on account OF these expenditures.
What added fuel to the flame of indig-
nation was the state of perfect peace
on sea as well as land. Mexico had
called in her warships as well as arm
les, and so Texas had a useless navy
on it's hands.
But Lamar suffered from the cam
paign in which his extravaganza was
ton succeeded him.
Among Houston's first official acts
aftef taking his seat as president was
to call upon his congress to put the
whole Texas navy out of commission.
The resolution was enthusiastically
and almost unanimously passed, and a
commission of three men was sent
to New Orleans to notify Commodore
Moore of the order, and they ordered
band the service. The commodore in
dignantly refused to obey the order.
Commodore Moore refused to COM
ply with the order to disband until the
act of congress was publicly pro-
claimed This was done and he report

the vessels remained there unnamed
until the annexation of Texas to the
United States three years later.
These war vessels, of course, were

Squirrels In Missouri.

Squirrels are generally thickest ir the heavy hickory timber in the biz tracts of overcup oaks. When these crops have borne but slightly the squirrel transfers his feeding grounds to the willow oak flats, where an abun- dance of these small acorns makes up for the lack of other dainties. But if a farmer has ploWed up a tract of rich swamp land asd planted it in corn, then the gray squirrel feels as though the nut crop was but very common diet and levies tribute day after day on the farmer who has had the au- dacity to invade a territory that has been sacred to him for centuries.
 Gray squirrels are out stirling from the first gray of dawn until the hour of 10 a. m. After that they are not seen again until p. m.' On very windy days few stir about During the nutting season they are very gen tie, and during the latter part of Jan- uary, while watching the mallards drop into the willow oak flats. they scampered all around us, and hardly a tree but held band of these run ming varmints. Often they boldly re- turned within ten yards of us. In the fall they are more wary of man and make good shooting as they run and jump from tree to, tree, as they seldom lie still and permit one to walk all around their tree, like the fox squirrel of the hills.-Forest and Stream.

Washington, Nov. Statements con. tinue 10 come from various parts of the country that President Roosevelt will soon hold a conference with heads Of great railroad systems upon trans portation questions and that the whole subject of the regulation of the raj. roads will be discussed. No arrange ments have been made at the Whrta House for any such conference: but. it Is said. beyond doubt the president will talk with presidents of railroads as well as representatives of other in- terests from time to time before the assembling of congress.

The tongs. the size of wishbone, were of rough gold, studded here and there with turquoises.
 They are tobacco tongs," said the antiquary. ''They date back to Eliza. beth's time. This pair belonged to Raleigh-at least I have been told so, and who is there to contradict me 7? In Elizabeth's time they had no match. es. When q man wanted light, there. fore, he took his tobacco tongs from his girdle and nipped out of the fire a redhot chunk of wood. This glowing coal, held in the tongs, gave a beau. tiful light Tobacco tOngs, as my pair witnesses. were often very costly and ornate. Of gold, of silver. of ivory and decorated with diamonds, rubies, emeralds and so forth. they were pret ty trinkets to dangle upon silken coats. They are being revived now.

 At least you will stay to dinner, he urged. T cannot let you go on be fore you have eaten. Dinner will be ready in half an hour. Meanwhile you can wash up and rest on the piazza"
 He took her acceptance for granted and led the way to a spare room where he saw that she was provided with toilet accessories. He did not show up until dinner time, when he and the minister enjoyed the meal the more for her gracious presence at the table. Colton followed her out upon the piazza. at the conclusion of the din ner and stood beside her under the heavy vines that screened the porch.
 Y shall send man around pres ently," he said softly, Eff you insist upon going. but, Bess, deSr, can't you reconsider your determins-Aon?'
 T could not very we'll stay here" she answered indifferently.
 "As my wife?'' he asked. Are you going to hold against me that one silly moment last summer when l lost my head and my temper and through that lost you? If you could know how bit terly I have repented." t...
 "Penitence does not efface the scar of the wound you inflicted" she said. q. too, have suffered, but have taught myself to forget"
 And will you not forgive as we'll as forget?" he pleaded When I saw you at the head of the table just now and realized that but for my impetu- osity you would always be at the head of that table, it was all I could do to keep from crying out for forgiveness. Won't you forgiven"
 For a moment the girl searched the eager face before her. It was a face good to look upon, and her own heart cried out in surrender, but still she paused. Then from around the corner of the house came Humphres' rich barytone. It was "cow song," crude as to words and simple in it's melody, song sung to cattle on the night watches to reassure the timid animals. She remembered that he had been singing it the night that Colton pro- posed, and great wave of tenderness swept over her as she recalled those happy days of last summer. The white hand stole out and slipped within Col tons Drowned fingers.
 Since fate-and Humpy-seem to will it so," she said softly.

