Dear Sir;-You ask how many square
feet II gallon will cover. Depends on
condition OF building.
There IL great deal OF lying on this
point. The stock claim OF lying paints
three hundred square feet, two coats.
It's lie, as rule.
Devoe covers 800 TO 600, our agents
think. We think 800 too low and 900
too high; though doubtless, they both
occur.
How much the other paints cover IL
equally doubtful; we guess 100 10 400.
The truth is found In another COM
parison. Devoe il all paint, true paint,
strong point and full-meas2re; the
the others in general are, at the :. ast
diluted, aduterated, and dshort-Ineasure
They cover according 10 body and

no body TO them. Go by Devoc.

New Philippine Coins.

r. g. Miller received from q friend
in Philsdelphia last Fridsy complete
set Of the coins recently struck at the
mint in that city under an act OF con-
gress for use in the Philippine Islands.
The set consists Of peso, or dollar. a
fifty cent piece, a dime, nickel, a penny
and half penny the two latter being
Of copper. With the exception of the
nickel and those of q smaller denomi-
nation the coins all have milled edges
and are Of the same weight and fineness
as United States money of the same
value. The stamp on the coins is very
clear and distinct; on the diverse con-
tanning female figure in classic cos
tune standing beside an anvil, at the
foot of which there is an overfiowing
cornucopia. In the distance is an active
volcanoe, suggesting the mountainous
character of the islands. The reverse
side Of the coin shows the shield of the
United States from which an eagle is
rising. The coins are in some respects
simpler and more artistic in design

Sentences for Lie.

John Devine, sentenced to prison for
life from otero County for attempting
to wreck Santa Fe passenger train
between La Junta and Fowler, was re-
ceived at the penitentiary last Thur
day and At once entered upon his long
term OF imprisonment. Deviae's crime
10 one OF the most reprehensible Of
which he could possibly have been
guilty and no sympathy is expressed for
the punishment that has been meted
out to him by the courts. He endeavor-
ed TO ditch a night passenger train con-
tanning more than 200 people, and
almost succeeded in carrying out his
tiendish purpose, Had the Train been
derailed II would have beeii hurled into
q deep arroyo and smashed into kind
ling wood and ali Of its passengers
either killed or manned for life. II was
almost miracle that the engineer was
able to stop the train in time to pre-
vent the disaster, and as il was the
brave fellow was killed in the effort to
avoid It,. Devine is typical tramp
and IL is universally agreed that the
punishment he has received was amply
justified by the crime OF which he is
guilty.

Packing Ice at Penitentiary.

An excellent quality of natural ice,
eight inches in thickness, is being
packed BY the penitentiary authorities
for next summers use. The ice comes
from the pond in Grape Greek canon
and is as clear rs a crystal and of a
very compact character. Its thickness
will be a matter Of surprise to many
people who are under the impression
that the weather has not been sufficient
ly cold to produce ice Of a quality fit
for packing, but the fact that the pond
has been frequently flooded from the
Deweese, Dye ditch will probably offer
4 solution OF the problem The peni-
tentiary ice houses have a storage
capacity Of well on to thousand tons,
more than half Of that amount being
necessary to supply that institution
during the summer months.

THE END.

Note by the Edftor.-Sir Edwin casko-
den's history differs in some minor details
from other authorities OF the time. Halls
chronicle says Sir william Brandon. ia
ther of Charles. had the honor of being
killed by the hand of Richard Ill him
self at Bosworth Field. and the points
wherein his account of Charles Brandon's
life differs from that of Sir Edwin may
be gathered from the index TO the l5is
edition OF that work. which Is as follows:
Charles Brandon. Esquire, Ia made
knight. created yiscount Lysle. made
duke OF Sufolke. goeth to Paris to the
Iustes doeth vaiiantly there. returneth
into England. he is sent into Fraunce TO
fetch home the French quene into Eng
land. He maryeth her. and so on until he
dyeth and is buryed at wyndesore-

icles of the ONCE of master of dance. In

everything recommended by my

from dull pain just across the small
of my back was Just as remotely in
the distance the day went to Hunter
Paimer's Drug store for Doan's Kidney
Pills as when i commenced the ex-
pertinent. When the attacks were in
the acute stage, l couldn't sit still on
Aocount of nervousness and WAS COM
PEELED to get up and walk around for
the slight assistance shis mAkeshift
offered. As IL backache was not sufii-
cient to annoy the ordinary mortal.
there WAS added, and understand it
either sure indication of weakened
or overexcited kidneys, trouble with
the kidney secretions. More out Of
curiosity than expecting any benefit l
commenced the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills and I can guarantee that II the
first box had not relieved me never
should have continued the remedy
