THE POLICE COURT
Little Business DurinG Past Wssk..Few Ar.
rests on Minor Charles.

Business has not been particularly
rushing in police matters during the
past week, and the court and
officers have little to do but smile
on each other and hope for something
to turn up. While this state of affairs
may not be profitable to the officers, it
speaks well for the morals of our town
and is gratifying to the tax payers,
On the 22nd the four misdemeanor
charges filed against Robert Herring
ton were dismissed at the request of
the complainants and the absorbing
topic will be given rest until next
court time.
Thursday morning Marshal Oglesby
introduced to His Honor two natives
whose watery eyes and general woe-be-
gon appearance was sufficient to war
rant very recent engagement with
the "wine when it is read" They had,
the evening previous, been making
matters annoying in the neighborhood
Of Mr.. Stenson's meat market, and
were run in by the officer. Before the
court they promised to let the "vino"
alone for a while and were given light
sentences. Juan Rios paid his fine and
costs, but Sylvester Doran will live at
the expense Of the government for ten
days.
Bill, the colored porter of one of the
Silver avenue saloons, was sent Into
court Monday by one of the soubrettes
Of the tenderloin district, charged with
having forcibly deprived the lady OF
certain articles of wearing apparel.
The testimony for the prosecution was
not very damaging to Bill, but he went
upon the witness stand himself, and
did there round, unvarnished tale of
his whole course of love-" which was
so convincing Of truth and so damaging
to himself that the court was compelled
to hold him guilty, but for his honest
confession he was let off with a light
fine anl costs, and an admonition to be
more select in affairs Of love.

Flower Carnival.

La fiesta de las flores, which will be
held in Los Angeles on May 9Th, 7th, 9Th
and 9th promises to eclipse all other eff
forts made in the past by the fiesta
committee from the fact that President
Roosevelt and his distinguished party
will witness the floral parade. A most
novel and spectacular feature has been
added TO the programme this year. For
four consecutive nights, commencing
Wednesday May 9Th; the visitors will
be treated to one long Transformation
scene on wheels such as never before
has been presented and that is practi-
cally a creation of the Goth century.

With the soil, climate and every
thing favorable for raising this crop,
and knowing that celery grows to per-
fection here, why not raise It in guam
titles to warrant shipment in car lots?
For profit no better crop could be raised

We realize the Importance of your
question, Democrat, and thoroughly ap-
preciate your statement. No sweeter,
brittle, nor more palatable celery was
ever produced in Michigan than grows
right here in southern New Mexico.
The finest growth and the most delicious
ly favored celery the writer ever saw,
grew at Spring ranch, Lincoln county.
Roswell farmers are producing celery at
splendid profits and ali New Mexico can
do the same thing. 1t is a profitable
business. White Oaks Eagle.

YOUNG PEOPLES RALLY.
Rev. c. Z. ,. Ward Gave q Most Interesting
Address 10 . Lar6O AudIsAes.

Last Friday night the Rev. C. E. B.
Ward, Field Secretary Of the Christian
Endeavor Union Of Colorado, gave a
most interesting address in the Presby-
terian church. He took for his subject
"The Deepening of the Spiritual Life
and It's Effect on Christian Service" He
emphasized the great necessity Of
truer and deeper realization of the d.
vine presence. Discussing the question
Of service he urged that every Young
Peoples society have a good citizenship
committee. The object Of this COM
mittee was to study the laws of the
country, especially those of our terri
tory and town, to see what laws were
on the statute books. He urged this as
feature that would be attractive to
yonng men and women who were inter-
ested in the welfare of the state. He
spoke OF the present day boy and how
he should be dealt with, and H.
lustrated by referring to a teacher Of
psychology who, in order to test the
alertness Of his pupils used to ask some
rather abnormal questions. At one time
he turned to boy and asked quickly
If he could tell the time of
day by his nose. The boy replied: mo,
sir; mine is not running, perhaps yours
is.
It is evident that If Mr.. Wards ad-
vice was followed our young peoples
societies would be more vigorous and
interesting, Those who took the OPP
pOrtunity of attending this meeting
were amply repaid by the splendid ad-
dress given by Mr.. Ward. Silver City
enjoyed the services of Mr. Ward last
Sabbath and from there he goes to
Santa Rita. We hope to have Mr..
Ward with us again in the near future.

