Tucumcari last year for the benz
fit of her health and for several
months Mrs. Patty improved, but

three daughters and other relatives
and many friends, whose hearts are
made sad because of her death.

of the German Centre party. Baron
Won Hertling and other German cler-
ical deputies are participating in it.
As is the custom. the pope has large

summer season, and this in a large

a serious disappointment. But of

As we stand on the threshold of an- other year, pausing for while to medi- tate over the events which have tram spired in our midst, and thinking of events wich might have transpired but hand to write editorial about it. The year of 1907 is almost used up and is frayed and frizzled, as you might say, while 1908 is jest starting in fresh and new. What be we agoing to do with, it !! Be we agoing to fritter it away and put of doing things whether we intend to or not as we done with our last year Or be we agoing to hitch up our trases of endeavor, roll up our sleeves, spit on our hands and lick in and accomplish something? This momentshious quest shion is something to ponder over and to be desided quickly.
 Now IS the time to make new reso- lutschions If anybody has any resolut- shions to make they usually put it of until the New Year and then start in with clean mise page in life's chronicle wich they will endeavor 10 keep unspot- ted and immaculate from the world for a short time, or longer if possible Mak- ing new resolutshions is mighty con- venient for some and with others it is regular nuisance and a gross and con- frmed habit. Now, there's Bill Yates, who's most as bad as Bill Hepburn. Bill will git as full. as goat one day and treat everybuddy whot will be treat ed (and that is most every male human in Bingville) and the next day swear of drinking and treating;4 or if he don't swear off drinking hS will swear of treating and the next week will do the same thing If Bill Yates couldn't take his sollem oath on New Years that he wouldn't never let another drop of lick CT wet his whissel, as long as he drew breth, so help him, why he wouldn't feel natural. Hen Weathersby always makes resolutshion every new year not to trust any more and whot is the result? Hens trade falls off immediate and nobuddy comes to the store except to play checkers and old sledge and eat his crackers. This is where a good resolutshion is awful poor one.
 January 1st great many of our resi- dents give up their worst vices and re- main good two weeks It is also sort 1 of reckoning and cleaning-up day of accounts in Bingville and more money e4ialiSSS iaiiho pli Nd5 liidt oAiJ other time of the year, As proof of | this, last January 1st, A. M. we had $lo.54 paid us on back subscriptions and in the afternoon we had the sheriff to call on us and demand $2l.42 or he would take our Bugle offs and we would take the consequences. If Jared Wins low hadn't come in at this critical junck- ture and loaned us $500, like as not we L ac1.e
 ton hand press in scrap heap. while our offs cat would have been left with out home Thus as we stand on the -ew brink of 1908 looking forward and back ward, with new hope in our eyes, we would urge our army sof readers to swear off something or other. It will do you good and mebbe someone else too, and help you to celebrate the day in appropriate manner. There be lots of things you can swear off on. For instants, you can swear off on being away back on your subscriptshion to the Busle. Why don't you come to

Shooting MatCb

They was Xmas shooting match for turkey in Birch Holler back of the town yesterday. Brent Williams he fur nisht the turkey and charged the boys 5 cts. per shot at a piece of tin the size of a dollar stuck agin a board 100 yds. away. They was a large number of our most expert marksrnan present and paid cts. to get shot at the mark to win the turkey. Some took several shots and some took more.
 Old Jabe Homans of Slab City heerd about it and he walkt all the way up to take part bringing his long muzzle loadin squirl rife with him. Jabe can't shoot as strats as he did once. He tuk three shots and mist the entire bord each time. Brad Tucker come within a inch of the mark and said if the rife hadn't of went of so all fired soon he would have hit it plum in the center. Lafe Whittacre he clipt the tin with a bullet and got tho turkey, having only shot three times and it costing him only Is cts. Lafe was much tlckeled to win, but there was con siddable dissatisfackshion among the oth- CTS who said it was all set up job. Brent who got up the match got some think like $4 outen the turkey and he only paid 25 cts. for 1t last spring and fatted it up for the occashion. They is profit to be made in shootin matches.

The musici< sounded tur- rible loud in the church. but Jed said this was owing to its awful akoostick properties.
