young married woman was obliged
to remain alone over night in a 81.
Louis hotel few years ago, so the
story goes, her husband being detained
by business in neighboring town says
the Kansas City Journal. In the dead
OF night the woman was awakened out
OF sound sleep by a tremendous noise
in the wardrobe. 1t was such a sudden
and unearthly uproar that the woman,
sensible and practical though she was,
was frightened. The noise ceased, then
returned. The woman jumped up,
lighted the gas, looked at her watch.
and found 1t was Just midnight, and
made a thorough search, both of the
wardrobe and of the room. There was
nothing. so far as the evidence Of her
senses went. which could account for
the racket The woman put out the
light and went back to bed. The noise
was not repeated. either that night or
any other. Six months afterward, how
ever, the woman was In San Francisco,
and for the first time in her life and
solely out of curiosity she attended q
spiritualist meeting. Almost immedi-
ately the medium, a perfect stranger,
turned to her and said, The spirit Of
your mother is present, madam, and
she says that six months ago (naming
the precise date) she tried TO commun-
icate with you by means Of the ward
robe in the Blank hotel. st. Louis" Tho
woman's practical good sAnse did not
desert her, well. you just tell my

she wants to communicate with me not

reason why foreign importation should
not be stopped and the magnitude to
which the business has developed abroad
on account of export bounties, be re-
produced in the United States, and the
farmers of this country placed in posi-
ton to enjoy the benefits.
New Mexico has thousands upon thou
sands of acres of land adapted to sugar
beet culture and analysis of the beets
grown here and specially in the Rio
Santa Fe valley, has demonstrated its
superiority over other regions, by much
higher saccharine qualities. There are
but few counties in the territory that
do not contain many thousands acres Of
beet growing land and thus warrant the
erection of a sugar factory.
Citizens of the territory should awake
from their apathy in these matters and
urge the paramount Importance of in
teresting capital in the business. Water
should be provided for the arid sections
and interest stimulated among farmers
and business men of all localities,
for the benefits of the sugar industry
are manifold and far reaching, and the
, commercial Importance of a region bull
upon so stable an enterprise, ranks A l
and is as solid as the rock of ages.

Beet SUGAR Factories in New Mexico.

The passage of laws in various states,
granting bounties, demonstrates that
the industry of sugar beet growing and
refining is attracting more than passing
attention, and that the general inclina-
ton is to foster the business.
In this territory, the protective and
promoting phases Of the business must
be looked after entirely by the farmer,
who is anxious to find a permanent mar
ket for a crop of some sort, and by the
business man who is DESTROYS of estab-
fishing an enterprise that will offer in
ducements to eastern farmers to locate
here and improve the land, and that
will tend to create industrial enterprises
employing labor and thus swelling the
population.
Henry Studuiczka, an expert in this
line, in Il letter to the governor of Idaho,
says of the relative prices of sugar in
the United State IS and other countries:
1.-The same day the American pays for
graduated 5 cents per pound, the Ger
man citizen pays 81, the Austrian S&, |
the Frenchman 10 cents. All these
governments collect from their people .
revenue of about 2 cents per pound, but
on American and other exports, to slim
ulate home productions, an export boun-
ty is paid more than equalizing this.
Therefore, when the German pays 81

Have a Little Patience.

That the wal situation is on the eve
of important events, all indications
point, and as the tolls wind around the
Spaniard in Cuba the people of this
country are on the tip-toe Of expecta-
ton. But despite all favorable news
from the island the end is not yet and
Americans will do well to possess their
souls in patience. Large bodies move
slowly, and while the result is just as
sure, it takes time to bring great events
around.
The dispatches of yesterday said that
the American troops who were landed
neal Santiago de Cuba on Tuesday had
effected a junction with the insurgents
and a land attack upon the city was
m%omentarily expected. Perhaps it will
come at once, but the probabilities are
that it will be several days and perhaps
weeks before that place falls into the
hands of the invading forces.
Judging from the happenings of the
past six weeks, it will be just as well for
those who afe not on the scene Of action
to wait patiently. The war will not last
always, that is sure, but too much faith
must not be placed in the dispatches
sent out from the different boats and
news centers. Most Of the time the in
telligent newspaper correspondents are
guessing at what is going on, trusting
to time to make their predictions, sent
out rs actual occurrences, good. The
American people have no reason to
