New Mexico has a new livestock in
dustry, the breeding of goats. A maj
named Onderdonk is fencing in an inn
mense tract near Lamy junction and
has bought several herds of Mexican
goats. The skins of goats are stated to
be OF value in the making OF fine shoes
for ladies and children, and many are
now imported from Europe. He may
also be able to supply the secret socie-
ties with the live article.-Pueblo Chief.
tain.
The new industry is all right and
within a few years will prove one of
great value to the territory and to the
country at large. New Mexico has
millions of acres of land that can profit
ably be used for goat pastures. Not
only millions, but tens of millions of
goat skins are used annually by the boot
and shoe manufacturers of the United
States. This vast amount of material
is now being imported from southern
Europe, Northern Africa and Asia
Minor. In a few years, however, this
condition of things will be changed and
many hundreds of thousands of these
goat skins will be supplied from New
Mexico at a profit to the goat ~raisers, to
the manufacturers and to the people. 81

Of Interest to the Clerks Of the Courts.

The following amendment to the bill
making appropriations for sundry civil
expenses of the government for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1899, and for other
purposes, has been proposed by Senator
Thurston and will likely become law:
Provided, That hereafter the clerks OF
the District courts in the territories of
Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma
shall be required to report in their semi
annual emolumentreports, all fees earned
in United States cases only; and that the
accounting officers of the treasury de-
partment are directed to settle all un-
adjusted emolument accounts of said
clerks accordingly. =

UNDER the Dingley tariff law, Ameri-
can manufacturers are now making the
major part of the wooden goods consumed
in this country. Under the Democratic
free trade Wilson law, foreign manufac-
turers were doing this. 1t is expected,
that during the present year about 80
per cent of the wooden textiles consumed
In the United States will be Of domestic
manufacture. Prices are no higher
than they We're under the Wilson law.
Only those who do not wish to, can not
see that such a state of affairs, brought
about by the present tariff law under a
Republican administration, benefits
every class of the American people. ex-
cept the few very rich people who are
bound to wear imported goods of the
finest quality. That the great mass of
the population is greatly benefited by
the Dingley tariff law is clear and is an
fact.

average crowd. pace is so valuable on one Of these little marine sprnters that the cook sleeps in the pantry and the men have to go ashore to salute their officers. All dress in overhauls like laborers and look more like br,cklayers than marines.
 It is always considered important in war fare to bring the men into action in good physical condition, well fed. comfortable and with plenty of sleep. ervice on tor pedo boat is destructive to all these require- ments. The terrific vibration of the paper shelled hull, plunging through the water at the speed of an express train, unsetties the strongest stomach It is impossible to eat or sleep with comfort-in fact, in the British naval manoeuvres the favorte menu for the officers of torpedo boats has been confined to egg-nog.
 The service. even in peaceful exercises is so arduous that the crews have to be changed at intervals of few days.
 The torpedo boat lies alongside a cruiser until wanted. Then its crew is called out to do or die. There is warship on the horizon. It has got to be destroyed. Who can do 1t except the torpedo!
 THE BATTLE.
 The captain looks at his picked crew. s'Ready, boysi" means ready for death. Talk of desperation in the charge Of the Light Brigade-there were hundreds or sur viyors at that charge, but here Is dash from which nobody expects to return allve, and in Wn1cn the only nope oi eIio hiSh "i' make it is that they may hold out long enough to bring their enemy down with them.
 Silently the torpedoes are hoisted from below. the war heads fitted in place, and the launching tubes made ready. Qu,et groups stand by the rapid-f1re guns. Sud- denly searchlighe flashes on the horizen. It sweeps the sea from side to side, and at last 1t touches the torpedo boat and re- mains fastened upon 1t while every man Is outlined in merciless sharpness. It is the searchlight of the enemy. The pent-steam crowds into the cylinders under the lash or the forced draught and the boat plunges along the path of light on its race or death There are two miles to cover be- fore it will come in striking distance, and already the splashes of patterlng shots Tn the water tell that the enemy's secondary battery is finding the range.
 The nerves of every man on board are keyed up tense as harp strings The eyes of the loolouts peer fiercely through the blackness, in which. with all lights out, the hostile battleship lies ready to pour oe- struction on anything that approaches.
 The method of attack must now be con siaered There are two ways, one IS TO steam up to about six hundred yards bows on. stop, fire and then back out The other is to steam up, turn around. firing from the decl, tubes while turning and steam back at fullest speed By the first plan the boat IS under fire longer, for her backing speed is considerably less than her going ahead The advantage is that the least surface or the boat is offered as a target for the enemy.
 In the second case the objection is that. while turning, the entire side of the boat is at the mercy of the enemy's guns, and the boats stern with steering, gear. etc., is

THE ASSASSTNS OF THE NAVY.

