The Gibraltar of the East

From the London Globe.
 Alden. at the entrance to the Red sea, is q city with a remarkable history and is known as the Gibraltar of the East ' The Boognese traveller, Ludovico al Var thema, many centuries ago declared 1t 10 be the strongest city that was ever seen on level ground" while Albuquerque. the great Portuguese pioneer in Asia, stated that 1t was one of the four places that were essential to those holding do- minion in the Orient, the other three being Ofmuz, Dlu and Goa. But the Portuguese held Alden only from 1547 to l551. According to vague tradition. the place was once occupied by the Romans. One of the earlier voyages of the East India company was to Alden in 1909. Tn 1902 a treaty was made between Brtian and the sultan of Alden. In 1S39 his suc- cessor was forced to sell his territory to the British as a punishment for an attack on some shipwrecked British sail ors and Il years later Alden was on the crater of an extinct volcano.

The New Mexican does not wish
TO be unpleasantly or unduly critical.
but a dead rooster at the corner OF
Palace and Lincoln n has lain
there unburied for three consecutive
days.
There Is no doubt about that roost-
er's death. No physicians certificate
Is required, as the passerby may tes-
tify. He has passed away. now
while one rooster occupies compare
lively little space, and while a casual
visitor to the city might not notice
him, the principle of the thing Is
wrong. One tourist might see that
rooster and fail to see the old palace;
and his report on Santa Fe would fea'
ture the fact that 1t had no facilities
FOR interring or removing defunct
roosters.
Let no visitor to the Oldest-Newest
city IN the United States see unburied
roosters on our street corners. II Is
the little things that go to make the
big Impressions. Every rooster re-
moved and buried makes Santa Fe one
rooster the cleaner, one rooster the
brighter and more attractive.
Let us let no dead rooster escape
or any other debris, animal, vegeta-

beautiful capital city Of New Mexico.
