AUTO RACE FROM
PEKIN TO PARIS.

Pekin, China, June TO- All is in
readiness today for the start of the
eighteen automobilists entered in the
Pekin-to-Paris race. the longest ever
undertaken since the invention of the
motor car. The route lies through the
widest portions of the Cobb desert
and drought a part OF Siberia,
passing thence across the Ural
mountains, through southern Russia
and Germany, to the final stretch in
France. While the distance between
Pekin and Paris is $500 miles, it is
believed that frequent turns to avoid
impossible mountains and bodies of
water will bring the total distance
travelled by the adventursome tourists
to fully 5000 miles. All the foreign
residents of Peki1 will join with the
French, Italian and Russian ministers
in giving the competitors an enthusiast
tic farewell.
From Pekin the automobilists will
proceed TO Kalgan, 125 miles distant
and thence to Urga over the imperial
highway, over which they have been
granted right OF way by the great
white car. With the aid of the Rus
sian government, which has shown
great interest in the race the travel
ers will be able to give the passwords
whicn consist of the names of two
officers of the Cobb desert province,
Mergevan Loubson Dorchi1e Lama
and Amnegan Gombre Darga. Friends
of the tourists express the fear that
if they are often called upon to pro-
nounce these jaw-breaking cognomens
their journey will be seriously retard
ed.
Urga is a veritable oasis in a desert
and there the Automobiles will re-
ceive a hearty reception from the Rus
sian officials and DR.. G~rinswitch, the
Club of France. From Urga the
route leads to Kiakhta and thence to
Missoya, where the cars will be fer
ried across the Lake Baikal to Irutsk
Thence the rack lies along the Trans
Siberian railway to Moscow, and the
IouIlSIS VIII dlleIupL 70 OuCuO lue
trains in the matter of speed.
Among the competitors is Prince
Borghese of Italy, one of the most in
trepid of European automobilists.
Courmier, winner of the Paris-Bor-
deaux race, left Pekin some time ago
in charge of a camel caravan with
supplies of petrol, which he las dis
tributed along the route. In Siberia
and Russia the government has es-
tablished small stations to provide
supplies for the benefit of the racers.
Most of the competitors travelled here
on the Trans-Siberian railway, having
been supplied with free transportation
by the order of the car.

MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS.

"Mr. Roosevelt is a candidate for
reelection, and has been a candidate
for some time. The impression is
growing that he is the only man able
to handle the peculiar situation that
has developed in h United States
in the last few years. I am convinc-
ed that he is the only man with whom
the Republicans can beat Bryan.
Though 1 am a strong Republican,
I believe that Mr.. Bryan would make
a good president, notwithstanding he
has queer ideas occasionally. He is
the strongest man the Democrats
have, and, unlike Roosevelt, he does
not go around with the big stick.
Just before 1 left home 1 had an
interview with several Republican
leaders. Their chief fea is of Mr..
Bryan's growing strength. 1 don't
think Governor Hughes would make
any show against him. dom doubt
MI. Bryan would be able to raise a
larger campaign fund than Mr..
Roosevelt.
ACcPCSL ~ Aho OPN
Mr.. Roosevelt is a candidate for re
election, Mr.. Dorsey does not stand
alone. Thousands of men in different
parts of the country share that opin.
ion with him. Personally, we have
never heretofore given any credence to
that notion. He has said he was not
a candidate, and would not be a can
didate, and we have believed most
implicitly everything he said. We
have regarded him as a man ~actuated
in all Things by the very highest
ideals of truth, honor and justice. But
recent events have forced Upon us
much against our will, the conviction
that. even with Mr.. Roosevelt, cir
cumstances alter cases.

INDIVIDUAL EFFORT
I'M RlJIl DING A CITY

Individual effort counts in anything.
first have the effort of b Individual.
This is especially true in the building
of a city. In commenting along this
line, the Ell Paso Herald says:
In the city betterment work, aimed
at making Ell Paso a better place to
live in, organized effort is always the
most effective method. Individuals
working alone can do but little to stir
up that powerful community spirit
that makes things go, and that car
ries progressive projects to cces
But let us not overlook the fact
that individual example is better than
precept, and TIA the earnest work of
one man, accomplishing actual results
is better than the unsupported talk
of 100 mel.
We are inclined to be initiative,
and fashions and fads quickly spread.
In street and garden improvement, as
in clothes, style is catching, and here
is where womaa's work is specially
valuable.
1t is all right to form improvement
societies, and discuss matters of broad
public concern. But if ZACH woman
would o after her own front and
back yard, care for a few flowers or
trees, and see that the grass is kept
trimmed, there would he a mighty
change in the aspect of the city. 1t is
woman's privilege to suggest the bet
ter way, and to urge the finer things
of life upon the men who are too apt
to be e~ngrossed with their own bust
ness affairs.
1t is tle sum of units that makes a
city, and it rests as mucn upon indi-
vidual h~ouseholders as upon the city
government, to make the city attrac-
tive. Let each householder look after
his own space, and then he will be in
better position to criticise his neigh
bors, and condemn the shortcomings
of public officials.

