Capitol Building Commission.

The capitol custodian committee
has adopted extensive plans for the
Improvement of the capitol grounds.
Over 500 worth of ornamental shrubs
and trees have been purchased and
will be set out this spring. An addi-
tional number of hydrants and a lot OF
water pipe have been ordered n will
be used on the grounds in order to in
crease the water facilities for irriga-
ton and s%prinkling purposes as these
have been insufficient. The committee
has also decided TO sink a deep we'll,
from which the water will be pumped
by an engine in order that a plentiful
supply of the life giving fluid may be
ready for all purposes at all times.
Many repairs in the interior OF the
building have also been decided upon
and the second floor is to be strength
ened by the putting in of strong steel

and to pay for these needed improve
ments. Work thereon will commence

Caution!

This is not a gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to
purchase the only remedy universally
known and a remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine In the
world since 1868 for the cure and
treatment of consumption and throat
and lung troubles without losing its
great popularity all these years, you
will be thankful we called your atten-
ton to Boschee's German Syrup. There
are so many ordinary cough remedies
made by druggists and others that are
cheap and good for light colds perhaps,
but for severe coughs, bronchitis, Group
and especially for consumption
where there is difficult expectoration
and coughing during the nights and
mornings, there is nothing like German
Syrup. The 25-cent size has just been
introduced this year. Regular size, ii
cents. At all druggists. j. II. O'Rielly

Being Taken Throughout Territory.


Being Taken Throughout Territory.
Prof. +. A. Jones, well known as con
nected with the United States geolog.
ical survey, who formerly was presi.
dent of the New Mexico School OF
Mines, has been in the city for the pur.
pose of taking a mining census of all
the surrounding districts. Mr.. Jones
was given the work because of his vast
experience as a mining expert, and for
the reason that he is well acquainted
throughout the territory. He has an
der him Stuart Ellis, of New York,
and several other assistants, who are
helping him carry on the work. He
left yesterday for Santa Rita and from
there will go to Fferro, Hanover and
Pinos Altos. He will then return &c
Silver City and proceed to the Mogol
Ion district.
This work is very important to the
mining interests of the districts, and
as 1t is being conducted very carefully
will doubtless give most accurate in
formation to all desiring to know o.
mines in any state or territory. Tn,
results and statistics obtained will b,

upon application to the head offices of

beneficial in that it will render infor.
nation more available and will adver'
tise with accuracy, and without exag-
geration, the mines all over the United

boasted of any wealth which she does
not possess, this mining n will

HOW TO SWIM.
From the Outing.N

The first instruction TO the beginner
should show that the body will almost
float unaided and that the question Of
keeping the head above water is a mat
ter of balance rather than or muscular
strength. Once this is realized a large
part of the natural fear disappears, and
the primary requisites, ease and conf
dence are easily attainable, Then let the
lad paddle his own stroke. Most boys
who teach themselves TO swim begin with
the dog-paddle; and, however expert one
becomes, beating the water into foam still
gives a thrill of pleasure. The ordinary
breast stroke is a long step toward scien-
tific swimming. 1t gives enough speed
to be useful in case of emergency. and it
serves all the purposes of those TO whom
the water is a recreation. Furthermore it
has the advantage over all scientific
strokes, in permitting range of vision
wide as q searchlight
The main shortcoming of the breast
stroke is that the leg motion. though
quite like the straddle and push of a
frogs legs, is absolutely unlike any nor
NAL motion of the human frame. The
legs of a man are built for walking and
running. If, now, one turns the body on
the side, it becomes possible, instead Of
straddling, to open the legs scissors
fashion, and bring them together with
snap, a motion which calls into play the
muscles used in walking and running.
which are among the strongest of the
body. The result is a distant gain in
speed. The scissors-like leg stroke, in
fact. is the best possible and forms the
basis of all scientific strokes.

SWIM MING EQUINE POWER.

Ny friend Mr. w. A. Powell. propounds
a conundrum as to the swimming powers
of a horse, bringing up the question
whether or not a horse can swim and
carry a man on its back. He says: When
/ was in Mississippi 1 had something
sprung on me in regard to which Forest
and Stream ought to be able to give some
help. gentleman started it at the Bobo
place, bringing up the argument whether
or not a horse could swim with man
on its back. He said that no horse, or
at least none that he had ever seen,
could swim with a rider on its back, and
that he had seen it tried on a wager at
Meridian, Mississippi. fourteen different
horses from livery stables being tried, and
not one of them being able to keep his
head above water, although when the
rider got off the horse swan all right.
He also said that any man who had a
horse that could swim and carry rider
could make big pot of money by max
ing a trip to Meridian. 1 was not well
enough posted to go into the argument
very far. but I have surely been on
horse when l thought he was swimming
with me- although / am willing to admit
there may be two sides to the question.
Later Mr.. Powell wrote again regarding
this interesting question: Il have been
getting more information in regard to the
swimming power of horse and / am
going back to take a horse to Mississip-
pi one of these days and break that town
Of Meridian. where they say horse
can't swim with a rider
I think Mr.. Powell will be able 10 break
the town all right. If they are willing to
rack their judgment as above enunciated.
l presume a great many men have been
in swimming depth of water on horse
back and have noticed that il they sit
low and we'll back the horse can get
along OF course, IL Is much better to
slip off the horse. take the down stream
side of him. and hold on to the saddle
torn or to his name. Indian sometimes
held on TO the tail OF a swimming horse
OF course. the more OF the mans body
there is submerged the easier it VIII be
for The horse TO swim. 1t is not a proper,
bi.t possible thing for a swimming
horse to carry a man who may fairly
bo SAID to be upon his back.-Forest and
