Thousands of BIOS Onians Widely
Cheered SACK Lorimer ON she Nigh
of the State Election.
On the evening OF the state election,
when tens of thousands of men, women
and children stood in the streets OF Bos-
ton and watched the great white screens
upon which the returns were thrown,
cheering one after another-Guild,
Draper, Whitney Moran--as they showed
gains, there were no cheers given with
greater zest or earnestness than those
which greeted the appearance of Jack
Lorlmer. Within three short weeks this
boy has become known throughout the
length and breadth of New England, and
everywhere be has gone he has won the
hearts of men, women and children. His
great popularity in Boston was shown
by the manner in which he was greeted
when his picture was shown in the stere-
opticon, and 10 900 men, women and
children cheered. Thousands OF letters
received by the Boston Herald have only
emphasized the verdict, and if anything
more were needed the fact that the Bos-
ton Herald has been unable to supply the
demand tor the Sunday issue during the
past month would be enough, All this
goes to prove that Jack Lorimer is the
most popular boy IN all New England
He has been triumphantly elected, and
the stories told about him in the. Boys
and Girls OF New England of the Boston
Sunday Herald will only serve to increase
the popularity OF Mr.. Winn Standish's
young hero.

VERMONT NEWS.


That the reported scarcity OF turkeys
in Vermont does not apply to Franklin
county was demonstrated by most
unusual sight witnessed by Fred A.
Field of Rutland at Richtord recently
huge flock OF birds tor the Thanks
giving dinner table, said to contain 100
turkeys, were driven along the road
from Richtord to Enosburg Falls, dis
tance OF 10 miles, as il they had been
so manv cattle. Three men managed
this great exodus of poultry for the city
markets and the way that the turkeys
were kept together was remarkable. One
"drover" walked ahead with measure
containing grain to entice the birds along
while the other two urged them on from
behind. 1t is safe to say that this was
the largest fl ok OF turkeys ever gathered
together In Vermont under similar con-
ditions. There are parts OF the state
where just as many turkeys are raised as
in Franklin county and the size OF the
crop there should be some indication Of
the general output.

LET NO ONE DISPISE
DAY OF SMALL THINGS
Harrington Hustler
Pennington Hustlei

This is the twenty-sixth annual fair for Pennington.
Twenty-six years ago a little gathering of strangers look
place down near the San Juan river in a wild cottonwood
grove. Some of them had been successful already In the
cultivation of the soil and had produced among other
things a bountiful supply of luscious watermelons' Most
Of them were engaged in the cattle business. All were
interested in showing what they had accomplished, just
as everybody else is. So they got together and those
who had spaded the sand and been rewarded with water
melons brought them along; and those who had followed
the steer on the range furnished the cold roast beef.
Thus the first San Juan county watermelon picnic had
its origin. And the long green with red center-the fruit
of the vine-the watermelon vine-was the first tame
fruit served upon the grass, or upon anything else, IN san
Juan county.
The watermelon picnic was a success and it was
thereupon decided that the following fall a larger gather
ing should be held and more products be brought for in
formation and comparison, and that amusements be add
ed. Thus the fair of 1880, the first in the county, had It's
origin. Since that time it has been a regular institution
increasing from year to year until it now requires four
days of time to carry out the details of the program.
Pennington fairs have always been successful, main
ly because the county has always been productive; sec
ondly because its people have always been hosptaDe
and progressive.
This year is one of the bright spots in the history
Of the county. 1t will long be known as the year the
railroad came" and for that very reason it should and
will be made more memorable by a better fair.
This fall marks the beginning of a new era. The
stage coach and the freighter will move on, instead o
being our means of transportation with the outside
world. They will be the means of bringing those beyond
this point to us and the bulk of their business will be
done here as ours has been done in Durango for the pas
twenty-five years.
The prospects are that this will be the end of The
road for the present and while it is it will be the distrib
uting point for a large area and our business will rapid
y increase.
With the new advantage everything will be done
With more dispatch and business methods and life vii
become more rapid, more progressive, and the progress
of the San Juan valley will advance, ever increasing IL
velocity and volumne until this is the banner county o
New Mexico in a hundred different ways.

SELECTIONS MADE FROM
PRESS OF SOUTHWEST
For Ones Town,

The Roswell Commercial club is going after things
for their town. This clubs educational committee are
now attempting to secure a college for girls. 1t is esti-
mated that $4,000 will give them a good start for a col
lege. Ration has use for the above amount just now to
redeem promises to the new railroad and then the cream
cry, it is hoped, will receive attention. And when it is
remembered what a thinning out of our young ladies and
men is taking place this month we realize that a girls col
.lege and a boys college, too, for that matter, would re-
suit in more young people being at home while in their
student days augmenting society and church as well as
adding materially to the prosperity of the city by keeping
their money at home. We can not help hoping that when
our railroads are built and needed public improvements
attended TO that Raton's Commercial club can hace a
hand in locating colleges here--Raton Range.

Sleep. little baby, and wake up to JOY,
Father is coming to dandle his boy.
Home comes the soldiers, the stranger, the rover;
Safe he comes hither-the bitter war over.
Sleep, little baby, there's nothing to fear,
Soon will your warrior-father be here,
Back from far lands through mischances and dan
ger,
Unscathed and rejoicing comes father, the stran-
ger.
Sleep. little baby, how seasons have flown,
Since father said, gravely, goodbye to his own.
What marches and battles, what sieges and slaugh-
ters,
Since the men of Japan went across the salt wat
ersl
Sleep, baby, sleep, all his perils are past,
Furled are the colors of battle at last.
Home comes your father, the stranger, the rover,
To dandle his baby-the bitter was over.
