FOOLISH WASTE.

The communication OF Lieut.. Ool,
s. A. Millken. surgeon-general OF
the New Mexico national guard, APP
pearlng elsewhere on this page, Is one
that should be read carefully by re-
cruiting officials all over the state
It's recommendation are 30 unmis-
lakably sound as 10 leave no room
for argument or bubble.
II should be apparent to any one
who gives the subject even the most
casual consideration that II IL a fool
ish waste OF time and money to take
10 the border at the public expense
men who are certain 10 be rejected
for military service upon undergoing
the physical examination required
and who will not be enlisted by the
United States authorities. And yet
this has been done In large number
Of Instances.
As Colonel Milliken points out, not
only are time and money lost by this
procedure, but those who are engaged
in the work OF bringing the national
guard up TO It's required standard are
discouraged IN their efforts and dis
credit Ia brought, on the state and IT'D
military organization by the large
number of reflections Already, New
Mexico has received much OF the
wrong sort OF advertising by reason
Of stories published In eastern news
papers relating the condition of In
efficiency IN which the national Euarn
Of the state found itself upon the coil
TO the border, ana It Is incumbent
upon those IN authority TO sec that no
more Of this 'ort OF publicity gains
currency with any sort OF justification
IN fact
The health-seeker has no place IN
the national guard. The weakllns
and the immature boy should be kept
az home TO develop and grow Guard
ing the border Is not summers out
ing--it Ia strong mans work, and
only strong men should be sent to

danger from loss of life is apparent.
The fire is believed to have been
set by two Mexicans. However, no
absolute proof as to its origin has
been obtained. The fire was set in
several different places and spread
rapidly before enough men reached
the scene to do any effective work.
No arrests have yet been made, but
the men who are under surveillance
will probably ,be apprehended within
a short time.
The loss in timber will be many
thousands of dollars and the loss in
pasture lands will be quite detrimen-
tai to the stockmen who have the
burned area leased

THE CHANGE IN THE BowEny.

NtNtN iolh SUM-
What of the Bowcry? A visitor
there today would be amazed nj the
wonderful transformation wrought In
that famous but maligned thorough
faro by the shifting of The elevated
structure from the sidewalk to the
gutter at points where the avenue is
wide enough To permit this to he done.
The new order Of things is respon-
sible for the feeling of security that
the pedestrian experiences as he
walks along the thoroughfare. No
longer Is the mass OF wood and steel
held above ones head by the frail pill
lars that were erected IN the days
when eight-ear trains. damned to the
doors and equipped with heavy motor
cars were unknown
Tho transition from the Anticipated
10 the modern has been the means OF
bringing something to the Bowery
that the good old thoroughfare has
not enjoyed since the elevated reared
its aftenuated form in 1879. | refer
TO the sunlight that now streams down
on the places which formerly Nede
foul and damp because the elevated
structure succeeded in shutting off en-
tirelS the rays of the sun. The num-
erous business places. the cheap ho-
tells. the clothing shops, etc. have all
been frightened up measurahiy by
the sunshine that now gets the chance

Moreover removing the pillars
from the sidewalk has added at least
foot more space on each side for the
use of hundreds of thousands OF pc
destrians who daily travel over the
thoroushfare that serves as an artery
for the East side.

AMUSEMENT AND RELIGION.

The world, or at least very con-
siderable portion of the world, has
pretty wen gotten away from tho old
Puritan idea that amusement and re-
lgion are necessarily Incompatible
The theory once held that The incar.
nation of tho devil resided within the
body II the fiddle. Tho woman who
danced and especially the womua
who engaged IN what wero known as
'rouad dances, was an outcast from

stakes or MOI. was oatalogued among
The pastimos that are wholly vicious

offenses.

come to recognize music as one o.

Il is curious. therefore. TO see so

The argument AGAINST removing the
prohibition ON these pastimes was
that such action would be tantamouni
10 on endorsement Of them by the
church. The logic Of this is hard TO
gee. The mere failure TO impose the
OF expulsion for a certain act
can hardly be construed Az either a

TRUE SERVICE
By Ralph Waldo Emerson

I OWES hearts are faithful, but not fond
l. Bound. for the just, but not beyond;
Not glad as the low-loying herd,
OF self in other still preferred
But they have heartily designed
The benefit of broad mankind.
And they serve men austerely,
After their own genius clearly,
Without false humility;
For this is loves nobility
Not to scatter bread and gold,
Goods and raiment bought and sold;
But to hold fast his simple sense,
And speak the speech OF innocence,
And with lond and body and blood,
TO make his bosom-counsel good
He that feeds men serveth few;
He serves all who dares be true.
