New Buildings.
The validation by Congress of the
bond issues of $25,000 and $4,000
has enabled the authorities of the
New Mexico Military Institute to
proceed at once with the building of
a large brick barracks for cadets.
The contract for this building was let
the first of June to well known firm
of contractors. The foundation,
which Is of solid concrete, a massive
structure within itself, has been COM
pleted, something over 100000 bricks
are on the ground, and the building
will be pushed to completion by the
first of January. 1t is to be hand
some structure, 304 feet long, 40 feet
wide and three stories high It will
furnish living quarters for cadets and
officers and is to have sixty-six rooms
besides numerous lavatories, baths
and closets.
The starting of this building is
characteristic of the energy and sound
Judgment so often displayed hereto
fore by the board of regents. Before
the money was even available, they
had engaged competent architects to
make plans for extensive buildings.
The planS were completed by the time
the money was available, 50 that no
delay was caused in advertising for
bids.
The plan as prepared by the archi-
tects is a comprehensive one and in
cludes all buildings which can be
anticipated for school of 400 stud
ents or more. The architecture is to
be all of a special design and the
buildings are to be erected of buff
brick The present barracks in
course of construction is simply a
unit in this system. 1t is two spans
of barracks which, when completed
will consist of eight spans, the whole
presenting the appearance of the
letter L. The present building will
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000
and it will no doubt be the hand
soonest school building ever erected

Prospects for Next Session.
The prospects for next session are
splendid. The institute has already
practically secured it's full enrolment
and number of applications have
been refused when the applicant was
not considered desirable material.
The institute has reached point
when it can more than ever discrimi-
nate and secure only the very best of
material. In addition to the twelve
states and territories which were rep
resensented last session, New York,
Iowa and Pennsylvania will also have

sTEAM-scHooNER" IS UNIQUE
Vessel of the Pacific Adapted to Car
ny Heavy Loads.

The steam-schooner, vessel whose
build and habits are peculiar to the
Pacific, writes Mr. Ralph D. Paine in
The Greater America" often goes
to sea with her load-line over her
hatch" which means that after her
hold has been crammed with cargo,
a deck-load of lumber 10 piled half
way up the masts. so that her skipper
puts out with the water washing over
his main deck.
Along the harbor front of Seattle
runs the story of passenger who
loped down to the wharf in hurry to
get aboard a departing steam schoon-
er. He balanced himself on the string
piece for an instant, looked down at
what little he could see of the laden
craft, and hove his gripsack down the
only opening in sight. He was about
to dive after 1t when lounger on the
wharf shouted
Hi, there, Where do you think
you're jumpin' to? That's the smoke
stack you tossed your baggage down"
WHAT" gasped the passenger. Il
thought it was the hatch"
The story has a slight flavor of
exaggeration, but it may serve to hint
that the commerce of the Pacific has
ways OF it's own.-Youth's Companion

Il was hunting quail with light gun

large bear ! was willing to pass
without speaking, but Bruin was mad
about something and bristled up for a
fight
so | let him have both barrels,
and then cut for a tree. The shot
dazed him for a minute, and then he
gave chase, and pretty soon came
clawing up after me. There was a
long. projecting limb on one side, and
when | saw him coming, / got out to
the extreme end, although 1t bent
like a reed under my weight.
"Out came the bear after me, slowly
and carefully, and with every step
the branch bent lower. When the
bear got within two yards of me
was within ten feet of the ground.
Then | dropped down, and, as the bear
shot up 20 feet in the air, | made
for home as fast as | could run"

In the great fight that is now being
waged for political honons one inn
portant thing should not be lost sight
of, namely, that only honest and true
men should be elevated to Office. In
modern politics it is not infrepuently
that certain corrupt men are elected
to fill tine most important offices with
in the gift of the people of the re-
spective states. AS TO be expected in
such cases, suits for bribery and fraud
usually follow. The urgent need OF
the times are for the men who connot
be bought, and who look upon public
Office as n most important trust. This
kind of type of men are sure to bring
honor and credit to the position which
they hold. In short, the following
lines express the whole sentiment of
choosing only the best men that can
be found to adorn political Offices:
God given men. The time demands
Strong minds, great hearts, trce faith
and willing hands;
Men whom the lusts of Office does not
kill;
Men who possess opinions and a viii;
Men who have honor, mem who VIII
