New Mexico Prosperous.
Washington Post.)

The governor of New Mexico, Hon.
M. A. Otero, is a guest of the Shoreham.
He is one of the youngest chief eXecu-
tives in the country, but has had a wide
experience in business and politics, and
on account of his personal popularity
the new of his appointment was hailed
with great satisfaction.
New Mexico" said the governor, sis
as prosperous as its citizens could hope
for, and there is not a section of the
territory that is not improving. The
chief boom out our way has been the
rapid rise in the value of sheep.
Owners of flocks have see their
property double in price within the last
IL months, and there isn't a sheep man
to be found who isn't the possessor of a
big bank account.
"Politically, | am sure that the
advantage in New Mexico is largely
with the Republicans. President Nc
Kinley's administration is immensely
popular, and right here l want to say
that New Mexico is as loyal and patriotic
as any state or territory in the union.
Because many of our people are of
Spanish descent, a lot of foolish stuff
has been written, accusing them of
siding with Spain. A greater Islander
was never perpetrated.
sour territory raised five companies
of "Rough Riders" three of which did
magnificent Service in the hard fighting
in front of Santiago. The captain of
one of them, Max Luna, of Spanish
lineage, especially distinguished himself
in the charge at San Juan. 1t was
reported that he was killed, but he is
very much alive, and it wouldn't be
astonishing if his Republican friends
didn't insist on his running for congress
in November. Mr.. Ferguson, the
present delegate, is a Democrat, and
was elected by a large majority, but
don't think that he would stand any
chance against Captain Luna, who has
already filed offices of Importance in
the territory, and whose war record has
made him new friends by the hundred

was destroyed by the Spanish, and in
commenting on the situation the Lon
don Graphic says: If this thing con-
tinues. the guns will go off of them
selves" The London Chronicle says:
THE curtain is certainly dropping upon
a scene of national humiliation and ma
tional indignation"
The feelings of the people are not
soothed by any means by the attitude of
the continental powers. Russia has
evidently paved the way for assistance
from Germany and France in dividing
up the grab in China in such a manner
that Great Britain will be shut out Of
the east entirely, unless heroic measures
are adopted. The French are comment
ing gleefully upon the situation, and the
newspapers at Berlin and Vienna are at
no pains to hide their satisfaction over
the discontinue of England. On the
whole the continental press regards the
project of an Anglo-American alliance,
which is very much feared, as impos-
sible. arguing that the United States has
had enough val to last her for a long
time to come, and deprived from the
only assistance which it is possible to
hope for, England will not pick a quar-
rel with Russia, the war scare in the
east will subside and Russia will secure
what she wants without trouble.
In these speculations the continental
powers are very apt to be mistaken and
influenced by a burning desire to see
Great Britain Inundated and for once
compelled to play second fiddle in the
concert of the powers. Great Britain
is governed very much the same as is
America, the people rule, and if the
nagging process is carried much further
the peace at any price element on the
island will be compelled to step aside and
allow the ''jingoes," as they would
be called if they lived in this count
ry. to take control and either thrash
Russia and her allies or get licked
in the attempt. 1t is not the ma
ture of the An~glo-Saxon to submit
to impositions and encroachments Oh
what he considers his rights, and
should war come between Russia and
Great Britain, it will not be any Amer
ican-Spanish affair. Before it is closed
the entire political map of Europe and
Asia will be materially changed, and
England will not come out of the Strug-
gle second best. The continental pow
ers need not fear that America will take
any part in it, unless the rights of this
country are endangered. 1t will not be
necessary. On the seas ''Britania rules
the wave" and the fighting would be
principally by the navy. Russia. France
and Germany would better go slow in
goading the English beyond a certain
limit.

At the present time there is consid-
cradle discussion going On in the papers
of the country concerning the merits,
and dement's as we'll, of the numerous
newspaper correspondents who have
written the every day story Of the war
with Spain. One journal mourns the
absence of DR.. Russells and Archibald
Forbeses in the ranks of the correspond
ents as having been lone of the strange
features of this strange war, which has
rubbed the plating off many gold
bricks" Up to the present time the
best accounts Of the battles and Incl.
dents Of the war have been written by the
volunteer soldiers serving in the ranks,
and when the time m for casting up
the results of the work of recording the
deeds of valor it will be found that the
men in the ranks not only made history,
but wrote it down as it was made in a
much better manner than the men who
went to the front for that purpose.

There seems to be a disposition or the
part of the delegates to the different
state Democratic conventions to forget
the Chicago platform and replace it
with some other basis for the coming
campaign. So far the conventions held
have conceded that a platform was
adopted in Chicago when ''the crown of
thorns and cross of gold" secured an OBJ
scure politician the nomination for the
presidency, but the enthusiasm over the
free silver revision of the old greenback
theory of making money has not torn
down any of the convention halls. The
Colorado Democrats are still engaged in
vigorously fighting windmills, in spite of
the fact that the output of the gold
mines of that state in 1897 exceeded all
previous records, but aside from the
chronic howl that goes up from the Cen
tennial state very little is heard of the
crime of 49,"

A Good Cleaning Oil For the Skin.

