The Deming Graphic is published
twice a week, In its first publication
last week 1t had an account Of a din
ner given to the old settlers. Notice
the word Gold" The guests must
have been old In years, as we'll as old
settlers, for no one was invited who
had not lived In Deming thirty years.
One VI the honored guests was B. Y.
MeKeys, and his specialized eyes and
grey hair testified to his right to be
in the honored company. In the sec
ond edition of the Graphic last week
was an account Of a meeting of some
of the prominent citizens Of the flower
OF the Mimbres Valley, sometimes
known as Deming, to select a ticket
to be voted on at the coming village
election. The Graphic described the
meeting as being composed Of the
younger element, which wanted the
town managed by modern methods,
they being tired Of the old fashioned
way and Anticipated methods Of the
present administration. At this meet
ing one Of the men nominated for
alderman was B. Y. McKeys. His
His jet black hair and flashing eyes
testified to his youth, and he stood on
the table in the middle of the room,
and turned a double fip-fap as an
indication Of his virility. John Cor
bett, Col. McGrorty, Postmaster Pen
nington and other octogenarians have
been beseeching Mac to find out what
he has taken to rejuvinate him, and
B. Y. says he has found the fountain
Of youth; that It Is the Deming water
as 1t flows from the well, in the park
by the depot Several times these
men, singly and in groups, have start
ed down to try it, and every time they
got that close to the Harvey house
bar they could not stop, but went on,
that they might get a good drink.

The Grecian army had captured Sal

no guard, and only one companion
when he was shot from behind, and

The picnic which vas advertised
for last Saturday at j. w. Johnson's,
on the Animas, was not a success, as
a picnic. 1t was discovered that 1t
was not the time a year for picnic
weather. 1t rained and showed and
blew, and there was all kinds Of
d~isagreeable weather, and the picnic
was automatically adjourned until
there was better weather. The old
time weather shark Of the Animas
told Mr.. Johnson that 1t was the
time of the new moon, and every new
moon since last fall had been &C
companied by cold and stormy
weather, and this probably be con-
tinued until there came weather when
1t could not be cold, when the new
moon period would take another slant
on weather. The same sharp told him
there had been fine weather this
winter on the last quarter Of the
moon, and II he would postpone his
picnic till then he would have nice
weather. The last quarter will COM
mence on the 10Th, and the picnic is
postponed till that date, which is
Saturday Of next week. II the moon
man provides good weather on that
date he will own the valley as a
weather prophet. If there is bad
weather on Saturday week the in
habitants will run him out Of the
valley.

could not call at the homes Of more
than six Of the families he knew in
the city, or any given evening, with
any reasonable expectation Of find

OF today goes out to dine, goes out
to play, and goes out for social in

blends with spirit. A common faith
