THE CHURCH

ENTERTAINMENT

Was One of Best Ever Given in

Tucumcari.

LARGE CR.OWD ATTENDEDThe Baptist Musical and Pecitalion En-

tertainment program was had at the churchlast night according to announcement. Thurendition showed splendid preparation andeverybody who attended were pleased withthe entire performance, and pronnncedit the very best ever produced in Tucum-car- i.

The guitar and mandolin selection by

Messrs. Herring. Anderson and M iss (iraceAnderson put the entire audience in a good

humor.

The Vocal Solo, "A Whispered Vov,"by Mrs. O. A. Mason, certainly wasa treatfor she has a remarkebly sweet and a high-

ly cultivated voice, and sang well. T h erecitation, "Thora," by Miss Lizzie Troupwas well rendered and she showed m u c h

talent in the rendition of that dilHcidt piece.

The Quartette, "Nearer My Clod ToThee," by Dr. Coulter, McCargar, Mrs.McCargar and Miss Anderson, truly was a

grand musical recitation, and so thorough-ly rende red that the audience was almost

spell-boun- d at the sweetness and harmony

A man camo down tho vhar atBonner's Point and beholding CaptainSilas Bugbee leaning over the rail ofthe schooner Amanda accosted him."Can I hire this boat to take me toRushton he asked. Thoskipper turned his hard blue eye onthe speaker, whose habiliments andmanner bespoke a city-bre- d man.

"You can't," he replied, "she's a jobfor

"That's bad," responded the pros-pective hirer; "I am anxious to be inRushton in time to take the steamboatfor Baltimore. I'd give ten dollarsfor the passage."

The skipper moved uneasily. Withthe present sou'-we- st wind a run overto Rushton wouldn't take more thanthree hours. Ten dollars was not tobe passed by and as a matter of factthis skipper expected to spend five dol-lar- y

that very night."When do you want to start?" ho

ashed.Til be ready at six o'clock and I

suppose you can get me in Rushtonbv nine. The steamboat leaves thereat ten."

fitill the skipper pondered. Ho pro-posed to bo married that night andwas then preparing to go across thebay for that very important accessoryti a wedding a clergyman. In fact,tin engagement had already beenmade with tho reverend gentleman.

hour in a hired wagon which the cap-tain know belonged in Bonner. "Iwonder who tho feller is?" he mur-mured; "I don't know of no strangershere."

The man assisted another man, curi-ously muffled for tho time of year, outof the wagon. A man very awkwardlyclothed and muffled as to tho neckin a comforter. A slouch hat waspulled far over his face. "Somethingqueer," muttered the skipper, "but it'sno business of mine."

"This is Captain Bugbee, the ownerof the boat," remarked the man whohad arrangd negotiations to his com-panion.

Tho muffled man emitted a soundvery like unto a smothered laugh andturned his face away from the skip-per- .

"My friend is sick," said the hirerof the boat. "Im anxious to get himto Baltimore. I'll help him up theplank."

Then a big portmanteau wasbrought over the rail and the sickman went down into tho cuddy.

The skipper cast off and was hold-ing tho schooner hard against thewind when ho was hailed from a skiffwhich had put out from tho oppeviitoside of tho bay.

"Isn't that Captain Bugbee?" hntloda man in tho little craft. To an af-

firmative answer ho went on."I'm the Rev. Mr. Glubb and you

were coming lor me this evening. I

put out to meet. you. captain."Now, the captain, as before hinted,

intended to marry Miss Arabella Pitkins that very night. Miss Pltkinshad been left tho most desirable sumof $5,000 by her father, in possessionof which sho was to como on attain-ing her twentieth year. This eventwould occur tho coming winter andwas viewed with apprehension by heruncle. Captain Abel Woods, in whosecare she had been committed by herfather. It was obvious that a girl a3attractive as was Arabella and withmoney to boot would not long remainunmarried and when sho did marrytho $300 allowed him annually for hermaintenance and schooling ceased.Then Captain Bugbee came on thescene and paid ardent court to Ara-bella. It is possible that Captain Bug-bee had had a regard for his parentsand also as to the future welfare ofhis soul, but tho on thing he lovedwas money. Had no been a poet, andhappily he was not, his Impassionedodes would have been dedicated todebars rather than to raven tressesor to liquid blue eyes. The very at-

tractive personality of tho girl was en-

tirely secondary to tho snug sum ofmoney she would inherit and CaptainBugbee determined at all odds to havetho money and as a necessity thogirl. But he did not find favor withArabella and the wily mariner enlist-e- d

the support of Captain Woods byplaying upon hi:, cupidity. Ho prom-ised, that in the event of Arabella,warrvhxs htm he would reside with

hir. wife r.t. tho Woods home and thn$:;0 would be increased to $500 A

year. As Arabella was gentle andobedient Captain Woods nnd his wifehad no doubt of succeeding in per-

suading her to consent lo marryingCaptalt: Bugbee. Ho had no appar-ent rivals, for country beaux were notcountenanced and she knew no oneoutside of the village. True, she hadspent two months in Baltimore thopast year with Mrs. Woods' sister, butshe seemed to have made no acquaint-ances. The negotiation dragged andCaptain Bugbee's hunger to possessthe money grew. Finally, Arabellawas commanded by her uncle to pre-pare to marry Captain Bugbee inthroe weeks, and. to his surprise, thogirl made no violent protest.

