CROWD IN THE PLAZA.
Received News of the Prize Fight
Last Night.

The plaza was overcrowded last
evening by men, women and children,
WHO while enjoying the concert were
given an opportunity OF knowing the re-
turns from the fight as soon as they
were received from the wires.
The bulletins, as the fight progress
ed, were thrown by means of a stereop-
tican on q large canvas at the west of
the plaza, which was watched by a
magnificent audience of over two thou
sand people.
AS the bulletins were flashed on the
canvas in the plaza last night giving
the progress of the fight by rounds,
the crowd of spectators cheered as
their favorite gained point, and as
the fight progressed 1t was evident that
it was Jeffries following.
When the final bulletin was received
and posted, claiming a knockout for
Jeffries in the eleventh round, the
crowd cheered Justify.
Bulletins were received at other
places, where crowds of excited sports
collected and eagerly read each mes
sage. Betting at the time for the fight
to begin was to 10 in favor of Jeffries
but earlier In the evening Fitz was the
favorite with odds of 4 to 5.

Becoming Civilized.

The Mexicans working on the rail-
roads here seem to, have caught onto
the scheme of striking, says the Lords
burgLiberal. A short time ago some
of those working for the Arizona &
New Mexico road went on trike. but
it did not take long to fill their places.
Monday the men employed in the
Southern Pacific coal yard had pref
ty easy time, there having been but
one engine to coal that day, so little
other work was prepared for them,
just to keep them busy. They resent
ed the request to do other work than
to shovel coal, and said they would
quit first. They were allowed to quit
and it did not take long to fill their
places. One of the gang came around
afterwsrd and proved an alibi. He
was away from the yard at the time
the strike was organized, and declared
himself willing to do all kinds of work,
and was reinstated. The amalgamated
brotherhood of coal beavers has not
taken up the su bject as yet with Gen
eral Manager Kruttscbnitt. When 1T
does there is no doubt but orders will
be issued to let the coal beavers do
nothing but heave coal.

SANTA FE DIVIDEND.
A Sami- Annual Payment of ST rs
Per Share is Ordered.

A New York dispatch ssye: The
following resolution was passed by the
Atchison directors today:
"Whereas, It appears from returns
and careful estimates that the surplus
net earnings OF the company for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1899. after
deducting all charges and the full in
terest on the adjustment bonds and af-
ter setting apart reasonable sum as
a reserve are sufficient to pay q semi
annual dividend of IL per cent on the
preferred stock in July and another
dividend of II per cent January next,
making q per cent out Of the surplus
net earnings of the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1899: therefore be 1t
Resolved, That q semi-annual dfv1-
dend of 81 25 per share on the preferred
stock of the company be, and it is here
by declared, out of the surplus net
earnings, payable July 20, 1899"

THIS WAY, PLEASE.
The Southern Pacific Establishing
Flower Beds Along the Line
ATaIk With an Official.

The Southern Pacific people are
beautifying their property west of here
with flower beds and it is the general
opinion on this end OF the line that Ell
Paso should be remembered in the
matter AT the shops August Schmidt
has several flower beds, but they are
only enjoyed by the employees as few
visitors call there.
Regarding this matter the Lordsburg
Liberal says:
1.-The Southern p scific road is put
ting flower garden at many OF its sta
tions for the purpose of showing travel
ers what may be made to grow in this
country when the soil is supplied with
water. There are no farmers connect
ed with the road at this place, but as
soon as the company can lind compe-
tent oue it is expected that this station
viii bloom as rose"
That such improvements are needed
along the line no one will deny. and
when approached on the subject an Of
fetal on this end of the line said: II
agree with you that a few flower beds,
well taken care of, are needed on this
end of the line, but if the wind
keeps up this way we would have to let
our forces loose every morning to sho-
vel the flowers from beneath the sand.
If the flower beds we're neglected for 8
few days the chances are that we would
never find them All the while he
was talking he was wiping the sand
from his eyes and his sarcastic refer
epce- to our climate are excusable un-
der the circumstances.

Best All.Year Route to California

Is the Southern Pacific. The travel
ing public can easily understand this
when it Ia known that this is the only
line running coaches through to Cali
fornia points without change, the only
line running tourist sleepers direct
from FL Paso to Los Angeles and San
Francisco, the only line running pull
man palace cars direct to the above
named cities without transfer and the
only line running buffet cars, thus en-
aiding passengers to obtain their meals
at hours convenient to themselves.
Seventeen hours shorter time to Los
Angeles than by other lines.
No changing cars during nights,
enroute.
Parties going to the Pacific Coast
for a rest should make q note these
facts.

as it might be but when it is remem-
bered that the old number of the en-
CINE, before the new numbers were
adopted, was 504. it seems familiar.
"Bill" Rain made more than one
speedy trip on 5O4 and if she could tell
stories some startling tales might be
told.
For long time 504 carried the big
brass star and spear head that used to
be on the front of William Frisbie's
engine before be was killed. That
spear head has cut the wind for many
a fast run and that big brass star just
under the headlight has flashed past
many a depot and switch light in re-
cord breaking time. The old 5O4, with
it's new number 293, is q freight engine
on the chain gang service but has lost
none of those old characteristics for
running.-Topeka State Journal.

Six soldiers arrived here yesterday
afternoon over the G. 81. bound for San

charged exorbitant prices for every
thing they purchased all along the

them, "of paying 25 cents for sand
witch not larger than an English wal
nut. A tablespoonful of coffee, III
cents. beer so cents a bottle, and 30 on.
Who do you suppose could stand such
prices? They know we must eat and
they are taking advantage of us. "
