The Pullman Palace Gar company, one
of the richest corporations on earth, has
paid taxes in New Mexico during the past
four years as follows: In 1894, $4073; in
1895, $6l08; in 1896, 1893 65; in 1897,
$11750. Tom Hughes and Jim Duncan,
both of whom are honorable men and
were respected members of the last terri
torial council, insist that they do not
sleep on Pullman posses, and that, if a
confiding people again returns them to
the legislature, they will use their best
endeavors to see that Prince Pullman
pays proper taxes in New Mexico. Pull

plenty of shining slips" in the terri
tory, need net necessarily be offended at

Plain Colonel and Senator Thomas
Hughes, editor of the Albuquerque Citi-
zen, secretary of the territorial board of

scribbler in New Mexico, and who is

love him, this morning decorated the
palpitating and manly breasts of the
numerous writer's for the NEW MEXICAN,
with newly minted dimes that he had re-
Gently received in change. At least one
of these dimes will remain in the posses
sion of the possessor thereof until "the
wicked cease from troubling" and then

modestly used at the pearly gates where
Saint Peter is presumed to preside.

CHICAGO's IRISH FAIR.
Mnp of the Emerald Isle Covered With
Virgin Sod.

From the Chicago News.
On hands ard knees, with map Of Ire
land before him. J. A. Lord today crawled
across the dusty boards of the I'd Regiment
Armory, leaving in his wake chaiky out
line of the land Of the 'auld sod
While Mr.. LORD was performing this
caper in Chicago the Ger1nanic was pulling
into New York harbor with many a bushel
of "auld sod" In its mold. By Saturday
morning the Ceramics cargo of sod and
peat will be in Chicago, and before evening
will be spread over the floor of the armory
in GO by 80 map of Ireland that is war
anted to kill snakes in less time than it
takes to kiss the Barney stone. For on
Saturday evening in the I'd Regiment Arm
DRY and Battery the shamrock will
bloom, the shilalah wave and the Irish fair
will begin two weeks engagement.
The first work of actual preparation for
the Hibernian exposition was started to-
day. E. l.. Mcguire, j. A. Lord, fresh from
the New York Irish fair, and Mr. Donohue
hustled through the buildings on the lake
front .it the head of a squad of workmen
and laid out booths, map and a Blarney
stone site. The map of Ireland is expected
TO be the greatest attraction of the fair.
Soil from the thirty-two counties of the
emerald isle will be used In making the
miniature and for fear enthusiastic police
men and other Hibernans may want to
scoop up a handful of soil from their ma
tives counties the management have had
enough consigned them to fill up all gaps
and keep the map in good form during the
fair. To prove that their soil Is genuine,
the management request all persons pos
sessed of snakes, either tangible or in
tangible to place them on the sod, and If
they don't die a season ticket will be pre-
scented to the snake proprietor.
On the stage will be given an electrical
representation Of a day in Ireland. This is
a novelty of sort that has not been seen
In Chicago since the days of the electricity
building at the worlds fair.
band will dispense Irish music every
day, there will be Irish jigs and Irish songs
Gaelic games on Irish sod and a To- cent
charge for walking across Ireland. Around
the island will be a tanbark track on which
an Irish jaunting car. drawn by Irish dom
keys, will carry those who wish to ride,
and in Battery d will be an imitation of
Blarney Castle and the Blarney stone.

From the American Medical Monthly.
The church bell is another one of the
relics of barbarism with which civilization
could readily dispense. Since the general
introduction Of clocks and watches the bell
has really lost its significance. Certainly II
can be classed among the needless noises.'
In the days OF Paulus of Nola, in the year
Of a. D. 400, when the custom first had its
origin, the ringing Of bells may have been
necessary to call people to places of wor.

first church bell-but in this present year.

There Is a truck driver on Greenwich
street, in this city, who stands ready to
demolish any man who attempts to per-
suade him that horseshoes are lucky. He
started up street the other day with load
Of discarded horseshoes, which were to be
delivered to junk shop in the neighbor-
hood. He was hardly under way when the
tail board of his wagon fell out and about
a bushel Of shoes were scattered on the
pavement, and in picking these up one of
them fell upon his foot and injured him SO
badly that he limped for a week. While
he was reloading a rapidly-driven car came
down the street and struck the rim Of his
wheel. demolishing two spokes, and he had
hardly unloaded and started for home, be-
fore his horse took fright and ran away, de-
molishing his wagon and nearly killing him
in the bargain by throwing him against a
pillar of the elevated road. On reaching
home he found three of his children sick
with the measles.
