81 seems to me-" saidss conductor,
"that everyone is wrong in the eyes of
q certain element in FL Paso until he
has proved himself right. The wo-
men folks, 1 lind, entertain their
friends by telling the short comings of
their neighbors. Rumors are
brought up and discussed and declared
q fact by these mutual admiration
societies, and after q lengthy discus
sion these sometimes groundless
rumors float from the lips of
these same women as facts to
all whom they chance to meet. And
the fun of the whole matter Is
the ones who are doing the
most talking about their neighbors
live in very delicate glass mansions
themss Ives. Ia their estimation this
and that one is not what he or she
would be, this couple is not married
and that couple should be, and soforth
and SO on until all their scquaintances
have been rid iculed TO the best OF the
gossipers' ability. l not only find this
in railroad circles but in most all
other circles in Ell Paso. The chances
are toaL IL some of the greatest de-
farmers we're TO read what L have just
said in the HERALD they would con-
clude that IL was intended for some OF
their neighbors aud not for them. l
would like to see SANDER made q capt.
tai offence and the law strictly enfOr-
ced."

Mr. Huntington Still Considering

A New York special says:-The Calves
ton proposition Is receiving very care
full consideration at the hands of Mr..
Huntington aud those concerned with
him. AS Mr. Huntington was leaving
for the day 1 had quite q chat with
him. He said in answner TO my ques-
tion as to whether he did not think
Galveston was doing nicely: "Well,
yes, things seem to be shaping them
selves, and appreciate the
deep interest shown as
evidenced by the publica-
tions which l have read in the Calves
ton News. In regard to the PROPOSE
ton, 1t may be a good one, but there
are many details to be considered, and
a great many interests to be consulted
that will be affected by the change,
but we are working on 1t, and will
know where we stand in q few
days.
lam told q conference which will
include counsel and representative in
terests who have been invited to at
tend will be held at Mr.. Huntington's
Office tomorrow, after which perhaps
there may be an answer. 1t is pos
sible, however, that no answer will be
made for some days.

J. A. Hampson, Arrives.

As foretold in this column a few
days ago, the Mexico railroad
magnate, Joseph n. Hampson, arrived
over the Mexican Central last night in
his private car and went north this
morning. Mr.. Hampson said to HER
AID reporter that he had great faith
in the future of Ell Paso. He said that
he did not think our city would ever
be as large as Denver, Colorado, but
that he would much rather hold
property interests here than in Den
yer. Regarding the Mexico, Cuerna-
vaca & Pacific railroad, of which he
is resident, Mr.. HAmpson said that it
is being pushed rapidly to completion,
and that it is built It's miles out from
the City of Mexico. When completed
this road will run to Capulco on the
Pacific coast and will open up rich
section of country. -

A Word to the Wise.

"If everyone In FL Rsso would look
to the interests of Ell Paso and stop
sending away to make purchases which
can be duplicated here In price and
quality, the town would be great deal
more prosperous, said q railroad man.
THE great trouble is the people do not
stop to think that If they spend their
money here the greater portion OF it
viii remainin the local channels of trade
while If goods are purchased of tenn
porary concerns or foreign agents the
town receives little or no benefit. This
is matter that should concern all who
have now or who expect to have any
interests in Ell Paso.

All a Humbug.

There is good deal of humbug
about the frequently repeated state
ment that second class accommodation
In Europe is quite as good and comfor-
table as first class. A still greater
humbuR is the popular saying that
s'only fools and Americans" travel
first class, for the truth is that nearly
all well-to-do French, Italian and Eng
lish "voysgeurs" go first class, as, in
deed, do the aristocratic and wealthy
classes of all European nations. AS
for the Americans, money of them go
first class, but from my observations
at Geneva, which is one of the great
tourist centers of the continent, am
inclined to think that the ma ority do
not. But this Is merely incidental. OF
course, the question of the different
classes must be considered in the dis
cussiou of the comparative conditions
of travel.-Railway Age.

A HORRIBLE DEATH.
Switchman Van Bell Killed I'm the
Santa Fe Yards This Morning

Ed. Van Bell was instantly killed
this morning at 9:15 ats the Intersection
Of the Santa Fe and Mexican Central
tracks - lew hundred yards west OF the

Six cars passed over his body. His

He WAS dead when removed from be-
meath the cars. Undertaken Nagley

His switch-key, which was in his
trousers pocSeS at the time of the &C
c.dent, WAS cut In two, while his watch,
which he carried in his vest pocket,
was twisted in many different shapes.
The be ell was torn from his LETT shoe
which leads many to believe that his
foot got caught in guard rail and
threw him helpessly to the ground,
allowing the wheels to pass over him.
Mr.. Van Bell was young man %
years Of age and was true to his par
ents and active in his work. In earlier
life his sole ambition was to become q
switchm an and something over year
ago be quit a jpb at the smelter to en-
ter the duties in the Santa Fe yards,
rs student switchman. His adapta-
bility for tnis kind of work was soon
recognized and he was employed by
the company on a salary. He was sup
porting his father, mother aud sister
in q cuzy home near the Santa Fe
shops.
The funeral will take place at Cald-
well's uod :rtaking parlors at 3 o'clock

An Old Timer.

On the Fourth OF July, 1885, some of
the employees of the G. II. celebrated
the event by purchasing keg of beer.
After the keg had been relieved of its
contents it was thrown into the old
water tank in the G. II. yards and
there it remained until yesterday when
it was taken out by the Immortal Aug
Justine Schmidt and will be tenderly
cared for from now on. Augustine as
sisted in devouring its contents thir-
teen years ago aud says he will fix it
up and place it where it will not feel
the chill of the approaching winter.

The Cog-WheeIer all Riuht

The new cog-wheel engine recently

papy expected of her. The agent had
q little trouble getting the engine In

with comparative ease. The steep
