Damage Suit Settled

1t is rumOred that the Santa
Fe Railroad Company has set
tied the damage suit of Mrs.
Minerva Greer, of COnCho. for
$780, 1t will be remembered
by our readers that Lacy Greer
was killed at the stock yards in
Holbrook last year by a gate
falling on him while he was trv
ing to close the same. The
widow brought suit against the
company on the grounds that
her husbands death was caused
by negligence on the part of the
company by not keeping the
gate of their stock yards in
proper condition. Claim Agent
Franklin, of the company, and
Attorney Isaac Barth, of St.
Johns, representing Mrs. Greer,
met at Holbrook Thursday and
Mr.. Barth presented his case to
the agent, who deemed it wiser
to settle the case out of court
than to stand SUIT. We under
stand that, under the laws of
the territory, $4,000 is the maxi
mum amount of damages that
can he recovered in case death
is caused by negligence of

SCHOOL EN-
TERTAINMENT
At the Opera House Last Even
ing Drew a Large Crowd
Two Graduates.

The Public School entertain
ment and commencement eXer-
cises at the opera house last
night was enjoyed immensely
by the large crowd that was
present,
The program started out with
cantata. THE Carnival of
Flowers. in which large
number Of the smaller children
of the school took part. Each
and everyone Of them played
their part well, which proved
that they had been thoroughly
trained.
The second part of the pro
gram began with the invocation
by Rev. Oman.
Next came the reading of the
essays of the two graduates;
Miss Selma Woods and Miss
Essee Pdrr.
Miss Woods S subject was
"Arizona. and Miss Parr 's.was
Perseverance. The essays
were delivered in an able and
distinct manner. That their
subjects had been given much
thought and study was evidenc-
ed by the logic they contained.
Bishop Hamilton delivered a
short and very interesting ad-
dress. In a few choice words
he presented the graduates with
their diplomas.
Superintendent of the County
Schools r. G. Smith spoke for
few minutes and congratulated
the people upon the successful
school year that had just clos
ed.
The program closed by all
singing ''AmeriCa.
This entertainment marks the
close of the school term for this
wear, and that it has been a
most successful one there is no
doubt. Able teachers under the
direction of Miss Klingensmith,
and school trustees that took
an interest in the school, are
the powers that made the term
the success that it was.

Meat and Potato Pie.

Cut the meat into small pieces, re-
moving the fat, and put in a baking
dish. To two pounds of meat add a
cup of stock or pot liquor. Cut one
onion or two escha1ots in slices, fry
light brown and mix with the meat;
add salt and pepper to taste. Boil
two pounds of potatoes, wash them,
adding two ounces of butter and cup
of milk, salt to taste, and the beaten
yolk of an egg. Cover the meat with
this potato paste, raising the crust
above the edge of the dish. Mark the
surface across diamond shape with
back OF knife, or score with a large
fork or skewer. Put dish in the oven
and let the crust bake nice brown,
then serve.

Chic Effects are Done in Linen.

All colors are more or less fashion,
able in linen, and the new shades in
blue, pink and lavender are all in great
demand. In these three colors all
tones are effective, from the palest to
the most vivid and decided; but the
more unusual the shade the better.
Very effective are the real and also
the imitation lace jackets, both long
and short, which are worn with linen
gowns as well as with more elaborate
costumes. If possible the dress should
be trimmed with lace to match the
coat, but this is not really necessary,
and the one jacket may be worn with
a variety of gowns.
There is no definite style for this
lace coat, for the bolero, although not
so expensive as the Louis XVI, is al
most as desirable. Any costume would
be effective if adorned with a real lace
coat, but the gown itself should be
in keeping with so rare and expen-
Sive a garment.

these years our trade declined; a
wave of population swept westward;
Ohio was admitted as state; Jeffer-
son was elected president; Louisiana
was purchased from France and war
renewed in Europe.
AS nearly all western Europe soon
became tributary to Napoleon, our
country became the great neutral
ocean carrier. An immense trade was
developed which Great Britain at
tackled with orders in Council and Ma
poleon with DEGREES. Nothing was
left but fight for our neutral rights or
abandon the sea. Jefferson chose the

For the Younoer Members.

The point de'esprit gowns are pret-
ty when trimmed with the white satin
baby ribbon, but these do not launder
quite as well as do the lawns, dimities
and other wash materials. Some of
the dimities and organdies make the
sweetest of summer frocks for young
girls and misses. One, in a lacy blue
dimity, is made with gathered skirt
which is full about the bottom and
shows three broad tucks above the
hem. The baby waist is shirred into
the belt and has shallow yoke of
fine white embroidery in a very open
pattern. The sleeves are elbow length
and are quite full, ending in dimity
ruff1es edged with lace.

