Q MT. Teeple has later ccm- munication from MT. Hanna, stating that he would endeaver to wire him in advance the exact day he would be here.
 The Commercial Club has been quietly working on this reduction of rates for a number of months. It is a matter that should inter- est the citizens of Holbrook as we'll as the cattle growers gener- ally. On account of what would appear to be a discrimination in feyor of Magdalena, this town loses the shipping of the South ern Apache County cattle and the resoulting lose of general busir ess.
 It also means that the buyer would pay at least Soc per head more for every head of cattle shipped to Eastern markets as he would save this amount on freight. It should be the business of every one interested to see MT. Hanna upon his next visit and talk this matter over with him.

It Was a Pleasant Day at EastIake

There was fairly large gathering "f people at Eastlake park yesterday to attend the annual Sunday school picnic of the Christian church.
 The day was propitious for the oc- casIon. the winds coming in cooling breezes from the mountains on the north and tempering the grounds. so admirably adapted for the occasion.
 Al the noon hour long tables were spread under the cooling branches of Osage orange and other trees and din- ner partaken of by a host of peo- pie There were a number of strang- CTS on the grounds who had come to enjoy the day and they were gathered m and made to eat. This was done by members of the church and Sunda school going among the crowd and looking for them. One lady ran up against the reporter of The Repui H- can aud took him over to the long table. She presided over where he ate long and well, wondering in his mind who the benevolent lady could be and cherishing in his heart a de- sire to know who his benefactress was. and did. later on. It was Mrs Pet.igp.
 
 the attention of the people at the tables ard made a suggestion to hold large and friendly meeting at vaca- tion time. and before everybody had departed for the summer. The propO- sition was received very favorably. anC at the gathering. if it is held. Mir Phillips also desired the presence of all the churches in the city. The question will receive more attention in detail. looking to the idea of car rying out the suggestion.
 After dinner there were girls and boys races, as well as contests for those grown up Prizes were awarded for the fastest runner. and in the lemon race. which was for girls un- der fifteen years of age. the first prize vas won by Margaret Stewart and the second by Ruth Bandy.
 In the womans race Mrs. Dunlap fell down soon after starting, but the other seven went through and all came under the rope in good time.
 The day was marred by a slight accident that fell to Helen Welcome while getting out of one of the swings while in motion.

 The aligators in their pen at the edge of the water of the lake proved to be a winning feature of the day to the many who were present and who had never seen a gator.
 Lots of little boys put in their time fishing for the schools of min noWs that play on the surface of the lake Their fishing rods and hooks consisted of only a piece of twine with bait from a dinner basket tied to it.
