Col. CamDbeIl Re;urns,

Colonel Campbell returned yesterday
from his long trip north. He says he
spent most OF his time at Lake Geneva,
Wisconsin, where ne had very pleas
ant time ard found the weather de-
lightful. He was in Washington but
a few days, and relative to the collect
orship said that OF course he was for
Campbell for collector every time
But, it had been oftan remarked that
the unexpected rather ofteo happened.
So he wouldn't predict; he would wait
and see.
When asked as to the general busi-
ness outlook, Colonel Campbell said tha t
the feeling in Chicago was very good.
In fact people there expected to trans
act $4,000. 900 worth of business in the
next. two months. The, slump in. silver
it was thought, would affect Mexico,
and perhaps along the Mexican border,
but not in the north to any extent.
The hard times seemed to be passin O
away up north.

His by Right of Discovery.

Chief Clerk W. L. Treleaven, of the
Santa Fe freight Office, brings the fol-
lowing story with him from his west
ern trip:
when the trai~ stopped at Larned
Kan, heard q voice say in tone of
command: Come out of there" l
looked out of the car window arc saw
an old man holding tramp who was
just crawling cut from the trucks under
car. l supposed it was the sheriff of
the county, ard that he had caught a
criminal.
"'I want you,' said the old man, as
the tramp sto d on his feet. I'll give
you ST. so a day
"Then it dawped on me. The old
man was out catching farmhands for
the harvest field. A moment later
younger man came up and tried to hire
the tramp, but the older man drove
him away, saying the tramp was his by
right of discovery, ard he proposed To
keep him or hit. The conductor told
ne such occurrences are common at
present, and that there are few stat ions
alcng the line in the grain belt but
have d crowd of farmers around them
at train time hoping to be able to
catch tramp for the harvest fields. 1t
Is work or jail with a tramp when be
falls iuto such hands. ."-Chicago Inter-

Mileage Paid f T. Private Cars.

The latest report of the Interstat te
Commerce Commission contains tab
ulated statement of car mileage paid
by carriers for the use of private cars
for the year ending June 80, 1895, Civ
ing the amount in detail paid by each
railroad for freight cars and passen-
gers cars Gncluding sleeping and
parlor cars) separately, and also the
amount paid TO each of the S54 con-
Germs standing as car owners. Quite a
mum Der of these concerns are practical
ly the same. as, for instance. the
Armour interest, being represented by
seven different corporations. The list
also includes several OF the recognized
fast-freight lines, a small portion of
whose equipment was thus used, but
the amounts paid for these cars are so
small as not materially to effect the re-
suit. The grand total paid out by rail-
road companies for priva'e cars in
freight service amounts to SS, IA OPS
73, sum which is at once startling
and significant. Capitalized at 6 per
cent this would build nearly 300, 900
cars or replace the entire freight
equipment of the country in little
more than than four years. 1t is true
that many of these cars are of special
design, particularly those devoted to
the transportation of fre-h h meat, tank
oil, etc, but allowing for all such ex-
ceptions the amount paid for private
cars constitutes a tax upon the rail
roads of the country which, under pre-
sent crcustances they can lily afford
to bear.

A Labor LEADERS, New Move.

LONDON, August % Something OF
a sensation has been created in labor
circles by the announcement that Jos
eph Arch, the veteran labor organizer
and who for many years sat in the
house of commons as the representa-
tive of southwest Norfolk, being of
ficially classed as "labor member" is
to take to himself a wife early in Sep
tember. The prospective groom is on
the threshold of his SEVENTEEN year.
while his intended bride, who halls
from his country district, is said 20 be
on the suany side of thirty. Joseph
Arch first came into prominence over
quarter OF century ago by original
ing and leading the movement for the
orge nization and amelioration of the
agricultural laborers of which down
trodden class be had up to that time
been one of the most menial mem bers.
His efforts would have been crushed in
their inception had not the late Samuel
Morley, the millions aire philanihropist
and English Pea body" lent his sup
port to the cause and placed many
we'll filed purses at it's disposal. AS a
result the agricultural laborers' union
became one of the strong st labor So

Diet For Thinkers.

The learned German Psychologist,
Moleschott, said in reference to the
diet of the artist and literateur: "Well
baked bread and lean meat, combined
with younger vegetables and such roots
as are easy to digestion and contain q
considerable proportion of sugar, form
d wholesome diet for thinkers and
poets.
ga large quantity of leguminous
seeds, heavy bread, rich pastry ard
greasy meat create those irritable,
morose and almost slender statemen
who have permitted melancholy
thoughts and gloomy imseinations to
eclipse all happier views of life in them,
so that they have come to consider rods
and fetters as the most important pro-
moters and protectors of civilization.
A large body and feshy face may be
suitable for monks and gluttons long
ing for repose, but are not adapted for
men of intellect. Abundance of fat in
the blood of the brain paralyzes
thought and hangs lead upon the wings
of the Imagination. .''-Dietetic and

A MURDER IN JUAREZ
A Policeman was Shot Last Night by
jose Be!trau.


Last night about 10 o'clock murde
was con- mitted in Juarez about half
way between the center of the city and
DR.. Alexander's place. Guadalupe AL
varez is the policeman in that precinct
and hearing great deal of disturb
ance being made at a te9uila joint in
his precinct he went to the joint and
found Nicolas Ledasma, alias Jose
Beltran and several others in Row.
The other parties wanted to leave the
place bnt Beltran would pull them off
of their horses as fast as they would
mount. This was going on when
Policemen Alvarez showed up. He
asked Beltran to 6esist and not to raise
so much disturbance. In answer Bel
tran pulled his pistol and Alvarez ask
ed him what he was going to do: "Ill
show yOu," said Beltrsn and fired. The
ball entered Alvarez's left eye and
killed him instantly. Beltran then
mounted his hor e, rode away and has
not been seen or heard of since. TIE
other parties were carried to jail as
witnesses, but will not be held as they
were in no way connected with the
murder and were unarmed.
The Mexican authorities say that
Beltran is from this side of the river
and is an all round tough character
and the suppositlon prevails in Juarez
that Beltran is now a fugitive from
justice from this side Of the river. The
officers are now out looking for the
murderer and ask the officers on this
side of the river to keep look out for
him.
