Feeding a Baby Elephant.

In St. Nicholas f. Fitz Roy Dixon
tells of baby elephant that was cap
tured by friends of his in Ceylon, after
the death of its mother. Mr.. Dixon says:
When Sidney was first brought over,
virtually in order that she might be
fed, the question naturally arose as to
how she would take her nourishment
OF course the proper way for an adult
elephant to take in water is by means
of the trunk, which is furnished with
two tubes running its whole length.
But when bowl of milk was placed
before the baby elephant she did not
know what to do with it. She dipped
the tip of her trunk into it, and the
lockers on thought that there would be
no difficulty about her drinking at all,
since she recognized the scent Of the
nourishment she had been accustomed
to. But she was quite at loss and set
up roar which seemed quite natural
under the circumstances. Then some
one suggested pouring it down her
throat from a bottle, and this was ac-
cordingly tried, and after one or two in
SltCbudl utbSIlptS ciS ulutAotOou.
She was half starved when this was
done, for she had had nothing to eat
since the death Of her mother, and her
delight at being fed was most amusing.
The only trouble was that it was diff
cult to satisfy her, and it was feared
that the change of diet would disagree
with her, but fortunately it had no i'll
effect

There have been patented all kinds of
schemes devised for the purpose Of Sc
curing bottle that cannot be reflled
after having once been emptied Of its
contents A great deal of fraud is said
TO DO perpetrated by filling the bottles
of some standard liquor with an inferior
grade and palming it off as the original
bottling. An ingenious Philadelphian
proposes to accomplish this by blowing
a coin in the body Of the glass bottle,
and he thinks that this will be tempt
ing enough to induce some one to break
the bottle as soon asst has been emptied.

The steady increase of gold in the tfess

stance. The net stock held by the gov
eminent is now 1852 100000, which is the
largest sum held since November, 1890.
This accumulation has not been made at
the expense of metropolitan banks which
last week held $s6,0OO,0OO.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

The Weekly Financial Review says that
affairs in Wall street are in somewhat
uncertain and vacillatipg condition, owing
to the Supreme court decision relating
to the Tran smissouri Freight assocla.
tion.
"This decision" continues the Review,
"has for the time being at least broken
up the steady drift toward higher prices
which had previously been IN operation.
There is no fixed conviction as to the
future drift of operations, and each
operator is going on his own look.2
just now London sees nothing in the
situation to encourage either buying or
selling, and maintains an expectant atti-
tude. Operators are waiting for indica-
tions of future drift.
The Supreme courts deferment Of the
hearing of the Joint Traffic association
case until the first week in October has
had generally wholesome effect. II
withdraws public attention from the case
for six months, and thereby allows the
market to drift away from the doubts
the litigation has raised, and leaves il free
to follow other and more moral influ.
ences. What these influences are likely
to be, thus becomes the question Of the
moment. It may be said at least that
there are no disturbing factors conspi.
cuously in sight. On the other hand,
there is an abatement of certain obstruc.
tions that have helped to unsettle con-
fdence. Popular excitement on the
Cuban question has greatly moderated.
The administration shows disposition
to avoid unnecessary entanglements in
it, ana Spain exhibits a respect for the
maintenance of amicabe relations with
Us, which together encourage the hope
that peace between the two nations may
be preserved. Also there is reason TO
hope that, 10 the relations between the
European powers and the Greeks and
Cretans, the danger point has been passed.

SOME of New Mexico's Republican
statesmen fear for the future of the Re-
publican party In the territory unless
certain candidates of their own should be
appointed to federal office. This fear lie
not we'll founded. While there exists no
doubt at all that the appointment of the
right kind of men to federal Offices in the
territory will help the Republican party
greatly, would solidify it and unite it, still
this journal thinks that the party is strong
and will be able to keep together in right
good shape. At any rate this paper will
do its level best toward Republican sue
cess, no matter who fills the New Mexico
federal Offices.

TIE arrest of General Sanguilly at the
instance of Spanish vice consul, charged
con information and belief" with aiding
in fitting out hostile expedition against
Spain, is doubtless as he claims, a case of
mistaken belief. General Sanguilly gave
his word when released from Spanish
prison in Havana, at the instance of
Secretary Sherman, that he would refrain
from such acts, and says he intends to
keep it, and has had nothing to do with
the late expedition of the Bermuda. The

BETTER TIMES AHEAD.

The big mining deal at Hillsboro out
lined in yesterdays issue of the New
MEXICAN, is one Of the largest enterprises
that has been consummated in the west
thus far during this year of our Lord
1897. The investment of such large
amount of capital, means great deal for
the section concerned, and for the terri
tory in general. This investment in
wolves the employment of hundreds OF
men, and it means the construction of a
railroad to Hillsboro, and the Inaugural
ton of an era of development for the
whole section of country contiguous there
to. Something is almost sure to come
of the several railway construction
schemes now under way for the Pecos
valley. The Hearst estate has but recent
ly purchased extensive mining interests
in Grant county. La Belle and Red River
are attracting attention and capital from
all parts of the country. Take it all
around, the territory is leading off the
new year in very handsome manner,
and bids fair to hold it's own with other
sections of the west 10 the matter of ma
terial development. The Santa Fe rail-
road stands ready to foster new enter
prises, and our mines are attracsing wider
attention than ever before. In view of
these facts, it would not be surprising If
the year 1897 should mark the inception
of a boom in New Mexico that will re-
mind old settlers of the good days from
1881 to 1886. 1t the present time all in
locations point to revival of ths condi-
tions existing in the territory, during the
period mentioned above.
