GIRL. ATHLETES.
Young Ladies' who win Take to baseball
and Track Work.
An entirely new departure in woman


An entirely new departure in woman's
athletics is in prospect at tho University
of Chicago. Tennis and basket ball, for
mcrly the only games i'll which the girls
could indulge, viii go TO the wall beside
the daring feature now proposed. The
plan suggested and approved is to form
track team and an indoor baseball
nine. Members of the different gym
classes are 10 compete for places, and
the best material chosen will form the
teams.
The work of the track team will con-
sist mainly Of running and jumping.
The half mile and quarter mile runs and
the running broad jump VII be its prin-
cipal achieNeme The girls will hold
an athletic meet early in the winter
quarter, upon which occasion they will
borrow the mems gymnasium, as they
have no running track in their own.
This will be IA sort Of general contest,
and by means of the records made here
regular track team VII be organized.
The girls will so into training i'll the
most approved masculine style and are
very much in earnest over this attempt.
The baseball nine is also exciting
much interest. 1t is expected that girls
in other colleges and schools will follow
the example of the varsity women and
organize mines, so that contests can be
he'd which Will give an incentive tC
lively practice. A regular team made
up Of the best material will be formed,
besides u scrub team, which will consist
Of substitutes to the regular team. These
two teams will practice four afternoons
week i'll the womans gym and will be
| ready for match games by the latter
part Of the present month.
Girls are different from men in that
| experience cannot form basis upon
| which to render them eligible for the
new teams. No girls are accomplished
ball players, and so those who first learn
to throw straight, catch without mutf.
ing, and, most important Of all, to slide
bases, will form the nine. Girls who
live in the suburbs may have had some
! practice in running which will stand
them in good stead for the track team.
But the running broad jump will be
new 10 all. Hurdle racing has been sug-
gested, but it was decided not to bring
in that event until the team had be.
come proficient in running on plane
surface. Next year that and the pole
vault will probably be introduced. -

Insect Powder

The best effect can be OBJ

burning of the genuine article
are not harmful to a persons
health. We carry a nice line

The feeling that one cannot

The solid comfort obtained
by the use of this exterminator

Improper Conduct Charged.

BY direction of Judge Rowel OF
the supreme court an information has
been filed against Joseph c. Jones of
Rutland, eX-state's attorney for Rut-
land county, alleging improper con-
duct relative to certain liquor prose
cutions.
The case is returnable before a spc-
cial session of the full bench of the
supreme court to be held at Montpe-
lier Feb. 26th. Ii proven, the charges
will result in the disbarment of Mr..
Jones, who is prominent member of
the Rutland county bar.
An answer TO the information must
be filed before Feb. 22d. Mr.. Jones
has retained Joel c. Baker as his
counsel. 1t is vaguely limited that
other members of the bar are also i'm
plioated.
1t is alleged that Jones told Judge
Rowell that he had made certain dis
position of liquor cases and bailed
forfeitures which subsequently proved
to be untrue.
Mr.. Jones was elected states attor-
ney in 1892 for term of two years
and was reelected in 1894. His term
of office expired Nov. 30, 1896.

fouled for five decades by hundreds
and hundreds of filthy people,. and
you have the situation at the sheldon
poor house today"
The Messenger states that it is ow-
ing to mistaken idea of economy
that this state of affairs exists.
The expense for the year 1896 just
closed was the monstrous sum
Of -, 1880. This means that CD
paupers, farm of 1925 acres, and a
manager, matron, two daughters, two
hired girls and hired man were sup
ported on -, 1880 a year!

towns in the county is 800, 034.3l, so

list TO pay expenses was S.02ll75S.

