About the Pec0s Valley.

Fort Worth, Tex, Apl.ll-People il
the Panhandle Of Texas are very muct
elated over the improvements being
made by the Pecos Valley Railroad
company. General Manager E. o
Faulkner is 10 the city, aud give,
some interesting facts relative to the
extension from Roswell, NM, tt
Amarillo, Tex.
Over l64 miles Of road are being
operated from Pecos City to Roswell
At Roswell the survey turns north
east, and keeps that course to Anna
rillo, 206 miles. At the latter point
which is on the Fort Worth & Denver
road, connection Is made with the
Santa Fe, which has acquired track
age rights over the Denver road from
Panhandle City via Washburn, 32(
miles north OF Fort Worth.
The line will run through the Capi.
tai Syndicate lands, and open up one
of the greatest breeding and grazing
grounds In the United States, land al
north Of the quarantine line. Cattle
can then be moved from Roswell Il
Amarillo in ten hours; now it take:
twenty days, for, rather than &c
through the quarantined part Of the
state OF Texas, cattle are driven
across the country. That is exp er
sive, and lengthens greatly the time
OF getting to market. In going from
Roswell to st. Louis or Kansas City
passengers will be saved $50 to 4O(
miles of travel.

All that the house conld do to bring

ately assumed the quality of a riot,

mandatory on the president, rather
than discretionary.

Gatlin's Record.
Daily Journal.

Daily Journal.
One of the men with the Home
Comfort steel range outfit Of st. Louis,
who have temporary headquarters in
this city, is said to be Wm. Gatlin,
the peddler who in 1894 defraudei the
insane Emma D. kirkland out of l60
acres of land lying three miles north
of South Haven. A majority OF the
people Of Wellington remember the
case. The newspapers at the time
gave it widespread nOtoriety.
Gatlin came to Mrs. Kirklands
home as peddler. She was simple
minded widow with five children.
Her sole thought and desire was 10
marry somebody. She and Gatlin
entered into liasiOn and cOhabited
together for several weeks as man and
wife. On the 26th day of June, 1894,
Galtn came to Wellington and exhib-
tied to the probate Judge deed con-
veying the l60 acres Of land from Mrs.
Kirkland to himself and asked il the
deed was all right. He was informed
that the deed was good and it was
duly ,corded. Gatlin then procured
mai riage license and was married to
Mrs. Kirkland. Immediately there
after he deserted her. Mrs. Kirk
lands friends soon learned of the mar.
riage and the transfer Of the farm and
began proceedings to have the deed
set aside and the marriage annulled.
She was tried in probate court as to
her sanity and sent to the Osawato.
mie insane asylum, where she died six
or eight months ago. Suit was brought
in district court by W. Fl. Staffelbach,
her guardian, tn have the deed set
aside. Ready & Ready represented
Gatlln. On October 2, 1894, the court
rendered decree In accordance with
the prayer Of the guardian and the
deed was set aside. N. E. Whiteside
was afterward appointed guardian Of
Mrs. Kirkland and Ia at present
guardian Of her children.
Mr.. Phil Gerhart, superintendent
travelling department Wrought Iron
Range Co., denies ever having known
Mr.. Gatlin, and says he is not now
one Of his agent and so far as he knows
never was. He says, however, that
Gatlin may have been employed by the
company wheL the wngoDs were here
before and be not have known OF 1t.

The term currency reform" fits the
subjects of his remarks fairly well. Yet
1t is misleading. inasmuch as it has
been appropriated and almost monopol-
ized in recent times by the advocates
OF monetary policy which is totally
distinct from the Presidents.
The policy of the so-called currency
reformers has for its central idea the
abolition of greenbacks and all other
united States notes, and the substitu-
ton for them of national bank bills
based on the assets of the banks. The
PRESIDENT does not favor airy such rad
ical project. He does not propose any
change in our national bank circula-
ton. nor any reduction in the quantity
OF our legal tender notes The United
States has no currency problem. 1t can
hardly be said to have a monetary
problem, so simple is the. remedy, but,
to the extent that this Government has
a problem. the question Is one of coin,
rather than paper. The President has
clear conception of this distinction.
1t would be well If some of those per-
sons who occasionally prevend to re-
d It his views had equally clear ideas
on this subject.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Juvenile lrresponsibility.

