Louis Vesseron and his sister,

ternoon from San Antonio, where
they have been several days attend
ing federal court as witnesses in a
case wherein Jacob Rutberg, a mer-
chant of that city was charged
with forging a material signature
to a money order, the money order
having been sent TO Miss V, sseron
by her brother here. The accused
was acquitted although Mr.. YES
seron thinks the evidence in the
case was sufficient to warrant con-
viction. The unfanliliarity of the
accused with the English language
was factor in the case, which was
instrumental in the discharge.

Palms says-are the three "C's"
which the growers of his vicinity
are turning special attention to at
present. Asked as to his opinion
of the benefits to accrue from the
proposed new railroad, Mr.. Palm
was quite enthusiastic, and thinks
it will be the means of splendid de-
velopment of the entire river front,
adding much to the material pro-
gress of the section traversed. The
general opinion seems to prevail
that the new road will be built at
an early day, the success of Col.
Lott in past enterprises of like kind,
serving to give the people of this
section a large degree of confidence
in the present undertaking.
While THE HERALD does not
approve all the laws of Mexico, its
thinks some of them might be
copied on this side the Rio Grapde
with benefit. One of these is that
relating to the purchase of town
lots. A party purchasing unim-
proved city property has to make
some improvement within a reason
able and specified time, or condem-
nation proceedings may be institu-
ted and the property forfeited. If
such a law were in force in this
place there would be fewer town
lots with no improvements and
people could obtain desirable res
idence and business property who
are unable to do so at present from
the fact the lots are not on the
market.

THE WAY TO BE HAPPY.
MRS Il. A. TAYLOR.

This is a question that interests all,
The Oder .ha tt, the younger, the great, and
Be thoughtful, be kind, be loving and
good,
And you will be happy, as everyone
Love is the foundation, the handspring
of life;
The essence divine, that puts away
strife.
For the abusive, the angry, and selfish,
no peace;
Such natures unhappy, from ills no re-
lease;
No friends do they find, and all ill at
ease,
Know not in themselves, the power to
please;
Wrapped in selfish distrust, all as ene-
mics seem,
OF the blessing of friendship know not
the CLEAN.
And how hard with such, is life to
renew,
To permeate love, where cold nature
grew;
But in the hardest of hearts, some soft
spot remains,
When touched by the spirit, that
touch it retains.
Sometimes the winsomeness Of sweet
child
Will throw off the glamour of self
there enshrined,
And awaken the mind to new train
of thought,
Sometimes tried as by fire; ere good
results brought.
How pleasant to meet one in whom we
can trace,
A heart all at ease by glance at the
face:
So placid and peaceful, with heart full
of cheer:
They meet you, and greet you, peace
spirit so near;
To possess ali the virtues that we
would acquire,
We must practice in living that which
we desire;
Must be led by the spirit that on the
mount spoke,
Must follow His precepts and His aid
invoke;
With His armor girded, can make
strenuous fight,
Victorious the conquest for God and
the right.

A MODERN PLANT.
NEW MACHINERY AT HUGHES CHAP
MANS MONUMENTAL WORKS.

Hughes & Chapman, the well known
monumental workers at 300
Stratford avenue, Bridgeport, have
with new machinery, 'n' including s
the very latest of every thing needed
for their business and upon the most
modern plan. Among these improve
ments is a 20 b, p. electric motor
which furnishes tie motive power for
the plant. 1t is housed in a very COM
pact and we'll built brick vault and
adjoining it in another building, with
pneumatic air compressor which it op-
crates. This compressor gives an air
pressure of 80 pounds to the square
inch and is SO regulated by means of
an unloader, as it is called, which rails
es lever whenever the 80 pounds linn
1t Is reached and automatically throws
The compressor temporarily out of &C
zion, In which position it remains I'M
Til Its services are again required to
keep the air pressure at the maximum
standard. Whenever that point is
reached, the air compressor with it's
automatic regulation resumes it's nor
NAL work. Within the shop the tomb,
stone lettering is done by means of
compressed air. Rubber hose pipes
having an interior diameter of about
three-eights of an inch, are attached
to iron pipes suspended from the cell
ing, and from these pipes these hose
are at will charged with compressed
air. A cutting tool is affixed to the
end OF the hose and with this tool
proficient man can letter twice as rap
idly as by hand and on some classes of
work three times as much can be &C
complished in a given time. The
firm has also added a surfacing ma
chine for cutting large surfaces: and
plug drill, all working by compressed
air. A new grindstone of mammoth
proportions is not the least of the ne W
fixtures this up-to-date concern have
recently added to their equipment. A
fine new stock Of marble and granite
monuments is to be found in their
yard and they are prepared to do the
very best work at reasonable prices
and in the most approved method of
modern monumental art.

Philip Verrill Mighels is a native of
Nevada, from which he draws material
for many stories, short and long, grave
and gay. He was born at Carson City
in 1869. Reared, as he says, among
miners, cowboys and Indians, he I'M
consciously absorbed the local color and
the facts of western life for a quarter
Of a century. Mr. Mighels was educat-
ed as lawyer and obtained his license
to practice while still twenty-one
years of age, but when he left bis home
to live in San Francisco, he began a
new career-one of art and letters COM
bined. Subsequently,, upon assuming
residence in New York City, he studied
art for several years, and only aban-
doned painting and sculpture because
he found the allurements of literature
greater. Four years of Mr. Mighels'
career as a novelist and writer of short
fiction were spent in London, where
he had the satisfaction of pleasing
the editors of some of England's fore
most magazines, in addition to pub