"You sop I wns all prepared for thowedding." said tho clergyman as hereached the deck of tho schooner,pointing to a book In his hand. "Itwon't be until night," re-

plied the skipper. "I was obliged torun up to Rushton

"As long as I'm aboard I'll go withyou," responded tho minister. "I've afew things to attend to in Rushton."

"Are you a clergyman?" enquiredthe man who had hired the Amandaand who had just come up out of thecuddy.

Mr. Glubb replied in the afflrmntlve."Then," said the man, "I'd like a

word or so with you."Tho two disappeared down tho cud-d-

ladder."I hope that sick man won't die on,

board," mused tho skipper; "he mustbo worse or what would si preacherhave to t'.o?"

The o&cupants of the cuddy remain-ed below until the schooner reached

"Marriage be !" howled the skipper.its destination and then, with a pre-occupied countenance, the Rev. Mr.Glubb accompanied the two puusen-ger- s

ashore, asking the skipper towait a half hour for him.

When ho camo back the marine in-

quired if he had burled the sick man."Rather mysterious, but license allregular," replied the clergyman, "thesick man happens to be a well unmanand I've just married her to the mauwho accompanied Iter."

"Did you find out her name," riskedCaptain Bugbee, turning pale.

"Why, how else could I havo mar-ried her? Her name's Arabellp Plt-kins and she told me there was a hor-rible old wretch trying to force 02r tomarry him. She had to disguise her-self as a man to escape. Tho mrr. shemarried sho met in Baltimore lastyour. He seems a very good sort offellow."

After an astonished pause tho cler-gyman said sharply. "Please renem-he- r

Deaf People in Social Gatherings TooOften Forgotten.

Sho was very (loaf, and so the con-

out or a hush of astonishment fell up-

on the company, she looked tip eager-ly as if about to ask what they weresaying. But then sho rememberedthat some one would hnve to come, sitclose beside her, and speak very loud-ly to make her understand. And shesighed a little and was silent, content-ing herself with watching the changingexpressions on tho faces around her.

Yet she was the brightest womanthere, the most gracious, the mostcultivated and tactful. If some onohad only taken the trouble to sit be-sic- e

her and give her the clow to thovarious remarks she could havo entercd Into tho conversation and add-ed much to it.

But she was deaf and they werethoughtless and rudo. It is so easyjust to neglect them and lot the con-versation run over their heads. Thereiiro few faults of which a usually well-bre- d

company is more often guilty.Yet it is an extremely rude and un-

kind thing.There should be some one in every

Sleeping in Sunshine.A man who has just returned from

n sojourn at the seashore has solvedthe problem of taking a siesta on thebeach in full sunshine without somuch as the shade of a parasol andyot without injury to the eyes, saysthe Philadelphia Record. "It's simpleonough when you know how," ho says,"and consists merely in putting alight-weig- bandage over the eyesand fastening it in tho back so itwon't como off during sleep. A hand-kerchief will do if you haven't anything better, but it is needlessly wideand a little heavy. All you want isa narrow strip which keeps out tholight and yet permits you to get alltho air you want, something which isimpossible if you put a hat over yourface. Tho bandage ought to be darkin color, too, it possible. A woman'slong black silk stocking is just thething. I learned this trick from anarmy offlcer, who says it's a commonthing for soldiers sleeping in the openon tho western plains, where it beginsto get light as early as 4 o'clock intho morning and where sleep withoutsuch a bandage is impossible."

TREASURED GIFT OF MONARCH.

Luck of Muncastcr Hall a Relic of Un-

fortunate King.In Muncastcr castle. In Cumberland,

England, the seat of Lord Muucaster,there is, in the oldest part of thebuilding, a reoin which is known asthe King's room. According to tradi-tion this was once occupied by HenryVI. In it may be seen four ancientbedposts of handsome carved oak, Inan excellent stale of preservation, andwhich are believed to belong to thobed in which the king slept.

It was In the year MCI that ho wasat Muncastcr. The Wars of the Roseswore convulsing tho kingdom at thetime, and tho unfortunate king, flee-

ing for his life after tho defeat of histroops at Towton, made his way intoCumberland, where he was reduced towandering about in a destitute condi-tion on tho hills. Hero ho was foundone night by some loyal shepherds,who conducted him safely to Muncas-to- r

castle, whore lived Sir John Pen-nington, an ancestor of Lord Muncas-ter- ,

who was a devoted adherent tothe Lancastrian cause. Henry receiveda hearty welcome, and lay concealedat Muncastcr for many weeks, whilehis enemies made active search forhim high and low. At length his pres-ence there became suspected, and hecould no longer remain in safety. Bo-for- e

setting out on his travels againHenry took sorrowful leave of hisfaithful host. "Silver and gold andjewels have none to give," he said,"but this will I give you, and alongwith it the blessing of the most un-

The New York World.THR.1CE-A-WEE- K EDITION.

