sOCORRO COUNTY.

The Royal mining company has been
organized in Socorro, by the election of
j. M..Tyler, president; Joseph Price, vice
president; W. M. Driscoll, secretary; E.
l.. Browne, treasurer. The company
owns the Mogul group of claims in the
Bull of the Woods mining location, and
begins work at once, contract for $50
feet of development having been let.
Last week W. G. Hammel and A. Emig
made big gold strike on their claim in
the Socorro mountains. The find was
unexpected as they we're looking for a
continuation of very rich silver lead,
when a vein of rock carrying free gold
was opened up. The gold is simply
plastered on the rock, and if the ore body
continues to improve will not only enrich
the owners, but make Socorro a great
camp.

HEATED SCHOOL DISCUSSION AT EDDY
The New Mining Mill Now Under Con-
struction in the Cochiti District Will
Be Completed and Ready for
Operation Within the Next
80 Days.
EDDY COUNTY,

The W. @. L. U. of Eddy propose 70
provide Eddy with public fountain, and
the businessmen will aid them in the
undertaking.
The Eddy Argus says: "Ihe date Of
the court term is still unsettled, but there
are indications that the wheels of justice
will not grind till the fall months"
Professor E. O. Creighton and R. S.
Hamilton have purchased j. W. Mullins
interest in the Roswell Register and will
hereafter conduct the paper as an inde-
pendent sheetTith Republican proclivi-
ties.
James Mcmillan, a carpenter employed
on new building i'll Eddy, fell from
day of last week, and sustained a broken
rib and several serious bruises.
The English colony at Eddy is prepar-
ing for the proper observance of Queen
Viotoria's birthday, on June 90. ban
quet will be given at the Windsor hotel,
which will be attended by about 80 loyal
subjects.
The town Of Eddy is all torn to tatters
over the appointment of principal for the
public schools. Abouthal the population
petitioned the school board to appoint a
woman to the position, and the board
complied with the request. Now the citi'
zens are bowling because mans salary
is to be paid to the appointee.
It ia estimated, and very conservative,
ly too, that distributed among the bee
keepers in Eddy county are l 400 hives of
bees. Placing the average annual pro-
duction of honey at so pounds to the hive,
very low, would aggregate 10000 pounds.
At 10 cents per pound this amounts to
$1,000, quite nice little item, and the
bee business is yet in its infancy.
SAN JUAN COUNTY.
Judge Albert White of Jewett, this
spring plowed under considerable of his
alfalfa and planted corn on the land.
Next fall the judge expects to sell several
thousand pounds of corn-fed pork, as a
result of the experiment.
The Atlantic g. Pacific will build
wagon bridge over the San Juan river, at
a point most convenient to shippers, for
the purpose of getting freight from the
country around Aztec. In addition the
business men of Gallup and Albuquer-
que have subscribed $1,000 to be ex
pended in building road across the
desert.

SIERRA COUNTY.


The Bonanza mill at Hillsboro is run
ming on ore from the Snake, and has $50
tons yet to treat.
The output of the Hillsboro gold mines
for the week ending Thursday, June TO-,
was 225 tons; total since January l, 3,645
tons.
For years past no work has been done
in the lowest level of the Richmond mine,
but recently Manager Fiske began work
at depth of 375 feet and struck good
pay ore.
A streak of ore eight inches wide and
80 feet long is in sight on the Happy
Jack, which will assay 5000 per ton in
property.
Owen Mcdonald, manager of the Eighty
Five mine, has gone to San Francisco be-
cause of failing health, and will place
himself under the care of the best physi-
clan on the coast.
The Hlllsboro Advocate says: "Veri-
table nuggets of pure gold are being en-
countered in the slopes of the Wicks mine.
This goes to indicate that the gold Of the
neighboring placers does after all come
from the veins and as the placers contain
over $70,000,000 it is fair deduction that
the Hillsboro mines may produce a million
a year for century or two to come"
very important mining deal was con-
cluded last week in the granting of long
lease of the Bobtail mine by Supt. Hughes
for Fl. M. Porter of Denver, the owner.
The lessees are Messrs. Preisser, Hirsch,
Collard and Welch, who are prepared to
invest a considerable amount in money
and labor to put the old mine in working
condition. No mine in the Hillsboro dis
trict has a better record as to quantity
and richness of ore and with the energetic
men who have now taken hold it will soon
be noted producer.

Blown Up.

