NEW MEXICO MOVING ALONG.

~
(Raton Gazette.)
Men of money in the east have been
nearing of this country since he papers
OF New Mexico began to talk up the
mining interests. All money out
OF the ground in the first place. The
Farmer takes it out in his crops or the
miner digs it out in the form of mineral.
n the owner of money naturally turns
to its source. The wealth in the noun
tains of New Mexico can never be ex-
hausted nor ca. it be destroyed by pan
les or political changes. The age of
prospecting is rapidly passing, and the
era OF golden realization is close at
hand.
Any one who has carefully read the
local papers must be convinced that
New Mexico is making rapid progress
IN all departments of industrial activ-
MY. The mining industry shows re-
fnarkable advances, while farming.
Spock growing and numbering are un-
usually act1v and satisfactory. No part
Oh the United States is making more
progress than New Mexico.

ADJUSTMENTS.

In the second act OF 1.-THE Hon. John
Grigsby." the new play written for Sol
Smith Russell by Charles Klein. which
| Is to-nlght's attraction at the Opera
| House, there Is scene which shows
that there was fifty years ago much
the same sort OF political controversies
| that are supposed to be peculiar to this
| day, when boss rule Is so much de-
veloped. Sol Smith Russell appears as
an upright judge, who IS trying to do
| his duty to his state. and whom the
| political leaders are threatening with
financial and political ruin II he does
not agree to declare constitutional 4
law which they are about to pass. The
politics of fifty years ago were greater
| politics than those of the last decade,
and both the author, Mr.. Klein, and the
| actor, Mr.. RUSSELL have given what
they call a light comedy strength
! that ought to make II lasting Amerl-
| can play.
The slavery question Is brought In In
| such way as to show what the feeling
was in those western states when the
| sentiment was about evenly divided. II
is said Mr.. Russells part Is different
| from anything else he has ever played.
being more dramatic. and having more
| elements Of the heroic. John Grlgsby
IS n widower. who has undertaken the
case OF good-looking young woman.
! who has incurred the displcnsure Of in
| ilucntial people Of the town by educat-
| ing young negroes, and when 1t Is found
that Grigsby w!ll not play into the
| hands OF the political bosses, they re-
vengc themselves on him by threaten
| ing to have her arrested for L violation
| on nm old Blue law. Grlgsby finds him
self In the predicament OF either having
the woman he loves thrown into prison
| or giving up the principles which lie
| firmly believes will save Illinois from
being n slave state. It is fine stun
tion, and the author has written It with
so much delicacy and so much strength
| that. though 1t is intensely dramatic,
| 1t never suggests melodrama. Mr.. Rus
sells methods OF acting have never had
n finer outlet. and he looks forward to
| seeing the character of 1.-THE Hon. John
Grigsby" take permanent place in the
| gallery Of stage portraits.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Tho Recent Adverse Legislation by
tho West Virginia Legislature has
Brought About the Movement.
Committees Appointed to Prepare u
Plan Of Organization = Another
Meeting Mt Pittsburgh on May "3. :

Some time ago It was stated that the
fire insurance men of West Virginia
would likely take action relative to the
pernicious valued policy act passed by
the legislature at its recent session.
Tuesday afternoon, at the chamber OF
commerce, meeting Of some forty or
fifty insurance men was held for the
purpose OF taking the preliminary steps
toward forming state organization.
The adverse legislation in this state Is
said TO be the moving cause OF the for
nation OF the organization.
The meeting was held in the rooms or
the chamber OF commerce yesterday
morning, being called to order at 10
o'clock. An afternoon session was held.
too. The several Wheeling companies
were represented by their officers, and
the many American and foreign COM
panies doing business In West Virginia
were nearly represented by general
office officials.
Mr.. Fldelius Ricster, secretary OF the
German Fire Insurance Company, OF
Wheeling, acted us chairman, and Mr..
A. G. Sanderman. Of Columbus, an off,
cial Of the Aetna. of Hartford. Conn,
was chosen secretary.

izatlon. and the chair appointed several
committees which will perfect the plans
for the organization and report at an
other meeting which Is to be held In
Pittsburgh, May %. These committees
will report on bylaws and constitution.
and In the meantime every company
doing business In this state will be soli-
cited to Join the association, the name
Of which Is not yet determined.
1t seems odd that meeting to con-
cfude the organization would be held in
Pittsburgh, and the explanation given
by Chairman Rlester Is that the forty
or more visiting insurance men who at
tended yesterdays meeting here found
1t difficult to secure hotel accommoda-
tons. This scarcity Of hotel room Is
largely accounted for by the closing
down Of the Mcclure. The other hotels
are turning away people nightly.

Gould to get it. Here came Brice's
strategy. He told Gould that II he
would sit silent and not contradict,
neither affirm nor deny any newspaper
article to the effect that he was going
to buy the Nickel Plate, and after this
clamlike silence had continued for q
week, il he would then slowly ride over
the Nickel Plate in an observation ca,
Vanderbilt would buy the road and
he would give Gould $50O,OOO.
Gould didn't care for the $500,000,
but he was a jocose speculator, and 1t
struck him that the whole thing would
be majestic joke on Vanderbilt. And
that was the story of it. The papers
came out and said Gould was going to
buy the Nickel Plate. Gould, when
asked, kept mum and looked wise. At
the end of week he meandered, snail
like over the Nickel Plate, smoking
cigars from the rear end OF an OBJ
servation car and had all the air Of
man who was looking at piece OF
property. Stories were wired about
Gould's trip from every water tank and
way station along the line, and before
Gould had reached Chicago Vanderbilt,
in a fit of Mysteries, wired Brice that
he would take the Nickel Plate. Van
derbilt took the Nickel Plate and Brice
was saved.
