Il is safe to cay that the Bonde hall
seldom, II ever, contained lsreer= or
more enthnsi astic gathering than that
which assembled on Saturday evening
ct the Citizens Social. The spacious
hall vas packed ''from bow to stern"
Even standing room was 'above par"
and quite : number of people we're oh.
liged to return home, being unable to
secure 3sdmittsnce. R.v. O.terholm,
president OF the Civic Federation, pre-
sided. After IN opening prayer by
Rev. Fritz Of the NJ: E church, Prof.
Hilleboe made . few remarks on the
presenta, outlook on the license ques-
ton. He said that there was danger
that the city would 60 "wet'' unless
the friends of good city sdministrs-
ton and temperance instilled activity
into the campaign. One of his chief
reasons for believing 90 was the fact
that this year there vas no opposition
ticket. This, he thought, would tend
70 make tho temperance people too
confident Of victory and lull them into
. sense Of security which the situstion
by no means warranted. In his usual
forceful manner he impressed upon tho
minds of his hearers the necessity OF
hard and faithful work that the policy
which has proven SO beneficial to every
Legitimate interest in the city during
the past three years might be contin.

Turnout his speeches he discloses IN

abiding hatred for that leealized curse,
the saloon, and On equally strong and
abiding sympathy and love for: those
who are suffering on account of ito
existence. He paid glowing tribute
to the c|esn appearance Of the streets
OF the city and compared this with
that Of tho past years and Of license

he was frightened away by the occu-

Judge Muller states that he retired
at a late hour and that about the
time mentioned he heard q noise as If
some one was moving about in the
house. Leaving his bed he at once
proceeded to examine the surround.

found that the rear door Of the house

the judge finally concluded that the

New York. Mar THE strike of
the five thousand employees of the
Interborough Rapid Transit Compa-
ny. operating the new subway and
the Manhattan elevated lines in this
city, which took place at four o'clock
this morning, was the most com
plete in the early stages of any rail-
way strike in the history of the city.
After the hour set no trains started
with union crews. So far as reported
only one union motorman refused to
go out Crews of strike breakers were
hurried to the northern ends of the
lines. but not many were found who
understood the manipulation of air
brakes. The elevated service is prac-
ticall tied up, but after eight o'clock
the condition of the subway greatly
improved and trains were operated
without much delay.
No violence is so far reported any
where. Today's strike is the out
growth of the agitation and negotia-
ton which began simultaneously with
the opening of the new subway last
fall

came up from Artesia this morning,

the record of the whole Territory for
flow. They state that the well is an
eight inch bore and that the water
spurts ten feet above the ground. If
these figures are correct, their claim
is probably true.
The report of the drillers from Ar

there is no mistake about the great

A German nobleman annually dis
tributes sum of money in his nome
town to the girls. The amount re-
ceived by each varies according to
the looks of the girl. The palmer a
girl is the more money she receives.
The idea is to place the homely girls
on an equality with the pretty ones

HoNDo RIVER FALLING.

That Was the Report This Morning,
But the Rains of Today May
Bring it UP Again.
The government guage showed that
the Rio Hondo was falling this NOR
ming. in spite of the rains last night
and the rumors to the contrary. The
water stood at3.2 feet this morning
The heavy rains of today may bring
the river up tonight and tomorrow.
If the rain has been general west of
here and in the hills, there is no tell
ing just what the treacherous Hondo
will do.
The U. s. Geological Survey office
reports that the Hondo was still fall
ing this afternoon The surface water
of the present rain has evidently not
reached the river. When the surplus
water reaches the bed it is bound TO
rise. That will probably begin this
evening.
