CUBA'S AUGEAN STABLE.
A D. & r. G.. Railroad Man Visits the Gu
ban Capital, Where He Finds It Neces-
sary to Hold His Nose,

Travelling Auditor Austin, of the d. &
kept his eyes open and his nose closed
as to conditions and probabilities. Mr..
Austin says that people in this country
have no adequate idea of the utter filth
been for 300 years without any sewage
system, and which has come to be a
veritable plague spot, almost as much
SO as one of the filthier Italian or Ash
attic cities. The wonder is that under
past conditions plaques have not been
generated in Havana that would have
swept the entire southern part of the
United States, most of Mexico and the
northern parts of South America with
devastating effects. The harbor is so
indescribably nasty that ship captains
dislike very much to cast anchor there,
as when an anchor is pulled up it is so
covered with the vile mud reeking with
disease germs that c%ontagion is always
feared on shipboard, and the mud is

possible. The entire ground on which
the city is built is more thar saturated
with the accumulated filth of three CEN
turtles, and decencies hat in this coun-
try are regarded as incumbent on ev-
erybody, whether they are intelligent or
not, are utterly disregarded in Havan \
even by the higher classes. Street cor
ner conveniences that in the United
and carefully looked after, have no ur-
foreground connections at all in Havana
as the roadways for some distance
around attest in an unmistakable IMAM
ner. The city is now being cleaned I'M
der the supervision of the United States
army authorities, and a sewa: system
will be built.
Mr.. Austin is led to believe that a new
Havana will be built, not far from the
old town, as the country there is adj
mirably adapted for such a scheme, and
he believes that some big syndicate
with immense capital will take adtan-
age OF the SITUATION ere long ana DQllu
a modern city on the American plan,
with all the modern improvements. and
use it as a winter resort. In :act, that
part of the country is ideal in this re-
spect, and there are big fortunes wait
ing for parties with capital who will
employ it in this way. There has been
considerable talk about cutting a new
channel from the land-locked harbor to
the ocean through the rocky ledge to
the west, but it is doubted whether this
would accomplish the object sought for,
and it would be a very expensive I'M
dertaking. Havana people are kicking
against the newly inaugurated sanitary
system, but they must submit, and
make the best of it.

NEW MEXICO RAILWAY BUILDING.
Good Prospects of the New Mexico Central
Gut Off Being Built by the
Santa Fe.

New Mexico was third last year of
al the states and territories in the rec
ord of railway building" remarked a
prominent citizen yesterday to a New
Mexican representative. Nov that is
saying a good deal, and reflects mark
ed credit on the territory. And the
building Is by no means ended; in fact,
it is only begun. The next move on the
territorial chess board will be the
much-talked-of cutoff by the Santa Fee
between a point 40 or so miles north of
Roswell on the Pecos Valley extension.
direct to Isleta Junction, 10 miles south
of Albuquerque, about 200 miles, thus
shifting the line of transcontinental
west of Newton, Kan, Trinidad and
Las Vegas, to the line running south
from Newton via Wichita, to Amarillo,
the Roswell extension, direct to Isleta,
and thence west over the Santa Fe Pa
ciic. This will save some $50 miles, and
the climbs over Ration and Glorieta
ranges, leaving the road between New

que for local traffic. Things are work.
ing hat way, and rapidly, too; and
when realized, the Southern Pacific will
find the Santa Fe harder to compete
with than ever, independent of the San
Angelo, Tex, connections, which will
give the Santa Fe traffic connection be-
tween the Gulf of Mexico and the Pa
cifc coast. Yes, the outlook for New
Mexico railway developments this year
Is promising"

MAKE A TEST OF STUART'S DYS.
PEPsIA TABLETS.

