Lonely TEibea,

Perhaps the most isolated tribe of
people in the world is the Tshuktshi,
u people occupying the northern por-
ton OF the peninsula of kamskatka
and the country northward toward
Bering Straits. These people are prac-
tlcally independent of Russia, who ap-
pears TO have reasons of her own for let
ting them alone. They have practically
no communication with the outside
world, and have only been visited two
or three times--the last time by MAJ.
de Nindt cn his journey through ST
beTia. The Inhabitants of the New 81
herian islands are also practically alone
on earth, for they can only communi-
cate with the mainland, and therefore
with the rest Of the world, once year.
and q succession Of bad seasons might
isolate them for years. The pycnaies
of th6 great Central African forests.
if they can be called tribe, have also
been people apart. For ages their eX-
lsteuce was little more than legendary
and only two expeditions commanded
by white men have ever penetrated into
their abode.-N. Y. Sun.

The Good That Lodges DO.

1t is the duty Of every man, unless he
is of independent means, to belong 10
lodge or two aud have his life insured.
No iigures-can give any idea Of the i'm
mense good done by these agencies; the
sorrow aud the distress they have light
ened and the tears that they have wiped
away. There would probably be mil
lion more poor widows and children
fighting against bitter want at the'end
of every ten years were ii not for these
great agencies for good, the lodge and
the insurance company. They are all
cooperative agencies. in certain sense,
and sociaIistic in their nature. and
therefore truly belong to the people.
An Instance of the Lodge spirit was
manifested right in Santa Fe this week
A poor Swede. without money aud with
out friends in the territory. WAS man
gled by train in this county aud killed.
Under ordinary circumstances he would
have been buried where found; his FAM
lily would never have heard of his fate
and would always be in doubt about his
whereabouts. But an Odd Fellows pin
in the mans coat attracted the attention
of a passenger on train He took
charge of the body. 1t was brought to
Santa Fe, An Odd Fellows certificate
was the means of identifying the dead
man, and ready lodge brethren in this
city at once notified relatives and the
home lodge. which made itself respon-
sible for the expenses of shipping the
remains to the mans dear ones and
giving them decent burial The lodge
will do more than that. 1t will look
after the aged mother in Mississippi.
and if she is in want give her the
means to fight Immediate want.
Thousands Of such instances of doing
good by lodges never come to the pub
lie attention. There are many men in
this Western country who are supported
by lodges until they have gained their
health, who otherwise would have died
in the East of consumption. The best
investment that any young or old nan
can make is to join some fraternal or
ganization and to insure in some life in
Surance company. Days of sickness and
need are sure TO come, and if they come
to man or family unprcpared for them
they mean sorrow aud destitution.- New

Governor Otero's Record.

The III PaSo News. owned by Felix
Martinez. former citizen Of San Miguel
county, aud who is a personal enemy of
Governor Otere. thinks that there will
be strife amongst the Republicans when
it comes to the appointment of governor
Of New Mexico. 1t published ghost
story Of Governor Roosevelt asking that
Major LIewellyn should be appointed,
and another fake that Congressman
Taylor, Of ohio, will want Surveyor
General Vance made governor The
New Mexican is Of the opinion that Mr..
Taylor will have too much sense TO make
such a foolish move.
That there are some few men who
train with the Republican party, but
who are Republicans in name only, who
will oppose Governor Otero for reap
pontment is probably true. No man
can hold the Office Of governor for four
years without making enemies, es-
pecally if he tries To do his duty and
act fairly. squarely and honestly. To
be sure. Governor Otero has made such
enemies, but the result of the last cleo
tion shows plainly and unequvocally
that the people the plain people, the
taN-payiug people and the people who
care for the advancement Of New Mex
leo, regard the situation in a different
light. The fight during the last cam
paign was not made npon the candidate
to congress to any extent, but it was
made to very large extent upon the
governor. his administration, his ap.
p0intm nts his acts aud the acts of the
Tbirty-third legislative assembly. The
result shows that Governor Otero, his
administration, his appointments, his
acts and the acts Of the Thirty third
legislative assembly We're indorsed by
the largest majority ever given any Re-
publican delegate to congress, and the
election of three fourths Of the council

About Girls.

worth one-eyed button to her hus-
band. 1t is the law OF God. 1t isn't
exactly in the Bible, but it's written
large and awful in the lives of many
misft homes. I'm speaking for the
boys this time. II one of you chaps
ever run across a girl with her face full
of roses and she says to you as you
come to the door, Il cannot 60 for
thirty minutes yet, for the dishes are
not washed" you wait for that girl.
You sit right down on the door step and
wait for her, because some other fellow
may come along and carry her of,
and then yon would lose an angel.
Wait for that girl and stick to her like

European PIums.

1.-The time OF blooming is the keynote
to the selection of varieties for this eli
mate" No matter how good and profit
able variety may be in other states, or
how widely it is advertised, if in New
Mexico its blooming period is SO early
that the main crop of blooms is de-
stroyed by the late spring fr0sts, then
such variety would be Of little or no
value here Such is the case with many
well known Japanese plums, of which
we have already spoken in previous
bulletin. However, the European plums
are better adapted to our high altitude
and dry climate. They are generally
late boomers, thus nSuring good crops.
Different varities of this type are being
grown with satisfactory results through
out the territory. The varieties of the
European type are very numerous and
cover long period in ripening: there
is also such wide range in sizes and
colorS that selection Of varieties can
be made for nearly any purpose for
which plums are used.
Twenty varieties Of the European
plums have been tested in the expert
ment station orchard at Mesilla Park
and during the last six years record OF
the blooming and ripening periods of
these pums has been kept; also de-
scripti0ns Of each variety have been
made. All are good, and with two eX-
ceptions, late boomers. blooming after
danger of frost is over The Tragedy
and Clyman are what may be called
medium late boomers, being usually in
full bloom about March 36th, when the
danger of frost is not yet all over. The
Clyman is promising plum, especially
because it fruits very early. 1t can be
placed on the market as early as the
Wild Goose. Most Of the varieties in
the test tend to overbear and in order
to secure large, fine fruits heavy thin
ming is necessary. This is especially
true of such varieties as the Royale
Hative, Imperial Gage, Bulgarian, Eel
lenberg, Ponds Seeding, Yellow Egg
and French Prune.
1t is usually unsafe to make a general
recommendation OF varieties OF any
fruit. The value of variety lies not
only in it's intrinsic merits, but in its
adaptations to the personal likes of the
grower, the markets and other external
conditions. However, the following are
a few of the varieties which now seem
to be valuable for general uses. The
size, color and date of ripenlug at Me-
Silla Park is given with each variety:
Clyman, large, purple; ripens July lst.
ROyale Hative, medium, purple; ripenS
July 18th. Jefferson, large, golden yel-
low; ripehs August 25th. Ponds Seed
ling, large, purple; ripens August 18th.
The prunes do admirably. The
French, German and Silver are perhaps
the best the Silver prime being The
largest and the French the smallest and
most prolific.

A sacramento Mountain Rose.

One of the finest wild roses in America
was discovered and described not long
since by the botanist Of the Mesilla
Park Agricultural station, Professor Il
0. Wooten, having been found growing
wild in the Organ and Sacramento noun
tains. Investigations of this character
by the station are not alone valuable to
science, illustrating as they do the great
scope for original work IN all lines in
this territory but are frequently valuable
in other respects. Not long since a
small weed, growing profusey on the
mesas and valleys, was found to possess
qualities which apparently make it
valuable as substitute for litmus, and
IL is mere than possible that this little
weed can be demonstrated to be valuable
to commerce.
