EDDY'S NEW KITE SIGNAL.
Lantern Dropped From a Height of
900 Feet in Air.

A New York dispatch says: Will
liam A. Eddy, the kite expert; Fred
erick M. Slater and Harold Ramage
have experimental with a new night
war signal called the shooting starr
light. Mr.. Eddy raised two of the
kites, each seven feet in diameter, to q
height of 900 feet. After they were
steady in the air he attached one end
of the kite cable for a distance along
the ground. To this cable was fasten-
ed q two pound lighted cellar lantern
of five candle power.
When everything was ready Mr.. Ed
dy released the line on the ground and
the kites Immediately rose higher on
getting the extra rope. The lantern
shot straight upward into the air, held
by knot in the kite cable. When Mr..
Slater gave sharp side jar to the ca
BILE the lantern was released and de-
scended until within 20 feet of the
earth when it was run upon twospread-
ing cables to save it from being brOk-
en-.
Mr.. Eddy says that the shooting
star" signal can be seen at much
greater distance if the light is at a
,tandstill, and holds that by the use OF
variously colored lights communication
could be carried on at night between
different divisions of the army in places
without telegraph and telephone facil-
titles.

Brick Plant DAMAGED

Word was received in this city yes
terday that the storm of Monday night
worked considerable damage at Vim
ton. IL miles up the valley. AT that
point there is q press brick plant be-
longing to McCutcheon, Payne & Co.
The building was forty feet high, and
had two and half stories The walls
were solidly built of brick and were
eighteen inches thick.
Monday evening just about dark a
terrific storm came up. For few
moments il was impossible to see more
than Q few feet away from the house
near the mill in which were Mrs. North
and family, Mr.. North was in FL Paso
at the time.
In the midst of the storm there
seemed to come what is commonly
known rs q ''twister." There was q
crash, and great pieces of timber were
hurled past the house.. badly soaring
the people inside.
After the storm was over, Mrs.
North went out to investigate. She
found that the south wall Of the mill
was RACED to the ground. The upper
part OF the other three walls was fall
len in. Most of the upper floor and
the roof had fallen in on the machine
ry.
The plant had just been put in shape
to resume work. 1t is not yet known
what the real amount of the damage
is

Soldiers Under Fire.

1t is always interesting to the
civilian to know how soldiers behave
under fire. "A lieutenant of the Panther
was at Guantanamo and says: ''Dr
Gibbs, who was subsequently killed,
as you know, sat down by my side and
We were smoking and chatting to-
gether, when all at once we heard the
cracking of rifles behind the bushes
In jiffy the marines came rush
ing past us and up the hill. How did
they look? Well, L only remember
that they were saying as they passed
by me- Here the lieutenant laughed.
''They were all using the same epithet
and that was all they said, but you
could not print that. You can say
what they were cursing the Spaniards
and looked ravine mad as they tore
away in the direction of the fire.
Incidents? There were plenty of
them. One that L won't forget was
when Cuban was shot. He was a
darby, but a good one. He was shot
through the arm and the chest, and
his life was fast ebbing away when one
OF our men picked him up. We saw
that he was more dead than alive and
that 1t WAS useless to try to save him.
Still. we braced him up against q tree
and were going to try to stanch
the flow of blood when he called
out: 'Vive Cuba Libre.' and died.

was struck in the breast. He lived
only few minutes, and the first word
he said after he was shot-the last he
was ever destined to utter-were: Let
me go to my post, boys" He was Pc
cnl!ar sort of man, and seemed to know
nothing outside of his duties. He was
wrapped up in them. kansas CITY

What Good Roads Would Do.

A we'll informed authority on the
subject of public road states that there
are 800, 600 miles of public roads in
gregate amount OF 500, 900, 600 tons OF
freight is hauled annually. Estimating
the average distance over which freight
is thus hauled from the farm to the de
pot at eight miles, it is figured that the
tota! cost OF hauling freight annually
over the public roads in the United
States is 81 ,0O0, 200, 900, or 81 per ton.
With uniformly good public roads it is
claimed that the cost of hauling freight
from the farm to the depot ought not
to be more than S4O0, 900, 900, or $780,
600, 900 less than what it is at present.

White Oaks News.

Joe Gum has sold his ice plant to a
man from Alamogordo.
The White Oaks B. & L. Co.'S. CYAN
ide works are great success.
The North Homestake's new plant
OF machinery is reported to be en-
route.
Cattle and sheep are in fine condition
and the hay cutters are out in force on
the flats.
The South Homestake's ore bins are
full and they are ready for another
mill run.
Fine seasonable fruits and vegeta-
bles arrive daily, most of it raised
without irrigation.
The Little Mac owned by John Y.
Hewitt, Col. Pritchard and associates,
may start up soon.
The government weather observer
here, Mr.. Ozone, reports 10 inches of
rain to have fallen within the last 80
days. ,. --.-.,--
The cyanide works at the Abe will
soon be completed and the shipment of
rullion (gold) will be materially in
creased.
Long trains of heavy freight wagons
are seen almost daily on our streets.
Most of the freight is destined for
White Oaks, and the balance for out
lying towns, as this place ia the distri-
buting point for large territory.
Struggling investors occasionally
make their appearance here intending
to beat the railroad here, and get in Oh
the ground floor. One of the best bust
ness corners in town changed hands
recently, Mr.. Gus Schinzing being the
purchaser.
The building of the new railroad at
Roswell, win lncreate the demand for
White Oaks coal, which is in demand
by the blacksmith there, on account of it
having more. CARBON, less sulphur and
scale than any other coal west. OF
Pennsylvania White Oaks coal sells in
swell for S13. OO, Indian Territory for
800 per ton.
The Old Abe mine has cut the vein
at the $50 foot but it still holds it's
width and carries very rich ore. Mr.
Hewitt. the manager, expects to reach
the l 200 foot level inside of the next
30 days, when he will block out ore re-
serves on the different levels; the de-
velopment alone furnishes sufficient ore
to keep 20 stamps running.
VIM. Lane has started a new stage
line from here to Alsmogordo. This
will give Ell Paso people much short
er and quicker route to White Oaks
and an opportunity to enjoy a sojourn
away from the grinding cares of bust
ness in q pretty. we'll built little town,

number of coal-producing states has
5000 square miles of coal fields. Mr..
Edmonds considers that a conservative
estimate of the total value of the min

south for 1897 would be

agricultural products. an ag

Mr.. Edmonds shows, she has
iron ore and coal in unlimited supply,
and pig iron can be made at smaller
cost than any where in the United
States. More than one-half OF the
standing timber of the United States is
in the south. Climate, soil and min
eral resources fit it for both sgricul-
tural and manufacturing great
ness and in view of the stu
pendous results accomplished in
the past fifteen years no one can
forecast the magnitude of the develop
ment of the future. It is pleasing to
Texans who scan these figures to reflect
that in this race of southern progress
Texas has led all the rest, that she
alone is capable of development far
exceeding all that the entire south
boasts of TODAY.