Read Wherever the English Language is Spoken.

The Thrick-a-Wuk- k Would has made special arrange-ments for the year 1005. Its already great news service hasbeen extended and, as heretofore, it will report all importantevents promptly, accurately and impartially.

An original and striking feature of the Thrice-a-Wke- k

Wori.u in 1005 will be its serial publication of the strongestand best fiction that has ever appeared in the columns ol anynewspaper. The novels already arranged for, and which areby writers known throughout the world, are:

CARDIGAN. By Robert W. Chambers.A brilliant romance of the opening days of the Revolution, depicting lifeon what was then the border in the state of New York. Scenes with thepowerful tribes of the Six Nations, and a thrilling description of theBattle of Lexington. Contains a love story, told with great force andcharm.

BEFORE THE DAWN. Ay Joseph A. AKsheler.A powerful story of the Civil War, describing the last days of the Con-

federacy in Richmond, vividly depicting conditions as the world's great-est war was drawing to a close. ' Contains a strong love story, and themighty struggle of Lee and Orant in the wilderness passes throughits pages.

THE REDS OF THE MIDI. By Felix Gras.A story of the French Revolution, the greatest ovent in the history ofthe modern world. A peasant boy who marches with the tremendousbattalion of death, the Marseilles column, tells how they overthrew theFrench monarchy and achieved the conquest of Europe. The lovestory is of singular delicacy.

THE CARDINAL'S ROSE. By Van Tassel Sutphen.This is the last touch of modernity. The hero wanders into a continu-ous performance in New York City. He sees a scene in a biographwhich arouses his curiosity and which leads him into a remarkable seriesof adventures in a remote part of the world and to the winning of thehand of a princess.

THE BLAZED TRALI. By Stewart Edward White.Mr. White has opened an absolutely new field, and he is now perhapsthe most famous of all the younger American writers. This is a storyof the great northwestern logging camps, and tells how the character ofa powerful man of action was built up and how it was finally softenedby the influence of a woman's love.

Thanksgiving.Washington, O. C, Nov. 4. The pres

cient today issued his proclamation namingThursday, November 30, an a day f n r

thanksgiving. Tlie proclamation is as fol-

lows:

Hy the president of tin; United Slates, aproclamation:

When nearly three hundred years ago,the first settlers came to the country whichhas now become the ureal republic, theyconfronted not only hardship and privationbut terrible risk to their lives. In thosegrim days the custom grew of setting apartone day in each year for special service ofthanksgiving to the Almighty for preserv-ing the people through the changing seasons. 1 lie custom has become nationaland hallowed by immortal usage.

We live in easier and more plentiful timesthan our forefathers, the men, who withrugged strength, faced the rugged days; andyet the dangers to national life are quite asgreat no.v as at any previous time in ourhistory. It is eminently lilting that once ayear our people should set apart a day ofpraise and thanksgiving to the giver of

good, and at the same time, that they express their thanks for abundant merciesreceived, should manfully acknowledgetheir shortcomings and pledge themselvessolumuly and in good faith to s t r i v o toovercome them.

During the past year we have beenblessed with bountiful crops. Our business prosperity has been great. No otherpeople has ever stood on as high a level aswe now stand on. We are not threatened by

loes witnoul. J no loos within are ourpassions and follies, and against these thereis always need that we should war.

Therefore, 1 now set apart the joth ofthis November as a day of thanksgivingand prayer for the future, and on that day

ask that throughout the land the peoplegather in their homes and places of worship, and on the rendering of thanks to theMost High for the manifold blessings of

the past year, consecrate themselves to

lile ot cleanliness, honor and wisdom, so

that this nation may do its allotted workon the earth in a manner worthy of themwho founded it and of those who preservedit.

In witness whereof I have hereunto setmy hand and caused the seal of the UnitedStates to be affixed.

Done at the city of Washington this .md

day of November, in the year of our Lordone thousand nine hundred and five, andof the independence of the United Statesthe one hundred and thirtieth.

PRIZE FLOUR. AHEADThere is a $5 gold piece waiting at the

food show for the best bread baker in

Cleveland. The (lour that this bread wasmade from was a brand called "Prize,"made by the Monarch Milling Co., Hutch-

inson, Kansas. This broad, out of over ahundred loaves, was the most ideal as to

artistic baking, lightness, texture, shapesize, appearance, flavor, crust, taste andcutting propensities. All of these thingswere known to and considered by the fourcompetent judges and all the committeefrom the Grocers' association who had thecontest in charge.

