SOCOR29 TELEPaON COMPANY
Will Meks Gront improvements in
tho Opera House and Other
Buildings at oncs.

a transaction tlat means
much Tor thc welfare and pro-
grcss ol the cay uf Socorro was
conSumnatrd Thursday, when
Capt. Il J Matthew's, tS mama
ger Tor the Su,urro Telephone
Company, secured from Abran
Abeyta ten-Ytar l,aSc on the
Garcia property, including the
Garcia residence, the Garcia
opera house, and the adobe build
iugS in the same block on Cali
fornia street
Captain Matthews will at once
begin the work OF putting every
building on the property into
firSt-clasS condition. He saws
that the opera house will not
only be put into perfect repair
but will be so improved in its in
terror arrangements and equip
ment that its best friends will
hardly know it. One room in
the Garcia residence will be used
for the central telephone Office
and the others will be devoted to
uses to be made known later.
The buildings on California
street will be fitted up to serve
as residences for the employees
of the telephone company. This
is but a very general outline of
the improvements contemplated
by the company, which, the Chief
tain is assured, mean much for
the welfare of Socorro.
The business of the Socorro
Telephone Company has grown
rapidly and substantially under
Captain Matthews management.
The Captain expresses himself
as very grateful for patronage
already extended to an enterprise
which seemed to promise so 1T
tie at the beginning, and assures
his patrons that greater improve
mentS are now i'll store for So
corro in his line than the public
can now anticipate.

Severest Experienced at Socorro for
Nearly Twenty Years.
The weather of the first of the
week will long be remembered as
the severest winter weather ex-
perienced at Socorro for nearly
twenty years The fall of six
inches of snow of the last days
of last week was followed by the
extremely low temperature OF
one-half of one degree below
zero on Sunday morning, three
degrees above zero on Monday
morning, and about the same on
Tuesday morning. During all
the rest of the week the temper
ature has hovered very near the
freezing point. The fall of snow
OH the ranges of the county last
week was phenomenal and fears
are expressed that much stock
will perish from cold and starva-
tion. No such weather has been
known in this locality since 'SS.

peafness CANNOT be cured

by local applications, as they cam
not reach the diseased portions of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and wheu it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored TO its
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inilamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness
(caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by q
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonic.
but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects
also.
As proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N Y. who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
9 For two years I suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated my entire system that
was unable to attend to my daily duties
1elt weak and nervous, and nothing that ate
tasted good and it caused disturbance in my
stomach tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed to help me. / was adj
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound trial, and was happily surprised
to fin7 that it acted like fine tonic, and in a
few days began. to enjoy and properly digest
my food. Ny recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks was a well woman / have rec
commended it to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement, or has such record of
cures Of female troubles, as has Lydia
z. Pinlzham's Vegetable Compound.

Columbus, two to a similar school at
Madison, Wis, and one is to be in

PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST GERM
People With Weak stomachs Most
Liable to Catch Disease.

When the stomach and digestive
organs are weak, the food does not
digest. and there is a sour, Shiny,
fermenting mass, making it an ideal
spot for the disease germs to multi
ply The only way to protect yourself
against disease germs is to strengthen
the stomach and digestive organs, and
Mf-o-na is the only agent, so far as
is known, that will accomplish this.
The ordinary medicine that is
taken for Indigestion and stomach
troubles, is advertised to act upon the
food alone, and hence can give no
more than temporary relief. Mi-o-na
is a. certain cure in all cases of stom-
ach troubles, excepting cancer, be-
cause it enables the stomach and d.
gestive organs to act in the way Ma
ture intended they should. Drugs can
not digest the food; they simply de-
compose it.
If YOU suffer with distress after eat
ing, pains in the head, chest, sides and
back, beIching of gases and undigested
food, bad taste in the mouth, dizziness
or vertigo, heartburn, variable appe-
tite, sick headaches, spots before the
eyes, and have a general feeling Of de-
spondency. weakness and debility, you
should at once strengthen the stom-
ach and digestive system by the use
of Mi-o-na- There is no liquid, no alco-
hol, no spoonful doses with Mi-o-na-
Just one simple tablet out of a fifty
cent box before eating, and your stom-
ach will soon become so strong and
healthy that you will be germ proof.
Ask Rowley & Snow. Sixth and Kan
sas avenue. to show you the guarantee
under which they sell Mi-o-na; costs
nothing unless it cures.

CHARGED WITH LARCENY.
Two Prominent Massachusetts Men
Under Arrest.

