OF Centemporaneous Human InserssA

Augustin DAILY has given one phrase
10 American literature that, whatever
may be it's defect as a logical statement,
has taken such deep root in current
English that 1t is doubtful whether It
can possibly be eradicated, and probably
never will be dislodged. The phrase is,
"O contemporaneous human interest. I"
Mr.. DAILY employed 1t originally in de-
scribing one Of his adaptations of the
plnybill The literary critics scored the
phrase unm ,rcifully at the time and
tried to ridicule 1t out Of existence. but
Il seems that despite the irresistible
conclusion that no play could possibly
possess any interest for trees or cattle as
distinguished from "human" creatures
Mr.. DAILY had filed long felt want
with it, for it Is now met with increas-
ing frequency. Doubtless every one who
uses it does SO under mental process
charging the responsibility on DAILY, but
It is one Of those winged phrases that
drops in like ali old time friend whose
clothes are nos above criticism. w ash

Tho meeting Of business men with the
Ladies' Relief, last evening, at the city hall,
was largely attended and showed by the
number present, the high esteem IN which
the Home Is held by the city.
Mayor II. u. Olney called the meeting to
order and Hon. Felix Martinez was elected
chairman and Geo. W Hartman, secretary.
Mayor 0lney, In a short but impressive
talk, told Of tho good the Home had done
for the poor OF the city, as well as those
from other parts of the Territory and other
states, that had been so unfortunate as to
find themselves without means OF support,
when they were too unwsll to earn them.
On motion OF Mrs, q. W. Hartman. the
chairman appointed . committee, consist
ing of himself, Mayor Olney and sx-Mayor
Henry, TO draft resolutions to be transmit
ted to the legislature.
Mrs. DR.. Rico, as president Of the Ladies'
Relief, gave a verbal statement, as to the
mount Of help tho Home had given to the
INDECENT, during the past year. stating, alss,
that the Home bad saved the city several
hundred dollars by procuring transporta-
tion home TO patients who had recovered,
md who would otherwise have been thrown
on the charity Of the city.
The treasurer laid before the meeting the
receipts and expenditures of the Home, for
the last fiscal year, which showed that II
required nearly $500 a month to run IL, and
stated tina the Territory was delinquent
between $500 to sl,Ao0 Of It's last APP
preparation.
Upon inquiry, the chairman outlined to
the ladies the mode Of procedure In paying
back accounts, from moneys received from
the Territory.
A. MCGEE told the meeting that as the
ladies had asked very little of the city, and
as they could not use the funds OF the Ter
ritory for that purpose, the citizens should
see to 1t that many needed repairs about
the Home were made.
DIR. Olney moved that q committee OF
three, with A. McGee ~ chairman, be APP
pointed to look after the repairs and inn
provements; the motion carried, and A.
McGse, N. B. Roseberry and r. B. Rice
were appointed as such committee.
A vote OF thanks was extended to Coun-
cilmen j. s. Duncan and Placido Sandoval,
as we'll as the entire Legislature, for their
efforts in behalf of the Home, and ON mo-
tion it was ordered telegraphed to them.
On behalf Of the city, 8 vote OF thanks
was rendered the Ladies' Relief for their
heroic work, and in return, Mrs. Hartman
thanked the citizens for the interest mani
tested in their work, after which the meet
adjourned.
