New Mexico, says the Hustler.
The prospect for the building of this
road during the next year are brighter
than ever and that Pennington is des-
tined to be the commercial hub of the
vast area named, is already manifest
from the remarkable amount of bust
ness now transacted here daily. How
ever, manufacturing is the crying need
of the hour. With all our superb ad-
vantages and magnificent opportuni-
ties, packing houses, tanneries cream
cries and a score of other industries
could thrive with our present markets
and cheap fuel. Melons and fruits,
the most luscious in all the world. po-
totoes and %cabbages, beans and all the
other varieties of farm and garden
produce, are abundant here and aid
much in cheapening the cost Of living
expenses.
Viewed from whatever point one
may, Pennington is in an exceptionally
fine condition today, and that condi-
ton is certain to grow better and bet
ter, year after year for an indefinite
period of time. The present and the

Must show 1t. Authority.

Attorney General GODDARD notified
the attorney for the American Book
company, which secured the contract
for 60 per cent. of the textbooks for
the public schools, that the state
charter board would require the
American Book company to establish
the fact that it was authorized to-
do business in the state of kansas,
and that no contract would be made
with it for supplying the new school
books until the. charter board had
passed upon this question. There is
no question but the American Book
company has been selling books in
this state for many years, but the
attorney general is of the opinion
that as the company has mo- head
quarters in Kansas the sale and con-
tract Is really made in Chicago or
some other city where the company
has headquarters.

FLOWERS AT FUNERALS.
They Are Not So Much in Use a.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Now
Made of Them.

The open barouclIe flied with
| flowers sometimes seen preceding the
| hearse at the head of funeral pro-
cession," said an undertaken, accord
ing to the New York Sun, contains
flower pieces too big to be put in the
hearse, some of which, at least, are
too big to stand up in a closed car
rage. So where there are many
large pieces they are sometimes all
arranged in an open carriage, max
ing display that never fails to at
tract attention.
'From this conspicuous display of
flowers, which is one most likely to
be seen at the funeral of person of
foreign birth or descent, the practice
changes down to no display at all, as
III the case of the far more numerous
funerals at which there are no flow
ers carried or only such as can be
laid upon the coffin or carried within
the hearse.
In some cases, where there are
many large flower pieces, they are
carried in a carriage with the top
half open to give room for things
that would not stand under the top
closed. But the more common prac-
tice when the flowers are so many
as to require a separate vehicle for
their transportation is to carry them
in closed carriage, with no display
at all. In many cases the flowers can
beplaced in the hearse; but nowadays
often when there are many flowers
there are carried to the cemetery
only such beautiful or appropriate
pieces as can actually be laid upon
the coffin itself.
ct used to be that all the flowers
received at a funeral were sent to the
cemetery and placed upon the grave,
to waste and wither, and they were
subject also to pilfering hands. Now
flowers that are in such form as to
be suitable for the purpose are, it
maybe, given away after the funeral
services to some institution; perhaps
some institution for children, where
instead of simply whiting and fading
as they would otherwise have done,
they contribute to the happiness of
the living.
while there are many flowers still
sent as funeral offerings, there are
not so many as formerly. The phrase
kindly omit flowers is literally in
terpreted and the sending of flowers
more and more confined to relatives
and immediate friends. While the
burial casket of to-day is made richer
and more costly than ever, the mod
ern tendency as to funerals is all the
time toward greater simplicity in
the public display"

A MINsTREL's LUCKY BANJO.
Brought Him Assistance When He
Was Reduced to the Verge of
Starvation.

The death recently of Billy West,
the negro minstrel, recalls the luck
that banjo brought to New York
boy who went to California in 1852 to
''get rich" in the gold mines. He was
Charlie Bensel, of well-knOwn fam
lily in this city, relates the New York
Tribune, and had learned the machin-
lists trade, as well as to play the banjo,
and he obtained position as assistant
engineer on a small steamer that went
around to the Pacific by way of the
Straits of Magellan. While lying in
the harbor of Callao, Peru, the vessel
took fire and'was destroyed, and those
on board saved only what they could
carry in their hands. Bensel and the
others subsequently reached San
Francisco by working their passages
on other vessels.
When young Bensel reached San
Francisco all he had in the world
were the clothes he had on and his
banjo, and after wandering about two
or three days in an unsuccessful
search for employment he became so
hungry that he concluded to get one
good meal at a restaurant and then
give "promise to pay" After eating
a couple of dollars worth in ore of
the tent restaurants he went to the
proprietor and told his story. The
proprietor was so impressed with Ben
sells truthfulness that he told him he
would trust him until he got enough
to pay his bill, but, observing that he
had banjo, asked him to play tune,
which resulted in his being hired to
play and sing negro melodies al the
door of the tent to attract custom.
Soon afterward he went into the mines
at Virginia City, where he succeeded
beyond his anticipations, but in cou-
pie of years he organized a minstrel
company, which became popular not
only on the Pacific coast, but also in
China, where it went on a tour and
where Bensel died. He had been asso-
eiated with Backus. Birch. Wambold,
Cotton, Coe and other Ministries. in
Guiding West, and before he died he
owned a large property in Sacramen-
to His start in life he attributed to
the banjo, which he had learned to
play when an apprentice boy in New
York
