Another Metz Cuh.

There is a new revelation of faith
science. 1t comes from a Denver
prophet of occult influences. He brings
a gospel for the lazy. He has a new
plan of physical culture. He calls it
mental gymnastics" He exercises
his subjects by telepathy, or sugges-
tion. He says: "They don't have to
exercise at all-simply to think-and
by the power of my mind l can de-
velop their muscles. / follow the
same plan with women as with men.
Nothing could be more simple. Ample
physical exercise can be taken by SIM
ply thinking that you are walking a
long distance or running a footrace or
turning double somersaults. All that
you have to do is to "think"-the pro-
professor of mental gymnastics does
the rest. 1t is big thing.

Prof. Moore and TIE Hail
.Sbooferr.

Professr Willis L. Moore, chief of
the weather bureau. appears to be
somewhat irritated because American
horticulturists, as result of the re-
ports submitted by our consul at
Lyons, are asking why this govern
ment does not adopt the French
method of cannon-fring for the pro-
lection Of orchards from hail and
frost.
In statement which he issues as
reply to the numerous inquiries re-
ceived concerning the matter. Pro-
fessor Moore says the idea that the at
mosphere can be bombarded into sub
mission to mans demands in this di-
rection is a popular delusion '.as re-
markable as is the belief in the effect
of the moon on the weather." adding
that ''the uneducated peasantry of
Europe seem to be looking for some
thing miraculous" "They would
rather" he says, believe in cannon
aiding as means of protection, and
spend on it abundance of money, time
and labor, than adopt the very simple
expedient of mutual insurance against
losses that must inevitably occur"

slotted

slotted to conform with the
row of teeth in the comb, with
hinge at one end to attach it to the
side of the comb frame. The plate is
provided at its opposite edge with
crimp extending either part way or
clear across, which serves to lock the
plate against the back of the comb
while the latter is in use. When it is
desired to clean the currycomb slight
pressure of the thumb on the locking
crimp will allow the plate to spring
clear of the teeth, and assume its nat
ural curve again, at the same time
ridding itself of the dirt and hair
which it has dislodged from the teeth.
The best feature Of the improvement
is the curving of the cleaner so that
it will fly clear of the teeth without
the necessity Of pulling it free with
the hand. The inventor says it will
be only question of time when all
currycombs are made with the i'm
provement he has invented.

Eight-Hour Day" Beginning life as a
bobbin boy in wooden mill, he has
devoted half a century to forwarding
the cause of organized labor. He has
written several books on labor sub
jects, and in 1886 was the labor candi-
date for Mayor of Boston. In 1885 he
was chosen as arbitrator of the great
Boston street car strike, and by his in
fluence succeeded in settling it. Hs
was born in Amesbury, Mass, in 1887,
and his father was a great friend OF
the poet Whittier and of other anti
slavery leaders. In honor of his fiftieth
anniversary as a labor leader grand
banquet will be given in his honor
either in New York or Boston, the date
and place not having been yet selected.
1t is assured that hundreds of men
prominent in the work of organized

current between the slightly separated
points of the carbons, and to main
tain these points in proper relation

Eastman, the head of the Holy Roll

years ago, he became religious de-
votee and organized the strange church
which now has several thousand
members. Their services are usually
held out of doors, and preferably on a
hill top. and are marked by much
shouting, leaping. and kissing among
the men. They practice "divine heal
ing" and claim to have made most re-
markable cures. At almost all of their
meetings people who claim to be help
less paralytics and bed-ridden rheu-
matics are prayed over and annointed
with oil. afterwards throwing away
their crutches and rising from their
beds to join in the wild shouting and
leaping which go on all around them.

THE CAPTAIN PROGRESS DENIES
THE FL PASO HERALDS STATEMENT.

The Ell Paso Herald of the 23rd
inst. contains a half column ar
ticle about the conditions of the
Captain coal fields and the Coal
Company's intentions with refer
ence to it's future operations etc.
The Herald's article is given in
full on the first page of this pa
per, and if the statements therein
are not correct the coal company
is doing itself a great injustice
by not contradictingit. Concern
ing the Herald's article the Capt.
tan Progress of the oath, says:
"The fallacy of the Herald's
statements is too apparent to need
mentioning were it not for the
fact that there are many who are
not familiar with the methods of
the Ell Paso news mongers. The
statement is not only false but it
is malicious mis-statement of
facts. Had the Herold taken the
pains to ascertain the truth il
would have found that the reverse
is true for the New Mexico Fuel
Company is at the present time
getting out more coal than it has
at any previous time in the histo-
ry of the Captain coal fields, and,
this too, with a much smaller
force than was formerly employ
ed. This does not look much as
if the coal is playing out, but on
the other hand shows that the
coal is increasing in quantity and
improving in quality as depth is
gained"

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
THURSDAY MAY 80, 1901.
MCKINLEY FOR THIRD TERM.


Chancey Depew is advocating
third term for President Nc
Klnley. It is an unwritten law
of this government that two terms
is the presidential limit, and it
Will now take a greater influence
than all the Depews in the nation
to dethrone the two term custom.
The argument advanced by this
statesman is that SO many ques-
tiOns of national moment have
arisen out Of the nations wars
and consequent foreign possess
s1ons during Mr.. McKinley's pres
ldentlal terms that it would be
dangerous to put him out until
these difficulties are settled. The
end of our difficulties in the set
Elements growing of our late wars
and through the requirement of
our foreign possessions promise
to be continuous, at least the end.
under most favorable conditions
can never be reached during Pres
ident McKinley's natural life; and
that he is any more competent to
cope with national complications
than many others who are avail
able as presidential material is
not believed by the people, and
should he try to reach the presi-
dency a third term, the result will
be as it was with Grant, his race
will be ended in the nominating
convention.
There have been questions of
much greater concern before the
nation than Mckinley has ever
witnessed or is likely to witness,
so far as the preservation of the
country's prosperity and happi-
ness is concerned. And it is gem
orally believed that the country
IS amply able to take care of itself,
and that presidents, like soldiers
may be produced as rapidly as
conditions demand them. But if
the personal and financial inter-
ests of Mr.. McKinley's friends
are the national questions referred
to by Senator Depew, and if the
welfare of these interests are nec-
essary to the life and preserva-
tion of our national government,
then a third term may be neces-
Sary; otherwise we must conclude
that there is plenty of presiden-
tial timber outside of Canton, or
even the entire state of Ohio, who
may be trusted to steer the ship
OF state through all kinds of
weather.

If BRYAN HAD BEEN ELECTED.

A Chaves county sheep man
was mourning his fate to some
companions one day last week.
He said that he was offered four
teen cents for his 1900 clip, but
being sure of McKinley's election,
he refused the offer and stored
his wool. For year he has paid
interest on money to run his
focks, insurance and storage on
his wool and can now get but
seven cents. Nobody was blamed
in the matter at all, it was simply
fate that brought it about. But
bystander was heard to remark
after the wool grower passed on,
IF Bryan had been elected how
that man would have been cuss-
ing him and the whole democratic
party for something of which
they had nothing to do. "-Ros-