A Scotch journal says that a certain
Well-known painter went to a seaside
village to paint picture, and put up
at small public house. One day, while
in his room, he heard a commotion, and
on running downstairs found that the
chimney was on fire. Two or three men
were trying to put out the flames by
sweeping the SCOT down with brooms.
but the blaze was too high to be reached
IN this manner. Seeing their want of
success, the painted caught up a thick
mat, ran with it to the roof, and climb
ing up the stack of chimneys, placed it
on the top of the one that was on fire.
His idea was, of course, to obstruct the
draught. It happened that a small
breeze was blowing, and as the mat was
in danger of being blown off, the artist
sat on it to hold it down. He was Just
comfortably seated when he found him
self lifted bodily and landed upon the
tiles of. the roof. What had happened?
That was more than he could imagine
till he went downstairs. No one knew
that he had gone aloft, and when the
landlord saw that sweeping down the
SCOT was Intellectual, he tried the old
fashioned remedy Of lighting a charge
of gunpowder. This it was that re-
moved not only the SCOT, but the mat
and the painter. Fortunately, the
painter was not badly hurt.-Youth's

jerks is not afraid of any individual
man, perhaps not very much afraid of any
woman, but when he stood up on that
platform with the fiddle in his neck
and faced the crowd, he was badly rat
tied.
"Play a waltz first" said the floor
manager, 'and play slowly" With a
sigh of relief, and thought of What II
l do when they demand fast music 2"
Mr.. jerks began that classical strain
which fits the words where, oh, where
is my little dog gomez" the cello and
mouth-organ struck in, the girls chose
the best walters, the floor filled up,
feet shufflled, boards creaked, and the
hall was opened.
Accomplished speakers have record
ed the difficulty experienced in learn
.ing to think upon their feet, but jerks,
facing an audience for the first time
and saving away desperately at the
first bars and repeat of slow waltz,
had no such trouble. He told me after
wards that his thoughts "thunk them
selves and came a-running," and that
he was conscious of three distinct
trains of thought running on parallel
tracks. The first concerned Mr.. Smith,
the delinquent musician; the second
subject was what very pretty girl
when she laughs;" and the third, &C.
cented to waltz time, ran: "Oh, never
can play them that second strain, !
know I'll break down if I try"
To anticipate difficulty is to insure
it. After repeating the first strain some
20 times, Jenkins made desperate ef-
fort to strike the second movement,
failed and collapsed. The cello and
mouth organ hammered along uncer-
tainly for a time and ceased. The
stranded walters dotted the floor like
boats becalmed on a NINA ure lake.
The walters had been so engrossed
in their own efforts, and the rest of us
in looking on, that the quality of the
music had apparently received little at
tention. When the player broke down
there was only q general movement of
Impotence at the interruption, and I
looked to see the persistent jerks start
up again on the same eight measures.
But he had entirely recovered his self
possession. Laying the fiddle aside, he
advanced to meet the girl at whose re-
quest he had made the effort.
"Don't you Think he asked, shat
have proved that cannot play?'
'Well, it does come pretty close to a
demonstration" she answered; "but

thank you very much for helping us
out. Mr.. Smith has come and will re-
lieve you"
So Mr.. Smith took the fiddle and
jerks took the girls hand for the frs.
dance, and perhaps for others, and the
evening was success.
Many hours afterward, as we rode
sleepily homeward in the gray light of
morning, jerks said to me: "What a
very pretty girl when she laughs
what did she say about your. play
ing?" asked.
"Said I must play at the next leap
year dance; 1900 is not leap year, YOU
know-would give me eight years to
practice"
did you promise?'
' Il promised not to; told her had
something better to work for now"
Rhine jerks is rather taciturn fell
low and am not in his confidence, but
| know that he goes pretty often to
Richmond Hill, and he has traded his
fiddle for cow. Ihave also noticed him

THE HEAVENLY CAMP.

Across the open window blows
The languorous breathing of the rose:
The young moon drops it's ruddy spark
Behind the wood, and all Is dark.
Through dreamy hush the river goes,
The purple opens as it flows,
And larger heavens their depths disclose
Forth In the night fare. while slow
The still translucent spaces grow,
Out of their midnight bloom, as clear
AS one great jewel, sphere over sphere,
TIL tender splendors shed their glow
Far off and infinite, as though
They yelled some unknown country so.
Fain would my wish the seas explore
That break upon that farther shore
In silent thunders, and immense
From universe to universe
My being, till at last pour
My love, my longing, out before
The Love that lives forevermore.
The swift dawn comes, rosy flare,
And shuts me with my hope, my care,
In the dear world Of glancing dew.
OF blossom bough and velvet blue.
Yet yonder hangs diviner air.
And all day long I breathe aware
The country of the Lord is there.
