Here's to the man whose hand
Is firm when he clasps your own-
Like a grip OF steel

Puts the somber clouds to rout-
The man who's fair
And kind and square,
To the one that's down and out.

ONE MANS OPPORTUNITY.

From Fort Worth Record.
A great deal has been written and
aid about opportunity and the chan
ces the young man of today has in
comparison with the chances that
young men had several years ago.
And along with all that has been said
and written is a lot of foolishness
THAT could have no other than a bane-
full effect upon the young man if he
happens to be of the sort that is look
ing for opportunity in the beaten
paths that the majority of the human
race is blindly travelling. Once in a
while a young man, by sheer force
of character and of application, will
do some one thing better than any 9th
when he does this people call him
lucky and some of them envy aim.
But few of them stop to taxi a close
look at the ann in which b young
man accomplished his uccess Those
who do indulge in this sort of a scru-
thy discover that the success came
as a result of the closest application
and the hardest kind of work
The greater number of the honest
of the recent years of won
derfui development in this country
have been attained by men who work
ed while other were asleep and who
never ceased in their e~ndeavors until
the object of their labors was attained

PLEASED WITH APP
POINTMENT OF CURRY.

The alleged attack" referred to
in the following letter, was SO far as
the Record was concerned merely a
the paper to publish the things said
about Mr.. Curry by some of the citi-
zens of his own town. So far as Mr..
Curry personally is concerned, we
are still "ol the fence" and propose
10 tell the story as tits told to us.
If Mr.. Curry lands for good govern
meat, clean business administration
of Territorial affairs, then the Rec
ord will support him, whether he be
Republican or Democrat. We are en-
listed for the cause, and do not care
who performs the service.
A Communication.
ITO the Editor Roswell Record,
philadelphia, Pa, Apr. &c, 1907.
Roswell, N. NJ.
Dear Sir 1t is with n most
sincere regret that l have noticed in
your issue of April 22nd the harsh
and unjust criticisms of Governor
Curry.
LAS one of the very oldest citizens
of Roswell and as a property holder
of your Territory. l deplore the at
tack on Governor Curry, n beg to
state in return, that as a local Off
cial, Territorial delegate and as pres
ident of the Territorial Council, he
acquitted himself by an honest, impair
tial and efficient administration of
the public duties entrusted to him by
the people of New Mexico, and Ros-
we'll in particular owes him a great
deal of thanks for the many benefits
she now enjoys. The Military Insti-
tute and others might be mentioned
as some of Governor Curry's favors
to the city of Roswell in particular.
Since Governor Curry's absence from
with distinction in the military aid
civil branches of the Federal govern
ment, and after his long and arduous
service in the Philippine Islands,
where he held many executive
offices, displaying energy, courage,
ability and staunch integrity in the
of his duties.
The President of the U1ited States
does and has I'm this case appointed
a clean and efficient official, n has
by his appointment of George Curry
to the governorship of the Territory
of New Mexico. honored the man and
conferred a great favor on the peo-
pie of the Territory. Sincerely yours.

In an article entitled "Dogdom's
Four Hundred" by r. F. Mayhem, in
Everybody's. the writer deplores the
mastiff's loss of prestige:
Some breeds there are he writes,
that have been driven into obscur-
lty by the unbridled craving of breed
ers for particular properties. Most
lamentable of these is the case of
the mastiff, who, Is or 20 years ago,
was the king of the heavy brigade.
Size and massive heads became the
alpha and omega of the breeders. II"
crease in size resulted in numbering,
overfed apathetics, and could not get
out of their own way and only by
an effort could support their catfish
carcasses on sprawling legs and splay
feet. And in the intensity of desire
to produce massive heads the hither
end of the wretched animal was for
gotten, and paralyzed or semipar-
alyzed hindquarters were the result.
Hence the downfall of the mastiff and,
in a measure, of the ST. Bernard.
Their former position in the dog
world is now occupied by the Great
Dane, deerhound and the Russian wolf
hound"

APPROVE NEW FRENCH LAW.
Youth of the Country Emancipated
by Measure.

"The youth of France" says Paris
paper, "applauds the French law
makers because of the bill which was
recently passed wiping out vener-
able clause in the Code Napoleon"
The new law provides that "a mar
riage contract may be entered into be-
tween man and woman, each being
q years DID," without the consent of
the parents of either. This" says the
French writer, ''is long step toward
the equality of man with woman. The
woman, according to the old law, was
fully competent to make marriage
agreement at 21, but the man, al
though of age in all other respects at
that time of his life, was compelled to
wait four years if at 81 his parents
refused to consent to his marriage.
Children love their parents just as
much as they ever did" says the
writer but the abrogation of the law
shows that the day of blind submissive
ness is over and that the word Sub
iect' applied in the family or the state
has a bad and musty taste"

Eugene Moriarity, who seemed to
be a fixture in the Massachusetts
legislature some years ago, was at one
time on the Worcester school board.
A fellow member, the Rev. D. O..
Mears, more than hinted at one meet
ing that there were altogether too
many Irish names on the list of Wor-
cester teachers. The charge passed
unchallenged at the time, but at the
next meeting up rose Mr.. Moriarity
with this little gem:
"Mr. President, at the last meeting
of the board some one intimated that
there were too many Irish names on
our list of teachers. The next day 1
went up to the public library and saw
Librarian Green and asked if he had
q dictionary of American names.
"I have he said.
"Is it complete?'
"It is, was the answer.
"'Can | take it homer
"'You can,' he said.

searched it through from cover to
cover. | found no Mears in the book,
but found that Michael Moriarity

The ground is usually germ free at
depth of two yards, but living bac-
terra brought to the notice of the
French academy by DIR. M. Boudoin
were derived from depth of more
than ten yards in earth that had been
undisturbed for nearly 1900 years.
An old Gallic-Roman grave near
Troussepoi, in Vendee, contained sew
eral charred corpses, and skeletons Of
goats, dogs and cows. Cultures Of
the enveloping dust, mixture of sand
and water with remains OF skins and
bristles, gave the coli bacillus and
various species Of sphareo bacteria,

part of the house and garden and
such a number of ingenious contriv-

most solved the domestic servant
problem.
A telephone connects every part Of
the premises with the garden gate.
As soon as a visitor rings he hears
the inquiry: Who is there?" When
he has given his name the master
welcomes him through the telephone
and the gate opens, and again closes
when the visitor has entered. In the
vestibule, before he is aware Of it,
magic brushes clean his boots, and
a mysterious voice tells him where to
find the master of the house. The lat.
ter may be in his study taking a cup

The inventor of the magic house
has not yet altogether dispensed with
servants, but while waiting for their
entire abolition he is constantly with
in earshot of the maid, the cook and
the gardener, and the ubiquitous tele
phone transmits to him faithfully
every word they say to each other
with the result that they dare not say
one disparaging word about their
master unless they are miles away
from him.
