ELECTION ONLY
Stands In the Way, and After
the Result Is Known. If
Favorable, the Road
Will Extend.

w H. Godair, a well-known bank
er and cattleman of Roswell, n. NJ,
has been spending several days at the
Pierson.
The Pecos Valley people have COM
pleted all plans for the FL Paso extern
sion" he said to a Herald reporter.
''and are now only waiting for the
election to decide definitely what
they will do. 1t has been the pur-
pose of the company to extend its road
to this city since the Haldermans took
hold of it but like all railroad COM
panies they are afraid to ask for
money to carry out their plans until
the policy of the next administration
is definitely known. If Mckinley is
reelected the road will begin con-
struction at an early date. but if Bry-
an should be elected it is a question
when anything will be done
Mr.. Goodair says that the company
arrangements made for the early ship
ment of material when it is known
what will be done. They are anxious
to get into this territory as soon as
possible and will lose no time in doing
so if the policy of the administration
is not changed by the election of
Bryan.
He does not think that the Pecos
Valley will be absorbed by any of the
larger roads but viii be an independ-
ent line.
The line into Ell Paso will be a
great benefit to the city" continued
Mr. Godair. 1T will traverse some fine
country between here and Roswell
and at that point will get into the
finest section of the territory. Roswell
is prosperous city and the country
around it is more prosperous still. We
have solved the irrigation question
and in the future that will be the
leading agricultural section of New
Mexico. FL Paso will be our nearest
supply point and in Roswell this city
will have a valuable feeder

He will arrive in Toledo early tomor-

Ohio.
The candidate is we'll pleased with
the size of his audience here last night

However the small towns of Michigan

The republicans laugh at the claims

SAME OLD GAME
Played With Success, But the
Gentleman Was Not
Quite Slick
Enough

He registered at the Orndorff as A.
N. Garston. of Chicago. He came to
Ell Paso about two weeks ago with
his wife and represented himself to be
travelling freight and passenger agent
of the Illinois Central railroad with
headquarters in Chicago.
The officers are looking for him now
with writs of arrest charging him with.
cashing worthless checks.
He stated at the hotel that he had
been recently married and was tour
ing the country on his bridal tour
and intended to spend the winter in Ell
Paso. His address was good and his
wife was pretty blond of about twen-
ty years. Garston appeared to have
plenty of money and dressed in ele-
CANT style.
Nothing was suspected until Tues
day when he is said to have asked
Harry Turner to cash a check for him
Harry suspected that something was
wrong and gave some excuse, refus-
ing to cash the check. He then tried
Mr.. Spellicy, the Southern Pacific pass
enger agent. and again failed. Later
he called on Mr.. Morrison. ticket
agent for the Santa Fe, and introduc-
ing himself as an agent OF the Illinois
Central, tried to cash the same check
Mr.. Morrison caught on and refused
and finally had to be very plain with
his caller to get rid of him.
Garston was not to be outdone. SO
he called on B. F. Darbyshire at the
Texas & Pacific Offices and made the
same talk. Mr.. Darbyshire was about
to cash the check when Mr.. Costello
suspected something and whispered to,
Mr.. Darbyshire to pass him up. which
he did.
In the mean time Garston had spent
an hour with Agent Kerr at the Santa
Fe depot but met with the same result
there
He finally found his mark. however.
when he met ST Ryan. who cashed two,
checks for him, one on a Chicago bank
and the other on the First National of
this witty. Both checks were for s25.
From ST Ryan's Garston went to the
Red Light saloon on Utah street and
found another mark Mr.. Videll the
proprietor, cashed another check on
Chicago for S25.
Yesterday morning the First Nation
al banN notified 81 Ryan that Garsters
had no money in the bank and Mr..
Ryan Immediately ordered his arrest.
Chief Lockhart met Garston on the
street and went with him to Ryan's
place. He acknowledged that he had
no money but said he would make il
good if he would give him until 3
O'Clock. Ryan agreed and Garston has
not been seen since
Just after lunch yesterday some one
called Mrs. Garston over the phone
at the Orndorff and after talking for
few minutes she changed her gown
and went out and has not yet return

The officers have searched Juarez
and found no trace of him and con-
fidently expect to locate him in Ell
Paso. as he has had no chance to get
away. Garston has an annual pass
from the Pullman company. which
indicates that he has been a man of
position.

An Austrian invention of recent oc-
eurrenee is the conversion of bog peat
into paper. carpet and even food for
pigs. The inventor Karl zschoerner,
has paid attention to peat for years,
and after prolonged experiments has
produced not only variety Of grades
of paper, but textures, which for
eheapnees= can scarcely be equaled by
any modern products. A handful of
dried peat looks like remnants Of to-
baeeo clippings and would hardly i'm
press an observer as being of CONNER
eiaI consequence, but after being put
through the inventors process the
MAJ. becomes fbrous and can be
treated like any other textile material.
A large plant is being operated in Aus
ria for manufacturing from peat.
Samples of these products present the
appearance of cloths and carpets of the

T1iiterate Russfan Peasanta.

The iIliteracy of Russia exceeds that
of any other country claiming to have
a civilized government. The Humani-
tartan states that in 10000 villages of
the vast empire there is not a school.
and it is estimated that not 20 per
cent of the population of the empire
has acquired even the rudIments of
common school education 1t has been
figured out that if the ear would dis
band 100000 men of his immense army
he would thereby save money enough
to provide a school for each of these
villages. It is not surprising that the
car should desire to reach some ar
rangements with the other nations
which would permit him to partially

New Use for Aluminium.

With pencil Of aluminium indellble
characters can be written or drawn on
glass or porcelain, aud when treated
with hydfoeh1orie acid. the surface
covered by the characters becomes
etched. When the characters are not
etched, but simply FURNISHED, they ex-
aetly resemble inlaid silver. This
property of aluminium was recently
discovered by Mr. Charles Margot of
Geneva. Switzerland. It is fndispensa-
BILE first to remove every trace of
grease from the surface to be orna-
mented by polishing with chalk, else
the aluminium will net take hold.
Since the effect is only produced on
substances containing siIicic acid, it
has been suggested that an aluminium
pencil would be an unerring deteetor
of false diamonds. Magnesium, cad
