ON ACCOUNT OF HIGH PRICES
List of Public Buildings on Which Work
Is Suspended in Preparation.

List or PUBIC bund1ng s on which work
Is Suspended in Preparation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Mr. Taylor,
assistant secretary of the treasury in
charge of the erection Of public build
ings, is preparing for transmission to
congress list of public buildings in
the United States, on which work has
been stopped or never begun, on &C
count of the price increase of building
materials or the shortage Of iron. There
are number of cities which have been
voted money by congress for public
bulldogs. In many cases the build
ings have never been begun, because
contractors would not undertake their
construction within the appropriation.
Sites in many cases have been secured,
but there the matter has been held up.
Congress will be asked to increase these
appropriations so that the protected
buildings may be erected as originally
intended,

Mules Must He vaooinated.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 1.-THE Ameri-
can mule must be vaccinated before he
can be enlisted in the British army
service in South Africa in the future.
The admiralty has passed upon his case
and the decree is final. Seventy-five or
hundred, possibly more, of the mules
died of CHAMBERS or kindred disease,
after they had landed on African soil.
The animals are separated, tempera-
ture taken, and virus injected. The
vaccination of the mules is what caused

LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Daily Mail

AFTER two days earnest inquiry I
have no hesitation in stating that the

guns and ammunition for the Beers,
but that it has already packed ready
for shipment to the Transvaal six heavy
guns of large calibre. Workmen tell
me that before long 10 guns will be dis

NEW YORK, Jan. ia special to
The Herald from London says: A dis
patch received through the agency con-
tains the strange information that 10
train loads of mounted men have been
sent back to Durham by General Butler.
They took trains Saturday for the
Tugela river and it is said that they are
to march through Zululand. There is
no other corroborating dispatch and it
is hard to see why so large body of
such men as are most needed at the
front should be sent at this time to
make SO long q march.

As he finished gupin git down he reached into a large pocket and drew forth what looked to be d coon skin. The barkeeper took the skin. an: opening q drawer, hauled out d rabbit skin, which he offered as chang. Tn muuntaineer picked up the skin and started to the front part Of the store. which was the grocery department He there bought twist nf pug tobac- co and tendrrsd the rabbit skin in payment. He received big twist of long green. and ] was surprised to se- the storekeeper reach in another draw CT and tender him a squirrel skin. The muuntainrer tucked the squirrel skin
  his horse. and rode away.
 "I became interested and engaged th proprietor in conversation. He told me that he would go months without see ing any real money, and thar tho mountainCers used the skins m al kinds of trades. such as buying pln visions, horses. etc. He said that four tines year q hide buyer from LeXing to nor Cincinnati visited the country and bought up all the skins. which were generally concentrated in the fe" stores in the vicinity.

treaty or international agreement that
will for q minute stand in the way OF
the construction of some sort OF q
water storage reservoir in the valley
above Ell Paso. The HERALD con-
siders the two as of nearly equal i'm
portauce from an FL Psso standpoint,
but it seems IS if policy would demand
the prior settlement OF the interna-
tional question.
Why, then, can there not be general
cooperation among all the elements in
Ell Paso, New Mexico, and Colorado
that are interested in Rio Grande ir-
rigation, along these lines, viz: Push
the international dam to success first,
taking care that no treaty obligation
or legal precedent shall be established
that will make impossible the consum-
nation of q reasonable irrigation
scheme for the upper valley: when
this is accomplished, let the energies
of all be directed toward the salvation
of the upper valley, New Mexico's
garden spot and Ell Paso's right
hand.
1t would be timely act, and one
likely to create a better feeling, il the
chamber of commerce would officially
express itself in line with the above
suggestion.
