SENSATIONS OF A BALL00NIST.

This Is how the famous French aero
naut Michel Corday describes the sensa-
tions of the balloonist:
Ascent, descent, progress-it all goes
on easily and imperceptibly. The regis
tering barometer and thermometer; the
pieces of cigar paper thrown overheard
and nuttering about; the changing geo.
graphic picture OF the surface of the
earth: those are the only signs of move
ment In the gondola absolute silence
reigns. and the higher you ascend the
more eager grows the desire to mount
higher and yet higher"

an infallible cure for nervous diseases, a
treatment, we suppose. based on homeo-
pathic principles.

NEW MExICo'S COAL MINES
Great Wealth Awaits the Develop
Inc OF These Deposits.

Immense deposits of coal. both an
thracite and bituminous. abound in
New Mexico. These only await the
coming of capital to yield up fortunes
and il is peculiar that they have not
been developed more extensively than
they have. However the eyes of cas-
tern capitalists are being turned to-
wards these deposits.
Some of the greatest railway COM
panies in the world have made most of
their money out of coal mines and the
transportation TO coal, and capital will
sooner invest in a railroad to a coal
mine than to one of gold. Even If New
Mexico had no other industries for
capital the railroads would come any
way in order to get into the coal de-
posits and reap the benefits to be de-
rived there the same as from those of
the east. and it is almost certainty
that within a few years the territory
will be covered by a net work of rail-
roads.
AS yet the coal deposits of only sew
en- districts in New Mexico are being
developed These are located in Nc
Kinley ColfaX, Santa Fe, Rio Ariba,
San Juan Socorro and Lincoln coun-
ties. This arrangement of the depos
its fortunately covers nearly the en-
tire territory and provides the people
with fuel without the expense of long
hauls and high transportation charges.
The coal in the deposits that have
been developed is of a fine quality and
the veins range from three to eighteen
feet in thickness. There is no doubt
but what this element of natural
wealth constitutes an important factor
in the future growth of New Mexico,
as the day when when as necessity
they will be in a great demand can not
be far distant
