LUCK AIDS SHIPWRECKED TARS
Left Hanging over CIiG. Rope Proves
Their Salvation.

Their Salvation.
London. Nov. IA singular incident
has 20 be recorded In connection with the
wreck OF the steamer Netherholme. which
went on the rocks mead Linney Head. a
lonely part Of the Pembrokeshire coast.
The NetherhoIme. which was bound from
Liverpool 20 Barry Dock, early on Sun
day morning. struck on the reef which
connects Penyholt Stack with the main
land
The crew. fourteen in number. swan
ashore. where ,nere are cliffs rising some
seventy feet The sailors were covering
under the cliffs. when one Of them no
ticed a rope hanging from the top. One
by one they climbed safely TO the top
and TO their surprise found no one about
save their own party, nor were there
any houses in sight At daybreak the
shipwrecked sailors were discovered by
coastguards. who took them 10 Col.
Lampton's house where they were given
dry clothing and shelter. Yesterday aft
ernoon they were sent 10 their homes at
Barry
The mystery of the rope is explained
by the fact that a year ago the steam
trawler Shamrock was wrecked at this
particular spot, and the crew were hauled
up the cliff by coastguards. BY a lucky
chance the rope was not removed. and
again proved OF service TO shipwrecked
sailors
The Netherholme is badly damaged
When the vessel struck the captain was
unaware Of the new lightship of Kinney
Head. and mistook It for Lundy. although
the latter is many miles to the southwark.

my former trips to Roswell I had
walked on the side of the street far
tnest from the Record office, and
would have as soon gone into den

because 1 thought they cared or mind

full day in August 1 approached Ros-

that would have done justice to a
battle. All along the way l pictured
myself being brought back in a long
box, because / was sure to meet
Puckett, and l never doubted that my
end was in sight. We stepped off the
train at Roswell; Mullane disappear

get some breakfast. At last the fatal
moment came. Blondy Carnes said,
Let's go over to the Record and of
course l had no choice but to follow.
We passed two men in the business
Office, but neither of tiem took any
notice of us whatever. AS we went
back into the work room l kicked a
linotype slug under the door so that
it would open easily in case wished
to go home early. There he sat, his
ears sticking out at an angle of 45
degrees, his feet covering all of the
floor space not occupied by the ma
chine and his hand hiding the key
board from sight. The end was fast
approaching. Some one behind me
said, "Mr. Puckett, Mr. Carnes of the
Advocate and Mr.. Newkirk, of the
News" T nearly tainted, and then
the big kind looking man jumped up
from his seat and grabbed my hand
and said, pleased to meet you. 1 am
sorry 1 have not the time to take you
out and show you the town, but you
understand that the paper has to

MOTEL, and as the proprietor of the

three cigarettes right out on Main

"NEW YORK STORE"
WILL BE REVIVED.

Although the New York Store, un-
of c. H. Edwards, is to become a
thing of the past as soon as Mr.. Ed

the stock of goods on hand, the name
will be revived by a larger establish

Texas, to make his home.
Mr.. Snipes has bought the stock and
fixtures of the j. H. Hampton restau-
rant, formerly owned by A X Mott.
and is now in charge of that place.
He bought it merely to secure the
building, however, and along with the
deal closed another for the purchase
of the fixtures of C. H. Edwards aad
for his lease on the remaining half
of the ground floor of tie Oklahoma
building. Mr.. Snipes will secure pos
session of the Edwards room Janua-
ry 1st, and will then remove the par
tition, making one large room of the
entire first floor, and put in a large
stock of general merchandise. He
will sell everything in a general store
except groceries.

ness experience. and will no doubt
secure through his store a large and
profitable business.

THE CURE FOR WORRY.

George Harvey in the North Amer
lean Review.)
Can worry be avoided or overcome?
Is the disease durable without divine
interposition? Undoubtedly. if the the
| ory of thought-traasferenc be accep-
ted as indeed an established scientific
fact, because surely an image tending
freely-if not, in fact, with greater
readiness, because of the larger re-
ceptivity for that which is pleasing
as an image tending downward. Thus,
clearly, there may be brought into
action for success those very forces
which may or may not be irresistible,
but certainly are, as the wise doctor
observes, the most potent of earthly
life and, consequently, all that We
poor humans can summon to our aid
unless we adopt the effeminate prac-
tice of those silly persons wno con-
stantly annoy the Almighty by be-
seeching Him to tide them over their
petty difficulties. Not that their trou-
bles seem slight to them; far from it
invariably they are more serious than
any others can possibly be; but the
mere certainty that, if God should
stamp them out personally, instead
of leaving such work, as He does and
ought, to nature, other trials of no
less consequence would promptly
arise, shows clearly enough that, in
reality, all individual tribulation is
trif1ing.
Occasional reflection upon this
great truth will do much to drive
away the bad fairy and open the way
out of dependency; but better yet
is constant realization that one can
do for either himself or others only
that which lies within him to per-
form, and, having satisfied himself
on that score, ne possesses an inal-
ienable right to disregard all possible
consequences, and need give them no
more consideration than Sagacious
person accords idle speculation as to
whether, when he awakes, he will
find himself in heaven or in hell. Sup
plement knowledge of the recognized
folly of regret with appreciation of
the fact that worry is never over ac-
tual, but always over imaginary, ills,
and is therefore as unnecessary as it
is unwise and inefficient, and long
step will be taken towards the def |
mite elimination of the chief bane of |

