HIS THRIFT GAVE HIM AWAY
The Terrible Scraps Of Paper Upon
Which a Clergyman Wrote.

Habits of thrift are generally COM
meuds BILE, but sometimes they give
cause for amusement without the per-
con practicing them being aware of it.
This was the case recently with we'll
known clergyman, whose church is one
of the most fl ourlshing of its denomi-
nation in the city.
This clergyman receives salary OF
$4,000 year and has in addition a COM
Portable income of his own. He is q
Ii beral giver to many charities, lives
in brown stone house, and apparently
has less reason for economy than the
average citizen: yet he has one habit
perhaps better. one idiosyncrasy-shat
might we'll be taken as an indication of
poverty by those who did not know the
clergyman. With in born Scotch thrift
the minister makes use of the blank
side of the letters he receives when
they are written ION one sid only"
He was asked recently to prepare an
article for magazine. In due time
the manuscript reached the editor,
each page of it written on the back of
an old letter, and 1t was only too evil
dent that he had paid no attention to
whether or not the letters were of q
personal character. The letters fur
nished rather curious commentary on
the sort OF letters a metropolitan
clergyman receives. Among them
we're:
A notice from an insurance company
that his policy had lapsed owing to the
non-payment of Sl56 premium.
A note from the general passenger
agent of a railway refusing his request
that pass from New York to Chicago
be given to poor brother of the min
lister.
An appeal from a poor widow for
money to pay her rent and keep her
from being dispossessed.
A letter from broker who was one
of his congregation advising him to in
vest in a certain stock, as it was Ger
tain to be "a-good thing.'
A criticism of one of his sermons
from one ofthe pillars of the church.
A receipt showing that he had paid
for the license of his dog.-New York

MEXICAN CENTRAL SUED.
Conductor Conway Asks the FEEDER
al Court For $4,000 Damages
For A1leued Personal Injuries.

Yesterday E. Q. Conway, through his
attorneys, Patterson & Buckler, filed
suit in the federal court against the
Mexican Central Rail way company for
s15, 900 damages for alleged personal in
juries.
According to this petition Conway
was employed during December last as
conductor on the Mexican Central
between Dona Cecilia and Cardenas,
Mexico. On the 20th of December
he was making a run between these
points with freight train. On a down
grade the train was derailed and the
plaintiff seriously and permanently in
jure by having three ribs
broken, his spine seriously in
jured and other minor injuries.
He charges that the engineer was
running at a high and reckless speed
on a down grade and that he refused
to check up when sign aled to do so by
the plaintiff. Conway charges that
the engine was out of repair and not fl
for use and that he had reported this
fact to the car repairer at Csrdenas
several times and the latter delayed
the necessary repairs because, so
he said he had not the necessary mate
rial on hand. In this Conway charges
negligence on the part of the com
pany.
The petition closes by citing passages
from the Mexican laws showing that
according TO these he would be en-
sitled to damages in that country.

LOUISVILLE REUNION
United Confederate Veterans To
Meet There May 3Oth To June

The South Carolina veterans will
take to the Confeoe' ate Reunion at
Louisville May 30-June 3, the famous
| flag of the Palmetto regiment. The
| flag probably has a more interesting
history than any flag in the country.
The flag WAS presented to the South
Carolina regiment by Gen. Scott at
lieu of the tattered banner which had
been presented to the regiment by the
ladies of Charleston in 1876. The flag
was carried through the entire war
from Vera Cruz and all through the
valley. It was the third, If not the Sec
ond, flag planted on the walls of Cha
pultepec. The flag was placed above
person on September Is, 1917. 1t was
the first flag planted on the walls of
the City of Mexico, having been haul
ed up by the South Carolinians three
hours before any other division enter
ed the city.
The historic flag was loaned to the
Second South Carolina regiment of
the late war, and carried to Cuba. 1t
was hoisted over Moro Castle. The
United States that was carried in the
two foreign wars that the United States
has engaged In, and it is the
only flag that has been
hoisted over the capitols of the two
countries with which the United States
went to war. It was brought back
from Havana in q powder sack, and re-
turned to the Palmetto regiment sur
vivOrs.
The original flag of the regiment
was stolen by Sherman's regiment
when It passed through Chester, s. G
The original flag was pierced with
twenty-seven balls, the staff was shot
down twice, one officer was killed
under it, one officer mortally wounded,
and three were severely wounded.

