two cities for the 100 miles, In fact all
the roads running out OF Denver are

As a detachment of colored troops
stopped over at Albuquerque yesterday,
one of the BOYS who had more corn juice
aboard than was good for his equilibrium,
wandered over to engage in more or less
animated conversation with some In
dams on the further end of the depot
platform. The commanding officer
ordered the soldier back to his place,
but was not obeyed. Then the officer
ordered a sober soldier to cover the
delinquent with his rife and to make a
sieve out of him If he did not then Oboy.
The drunken soldier sobered up when
he saw what was coming, and concluded
to do as he was told.

or not the current expense moneys of
the city may be devoted legally to the
liquidation Of the accrued interest on
the so-called Bateman law. There APP
pears to be some controversy among
the legal profession as to the propriety
of applying any current expense funds
to such purpose. Yet the fact remains
that the interest on these bonds is I'M
paid and considerable discomfort among
the holders thereof exists in conse-
quence. The Bateman law, enacted in
1897. provided a method for the pay
ment of such interest, by levy by the
county commissioners, which machinery
of course could not become effective
for the year 1898. The first levy under
that act possible to be made was in May,
1898, which provides funds only for the
year 1899. In that status of the law,
the city authorities are anxious, if II is
possible, to discharge the 1898 interest
out of the general expense funds of
1898. 1t is sincerely to be hoped that
this may be found to be in accordance
with the spirit of the law.

the mill troubles in the states of New

ripple of interest which may create
internal dissentions among the strik-
