Perrine & Gartz 90. Again.

The Perrine & Gartz Company, at
Hoffman Station, are again operating the
large hay press there. This company
was the original owner and starter of the
hay press at Hoffman's, but later sold
out. Since then two other parties have
had control of the press and all did good
business, but the original company have
once more obtained control of the plant
and will operate it. The local Manager
will be Samuel E. Perrine, son of Thos.
E. Perrine, one of the company. The
company will have a depot at Newark,
N. j., in charge of Mr.. Louis Gartz,
brother of one of the company. Mr.. S.
E. Perrine is a young man, who has re.
ceived a thorough Commercial education
at business college and will no doubt
demonstrate his ability to conduct the
local end of the business with credit to
himself and the company. His many
friends wish him well.

Sergeant Robert Scarlett.

The old acquaintances of Rob. Scarlett's
boyhood were considerably surprised last
week, when Sergeant Robert Scarlett, of
Uncle Sans Regular Artillery, marched
into town. In fact he nearly knocked
them all out without unlimbering gun.
When Rob started ten years ago for the
wild and woolly West good many
thought he would make an ideal Govt boy,
but when he came back last week as
Sergeant Scarett and deacon of church
it was surprise party for the boys.
But so it is-Rob had the right mettle in
him and when, in three years ago, lie
Joined the U. s. Regular Artillery he
did wisely. In three years he won his
sergeant's stripes and now he has been
mustered out. He spent several days at
the home of Mr. l. s. Dawson, with his
mother and sisters and on Saturday start
ed for Roseville, Ohio. Next he will
join his brother, Will Scarlett, in Wyom-
ing, and together they will buy cattle
ranch and raise cattle. Will has been i'll
with the mountain typhoid lately but is
recovering. He is quite robust now.

Nearly Drowned.

On Friday afternoon of last week the
resident of lower Jamesburg were nor
rified by the cries of Willie Wilson. aged
eight years, who cried out that Harry
Hye aged eleveny ears. had fallen in the
pond and was drowned. The child's
mother fell to screaming for help and
Will Quackenbush, clerk of the Home
supply Co., jumped from his WACO and
ran to the water. Young Wilson point
ed out the spot where Hye had gone
down and Quckenbush went in with his
clothes all ou. The water was nearly
over his head and he began feeling the
bottom with his feet He found the body
at once, and went under after it. The boy
was black in the face and unconscious,
but Quackenbush and others got the water
out of him, while others got doctor.
Both allopaths were out town and DIR.
Shinn, our new homeopath, had chance
to show his skill. For an hour or two it
was hard fight for the doctor, but
gradually respiration was induced and
the heart began to beat stronger, and the
boy fiickered back TO life. 1t was close
call. The lad has swooning spells and it
was during one of these that he fell into
the water. Hye and the Wilson boy had
been fishing on the sheet-piling, which
extends from the ice-house into the
water for about so feet, and was overtaken
by one of his spells. Quackenbush's
promptness in getting the body undoubt-
edly saved the boys life and the gallant
rescuer is hero at present. The Hye
boy is recovering although weak from
the shock.

WAR is wide-reaching in its effects
Even the 1ongshoremen of Bos ton are
suffering by. reason of the war in South
Africa. There has been a deplorable
falling off in the amount of la Dor req uir-
ed to be performed and corresponding
contraction in wages. Ready money
is harder and harder for the labor
ers about the wharves to command and

ton service by the trans-Atlan COM
panies which have been making char
ter contracts with the British govern
ment means that q crew of 'longshore-
men is deprived of regular employment.
At first, about the time of the outbreak
of hos Utilities, when the admiralty took
a vessel or two out of commerce in or
der to ship soldiers, supplies, mules
and munitions to Africa, little atten-
ton was paid to the matter, and it was
not foreseen that local lsborers were
going to suffer hard times on account
of q war on the other side of the world.
But, according to recent dispatch,
the war has now been brought home to
the hundreds of men in Boston whose
chances of earning livelihood have
been almost completely cut off by it

A NEW ORLEANS architect predicts
that within the next fifty years the
people of every southern city will do
most of their sleeping by day. The
Transformation will be effected by
cheap lights. Darkness, he claims, is
one of the forces of nature against
which civilization wages war. 1t faci-
litates crime, it impedes travel, it puts
arbitrary limits on human exertion.
The time is coming when darkness
will be thoroughly conquered, and the
great cities flooded from end to end
with an effulgence that will make
every vocation of life as easy and as
practicable at one hour as another. FL
Pasoans would be delighted to have
the first installment of that promised
effulgence sent on by the next train.
Our electric lighting service is not
waging a very victorious war against
darkness.

THE meaning of the word "club''
was explained in two ways by a Balti-
MORGAN at the recent annual meeting
of the Phoenix club in Baltimore. He
talked about clubs in general, and the
way in which women looked upon them
in particular. and then drew witty
picture of what the word = L q B
meant. &C." he said, stood for cards,
in the average won ans mind, 81"
stood for lunch con, including eatables
aud drinksbles, gu" stood for up
roar and "B'' stood for ball. BE
proceeded to explain what a club real
ly meant to man, and, deftly trans
forming the meaning of the club as
generally inferred, concluded by say
ing that &c" really stood for culture,
hat the 81" really stood for literature,
that the ''U'' stood for unity, and
that the 'B" stood for brotherhood.

