They immediately made heir way into the cave, which proved to be of great dimensions, one of the apartments measuring 30 by 40 feet.
 George Reay. member of the par ty. soon made the discovery that the floor of the cave was covered with guano. The depth of the deposit is not vet known, but an estimate places the amount at 100000 pounds, whicf has a market value of s15 per ton.

William Campbell. in a moment of forgetfulness, passed a bottle of beer to one of the. Jail inmates yesterday and was caught in the act by Officer Chidester. who immediately placed William behind the bars. Tn Justice Browns court this morning the said Campbell was given a chance to ex- plain his act. His explanation was not satisfactory to His Honor, who placed a fine of s5f on Campbell as a gentle reminder rot to be so foolish again. The prisoner was given twen- ty-four hours to produce the coin or to serve five days in the city bastile Justice Brown, in his lecture to the prisoner. stated that several jail de Gveries had been effected of late through too easy communication with persons on the outside, and the practice must be stopped.

 After the fourth round Sullivan's ability came up in succeeding rounds, which was a surprise. He seemed to have taken a rev lease of life. but it was only flash in the pan, and it cid not prove any benefit to him. as he re- ceived more punishment without any chance of ultimate success. sThe con test, on the whole, was a success.
 Jimmy Britt was an interested spec tator at the ringside, and figuring on his chance to beat the champion featt- erweight. The general opinion of the sporting element. which has seen both men in action, is that Corbeti will be the favorite in the betting. and Britt, while able to give him great fight, will not prove to be a winner.

Frank Munch.
 For members of the Council in the several wards there Is not evident any spirited contest. In the First it is generally conceded that Ord and Ho- gan will be the nominees. In the Second, Allie Sowles and I. w. Wallace appear to be the favo- rites. In the Third Tom Devine and Tom Grady are being prominently mentioned.
 Tn each ward eight of the delegates nominated are to be elected, and the voter will vote for eight only. The voter will receive his ballot from the judges, and will proceed to the election booth and mark his ballot by scratch ing out the names he does not wish to vote for.
 After the primaries this evening a forecast of the probable nominees can be easily made.

ROADSIDE BEAUTY.

Highways Free of Weeds and Bush0s
 Increase Farm Values.
 There is nothing that gives passer- by a poorer opinion of farm than roadside front incumbered with a weed and scrub nursery, says the Practical Farmer. On many a farm which Is otherwise comparatively clean the road aide is allowed to furnish weed seeds enough annually to keep up the supply Of brow sweatings for the next season. Even where there is some effort to keep the roadside clean it is common to let the whole growth remain until fall, when the weed seeds are ripe. and then have a cleaning up which accom- plishes little good.
 In travelling through northern fndi- ana we were struck with the beautiful sod on each side of the railroad line and inside of the railroad fences. The grass and weeds were evidently care fully mown more than once during the season, and there was late in the fall a sod of emerald green which made a strong contrast with the brown and closely grazed fields on the farms along side. It takes little work, if done at the right time, to keep the roadside in front of ones farm neat and showing only clean sod instead of bushes and weeds.
 The front of thousands of farms in all parts of the country shows growth of bushes that hide the fields beyond and give a neglected appearance to the whole place. Grub the whole front carefully and determine that next sea- son the growth shall be kept down. As the young sprouts appear in spring 1t will take but little while with the scythe to clip them off, and regular clipping with the scythe will do more toward banishing the bushes than any grubbing that is done but once year. Where the no fence law is in opera ton it is easy to keep the roadside clean with the moving machine. and every farmer who takes any pride in the appearance of his place will see to this. There is money value in neat ness, for if two places side by side are offered for sale. one neat and clean and the other bor1ered with bushes and weeds, the clean farm will bring more money Der acre by reason of its ap- pearance. Then, if we add to this some beauty in the planting of the front and the approach to the house. with well kept drive and a beautiful lawn, we will be adding dollars to the salablc value of the farm at small cost.

More Work for the Jaiier.

Four Mexicans had their inning in Justice Browns court yesterday morn ing. They were charged with being in a state of intoxication and engaging in all sorts of hiiarity.

The others were given like sentence. and all departed to the cooler in company with the off cers. The arrests were made Sun cay.

The visitors wsrs delighted with Mr..

ton Of the method Of sugar making.
The fine floral display On the stage was

were not disappointed.
Mrs. J. P. Everhart, formerly Of the
Star Valley. but now a resident of the
vicinity Of Las Animas, was much pleased
to renew the acquaintance Of Rocky
Ford's scenes and people. Mr.. Everhart
is not permanently located at his present
home.
Rev. R. A. N. Wilson Of Pueblo, whom
our citizens will remember as a valuable
worker in opposition to license, was an
active and forceful member of the con-
vention. Mr.. Wilson took great pleasure
in noting the material Improvements
which have recently added to the beauty
and attractiyeness of Rocky Ford.
State conventions of the size of the
Sunday School Association find that a
town Of the size Of Rocky Ford is better
place for meeting than the large cities.
A greater hospitality oharacterizes the
small place, and the sessions Of the con-
ventions have much larger comparative
attendance by the people of the town and
vicinity.
