The fruit growers and people gener-
ally should remember that the most sue
ceSsful fair that will be held in New
Mexico this year will be the Horticul-
tural fair which opens in this city on
September 7. The displays that will be
made at that show will surprise the
most enthusiastic New Mexico boomer,
and there will be a large attendance of
visitors for the purpose of looking at
the luscious fruit raised in the territory.
The proper thing to do this year will be
to attend the Horticultural fair, and
those who fail to be present will miss
the prettiest sight on record and the
social treat of the season.

The Americans have the reputation
among other nations for being money
grubbers, and yet the bloodiest wars
that have been fought by this country
have been for the upholding of princi-
pies which were thought to be right.
The war with Spain, while not as dis
astrous to life as those of earlier days,
was no exception to the rule, and more
than that, it was fought to free fellow
men from oppression and starvation.
Perhaps as the world grows older the
European countries will realize that
while the average American has a
fondness for money, he also is filed
with a spirit of fairness and compassion
that even exceeds the passion for amass-
ing a fortune.

cause for the United States firing on his
vessels. Whether or not he was acting
with the knowledge and sanction of the
emperor is a matter which does not make
much difference, although the actions of
the German admiral have not been such
as to inspire Admiral Dewey with much
confidence. So far as the escape of Au-
gusti is concerned no one cares a cent.
The United States has already a job lot
of Spanish prisoners on hand that can
not be gotten rid of.

FOUR BACHELORS CALL.


Accept Peggy's Invitation, but She Fails tc
Remember Their Names.
When Charlie called, Peggy proposed
that they call on the Weston girls. Ac'
cordingly u few minutes later Charlie
touched the bell at the pretty little apart
ment in which the Westons had their cozy
home, but repeated ringing brought no re
sponse
They're out again" walled Peggy.
Its funny, though, that the maid doesn't
answer. Have you some cardsg'
Charlie finally drew out one d~ilapidated
p~asteboard, bearing the words, miss

ward"
Lets write something ON it, just for
fun, " suggested Peggy.
So her attendant cavalier scrawled, land
Charlie, " after the formal cognomen of
Miss Peggy, adding: ''Why can't you stay
home one night at least? We're not com
ing again till you've been up to see us. "
This edifying epistlc was tucked under the
door, and the disappointed callers strolled
out into the soft spring air.
Three evenings later Peggy was trying
to pass the time in patience, for Charlie
was III Of town, when the maid appeared
with four immaculate cards announcing
Mr.. Chester Grayson, Mr.. Thomas Todd
Smith, Mr.. John j. Carpenter and Mr..
Grant A. Holden.
81 don't know them," said Peggy.
"They must be friends of Sister Ellen"
"No, ma'am," insisted the maid. "They
asked for Miss Margaret Haskins."
Peggy knew her tendency to forget
names, so a moment later she confronted
four grave young men III irreproachable
evening dress, all bowling with beautiful
grace and smiling with beautiful effect.
Peggy screwed her pretty forehead in q
tangle, but couldn't to save her life place
her guests.
"It'sa beautiful spring evening, began
Mr.. Chester Grayson.
"You are looking charmingly WE'LL"
cooed Mr.. Thomas Todd Smith.
"We feared we should not find you at
home" ventured Mr.. John J. Carpenter.
"Where is Charlie? We hoped he would
be here" put in Mr.. Grant A. Holden.
All this time Peggy was going through
a series of inward qualms, but the ques-
ton about Charlie set her at case, and she
plunged into a chummy little confession
Of how lonesome she was with her devoted
swain out of town. A half hour later she
found herself begging the quartet to come
again, after which she went up stairs to
puzzle out where she had met these men
before.
The following afternoon as Peggy was
about to board q down town car Fannie
Weston ran up to her and exclaimed:
"You'll get our new at home cards to-
morrow. We're in Kenwood-been out
there over two weeks"
Peggy's head reeled as she hung fran
tically over the back platform and pleaded:
who has your old flatp"
And as the conductor rang the signal to
go ahead Fannie called in%nocently from
the curbstone:
