 Among the low priced railroad Secur- tiles which can be classed among reas- onably safe investments are the Den- yer & Southwestern issues The bonds are quoted slightly under par. The is- sue Is $5,5O0, 900, on which annual inter- est at per cent. Is S275,000. As the company earned more than $G50, 900 net in eight months to July 31, the mainte- nance of the bond interest is beyond any reasonable doubt and the bonds are further protected by sinking fund. The dividends on the $2,000,000 preferred call for only $10o,000 and the excess of earnings here is still large. At current prices the stock nets the purchaser over IA per cent, paying per cent. The common now receives per cent, which amount was earned clear during the eight months to July S1. The holder at current quotations receives over IT per cent on his investment.

FOUND DEAD IN A BARN.
James Donohue, We'll Known Dowl
 Town Character.

James Donohue, a We'll Known Down l Town Character. James Donohue, man about fifty l three years of age, who had no regular 1 place of abode but spent much of his time around the Yale mission on Franklin street, was found dead yester- day morning In passageway leading into barn at No. 454 East street. The passageway slopes and on each side of 1t are stone walls It is thought that Donohue started Into the barn to sleep Saturday night and stumbled and fell striking his head against the stone wall. It is thought that this blow pro- duced a concussion of the brain and that not having medical attendance death resulted.
 Acting Medical Examiner Dr. Eliot was notified and upon examining the body found that there was a confusion on the head. This led him to believe that Donohue had fallen against the wall and sustained concussion of the brain.
 Donohue had lived for some time about the Yale mission and was taken care of there by the students. Previous to that he was at a mission which was conducted on Grand avenue near the head of Artizan street but which has been suspended for some time. While he was at that mission he braced up and did not drink, but after the mis- sion was suspended he again began It,iy, it,r, ,V,I gi, ,1,,,, heavily except for the time he was at Yale mission.

Durango and Albuquerque Railroad

WThe proposed railroad between
Durango and Albuquerque which
is receiving so much attention from
Denvers s press if built would prove
a paving investment to its project
ors from the start and would great
" benefit Colorado and this terri
tory, The Denver Republican of
recent date says:
The proposed railroad to connect
Durango in thisstate withAlbuquer-
que in New Mexico, if completed,
would be the fulfllment of dream
in which the people of those towns
have indulged for years. AS a prac-
ticai project it has been discussed
almost ever since the wealth OF the
San Jaun give rise to Durango, and
the new city Of Albuquerque was
founded along the Santa Fe railroad
within a mile or so of the ancient
adobetown of the same name, events
which occurred about nineteen years
ago.
The entire northwest quarter of
New Mexico is practically without
a railroad, The San Juan line Of
the Rio Grande runs for a short
distance south of the Colorado line,
but even there it is clearly a Colo
rado road. The proposed road
would cut that part of New Mexico
almost directly from the northwest
The San Juan County index. (Aztec, N.M.) 1890-19??, 1900-06-22

ern to the southwestern corner. Tt
would open up a country of which
few people have anything other
than vague information. 1t is a
high table land, the geological
strata Of which lie nearly fiat
There is, therefore, little reason
to believe that it will be found to be
rich in mineral, except, it may be,
along its boundaries. There is
no question, however, that it is a
good stock country, and its valleys
are adapted to agriculture, and espe-
cially to the cultivation Of fruit.
The advantages Of the proposed
road would lie chiefly in the fact
that it would connect two product
i've regions. The agricultural and
horticultural products of the Rio
Grande valley could find a market
in Durango and San Juan, if they
should ever increase in quantity
beyond the home demand. It
would be a highway placing Du-
range in closer touch with the outer
world, and giving it some benefits,
no doubt, in the form Of lower
freight rates. In winter, when
the snow sometimes blocks commu-
nication across the Conejos range,
this route could be used for the
transportation of passengers, freight
and the mails.

with only a portion Of the usual
bountiful harvest. It was one Of
the of years"
No data is at hand for accurately
estimating the amount or acreage
OF the products Of La Plata valley
for 1900, but it is certain that the
figures if presented would astonish
the average citizen. Alfalfa is the
king Of crops in that valley, and the
first cutting, now being gathered,
is about the banner yield of the
rivers history The lay Of the
land and the quality of the soil are
such that when conditions are right
the production in every line is tre-
mendous. OF fruit there is certain
to be an immense amount. and the
acreage of orchard is quite large.
Indeed, there is no dark cloud in
the sky Of La Plata prospects for
1900. At which we all rejoice and
are exceeding glad.
