The best pigeons for raising sorahs
are cross between the runt and the
common pigeon. When these are NOT
readily obtainable the next best are
the common ones. The white ones arc
preferable to the blue, for the reason
that the squads bring higher nricas

asanother Squads should bekfIlad insf
before they are ready to leave the nest
Al TINS time they are fatter. heavier
ana tenderer than at any other. They
are killed by bleeding in the mouth

drawn.
AS the birds pair, it is necessary to
nave as many males as females j.
ORDER 60 prevent constant quarre!5n.
and each pair of birds should hay :
separate nesting place.
one of the best ways of provfd.na
Tor this is to put up a row of shelves
ana divide them into apartments not
less than foot square. Half of the
open space should be covered with a
board to shelter the nests from the

4 setting of eggs will be laid and
Matched ia every month except February.
This is the pairing month.
the best plan of feeding IS in
uoughs or hoppers, always feeding
literally. Gray peas, wheat and corn
make good ration, cracking the corn
always; corn alone is too fattening.
Provide plenty of pure fresh water
where they can help themselves.
Cleanliness is essential to health.

According to a paper read before the
Scientific society at Preston, England,
a queen bee sometimes lays at the rate
of two eggs a minute, and the total
weight of the eggs is one and a-half
times that of her own body on sum
mer day. AS she lives four or five
years, she must lay about 100000 in
the course of her life. Her eyes are
smaller than those of the other bees,
owing to her long residence in the hive.
Her sting is three hundred times small
Ter in diameter than pin, and as she
can seldom draw it out after singing
a person, she leaves it in and dies af-
terward.

Nothing perforates bombastie ora
tory like a sharp question. When
Burke, in the height of a labored pero-
ration in Parliament against France,
drew dagger and threw it on the
floor, somebody made the act absurd
by saying, yes, that's the knife.
Where's the fork?"
Equally sharp was the reply of Pope
Plus TX, when the cardinals met and
eloquently condoled with him on the
sufferings in certain villages from
earthquake and famine.
How much are you sorry, my breth-
REM" he said. How many lire does
your sympathy weigh? ?"
The only answer possible to this
question was the relief of the villages.

LEGISLATIVE GOSSIP.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
A bill to provide for a constitutional
convention and the formation of a
state constitution is being considered
by the leading Republicans of the ter
ritory, and such a measure was intro
duced in the council yesterday by Hon.
Thomas Hughes. The bill sets forth
that the reasons for the continuance
of a territorial government in New
Mexico have long ceased to exist and
that such a form of government is the
most unsatisfactory hat can be de-
vised, being a government temporary
and uncertain in it's character, posses
sing no sovereign powers and failing to
meet the requirements of the people.
The treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, X e
cuted February 2, 1S4S, between the
American and Mexican governments,
stipulated that the people OF New Mex
leo should be incorporated into the
union of the United States at the
proper time to the enjoyments of all the
rights of citizens of the United States
according to the principle of the con-
stitution," and the bill will show that
the time for admission has long since
passed. 1t is shown hat the popula-
ton, wealth and intelligence of Mexico
have steadily increased n are still
increasing. making a territorial sys-
TEN of government wholly inadequate
to the interests and demands of the
people. A delegate convention is called
to meet in Santa Fe on the first Tues
day after the first Monday in Septem-
Der, 1899, for the purpose of framing a
constitution republican in form. The
convention shall be composed of "a
delegates apportioned to the various
as follows: Bernalillo county, ~ dele
gates: Chaves, 2: Colfax, 5; Dona
Ana, g.; Eddy, 1; Grant, 5; Guadalupe,
3; Lincoln, 3; Mora, s; Rio Arriba, Z;
San Juan, 2; San Miguel, IL; Santa Fee,
Z: Sierra, 2; Socorro, Z; Taos. 5; IN
ion, 3; Valencia, 5. Each new county
organized before the delegates are
chosen shall be entitled to one delegate.
The election for the purpose of choos-
ing delegates shall be held the first
Tuesday after the first Monday in Au-
gust, 1899, and shall be conducted the
same as delegate elections under the
general laws of the territory. Notice
of election shall be served 20 days prior
thereto. Boards of county commits
sioners shall appoint judges of election
and anvass the returns. No one shall
vote who is not a qualified elector of
the territory. The name of the proposed
state shall be New Mexico. To defray
the expenses of the convention the ter
ritorial auditor is empowered to levy
a tax during the 50th fiscal year of one-
fourth of a mill upon the taxable prop
erty of the territory, to be levied and
collected in the that other ter
ritOrial taxes are. The money derived
shall be used for such expenses as the
pay and per diem of it's employees,