The fact that the first prize was awardeel bread made irom Kansas flour overbread made from some of the crack Minnesota spring wheat patents is a featherin iho cap of this Kansas mill, and ourNorthwestern miller friends have awakena to the fact thai they have a lively andsuccessful competiton in flour from the Jay- -

Electricity in Agriculture.For at least half a century men have

been dlscussiug the possibilities in theapplication of electricity to the grow-ing of plants. I saw in an old paperpublished before 1S50 a long articleon some experiments being made iuthe application of electricity to grow-ing plants, and also predictions as tothe future of such a combination.Within the last fifteen years a greatmany experiments have been madealong this line. The students ofagriculture have not, however, putvery much faith in the use of electric-ity in the growing of crops. Theremay be, however, more in it than nowseems possible. The experimentsmade in the last ten years have oc-

curred In almost every country ofEurope and America, and from lati-tudes varying from the polar regionsto the tropics. While the resultshave not been altogether favorable,yet the majority of experiments haveshown a decided increase in the speedwith which plants grow when they aresubjected to electrical conditions.Where electricity has been used in thegrowing of plants, there has been anoted increase in the digestible, nit-rogenous matter in seeds, of the sugarin sugar beets, and of the elementsthat produce sweetness in berries.It must be realized that most of theseexperiments are carried on in greenhouses nnd very little in the openfields. Several of the late writers onelectricity in its relation to agricul-ture figure out that In the experimentsup to this time there has been an In-

crease of 45 per cent in the crop whereelectricity was applied on land of aver-age fertility. The better the land Iscultivated, the more scientifically it Ishandled, and the more It Is manured,the greater is the increase per cent.A striking fact is that on poor soilselectricity does not seem to affect theplants. This would seem to indicatethat the work of the electricity is tohasten the preparation of the plantfood. This may bo by stimulating thebacteria in the soil or by stimulatingthe energies of the plant in reachingout after the food. This would be fur-ther borne out by the fact that thereare some vegetables that cannot en-

dure the electrical treatment unlessthey are watered. If watered theymake a very rapid increase. Amongthe plants thus sensitive are peas, car-rots, and cabbage. There may besome electrical power in the sunshine,because it has been discovered inthese experiments that when the elec-trical treatment is given during a sun-shiny period, the vegetables are dam-aged and the treatment has to be dis-

continued during the hot periods onsunny days. Charles Comstock, CassCo., Mich., in Farmers' Review.

Cleaning the Fence Corners.It seems a shameful waste that on

so many farms the fence comers areused as catch-all- s for all sorts of rub-bish and worn-ou- t machinery, andsometimes even for good machinerywhich should be under cover If It isexpected to do the service that is re-

quired of it. On some farms there isenough land going to waste In theseneglected corners to support a fam-ily. If anything at all is raised onthem it is usually a crop of weeds.Now I would suggest that farmerswho have been negligent or thought-less in this respect place It uponthemselves as one of their fall tasksthat they will have all rubbish cornerson their land cleaned out and the landused to some purpose. Not only willthey then be getting an income fromall the land in which they have in-

vested money and on which they arepaying taxes, but their farms will takeon a neat, well-care- d for appearancewhich they have not known for a longwhile. E. V. Hagau. Oneida (;,-).-

, V.'ls.

Effects of Pruning.It is astonishing sometimes to find

how littlo the average orchardistthinks of the actual problems at issuewith pruning of his trees. An import-ant effect of pruning is to Increasevigor. Pruning is also practiced toproduce larger and better fruits andliowers; to keep the plant within man-ageable limits; to remove superfluousor injurious parts; to facilitate spray-ing, tillage and harvesting; to trainthe plant to some desired form.

One of the noticeable effects ofsevere pruning and the consequentdisturbed equilibrium of the plantis the formation of water sprouts. Theappearanco of the water sprouts seemsto be influenced more by the vigor ofthe plant and the amount of pruningthan by the season of the year inwhich the pruning is done. It is prob-able, however, that fewer watersprouts will arise if pruning '.a doneafter midsummer, since at that timethe growth of the season Is completed.In any case water sprouts may be re-

garded as weeds in the tree top andshould be treated as such. The tend-ency of plants is to grow from the up-

permost buds. By pruning in one waythis tendency is augmented, iu anotherit is checked.

As a rule, in dealing with fruit trees,the latter end is desired, since theprinciple that checking growth inducesfruit fullness is universally recog-nized. The heading in of younggrowths tends to develop lateral anddormant buds or to thicken the top.So that the question of heading re-

solves itself into a question of per-sonal ideals; to secure a thick toppedtree it is necessary. It has, however,the further very marked advantage ofinducing the development of fruit budsnear the body of the tree rather thanfar out on the limbs. This in the caseof plums nnd lender wooded plantsis an important consideration. Prof.W. M. Munson.

