ment News.


(AIrs. w. S. Sanborn, Correspondent
The third annual banquet and re-
union of the junior branch of the
Alumni Association was held at the
Town Hall on Thursday evening, and
was largely attended. The hall was
beautifully decorated with apple
blossoms and evergreens and school
and class banners, and at eight
O'Clock the company sat down to a
banquet. Prof. NJ w. Chaffee, acting
as toast master, introduced the fol-
lowing speakers: Rev. T. A. Carlson,
who in reporting the results of the
work of the Endowment Fund Com
mittee, said that of the $4,000 needed
to secure the $500 pledge, if secured
before August L, only 1895 remains
to be raised, and spoke with great
hope and enthusiasm of the prob
ability that this would be done. Will
liam Crown, 10, was the next speak
err, his subject being 'The Influence
of the Academy on the Outside
World" DR.. A. j. Mackay Of the
Board of trustees then made few
remarks, followed by Rev. X. 70.
Green, who spoke in a most interest
ing manner on 1.-THE Stamp of Edu-
cation" The reports of the treas
urer and secretary were then read by
Mrs. M. w. Chaffee, reporting 33 new
members, making total of $50, with
$672.74 in the treasury. The ON

and Miss Louise Bayley. Dascomb
Rowe, of the graduating class, was
the next speaker, followed by the last
speaker of the evening, Rev. Francis
Laird of West Barnet, who spoke on
the timely and fitting subject, Pa
triotism." Gov. Gates, who was ex-
pected to be present was unfortun-
ately unable to attend, but despite
this disappointment, the evening was
enjoyed by all. An especially pleas
ant feature of the event was the mu-
sic by the st. Johnsbury Trio, which
added much to the pleasure OF the
occasion.

Grandmother's Garden.


Grandmother's garden of long ago
Was a fairy-land to me,
Where grew all the flowers like unto
those
Which bloom by the Beautiful Sea.
There was yarrow, and larkspur and
mignonette,
Tiger lilies and rue;
There were peonies, "chickies" and
hollyhocks
And pansies of every hue.
Down by the path to the gurgling
spring
Bordered with southern wood
rare;
Marigold posies, and asters too,
Grew with the 'sturtiums there.
And morning gIories, the trellis over,
Trained by the loving hands
OF dear old Grandmother, long ago;
Now in the heavenly lands.
Sweet was the violet's tender smile,
And the lilies the Savior knew;
Sweet the breath of the prairie rose,
Fed by the evening dew.
Candytuft that bordered the beds,
Four-o-clocks opened wide;
All these blossoms of days gone by,
Grew there side by side.
But Grandmother's garden of long
ago
Is tended and watched no more;
For she went away from its bios
somed paths
To the Everlasting Shore.
/
And now as the fieeting years roll on,
And we see the old time place;
Let us gather the sweet old-fash-
toned flowers,
And lay Ger her sleeping face.

on all matters was always sough;
and always much to be desired; and
that there has gone from US forever
a friend who made himself especially
dear to every one with whom he
came. in contact, and whose mode
life and untiring energy placed him
in the. front rank of our foremost
citiZenry. s..

THE HOME MERCHANT.

Every merchant has; a better chance to do business with the people in his neighborhood than has the far away mail order house.
 It doesn't cost him as much to get trade as it costs the outsider.
 He can draw the people to his store and show them the actual article they are interested in; and this beats catalogs to g. frazzle
 When his customers buy they can take the goods with them or have them delivered at once, in- stead of waiting from one week to two weeks longer.
 The home merchant is on the inside track. But the trouble too often is that instead of pushing his business through advertising, like the far way mail order house does, he sits idly by and cusses his luck and unfair com petition.
 Don't hide your light behind a bushel. The public likes an aggressive business man.. And they like to do business with that kind.
 Be on the offensive, not de- fensive.-Exchange.