There Is an aged man down in the
southern part OF the State, says a
Denver paper, who has reached the
ripe old age of 102. He has a son 81
years of age, who stays with him and
sees that he is well cared for. There
are some funny stories told of the
straugely-mated father and son, and
one of them will bear repeating. The
old man likes his swig OF whisky
pretty regular, and is very fond of
having his visitors partake with him.
On one occasion recently he sent his
son down 70 the town about a mile
away for bottle OF elixir" and to
the old gentleman's disgust he was
away longer than 1t seemed necessary
for him to be.

ARE GAINING FAVOR,
MANY OBVIOUS ADVANTAGES or
DISCRIMINATING DUTIES.
Ihe Element of Permanence vitality
important in Any Plan Devised
for the Restoration of the American
Merchant Marine.

There is abundant reason to believe
that among practical and far-sighted
men the policy of protection to Amer
ican shipping, by means of discrimina-
ting duties upon Imports in foreign
vessels, is rapidly growing in favor.
Shipbuilders who have hitherto ex-
pressed doubts as to the wisdom OF
adopting this policy. and have leaned
toward some form OF subsidy or sub
'vention, now express the conviction
that the policy of discriminating du-
ties Is the only one likely to be effec-
tive and of permanent benefit. They
recognize the fact that subsidies are
dif1cult to obtain from Congress-; that
tney are unequal in their operation,
favoring a few and affording little or
no protection to the many; that the
subsidy measures heretofore passed
by Congress have originally been so
imperfect as TO require radical amend
ments; that the arguments in favor of
subsidies are easily controverted, and
that this form of protection would not
accomplish the desired end--the res.
toration Of the shipbuilding industry
and the creation of shipowning organi.
cations.
Subsidies might prove beneficial to
shipbuilding plants fully equipped for
the construction of passenger steam
ers, either large or small, for subsidies
would tend TO encourage the building
of such ships. But the demand for pas
senger vessels is comparatively linn
tied, and 1t Is not likely to increase
greatly. owing to the competition of
foreign ships either already on the

How TO Brew Tea

The chairman OF the government
committee of tea experts declares that
few Americans understand how to
make tea or how to obtain the maxi
mum benefit from 1t. 1t should be
taken between meals and without
much food, when it becomes a harm
less yet powerful tonic. England dis
covered the secret long ago, and hence
the universal custom OF the s o'clock
tea, midway between the luncheon
and dinner hour. The preparation of
the tea Is more important than the
quality, for the best tea badly drawn
Is worthless. First, the water must be
fresh; and. second, 1t must be thor
oughly boiled for ten minutes; third,
the tea must never be allowed to boil
and must never draw over ten minutes,
Prepared In this way, and limiting the
quantity to NOT more than FIVE cups a
day. the world might drink tea for a
century" says the expert, without
feeling any detrimental effect what

salt and pepper to taste; two table
spoonfuls Of chopped parsley, two or

bay leaves, and the juice of half large
lemon. This Is to be divided and half
spread thoroughly on top of the meat

twenty-four hours will give still better
results. Before cooking, If any of the
mixture is not absorbed. 1t must be

Cold Barns.

Those whose cattle barns are not
warm enough to work in comfortably
without an overcoat and mittens in the
winter, or even without any coat In
ordinary winter weather, may be sure
they are not warm enough for the cows
to do their best in, or for calves and
young stock to grow rapidly without
extra allowance of heating food. Gov
ering up cracks and seeing that win
dows and doors shut snugly will help
some, but we remember when a boy,
and when cows were kept in a barn
with unshing'ed sides and ends, having
to help line the walls back of the stock
with old boards and slabs nailed on the
inside of the posts and stuffing the space
between this lining and the outer
boards with bog hay. so that no wind
could come through. Taking ont the
old board slide window where the
manure was thrown ont into the yard
and putting in larger half window
from an old building. so that We had
light enough to take care OF the COWS
without leaving door or window open,
was another improvement. and all was
done at small expense and but little
labor. which were important considera-
tons In those days to poor farmers try
Ing to do the best they could with what
they had.-Boston Cultivator.