No trouble is more COMMON or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia.
People having it think their nerves are
to blame and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicines. The
real seat of the mischief is lost sight of.
The stomach is the organ to be looked
after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not in the stomach so much
as in nearly every organ. In some
cases the heart palpitates and is ir-
regular; in others the kidneys are af-
fected; in others the bowels are consti-
pated, with-headaches; still others are

U. s. weather bureau forecast for New
Mexico: Fair and colder tonight; fair
weather.

fragmentary shape, and the number OF
cases is diminishing.
Active cleaning out of cutters has be-
gun with the first indications of warm
er, and more pleasant weather.
In Albuquerque yesterday a warrant
citizen charging him with al assault
upon his wife. The latest reports were
that he had not been ap%prehended.
1t is, interesting to note that while
Santa Fe is enjoying balmy weather, it
is storming heavily in other and less
favored sections of the country. Even
Denver is onlo emerging from the teeth
of a blizzard.
There is a rumor about town that the
Office Of the collector of internal revenue
is to be moved to some other place.
There is no truth in the report, nor has
there ever been any grounds for it. Col
lector Morrison will keep his office and
force of clerks and deputies in Santa Fe.
Donald McRae, who has been a resi-
dent of San Pedro and Albuquerque for
some years past, engaging in mining in
the San Pedro district, died in Las Cru
ces last Saturday from smallpox, and
the burial took place the same day.
Yesterday the thermometer at the local
weather bureau registered as follows:
Maximum temperature, 4S degrees, at
$3.50 p. M; minimum, 26 degrees, at $40
a. m. mean temperature for the "a hours
was 81 degrees; mean daily relative

The audience was highly pleased with
the performance from start to finish, as
it was certainly the best that has been
given in the city for a long time. The
music'was of the best'and the specialties
were up-to-date in every particular.

Growing Las Vegas.

Receiver e. f. Hobart, of the land
office, returned last night from a trip to
Las Vegas, where he sold 100 acres of
land on the Mora road, north OF the
city, to Mark DERRICK, for $l 600. The
purchaser will build a house on the
property, and otherwise improve it.
General Hobart was much pleased with
the general appearance of growth and
thrift at Las Vegas, as the city is devel-
oping rapidly, people are moving in
from the eastern states, and it will not
be long before Las Vegas is one of the
most important cities in the southwest.
General Hobart learned while away,
that the proposed narrow gauge from
Las Vegas to Mora and Taos was a go.
and active work would begin early in
the spring.

Cheapenins Pork Production.

Trials at the Oklahoma station tend
to confirm the conclusions announced
from two or three southern stations
that planting peanuts, sweet potatoes,
cowpeas IF soy beans and allowing
pigs to harvest the crop will be found
a profitable practice. Peanuts, cowpeas
and soy beans are highly nutritious,
well adapted for making muscle as
we'll as fat. The sweet potato is less
valuable pound for pound, but a good
yield can be secured at small cost. Pigs
can harvest either crop more cheaply
than can man. There is possible dan
ger from early frost in the case Of
sweet potatoes. With cowpeas it seems
best to urn the pigs in the lot before
the peas are fully ripe. Feeding some
grain in connection with either Of these
solf harvested crops usually will in
crease the profit. The great value Of
wheat as pasturage for pigs is recog-
nized by many. Some have found good
results from pasturing early sown oats.
The best summer pig pasture for pigs
in Oklahoma is alfalfa. Where this
is not available sorghum, thickly sown,
will be found desirable. The fairly
matured sorghum stalks make excel
lent hog food in the fall. They will be
eaten somewhat readily even in win.

A Casselton dispatch says of the two
young men who were injured there:
Two young men, Chas. and Frank
Goosey, were riding on the trucks; they
swung out from under the train all
right, but did not notice the platform of
the depot, and that threw them back
under the train. Frank had his left arm
cut off near the shoulder, and his skull
was badly fractured, and there were
other bruises as we'll. Chas. had his
skull fractured and his left knee badly
lacerated. These boys we're taken to
the hospital and their wounds cared for
by DIR. Shanks, assisted by Drs. Fish
and Rowe. These boys were not hobos,
and this was their first experience in
riding under a freight train. Their
father is a we'll to do farmer at Augusta,
Wis, and he and their mother arrived
from the east this morning, together
with a brother from Eau Claire. Frank
is not expected to live owing to the
shock to his system. Charles will prob
ably recover. Their family have much
sympathy.

He told me also that at Manila lie

He says he believes in fighting the
Germans with their own weapons.
