HOW ARTESA SECURED
A READING ROOM
CONTRIBUTED


In the Southern part of New
Mexico a few progressive Wo-
men saw the need of a library or
reading room. With this need
il view they served an ice cream
supper to the town settlement.
$40 we're the proceeds and with
this they ordered books and "a
few periodicals. They then
organized the library association
and elected officers. with Is
members.
Buildings yer so few that il
was arranged to have the reading
room in the postoffice, the post
mistress agreed to act as libra
rian. This reading room stands
out as a monument today to those
brave hearted perseveriDg wo-
men who bent every effort to-
wards starting il. The women
gave a box supper followed by a
dance and sent for more books.
On one occasion they gave a
Minstrel Show all of them black
ing their faces and Literally giving
il them selves. This Minstrel
was given in the one room frame
school house that had been built
practically by their husbands.
The house was packed they TAX
ing in One Hundred and Ten
Dollars. More books lined.
shelves we're added and the real
estate men began displaying II
library to every prospector who
got off the train.
New members were being
taken into the association as
rapidly as new people moved to
the town and community. In a
few years the pioneer settlement
had grown to be a thriving town
and the library had out grown
its post Office quarters so a special
room was rented and a paid
librarian engaged. Suppers, din
ners and entertainments of every
kind continued TO be the means
Of maintaining the library. y
regular income was had from
business and profes sional men of
the town who had been asked TO
subscribe a certain amount each
month to be collected by the
librarian for the support OF the
library. Under the management
of the board the library has
fiourished more than any other
organization in the town. Mem
bership fees are one dollar per
year, which entities holder 10

room. The board consists OF

ARMY
MAKES A HIT

LONDON, Nov. THE Salvation
Army has made a hit with Tommy
Atkins. Three thousand Of him may
be seen any day. at the recreation
tent which the Salvation. Army main.
tains at Colchester, ,devouring some
twenty-five dozen pork pies, having a
look at the magazines and newspap-
ers, writing letters home, and occas-
ionally participating In some relig-
ious service But the demands for
food have been SO great that the army
has as yet had little time for song
and prayer.
many where the Salvationists main
tain these popular recreation tents
for the volunteers. An appreciation
Of the work is instanced at Cambridge
where Adjutant and Mrs. windiate OF
the Salvation Army served the sol
diers SO faithfully that the colonel In
command presented his dress sword
to Adjutant Windiate. He, and his
wife particularly distinguished them
selves in caring for some 80 wound
ed soldiers.
Commissioner Higgins, formerly In
New York with Commander Eve
Booth. directed the work OF these
recreation centers. In addition to
service at home, there are 500 selected
Salvation Army officers who have
offered themselves for work with the
British Red Cross and stand ready to
enter the field whenever needed.
Although the charges made for
fod and drink are very slight, General
Booth estimates he can maintain a
refreshment and amusement tent for
a year ON seven hundred and nifty
dollars. The Salvationists charge
only two cents cup for tea and the
same for bread and butter or pork
pie. Cool weather Is making the
tents unsatisfactory and nioveable

AMERICAN
Negroes Hide from Germans
for Fear They Might Be.

Correspondence Of the Associated

Correspondence Of the Associated

LONDON, Nov while a dra-
matte story Of the escape Of Dunbar
II, winner of this years Derby. from
German hands has already been cir
ctiiateds by the press, its circum-
stances do not at all agree with those
xouched for by Edward johnson, the
Head trainer of II. P. Duryea's stable
at Chantilly. near Paris. Because OF
Dunbar being spared because he
wore.an, American flag with, the words
.'Shoot Me Not''t across his breast.
the trainer, who is now in London,
says the Germans never saw Durbar,
nor did they see his companion,
Shannon, and the two American col
ored men in charge. The reason OF
their. escape, he explains, was that
during the German raid the two
horses were hidden In a shed of q
peasant's farm, while. the two negroes
lay. In a protecting haystack.
For ten days and ten nights the
negroes lay In fear of the Germans,
Bysa mistake in the road, they had
led the animals into territory occu-
pied by the invaders. There they OBJ.

