A woman's Story.

The woman on the right Of the host
asked for the ioor-and got It, Of course.
Il know a woman now prosperous who
once turned her thoughts to suicide and
was saved by the infectious comedy Of a
dear little coincidence, long since gone to
her last reward.
This woman had written on small pa
pens In a western state and, full Of am
billion and really capable, she made her
way to Denver. But instead OF securing
a place on a daily paper she found herself
each day nearer the penniless condition.
In those times free lancing was unknown
in Denver. and she was desperate. At
last she was down to 80. Moody, almost
distraught In a whimsical moment, she
rushed on to the theater, spending 10 cents
for a rear balcony seat. Patti Rosa was
the attraction and Jolly Joe Cawthorne
was her support. The woman who had felt
that she must go to the theater and forget
or throw herself into Cherry creek laughed
until she cried and went home with a
sense Of cheer and determination that was
not to be depressed by an empty stomach.
Tho next morning she bought a good
breakfast and went to an ONCE known as
the Helping Hand, where strange women
could secure positions presumably on their
personal word and honor. The only thing
offered was a post as ho~usekeeper and the
woman OF pen and pencil jumped at It.
Fortunately her prospective employer was
a semi-invalid, and was as ready to jump
at help as the woman was at work.
she began her duties that same after
noon. and here was where the American
woman's ~adaptability shone forth Sho

THE SUNDAY CLOSING LAW.
Petition TO Governor 0ero Asking for Its Enforcement
without Discrimination Throughout the Territory.

A committee consisting of Hon. Ar
thur Seligman, Samuel G. Cartwright
and j. W. Akers, accompanied by At
torney A. B. Rerehan, yesterday pre-
sented to Governor Otero numerously
signed petition, calling attention to the
fact that the Sunday closing law is en-
forced in the First judicial district,
while common report has it that it is
not enforced in the other judicial dis
tricts, much to the detriment of Santa
Fe In particular and to the business in
terests of the First Judicial district in
general. The petitioners ask that 10 :
ernor Otero exercise his power over the
peace officers of the territory to urge
them to enforce the Sunday law as
strictly in one part of the territory as in
the other. Governor Otero promised to
take the petition under advisement and
to act in strict accordance with the pow
ers that the law confers upon him in
matters of this kind.

A TRIBUTE TO Mr.. CONWAY.
I Friend Of Education Reviews the Record Of the
County School Superintendent

| Santa Fe, February 95, 1909.
Editor of the New Mexican:
When man satisfactorily fills an of
tice to which he has been elected by the
people, it is not always best to wait un-
til he dies before any expression of ap-
probation is made concerning his serv-
| ices. The people of this city know
only too veil the condition of the pub
| lie schools here four years ago. At that
| time. when everything seemed dark and
dscouraging, John V. Conway was
elected a member of the Board of Edu-
cation. From that day to this his watch
word has been economy in expenses and
better schools The first two years he
was member, he was also the secre-
tary of the board At the close of his
secretaryship he presented to the board,
and for publication. as complete state
ment OF the receipts and distribution of
the school funds as was ever made by
an official of the organization
Mr.. Conway has been very faithful in
the discharge of his duties in attending
the meeting of the board when not sick
or out of the city, and much of the i'm
provement in the city schools during tho
past few years is due to his interest In
them and his untirng efforts for them.
He is now serving his second year as
county superintendent Of schools Last
summer under his supervision was con-
Quoted the largest, most interesting and
enthusiastic county normal ever held In
Santa Fe county, If rot in the entire
Territory. At the close of the Normal
was held one 81 the E Nst thorough and
systematic examinations ever held in
New Mexico. | am reliably informed
that when the report OF the examination
was given at IA me ting of the Board of
Education resolution was unanimously
adopted mplimenting Mr.. Conway on
the fair system and businesslike manner
in which the examinations had been con-
Quoted. am informed also that at this
same meeting, which was held last Sep
tember, Mr.. Conway presented resolu-
ton asking the Mayor to call spe ial
election to vote $4,000 worth of bonds
to erect school buildings suitable to the
present and future needs of the city.
Not only the city schools, but also the
schools OF the entire county, have made
great progress under his administra-
tion, and the educational outlook for
Santa Fe and the entire county Is much
brighter, and more promising than ever
before.
Mr.. Conway has certainly made good
official record for young man, and
these few lines have been written for
his encouragement and to assure him
hat all earnest and unsefish efforts to
ldvance the cause of education in this
'ity and county are appreciated by the
people.