PLAN TO DIVORCE
RAILROAD SYSTEMS
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
Ready for Interstate Commits
sion's Recomme

New York Feb. 6.-The Times to-
day says that it is learned from bank
ing quarters that the controlling in
terests of the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific Railroad systems are pre-
pared for the recommendation by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to divorce the Union Pacific anu tae
Southern Pacific properties.
The legal proceedings will be con
tested to the United States Supreme
Court, but if an adverse decision is
rendered the Union Pacific will sell
its Southern Pacific stock, but this
will in no wise effect the harmonious
relations existing between these two
properties and Hartman will still
control both, as James ]. Hill con
trolls the Great Northern and the

it was both wise and fair to pay a
moderate compensation.
c. C. Davidson, of Quay County, was
quite sure that the delegates from the
distant counties could not attend un-
less their travelling and living ex-
penses were paid. He had conversed
with many people about this matter
and had found no opposition to the
payment of railroad fares and reason
able expenses.
j. W. Akers Of Santa Fe, concurred
in this view and M. S. Salazar, OF
Rio Arrba, made patriotic talk
relative to the value of self govern
ment. Boleslo Romero, Of Valencia,
said that the feeling there was prac-
tically unanimous in favor of holding
the convention and forming a con-
stitution. All three delegates from
Valencia will attend whenever II is
held. Gavino P. Sanchez of Mora,
and other delegates gave similar as
surances regarding the feeling in
their counties.
Regarding Government Appropriation.
Allusion was made to the fact that
the national government is now pay
ing back to New Mexico a very lib
eral sum, calculated to be the ex-
penses of the election of the consti-
tutiona delegates, which is clear gain
to the Territory, as there was really
no additional expenses on account OF
the names of delegates on the tick
cts and that the most appropriate use
Of that money is In connection with
the convention.
Committee to Confer with Legislature.
Mr.. Catron moved that a committee
of seven be appointed to prepare a
bill for the Legislature, authorizing
the meeting Of the convention early
in August, and to confer with mem
bers of the Legislature relative to
its provisions and passage. Mr., Ro-
nero added provision that the
chairman should be added to the
committee. This was carried and
the committee was appointed as fol-
lows:
T. B. Catron, of Santa Fe; f. s..
Slower. of Bernalllo; H. o. Bursdm,
of Socorro; Boleslo Romero, of Va
lencia; Gavino P. Sanchez, OF Mora;
Jose Gonzales, of Dona Ana and
y, NJ. White, of Santa Fe.
The meeting then adjourned, sub
ject to the call of the chairman.

DRAINED BY WAGE INCREASE
Surplus Will Be Derived By
Raising Minimum Loads in
Freight Cars.

Chicago, H., Feb. 6--The Record
Herald today says: Judging by the
action taken yesterday the railroads
OF the country have paved the way
to drag back into their Golfers the
millions they recently handed TO their
employees in the way of increased
wages.
The shipper is to pay the differ.
ence if the vote now being taken af.
firms the proposition to increase the
minimum load in freight cars. It is
difficult to estimate how much this
will increase the revenue of the rail.
roads, but If the minimum is in.
creased 10 per cent it is estimated
that it will mean over a hundred mil.
lion dollars annually.
Traffic men declare that while the
size of freight cars has been in
creased two and even three-fold there
has been little increase in the mini
mum load They claim that the in
crease will not hurt the shipper while
1t will add materially to the capacity
OF the railroads
The roads interested in this move
include all those east of this city
and north OF the Ohio River. If the
move is successful it will be extended
to all the railroads of the United
States.
