turkeys used in the absence of present-day facili

the roads, couple of noble sportsmen laid
ger to the speed Of turkeys and geese over
course which it would take a matter of days to
traverse. Each nobleman was provided with
little flock Of four Of the fowls of his fancy, and
of course betting high in favor Of the tur-
keys And at first they seemed to justify their
hackers, for they stalked away from their
waddling rivals and left them far behind So
things went on all day, but dusk came on the
arlstocratic turkey herd found his charges becom-
ing passive resisters, and displaying an incurable
desire to go to roost-no amount Of coaxing would
propel them farther Meanwhile the despised
geese, with whom night and day were not of any
very great Importance waddled sedately past, and
ultimately won the race with plenty to spare. 1t

in fact One OF the most valued possession of the
Calcutta animal dealer have mentioned was a
fawn-c olored European-bred turkey, whose color
much commended 1t in his eyes, since turkeys Of
this hue seem not to be found in India This
privileged fowl used to circulate about his
ter's chair strutting and gobbling; and though he
often resented the entrance Of natives into the
compound he respected Europeans, piece of dis
elimination one does not expect in being OF such
limited intelligence as turkey. Another inmate
of the menagerie was a young cassowary, and he
wrought the turkeys downfall; for, coming into
the compound one day, missed the ginger-hued
gobbler, and asked what had become of him.
"Ah, my poor turkey!"' said the dealer; he
gave cheek to the cassowary, and the cassowary
kicked him and burst his bag!" 1t sounded as If
the impudent bird had been collapsed like toy
balloon but did not inquire into details.
The dealer, however, consoed himself with a
pair OF local turkeys or the ordinary dark color,
and the gobbler was beginning to take the place

PUTS STOMACHS IN ORDER.
No Indigestion, Gas, Sourness or Dys-
pepsia Five Minutes After Taking
Little Diapepsin.

There should not be case Of indiges-
ton, dyspepsia or gastritis here If read
ers who are subject to Stomach trou-
BILE knew the tremendous antiferment
and digestive virtue contained in Dia-
pepsin. This harmless preparation
will digest a heavy meal without
the slightest fuss or discomfort, and
relieve the sourest, acid stomach in
five minutes, besides overcoming all
foul, nauseous odors from the breath.
If your stomach is sour and full Of
gas, or your food doesn't digest, and
your meal don't seem to fit, why not
get 50-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin
from any druggist here in town, and
make life worth living. Absolute re-
lief from Stomach misery and perfect
digestion of anything you eat is sure
to follow five minutes after, and be-
sides, one flfty-cent case is sufficient
to cure a whole family of such trouble.
Surely, a harmless, inexpensive
preparation like Pape's Diapepsin,
which will always either at daytime
or during night, relieve your sick,
sour, gassy, upset stomach and digest
your meals, is about as handy and val
liable thing as you could have in the
house.

But It is not only in the display of his charms
that the turkey proclaims his advantage over the
world of our feathered dependents; his stentorian
gobbling arrests the attention Of all.
The said gobbling, by the way, has given rise
to the only bit Of folklore about the turkey that
I know OF. Being an American, he Is too modern
to have legends associated with him as rule;
turkeys voice blasphemous mockery Of their
brief creed as spoken in Arabic. Hence, when a
turkey has to be killed in India the native takes
a cruel pleasure in executing 1t by cutting out
its impious tongue; and 80 widely spread is the
belief, that little native boy, retainer Of an
animal dealer in Calcutta, replied to me, when

CONSTITUTIONAL MAJORITY
WILL BE MANY THOUSANDS,
Hon. Amado Chaves Points Out to
His Fellow Citizens Why They
Must Vote for Il,

Former Superintendent Of Public
Instruction Amado Chaves writes
from albuquerque to Judge A. L. Nor
rison of this city: Concerning the
constitution l have to say that while
it is not all that we might wish to
get, it contains SO much that is good
that we should by all means vote and
work for it. Our people must support
the constitution for many reasons
and one of them is this: The present
constitution protects the Spanish
American citizens in all their rights
as citizens and protects our children
in their school privileges. In few
years from now, the Texas element
in New Mexico, may control the state
and then that element would adopt
a constitution of it's own making and
not question will be asked whether
we like it or not and then our poor
people will not only be ignored but
abused To overcome this danger, if
for no other reason, our people must
vote for this constitution. You may
be sure that the constitution will be
adopted by thousands of votes ma.
jority."

MAN SHOOTS
HIMSELF FATALLY.
Follows in Footsteps of Father Who
Had Killed HimseIf-Death at
Silver City,

Silver City, n. NJ, Dec. 22.-Harry
Glenn, a son of Deputy Sheriff Thorn
as Glenn, who committed suicide at
Deming, on Friday, October Z, 1910
attempted to follow in the footsteps
of his father, by shooting himself in
the head, at Mogollon, Sunday night
Although the bullet tore quite a hole
in the head, entering just between the
eyes and he was hurried in here yes
terday by automobile, a distance of
80 miles, Glenn is still alive this af-
ternoon, and appears perfectly ration
al. He is striving to recover, stating
that he now desires to live, but the
physicians state he cannot survive
many days. He is an Industrious,
hard-working man and held a respon-
siDle position at Mogollon. Grief over
the loss of his father, ana perhaps a
desire to do as he had done, led the
young man to attempt self-destruc-
tion. He is eighteen years of age and
has younger brother here, and
and there are also other small chill
dren of Deputy Sheriff Glenn's resid-
ing in California. His mother re-
sides at Deming.
Ignatius J. Troffer, highly educat
ed and wealthy German, died sudden

He leaves a considerable estate.
Charles L. Ashton, a pioneer resi-
dent here, and who has been i'll for
several days in a local hospital, died
last night. He was Union soldier,
and had right recently disposed of
his interests in the famous Wild Cat
mine, in the Santa Rita district, and
had he not taken i'll, he would have
gone in the near future to the SOL
dier's home, at Sawtelle, California,
there to spend the remaining days of
his life. He was widely known
throughout the southwest and was a
splendid citizen.