The foreign issues which distracted
the people from 1898 to 1915 were
soon replaced by others of domestic
origin, and during this period of tram
sition the Federalist party disap-
peared. From 1917 to 1921 there was
but one national party, and so harmo-
NOUS was it that in 1920 Monroe was
the only presidential candidate. This
harmony was due to lack of national
issues; but it could not last, and in
1924 four party chiefs-Adams, Clay.
Crawford and Jackson-contended for
the presidency, and threw the cleo
ton into the House of Representa-
tives in 1925.
The great events from 1916 to 1925
were the purchase of Florida and the
settlement of our boundary from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific (1819);
the establishment of the forty-ninth
parallel from Lake of the Woods to
the Rocky mountains as part of the
northern boundary QS1S); the Mis-
souri, Compromise (1S2O); announce
ment of the Monroe Doctrine (1S23),
and the rise of the West.
The issues growing into Importance
were the removal of the Indians from
the Southern states, the use of the
public lands and the money derived
from their sale, the building of roads
and canals at Federal expense, tariff
for protection and sound currency.
On these the two parts of the old Re-
publican party took sides and became
rival parties, known after 1884 as
Wings and Democrats.
Between 1925 and 1S45 the indus
trial development of our country was
Jsr
ished, canals were dug, railroads we're
paid, surplus revenue was accumu-
lated and distributed among the
states. trades unions were formed and
the ten hour day secured, notification
was put down, wild speculation pro-
duced the panic of 1887, the struggle
with slavery commenced in earnest in
Texas.
Annexation of Texas led to war
with Mexico and a further expansion
of our territory. The effort to provide
New Mexico and Utah with territorial
governments brought on the free-son
struggle and the compromise of 1850:
the Kansas-Nebraska contest pro-
duced the Free Soil and Republican
parties and made slavery the ruling
political issue to 1860 Out of the
war for the Union came four classes
of issues-our claims on Great Britain
for damages caused by cruisers fitted
out in her ports, abolition of slavery
and the thirteenth, fourteenth and If
teenth amendments, the reconstruc-
tion acts and the great bonded and
floating debt While these issues
were in process of settlement our
country again entered a period of
great industrial, agricultural and min
ing development; the Pacific railroads
were built, the Middle West and the
Northwest were settled, great corpora
tions came into existence and finan-
cial. Industrial, labor and commercial
problems became the issues of the
day. The acquisition of Hawaii and
the results of the Spanish war expand
ed our territory to the doors of China
and gave us new problems in govern
ment-New York World

latter and began retaliation by a sys-
tenn of trade restrictions, which ended
with war in 1912.
The loss of our neutral trade and
the war brought on a period of busi-
ness reorganization, depression. hard
times and caused such distress that
hundreds of thousands of people left
the seaboard and hurried to the far
West of that time. As consequence,
between 1916 and 1921, Indiana. nli-
nois, Alabama, Mississippi and Mis-
souri, entered the Uuion as states.

Wash Materials.

The wash materials are unusually
attractive this year and the multitude
of diaphanous stuffs are not intended
for Tubing is a triumph for the de-
signers and manufacturers. Batiste is
q special favorite and one gown is a
dainty white frock in this material,
lined with light banana yellow, or
rather worn over a slip of banana
yellow dull finish silk, yelled in silk
mousseline of the same shade. The
bodice has surplice front made OF
two embroidered batiste ruf1es and a
band of embroidered insertion runs
from neck to bust line The elbow
sleeves are finished with a double
hounce matching those on waist
With this costume is worn a deep
girdle in messaline ribbon Of three
shades of yellow and three shades of
light green, toning in harmoniously
with the yellow.

In White Pique.


Pique is again in demand for white
suits, and also a cotton Sicilian, which
is especially pretty in colors- Both of
these fabrics are of the weight which
is better made either with long coat
or the universal short jacket rather
than a shirt waist A tendency is
shown to get away from the kilt in
making these heavier weight skirts,
and a four-gored pattern with a seam
in front, finished with three graduated
bands at the bottom, is excellent. A
suit of white pique has the skirt made
in this way with an extremely short
jacket bordered all round with heavy
insertion of Irish point. 1t was worn
over white waist and finished with
two square tabs of black silk button
ing back over the fronts with large
white linen medallions, into which were
threaded touches of yellow embroid-
cry. The wherefore of this touch of
black was the deep black silk girdle
which was effectively worn under the
jacket

Wear Raincoats.

It Is seldom that any one style of
wrap has become SO extremely popu-
lar as the loose rain coat of blue silk
that so many wear this spring. One
woman has a wonderfully voluminous
one she always wears with a costume
of dull blue cloth and hat to match.
A north side matron wears one while
in her automobile or driving, of dark
blue rainproof satin, with a little blue
hat to harmonic with the coat. That
hat, by the way, gave the distinguish
ing touch to a costume that otherwise
might have been thoroughly common

a bunch of bright pink roses that
were put there by some one wh1
knew what was just the right thing.

actual expense of so cents. But by the
time this is discovered the willy arbnt-
