A Big SHEEP DEAL.
Henry M, Porter Sold Guadalupe County
Ranch.

Through a direct deal with the pur-
chaser, Henry M. Porter, of this city,
yesterday sold a portion of his vast
! holdings of sheep and sheep grazing
lands in New Mexico. Mr.. Porter an
nounced last evening that he had been
anxious to dispose of the property for
some time, as the industry had grown
distasteful to him. He will make invest
ments in Colorado enterprises, and has
no idea of leaving the state.
The sale consummated includes an
immense ranch in Guadalupe county,
water rights controlling ZOO, 600 acres of
! grazing land, 1000 ewes and $1,000
lambs. Mr.. Porter declined to make
known any of the details of the sale, or
the name of the purchaser, but the lat
ter is said to be the Platte Valley Sheep
Company, of Wyoming. The price paid
is above $50, 900, as Mr.. Porter is known
months ago.
1t is understood hat the same pur-
chaser has secured an option on another
valuable ranch belonging to Mr.. Porter,
on the Trinchera. Mr.. Porter admitted
that he vas DESTROYS of disposing of all
his sheep holdings, but said that the
deals were in a state wherein publicity
would interfere. The property along
the Trinchera contains over 20, 900 sheep
and quite a number of cattle. The
amount of money involved in the latter
transaction is greater than the one
closed with the Platte Valley company
yesterday, and will probably bring the
total for the two sales up to $175, OOO.-

With all, is it worth living this life,
With its toll, its trouble and strife;
With treatment to cut like a knife;
With passions to always subdue;
With sorrows too many, to you:
With it's joys to many too few;
With it's rich to legally steal;
With its poor to starve for a meal:
With it's heart to heed no appeal;
With it's ills to bear and contend;
With mysteries to not comprehend;
With it's all, after all, to the end.

IF THE ROSE COULD ONLY SPEAK.

Within the rose | found a trembling tear
Close curtained in a gloom of crimson night
BY tender petals from the outer light.
! pAucked the flower and held it to my ear,
And thought within its fervid breast to hear
A smothered heart beat throbbing soft and
low.
l heard its busy lifeblood gently flow,
Now far away and now SO strangely near.
All, thought l, il these silent lips of flame
Gould be unsealed and fling into the air
Their woe, their passion, and in speech pro
claim
Their warm intoxication of despair,
Then would 1 give the rose into thy hand,
Thou could's its voice, beloved, not withstand.

the floor was crowded, they had little
room for free movement, and their stiff
ness and solemnity hay have been due
to their efforts to keep out of one an
others way. AT the end of the waltz
there was another grand walll-around,
after which the guitar the kettle drum,
the gourd rattle and the scratch-gourd
struck up the queer, baIbaric music of
the Cuban "Ganzon"-a round dance
something like waltz, but with great
er irregularity of movement and with
peculiar, Voluptuous sWaying Of the
body suggestive of the ''hoochee-coo-
che and other Oriental dances of the
Midway Plaisance. AS sometimes exc
euted, this Cuban damon" is immOd-
est, not to say indecent, and at balls
in the larger Cuban towns it is often
danced in way that would be start
ling, If not shocking, to the most hard
ened frequenter of the annual French
balls in New York; but in Baracoa l
saw nothing about it that was particu-
larly Objectionable. 1t seemed to be
nothing more than an awkward, ire
gular two-step waltz to the accompani-
ment of extremely wild and peculiar
music. Both in the music and in the
movements of the damon" it is easy
to trace the influence that the negro in
Cuba has had over the Spaniard. The
music especially, with its queer, brok-
en- time, the sharp, staccato click of its
gourd rattle, the throbbing of its deep
toned guitar and the rolling, muff1ed,
intermittent thunder of it's drum, is as
Enthusiastically African as anything to
be heard on the upper Nile or in a jun
gle on the banks of the Congo. Why
the damon" should be preferred to
the waltz, as it everywhere is in Cuba,
I do not know, unless it be for the rea-
son that the music is more wild and
passionate, and the dance itself more
in harmony with the ardent, sensual
nature of the haf-Spanish, half-negro
population.
After having satisfied my curiosity, I
left the house of the priest about IL
o'clock and went home, but dancing
continued there all the afternoon and
evening, and the last sounds | heard
before / went to sleep that night were
the peculiar click of the scratch gourd
and the faint distant rumble of the
drum.-George KEENAN, in The outlook.
