is that weather conditions never inter-

Ply

The most beautiful thing in the world is the baby, all dimples and joy. The most pitiful thing is that same baby, thin and in pain. And the mother does not know that a little fat makes all the differ ence.
 Dimples and joy have gone, and left hollows and fear; the fat, that was comfort and color and curve--all but pity and love--is gone.
 The little one gets no fat from her food. There is some thing Wrong;ltls either her food or food-mill. She has had no fat for weeks; Is living on what she had stored in that plump little body of hers; and that is gone. She is starving for fat; it is death, be quick!

We have watched the papers very closely, expecting every day that Gov. Jones ct al. would issue a specific denial and complete re- futation of the charges brought against them by Prof. Ernest T. Bynum, of Fayetteville; but up to this date our diligence has been
 without reward. Will t,.c gentlemen whose honesty and integrity has
 been SO seriously questioned per
 init these charges to go by un-
 noticed? Prof Bynum charges that attempts were made to confer the l.. L. D. degree of the State
 University upon certain prominent men of the State in return for aid rendered to Gov. Jones ill his race for the United States senatorship, and asserts that his opposition to the wholesale conferring of these degrees brought down upon his head the wrath of the high officials of the State and University, and that his stand upon the question caused his dismissal from his posi- tion ill the school. If these things are true no measure of censure can be too severe, no rebuke too caus- tic for these officials who have thus betrayed solemn trust i'm posed i'll them by the people, and if Bynum has maliciously slandered these gentlemen they should cer- tainly give the citizens of Arkansas the facts in the case and remove the stigma from their names.

Gen. Kitchener's plan to concen- trate in towns all the non-combat- ants in South Africa has begun to work. We read in recent dis
 patch that seventy-fve women whose husbands are in the Boer army have been deported from their homes to Pietermaritzburg, one of the British towns in Natal. England's policy ill this respect should occasion no surprise to those who are familiar with the history of her warfare. It is not astonishing that the same nation which incites the savage and mer-
 ciless Indians to ravage the de- fenseless homes of the Amer ican soldiers during the Revolutionary war, should again introduce bar parity into it's warfare. The ap- palling cruelty of this concentra- ton measure is no greater than that which characterized England $ policy with the Acadian peasants, when these simple people were torn ruthlessly from their homes

 1t is too early now to predict with any degree of certainty what action Democracy will take on the silver issue in 1904; but it is evi- dent that this issue has not such a strong following in the party ranks at the present time as it did in 1896. At the Kansas City convention the silver plank received bare ma jority in the committee, and the deciding vote was cast by the Ha- waiian delegate, who, represented no electoral vote. Indeed, the states which voted for the silver plank represented much smaller number of electoral votes than did the states which opposed it. Tax ing this into consideration it takes no seer to perceive that free silver is not as strong with the party as ill 1896. As for the people, their attitude towards this issue has changed even more decidedly than has that of the party. This is evi- denced by McKinley's increased majority this year, despite the strength of anti-imperialism and opposition to trusts as issues. Now along with these facts it might not be amiss to consider few more things in 7 connection with free silver. Free silver is originally a Republican issue. having been embodied in the platform of that party in 1896, and was only drop |p ped by them because their leaders in 1896 saw air opportunity to raise a large campaign fund by favoring the gold standard. For it cannot be denied that the majority of the country's business men are op- posed to free silver; and is 1t we'll advised, is 1t logical to presume that business mems interests are not identical with those of the peo- pie at large? In the panic of '93, when poverty entered the homes of the poor, it passed not by the rich. Every day saw the failure of great banking, manufacturing and commercial institutions. This panic certainly affected both poor and rich alike, and thus far their inter est do not conflict. Now i'll the present wave of prosperity both classes seem to be affected alike, as far as we can determine. These things prove that the prosperity of business men and, the people at large are not always obtained by different methods. Another thing, the very fact that we can have prosperity under the gold standard should be considered. It is rule of common acceptance that we should not make a change unless we make one for the better. Hav- ing this maxim in view, consider ing the general prosperity of the country, acknowledging the two defeats, of free silver at the hands of the people, surely the party will consider we'll this issue before adopting it again in 1904.

Established Years Ago-Good Meals and
Prompt Service.

The Bon-Ton restaurant and hotel
was established in Santa Fe by the late
John w. Conway in 1883, and aver since
then it has been recognized as a place
where a good meal could be obtained
either day or night. Since the death of
the founder of this popular and deserv-
ing resort for hungry people, it's en-
viable reputation has been fully sus-
tanned by Mrs. Conway, with John V.
Conway officiating as general manager
and chief caterer. The restaurant and
short order counter are always sup
piled with the choicest edibles that the
market affords, and cooks, who know
how to broil a Kansas City beef steak
to a turn or serve fresh fish or eggs his
sing hot and cooked just as desired,
are always on duty, eager to please all
corners by prompt, courteous. and sat
isfactory service. Spring chickens,
game in season, frogs legs. the finest
fruits and vegetables are always on the
bill of fare. Fair dealing, reasonable
charges, and strict attention to bust
ness are the cardinal principles Of the
management. The future is always
kept in view and no effort is spared to
make things so attractive that the
guest of today will return to the Bon
Ton tomorrow.

it is certain that 1t was built about 275
years ago, and has been used as a re-
ligious edifice ever since. Old men say
that the date of the building Is carved
upon the beam which supports the gal
lery; it has not been found yet. With
careful searching this following in
scription has been found: Antonio de
Jesus roga por un padre nuestro y Ave
Maria por ell amor de Dios." 1t Is sit
uated lear the south wall and Is now
covered by the new cornice.
All that is known, and this Is a his
torical fact, is that when Santa Fe was
given up to the pillage in 1880, the
churches were d~esecrated and partly
pulled down, but Guadalupe being
somewhat out of town Jared better for
awhile, but was sacked the following
year, 1851.
Behind the altar Is a fine painting
representing the four apparitions Of the
Blessed Virgin to the Indian, Juan
Diego. 1t was painted at Mexico by Jo-
seph de Alzibar, A. D. 1888; at least that
is the supposition. Guadalupe church
a erected as a parish on December
II, 1881, by his Grace Archbishop J. B.
Lamy, appointing to take charge of said
church Very Rev. J. H. Defouri, who
was then in Denver. On his arrival in
Santa Fe, Father Defouri was offered
by his grace, the archbishop, to take
charge Of Our Lady Of Guadalupe for
the English speaking Catholic congre-
cation in this city. The church had
been closed for years, having been used
a few times each year. Through the
endless endeavors and work and con-
slant repairs by Father Defouri, 1t be-
came one Of the most beautiful spots in
the city. Father Defouri was removed
to Las Vegas in 1894. His successor
was Rev. Paul Gilberton, who took
charge of the Guadalupe church, Sep

thereof.