State Interest in Forestry.There is no doubt that our states

can well afford to take a greater In-

terest in forestry. J. H. Bissell ofMichigan, a student of forestry con-

ditions, urges that land laws be sochanged that the state can acquireall pine stump lands, and that no for-estry lands shall be sold except toactual settlers. Ho says that thereare vast stretches of land In Michiganthat the state should reclaim and re-

plant. These lands were previouslycovered with forests, were cut over,and were afterwards burned over.Without a systematic planting byman, this land will be ages in recloth-In- g

itself with a tree growth. Thewriter heard an official in Wisconsinsay that it was a practice there amongthe lumbermen to cut over a piece ofland and afterwards refuse to paytaxes upon it. There were no buyersfor the laud when the tax sales tookplace, and so the laud Would revert tothe state, where It would remain untila new growth of suillclent size to bovaluable commercially appeared on It.Then they would buy It back fromthe state at a less price than the taxeswould have been. There seems to beno reason why the states should bemade a party to this kind of a game.

The Forest Question in Italy.The Italian nation long ago passed

laws regulating the forestry of thecountry. In 1877. by permission of thelegislators, about 4. 000.000 ac res of for-

est were withdrawn from the operationof the fomst laws in Italy, and rtbout1,000,000 acres more in Sicily and Sar-dinia. As might have been foreseen,there has since that time been a reck-less destruction of forests, and It nowseems evident thnt the governmentmust again step In and pass laws tosave the forests still remaining, andto secure the replanting of tho out-ov-

areas.

Creamery Sewage.We frequently notice in creamery

papers reports of creameries havingtrouble with sewage. This sewageconsists largely of refuse from milkvats and washings from the floors oftho creamery. This contains a largoamount of casein. When this putrlflesit produces an odor that Is as offen-sive as decaying animal matter. It is.no wonder, therefore, that when thissewage Is run off In almost openditches through a settled community,It has been the cause of suits and In-

junctions against the creameries.There Is no reason why the matter ofsewage should mako trouble If thekitest scientific methods are known tothe creamery manager. What Isknown as the septic tank system isproving a complete success every-where. This consists in conveying thesewage through a perfectly tight pipesome hundreds of feet to a closed tankor vat, in which the material Is almoststagnant for some hours. The ca-

pacity of the tank must be greatenough so that the How of waterthrough it will be very slow. Crossplanks are put in to Impede the prog-ress of the sewage. At the further endof this tank, at the bottom, is an ori-

fice permitting the outflow of the clearwater. If this tank is tight, what Isknown as anaerobic bacteria, that is,bacteria living without air, operateupon the scum that forms in the tankand entirely destroy the organic mat-ter, changing it Into gas. In this wayeverything is destroyed oxcept theash. Nothing putrlfles, for the putrl-factlv- o

bacteria are not present.Therefore no offensive smells are en-

gendered. This sysetm is now beingused in the sewage systems of 500cities in Europe and America. It isequally suitable to creameries, cheesefactories aud farms. The procedureof its operation is so well known thatany state experiment station can sup-ply the required information. Everyfarmer that reads this paper, and ev-ery creamery manager, can make him-self the possessor of the theories inpractice in this matter, for tho proc-ess itself is not patented, althoughsome companies have been formedthat claim to have patented certainmethods in connection with it. It issafe to say, however, that none ofthese i?atents are essential to the op-

eration of the system. Elmer Ash-to-

Bureau Co.. III., in Farmers' Re-view.

The Weight of Milk.Professor Van Norman of the In-

diana Experiment Station says thatone gallon of milk of averagedensity weighs 8 pounds 1) ounces.This will vary slightly accordingto the amount of cream in it.Tho greater the proportion of creamthe less will be the weight, ascream is lighter than tho milk. Inthe weighing of cream, the percentageof fat counts largely. If the creamcontains 15 per cent of butter fat, itwill weigh 8 pounds and G ounces. Ifit contains .'55 per cent of fat, it willweigh 8 pounds 3 ounces; 40 per cent,8 pounds and 1 ounce.

Milk for the City.Any farmer engaged in supplying

milk for tho city should bo as con-scientious about it as he Is about themilk produced for his own family. Heshould not use any kind of preserva-tive, and should see that tho milk isfresh when it leaves the farm. Mix-ing old milk and new milk results Ina great increase of the bacterial con-tent, as the temperature of the oldmilk is raised by the now. If themorning's milk and the night's milkare to be poured together for one de-livery, the mixing should not be untilafter the temperature of tho last milk,lug has been reduced as low as

work, now has a complete clinicalsurgery. Some animals, of course, ar-

rive at the surgery in a hopeless con-

dition; they are therefore mercifullyput out of their misery In an asphyxi-ating machine known as the "synoc-tone.- "

Any animal, however, that is at allcurable is treated or operated uponwitli the greatest care. Cats allowthemselves to be operated upon withsurprising calmness, and punctures orinjections of serum are novf quiteeasily made by the operators at thesurgery. Tho throat troubles to whichcats are peculiarly liable are exam-ined by means of the phoneudoscope;this is an apparatus fitted with a son-si- t

For a long time It was found impos-sible to operate successfully on a dogowing to the difficulty of preventing Ittearing the wound, thus causing fatalcomplications. These difficulties havenow been overcome, the eye being pro-tected in a sort of cork helmet whichallows the animal to eat and drink,but at the same time thoroughly pro-tects the eye.

