MAYO MIRAGE.

| mAIO mlhAtE.
BY REFLECTOR. Mayo, Sept. Ia, 1905
Received too late for last week.
| The long and the short of it is -.-
John Browns telephone ring.
Mrs. A. Barnes and little son made q
visit to the Cooper's last week.
Arthur Shoemaker spent Saturday and
Sunday visiting at the Cooper home.
Mrs. Chas. Endicott, who knows the
way to boys hearts, is extra busy cook
ing.
| Floyd Bond spent his two days yaca-
ton at Mayo with his parents and
brother.
James Reynolds returned home from
his Fairburn location Saturday evening
for few days stay.
Our beloved friend Earl Sutherland is
more awake than any CT us left behind
is the thought which comes.
Mr.. John Brown and son Clifford
have completed harvesting the grain on
their farm land east of Custer.
Mrs. Fl. E. Titus and little daughter
have joined Grandma Strickland in the
boarding house.
Mrs. John Endicott is spending a few
days with her mother, Mrs. Francis
Ayres, while Mr.. Ayres is away on a
trip.
Tit-tat-toe Three in a row!
Mr.. John Endicott and two sons are
working merrily together in the grain
field.
W. r. Bond and son Spencer are busy
haying and harvesting Aunt Ida is
no less busy in the kitchen cooking good
things for her big hungry boys.
The Evergreen and Mayo school
houses are getting very becomingly ar
rayed with pink coats and white trim
mings. Chas. Green is an artist in this
line.
T. B. Stanton, after weeks illness is
gaining strength. Away from the buzz
of the saw, and the turning of wheels,
he is, doubtless, like a bee away from
its hum. T. B. is man of much me-
chanical ability.
"Men are only boys grown tall" So
l must hie me away to the kitchen to
prepare supper for three young Ameri-
cans. Why is this eating joke always
told on the boys?
Little Glen has reaclipd mile stone,
He is one year old today,
Chatting, oh! so cunningly,
But baby, blithe and gay.
Little boy! lift and wonder
Gazing in you" eyes so blue
Will you e'er contide In mother,
All your Joys and heartaches too?
Win your smile so full of sunshine,
To the sad and lone give Joy?
VIII you spend your life In helping?
Heaven bless you, Baby Boy!
James Kinsey is in our neighborhood
binding grain for James Reynolds. Mr..
r. X. Strickland is following the reaper.
Knsey is reaping,
But not his own sowin-
Never mind, Jim'S all right!
So let him Keep gOin'.
Grandpa is shocking
He's shocking ITS True;
But he's just shocking grain!
so what hurt does 1t do?
Grandpa admits "Pm not so young as
1 used to be-" However, in his behalf,
here's one not afraid to bet "big tater,"
were l of the bettin' kind-that he
can keep up with and ahead of scads of
younger boys yet, when it comes to
shocking grain. Nothing against young
er boys, but "know how" and "do how"
are worthy colleagues in all good under
takings.

is Interested in railroad Legislation
ana regulation. He has introduced
in the house a bill providing for the
creation of a corporation commission
! which under the terms of the bill is
to have direct supervision over all
railroad, telegraph, telephone and ex-
press lines operating in New Mexico.
The commission is to consist Of three
members, one of whom shall be famil-
lar With the operations of railroads,
one with business affairs and the
third to be a lawyer. The commits
sioners are TO receive fifteen hundred
dollars a year each as salary and
five hundred dollars additional as
salary. while the clerk of the commits
sion is to receive twelve hundred dol
lars and travelling expenses. The com
mission is required to have its head
quarters in Santa Fe, but may hold
hearings when and where il desires
within the territory. 1t is to act as
a sort of advisory commission to the
Interstate Commerce Commission. the
Trainer OF the bill reasoning that since.
New Mexico may not take such &
lation out of the hands of the com
merce commission being "A territory,
it should have a commission to pre-
pare cases for presentation to the
