The Prime Minister. Career.

The Prime Minister'S Career.
Don Antonio Canovas del Castillo was
born at Malaga in 1923. His father was
modest school teacher and his mother was
a washerwoman. He entered public life
as editor of La Patria, an organ of Senior
Rios Rosas, in which Canovas defended
conservative ideas. In 1854 he was elected
deputy for Malaga, and since that year
ne has never ceased to be member of the
cortes. AS charge d'affaires in Rome, in
1886, he drew up the historical memoran-
DUN upon the rela tons Of Spain with the
holy see, which served as a basis for the
concordat. He was then named sGceS-
sIvely governor of Cadiz in 1850 director
general of the administration in 1853, and
under secretary of state for the interior
in 1851. In 1865 he was appointed minister
of the colonies in the cabinet presided over
by General ODonnell. 1t was then that
Canovas revealed his superiority over most
of the Spanish politicians. At that early
date he showed that he looked upon the
colonial problem whose solution
was most pressing but this very fact
makes him the more responsible before
history for his failure in solving it, al
though, more than any other statesman,
ne had the authority and the power to inn
pose his will upon those who systematic
ly opposed any measure which might d.
rectly or indirectly tend to relieve the col
onies from political and economic oppres-
sion by the mother country.

IRELAND'S PHARMACY.
A Model Establishment Conducted in
an Up-to-Date Manner.

The Ireland Pharmacy is one of the
best known of our commercial establish
ments, and enjoys an extensive patronage.
Mr.. Ireland, the proprietor, is citizen
of worth, and thorough master Of this
business, who has won an enviable place
in the commercial community. His es-
tablishment is model in every respect,
and it is doubtful if an equal is to be
found west of Chicago. Commodious
and we'll arranged, every foot of the
space is utilized, not only in the store
proper, where patrons transact their bust
ness, but in tha.three large store rooms
which contain the heavy goods as we'll.
A full line of drugs Of the finest uality is
kept constantly on hand, and customers
may be assured at all times of receiving
courteous treatment, and also what they
pay for.
Albert Collins, the efficient and we'll
trained assistant, who divides with Mr..
ireland the attention of patrons, has had
over twenty years. experience in the
drug business, most of his time having
been spen. in Chicago, where he acquired
most valuable training in his chosen
profession. His unfailing courtesy and
close attention to business, have secured
for him universal popularity among the
towns people, and the highest esteem Of
his employer.

BOARD OF TRADE.
This Body Will Contest the Santa
rum Proposition.

A special adjourned meeting from last
Saturday evening of the board of trade
was held on Monday evening with large
attendance, and several representatives
present from the Woman's board of trade.
The meeting was called for the purpose
of discussing the sanitarium proposition,
of which the people of Santa Fe have
heard before, and the session was entirely
confined to this topic. Speeches were
made by several members, reviewing the
situation up to date, and pointing out the
policy of Offering aid to another scheme
OF this kind, and urging prompt action
against the present proposition, embed
led in bill now before congress, which
is receiving the support of Delegate Cat
ron under Misrepresentation.
The pending bill, as is we'll known,
proposes to donate the Fort Marcy site,
for sanitarium to be erected by the In
valid Aid Society of Boston, assisted fur
ther, by cash contribution from the
people of Santa Fe. The sentiment of
the meeting crystalized, near the close of
the session, in resolution to reconsider
the support formerly offered by the
board in this measure, looking to the es-
tablishment of saniterium, and offering
a protest against the donation of land,
funds, moral support, or anything else, in
behalf of the proposition.
1t was also the sense of the meeting
that copy of the resolution be trans
m1tted to the territorial delegate IN con.
press and also tn the other members of
the house of representatives.

Feed Your Bamboo Chairs.

The pretty and inexpensive bamboo
furniturc. so much used now, requires
to be treated differently from the or
dinary wooden furniture. AS bamboo
is liable to crack and come apart, it
must be fed so as to cOunteract the ill
effects Of dryncSs in the room. The
furniture should he exposed TO the air
whenever possible. DO not place too
near n fire. and it should he rubbed
regularly with equal parts of linsecd oil
and turpentine applied with flannel
and then rubbed in with a soft cloth.
An occasional wash In cold water, fol.
lowed by a thorough drying, is good for
bamboo furniture.