projected Michigan state sanitariumfor consumptives, the discovery hasbeen made that the northern part, ofthe lower peninsula of Michigan is thehealthiest part of the United States.This is not guess work by interestedparties, but the verdict of the UnitedStates census. It will astonish manywho have heard the claims mnde forthe Maine woods, the Adirondack's,the mountain regions of North Caro-

lina and Georgia, for Colorado, Cali-

fornia, Arizona. New Mexico, to hearthat the tables of the census bureaudemonstrate that the palm belongs toMichigan. Freedom from consumptionbeing the first consideration, theboard having the inquiry in chargefound that of the nine registrationstates (where registration of deathswith the cause is obligatory), Michi-

gan stands lowest on the list, with a

death rate for consumption of 11)7.:

New Hampshire, the next lowest on

the list, stands i:,2.; Massachusetts.1SG.2. and New York, 104.1. RuralMichigan stands An examina-tion of the chart for Michigan showsno less than thirty-nin- e counties withn lower rate than 95 (which are shownIn white). There are only live suchcounties in New York state. Com-

pared with other parts of the countrythe low rate for northern Michigan ismost remarkable. The consumptiondeath rate for cities in the New Eng-

land states is 244: for cities in themiddle states 2r.!. lake states l.td.southern states 277, San Francisco1104. Thus it is seen that even thecities of the lake region compare mostfavorably with cities of the rest of thecountry In the matter or exemptionfrom pulmonary tuberculosis. Havingfound that the lake region appears tobo most favorable, the board stuck apin in the center of this region on

tho map, in the upper part of thelower peninsula of Michigan. Herearc the great lakes to the north, theonst. and the west. Here are plno andhemlock forests, filling the air withbalsam. Here is a porous soil ofgravel and glacial drift, with goodwater uncontamlnated by cities. Andhere Is abundance of sunshine, withabsence of fog. So the board reasoned.Examining the vital statistics of thostate, it. was found that the four coun-

ties of Otsego, Crawford, Roscommonand Gladwin show an average deathrate for all forms of tuberculosis forthe past live years of only r8.(i. Ham-

ilton county, New York', the Adiron-dack county making tho best showing,has a consumption death rate, accord-ing to tho census, twice as large astho first three Michigan countiesnamed above, while the cancer, pneu-

monia and diphtheria charts left com-

parison entirely out of the questionand show a clear white record fornorthern Michigan. It will be littlewonder, therefore, if the state sani-

tarium is located in one of tho coun-

ties above named, distant from anylargo city, and where the pine scentedair will continually blow through theopen cottages of the consumptives'camp, for tho sanitarium will be of

tho camp charartor, rather than a

large building, and will bo a opento tho sun and air as possible, Heretho campers will be encouraged to

tako moderate exercise, to eat nour-

ishing food, rich in vegetable fats, andto get tunned and toughened in theopen nfv. 13y this means It is hopedthat the consumption death list ofMichigan, 2,noo per year, will be ma-

terially reduced, and that a large pro-

portion of the cabpers will be return-ed to tfjeir homos strengthened and

cured.

The Outdoor Gymnasium.The nucleus of the out door gym-

nasium is the swimming pool. Swim-ming was meant to be not merely anoccasional and precarious pleasure,but an inseparable1 accompaniment ofbathing, cleanliness achievedincidentally. A swimming pool, there-fore, Is a fundamental need for thosewho have not access to a convenientstream or body of water suitable forthis purpose. Those accustomed tothe delightfully Invigorating effects ofthe morning swim consider it as muchof a necessity as their breakfast, oreven more.

Most artificial swimming pool3 nreunfortunately built Indoors. An In-

door pool not only lacks the fascinat-ion of the outdoor adaptation of "theold swimln' hole," but It also robs oneof ihe natural accompaniments of out-door bathing fresh air and sunshine.Uathers often spend considerabletink lying about on the banks of thestream or on tho sandy beach, alter-nately basking in the rays of the sunand dipping beneath tho coolingwaves. Powerful Impressions aremade upon the body by the contact ofthe skin with the cool outdoor airand sunshine.

The outdoor gymnasium providesa combination of the healing agenciesof nature, abundance of pure air forbreathing, facilities for exercise, sunbaths, air bath, earth baths, and waterbaths. Here one can enjoy all thopleasure and obtain all the benefits,and at the same time escape the pub-licity of sea or river bathing.

Public outdoor gymnasiums are pro-vided In some of tho large cities, andare built by sanitariums, hotels, fac-tories, etc. They should be Intro-duced into all hospitals and children'shomes, and no public institutionshould be considered complete with-out one. In the heart, of our largecities, conducted In connection withthe parks, they would be a powerfulmeans of antagonising tho deteriorat-ing influences of city life.

Out of Door Nurseries.One of New York's most lnmou

specialists for children has latelymade a plea for roof playgrounds.On one of the roof playgrounds estab-lished for tho use of the children ofthe poor, the averago attendance Is2.00(1 per night. Three or four teach-ers maintain order, and there arebands for music and dancing.