Morris Denn was here from Bisbee this week.
 Charley Weinberger is here from Douglas looking over the mining situation.
 The Gringo mine has been taken over by W. c. Tompkins under lease and bond and op- erations are under way.
 A gasoline engine was receiv- ed for the F'lux mine this week and was freighted out by c. B. Wilson's six horse outfit.
 P. J. McCarty of Camille was here this week on a business trip. Mir. McCarty is getting ready to start operations on his copper property near Arivaca.
 Good progress is being made at the Trench mine and Manager John Hoy has the new shaft down 25O feet. Strong veins but the 500 level will be reached before drifting to the old Trench vein, from which early day min CTS took out fortunes.
 Charles H. Hoffman has 6 force of men at work on the Chief mine. The shaft is being unwatered and will be followed by retimbering. This property consists of twelve claims and is said to have shown exceptional ly good indications in the work ings now being reopened.
 MT. Wadworth, mining en- gineer, who has been making an examination of the IVanhoe mine for the past two weeks, left on Monday morning for Douglas. It is understood that the future of this property depends on his report, which if favorable, will mean the continuing of work with a large force of men.
 Huntington and O'Neill, who are now sinking a shaft on the Mark Smith claim, just north of the Alto postoffice, have opened 8 fine body of high grade copper ore, which may turn out to be a bonanza. This ore near the sur face is somewhat altered, but it shows the high grade of copper ore, and while it is not certainly proved to be a secondary enrichment, there is a proba bility that it is, and some more work will be to prove this beyond a doubt While doing this work they will take out ore for ship ment, and have already made a beginning. This will add another to the shippers of Patagonia.

cATTLeMAN's cANAANq


 many cattlemeu are making pre- paratiOnS to move over into Mexico as soon as political con- ditions in the southern republic are such as to afford a reason able degree of safety to herds and attendants. Mexico, it is said, is looked upon as the pro missed land of the cattleman, and they are planning to go over and possess it just as soon as that can be done without caus- ing international complications.
 As the result of the years of internecine strife the Mexican ranges, which formerly pastured millions of head of cattle, are practically depopulated. An abundance of grass and a. clim ate that makes grazing all the year round possible are ideal conditions for cattle growing. From the standpoint of the cat tleman the sight as he gazes across the Rio Grande is as ir- spring as was the view that met the gaze of Moses of old as he stood on the mountain top and looked beyond the Jordan to the Promised Land.
 With every prospect of the early establishment of a stable government in Mexico, prepara- tions for the invasion of the great grazing areas of the north ern states of the republic are under way in the cattle growing districts of the Southwest. For months past the cattlemen of that section have Steadfastly re- fused to part with their she stuff. To price a bunch of cows or heifers has been equivalent to sale in that section. Bulls are being imported from the northern states by the carload. indicates that there is a firm conviction in the south west that there is going to be an demand for breeding stock in the not distant future.
 It will require years to restock the depopulated pastures of the republic. The restock- ing will be done with a material ly better grade of cattle than the natives that were run out of the country to prevent their be- ing confiScated or slaughtered to feed the contending armies. The pastures of Mexico are tick-in- feSted and preference will be given in the restocking to i'm mune cattle from below the line. But the supply of these will be entirely made 4uate to restock the country. The corn belt states will be drawn upon for breeding stock | of both sexes. Science has, to some extent, lessened the danger | from the tick fever. That the | will take the lead in the work of restocking the Mex can pastures there can be no 1oubt. The Herefords have time | and again demonstrated their | ability to withstand the lardships of new countries, and | he conditions in Mexico now | will be similar to what they | were on the southwestern ranges half a century ago.
 That the pacitication of Mex co is of vast importance to the breeders of this country there ,an be no question. It will mean , market for breeding stock that will be practically unlimited for many years-a market that will ,e capable of absorbing the en- ire surplus of the corn belt nerds. - American Hereford | Journal.

How the Locomotive Engineer Looks

You don't realize what a nervous strain you are putting on man in the cab" said a Southern Pacific locomotive en- gineer the other day to an Ash land automobile driver, when you dashed up toward a cross ing just ahead of his train. There he is in his cab and he knows that he can't stop his engine. There you are in your auto speeding toward the crossing just ahead. You probably know that you are going to stop just at the edge of the track and look up and laugh at him. He does not know that you even see the train. He doesn't know but what you are going to try to dash across ahead of him. It's joke maybe to you. To him it's few seconds of the most intense agony. Why do you do it? When you see train coming and,
