4 Famous Corner in the Bookstore
of McCIurg, Recently Burned.
From the Chicago Evening Post.
"Field named it, said DR.. N. d. Hills.
II was rather too young to know much
about the Saints and Sinners Corner but
remember it we'll as one of the most de
lightfuI of places There were many books
Of rare value, and many that were inter
esting and curious, though not so costly.
The most notable volume that / remember
in the corner was very fine edition of
Rusk!n's works. 1t was the original edition
Of 1918, and was rendered even more at
tractive by the fact that Rusldn himself
had presented il to Frank Hollyer, the ar
list How it got into the Saints and Sim

brilliant conversation at times, and very

books As a rule they oil talked of rare ed
it!ous of curious editions, of fine libraries
they had seen or dreamed of, and occa-
sionally they told stories

times they read whole chapters, sometimes
they only SKINNED through titles and
chapter headings and sometimes they sim

OF the volumes they knew so well and
priced SO highly. II was sometimes more
than book store to them"

A FILTHY PRACTICE
The City's Sewerage Used By China
men To FertiliZe Their Gar
don

To the Editor:-Some weeks ago
| while riding along the river [ saw a
curious machine worked by horse DOW
er. [ noticed some busy Chinese gard
eners working among a thrifty looking
lot OF vegetables.
L said to my SOD, "Where do they get
water enough to produce such an
abundant growth? There has been
very little water in the river or canals
this summer
"Do you see that horse power ma
chine over there?" he asked.
"1 es, but [ see no water"
They do not get pure water, but
pump up the sewerage" A thick, bor-
rible mess of it is running over the
beets, turnips, onions, cabbage, lettuce
and fresh radishes.
The filth from the sewers of Ell Paso,
The mere thought is sufficient to bring
nausea to the strongest stomach. Stand
lng for moment where the horrible
mess runs along the bitches on tae
rows OF spinach, cabbage, etc, turn
ed with disgust and losthipg. 1t is not
very pleasant to think of what our
citizens have been eating all summer
in the line of Chinese-grown veget-
sbles.
A friend told me ne also had noticed
the Cinnamon using sewerage in their
gardens, and has discontinued buying
anything from them. No wonder there
has been so much sickness in Ell Paso.

S. L. Hughes Has Turned WASHING
ton Park Over to the Citv.

| ''The city council perhaps did not
fully understand the situation when it
passed the resolution ordering me to
| vacate the park" said S. L. Hughes
this morning.
81 have always offered the grounds
free to any one who would help take
care of them or help in any way to
promote outdoor amusements
1T simply seems to me that | can't
find the right man to take care of the
grounds for their use and [ hope the
city council will hire some one to take
care of the grounds and live there who
will not be interested in the races. but
viii! make fine public park out of
It. Then the boys can club together.and
O1er the city so much of the gate money
for use OF the grounds.
Let the mayor appoint the judges
and We can then have some true
sports.
.! am not going to claim the 90 days
notice, as hunted Mr.. Catlin up last
evening and placed the grounds under
the city's control, as they have been
in the past.''
