J. J. Spencer, lof Monte Vista,
was in La Jara, Sunday.
J. Lake Hackney, of Knoxville,
Tenn, who has been the guest of
T. p. Mcdaniel for the past several
months departed for Denver, Sun
day evening, where he will be
treated for throat trouble.
A commendable exhibition of
public spirit and desire to serve
the best interests of the people was
shown by John Shawcroft last Sat-
urday when, at the early hour of
2 o'clock a. m, he left for the La
Jara meadows with consignment
of 25,OO0 trout fry. The idea of
Mr.. Shawcroft was to transport the
little fellows during the cool hours
of the night, without regard to his
personal discomfort, in order that
they might be placed in the stream
in the best possible condition.
The consignment was planted in
La Jara creek, distance of several
miles being embraced in the dis
tribution. Thanks to the care and
forethought of Mr.. Shawcroft, a
livelier lot was never planted in
any Colorado stream. The con-
signment, one of the largest ever
given to this portion of the state,
was obtained directly through the
influence of The Chronicle.

The Alamosa Dramatic Co. pre-
sented their latest play entitled
The Bishop at Woodman hall
last Friday night to "A small but
appreciative audience. Our Ala

well for their instructor. Mr.. Curtis.
DIR. j. II. Morton and Daniel

rived Saturday morning and were
the guests of T. p. Mcdaniel for a
couple of days. Sunday evening
they left for Denver where they
will spend couple of weeks before
returning home.
Leroy Wilson and H. o. Ellis
went up to their mining property
on the Alamosa, at Sumner. They
were accompanied by Mr.. F. A.
Phelps, mining man from Ft.
Garland. Mr.. Phelps thinks there
is "A great future for the camp, and
the property in which Wilson and
Ellis are interested is one of the
best.
There was very small repre-
sentation from this part of state
at the Pueblo fair. Last year people
went by hundreds and special
trains were crowded. This year
the sentiment seems almost uni
versal to attend the valley fair at
Monte Vista, which accounts for
the limited attendance at Pueblo.
Practically it is case of loyalty to
home industry.
Much public commendation has
been expressed as to the importance
of the work just completed by
Road-overseer j. G. Pursley-the
construction of the bridge across
the aroya west of l.. A. Norla IDS
home, the Strengthening c the road
and the general improvement now
so much in evidence. Mr.. Pursley
is to be congratulated upon the
ability manifested and the admir-
able manner in which the work has
been carried to completion.

THE FARMERS KINGDOM.

Out in the realm Of ripened fields
Nature a wand of magic wields,
And from her bounty, gracious, yields,
Gifts that are rich and rare;
Gladly her store-house she'll despoil
For him, her knight who tills the
soil
Crowned by the triumph of his toll
He stands a monarch there.
His Kingdom: all his eyes survey
Forests of corn and mounts of hay,
Hillocks of wheat that stretch, away
Over the distant lea.
Tho with all nature at his feet,
None to dispute his sway complete,
Nothing to mar his vict'ry sweet.
Humblest OF sov'reigns he.
Rev'rent he stands-as we'll he may
Bowed on each Autumn Sabbath day
While listning to the parson pray
In thankful tones-and then
Moved by the blessings he enjoys
With grateful words his tongue en-
ploys
To praise the Author of his joys,
And, fervent, adds Amen"
Oft from the pew his fancy strays
Out where his fattening cattle Craze,
Thoughts of his fruitful harvest days
Kindle his heart aglow;
And when "Old Hundred" tuneful
rings
With joyous earnestness he sings
Unto the Giver of good things
From whom all blessings flow"

IN BUENOS AYRES.

La Prensa, the famous newspaper
of Buenos Ayres, has building sur
mounted by golden statue of a
young woman. 1t also has 5000
horse power steam siren. When there
is big news. an appalling disaster,
whoop! goes the siren. "A deuce of
row." writes a correspondent "up
and down the scale, defiant shrek,
gurgling groan, for varying period,
according to the Importance of the
event, horrid din resounds through
out the city. The local government
exacts fine for this performance
500 a minute l believe, with a mini
mum of $200-and il the fine is not
paid on the nail the charge is double,
so when one man is sent to operate
the screecher another is sent with a
5000 bill to the courts.
The next operation is to drape the
young lady's statue, with red velvet in
case of a catastrophe, with crepe in
the event of death. All this causes
the most extraordinary sensation. 1t
is, of course, only on great occasions
that this takes place. 1 heard the
siren go the other afternoon fer the
first time, when the news came
through from San Francisco. Within
a few minutes the Avenida, in the
neighborhood of the Prensa office,
and even the Plaza Mayo, was packed
with an excited crowd, awaiting the
circulation of the news. The evening
papers followed suit, in feeble style,
by letting off bombs, and for the rest
of the afternoon the town was a per-
feet pandemonium.-New York Trib-
une.

FROM ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW

The Memphis News-Scimitar seems
to have upon its editorial staff that
rara avis, writer whose standard Of
ethics, and whose moral perceptions
are somewhat near proportioned to
his brightness of intellect. The News
Scimitar has to say as follows:
I'VE want to hear less of the man
who began poor and amassed riches"
observes a modern philosopher, "and
more about the man who lived un-
sullied though died poor"
Words fifty spoken.
Stories about men who were born
of poor, but honest parents" and
who got rich, are a plenty. But news
papers and magazines do not tell
much of the men who have preserved
their honor and died poor.
OF course there is a reason.
Men VINO succeed in getting rich
are exceptions to the rule, and there
fore, notable. The value of a news
story is determined by its uniqueness.
4 phenomenal career excites interest.
The average man lives and dies
comparatively poor. He is not so
built that he can accumulate money.
The exceptional man is built to make
money. You could not fill the law
books full enough with laws to pre-
vent him from accommodating wealth.
Money seems TO stick to his fingers.
The life stories of men who have
lived unsullied lives and died poor are
common. Here is one from real life:
This man was generous-hearted
He never as red to be rich. All he
asked Of the world was a decent liv-
ing worthily earned, a roof tree and
clothes and food for his family. In
all his life he never earned so much
as a thousand dollars in a year. Out
of his modest salary he saved
tHDuEH u pay lDI HE ilpIht. i1S HSb
his children in school until they grad
uated in the high school. He wa'
honorable in all his.dealings. He paiC
his debts. He worked hard and spen
little for luxuries. He helped his fel
lows when he could. He seldom
complained Of his lot He put by
few dollars for old age. Never did III
knowingly commit crime against tn
state or humanity. He laughed oftei
and much. Aand when he died mel
said, He was an honest man and {
good citizen"
Nothing startling about such
story, nothing in it to exploit. But
is typical Of the average man Of thi
country-the salt of the earth.
Let no man think he is a failure
ne has lived an honest and a usefu
life. Ignoble success-and the sue
cess Of many rich is Of that sort
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-08-23
TO MUCH PUBLICITY.

How long did you hold public Of
fice?"
-Four years"
And your salary, I believe, was
$4,000 year,"
YES"
81 can't figure out how you went
in with nothing and retired with
100000"
1T is queer how many people are
bothering over that matter just as
you are. I can't understand how 1t is
that men waste so much time trying
to figure on things that are none OF
their business. Sometimes I am so
disgusted with my fellow citizens be-
cause Of their inquisitive ways that
am almost tempted to go away from
here and never come back again.
