Yesterday was the regular meeting OF
the Hancock council, but no quorum was
present. However, Mr.. Senter, OF Houoh-
ton, being present revision OF the or
dinance, regulating the transporting OF
explosives through the village, which the
powder company, represented by Mr..
Senter, desires, was discussed.
The ordinance, az it now stands, abso-
lutely prohibits the transporting of ex-
plosiyes through the village, and pen
atty OF 5000 is attached. However, the
necessity OF the company and the lay OF
the village has been taken into considera-
ton and the fact that the company has
Tor ten years done what the ordinance
was framed to prevent has been winked
at. The company each summer trans
ports it's stock by water and unloads
directly into the magazines, but in the
winter they usually have several car
loads come by rail and this has to b,
unloaded at the D., s. 8. & A. freight
depot, hauled across the lake and through
the village to the powder house in West
Hancock. There is no other route. The
company has always had the 5000 pen
atty hanging over it and at any time felt
that some administration in Hancock
might jump on them.
Mr.. Senter argued yesterday the very
little risk there is in so doing. He said
In his forty-eight years experience in the
copper country hauling powder over
every kind OF road and for many miles
there has never been an accident. Ht
admitted the possibility. but called at
tention to the fact that our mining com
panies must have their supplies Of dyna
mite and he urged that this was one o
the exigencies OF life in a mining coun
try.
The revision OF the ordinance is urge
along the same lines as similar one II
towns in the iron country. That tn
hauling be done in the day time AM
under the supervision Of the village au
thorities.
The village attorney was not present
there being no meeting, and OF course th
matter rests until a meeting. It is

Innovation to allow, by a REVISION OF the
existing ordinance, what has tacitly been
allowed under IL.
The people have in a way expressed
themselves on the matter by making no

Doctors say that consumption can't
be cured. But when they see it cured
right under their face and eyes by DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
they admit that there's something
wrong about their argument and some
thing wonderful about the dis
covery." 1t isn't miraculous. 1t wont
cure every case; but it cures a surpris-
ingly large percentage of cases; even
when the patient is pretty far gone
with bad cough, and bleeding from
the lungs, and reduced almost to a
shadow. Consumption is a blood dis
ease. The lungs want fresh supply
of pure, rich blood and plenty of it.:
that is what the Golden Medical Dis
covery" gives them. 1t is a blood
maker. 1t gives the blood-makiug
functions power to produce a large
quantity of the nourishing red corpu-
scles which make healthy fe-giving
blood. This stops the wasting; drives
out the Impurities heals the liberation
and begins rapid building-up process,
of solid, substantial and vital energy.

Dastime: it is factor in the economics
of everyday life. Furnishing as it does
the most concrete form OF individual
rapid transit, it has become indlspeu-
sable to all its devotees, VINO are found
in every walk in life
The bicycle few years ago used to
be sold to the youth. Today some OF
the largest Gus oOmers are corporation S
and governments, who buy them for
their messengers, inspectors, police
men and letter-carriers. This has con-
tributed to the tone of the trade. Sup
ply and demand are no longer problem
attic, but can now be calculated with as
reasonable certainty as any Other OF
the staple industries. The cycle show
has now become not so much a spec
tacular display or appeal to the amuse-
mentioning public. 1t is now busy
mart. where for few short days the
business of the year is crowded with a
feyerish haste. Here are brought to-
gether all the representative manu-
facturers, not only OF bicycles, but of
all the constituent PARIS, or materials
that go into their make-up-the JOB
bers, the retailers, aud a large and in
fuential element of the buying public.
1t is the one place and time where and
when an accurate forecast of the COM
ing seasons possibi tiles can be made.
The one point in which the prophets
of the trade are unaui NOUS is that the
reaction from last years overproduc-
ton viii result in shortage of wheels,
and the Immediate result of this has
been a very general stiffening of prices.
Demand-which in the face of
the unusual depression in all lines of
business during the last two years has
grow n enormous UT is expected will
be larger this year than ever before,
and principally for machines of the
better quality. The enormous increase
in the number Of factories and the
amount of capital now devoted to the
manufacture of bicycles has naturally
resulted in competition of unusual
keenneSS.
BICYCLE BITS.

more has mem oerShip of 3O0 and

sioners of Easton, Md, req uiring wheel
meu to pay a licence fee Of 81 year
for riding in the streets of the town,
has been declared illegal by Judge

that the comm ssioners had no right to
raise revenue in that way, at least
without special sanction from the leg

Education in New Mexico.

During the past few years New Mex
leo has made great advances in popular
education. Not only are her common
schools thoroughly established and
well maintained, but three institutions
of higher education are in a growing
condition, and promise to become in
fiuential factors in the educational
progress of the territory.
The school of mines is at Socorro,
and numbers q students. The course
of study covers six years and while the
faculty is yet small every effort is be-
ing made to furnish thorough instruc-
tion in mining engineering. The in
stitution is entirely dependent on legis-
lative appropriation for its support.
The Agricultural college is located
at Las Cruces, and enjoying an income
from the United States, is the best en-
dowed financially of any of the terri
torial institutions. There are nine de-
partments in the college and the en-
rollment shows 149 pupils, an increase
of 40 per cent over last year.
The territorial normal school at Sill
yer City numbers 90 pupils, and 100 are
next year. The course of
study covers four years-one year pre-
paratory and three years of advanced
work. There were six graduates last
year and the graduating class this year
q numbers IL. The school is dependent
on legislative favor for its main
tenance

STATE Or THE BICYCLE INDUSTRY.
The national shows held by the
national board of trade OF cycle manu-
facturers are reliable index of the
bicycle industry. Those held in Chi
cago and New York, which have just
been brought to a close, reflect more
than any of their predecessors the
economic importance OF this business,
which has now grown to such vast pro-
portions. Few, even of the most care
full observers, appreciate the position
it has obtained for itself in the ranks
of Industrial enterprises. A careful
survey of the exhibits at the New York
snow disclosed many interesting facts.
First, that the bicycle itself has
reached that stage in its developm t
where it has assumed standard of de-
| sign in appearance, shape, weight, pro-
| portion Of parts, and the principles of
ste ering, propulsion and weight-carry-
ing that seems to have put it beyond
| the danger of innovation and unripe
experimentation, which have always
| been more or less threat against tbs
stability of the industry. This fact has
| been brought oug by the almost total
absence of freaks of construction at the
shows. There has usually been a stray.
CLING army of these hanging upon the
| outskirts of the business, and though
J they have never made any iproada into
/ the ranks OF the makers who hold to
| the standard forms of construction, yet
| their presence has always been hereto
| fore looked upon as exemplifying the
posi- bility of radical changes, and con-
St gently affecting the stability OF the
trade in the minds OF investors. Their
absence this ysar is very encouraging
sign.
| Another thing that has added to the
stability of the business is the unques-
toned admission of the bicycle to the
list of everyday necessities. It's largest
duty is got as contributor to sport and