In the city tho roof can be utilizedfor an outdoor nursery, which willgreatly promote the health and hap-piness of the children. Tho roofshould be floored over for a certainspace, and partitions built to protectthe children from tho wind, and rail-ings or fences put up to keep themfrom falling off. Awnings are neces-sary to protect them from too muchsun and from rain.

Here tho children can piny nearlyevery day. winter or summer. Inthese private outdoor nurseries themother can keep an eye on the child-ren who are removed from tho unde-sirable conditions and contacts of thecity streets and parks.

A Suggestion for the Corpulent.A writer In McCalls tells of the fol-

lowing experience, which those whoro anxious to get rid of superfluous

He.su wi'l find suggestive: "A stouvomnn, lost forty pounds withoutruining a wrinkle, simply by a thor-rug-

Tized, Nezvous MothersMaKe Unhappy Homes Their Condition Irritates

Both Husband and Children How Thousandsof Mothers Have Been Saved Frcm NervousProstration and Made Strong and Well.

Mrs. Chester tfurryA nervous, irritable mother, often on

the verge of hysterics, is unlit to carefor children ; it ruins a child's disposi-tion and reacts upon herself. Thetrouble between children and theirmothers too often is due to tho factthat the mother has some female weak-ness, and she is entirely unfit to beartho strain upon her nerves that govern-ing children involves; it is impossiblefor her to do anything' calmly.

The ills of women act like a firebrandupon the nerves, consequently nine-tenth- s

of the nervous prostration, ner-vous elespondency. " the blues." sleep-lessness, anel nervous irritability ofwomen arise from some derangementof the female organism.

Do you experience fits of depressionwith alternating withextreme irritability'.' Are your spiritseasily affected, so that one minute youlaugh, and the next minute you feellike crying ?

Do you feel something like a ball ris-ing iu your throat and threatening tochoice you ; all the senses perverted,morbidly sensitive to light and sound :

pain in the ovaries, and especiallybetween the shoulders; bearing downpains; nervous dyspepsia, and almostcontinually cross and snappy V

If so, your nerves are in a shatteredcondition, and you are threatened withnervous prostration.

Proof is monumental that nothing inthe worlel is better for nervous prostra-tion than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-table Compound ; thousands and thou-sands of women testify to this fact.

Uncle Joe Cannon is lining up his forces

to tight the President's policy of tariff re-

vision, and there may be some warm times

experienced in the next congress.

We don't generally say very much about

our own business affairs, but we do appre-

ciate the fact that one Tucumcari citizen

has taken nine subscriptions to this paper.

Cortelyou, postmaster general, has de-

cided to extend the civil service system to

fifty thousand more postmasters. This will

make the jobs of all the big offices a steady

good thing.

Tucumcari is to have a street fair, be-

ginning the 5th of December. The Amer-

ican Amusement Company will put on rive

shows the elephant will walk the ropeand a pretty girl will go up in balloon, etc.

It is believed that President Roosevel

will recommend that the territorial govern

ment be continued two years longer at least

in Arizona and New Mexico, and thenfavor their admission as separate states

Alex. D. Goldenberg is one of the busiest

men in Tucumcari he is doing business

too. He believes in Tucumcari first, last

and all the time. He stops long enough t

sell a town lot accasionally and generally

gets the buyer to build a home.

Miss Alice Roosevelt's 27 boxes of pres-

ents have occupied the time of port of en-

try officials for several days. It does seem

that $60,000 is running into money for a

lot of junk much of which will never be

seen again, or be of any use to her or any

body else.

The farmer who turns his land in the win-

ter months is going to raise the premium

products next season. Broke land will be

in fine condition for seeding next year and

the melting of the winter snows will go

into the earth which being broke deep will

hold the moisture. A good beginning is

half the battle.

Justice Mills of Las Ve?s. Judge Mm'. .s

highly esteemed by our people. While the

personnel of the New Mexico Judieiar;.

ranks with any like body of men who ever

donned the Judicial ermine, Judge Mills

is our neighbor, and like Judge Mann, tha:

sturdy Nebraskan, we love him as a man

and respect his Judicial opinions. Not be

cause he is Judge Mills or because he is a

federal official, but for the reason that he

is a clean, brainy and hightoned gentleman.(

The M. E. Church, South, supper was aj

good one. The good women of the organiza- -

tion deserve great credit for the effort thc

are making to pay oCE the indebtedness yet

remaining against the new church. If it j

were not for our women and the churchesthere would not yet be much law west of

the Pecos. The receipts from suppers

sold amounted to about 535.

The Knights of Pythias are a young or-

der in Tucumcari, and the membership is

a worthy one. An entertainment is on the

tapis for the night of Thanksgiving, and all

Knights of Pythias and their families are

invited. So no matter where your mem-

bership may be, come and commune with

us, is the the request of the local order.

(Special Corresponded e.)

