A vERIrAsLE oLp.rIMER.
He Was Generous to the Railway Com
pany, But Now Pays His Fare.

William Hoehne, one of the earliest
of Las Animas county's pioneers and
for whom the Hoehne settlement was
named, arrived in the city yesterday
and is the guest of Mrs. Luning of the
north side For considerable num-
ber of years Mr.. Hoehne has been a
resident of New Mexico. About two
months ago his aged wife died and he
is now making a visit to the scenes of
his active manhood. He is over eighty
years of age but still has good health.
Mr.. Hoehne will visit here for several
weeks and the old timers will give
him a cordial welcome.-Trinida
Advertiser
And this reminds an Op ptic repor-
ter of the fact that Mr.. Hoehne had
to plank down the cash fare to Trini-
dad, notwithstanding that he gave the
Santa Fe railway company the right
of way through over 800 acres of his
land, up in Colorado, and offered the
officials a fifteen-acre tract If they
would establish a station at his place.
This they concluded not to do, though
there is a side track at Hoehne, Colo,
for the convenience of passing trains.
Mr.. Hoehne was told he would get
life mass IN tha Santa Re road for his
generous donation and tempting offer,
out his pass was taken away from him
upon the retirement of A. A. Robinson,
some years ago.

Chattanooga, Sept 27--The' Calves
ton cyclone, which startled the world
with horror September 9th, was pre-
dicted nearly eighteen months ago by
Prof. Andrew jackson DeVoe, the
meteorologist who prepares the wea-
ther forecast used by the Chattanooga
Medicine company in it's ladies' birth
chart and calendar. Over $4,000 900
of these almanacs and !, 100000 of the
calendars are issued each year and
every copy printed for 1900 showed
this prediction. Prof. DeVoe has been
making these weather forecasts for
years and has made some truly won
derful representations in the past.
He foretold the coming of the St.
Louis cyclone four years ago with the
same accuracy as the recent cyclone
at Galveston, when he gave the loea-
ton and day. In his forecasts for the
month of September, 1900, DeVoe
says: "On the 9th a great cyclone
will form over the Gulf of Mexico and
move up the Atlantic coast. AT this
season cyclones are likely to form
over the Atlantic ocean and travel
westward, causing heavy rains in the
Gulf states
The Chattanooga medicine com
pany states that the Ladies Birthday
almanac for 1901 will be in the hands
of the druggists for free distribution
in October.

Victor, Colo, Sept 27.-As Roose-

by mob. The governor was escort
ed by the local rough riders club and
some of the soldiers of the Spanish
American war, who served with him
in Cuba were also in the party. The
mob consisted of only few boys and
men who were armed with sticks and
stones. Gov. Roosevelt was closely
surrounded by his friends and was not
injured in the least. AS the party
was going to the train, the most ser
ious time occurred, when q rufFian
struck the governor with club. The
assailant was Immediately knocked
down by Postmaster Sullivan, of Grip
pie Creek.
The mob also made an attempt to
drag the men in khaki uniforms. from
their horses but failed.
The entire party reached the tram
in safety.

Leadville, Colo, Sept. 27.-The

train passed through Victor, where
the riots occurred last evening On
it's return trip in the night, over the
Colorado Midland, the train was well
guarded with resolute men armed with
Winchesters and any one loolsins fes
trouble could have been easily ac-
commodated. The governor. after the
labors of the day, slept TRANQUILITY as
If nothing had happened. The sched-
ule for the day provides for ten
speeches. Leadville was reached at
IL o'clock, where a stop was made
for an hour and forty-fve minutes. A
large crowd was assembled at the
station, where preparations had been
made for big outdoor demonstration.
Roosevelt and party were driven to
the corner of Harrison and Fifth
streets, where stand was erected.
People lined the streets the entire
distance. The crowd around the stand
was great. Rev. Fleming, chaplain
of the Colorado Philippine regiment,
introduced Senator Wolcott, who made
a warm speech ending by introducing
Roosevelt. A. NJ. Stevenson followed.
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who was
with Roosevelt in the riot yesterday,
also made short speech.

The Missouri idea.

The following paragraph from a Mis-
souri, paper is worth the space it occu-
pies:
Drink and the gang drinks with
you, swear off and you go it alone, for
the bar-room bum who drinks your
rum has a quenchless thirst of his
own. Feast and your friends are
many, fast and they cut you cold,
they do not get mad if you treat them
bad, so long as their stomachs are
fed Steal if you get million, for
then you can furnish bail; it's the
great big thief who gets out on leave
where the little ones go to jail. Ad-
vertise and the dollars will come;
quit and they fail to arrive; for how
are men who have money to spend
going to know you are still alive"

The estate of Frank Reid, who was