1859 TONSOF COAL MINED
annual Report Of Coal Mine Inspector
j w. Fleming-Value of Coal Mined
$1, 10000 Seven Fatal Acct
dents-RecOmmend

j. W. Fleming, territorial coal mine in
spector, has submitted his annual report
for the year ending June the 30th, 1897,
to the secretary of the interior and the
following salient points are taken there
from:
Mr.. Fleming reports that the mining
officials throughout the territory have
done everything that he has requested re-
lative to the sanitary condition of the
mines and their ventilation, and that it
seems to be the aim of the mine owners
to comply with the requirements of the
mining laws.
The number of mines in operation is
"a; those not in operation, 8; new mines
iu course of development and producing,
S. The production of coal for the fiscal
Jear ending June 30, 1897, is as follows:
Bernalillo county 275,937 tons; Colfax
county, 2O3,537 tons; Lincoln county,
1000; Rio Arriba county, 81, 400; Santa
Fe county, 225,O00; San Juan county, l.
1926; total of 1855 tons, the estimated
value of which, at the mines, is $780,
915.
The total number of fatal accidents
was z, from the following causes: By
falling rock, 8; by falling coal, l; run
over by the cars, 2; by premature blast,
l. There we're IA non-fatal accidents,
from the following causes: By falling
coal, 4; by falling rock, 8; by cars, 4; by
rope, l. The total number of men in
and about the mines in the territory, as
reported, is as follows: Miners, 1854;
outside men, III; boys, 40; total of
1856.
Mr.. Fleming suggests, that in all mines
employing ten or more men, a map
should be made of all workings, to be
kept on file tor inspection, and copy
thereof sent to the inspector which should
be accom- panied by a statement of the
workings of the mine. The mining boss
should make daily inspection of the ropes,
chains, cages and hosting apparatus,
guides, shaft timbers, and keep daily
record thereof.
He also recommends, that more and
better legislation be had providing for
more thorough ventilation of the coal
mines IN operation.
The report is an interesting and valu-
able document and very comprehensive
as to the status of the coal mining indus /
try in New Mexico.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican., 1897-12-08

a body Of men, supposedly sane aud ill.,
telligent, could have conceived such an
idea, while to imagine condition of af.
fairs in the commercial world that would
make such scheme possible of success,
would battle the imagination of the most
weird romancer civilization ever knew
Think of curreuoy based upon cotton,
corn, wheat and oats! Who would care
to accept money for labor or products
dependent upon the elements for its
value? $50 bill redeemabie in a bale
of cotton would be worth that much, pro.
vided there was shortage of crops, but
the greater part of the time its purchss.
ing power would be problematical. A
ten-cent piece having for its intrinsic
value peck of turnips would be scorned
by every street Arab. Talk about a
flexible currency, what is the matter with
the idea advanced by the magnates of the
Peoples party' Money to be worth any
thing must have come standard of value
other than the market price of radishes,
carrots and sauer kraut.
1t has long been the Judgment of the
best posted finauciers of the nation that
an indiscriminate banking business car
ried on by the government would result
disastrously to the best interests of the
entire people, collectively and individu-
ally, and for years it has been the aim of
all statesmen to prevent just such an ar
rangement as the Pops now urge upon
the voters. A more comprehensive
scheme for robbing the government right
and left was never devised. Under an
act of that kind, real estate and chattols
would undoubtedly be created sufficient
collateral upon which to borrow money,
and the ultimate results are easily dis
cernible. There are enough dishonest
persons in the country.to keep stand
ing army of deputy marshals chasing alb
sconding creditors carrying off both
money and security; real estate money
borrowing schemes would flourish until
the present abused corporations would
be nothing in comparison. In order to
guard against such rascality Uncle Sam
would be compelled to erect and main
tain great buildings and corrals to be
used as pawnshops. That would hardly
be in keeping with the dignity of the old
gentleman, and besides he was never in
tended to make success of the "unce"
business.
Looking at the recommendation re-
garding finances made by the Pops from
an unprejudiced standpoint, it would
seem, on the whole, pretty good idea to
keep vegetables, old clothes and worth
less lands ont of the banking business.