Boston, Feb. 27.-Frederick w. Peabody
of Cambridge, well known attorney, hav-
ing offices in this city, and William G.
Nixon a promoter of Braintree. are under
arrest, charged with larceny of 1850 from
Edwin w Parker of Little Rock, Ark.
Early today the men were released under
bonds of 5000 each They will be arraign-
ed tomorrow morning.
Mr.. Parker, who is engaged in the bank
ing business in Arkansas. has recently
spent his winters here He alleges that
the defendants secured the money from
nun for the purchase of the patent on a
machine with which to print advertise
ments on watches. The money was to be
returned to him, he alleges, if the pur-
chase was not made. and he alleges it was
not made, within a certain time

Him. This picture is one of Christ
lying at full length in the tomb, with
the head resting against a stone, the
heavy door of the tomb ajar and the
setting sun sends it's rays in a flood of
golden light upon the head and hair
of the dead before US. Never were the
yellow lights of the fading sun better
painted, and as one stands silent and
absorbed the splendor of the redemp-
ton and solace of world-worn hearts
comes to US as seldom before.
The picture attracted much atten-
ton in the ''salon" where it was lad
mitted, - but it is too large for any
thing but a gallery and as yet has
found no purchaser.
The real genius of Princess A-stoft
lies in pOrtraiture and it is in this work
she puts her SOUL that is the reason
her heads of Christ are so real and
not the dead, half-alives sanctified
countenances of the classics. In paint
ing portrait she rarely poses a sub
Ject, but allows them perfect freedom
of movement and expression with only
occasional lapses into the posture that
is to be perpetuated on the canvas.
The result is similar to that of mod
ern photography today: there is light
ness, and grace and naturalness
wholly hfelike, The light she puts
into eyes is that of nature and reminds
us of the art of Elizabeth LeBrun
whose chieftest charm is the light in
her eyes. Such are is as great as it
is rare.
There came to the princess z. com
mission to paint the portrait Of one
of the celebrated beauties of orr
American millionaire class The
papers were drawn up and signed. the
princess was to have gone to New
York for a year, where we feel sure
her work would have brought ac-
acknowledgement and appreciation. but
in some of the minor details the dis
agreeable spirit of the client came to
the surface and the contract fell
through. The artist nafyeiy remarked:
What could one do if she were not
kind %
we had Russian ''tea" in a most
informal fashion from off the huge
table that stretches across the atelier
and holds her household goods and
curios.
We talked of Russia, her czar, and
her trials and we gained new lights
on all. In her art Princess A-stoff
blends all the modern schools of art.
She is eclectic and while her strong
work and unusual color schemes occa-
sionally remind one of Whistler, whom
she much admires, she still insists
with Burne-Jones that she has no
liking for the excellence of unfin-
ished work.
Her work is exquisite in detail and
great in conception, and best of all, it
is alive. Her portraits speak to you,
and smile and-say things. Her art
is born of herself. Life has robbed
this strongly reverential and generous

soul of all its heritage of love and
sympathy. She has dear friends, to
be sure, but there is in her eyes a
hungry look for the children and
heart companion that should be hers.
Her days are spent alone, for she
gives of herself to but few and into
the canvas she painLs her soul and
her souls Iongings and dreams of the
problems that are to help a sorrow
ing world. Small wonder that Christ
and his atonement, with Mary-mother
cIinging to the loss. jubilant in the
joy of having produced such a son,
should be one of her greatest pictures.

Senator Waggener's resolution that
the senate finally adjourn on Saturday
was laid over to be considered Thurs
day. Senator Dolley wished to wait a
few days before considering such res
olution. Why, your Republican ma
jority in this legislature, talked of a
30 day session." remarked Senator
Waggener.
The senate this morning passed an
amended stock yards bill which will
make the legal rates for yarding and
weighing in Kansas the same as the
rates arbitrarily charged in Missouri.
The bill as passed by the senate this
morning fixes the yarding and weigh
ing on cattle 25 cents, calves 10 cents,
hogs 6 cents and sheep 5 cents. The
legal rates under the present law, which
will be repealed by the passage Of Sen
ator Hayden's bill, fiAes the rates at 10
cents for cattle. cents for calves, 6
cents for hogs 4 cents for sheep.
Under our present law Kansas loses
all the stock yards business except the
handling of hogs said Senator Hay
den. Our rates under the law for all
but hogs are lower than those charged
across the line in Missouri. The result
is the live stock is taken across the
Kansas we must make the legal rate as
low as charged in Missouri"
The Kansas and Missouri legislatures
named conference committees to meet
at Kansas City and agree on a bill to
be passed by both the Kansas and Mis-
lature has failed to pass the bill so the
bill before the Kansas legislature has
been amended to make the rates now
charged in Missouri legal in Kansas.
