Why He Doesn't Walk.

A story is going the rounds that when
William M. Evarts was asked the other
day to what he ascribed his long life and
excellent health, he replied: 81 don't
know, unless it is because L don't take
any exercise This has been taken as
one of MIR. Evarts' jokes. Those who
know the.venerable gentleman best re
cognize the answer as absolutely true.
MIR. Evarts takes no exercise. He has
carefully avoided exercise for many
years. When he went from his home to
his Office he would not walk block; he
would take a carriage, no matter how
short the distance. Mr. Evarts isn't the
physical exercise, added to mental effort,
is a waste of tissue, which tends toward
debility and shortening of life. Mr..
Joseph Chamberlain is a CONSPICUOUS ex-
ample. He spares himself all physical
effort, so far as he can. He will not
walk up a single flight of stairs if he can
help it. Senator Hanna is, perhaps, the
most notable exponent of this practice In
Washington. Vigorous he is in
speech and in mental effort, the Senator
is seldom seen save in an attitude which
suggests physical repose. The President
walks daily, He feels badly without his
constitutional. He strides with the
movement OF a man to whom the sxer-
else is keen enjoyment. Usually he is
accompanied by some one who may be at
the White House when he starts. Nobody
can rememb bcr to have seen Senator Han
n accompa nyinss the President on a walk
in the three years at Wash1ngton.-Cor-
respondence Globe-Democrat.

February Moisture.

The first snowfall bulletin of the New
Mexico section, issued at Santa Fe on
March 3, thus summaries the meas
urements:
Reports from all sections of the ter
ritory show that not only the snow ly-
.ag on the ground is unusually light for
the season. bnt also that the total snow
fall for this winter so far was much less
than the average amount On the 25th
of February, the date which the esti-
mates were taken, there was practically
no snow below attitudes of 5000 feet,
and on southern slopes but little below
10000 feet. There has been compara-
lively little wind, and as the snow lies
evenly cut the summits. there is alb
sence of the large drifts from which
comes the greater part of the spring flow
At the headwaters of the Rio Grande and
San Juan rivers, in southwestern Col
orado, there seems to be about the av
erage amount of snow, but from the
New Mexico tributaries these will re-
ceive very little increase. OF the streams
whose watersheds lie wholly within New
Mexico, it is safe to say that the present
snow supply is not sufficient to keep up
the current flow. and unless there is
heavy snow soon or good early rains, the
sections depending on these are threat
ened with Il serious water famine in the
early sprisg.
