COFFEE FLYERS.
Can Be One il You Stick to II

The coffee habit is a. injurious as
other drug habits of the same nature.
Don't think so? Well, dig in and see.
The system Graves a stimulant more
and more until finally the victim wakes
up.
When we are as fortunate as Mr..
James ID. Kimble, of Northampton,
Mass, to realize that we have got TO
stop or the penalty will be severe, il is
a little startling at first to consider.
He says: Il was an inveterate coffee
drinker during twenty years of my life.
THE first ten years experienced no
i'll effects from the coffee but its insid-
ious working brought forth a train of
evils later on. / became very nervous
and irritable. in fact felt all the time

ness gradually disappeared; the brail
became clear, the loss of strength ant

ually strengthened. Life seemed one,
more worth living and the continue,
use of Postum has not disappointel
me. To me coffee proved slow poison

A Substitute for Coal.

This is the latest idea in the fuel
line, and 1t is said to be a success.
Place a soft brick in a receptacle con-
tanning kerosene. and when it has OBJ
sorbed a sufficient quantity of the
liquid you have a fuel that will burn
in a stove for a long time. One
"brickful' will cook a dinner. An ex-
pertinent made to show the exact cost
proves that n brick will absorb in
a half hour three-fourths of a pint OF
oil. That ignited will make a hot fire
for twenty minutes. At the beginning
the combustion is rapid. The conclu
sion is that 2 cents worth of oil will
cook an ordinary dinner, and a stock
of bricks soaked in oil will heat a room
or do all ordinary work.

~ Fergusson's False Charges


stricting any class of lands in this ter
ritory to 100 acres. He has stated this
publiclya number of times since he left
congress and has given as q reason for
it being retained that he had to do it
or the bill would not have passed at
all; and now he attempts in a public
speech TO take credit for it as q saga
cious measure for the benefit of poster
ity.
1t is true that we urged Mr.. Rodey
to have this bill amended so that 25,-
900 acres of land might be sold to any
one person, association or corporation,
end the commissioner of public lands
in mis- last report to the legislature
urged that it be done. and anybody
| who knows anything about New Mex
leo lands must see the necessity of 1t.
| as well as taking off the restriction of
| one section, being the limit which any
| one person, association or corporation
may lease.
Mr.. Fergusson's statement that this
board or any member was to profit in
any manner by the sale of these lands
is so absurd on its face as to hardly
require refutation. Why should any
one pay more than the minimum price
of SO per acre when the law gives him
the right to purchase at that price!
Why should a syndicate or anyone else
ray the members of the board 20 cents
an acre for selling these lands which
the law says they a have at 50? II
the lands were worth 81 an acre and
the board should sell at SO then there
might be some plausibility in this
statement. But the board, as its rec
ords will show, has W asked more
than SO per acre.
This charge of malfeasance in Office
has been made against the governor
who is a member of this board, to two
presidents of the United States, to ont
secretary of the interior and to TIVE
senate committees, each and all o
whom exonerated him from TIL
charges, although they were presentet
and urged against him with all thu
venom that bitter jealousy and hat
could ~engender. The charges agains

IL is a pity that a man of Mr.. Fergus
sons ability. who has done so much
for the territory in obtaining its splen-
did land grant from congress should
fall so low as to deliberately lie and
Lesmear the of all the members
of this board as well as the reputation
of the territory which he once so ably
represented in congress and sink his
reputation as a man of honor and a
gentleman in the hope of gaining a few
votes for himself by false pretenses.

And with it they are charging and
improving their buildings without any
drain upon the treasury. Most Of the
lands selected by the United States
commission for the institutions were
timber lands, it believing that this
class of land was more valuable and
would find more ready sale than arid
pasture land. But the board so far
has only been able to sell 1881 acres
in the Sacramento mountains, which
sale has resulted in the receipt of the
money price therefor, but has largely
contributed to the building of the Ell
Paso Northeastern railroad, and Ma
mogordo & Sacramento Mountain rail-
road, the i%ourishing cities of Alamo
gordo and Cloudcroft, and was one of
factors in bringing the Rock Island in
to the territory. The board has siren
uously tried to sell other timber lands
at the same price. but without avail

building of the Albuquerque Eastern

Chlckasha people do not lose q

obstruct the passage of the Moon

He gives a detailed account Of how the game

ponies should be trained and ridden, how they
should be bitted and bridled and treated. There
are a mass of polo statistics and records Of all

the world, with the addresses of their secre-

complete alpha betical list of all polo ponies

Polo is a game for middle life as well as for
Youth thinks Captain Miller. Even good horse
r7auship Is not a necessary prerequisite for
learning it. He gives comforting assurance
that the fact that man knows little about

should be the other way, for nothing improves

commonly held. that ii is very dangerous
