THE NEW ENGINE.
Bio Piece Of Machiner" Reached the
Territorial Penitentiary Wednesday.

All y. y.
The fine new engine which was pur-
chased by the authorities of the terri
torial penitentiary from Capt. w. Il.
Dame and which has been at the Cash
Fentry mine near Cerrillos, arrived at
the institution about IL o'clock We'd
nesiay night. Early Monday morning
r. c. Garrett, superintendent OF the
brick plant. left for Cerrillos with sew
en- teams and eight convicts to take II
down and bring 1t to the institution.
No guard was taken along and the con-
victs were put on their honor with the
result that they worked like Trojans,
gave no trouble whatever, and did not
seem to even think of trying to es-
cape.
The big engine was taken down,
loaded on the wagons and brought to
the institution without the loss OF even
a bolt. The big piece of machinery is
being put in place at the institution,
and II will not be many days until II
will be put in service and the brick
plant started again. The rapid man
ner in which tnis work was done, the
behavior OF the convicts, the short
time in which the old engine has been
replaced, all is most creditable 10 all
connected with the AFFAIR.

Canning strawberries is largely
taking the place OF preserving these
days and the process by which the
fruit is preserved whole and almost
in a natural state is now adopted by
all progressive house wives. II is well
to bear In mind when canning that
none but perfectly sound and fresh
fruit should be used. The Jars should
be thoroughly heated before filling.
While being filled they should stand
on a folded damp towel to prevent
breaking. After being filled and the
tops screwed on, the jars should stand
in warm part OF the kitchen over
night where the air will not strike
them. When filling the Jars run sill
yer spoon handle around the inside
OF the jar to break the air bubbles and
then screw on the tops at once. To
can strawberries, allow a half.pound
of sugar to every pound OF berries,
