We notice that Shakespeare is
often (mis) quoted as saying: 1.-THE
good that men do lives after them;
the evil is oft inferred with their
bones. 1t were we'll if the facts
were as SO stated. 1t would illus
trate more the charity of men. But
this philosopher stated the facts the
other way: "The evil that men do
lives after them: the good is often
inferred with their bones" Men
seem to like to remember the fail
ings of their fellows and to forget
their kindnesses. If one says a
good word of you ii makes no last
ing impression but if he says a
mean thing of you he makes life
long enemy,
The Hon. William Pitt Peckham
has received as a present from his
daughters, the Misses Laura and
Lucy Peckham, handsome and
valuable Fedora Panama hat, made
in Porto Rico. 1t came unfinished
and he has had it completed at c.
E. Blacks in Saratoga by an ex-
perienced workman from New York.
The Misses Peckham are teachers
in the Wis. State Normal school at
River Falls, and while they are
spending their summer in sight-see-
ing the new United States territory
in the Greater Antilles, their father
is representing the village of his
birth and early years. Daily Sara

The friends and relatives of w.
E. Rudesill living in this vicinity
will be interested in the following
item from a Mobile, Alabama, paper
of the 7th instant:
w. E. Rudesil1, band-saw filler of
the East Side Lumber Company,
while doing bench work on saws at
the mills, met with an accident. A
band saw fell and struck his right
arm, severing an artery in the wrist,
causing great loss of blood. Owing
to the distance from the city MIR.
Rudesill was in much danger of his
life before reaching a physician.
Mr.. Rudesill was brought to the
city in row boat, taken to a physi-
clan and the artery secured in time
to save his life. 1t will be some
time before he will be able to return
to his work. His home is at Ham
mond, La, where his family now
resides.
1t seems, in our notice of the pub
lie school faculty last week, we did
not state the facts quite correctly.
Instead of there having been four
designations there were five resigna-
tions and there are five new teach
ers, Misses James, Daniels, Hend-
erson, Burnett and Krogstad being
succeeded by Misses Ames, Evans,
Iverson, Armstrong and Snodgrass,
spectively. There will be the
same number of teachers as last
year. Last year both Miss Daniels
and Miss Kennedy gave half time to
High school work and half time
to grade work. The growth of
the High school and prospective in
crease in enrolment this fall make
it necessary for Miss Evans, who
succeeds Miss Daniels, to give full
time to High school work The
change is merely REIMBURSEMENT
of work, not an increase in the num-
Der of teachers over last year. A
teacher was added to the number of
the corps last year.

Some of the business men of the
city remark that the boys endanger
the store windows by the use of
sling shots after sparrows and the
City Marshal wants the boys to de-
sist from the use of their sings on
the business part of Main street.
No objection is made to their kill
ing the sparrows, and they are rath-
TO be encouraged in doing so. In
some places bounty is given for
killing them, but there is too much
danger to the big windows by the
use of sings along the business
blocks.

HYDES SOLD OUT.
New York Syndicate has Purchased tEe
Mercantile interests.

A deal has just been consummated
whereby the Hyde Exploring Expedi-
tion's stores in Albuquerque and in
New York City have been sold to
New York City syndicate headed by J.
w. Benham. The Hydes have also
disposed of their store at Pennington
and the reason given for the sales Is
that they want to be relieved of the
care and responsibility attached to the
business. A. B. McGaffey, who has
managed the Albuquerque store, is in
terested in the syndicate and will re-
main at the head of the store.
The action on the part of the Hyde
Exploring Expedition, of which Mr.. B.
T. E. Hyde of New York is the head,
does not mean that the expedition will
no longer be identified with the terri
tory of New Mexico. The Hydes will
in the future devote an increased
amount of money and more time to
archaeological and chronological re-
search in the southwest, unhampered
by the necessity of attending to
large mercantile trade. Scientific work
is hereafter to be the object of the ex-
pedition.
The new head of the company Is not
unknown in the southwest. From 1885
to 1895 he was in the cattle business in
Arizona and he later had large curlo
store at Phoenix.