GOOD READING.

from santa re 6dSlc-
The resolution, passed in Novem-
Der, 1901, by the Board of Public
Lands of New Mexico, which is pub
lished on another page in this issue
will be interesting reading to the peo-
pie of the Territory. Those who have
beel led to believe that Hagerman
alone was responsible for selling tim
Der lands worth 500 per acre for So
per acre will doubtless be somewhat
SURPRISED to know that he and board
away back in 1901, consisting of Mig
uel A. Otero, A. A. Keen and Edward
ing the New Mexico Lumber Compa-
ny and it's associates the exclusive
right to purchase any and all timber
lands belonging to the Territory at
SO per acre. excepting only the lands
on which the board a previously
given an option to w. H. Andrews
and his associates.
The consideration named in this
resolution was the deposit OF $1,000
by this company with the secretary
OF the board, and this money was to
be forfeited to the Territory, provid-
ed the company failed to purchase
the lands at the price of So per acre.
There appears to be no record of this
money having been turned over to
the Territorial treasury; the time of
the option expired more than five
years ago, and it does not appear
tina the company purchased the
lands. The $1,000 appears to have
been lost in the excitement. This
resolution proves that the land board
at thai time was willing to sell all
of the valuable timber land in New
Mexico at So pei acre, and If the New
Mexico Lumber & Development Co.
had raised the money and had pro-
duced enough dummy applicants for
the land. New Mexico would have
been without timber land five years
ago. There are more interesting mat
ters IN connection with New Mexico's
timber lands.

Weeks to Eiaht in Denver.

Cripple Creek, Col, June 1O.-Den-
yer will be the scene this week of one
of the fastest bouts between little
fellows ever pulled of in the Rocky
mountain district. Freddie Weeks, who
recently created a sensation in the
East by his a IS aid clever work, will
go up against Jimmy Walsh Friday
night under the auspices of the Co
liseum Athletic club of Denver. Weeks
has been doing his training near here
and is in the best of condition for the
battle. Hundreds of Cripple Creek
and Victor sports will go up to Denver
to witness the battle and will be pre-
pared to literally back their conf
dence in the Cripple Creek boy. A
match of considerable local interest
has been arranged to take place at
Victor tomorrow night, when Kid Gil
sey, Ct Denver. will fight Luke Kel-
log.

Elephantine is an island of the Nile

cient curiosities A sort of sanctuary
decorated with miniature obelisks and
covering a spot which was used for
burying the bodies of sacred animals
was found. These animals proved to
be rams carefully mummified and
buried In sarcophagi of granite. The
wrappings of the mummies are gilded
and ornamented with painted scenes
of a NEUROLOGICAL character and bear
inscriptions. The ram was among the
sacred animals OF Egypt, and seems to
have been especially sacred TO the
principal deity of the island. Many
fragments of texts have been found.
They are inscribed upon pieces of
pottery and known as ostraca. The
inscriptions are in hieroglyphic Cop
tic, Greek and Arab. They show that
as far back as the fifth century, b. c.,
the island was inhabited by Jews
Papyrus inscriptions had proved this
fact, but the new discoveries show just
what quarter belonged to the Jews.
According to the records. Jewish
temple must have existed in this To-
cality and now is being looked for by
the Investigators.

AN ESSENTIAL FACTOR.
The Dairy Woman and the Part She
Has Had in Developing the
Dairy Cow.

II is doubtful II any of the valuable
breeds of dairy cows could have been
produced without the help of women.
That Ia, these breeds have been
brought to their high state of perfec-
ton because the people that have
had the care of them for centuries
have been mostly women. The cows
OF the Channel Islands and the cows
of Holland have been under the super.
vision of women for so long time
that the memory of man runneth not
to the contrary"
Imagine, says Farmers Review,
some of our western cowboys trying
to develop a breed of dairy cows. Any
dairy breed they might evolve would
have the ability to run a four-minute
gait and to scale fences with little
trouble. The COW naturally partakes
something of the nature of the one
that has charge of her. Kindness has
made the Dutch COW and the Jersey
COW kind. Harshness would have
made them into animals that few
could milk. Gentleness has made
them Of a quiet disposition, inclined
to chew the cud in contentment. in a
feeling of perfect security. This con-
tentment has made the work of the
mammary glands easy. and great capa-
cities for the production of milk and
cream have been evolved.
The United States is little likely to
have distinctive breed of dairy
cows. In the main, our cows here
are in the care of men. especially in
the larger dairy establishments. On
the farms where women milk that is
the only part they have In dairying.
Men have most of the care of the ami
mails.
The dairy woman is best adapted
to take care of the dairy COW. If
more women take up dairying as an
occupation 1t will be a good thing for
the dairy interests. They appreciate
the value OF the fine points in dairy
ing, and the fine points are what reg
ulate the value of the dairy output.