who told the hostlers that IL cap.
tured by the Germans they would be
mistaken for the hated Turcos OF Al
geria, who had been distinguishing
themselves with the bayonet work.
Hence the pair would be tried by a
drum-head court martial and shot
dead. The peasant promised to look
after the horses and bring food to
the hiders. During the ten days
Uh1ans rode by frequently but they
did not discover the racers or their
guardians.
When news first came to Paris
that the Germans were sweeping
south, Mr.. Duryea, as an American
citizen, obtained permission from
the French government to send his
stock to his stud farm in Normandy.
But Durbar and Shannon were un-
equal to the trip, as their legs had
been fred and were badly swollen.
They were left with the two negroes
to follow up at leisure. Not knowing
the roads, the negroes went north
instead OF west. It was their unex-
planned absence that led Duryea Ia
think the Germans had made cap.
ture.
Durbar will never race again. His
legs have given away, although i'm
proved by the fire treatment. But
his value has not decreased on this
account, as he may be the sire OF fu-
ture Derby winners.

FRENCH
Trade Thrown into The Market
by the War Aggregates
/ Two Billion, Dollars.
lcorrespondenes Of the Associatea

Correspondence of the Associated
Press.
PARIS, Nov. .4EFrench trade ag-
gregatfng 1900, 900 francs or
$360.000, 000sa year is thrown into
the market as result Of the war.
Such was the total value Of goods
purchased by France last year from
Germany and Austria, the balance Of
trade being in favor Of Germany to
the amount of 205,000,000 francs
and in favor Of Austria to the
amount Of 5000, 900 francs.
Local committees are being organ
lied with view to placing this
business to the best advantage. The
committee of Industrial and COM
mercial defense is taking up the in
terests of small manufacturers, who
have not been in touch with the for
eign consumer in a way to enable
them to make new connections di-
rectly. Proposals are being made to
English business organizations with
a yiewito an exchange OF visits in the
two countries Of Representatives OF
commercial and industrial concerns.
The Importance Of this work to the
United States may be understood
from the fact that of the purchase
from Germany last year there were
100000 francs in machinery.
while France purchased from the
United. States only 57,000,00OO
francs in cereals while tho United
States supplied IS 100000.
Another committee is being formed
to consider the question Of hotels
which are, to a great extent, in the
hands OF Germans, while those con-
Quoted by Frenchmen had mostly
German and other foreign employees.
One proposition is to establish a
number of hotel schools, such as the
one already in operation in Thonon,
where every branch OF the hotel busi-
ness is taught practically French
hotel keepers in Paris have organized
schools Of languages for their en-
ployes in order to fit them to take
the place OF Germans, as the ques-
ton Of language has always been a
weak point with French employees.
Everywhere is seen evidence of
the intention to follow strictly the
!njunctions Of the Official decree In
the boycotting Of German and Au-
trian products. In the stationery
stores Austrian pencils have disap-
peared from view and 1t Is impossi-
BILE to find any Of the usual German
articles in the delicatessens shops.
Monsieur Lelievre, president OF
the Industrial Defense Committee,
states that, the principle difficulty
the committee encounters is in, the
case Of houses which are practically
known to; be thoroughly German but
continue business under = names
adopted for the contingency. There
are no statistics giving the number
Of Germans occupied IN commerce
and manufacturing in France, but
the proportion Is very important and
the defense committee proposes to
ask for. radical measures OF protec-
ton against their continuation sun-
der false colors.

been telling the American RELIEF COM

lief workers operating in, Holland.
Most of these pretenders are steam
ship and hotel agents working on

their sleeves. Some Of them warned
passengers that rooms were aunob-

by one Of the refugees.
