ITO President A. A. Robinson of
the Mexican Central railroad is due
most of the credit of developing the
railroad interests of the west" said T.
X. Jones at the Orndorff. He made
personal observations of all the west
when he was with the Santa Fee road
and most of the western Santa Fee
lines and the Colorado roads were
built on his recommendations and ad-
vice. 1 hauled Mr.. Robinson to Pueblo
the first time he ever visited that city.
l had been to Las Animas. then the
| western terminus of the Santa Fe, to
buy a carriage and team of horses.
| This was over twenty years ago. l
bought my carriage and had started
back to Pueblo when / overlook a fine
| looking fellow riding a gray horse
about twenty miles out of Las Animas.
He looked like a good fellow and l
asked him to ride with me as the sun
was boiling hot He accepted and We
had an enjoyable trip. He introduced
himself and told me all his plans for
building roads in the west. l had then
been over all the country from Ell
Paso to Denver and Salt Lake and told
him all l knew of the country. He
seemed pleased with the outlook and
asked me the best route to FL PaSo.
told him and soon afterwards the San
Ia re was DullI lHIO ILLS city oNci thc
exact route l had laid out to him. We
were several days together and learn
ed for the first time the enormity of
the task of building a railroad across
the continent He was equal to any
task and had no trouble in financing
the great scheme. He was with the
Santa Fe foryearS and made it the
railroad it is today. He is now max
ing the Mexican Central one of the
great roads of the country and is max
| ing it pay where other men failed.
Robinson likes good company and is
one of the most clever fellows L ever
Travelled with. We had everything we
wanted to eat on the trip and plenty
of ice and cold drinks and the trip
was a very pleasant one. ! have met
Robinson several times since and he
never fails to refer to that long drive
over the mountains of Colorado.

The consolidation of railroads over
the country and especially in the west
| is not going to have a bad effect of
the public welfare" said F. b. Hough-
| ton of the Santa Fe. Just as many
men will be required to operate them
and no changes will be made in the
lines. There will be a few short lines
built as a result of the consolidation to
make better connections and even
more men will be required than at
present. 1t is my opinion that it
means a great deal for FL Paso for
most all the great railroads will have
to have Representatives in this section
| and they will have to work out of this
| city. Eastern roads cannot hope to
get business from the roads here if
these roads have eastern connections
that are owned by the same compan-
les and to get any of this western
business they will have to put men
here to get it. This is a day of con-
solicitations and combinations and if it
has ever hurt commerce or the public

at the Sheldon. "On the Santa Fe
train yesterday were sixteen eastern
capitalists going to Chihuahua and
Parral to lok at mines. They were all
interested in bringing eastern money
here and seemed pleased with the re-
ports from Mexico. This is only one
days arrivals and there is almost as
many every day. l have just come
from Chicago and you would be sur
prised at the number of people there
who want western investments. Mon
ey is plentiful in all the eastern cities
and mining seems to be the principal
thing they want l predict that Mex
leo will develop rapidly within the next
few years and if Ell Paso will make the
proper effort a great deal of this mon
ey will find a home here"
Ell Paso is getting too large for one
fire department to cover" said a citi-
zen this morning. 1.-The horses can
far end of the city without hurting
them and it takes too long to make
the rum The city council should pro-
vide light hose cart station some
where in the north part of the city,
another on chihuahua street and still
another on Myrtle street near the Tex
as and Pacific track. light hose
cart could get to the fire in many cases
and put it out while the main COM
pany is making the run. Ell Paso is
not a village and the council should
be made to see this. The idea of one
company covering the whole city and
that from the station is out of the
question and should be improved

There was a forward move in both
the services; Rev. Brewer gave an in
teresting and very profitable Bible
reading. He then preached one of the
strongest sermons Of the series. On the
subject, THE Strength of Weakness.
At the close of the sermon he sang
a beautiful conservation song. I'll be
What You Want Me to Be, Dear Lord. "
During the singing nearly every one
in the house acceded to the proposition
of complete dedication. and most of
those who did not, knelt requesting
prayer that they might be able to at
tain thereto.
In the evening. after several stirring
gospel hymns. the evangelist sang the
solo. Peace. Sweet Peace" and follow
ed this by another strong sermon on
excuses for not being a Christian
weighed and found wanting"
The following. among other excuses
were Observation-Disclosures difficulties

stand Hypocrites in the church, l

At the close of the service there were
two professions and one addition to
the church. Others are waiting to
unite with the church.
The services will continue through

knew it was all right, for he had stud

The human body is divided into
three parts, the head, the thorax and

contains the heart and the vital organs
and the abdomen the vowels, Of which
there are five, a, e, 1, and q, and

 The Empire Style.
 The empire style continues to hold its sway over the destlnies of women of fash ion, and this style is all the rage. Wide wristbands of waterproof satin material, clouted with steel or with gold bees, are fastened with broad buckles like those of old soldiers belts, with eagles with out spread wings and laurel wreaths round the plaques. Then there are ribbon wristbands with double clasps and plaque chased all over. Let me also mention some charming wristbands embroidered in monochrome on a gold ground In the empire style. The front

cherche style goes with various costumes. Everything lies in matching the ground material. Sunshade handles are of moderate length and continue to be very elaborate Colored enamels and cut crystal enriched with precious stones are the prevailing note of the season. There are thousand small refnements introduced In everything one wears, and never did luxury and research extend to the details of the wardrobe as they do today.
 While modern creations are extensively utilized. ancient fashions are also retained. For instance, the reticule, which was for merly an accessory to a visiting costume, Is at present indispensable at the theater. It Is presented to us in the long f1attened form of past days, surmounted with marvel ous decorations. Some are of velvet en,- broldered with steel beads, and clasp of steel completing the general effect. Others, of rainbow colored beads, look as though they had been found in the rosewood chif- fonier of a far distant "Tante Aurore.' What completes the illusion is the return to the gold-mounted lorgnon, finely chased, like those carried by the "Incroyables" and "Meryelleuse' of the eighteenth century. They have the merit of being infinitely less cumbersome than the tortoise shell, ''face mains,'' and they answer the same purpose. Moreover, the art of the "modelard" and the chaser finds material for masterpieces, and have admired handles of rare perfection and so artistic in conception as to make one think of the masters of the Italian renais- sance.
 The lorgnette also is made pretext for de- lightful faneies enamels, miniatures, tor toise shell, pearl, Martin varnish and the tenderest porcelains, beautifully decorated, make it an object of rare luxury, and at

 The palatial porcarium In EIberon consists of finely constructed house, with hardwood floors and fancy wall-hnishings. Within the home Is large, shallow pool, with cement bottom. The 'porkers" loll on beds of straw and iuhaIe the ozone from the blue Atlantic.
 1t Is said that during the fashionable bath ing-hour of the Eiberon cottagers the patri- clan pigs take to their private pools and bathe in Luxurious ease. A skylight, open above the pool, let's down lambert sunshine, and the clean coats of the ''porkers" glisten like the faces of wax dolls.
