SPARRoWS PURSUE A CAT.

The ivy which climbs the north wall of the United Congregational church in Newport, R L. furnishes a retreat for thousands of sparrows. 4 cat had noticed the birds, and no doubt con ceived the unreasonable idea that here she might possibly iino a nest with a tocrhsome young bird in il. So pussy climbed the ivy and reached a point where she had seen one of the birds disappear amid the thick leaves Stretching out its paws where ii sup posed nest would be loud chattering ensued and q myriad of spalrows dart ed out and attacked the cat with fury.
 It was indeed a vicious onslaught, They pecked and chattered and Hut tered at a great rate and the cat wss oewildered, To free itself from the assault the cat spit and fought and Gowled, but it was of no use, the birds kept at it unti. their enemy fell to the ground. This did not stop the com bat Oi the birds, They kep pecking away until they were tired. The eat did not move and occasionally a spar TOW would drop to the ground cafe distance from it's enemy, as if to see if it was dead Some little time after ward a witness of this strange strug- gle went to the spot and found that the eat was dead, Its eyes had been lit eraliy dug out and its head was a mass of bleeding wounds.

TRICKS PLAYED WITH JEWELS
How the Value of Gems Ls Som ettmes Inersased by AdrOit Jsw-
 elera.

There are tricks in all trades, and the tricks of the jewellers are sometimesso adroit as to deceive the most expert who are unfamiliar with them Large rubies can now be made out of small that would when cut, take in even an expert lapidary if he trusted to his eye only He must examine with a micro scope to detect the vamped up stone Some bubbles in iL are then visible that is all. The double refraction, that depth of color which-is d cares to the eye, and the hardness are there. The vamped-up ruby is produced by melt ing the small rubies into one. A clever device of jewellers who go in for cheap ness--or cheat ting--is to set a rose dia- mond on foundation of paste. The gold setting hides the joint.
 The first application on large scale of this trick took place not long ago at Brussels. X man entered a jewellers shop, and, saying he had lost at rou lette and needed money, at once of fered for sale his wife's necklace. The price he asked was only half the ap- parent value. The iewelsr examined it, found the wide refraction of the dia mond which is the cause of those bril-. liant fireworks, but still was mistrust- tul.
 As you are so hard up," he said, q can't do anything. My condition for transaction is this-that you leave this necklace with me for two days" This was agreed to He took the first ex- press to Paris aud showed the necklace to some experts. They took part of it to pieces and discovered the fraud.

Railway COMPANY BEGINNING Right.

The El Paso G. Northeastern railway
Is always doing something surprising.
Last week it raised the compensation
of the train crews rs per cent without
consulting them, and this week 1t is
sued a new rate sheet for points along
the line, cutting all freight charges for
a loads and less rs per cent. This was
done notwithstanding the fact that the
road has no competitor and mo public
agitation had been made with regard to
freight rates. If the company continues
to pursue such a liberal policy toward
the territory along its route there will
be rapid growth Of industries which
could not get a start If the railway were
too greedy. 1t was the policy of the
Denver & Rio Grande in encouraging
even THE smallest Of enterprises upon it's
roads i'm Colorado that did more than
anything else to hasten development Of
the resources and ait the same time
make the company famous for fairness
in dealing with the people. The Ell Paso
& Northea stern is going to earn hand
some dividends from working Its coal
mines and selling the product to am
other railway; it a afford to do the
fair thing with the patrons of the line
from Ell Paso and help them to get ev-
cry branch of business in Lincoln and
Otero counties upon a self sustaining
basis quickly.

To Brine MINING Men TO New Mexico.

The railway companies with lines
coming to Santa Fe have both taken
c~ognizance of the Importance of the Co.
chiti mineral district, and now sell tick
cts from New Mexico and Colorado
points to the town OF Bland. They
also will advertise available facts with
regard to the camp. There are MANY
men in Colorado looking for investment
in mining, and when the winter is end
ed it may be expected THAT many OF
them will come to this city in order to
visit Bland. The Denver & Rio Grande
railway advertising of the mining re-
sources Of Colorado started the first
rush to that state many years ago. But
for the advertising the opportunities
would NOT 80 soon have become known
all over the world, and Colorado would
have been peopled much more slowly.
The railway companies can do much for
New Mexico by making the resources
known through the splendid facilities
the companies have. For some time past
the SANTA Fe Railway Company has
been making Investigations with regard
to the various districts more with a
view of enlfsting the attention OF cap
ltalfsts than for the purpose Of causing
immigration, but If men of money are
shown how they can profit by mining in
the territory 1t follows that other mer
must come to carry on the work Of de-
velopment and production. A rush Of
prospectors and laborers is not 30 much
needed as investigators who have funds
to open the properties already d1scov-
cred. Shelters, mills and machinery are
needed, and then the increase OF popu.
lation in the mining districts will follow.

