On a Tour of Inspection.

At six o'clock yesterday morning q
train of five special cars carrying the
annual inspection party of the Santa
Fe pulled into the depot at this point
and at once the party began vigorous
inspection of the Santa Fe property on
this end of the line. The party con-
sisted of the presidents assistant,
G. M. Higginson, General Manager
Frey, General Superintendent Nudge,
Car Service Superintendent Kouns,
General Passenger Agent Black,
Superintendent of Telegraph Shotes,
Chief Engineer Dun, Resident Engi-
neer Grant, Division Superintendent
Hurley, Train Master Aver, and J. A.
Hortan, superintendent of bridges
and buildings. All departments of the
Santa Fe were visited by the party
and they all were found as neat and
clean IS the conditions would
allow. It was the opinion of
the party that Ell Paso was
badly in need of q new depot and the
possibility of, q new one will be con-
sfdered by them upon their return to
headquarters. The work of inspection
lasted until 9 o'clock at which time
the special with the officials
train pulled .out for the
cold winds of the north we'll satisfied
with their visit to this end of the line.
The party was accom- panied'north from
this point by General Agent Houghton.

Odd Funeral Customs.

A Pennsylvania paper says that to the
stranger who for the first time attends the
funeral OF a Pennsylvania German the
sight of the men AZ with their hats on in
the church is certainly a curious one. Silk
hats, straw hats, felt hats, derbies-in
fact, every kind of headgear except caps
greets the eye. The wearers are supposed
to be in such grief that they are for the
time being excused from any observance
of the conventional behavior In a house Of
worship.
Forty or so years ago the whisky bottle
played an important part at funerals, but
such was the disorder on some occasions
that the clergy with one accord refused to
offioiate at funerals where liquid refresh
ment was furnished. The old custom of
serving funeral meats is still observed
among some of the farmers, and 400 or
500 people are sometimes fed, most of
whom never saw the deceased in whose
honor the barbecue is held.

With Seven Chlnamen.

J. E. Gagne arrived in this city yes
terday afternoon over the G. 81. from
Havana, with seven Cinnamon in bond.
Mr.. Gagne was bound for San Fran
tiscO with his charge and says that he
was promised an assistant to help land
the Cinnamon in San Francisco but
this part Of the agreement had not been
fulfilled. Mr.. Gagne said that he
had been unable to obtain any sleep
since he left New Orleans
and that if an assistant was not
furnished him at Deming, N. M,
be was going to lock the Cinnamon in
an immigrant car ard 60 to sleep. He
said that his charge needed watching
every minute until they left this coun-
try. They were not at all anxious to
leave 60 and If an opportun-
ity was afforded them it is safe to cay
that they would not leave. Mr.. Gagpe
will be gone about ten days on his
western trip and then he will return
to lis headquarters in New Orleans.

Rumors of a Change.

It Is rumored on good authority that
j. J. Frey, at present general manager
of the A. T. & 8 F. road, will accept
the position of eenerel manager of the
California Southern, branch of Santa
Fe system. It is said that John Player
will succeed Mr.. Frey as
general manager of the A. T. & S. F.
Mr.. Frey had handled the business
of the line at present under his charge
very ably and it is needless to say that
the business of the California Southern
will show q decided increase under his
careful management.

At last we are out Of the largest state

twelve mile grade that slopes to the
Rio Grande. The powerful engine Is

to EN- bankments and cuts high up In
the air. These in turn are left behind.

except lonely pair of ravens winding
their way towards the crest OF low
deserted hill, where the foot of man

bleached and Rlistening bones and
skulls of animals no doubt overcome
by the drouth on the hot barren alksi
plains under the scourchfng rays OF
the pitiless run.

about twenty miles an hour. They
would inevitably have come together
had it not been for the presence OF
mind of Towerman Mooney, an old
conductor, who threw the switch, de-
railing the slower train, and undoubt-

SETH Low FAvoRs THE PLAN.

Albany. April 22-Governor Roosevelt has re-
ceived from Seth Low a letter ndorsing his atti-
tude the Rapid Transit bill. Relative 10 the re-
ceipt OF this letter. the Governor to-day said:
81 have received letter from Mr. Low about the
rapid-transit measure In which he says that he
would be sorry to rapid transit delayed but
that he would be sorry see a perpetual
franchise given 20 any corporation. He reminded
me OF the fact that when were considering the
proposition to abolish horsecars In New-York
great efforts were made 10 avoid any delay by the
immediate adoption OF the overhead trolley sys-
TEN. and he pointed out how wise II had been TO
accept the delay with the result Of getting the un-
derground. instead OF the overhead. power. Brook
lyn got the change OF streetcar motive power be-
fore New-York City by accepting the overhead
trolley. with the result that II has regretted II
ever since"
The Governor said that he had stated most fully
his position In his message 10 the Legislature and
that he would adhere TO IL.

MAYOR BAcARDI SATISFIED.

Mayor Bacardi of Santiago de Cuba declares
himself wholly satisfied with the result OF his
interview with General Brooke, having received
a promise Of assistance from Havana in carrying
on the public schools which have been opened
in Santiago Province at local expense. Recent
changes in the tax laws have reduced municipal
incomes. and it found impossible to main
tain public instruction in Santiago on the liberal
scale originally contemplated without aid from
the central government. No general school sys-
tenn for the whole island is likely TO be put In
operation before October
The people OF villa Clara have been anx-
iously pettioning General Brooke to have the
capital Of Santa Clara Province re-established
in that pretty inland city. General Bates. after
taking command Of the former Department Of
Santa Clara, fixed his headquarters at Glen
fuegos much to the chagrin of Villa Clara
AS the province is now merged with Matanzas
in one department. with headquarters in the
city Of Matanzas, practically nothing in the way
of prestige is now left for the rival cities to
struggle over.
