POSTAL TELEGRAPH
To EXTEND ITS
LINES
WIRES TO ROSWELL
NOW BEING CONSIDERED
Superintendent w, G. Black
Discusses Local Conditions
and the Difficulties Of Trans
continental Biography,

Il have instructions to go TO Ros-
well as soon as possible to make an
examination of conditions there with
a view to extending u lines to that
place" said w. c. Black, superinten-
dent of the Postal Telegraph and Ca
bile company. who was in Albuquerque
yesterday for the day with Local Man
ager Hawkins.
The proposal to extend to Roswell
has beer under consideration for some
time, and l have not been there as
yet simply because | have not had
the time.
4 am very glad to know that Ger
tain measures for the alleged regula-
ting of telegraph companies were hot
enacted into law by the New Mexico
legislature at its recent session, one
or two of these bills We're of such a
nature that it would have been diff
cult for us to operate in this territory
if they had been passed. Certainly
we would have been unable to make
any of the extensions or improvements
now being considered. The company
is already paying a large amount of
taxes in this territory, far more than
could be possibly justified by our To-
cal business, could we put it on that
basis. The fact is that the enormous
expense of operation in this territory
does not leave the local business very
much to the good, Legislation of the
kind proposed in the late legislature
would, had it been passed. have put
rs in the position of having to stop
all improvements in this territory.
1T is difficult for any one not fa-
miliar with the business to realize the
difficulties of operating a rans-conti-
mental telegraph service. Last year,
for instance. seven miles Of u line
went out in a flood in Shoemaker
canyon, near Las Vegas. We were
out of business for seven days. 1t
mean a complete tie-up of our south
western business. While this is an
unusually bad accident, still there are
many lesser ones

Vegetables and Fruits.

The term vegetable has reference to
the whole OF any part Of a plant cult
waited especially with reference to use
at the table. But the use of the word
vegetable doesn't always depend upon
cooking, for celery is a vegetable and
apples are fruit whether eaten raw or
cooked. One would suppose the toma-
to to be entitled to the term fruit, for
the method Of its raising resembles
that Of fruit. But it is usually called
vegetable, whether eaten raw or cook
ed, in spite of its appearance. The
ounce is so fruitlike in appearance
so resembling apples, pears, ETC., that
it persists in being called fruit though
eaten only when cooked. Sometimes
the vegetable is a bud, as with cab
bages and brussels sprouts; leaves, as
spinach; stems above ground, as Us
paragus; stems enlarged (tubers) un'
derground, as common potatoes, OF
roots, al sweet potatoes, turnips, beets
and carrots.-St. Nicholas.

Of foreign corporations, and calling upon
the secretary of state to submit at the

constitutional convention in 1909, which
has been referred to the committee on
judiciary.
The house has passed Rep. Hangen's
bill declaring any one letting a building
or any portion thereof for any pur-
pose punishable under the provisions of
the penal code, commonly known as the
prohibition law, guilty Of a m~isdemeanor.
Upon conviction thereof, the bill pro-
vides, the offender shall be punished by
a fine of not less man $500 nor more
than $1,000, and by imprisonment in the
county jail not less than 90 days, MOI
more than one year. And in addition
thereto if such person be a public officer
he shall forfeit his right longer t hold
such Office or offices and the court before
whom such conviction is had shall order
and adjudge such forfeiture. The bill
carries an emergency clause.
House bill No. 1875, provides for the

The Trunk6Sh.

The trunkfish is one Of the peculiar
inhabitants Of the ocean. 1t Is called
the trunkfsh because its back is com
pletely covered with bony plates Of a
regular shape, forming a complete coat
Of mail. It is protected so completely
that it can move only its tail, mouth
and a small part Of its gills, which
pass through the armor. 1t is quite
small fish and is found only in the
warm waters Of the southern tropica
seas.

Fishing.

There are no "between rounds" no
breathing spells, with the yellowtail.
He is fighting for his life desperately,
no quarter given nor asked, with an
amazing staying power akin to that
marvellous faculty of the leaping tuna.
The angler is far more likely to be
the first one exhausted; the inches, of
line gradually granted to the pump
ing" rod are earned by the sweat Of his
brow and the semiparalysis Of the. BIZ
Rps.
"Have I got a fish or a devilf" ex-
claimed a weary Englishman after a
half hours work, with Sir Yelloxtail
still gamboling. at the end Of 200 feet
Of line. And many have shared his
establishment while catching" these
animated galvanic batteries.
That man has lived and lived In.
tensely to whose bending rod a half
dozen lusty yellowtail have c%apitulated
