Mr.. Love returned yesterday from
a trip to Carlsbad.
Miss Childress stopped here yes
terday on her way to Hope. She re.
manned to take in the entertainment.
AS announced yesterday we are
pleased to report the meeting of the
Board of Managers of the Artesia Lii
barry Association. 1t was held at the
very comfortable country home Of
Mrs. Blair. She had taken great pains
to prepare for the enjoyment of her
guests n her care was fully appre-
ciated. The Board members are Mes
DANES Cleveland, Gilbert. Rogers,
Ross, Dyer, Kemp, Talbot, Atkeson,
Scholars, Blair, Majors, and j. Mack
Smith. Some of the members were
detained at home by sickness, and it
was thought best to defer all bust
ness until another date. The afternoon
was passed in a merely social way,
therefore. Mrs. Blair served delicious
refreshments and proved a thorough
ly pleasant hostess. This association
and has been of great value to the
town. There is a substantial case in
the postofice containing the books,
a few over two hundred in number,
and well selected. They are free to
the use of any n paying a fee of
one dollar yearly. There are now 46
managers as given above. The Off
GERS are: Mrs. Cleveland, president;
Mrs. Dyer, vice prest.; Mrs. Kemp,
secretary; Mrs. Scholars, treasurer.
1t is planned not merely to add more
valuable books this year, but to in
stall and furnish a cosy reading room.
| With the town only a little more than
a year old, such an institution as
this certainly speaks well of the cul-
ture and enterprise of the people.
The entertainment given by DR..
Norfieet's little daughters yesterday
evening was we'll attended in spite of
the threatening sky. The work of the
little girls was of its accustomed high
order, and the audience here as in
other places was delighted. Their
numbers on the program were as fol-
lows, the piano being used by Miss
Helen and the violin by Miss Catha-
rine:
Roses de Boheme (Kowalski), Hell
en- Nor1eet.
Souvenir de Sorrento Guido Papi-
nil, Catharine Norfleet.
La Papillon Lavallee), Helen Nor
fleet.
Maiden Song. (Musin), Catharine
| Norf1eet.
Helene CWollenhauple), Helen Nor
fleet.
Lily Dale, Fantasia, (Harris), Cath
arine Norfeet.
Revere (Original) Helen Nor1eet.
oFSp0 were also TWO HUMP
ers by Artesia people. Misses Yeargin
and Majors had arranged a pretty
duet, Summer Time in Dixie" and
it was sung in a very sweet way. Mr..
John Majors gave a little impersona-
ton that was warmly received and
his selection given in response to the
hearty encore was as thoroughly en-
joyed. All of the selections given by
the Misses Norfleet were highly ap-
preciated, but two particularly so.
These were Lily Dale by Miss Catha-
rine and the charming composition
of Miss Helen. These received enthus
iastic recalls, the violin responding
with Dixie and the piano with a
catchy light selection. Many compli-
ments and congratulations were re-
ceived by all the participants. Thanks
are to be given DIR. Rhodes for the
use of his fine new upright piano.

pARAauAYAN REVOLUTION.
New Government is Formed - Insur-
gents Ask Recognition.

cablegram from Buenos Ayres last
night says: An artillery engagement has
been fought between the San Jocomino
battery Of the Paraguayan army and
body of revolutionists. in which the latter
succeeded in dislodging the guns of the
government force The losses on either
side are not stated.
There has been no bombardment OF
Asuncion, the capital OF Paraguay, since
last reports.
The insurgents have established a pro-
visional government. with the capital at
villa del Pillar, 112 miles from Asuncion.
and have nominated General Ferreira. their
leader for president and Gonzalez Novero
for vice president. Four secretaries also
have been named. One of these. Deputy
Soler has started for Rio Janeiro and
other capitals to endeavor to secure the
recognition of the revolutfonists as bellig-
erents by the various governments. This
is taken to indicate that rapid operations
by the insurgents have been impeded
through the observation-disclosures of the capt.
tai. owing to the Intervention of the diplo-
matte corps at Asuncion.

The Case of the Florida.

The Japanese government reply to the
suggestion that the incident was compare
BILE to the Florida case. which occurred
during the American civil war. The Flor
ida, confederate vessel put into the
harbor Of Bahia, Brazil She was cut out
by federal vessels. The United States
government afterward apologized to Brazil
and paid an indemnity for the breach Of
neutrality.
The Japanese government draw clear
distinction between the two events. say
ing.
1.-THE neutrality of Brazil was perfect and
unconditional and Port Bahia was long
distance from the seat of war, whereas
the neutrality of China is imperfect and
conditional. The port Of ChefoO Is In close
proximity to the zone of military opera
tons. The reports OF the Japanese and
Russian officers who took part in the
Chefoo incident agree that the Ryeshitelni
was the aggressor and the first to COM
mence the hostilities which resulted in her
capture. The fact would. the Japanese
government believe, deprive Russia of any
grounds Of complaint which she might
was otherwise in doubt In this respect the
case resembles the cases of the American
privateer General Armstrong and the Brit
ish ship The Anne. The case of the
Ryeshitelni Is in itself of trifiing import
ance. but involves a principle of para
mount interest.
Attitude of China.
Experience has shown that China has
taken no adequate steps to enforce her
neutrality laws. II In these circumstances
the Ryeshitelni could make Chefoo a har-
Dor of refuge, then the great ships of the
Russian navy might do the same and moth
ing would prevent those ships from fssu-
ing forth from their retreat to attack the
Japanese The necessity Of guarding
against such an eventuality was too COM
manding, too overwhelming to permit the
Ryeshitelni incident to stand as a prece-
dent.
1.-The end of this incident will not affect
in any way foreign commerce or disturb
the general situation in China, but Will
merely serve notice to Russia that she
must keep her engagements in the future"
