doubt be delivered. Hon. H. B. Fergus
son and Territorial Chairman A. A.
Jones have already engaged quarters.
Mr.. Ferguson will be accompanied
by his daughter.
The railroad tickets will be on sale
all over the Territory on the Sth, and
will be good until the 18th, with the
privilege of extension for longer
time. The convention will probably
last two days, although, of course,
this is merely conjecture. The Terri

by dynamite today. A charge Of fifty
pounds was discharged under the
first span,. twisting the huge girders
and practically destroying the whole
structure.
Today's outrage followed an unsuc-
cessful attempt yesterday to wreck a
bridge on the same railroad spanning
Harlem river. The building of the
bridge has been for many months the
scene of almost constant labor trou-
bles. 1t is alleged that striking work
men made frequent threats to blow
it up unless their grievances were
adjusted, consequently there were
three watchmen at the bridge. Two
of them were only fifty feet away
when the explosion occurred, and
were thrown to the ground, but
scramb bling to their feet saw two men
running away. A fusillade of shots
were sent after them, but they es-
capped. 1t will take two months to re-
pair the damage done.

PLANS FOR ENTERTAINMENT
OF DEMOCRATIC DELEGATES.

As has already been announced
through the Record the Democratic
Territorial convention will be held
in Roswell ON June 10th, at ten
o'clock in the morning. Special rates
of one and one-ffth fare for the round
trip have been made by the railroads,
and it is expected that the attend
ance will be large. There will be
225 delegates selected to this conven-
ton and the greater part of them will
come. In addition many visitors will
be attracted by the low rates, and
the delegates are expected in many
cases to bring their wives with them.
Locally the arrangements have
gone forward, and within a few days
all will be ready. The place of the
convention has not been definitely
selected, but it will be held in either
the court house or the Auditorium
probably the latter. The committee
on badges is at work and the badges
will be selected and ordered within
a few days.
This convention is called for a num-
Der of purposes. 1t will select. six
delegates to the national convention
to be held in Denver July 7th, and
at which the Democratic candidates
for President and Vice-President of
the United States will be selected
The Democratic candidate for delegate
to congress will also be selected, the
man who is to beat "BulT' Andrews.
Also a national committeeman from
the territory will be selected and the
Territorial Democratic committee.
This convention is the first Terri
torial convention to be held east of
the Rio Grande river and it is espe-
cially urged that all citizens take part
in the effort to make it pleasant for
the delegates while in our midst. 1t
is understood that a smoker will be
held at the Commercial Club on the
night of the 10th, and plans are also
being laid to take the delegates on a
trip through the farming lands ar
ound Roswell.
Many of the most noted speakers
of the Territory will be here and a

TERRIBLE RAILROAD
ACCIDENT IN BELGIUM.

Antwerp, May 21.-The worst rail
road catastrophe ever recorded in
Belgium occurred near Contich, six
miles southeast of Antwerp this NOR
ming, when because of misplaced
switch the Antwerp express, runnin s
fifty miles an hour, crashed into a
train loaded with pilgrims Oh a sid
ing. Every car of the pilgrim train,
excepting the foremost one, was tel
escoped. The cars were literally
ground to pieces, and practically all
the passengers killed or badly iniur-
ed. About fifty dead have already
been removed from the wreck, and
succor is being extended 70 more
than a hundred injured. Many help
less persons are still pinned under
the debris, and the scene is one of
horror beyond description.
The collision occurred just as the
express train from Antwerp to Brus-
sells was entering the depot at Cor
itch. The train loaded with pilgrims
was bound for the local Shrine turn
bout.
Up to four O'Clock this afternoon
So dead and 70 wounded had been
removed7 from the wreckage. The to
tai number of dead is now placed at
fifty and the wounded at over hun
dred. The engineer and fireman of
the express were killed outright.

NEW YORK SHORT OF
GOLD FOR EXPORT.

New York, May Pin connection
with the exhaustion of the New York
assay Offices supply of gold bars
available for export to Europe, it be-
came known that a suggestion was
made to the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry through the New York assay Office,
that a tax be put on gold bars sufTi-
cient to check the outflow of gold to
Europe. The Secretary of the Treasu-
ry took the matter under advisement
a1d decided against the suggestion.
which was tending to impair New

Salt as a Fertilizer

Salt has long been recognized as a
valuable fertilizing agent, especially
for use on light, sandy or worn-out
land. 1t is claimed that an oat crop
on such soil is more than doubled
by the use of salt.
Farmers of Northern Vermont have
been accustomed for many years to
obtain their Fertilizing Salt of G. S.
Page of Hyde Park, VI. The Salt he
sells is that which has been used on
Hides, Skins, ETC., in his hidehouse
and contains more Or less waste mat
ter that really adds to it's fertilizing
value. Last year the demand far
exceeded the supply and Mr.. Pages
stock was exhausted early in the sea-
son so that he was obliged to disap-
point many farmers who sent in their
orders late. 1t is advisable, there
fore, that farmers who intend using
Pages Salt this season should place
their orders early.
The price this year is only $500 per
ton, f. o. b. Hyde Park. The railroad
company makes an especially low rate
on twelve ton carloads. If you will
write Mr.. Page he will tell you the
exact rate to your station.

Itching, Burning Skin Disease
Routed without Use Of
Injurious Drugs.
Great inventors have often been
praised for surrendering the secrets
of their discoveries. Practically the
same thing happened in the medical
world in the case of DR.. Decatur ID.
Dennis, the eminent skin specialist OF
Chicago.
DR. Dennis, in his own Office prac-
tice, discovered that pure vegetable
oil of wintergreen, properly mixed
with other simple remedies, was
practically sure specific for Eczema,
psoriasis, barber's itch, salt rheum,
and other itching skin diseases. But
the oil of wintergreen alone was found
ineffective. 1t required other mild
ingredients such as glycerine and
thymol compounded with the winter
green to produce the real eczema
cure.
This compounded D. D. D. Prescrip-
ton positively takes away the itch at
once-the instant it is applied to the
skin. This vegetable liquid does
awav with deleterious drugs SO long
used in an attempt to doctor the
blood. whereas modern science has
determined that eczema is first and
all the time skin disease.

the merits of D. D. D. Prescription,