To thoroughly clean the skin o good
cleaning oil is nece sary, but that may be
made at home at trifling expense, and then
one has the satisfaction of knowing what
1t contains. Get the druggist to give you
two ounces of oil of sweet almonds, four
drops of oil of bitter almonds, one table
spoonful Of camphor water and four ounces
Of white wax. Put this in dish set in a
basin of boiling water and stir until the
wax is melted. Add one-fourth Of a tea
spoonful of salt, then beat it until it be-
comes cold. 1t will take about an hour
and should be smooth like salve. If not
beaten it has a grain and Is not SO good.
Sponge off the face with clear, warm
water, then apply this oil, rubbing 1t in
with the tips Of the fingers, then with a
moderately coarse towel proceed to rub it
off. If you do it hard enough the towel
will be quite black. This oil may be used
at any time, but 1t is better to use it at
night, following with the hot water, with
out soap. This cleaning oil does what the
soap cannot do.-Euphemia Woods in
Woman's Home Companion.

Carl Schurz has bobbed to the front
with the suggestion that ''our acquisi-
ton of territory may cause us the loss
of confidence of Europe" That loss,
Carl, would not be very much. Europe
never had an over abundance of con-
fidence in the United States until the
territory was acquired by superior force
of arms and even now that confidence is
of what has been accomplished in driv-
ing oppression into smaller quarters in
order to restrain it.

PETERS EASTER HAT.

A Fashion "Reminiscences In Verse by Cy-

On the day precedin Easter Harvard Pete of
Placer Flat
Got a package at was loaded with a tall an
shiny hat.
Twas a regular plug at glistened like a pane
o polished glass,
An twas sent him by an ancient aunt who
camped in Boston, Mass.
Harvard Pete had lived in Boston an was on to
eastern style,
An the SCENT 'at he seen her people heard him
yell a mile,
'I'm the only dude in Placer with an Easter
hat in sight,
An I'll wear her Easter mornin, err yen know
there's been a fightl"
Then the boys they held a meetin in McClosky
Simpsons place
An opined an resoluted at 'twould be a derned
disgrace
If twas known in Keno City at a man in
Placer Flat
Had been gittin soft an dudish an was sportin
sech a hat.
why said Sleepy Dick, the miner, who was
in partickler Iiled,
"Fus we know eff Pete amt headed he'll be
wearin shirts ats billed.
He'll be slingin on perfooln'ry an be usin toilet
soap
An be wearin paper collars where he oughter
wear n rope!"
Sleepy Dick an shaky Dawson then was depu-
Harvard Pete call to turn him from the error
O. his way.
"Ef we wear her, Pete,' they told him in q
sort O formal chat,
''Every man 'at lives in Placer will be out to
shoot the hat!"
Harvard Pete was full o. ginger as a box o.
ginger snaps .
He'd been loadin up his pistols an was putin
on the caps.
"Ye kin tell the boys I'll wear her''-them's
the very words he said
''Ye kin tell the boys III wear her Of | wear
her full O. lead!" '
Sleepy Dick an shaky Dawson, each with stern
an anxious face,
Pulled their freight an soon reported ut Nc.

An the boys by resolution voted Pete his lead

Forty men on Easter mornin was on hand
with guns to greet

All as lcil once SAOb lue apple from MS klQ IN

So the miners popped the shiny plug at Har-

Billyum Tell was not more careful o. his kid
the day his bow
Sent the arrow than the miners was O. Har-
ward Pete, ye know,
But mistakes will often happen when We do

Thirty bullets hit the Easter plug, but Pete he
stopped the rest.
All the boys was awful sorry Pete was shot an

Ar they waited fer reproaches, but he hadn't
none to give.
Boys he said, ~ ak yer pardon; ye was

stemmed ones, like pansies, sweet peas,
nasturtiums or sweet mignonette, should
never be placed in a tall, slender vase,
where they merely form a little tuft at the
top, but in a low, broad, shallow vessel,
like a fern dish or a bowl. When the
flowers show an inclination to sink down
inside, they may be tied up into small
punches and the punches then massed in
the bowl. Long stemmed roses and car
nations, on the contrary, require a tall,
narrow vase, and if it is of glass SO much
the better, as the stems are then visible.
Colorless glass or that having a green or
amber tint is most pleasing, as it does
not antagonize the tint of the flowers.
A picture is given which shows a morn
ing jacket of water green surah. 1t is
gathered at the waist and has a basque
and bertha of deep lace. Lace also encir-
cles the collar and the wrists of the full
sleeves, and a scarf of the surah, edged
with lace, passes down the front, is caught
in at the waist and falls in long ends upon