FOUR THINGS.

There are four things that the cham.
Der of commerce ought to take up a,
once, and hammer away at until some
thing is really accomplished.
One is the readjustmept of Ell Paso's
jobbing rates. 1t has been we'll re-
cognized as a fact for g. long time tina,
owing to the inability of Ell Psso's
business men to get together and stay
together, the railroads have taken
advantage of US in the matter of out
going freight rates. Ell Psso must
control the jobbing trade in her terri
tory, and she will if the chamber OF
commerce works with q will.
Another and this m natter, 30 far as
we know, has not before been brought
up-is the better arrangement of our
mail facilities with tributary points.
Every business man recognizes the nee
essity of close mail connections with
points with which he desires to do bust
ness. Yet with great many of these
places the mail connections are so
loose that days are lostin the transmits
sion of letters. Contrary to the COM
mon belief, there is a fair chance of
having these conditions improved if
our chamber of commerce will go at
the question in the right spirit. The
trouble is mainly with branch lines,
and can be sdjust ted without great diff
fculty.
The third, aud very important one,
too, is the establishment here under
the auspices of the chamber of COM
nerce of a permanent mining expo
sition. The HERALD has before ex-
planned its plan in detail, and will con-
tinue to agitate this very necessary
establishments.
Fourth. union depot is an absolute
necessity in Ell Paso. The Texas and
Pacific reservation Is the best place |
'or 1t. Let the chamber of commerce |
Keep this matter before the people and |
;he railroads and see what can be |
lone.
There is work before us, hard work,
Ind uphill pulling.
Let US pull together.

ADvICES from st. Petersburg indi-
cate that a considerable modification
OF the imperial Russian law affecting
the use of typewriters in that country
is about to take place. Hitherto the
use of this machine has been restricted
to such individuals as could obtain spe-
cial permission, as it was feared that
the general use of the machine would
greatly facilitate the machinations of
the nihilistic element. Foreign bust
ness houses were almost the only ones
making a liberal use of the type
writer. OF late years, however, Rus
sian industry and commerce have ex-
tended at such rapid rate and the
educated element available for the
purpose of correspondence ia relative

it back, and guarantees of a clean
sheet made to induce US to take hold

AN IMPORTANT WORK.

The chamber of commerce should b.
ity. 1t ought not to be necessary to q
any further than its secretary for all
the historical material in figures that
can be found in the city. But with very
new chamber of commerce and a sec
rotary not yet even appointed, Ell Pase
people and others are at a disadvan.
tage in this respect.
The HERALD has just bad this mat
ter brought home quite unexpectedly.
In the preparation of its ''Great South
west 1900 Souvenir Edition. upon
which number of experienced and well
known writers have been eng aged, 1t
has become necessary to prepare sew
eral elaborate stats cal tables. run
ming IN some cases back to the begin
ming of Ell Paso as city. This has in
volved an amount OfIlabor out of all pro-
portion to the apparent results.
1t was found, in fact, that there ex-
listed here no sets of record books that
would convey fully the information
sought concerning trade, industry.
mining development, and similar in
terests. Every bit OF Information has
accordingly been secured at first hand,
at great labor, and naturally with
scant satisfaction.
OF course, the.work the HERALD is
doing on this edition will count in the
long run to Its great credit, but how
much easier it would have been, and in
some respects how much more sstisfac-
tory, If the secretary of the chamber of
commerce had been able to refer to his
files and records, and to give us all the
Inf ormation we might need, and much
more than we could'use.
Ole particular interest concerning
which 1t is at present impossible to
secure any comprehensive Information
whatever is the mining industry, in
its relation to Ell Paso. How many
producing mines are there within
three hundred miles of this city?
The question can only be
answered by an estimate, and pretty
wild one at. that. To what extent are
these mines dependent on Ell Paso?
How far does Ell Paso con troll their
product and handle it? To what ex-
tent Is Ell Paso capital engaged in de-
veloping the industry? All these ques-
tions are food for speculation, but it is
well nigh impossible to get any &C
ourate information on the subjects.
With well organized and perma-
nent chamber of commerce all these
matters would be part of the ar
chives. Irquirers after detailed in
formation could refer to carefully in
dexed files of clippings and statistics.
reports and estimates, from which they
could draw fairly accurate conclusions.
Matters of the sort would be kept
closely up to date, and would be made
readily accessible.
Let us hope that this new movement
for q chamber of commerce will make |

In the San Francisco Chronicle ap.
pears an admission by an official OF
Wells, Fargo & Co. that "the con tract
of his company with the Southern Pa
cific, the Atchison, Topeka and SAINTS
Fee and the San Joaquin Valley rail-
roads lie of such q character as to make
1t absolutely impossible for any COM
pany to enter the field as its compe-
titor." In the opinion of the Sacra-
mento Bee this bold admission was
inspired by the prospect of having a
strong rival in the express
business, the company wishing
to impress upon any pros
prospective competitor the strong po-
sition in which the railroads have en-
trenched it. 1.-THE mutual marage-
ment or contract between the railroads
and the company" the Bee asserts, sis
simpl a shrewd scheme to cinch the
