The Earring Again Becoming Popular.

The Earring Again Becoming Popular.
Earrings are coming in again, and
while fashions slaves are merely pro-
testing that they will not wear the
barbarous things. they will undoubted-
~ submit in the end. The edict has
gone forth that earrings are to be
worn again. and the jewellers are pre-
pared for an immediate demand for
that article of jewelry. which was rele-
gated to oblivion ten years ago One
drawback to the revival is that nine
out of every ten women will need to
have their ears pierced again, and ev-
cry woman has an acute remembrance
of that painful ordeal in the past
When or mothers were young 1t was
the custom to pierce the ears by put
ting cork behind them. stretching the
lobe Of the ear tight over the cork, and
then piercing with a needle. afterward
drawing a silken thread and a gold
ring. made especially for the purpose.

Do Girls Lack Honor

Many men there are who insist that
the majority of girls of today are lack
ing in honor if not in common homes
fy- One man, who is well to do in the
world and does not care rush for a
dollar and is continually loaning small
sums to his young women friends, as
serts that he has seldom IL ever been
repaid. and fears that he would be
attacked with heart pa tation IL
tender OF payment OF these loans
should be made. But men are not the
only victims of the borrowing girl.
She frequently mulcts those of her
ovn sex. 1t may be safely said that
ne girl who borrows half a dollar from
p Gkl chum when shopping because
her own funds have been exhausted
and then fails to return it as soon as
she receives her next weeks allowances
Is the very girl who, when she becomes
q housekeeper, will thrust all of her
bills into drawer, shut them up and
finally scheme all sorts of ways to
meet them. and falling in her ability
to do so. pout and say that the trades
people are mean things not to ex-
tend her credit, says an exchange
Every schoolgirl knows the type of
girl who would not be thought stingy
for the world. Is jolly and ready to
go halves" on all sorts of fun, yet
who often negleets to reimburse the
one who has stood the whole expense
because at the moment it was more
convenient or less conspicuous to do
SO. This girl will finally meet the
Obligation. but she will do SO at her
convenience. Maybe the girl who has
footed the bilI'' will suffer all sorts of
little inconvenience because of the I'M
usual demand made upon her purse,
but pride forbidding her mentioning it
she just suffers in silence The girl
even with an almost limittess income
should be taught to know that she is
one OF the fortunate few, that perhaps
her girl associates must be as careful
Df their pennies as she is OF her dollars
and that without show or any indica-
fton OF patronage she should always
meet and never neglect any obligation.

HAPPENINGS IN THE TERRITORY

Arthur Hughes, manager of the Por-
ter mines at Hillsboro, is after leasers
for the eight properties managed by
him. The main working shafts are on
the Snake and Opportunity claims, and
are down 500 and 470 feet, respectively.
Several smaller shafts, varying from so
to 100 feet, have been sunk on the other
properties. The Snake vein averages %
feet in width, and the Opportunity vein
five feet, with a cross vein of four feet.
The Snake vein values range from $40
to s45 per ton, and the Opportunity is
SIS per ton. The total output of the last
year of the properties with 50 leasers
was SIS, 900. The mines are owned by
Henry M. Porter, of Denver.
Denver men have taken possession of
the Ajax mine, of Elizabethtown, and
the property may be sold at sheriff
sale.
The Santa Fe road will shortly begin
work on a branch from Springer to Cim-

New Mexico's PenItentiary.

The biennial report of the board of
commissioners of the New Mexico peni-
tertiary covering a term ending Decem-
Der 81, 1898, has been placed in Governor
Otero's hands.
The board, which is composed of O. A.
Hadley, president, of Mora county;
Charles r. Easley, secretary, of Santa
Ity; Henry Young, of Taos county; J.
francisco Chaves, of Valencia county:
Francisco Miera, of Union county, and
S~aturnino Baca, of Lincoln county, was
organized and began it's duties in con-
formity with section 3491 of the Com
piled Laws of 1897, in March, 1897, and
held II meetings during the years 1897
and 1898. At Zach meeting the commits
sioners visited the prison and at all
times found it in an excellent state of
order.
The sanitary condition of the institu-
ton is excellent, as the p%enitentiary
physician, DR.. w. S. Harroun, testifies
in his report, which shows that il two
years, out of a population averaging
over 200, only two deaths occurred, one
from heart failure and the other from
lobar pneumonia, the total number of
inmates on December 81 being 204. The
board is of the decided opinion that one
of the conditions which has conduced
to the good health of the prisoners is
the quality of food and other supplies
that have been furnished, which We're
of the best and of sufficient quantity to
give each prisoner all that he required.
The average cost of keeping the prison
ers for the year ending 1898 was $0.1363
each per day.
The expenses for the institution for
the two years were $91, 0O5.67 and the
earnings were $14, 941. 95, making the net
cost of maintaining the prison, for two
years, $76, 063.72 {. In that time there
have been new buildings erected and
improvements made which amount to
$64, 246.04. The brick yard, during the
two years, turned out 2,125, 1888 mer-
charitable bricks. Of that number
1876, 900 We're sent to the insane asylum,
1,5O0, 900 to the new capitol building,
222, $50 We're sold and 566, 1872 were used
in making improvements on the peni-
tertiary property.
The statistics concerning the prison
ers are interesting and furnish subjects
for thought among the reformers who
are engaged in prison work. They are
as follows:
Religions represented: Roman Cath
olics, 154; protestants, 33; C%onfucian, q;
no religion, rs. Educational: Number
of convicts not able to read and write,
IS; number who car read
but not write, 80; number
educated in public schools, 104;
number educated in colleges, 6. Intelli-
gence: Number of good intelligence,
1903; number Of fair intelligence, "a;
number deficient in intelligence, II.
Age: Number under 20 years, 10; from
20 to %, 81; from rs to 80, "A; from 30 to
So, 3S; from IS to 40, SO; from 40 to As,
%; from As to so, is: from so to GO, g.;
over go, 2. Among the prisoners are
representatives from q different states
and territories, and nine foreign
tries.
The report is complete in every par
ticular, and is filled with statistical ia
bles showing the nature of improve
ments made, the different items of cost
in maintaining the institution and the
earnings of the different industrial de-
%partments.

Many of the papers and statesmen OF
the country are crossing a good-sized
bridge before they get to it, in the Phil
ippine matter. Neither the administra
ton nor ngr has decided what will
be the ultimate disposition of those ISL
ands, and until some decision is reach
ed there is no occasion for nightmares
and daily horror. A large majority IF
the people of the United States are in
favor of holding the islands until d sta
BILE form of government can be given the
Filipinos, at least, and when that has
been accomplished it will be tin G
enough to look into the distant future
1t is safe to say, however, that by the
time order has been restored in the
Philippines by the United States, tho
people of the islands will voluntarily
become a territory of this country.

Exports still expand. The monthly
report of the bureau of statistics of the
treasury for December shows that ex-
ports of breadstuffs, provisions, includ-
ing cattle and hogs, cotton and mineral
oils, We're in value 1893, 273, 500, against
1888, $50, 606 for the corresponding month
of 1897, and for the calendar year 1898
We're $3.50, 667, 1874, against 1898, go, TAT for
1897. In considering the volume of ex-
ports the lower prices of the two main
items, wheat and cotton, must be taken
into account, which increase quantities
far more than increased values indicate.
With such enormous quantities of
wheat and cotton going abroad the
question of prices will not long remain
in doubt, and before the crops of 1899
are gathered there will be a furry in
the markets very similar to that OF
last spring.