.There Is no kind of naval vessel that could be conscienuously recommended in time of war as sanitarium," drawled Captain Schley one day in his inimItable way. sBut of all the various craft, big and little, that constitute a modern fleet there is none so thoroughly undesirable to the searcher after safe and easy berth as a torpedo boat"
 The man sn the torpedo boat has three- sixteenths of an inch of steel between him and the sea that is hungrily watching it's chance to swallow him. The boat could be cut in two with Q can-opener. Not only would It's walls give way like tissue paper before the fire of great guns, rapid-fire guns and machine guns, but they would not re- sist bullet from hand-rihe, or even from a good-sized revolver.
 NO HOPE.
 On an ordinary vesel there is some chance of getting behind something that might concevably turn a projectile. The crew of a torpedo boat Is practically in the open air. Any shot that strikes the craft will search 1t from end to end like an X-ray.
 For all that there Is rivalry to ship on torpedo boat, though 1t means certain death. Their mission is to strike and bring down, with a certainty of falling with the victim. and all going down together.

Torpedo boats are divided into three classes. The third class is now consids dsred obsolete. They were small enough to be carried aboard ship, for they were. 30- tonners. The second-class boats were about 65 tons. They were intended for har- bor service only. and were not seagoing.
 The first-class boats are sea-going craft, but are intended to operate from a base, for the coal and water storage capacity are limited. This precludes torpedo beat from cruising more than seyenty-five to eighty miles from it's base of supplies. This is the kind now relied upon in the navy. First-class boats vary in tonnage from Ills to 175 tons, in length from TAO to 19o feet and in draught from to 8 feet. They are perfectly seaworthy and can ride out the heaviest gales. The armament consits or three to four 1s-inch Whitehead torpedo and three or four one-pounder rapid-flr,g guns. In addition there is arevolver and two to three rifles for each of the twenty two to thirty men, the rifles supplied with sword bayonsts to repel boarders.
 BIG WEAPONS.
 The biggest kind of modern destroyer has a length of 220 feet, with a beam or zo'2 feet The horse power Is about b,5Oo driv- ing the boat at speed of thirty-one knols or more The engines are triple expans on, with water tube boilers. They carry rom seven to a hundred tons of coal, and at a speed of eight or nine knots can keep the sea for week; os they are independent or coaling Tn a voyage of between l,3OO anu 1500 miles. They carry crew or apout three or four officers and about forty men The engines. as you can see, are all out of proportion to the craft they drive.
 The torpedo flotilla in the war fleet lying off Key West Is little fleet Of itself, com manded by Lieutenant Commander w. w. Kimball. It consits of the Foote, Lieuten- ant w l., Rodgers commanding, Ensign k. H. Jackson; the Gushing, Lieutenant A. Gleaves commanding, Ensign F. r.

bulkhead. This division is made first. be- cause nothing could be slowed away in so narrow place so far forward, and second, to Insure the safety Of the boat in case her bows get stove. To stave in the bows of a torpedo boat Is really quite as eaesy as fall ing of log, for the boat in all her parts is made as light as possible. The skin plat ing Is of the thinnest steel, the frames are of light weight, the longitudinals are mere strips of metal. So thin and frail is the construction of the boat that if she bumps or runs into anything she will be bent out of her shape, and should her bow strike any hard object-like oflating spar or the spile of a dock-it would be turned book on itself and twisted all out of shape, in much the same way as a stiff piece of pa- per would be after being crumpled up in the hand
 DEADLY MISSION.
 The mission of torpedo boat Is to get close to warship. fire it's shot into the weakest spot and sink the ship. Lying low and going at great rate of speed 1t is sup posed to act like little David killing his Goliath. It runs up to him, strikes him, strikes again and again and then either falls or sees the enemy go down.
 No greater heroism is required than tll-s for any task of modern times. f.s

At last the moment has come Eight hundred yards. The helm goes hard over, the boat swings around, and from two of her tubes 20 speeding messengers of destruction. The enemy's battleship goes down.
