part of building which may be hab-
table either as business or resi-
dence location. This includes build
ings in course of construction. At
the time copy for the directory is
turned over printer, and up to :he
minute that the publication goes to
the bindery repeated calls are made
at these "vacants." In this manner
all changes are caught up to the
time OF delivery, for any one either
moving into the city or changing
their address must of necessity
either build or move into quarters

In many instances at the dme
names were taken the publishers
were informed that change was
contemplated. Foot notes have been
made and these will be thoroughly
recanvassed as the name turns up
in the compilation Of the work.

Here is a new one-the very lat
est: When the crowd in the lobby
Of the Albany hotel was at its
height, about nine o'clock Satur-
day night, man whose appearance
indicated that he was about sixty
five years of age, of unsteady step.
and poorly dressed, hobbled slowly in
through the Stout street entrance.
The old man, whose face bespoke
respectability. although his clothes
did not, made his way toward the
lobby.
Suddenly he was seen to reel, and
then sank to the floor.
The crowd quickly gathered around
him, and as they looked at his oale
face and wrinkled brow, pity was ex-
pressed Two men-the first to
reach the old man-were Gene Cum
mings, the new house detective. and
Sheriff H. w. Potter. Of otero coun-
ty.
AS they were about to carry him
to a seat near the elevator, an aged
and fairly well-dressed woman
stepped up and quickly exclaimed:
why, the poor man. He is Ill.
and has no place to sleep
With this remark she removed
the old mans hat from his head and
began circulating about the crowded
lobby for subscriptions.
Many contributed nickles. dimes,
quarters and half dollars.
