraw from the
water part of the stored-up power of
the sun, using it for industrial pur-
poses. The Paris meteorological, Prof.
Metericht, estimates the quantity of
water turned into yapor by the sun in
the Mediterranean sea alone on clear,
hot summer day at not less than $780,
100000 tons. At that rate the quantity
of water taken from the entire globe
on one hot day within the limits of the
temperate and tropical zones would
amount to not less than PAS, 900, 100000
tons