of power, needs power which was de-
liberately withheld by the states and
the people when the national govern
ment was created True. there is a
way to transfer that power from the
states to the Federal government, if
the people wish it, but it may well
De said that no amount of labor
would persuade the people of the
states to surrender their home rule
powers in sufficient measure to meet
views of the executive as to the IA
tional necessity. By what process of
reasoning the executive has reached
the conclusion that for the various
departments of the Federal govern
ment to seize power not granted by
the states and the people is to protect
and defend the constitution | know
not
That ne must have reached it By
some route, his character as a man,
his career as an official and the bold
ness of his advocacy attests. He is
not attempting to acquire power by
deceiving the people With perfect
frankness he states what he thinks
ought to be done, and how he pro-
poses it shall be done. With equal
fl ankness those of us who love the
constitution and revere not alone the
memory but the wisdom of it's fran
ers. who believe that the powers
were wisely distributed between the
states and the Federal government,
and deem that all past history proves
it, should speak.
MANY of the people have not found
time to study the history and the gen
esis of the constitution. Hence they
have no adequate conception of the
perils the trainers sought to avoid by
keeping the powers of the several
branches of government separate and
distinct. They are, therefore, natural
~ inclined to be impressed with the
suggestion that the constitution did
very well when it was made, but tnat
we have outgrown it, and hence, the
of the government
and not the people may as well
change it at their pleasure. If then,
there were no immediate danger of
an effective seizure of powers, we
should, to protect the future, meet
the assaults from the Federalists
with equal vigor.
They are steadily at work teach |
ing and preaching the doctrines of
their sect. So those opposed to their |
views should sacrifice any party feel
ing and interest and enter the lists |
as open champions of our constitu
rional system in its integrity.
THE time to do it is now. Some |
other year, aye, even next year, may
be too late"

ROSWELL HAS OFFERED
100000 FOR ROAD

From FIT. Worth Record.
After having secured a large bonus
and right of way, Edward Kennedy
well known promoter of Houston
departed for Chicago to interest a
construction company in the building
of new line of railroad from Ros-
well, New Mexico, to Lubbock, Tex
a distance of 12O miles. The new rail
road will tbe known as the Roswell
& Eastern. and it's construction is
now regarded as a certainty, says the
Houston Post.
By the building of this line Roswell
gets a competitor to its only other
eastern, which is Santa Fe proper
ty. In addition it will be placed in
touch with a large and growing ter
ritory now entirely without railroad
facilities. Realizing the advantages to
be derived by the road, the citizens
of Roswell have, it is said, subscrib-
ed 100000 as well as securing the
right of way for the road.
The road will run almost due east
to Lubbock, the county seat of the
county of the same name. 1t will pass
through the counties of Cochran and
Hartly. Neither .of the counties nam
ed has any railroads and there is a
vast territory contiguous thereto
which also lacks such railroad facil-
tiles.
The building of a railroad through
these counties will be a great factor
il their upbuildiag. The road will
have a valuable connection at Ros
well. 1t will be on direct line to
Fort Worth.
Mr.. Kennedy was the promoter of
the Houston. Sabine and Red River
Valley road, the assets of which have
been sold to Fremont Hill to form a
part of the Yanlton Southern railway
which is projected from Yankton. S.
Dakota to the Gulf.

PRESS
FIGHTING THE STRIKE.

New York, Sept. 18.-At the annual
meeting of the members of the Asso-
ciated Press held here today, a reso-
luton was unanimously adopted ap-
proving the course of the officers of
the Associated Press in dealing with
the telegraph operators strike.
According to the statement of Gen
eral Manager Melville e. Stone, only
50 of $50 operators employed in the
eastern division of the Associated
Press went out on strike, and 121 con
tinued at work. In the central and
western divisions the proportion of
strikers is admittedly much larger,
but it is stated that not over half of
the nearly 400 operators of the Asso-
ciated Press quit work, and that the
places of the strikers have in most
places been acceptably filled.
(All this is very consoling to the
Daily Record, which has not receiv-
ed a line of telegraph since the strike
began.-Ed.)

The company has some splendid

SWEEPING VICTORY
FOR THE DEMOCRATS

Oklahoma City, Sept. 1S.-Tne re-
turns from yesterdays election that
arrived today and tonight continue to
be of the same tenor, that the consti-
tuition has been adopted by vote of
3 to 1; that prohibition has carried
by at least 10000, and that the whole
Democratic state ticket, headed by
Charles N. Haskell, of Muskogee, has
been elected by majority of more
tnan 10000. In the congressional cleo
tions the Democrats seem to have
four of the five representatives, ac-
cording to the returns received to-
night.
The election of a Democratic leg
islature, which now seems certain,
insures the election of T. P. Gore, the
blind orator, and R. L. Owen, nomi-
mated at the primaries in June for
United States senators.

WHAT HAS BEEN ACCOM-
PLlSHED IN THREE YEARS

From Hagerman Messenger.
In the last three years Hagerman
and the vicinity has undergone a
great change, a change that very few
ever expected to see inside of ten
Sears. Hagerman three years ago was
you might say just a wide place in
the road. There were few improved
Iarms around here then, not many.
Today there is aot to exceed 100 ac-
res under the Hagerman canal that
is not under cultivation. This canal,
it will be remembered, irrigates over
5000 acres in the vicinity of Hager-
man. Farm house after farm house
has been erected, and thousands of
acres have been seeded to alfalfa and
by the canal, great many artesian
wells nave been drilled, and land that
was once considered worthless has
been converted into fine farms.
Hagerman, while it has not advanc-
ed as rapidly as the country. is today
one of the best towns in the Pecos
Valley. All this development has been
done in the last three years. 1t would
have taken ten years to do this work
in the states where one mas to de-
pend on rainfall for the production
of crops. In the next three years we
can expect even greater improve
ments than those that have taken
place in the three years just passed.
The vicinity of Hagerman is destined
to be one large garden, and what is
true of Hagerman is true of every
part of the Pecos Valley upon which
water can be put
