CARMEN NOTES.
A Man And Horse Drowned in The
bio Bravo.

On the evening of the Both the river
having fallen and being easily fordable
q Mexican borrowed horse to cross,
wishing to pay visit to his wife and
child at Boquillas, Mex. He promised
the owner to return in a few hours but
he stayed until morning, when the rlv-
err had risen again. Having crossed
one branch safely, he would not at
tempt the second branch where assist
snce was waiting him at the old ford
In trying to cross back to Mexico he
lost his nerve. Holding to the bridl e
he pulled the horse under the water and
both were drowned. AT this point
nearly opposite the smelter assistance
could not be rendered. The body has
not been recovered.
There has not been much water IN
the river this summer and yesterday
afternoon five large freight wagons
(empty) belonging to Don Santiago
Stopelli were passed over without any
difficulty. A small rise however, al
tiers the crossings and it has been Gus
tomary for some experienced hands &c
test them each time the river falls. be
fore the fords can be reported safe.
Superintendent P. Henderson at the
mines has some fine carrier pigeons
The young birds are carried to and frC
on the semi-weekly stage to Marathon

TWO RundWdyS.

Last afternoon there were two run
Always. One which attracted much at
tention was Caldwell's gray team at
tached to light buggy, driven by Mr.
De Bush, who is employed in Blumen-
thal's dry goods store.
Mr.. De Bush and a young woman
were driving on Myrtle street beyond
the T. z. crossing when one of the bug
gy wheels came Off and the two occu-
pants of the vehicle were thrown out
on the ground.
The team became frightened because
of the double tree striking their legs.
They commenced to run, and got away
from Mr.. De Bush. They tore down
Myrtle street, having a clear right OF
way, as everything got out of the road
They continued their mad course
through San Antonio to Ell PasO street.
At the First National bank corner one
of the horses slipped and fell throwing
the other. The buggy turned over, and
while the horses were on the ground
two or three bystanders ran up and un-
hitched them from the buggy.
The many friends of the couple in
the buggy are thankful that they es-
capped as lightly as they did. There
were one or two narrow escapes from
collision.

The Civ Schools.

This morning the city schools were
reopened. The session was short owing
to the day being legal holiday.
Professor Putnam told the represen-
tative of the HERALD that the pros
poets this morning were that the
schools of Ell Paso have one OF the
most prosperous years ahead OF them
tn at they have ever had. 81 hardly
expected as many to come in this morn
ing as did. for two reasons, the first
that seldom do all the children come
the first dsy, and then today is holt
day, and that kept good many away
today We have had a
good start this morning though; IN
the Central school and the Frank
lin school we have enrolled about 467
and in the kindergarten we have this
morning already SO. So you can see we
had good deal of work to do. We
have told all those who came this
morning what books they would need
and tomorrow their first lessons will be
assigned, so by Wednesday we hope to
have the schools moving along nicely.
The new teachers have taken hold as
if they had been here in Ell Paso teach
ing for the last two or three years, and
they all seem to be thoroughly compe-
tent to do the work given them"

No National Park.

From the present stand taken by
the people of Ell Paso in regard to the
government creating a national park
up in the Mescalero country, it seems
that there will be no national park.
The meeting which was called for
last Saturday night at the court house
was very SHINY attended. The officers
of the previous meeting and one or two
others were there.
Judge Blacker took the chair and j.
D. Ponder acted as secretary to the
meeting.
The first man to come before the
meeting was J. P. Dieter. Mr.. Dieter
asked fer the report of the committee.
He was in favor of pushing the matter
of having park up there in the noun
tains, but the committee had not pre-
prepared report he didn't see that
there was anything to discuss. He
took the position that as the people
had at the first meeting decided that a
park was wanted by them, an effort
should be made to secure the park.
Judge Bryan, of Las Vegas, was pre-
sent and he proceeded to make strong
argument against national parks. He
gave the meeting his reasons, and as
serted that this reservation would be d
detriment to Ell Paso's future.
At this point, Prof. Heermans, an
elOcutlOn teacher, paralyZed the audi
ence by asking permission to speak up
on the matter. He took stand against
railroad corporations in general, and
Attorney Hawkins of the White Oaks
road and his friends didn't seem to like
il altogether. but there was no way for
them TO sGuelch the man, so he talked
until he got through.
Mr.. Hawkins then read letter from
President c. B. Eddy of the White
Oaks line, in which he said TIL at il
that part of the country was turned in
to a park it would embarrass the pros
poets of their road. After reading the
letter Mr.. Hawkins made few re-
MARKS urging that the park PROPOSE
ton be dropped in the interest of the
railroad and Ell Paso.
There was little more talk and il
was finally agreed that as the citizens
OF Ell Paso had taken so little interest
in the matter it should be dropped
The meeting then adjourned.

PERSIST IN THEIR FOLLY

The fact that the spiritualists are celebrating their golden anniversary" shows once more the persistency of the human race in delusion and folly. Nothing has ever been more complete ly exposed than the manifestations" to which so-called "mediums' treat their dupes. The longing after i'm mortality and the evidence of immor- tal1ty is natural and proper. But the spir1tualistic nonsense could not grat- fly such a longing even if it were not humbug from beginning to end "Spir- it's are not finely touched but to fine issues" Those who have felt them selves in closest communion with the unseen world have not depended upon the vulgar banalities of spirit rappings and table tippings. It is often said indeed that the modern spiritualists have discarded their former supersti- tions, and great efforts have been made to give a psychic value to their investigations. But can men gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles? Charlatanism presided over spiritualism at it's birth, and to call it a religion" now is to insult every decent and self respecting form of faith.

THAT TORPEDO FLOTILLA.

Spain's torpedo fotilla is under stood to be crossing the Atlantic. The threat this time IS not even yelled, and delay in meeting it may imperil some of our valuable ships.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
 Spain is no longer disposed to con- suit the wishes or to accept the sug- gestions of our government. The Sagasta administration assumes an of fensive attitude and sends against us a cartel of defiance.-Philadelph Tel egraph.
 The United States possesses torpedo boats but no torpedo destroyers which of course could destroy ships as well as torpedo boats. Torpedo destroyers could play no part in putting down the Cuban insurgents. The latter have no navy and no commerce. The act i'm puted to Spain is one of intended dan ger to this nation.-Brooklyn Eagle.
 Of course the sailing of these formid- able little fighting ships, which unfor- tunately, the United States can not match in kind, might at another time warrant the interpretation that the Spanish government was seeking to placate the war faction on the eve of an election, but this would be very dangerous business, because the dis patch of the f1otilla is an offensive an- swer to the representation of the United States government that the sailing of the fleet from the Canaries would be regarded as an unfriendly act.-New York Evening Sun.

Mrs. Charles Robinson, widoweof the late ex-governor, has filed a public pro test against a likeness of Senator Plumb being placed in one of the pan els of the capitol dome as one of the sixteen representatives of Kansas. She charges that at the time of the free state troubles it was in Plumb's power to have prevented the sacking and burning of Lawrence, but that he re- trained from using it.-Leavenworth Times.
