half before Judge Lawlor and renewed
the motion for A delay OF 120 days for
the preparation OF bill OF exceptions
on which 10 base his appeal from his

New Mexico.

The country now called Mexico was not so called till 1910, when the revolt against Spain began. Up to independ- ence the country was called New Spain and was divided into the same number of provinces as Spain, each with q name of province in Spain, with the prefix of "New," but New Mexico was not included in this division. It got its name in this way:
 In 1561 Francisco Ibarra was in charge of an expedition of exploration into what is now northern Durango and southern Chihuahua and discov cred an Indian village near where San ia Barbara now stands in which the houses were whitewashed and the peo- pie made and wore cotton cloth, rais- ing the cotton in the neighborhood. He wrote an account of his discovery to his brother in the City of Mexico telling him he had discovered tuna nueva Mexico" a new Mexico, another Mexico. meaning that he had found another town like the City of Mexico, and thereafter all this portion of north -.n New Spain was known as 'Nueva Mexico'-that is, New Mexico-whicb name it has retained, though now much reduced in extent.-Las Vegas Optic.

Balzac by the Yard.

A well-known author not long ago stepped into book store, but for some little time could not attract the atten. tion of a clerk. all interest being cen tered in a stout gentleman who was jotting down figures on a pad. The author stroIled over in that direction and heard the head clerk remark:
 And now, sir, you have almost com pleted the library of which you will be proud but, of course, you will want Balzac?'
 Wall, I don't know, now. You see, we've only got two feet and seven inches space left" the old gentleman replied. GO ahead and measure him, though, and if he isn't too wide I'll take him, too," he added.-Success Magazine.

 Her mother told her she must never utter such a naughty word again; and to be sure to impress it on her mind. washed her mouth out with soap and water.

 You is just the same kind of kit ten you was yesterday"

The Experienced Swine.

The crowd around the postofiice stove, after exhausting the possibili- lies of politics, local and national, had been discussing the alleged lack of the truth-telling instinct in Old Man Simp- kins. Uncle Ezra came in, and Jim Peters said:
 "What do you think about it, Uncle Ezra-would you call Old Man Simp- kins a liar?"
 "Weli," answered Uncle Ezra slowly as he thoughtfully studied the ceiling, "I wouldn't go so fur as to call the old man a liar, but do know 1t to be fact that when feedin' time comes to get any response he has to have somebody else call his hogs fur him." -Woman's Home Companion.

The siIk Hat Coal scuttIe.


 Harry Lauder, at dinner in Wash ington, said of his kilt:
 Speaker Cannon tells me that the kilt would never be popular on the wind-swept prairies of Illinois. Why not? The bare knee hardens to the cold like the bare face. But to hear some people talk, you'd think the kilt as intolerable as Sanders McDowell's top hat. Sanders McDoweil, a coal heaver of Peebles, said angrily to his wife one night:
 "'Havers, Lispeth, hoo nanny times am to tell ye I wilma hae the chil- dern bringin' up coal in my top hatT
 "'Hoot, Sanders, mon, be reasona- ble,' said Lispeth. We've spoilt the shape O the top hat wi yer funny head already; an since ye're heaviD' coal all day, wot can a little extra coal dust in the head-piece matter?

Old New England graveyards are not the only ones which contain curious epitaphs. The old-time dweller of Maine who "died of a falling tree" as his headstone asserts, had a fellow in misfortune in far off Austria, as is shown by W. A. Baillie-Grohman'a ''The Tyrol and the Tyrolese."

GAS NEARLY CAUSES DEATH
Comes Very Close to Taking Life of
AxteIl Carlson, LabOrer, Mt
Lang Hotel.

Axtell Carlson. a iaborer, was found un-
conscious from gas ~asphyxiation in his bed
at the Lang hotel on South Thirteenth
street Saturday morning. He revived un-
der restorative treatment by DR.. II. B.
Harris. police surgeon, and will recover.
Carlson was near to death and the physl-
clan had a long struggle to bring him out.
Carlson's home is at Valley, Neb.
Investigation showed that Carlson had
not completely turned off the gas when he
went to bed. The smell Of escaping gas
led to his discovery. Carlson's life was
saved by the fact that the transom and
window I'm his room were partly open.