Cattlemen Oppose LEASING,

The combination of stockmen who
met at Fort Worth and got THE Texas
members to vote through a declaration
in favor OF leasing public lands, when
Texas has none Within her borders to
be affected by such a law, will soon sub
init the scheme to congress. But they
win find a strong opposition to such a
measure among cattle1nen as we'll ais
sheep owners Several associations of
cattle owners in different states have
already announced THAT they will OPP
pose the scheme, and have appealed to
congressman ta defeat 1T. AS an in
stance Of the way in which most cattle
owners feel concerning all plans to let
cattle corporations secure control of the
range i'm order Ito fence it, the action of
those of the Middle and North Park
country in Colorado can be cited. Sew
eral big companies Have applied to the
state land board for leases covering 49,
600 acres of land, among others the
company of which Swift the packer is
president. The other stockmen of the
section of the state where the desired
lands are situated will organize and OPP
pose the granting of the leases. One of
the opponents of the scheme Says that
if the state needs the money the cattle
men will willingly pay a fixed charge
per head for all animals grazed upone
the range, but will do all in their power
to prevent the lands being secured by
any company and fenced to keep off the
herds of the people who used the range
before the state selected the lands as a
portion of the area donated by congress
for public purposes.

Wheeler Is Unhappy.

General Wheeler says that he was in
many fights over in the Philippines, but
General Otis never mentioned him In
the dispatches. General Funston, too,
seems Ito have been forgotten since he
returned to THE field. But as the
paper correspondents over there have
not been muzzled for the past two
months, If these generals had done amy
thing remarkable the press would have
BEEN Informed. Perhaps the fact that
Wheeler has mot been able to keep him
self before the public as a soldier ac-
counts for his return to this country.

Why should the Texas cattle corpora
lions not wish the government to lease
lands? They long ago grabbed all the
range in western Texas, and fenced in
the plains until the New Mex'nD line
was reached. There they had to stop.

Pile can Craze their focks and herds. But
rates the of hundreds of miles
of barbed-wire fences can extend them

the Texans who wish to extend thei1
pastures.

The Eagle at Silver City has again
made its appearance, but instead of an
nouncing that it will be a Democratic
Journal as of yore, claims that it will
be independent of party affiliations.
May be it will for a time, but when
there are issues upon which people are
divided the Eagle will naturally fall in
with one side or the other and be known
by THE company it keeps. There are
very few journals classed by the pub
lie as independent in politics, and fewer
still that are neutral, and yet regarded
as having any stamina. Neither men
nor newspapers which are not one thing
or another with regard Ito politics nave

Congressman stoieys The sives.
tons1ied millionaire orator Of Pennsyi-
vania, was elected to congress and car
ried his district for Bryan on the free
silver issue. He has now published a
letter in accepting a request that he
again be a candidate for congress that
will not be pleasant reading for Colonel
Bryan, who counted Sibley as one Of
his star supporters, as follows,
The political creed that governs my
actions may be briefly stated, to sup
port every man and every measure that
has for an antmating purpose the well
fare Of society and the upbuilding,
prosperity and glory of u common
country.
I'm a most trying period in the ma
tion's history 1 believe the administra-
ton has conducted affairs with safety
and with honor, having in view the well
fare of all classes of citizens. Junius
wrote in one of his letters as follows:
The merits of a ministry may be best
determined by observing the conditions
of the people,
IF this De a fair test of merit, then I
believe the president is entitled to the
respect, confidence and support of every
mar who prefers the welfare of all
classes of citizenship to the welfare of
any portion thereof under party divi-
sions. I supported the administration
because / am in sympathy with its ac-
lions of the past, the present. and its
aims for the future. SO far as they are
outlined. Any measures which in their
tendency threaten present prosperity
should be viewed by us all as impend-
ing calamithes to be avoided. My duty,
as believe it ito be the duty of every
citizen who recalls the misery of the
last few years and contrasts it with the
present content and happiness of our
people as a whole, is to make common
cause that the blessings enjoyed at the
present moment shall be maintained
and enlarged.
II therefore nou myself as your
canQldate Tor from une uWen-
t~y-seventh district renewing my
pledges of the past to give you and TIC
the principles you represent and to the
nation my best efforts for a continual
ton of the present prosperity and those
principles which, if I understand the
aim of the Republican party at the
present time, will further enhance and
secure to all classes and conditions OF
society a more enlarged and general
participation in the blessing Of free
government"

they shall take up the lease scheme. AS

srderation, but Will probably be entirely

The Santa Fee railway that
a special excursion rate will apply on
February Is from all Colorado points to
New Mexico mining districts. Presu-
mably the Denver & Rio Grande will
follow suit in so far as places upon it's
line are concerned. The result should
be an influx of Colorado mining men to
Santa Fe en- route to the Cochiti, as both
railways come to this city. And Ham
over should be the destination of many
e~xcursionists. Both Grant county and
the Cochiti are now favorite places of
investment for Colorado capital.