Signs Of Prosperity.

The condition Of the fraternal orders
OF any town or community indicate
to great extent the condition of
the business interests of the town and
progressiveness of the people.
When these organizations are doing we'll
and growing in numbers it is safe to
say that the community is in a prosper
Gus condition and that the people are
alive to the best interests of the place.
Taking this for a guide the condition Of
Deming is certainly better now than
ever before, as the fraternal orders are
now making rapid and substantial ad-
vancement. Last Saturday evening at
the regular bnisness meeting of the
A. O. u. W. % new members were
taken into the order and number Of
applications sent in for membership.
This growth is not confined to the A
o. U. W. as we are informed that other
orders are in an equally prosperous and
growing condition, while new lodge of
Red Men is being organized under the
direction Of Col. J. G. Albright with a
large number Of members.

quietly, showing that the company are
in earnest about the work and that they
intend to get the road in operation as

The completion of this road will
mean great deal to Deming as it will

There is a good portugal of human
nature in the above article and a word
of warning to other towns as well. MANY
times when there began to be a demand
for property in town and sales at
reasonable prices were made with ease
have people, in their anxiety to make a
little money, killed the goose that laid
the golden egg" by raising the price
out of reason, and would-be buyers
passed by and invested in other places
where the prices were more
reasonable. For the greater part,
prices in Deming have been reasonable,
and it may seem that there is no need
Of our sounding any warning now, but
human nature is much the same every
where and this spring the general pros
perity which is sending people here in
increased numbers to look for locations
will be a strong incentive to people
holding property to shove the price up
ward; to those we would say: Be care
ful not to overdo the thing better havo
nalf loaf than to lose the whole"

About II "A. m Monday our citizens
were startled by the fire alarm ringing
and rushed out to witness the blaze
which totally destroyed the Santa Fe
coal chute. The fire was supposed to
have started from sparks from an en-
gine and so quickly did it cover the
building after it was first noticed that
nothing could be done to save the build
ing, but the yard crew came at once
with the switch engine and took away
a string Of cars standing near the chute
this preventing the spread of the fire
to the cars in the yard. The loss was
considerable though not so great as
would have been the case had there been
storage bins in connection with the
chutes as is the case in mcst places
along the road. We are informed that
about three cars Of coal were destroyed
and one coal car.

Conner En- Route Home.

DR.. r. F. Connor, a prominent osteo-
path of Chicago, after a months So
journ at Haywood hot springs in Grant
county came in from the south this
morning and between trains was
pleasant caller at the Citizen office.
The doctor goes home thoroughly reju-
venated in health and ready to encount-
er again his big practice. He informed
the Citizen that Manager McDermott
intends to beautify the hotel plaza by
the planting Of trees, shrubbery and
the sowing Of grass, and will also
erect telephone line to connect the
resort with nearby station on the
Santa Fe railway.
Another move in contemplation by
Manager McDermott, " said the doctor
lis that guests stopping at the hotel can,
in veay short time, purchase railroad
tickets at the hotel and have their bag
gage checked to all points, thus saving
guests the annoyance of rechecking and
securing tickets at regular railway sta
tions." DR.. Conner says that j. H.

matism and disordered liver, has re-
turned to his home at Deming practical

At 1890 the alarm again sounded and
investigation proved that a small barn
and hay shed on the property of DR..
Michael was bnrning. This fire was
in position where it would have done
muchdamage if it had started to spread
to other buildings as the strong south
west wind would have driven it into a
thickly settled district but the prompt
and effective work of the fire depart
ment under the direction of chief Ches-
ter soon brought it into subjection and
the damage was comparatively small.
