When a man has followed one line of

to be room in Alma for third drug store
owing to the large increase Of business
done in the town, he purchased the ne.

ADELPHICS.
An Excellent Program Well Rendered

An Excellent Program Well Rendered
The Adelphic Literary Society Of
Alma College gave its sixth annual pub
lie in the college chapel Monday night,
April 23 The society was represented
on the program by five of its members
who performed their parts in such a
manner as TO do themselves and the So
ciety great credit. The exercises opened
with a piano solo by Miss Wagner. AT
ter prayer by Prof. j. w. Ewing Mr..
Baker, president of the society gave an
Grafton on the Decline of Russian Des-
potism" He showed how the railroad
and the telegraph are opening the in
terror of Russia TO the enlightenment of
the surrounding W orld, and how with
Enlightenment despotism is declining
when the people become educated, the
Gar must make greater concessions, or
they will demand constitutional gov
eminent. His Grafton was well pre-
pared and his delivery was excellent.
Mr. Mcbride followed with an essay
lone View of Napoleon" 1t was fine
literary production and was read in an
interesting manner. He said in sub
stance that Napoleon, who had wrought
great changes in the worlds history,
could not be judged by the results of his
deeds, but by his motives and purposes.
Next was a vocal solo by MIR. Bagley,
"Tis Home Where The Heart Is. He
rendered it in a most charming manner
which is characteristic Of all Of Mr..
Bagley's singing.
Mr. Barker followed with an Grafton
on British Rule a Benefit 70 India. d."
He pointed ont some Of the changes that
are taking place in India and some of
the benefits which are incurirg TO the
people of India under British rule. His
delivery was good. This was followed
by a vocal solo charmingly rendered by
Mrs. Pettyjohn.
Mr.. Wilcox read an essay on" Tyranny
and the French People" After enum-
Grating some of the struggles OF the peo-
pie of France against the oppression of
their rulers, he showed how France is
slowly outgrowing the terrible effects Of
tyranny. 1t was forceful production,
Mr.. Willebrands delivered an oration,
"Heroes Unknown to Fame" This
was fine. He said in substance that
many heroes, whose lives are spent in
quiet, noble service are never heard of
in the list of the worlds heroes no men,
tion is made of some of its greatest vic.
tors, but their lives are stamped upon
humanity
The last number was a violin solo by
Dudley Tinker. 1t was excellent. Thus
closed what was perhaps the best pro-
gram ever rendered by the Adelphic So.

A dispatch from Santa Fe to the Den
yer Times of the l4th says: MANY
census enumerators in New Mexico have
had their salary accounts suspended,
and the agricultural aud manufacturing
schedules have been sent back for cor
rection and more explicit information.
The schedules received scarcely any
attention. In most instances industries
known to be in existence in 1890 and re-
ported in the census were not reported
at all by the present enumeratUrs, and
the census office wants some explanation;
wants to know If they are now in buSi-
ness, and il not, why not. The instruc-
tions are to make these corrections and
get the schedules started back to Wash
ington by the 18th inst, but this is not
possible, as many of the enumerators
residing in isolated districts will not re-
ceive the returned schedules until about
that date. In Pena Blanca precinct no
census at all had been taken, and several

in New Mexico have protestel to Wash

The Rev. +. Il, Dixon prayed for
disaster to befal new brewery, and
by coincidence the building was struck
by lightning. Now the brewing COM
pany seeks to collect damages from the
pastor. The technical points of this
case are unique. One phase to rule
upon Is whether the responsibility
should be solely with the clergyman or
partly upon providence. Then comes
the question whether prayer had any
thing to do with the disaster. Ii the
preacher should deny all share in the
responsibility he will practically re-
pudiate the efficacy of prayer in bring

Two Officers on the Track Of the MUIR

Tuesday afternoon telegram was re-
ceved in this city from Charles Frank
lin, at Tularosa, stating that a man
named Claude Barbee had shot aud
killed his (Franklin's) brother at the
ranch of +. Rhodes, in the San An
dreas mountains. 1t appears that
! Barbee had stolen a saddle belonging to
A. j. Gilmore, of Angus, the theft be-
ing committed during the meeting Of
the Baptist Conference at that place.
Hamilton, who was appointed a special
deputy sheriff, accompanied by two
others, set off in pursuit of Barbee and
came across him near the Rhodes ranch.
Barbee, when informed he was under
arrest, consented to accompany the
party back, and Hamilton started to the
corral to procure horse for him, when
Barbee pulled gun, which he had OBJ
tanned possession of unknown to the
others, and fired six shots at Hamilton,
every one of which took effect, killing
him Immediately. He then jumped on
a horse standing near by and made his
escape. The matter has been placed in
the hands of Sheriff p f. Garrett, of
Dona Ana county, who has two deputies
on the track of the murderer, but as yet
nothing has been heard from them.
