 It is delightful to turn from that dis tressful strain to recent editorial in The St. Louis Republic, the leading Democratic paper in its city State. and section. The Republic is not hearing the death carts rumble, hollow and glimpse of Marat, Robespierre or Dan ton. It hears the hum of industry on every hand and in all useful avocations.

From any point that the Bowen- Loomis incident may be viewed the verdict is bound to be that no trace of corruption or dishonor attaches to the former. The bitterest administra- tion defender cannot show that there is any stain on his honor or character while even the President, in his white wash of Loomis admits that his pet acted indiscreetly. It will take much more than has yet been shown to con- vince the public that Loo conduct while Minister to Venezuela was not tainted by corruption. Yet Bowen is disgraced as far as the President can disgrace him. and Loomis sent abroad on a delicate mission as a special ren- resentative of this government.

 If you will call upon J. c. Sloth.. real estate dealer, he will tell you of a small tract of land near the new object lesson road that a few months ago was offered for sale at $500. That, along with other property near this new road grew in value. and when he had an offer for this same tract of s3,2OO he found 1t had just been sold at $2.7O0, and his offer of s3.2O0. which was over five times its former rate, would not value all came from the building of this sample road. The increase in value of this small tract would pay for over one-half mile of the cost of the road. and the increased value of the abutting properties for one half mile would pay the cost of building or extending this line a distance of ten miles.

Against Illegal Interest,

Referee N. w. Trimble of the Bank ruptcy Court, in Birmin gham, has rend- cred a decision in a case of a bankrupt which will likely have considerable bearing on the money lending business.
 The case was that of Edward Morris, and two land companies and loan and investment companies were the cred itors. In the arguments of the attor- neys 1t was shown that Morris was paying a rate of interest on his in- debtedness, which consisted of bor- rowed money, greater than the legal interest. The decision was in favor of the respondent.
 The referee is preparing a written decision and future cases will be cov- cred. that is where the matter of a larger interest than the law allows Is concerned

ri WHALE SHARK.

One of the most interesting of fishes
and by far the largest of All is the
Rhineodon typus. This has received
the quasi-vernacular name whale
shark, although under the native In
dian name, Mhor, ii has been the OBJ
ject of a regular fishery for a long
time along the northwestern coast OF
India.
.One might naturally suppose that
the animal was so rare that nothing
was known of its range and habits il
the most recent works were consulted.
Geo. Buist, writing in 1850, says: The
greatest, the most gigantic, of the
sharks is n not uncommon in the
Indian ocean, but which, on account
o fits huge size, Is represented by re-
mains in very few museums, and i5
little known. 1t is the Rhineodon
typus, the not inappropriate name OF
whale shark having bSEf coined for it.
This huge animal occasionally attains
TO a length of 60 feet, although the aV-
erage size is much less. 1t does not
willingly approach land, and Is a slow,
apathetic animal, mostly living near
the surface of the ocean, and often
resting, idly floatin galong and sup.
posed TO be sleeping"
Unlike the giant Charcharodon, or
~man-eater, il has extremely small
teeth. and its food consists of very
minute animals. These crustaceans
and mollusks flourish in sub abund,
nce about the surface OF the ocean
that they compensate by their number
for their very small size. II Is a harm

width, furnished with small teeth. II

THE JEMEz FOREST
RESERVE CREATED
President PrOCIaimS for the
Protection of HeadWaterS
of Various Rivers.
FINE SECTION OF NEW MEXICO

A Washington dispatch of Sunday
says hat the work of storing flood
waters Of the Rio Grande river in its
lower course through New Mexico,
which has engaged the attention OF
the geological survey for years, has
shown the necessity for establishing
of forest reserves to protect certain
of it's headwaters in Colorado and
New Mexico, as the ordinary flow
OF the river, or what is known as its
permanent water, for 400 miles OF its
course above FL Paso, representing the
drainage of 80, 900 square miles, ONE
almost entirely from a comparatively
Hkfall area in south-central Colorado
and northern New Mexico, where there
is heavy snowfall in the mountains.
Below this area the rainfall is so
meager and erratic that the country
through which the river passes re-
quires all the water that comes down
the stream. At present much of this
flow is wasted, owing to the Rio
Grande being essentially a torrential
stream subject to heavy and irregular
floods which frequently results in
great scarcity of ilter in the river in
New Mexico. To comedy this the rec
lamation service will impound the
hood waters by a dam heal Engle,
New Mexico, for the storage of sufi-
cient water t. reclaim 10000 acres
of land. The success of this project,
which will necessitate a reservoir
forty miles in length and involve an
outlay Of over $1,000, 900, is largely
dependent upon. conserving and equal
izing the flow in certain streams trib-
utary to the Rio Grande in its upper
course, which can only be accomplish
ed by affording proper protection of
forests which cover their various
watersheds.
The establishment, some months
ago, OF the San Juan and Cocnetopa
forest reserves, in Colorado, extended
protection over the sources of a num-
Der of these tributaries. 1t has since,
however, been found advisable to re-
serve an additional area, across the
line in New Mexico. The president
has accordingly proclaimed the Jemez
reserve, embracing 1882 900 acres of
mountainous region in Rio Arriba and
Sandoval counties, containing a por-
ton Of the drainage basins of the
Rio Chama, the Rio Puerco, Rio JemeZ
and other important tributary streams.

KILLED HIMSELF
SEEKING RABBIT
In Trying to DislOdee Bunny
Receives Charge Of Shot
In the Breast.
DIED ALMOST INSTANTLY

Fernando Benjamin Valdez, a well
known Mexican printer, met death by
his own hand in a shocking manner
late yesterday afternoon, says the Ell
Paso Times. While hunting on the
mesa near Fort Bliss a shotgun THAI
he carried in his hands was accident
ally discharged, the load of shot pass
ing through his right lung. Death re-
suited almost instantaneously.
Valdez started out hunting yester-
day afternoon, accompanied by a small
Mexican boy. They chose the high
ground around Fort Bliss for their
hunting ground, and Valdez succeeded
in killing several rabbits. On their
way home, at a point about two and
a half miles north of Evergreen enc
terry. Valdez chased a rabbit into a
hole in the ground. While endeavor-
ing to punch the rabbit out with the
butt end of his gun the weapon was
discharged as it pointed directly at
his right breast. The entire load
fIom the gun passed through his right
lung and he fell to the ground on his
hands and knees. The little boy VINO
was hunting with Valdez was a short
distance away when the accident &C.
NulAthf u WHICH ht q ne ohOh
he looked in the direction from which
the report came and saw Valdez CROP
ing on his hands and knees. He ran
to him, but by the time the boy reach
ed his side, Valdez was dead.
The boy ran for assistance, and at
the cemetery met two American boys,
and the three fastened to police head
quarters, where the accident vas re-
ported. The police notified Mclean
& Simmons, and a man accompanied
by the little Mexican boy was sent
out to get the remains. The boy had
forgotten the exact location Of where
Valdez fell and the undertaken search
ed for over an hour in the dark before
the body was found.
Valdez was about 80 yeaTs of age
and was a ~son-in-law Of Juan Elias,
~janitor of the court house He leaves
a widow and two small children. He
was a printed by occupation and was
a member of FL Paso Typographical
Union, No. $40, under the auspices of
which the funeral will probably occur.