THE OLD
RACE TRACK
Another Project On Foot To
Utilize The Park
A TRAINING STABLE
May Be Established There With
Race Meets Given Later On.

Another effort is about to be made to
do something with the old race track
| at Washington park. Several parties
in the city have interested themselves
in the project of esta blishing q train
ing stable there and have secured the
services of James Sanford, a trainer
from Los Angeles, California, to take
charge.
Mr.. Sanford Is now in the city look
ing over the ground and said this
morning to HERALD reporter that he
believed the project could be made q
success. He said he had a number of
horses promised him by Ell Paso parties
and he also thought it likely that he
would be able to bring two from Albu-
querque.
1.-The track can be made good one ii
properly kept up" said Mr.. Sanford
this morning. AT present it is in
poor condition and needs repairs, but
this can be attended to. The stalls and
fences are in bad shape and new ones
are needed"
Joseph Jones. of this city, an engln-
eer on the T. & p, is the owner OF q
4-year-old which he is desirous of hav-
ing trained and will place in the care
of Mr.. Sanford if the latter takes
charge of the track.
Mr.. Jones Ia anxious to have the
track made q success. A number OF
other horse lovers in the city are said
to be Interested. among them AL Mast,
r. B. Stevens and John Tucker.
The first object of the promoters will
be the establishment of the training
stable, though matinees and race
meets may be given later on if all goes
we'll. They will ask the council for
the track shortly If their plans do not
miscarry.
So many attempts to do something
with Washing ton park have been made
and failed that the public may be in
cliped to be skeptical of anything con.
nected with it, but few however would
regret seeing it put to some good use
as at present it Is of no benefit to any
one.
The committee on public improve
ments of the chamber of commerce. has
been considering the advisability of
taking some steps to make it of some
use to the city but If the present
scheme amounts to anything it ia like
ly that an understanding can be ar
rived at.

False Alarm.

The fire department was called out
yesterday evening about 7o'clock to
extinRuish an alleged conflagration at
the Mesa school. On arrival it was
discovered that the only fire there was
where it ought to be in the stove, but
the jsnitOr had left the door open and
some one seeing the glow imagined the
building to be on fire.

THE JUAREZ FIRE
Locking the Door After the Horse Is
Stolen

Stolen
The Mexican suspected of having
set fire to the depot in an effort to
cover up robbery is still at large. So
far as can be learned nothing has been
seen of him since, although the officers
both in Ell Paso and Jua-ez are on the
lookout for him. He left wife and
family in Juarez when he skipped out
and hence it Is regarded as certain that
he will soon return whenever he
thinks the matter has been quieted
down sufficiently.
The police of Juarez and the Judge
of letters are meanwhile investigating
and hope to be able to get evidence
ENOUGH to punish him whenever he
ventures to return.
AS usual in such Clses now that the
mischief is done precautions are bein e
taken and the company clocks the door
after the horse is stolen"
Hitherto the company has kept only
one Waterman in the yard to protect all
their property at night which was scat
tered over considerable territory. No
night force is kept at work either atth e
depot or yard. Now an extra watchman
has been put on AT the depot to see
that the wooden shack in temporary
use is not burned up or robbed too.

An Unfortunate situation.

by a vote Of 5 to 4, the Board OF
Regents Of the University has decided
TO retain Dr. Raymond at the head OF
The University. This is most un-
fortunate settlement Of this unfortg-
nate trouble, and one that cannot fail
to do much injury TO the University.
As the regents have refused to protect
the taxpayers OF the State against the
extravaganza, the faddishness, the
headstrongness and nauseating igo-
tism OF Raymond, the only thing to
do is TO look TO the Legislature for
protection. 1t is the duty Of the vot-
ers OF every county in the State to ex-
act pledges from their candidates for
the Legislature to lock the door Of the
Treasury against the wasteful raids OF
Raymond For the next six months
an unceasing warfare will ensue which
will do much to impair the standing
Of the University but il the people
cannot get relief and protection in
any other way, it will have to come
