provide bodily comforts. He who
notes sparrows and lilies, will not
neglect immortals. The principles
of absolute equity will be observed
in the final accounting. He will
not attempt to reap where he has
not sown. A reasonable increase
only will be demanded. The
ratio between the knowledge and
the stripes will be accurate. =.
The use of the probationary life,
as related to the life immortal, is
finely expressed in the lines,-
"Since | am coming to that room,
Where with the choir immortal,
| shall make thy music when | come.
| tune the instrument here at the door,
And what must do there, think here
before"
Jesus faithful servants
are to be exalted to highest rank
conceivable The relator saw
thrones for the faithful. They
shall be rulers. The wis
dom learned i'll humble spheres
shall be useful to the mighty Gov
ernor of a universe. His stewards,
exalted, shall share with Him in
some form of dominance over intel
LICENCES. ''Such a promise let no
one contemplate except when
clothed in the profoundest humili-
ty." 1t admits of ques-
ton whether the destiny of the
kingdom of heaven is not in the
hands of the disciples not rela-
lively, but absolutely-and wheth-
er this is not the full meaning of
the words: delivered his goods
and went into a far country" If
this be 50, it is a mighty incentive
to fidelity. A company
of tourists amused themselves by
calling to the cliffs Of Mount De-
sert Island, Captain Kidd,
where's your money hid" The
lacouic answer came back, as if in
mockery, Moneys hid" =.
Men are still burying talents.
What splendid pearls of genius
have heen dissolved in the bowl
How true the German proverb,
"The bowl has swallowed more
than the sea-" What almost un-
limited possibilities of goodness,
beauty, and usefulness have come
to nothing in mere human animal
ism. 1t is hazardous to
say we will be rewarded for the
fidelity, irrespective of whether
there is anything to show for it or
not. Fidelity ough to show fruit.

The Last Battle of the Revolution

Ahe LdSt Dattle OF the RsNOlutiCH.
1t may be Of interest to the boys
and girls of today to know where
the last battle Of the Revolution
was fought. 1t was at the foot of
Murray street, New York City,
not far from the Hudson River.
On the morning of November IS,
1888, when the British troops were
to evacuate the city of New York
and leave America independent,
Mrs. Day unfurled her country's
flag over her dwelling. The British
claimed the right to hold possess
ion of the city until noon of that
day. Cunningham, the notorious
British provost marshal was in
formed of this impudent display
of the rebel banner" in the pres
ence of the British troops, and
sent sergeant to order it to be
taken down. Mrs. Day refused
compliance. At about nine o'clock
in the morning, while Mrs. Day
was quietly sweeping in front Of
her home, 4 burly British officer,
in full uniform, with a powdered
wig, walked rapidly down the
street. He halted before Mrs. Day,
and roughly inquired, who
hoisted that rebel fag?" Mrs. Day
looked the angry officer full in the
face, said, II raised that flag"
Pull it down." roared the Briton.
81 shall not do it," said Mrs. Day.
You don't know who l am" an
grily growled the officer. Yes,
do" said the courageous wom-
all. The officer seized the hal
yards and attempted to pull down
the flag, when Mrs. Day flew at
him with her broom and beat him
SO severely over the head that she
knocked off his hat and made the
powder fly from his wig He
stormed and tugged in vain at the
halyards, for they were tangled.
and Mrs. Day applied her broom
stick 50 vigorously that the blus-
tering provost marshal was finally
compelled to beat hasty retreat,
leaving the American flag floating
in triumph over the we'll defended
ebay Castle. "

commissioners was thorough and

would begin about the first of April.
The reports that have been judici-

points and beef steers here are 10
to % cents lower than the preced-
ing week. Choice steers sold at
$3.50 with most of the business at
S4OO TO S4.75. Cows were in good
demand but supply was light.
Choice killing COWS closed strong
to dime higher but common cows
continue weak as demand is only
fair. One bunch of good cows sold
during the week at $500, which
was the best sale reported. and
bulk of the better killing grades
went at $500 and up. Bulls were
in good demand but supply not
heavy. Prices closed about steady.
Neals are hardly us strong as IL
week ago although demand is still
good and tops sold at S6.75. Feed
er and stocker supply was light
and market quiet. Demand was
very good for the better kinds but
medium and inferior stuff is as dull
as ever. Good steers closed strong
with common kinds weak. Con-
ditions in the feeder and stocker
division remain on the whole about
the same as week ago.
Supply of cattle to-day was about
400 head, quality good. Eastern
markets We're all lower and trade
was slow here in consequence, but
very little changes in values. Beef
steers are hardly as firm as last
week but COWS sold well at strong
prices. Feeders and stockers un-

LET US HAVE 1T.

In view of the many charges and
counter charges being made by
divers and various persons through
out Conejos county at this time,
we believe that the calling of a
grand jury to investigate them all
would be the best service that our
District Judge could render to a
long suffering public. Let the
grand jury probe into some of the
shady transactions of certain re-
formers and indict them along with
those of our county officials who
may be found to have misconduct
ed their offices. What we want
and must have is thorough clean
ing up. not only in one direction
but in all directions. Wherever it
can be found that dishonest and
corrupt methods have been prac-
ticed. let them be shown up and
the guilty parties punished. We
may be given the privilege of YER
flying that old maxim, Thief cries
thief" BY all means let us have
IA grand jury and get to the bottom
of tha nit
