No human being can come Into this
world without increasing or diminish
Ing the sum total of human happiness
not only Of the present but every sub
sequent age Of humanity. No one can
detach himself from this connection.
There is no sequestered spot In the uni
verse, no dark niche along the disk Of
nonexistence to which he can retreat
from his relations to others, where he
can withdraw the influence of his ex.
istence upon the moral destiny of the
world. Everywhere his presence or alb
sence will be felt. Everywhere he will
have companions who will be better or
worse for his influence. 1t is an old
saying and one Of fearful and fathom-
less import that we are forming char
acters for eternity. Forming charac-
ters! Whose? Our own or others? Both
and in that momentous fact lie the
peril and responsibility of our exist
ence. Who Is sufficient for the thought1
Thousands Of my fellow beings will
yearly enter eternity with characters
differing from those they would have
carried thither had l never lived. The
sunlight of that world will reveal my
finger marks in their primacy forma-
tions and In their successive strata of
thought and life.-Elihu Burritt.

The French mode of conducting auc-
tions is rather curious. In sales Of i'm
portance, such as of land, houses, ETC.,
the affair is placed in the hands of a
notary, who for the time being becomes
an auctiOneer. The property, what
ever be its nature, is first examined
by competent judges, who fix upon it
n price, considerably less than its
value, but always sufficient to pre-
vent any ruinous loss by preconcert-
ed plan or combination of bidders. The
property is then offered with the fixed
valuation stated. The auctioneer is
provided with n number Of small wax
tapers, each capable Of burning about
five minutes. AS soon as bic Is
made one of these tapers is placed in
full view of all interested parties and
lighted. If before it expires another
bid is offered, 1T Is Immediately extin-
guished and fresh taper placed in
Its stead, and so ON until one fiickers
and dies out of itself, when the last
bid becomes irrevocable. This simple
plan prevents all contention among
rival bidders and affords a reasonable
time for reflection before making a
higher offer than the one preceding
BY this means, too, the auctioneer is
prevented from exercising undue in
fluence upon the bidders or hastily ac-
cepting the bid of favorite.

. For some time after her marriage
with Napoleon the Empress Marie
Louise was extremely ignorant of the
French language. On one occasion,
seeing her husband look vexed over a
letter he had received from the court
OF Austria, she inquired of him what
was the matter. "Oh, nothing" replied
Napoleon; your father Is an old
ganache, that Is ALL" Marie Louise
did not know that this was French for
fool and took the first opportunity of
asking courtier what it meant, say
Ing that the emperor had applied the
expression to her father. 1T means
some one very learned and wise"
stammered the unfortunate courtier.
The empress was perfectly satisfied
with this explanation and pleased to
learn new word. A day or two after
she received the Archchancellor Cam
baceres in crowded salon. Some
question was being warmly discussed
In the circle, and her opinion was
asked. Wishing to be very gracious,
Marie Louise turned to Cambaceres
aud said, 1--WE will refer that point
to the archbishop, for we all know he
Is the greatest ganache in Paris"

the largest red beet we have ever laid our
eyes on. The monster is almost spherical
and is twenty-nne inches in circumfer-
ence, tipping the scales at twelve and one
quarter pounds. The tops have been
pulled for some time, and it shows signs of
second growth. Of course it is larger
than the average housewife would care to
cook, as itwould require a special sized
pot in which to boil it, but it shows what
splendid feed can be grown here.

Representative Dean of Marshall Fie Id

taking orders for spring goods.
w. A. Dunlavy, manager of the John
Becker Co. store at this place was a coun-
ty seat visitor Tuesday, having business
before the county clerk.
F. L. Atkinson, of Corona was visi-
tor in town Sunday. He with his brother
has opened livery stable at the Crown
CiIy, which promises to meet with good
success. They have secured new rigs, to
which they are constantly adding, having
purchased two new ones on Saturday
last.
Quite little excitement was caused
here last Saturday when O. Perea, one of
the members of the mounted Police Force
arrested Ramon Montoya, a notorious
horse-thief wanted ut present in at least
two of the counties of the territory, Lin
coin and Otero. Just about year ago
Montoya completed seven year term in
the territorial pc 'tentiary for the same
offense, but it has not seemed Ito change
his way of looking at things. Sunday
morning, Sheriff Henley of Lllcoln arrived,
identified his man and took him back to
Lincoln, where he will be given free
board at the county's expense, until his
case comes up.
The local saloon will soon be thing of
the past. The license expires the last
day of the present month, and as there
are less than one hundred people in the
village, it cannot be renewed legally.
The building will be vacated and after hav-
ing thorough renovation; will be used as
a school house, in which Miss Clara
Pence of Estancia will open a private
school. The school is backed by the best
citizens of Torrance and promises success.
1t is hoped to open the school about the
first of November. Some other places in
the county could get along as we'll if they
were to close out saloon or two and op-
en- a school instead.

SOWERFULLY, WE HATE HIM.

The following beautiful poem dedica-
ted to the chronic kicker we gathered
from our axchangea We reproduce it
to show how easily it is for even a mas
ter knocker to be knocked.
Whet ever the best people would do,
He knocked;
Whatever was meant for the good and
the true,
He knocked;
The project intended to build up the
town
And add wee bit to it's sum of re-
nown
Or any old thing that would not pull
it down
He knocked.
The man with plan for the good of
the race
He knocked;
He said it was a useless, ridiculous
chase
So he knocked.
The cause of the true and the cause
of the right.
He said it was quite futile to follow
them quite,
So all of enc day and all of one night
He knocked;
One day day at the upper and beauti-
full gate
He knocked;
Though be vowed that the portal
was not builded straight
AS he knocked
And St. Peter said with a voice full
of woe,
81 am onto your style and your
method you know,
So you'll ind an apartment all heat
ed below,
Fer you're knocked"
