A most pleasant surprise was
on 0. F. Book, who re-
sides five and a half miles north
west Of Estancia last Saturday,
his birthday anniversary, in the
way of a postcard shower His
friends in Oklahoma, Kansas,
Colorado and a few other states,
mailed cards to him so that they
hould reach him on that day.
There were embossed cards and
plain cards, sombre cards and
funny cards, pretty cards, and
some not so pretty, all kinds so
many in fact that his box at the
postoffice was fairly bursting.
And on Monday when he was in
town again, he received some
more. Up till then he had receiv-
edffty-tWo, and the end was not
In sight.
After having been away froa
his old home at Saltwater, Okla
homa, for some time, he is more
than pleased to know that his
old friends have so we'll remem-
bered him. And in return wishes
them a happy Easter-tide.

Another Rabbit Drive.

On Thursday, April 8th, will
0ccur another rabbit drive eight
miles northeast Of Estancia. The
participants are asked 10 meet
with baskets well filed for bas-
ket dinner on the grounds. The
drive will take place in the sand
nils toward the east.
While the drive last Friday was
successful, the number Of rabbits
driven was much smaller than
heretofore, Without doubt the
rabbits are being driven out of
the more thicEly s2ttled com
murities, to The hills, where
they arc less frequently disturb
ed. It's the intention Of those
in charge Of the drive, to follow
the rabbits into the more sparse
ly settled districts and sIay them
there.

Death Of Friend Of Horses

gell, editor of Our Dumb Ami
mails and president and moving
spirit Of several of the largest
societies for the protection of
dumb animals in the United
States, the horse, the cat and the
dog have lost one of their best
friends, and mankind in general
,one Of it's large hearted and great
|souled brothers. During life
of more than four score years,
the one ambition of Mr.. Angel
has been to speak for those
who cannot speak for themsel-
ves.' His work has not been
computed in dollars and cents
it was beyond that. An ordinari-
,y successful business man would
say that the life Of George T.
Angel had not been a success,
/ as measured in dollars and cents,
for he died a comparatively poor
man, but measured by the STAN
dard of the Golden Rule, very
few lives could be found to com
pare with his. For a number of
years he has been the editor of
Our Dumb Animals which he
has been sending to every editor
throughout the United States and
a number of foreign countries,
and through them reaching mil
lions Of readers. With more
Angels Of this class on earth,
there would be more thoughtful
people amongst us.
Editorially the Ell Paso Herald
has the following to say, con-
cerning the life of Mr., Angel:
He was essentially a citizen of
the world, but at Boston, Mass,
where he had long made his
home, and where his body was
laid away, there was a remarka-
bic scene on the day Of his
funeral. Ten thousand horses
in the streets of the metropolitan
district wore mourning resets in
memory of their dead friend.
Boston has a Work Horse Parade
associatio~ o~-,~"i~od by Mr.. An
gell, and this society took charge
of the distribution of the mourn
ing badges.
Thirty prize winning horses in
the parade Of last May were as
sembled in Copley square, and
wearing only brides and the
mourning resets, they joined the
funeral procession and made &
fitting escort for the hearse al
the way to the cemetery.
The work George r. ANGEL die
will endure forever and grow anC
multiply. 1t is hard to estimate
the effect produced by one sin
gle episode in Angell's work, the
distribution of millions of copies
Of the book Black Beauty t
school children and working me1
all over the United States, an(
all over the world in 80 differen
languages. His work was o
course intimately bound up als'
with the great work Of child re
lief, and the fine sentiment
aroused by George T. Angell
work for the dumb animals ne
cessarily had their reaction in in
creasing the sum of human char
ity and kindliness in social an
family relations throughout tn
world.