Another meal of toard tack and I

was off again in the light of earlymorning on my way southward. Forobvious reasons I wished to put a con-

siderable distance between me andAuckland before coming to a stop any-

where, and although passing severallikely looking places, I made only acouple of casual inquiries for workuntil about midday. Then 1 approach-ed a comfortable old farmhouse bythe road, and asked for a drink ofwater.

"Wouldn't you rather have somemilk?" said the woman who had responded to my knock.

Naturally I would rather, and I did.after wMeh I asked her if she knewof any one who wanted to hire a man.

"Can you milk?" she inquired im-

mediately.I had not done any milking since

was 14 years old. and not a great dialbefore that, but I was quite preparedto go at it. and I told her that therewere few things about a farm whichI understood bettor, a statement alto- -

gether true if rightly interpreted. Shethen directed me to a neiuhbonnuplace where they wanted soim imd

for the summer, chielly to attend tothe milking. It was off the main roa;but. as I wasn't enthusiastic for an-

other meal of hard tack. I concludedto make a call there and at least s.e

cure a dinner.

not remark particularly at. the time,but I learned its importance later. I'h; the first and pretty nearly the only j

question that is asked an applicantfor farm work in New Zealand.

New Zealand is, if anything, in thoother direction. In many wayu NewZealand Is an inferior country, agri-

culturally, but in tho matter of trans-portation it has i& immense l?nd.This may sound paradoxical of a landwhich has as yet only limited railwayfacilities and is above all others (hemost remote from the great centers ofthe world, but its explanation lies In

the fact that practically every part ofNew Zealand is within at least fiftymiles of the seaboard and once on thecoast there Is frequent and reasonablycheap steamship service to tho mar-

She was the newtypewriter girl andfrom a countryhome. Chicago hadbeen a wonderfulplace In her Imagl- -

nation, as shewould read about Itand plan to live In

i It. Now she washere and earningmoney.

To her the citylife was so new andexciting she had

eyes and ears for everything, and no-

ticed many things that city young people did not see or hear.

It is this excitement, caused by thenewness of things, which inducescountry boys and girls to push aheadwhen they come to the city, and theirstored up energy, due to simple coun-try living, enables them to endure theextra amount of work the excitementleads them into.

Delia was ambitious and naturallybright.

She was anxious to succeed andwanted to learn how to make the mostof her time and money.

Early one Monday forenoon, beforeher employer had read his mall, ayoung man enme Into tho ofllce.

Delia had nothing to do but read orwatch her machine. She preferred toread, as she greatly enjoyed goodstories and Interesting articles. Yetshe had hoard that books containedsecond-hande- d information and thatthe best things were seen and heard,so she could not help but listen whenthe others began talking on a generalsubject.

They had finished their business,and her employer made this remark:

"Tom, why do you like diamonds?I never owned one In my life."

Tom took a minute to think andDelia waited with more eagerness forthe reply than did her employer.

A minute is a long time to take toanswer a question, but Tom was athinker, and he took time to answer aquestion that Interested him. Finallyhe said: "There are several reasonswhy. I have owned a fair pricedstone over since I began going onthe road, though I don't wear it insight all tho time.

"I never carry them in my pocketsfor the sake of handling them, as agreat. American preacher is reportedto have done, but I want one aroundmo somewhere, all the time. I likea diamond becnuse it is the most pre-cious thing you can purchase.

"It is the visible representative ofeternal truth.

"I own one because It is a perma-nent pleasure, an Indestructiblesource of enjoyment; and it Is a safeInvestment." Delia wanted to askwhere he bought them, but she didnot dare to, and Tom went on to say:

"There is nothing else I can carrywith mo and enjoy, upon which i canso quickly and easily raise as muchmonoy.

"The average person can buy a dia-

mond every year and never know it.if they will concentrate tho litiio sumsof monoy that so easily run away."

Delia and her employer had givenclose attention to Tom's reasons foradmiring diamonds. Her employerthought Tom was full of explanations,and he was tempted to drop cigarsand try Tom's plan.

Delia was convinced. She watchedtho dimes, and boxed up those likelyto go for foolish things. Soon shehad sufficient to make a first paymenton a beautiful $100 stone.

Months rolled along, and withoutpinching herself on necessities orconveniences in the least, she paid forthe precious stout;. Paid for it withthe little sums of money that usuallygo through one's fingers uncon-sciously.

Tho following year Delia had along spell. Her savings disap-peared and her friends, spending theirmoney as it came, had nothing withwhich to help her. She did not wantto send home for money, yet sue need-ed rest, and money for her doctor'sbill and railroad fare.

Taking her diamond tn the manfrom whom she purchased it, shefound mat he was willing to lend her$50, without interest, taking the stoneus security, and returning It as toonas she could pay back the money.This $,"j0 enabled her to pay what ahaowed, and go home for a good longvacation.

When she got back to her type-writer she learned that her employerhad found out in some way how shehad purchased and raised money onher diamond. Ho told Tom, and Tornsuggested that the girl be given halfpay during her sickness.

in a. few days Tom made anothersuggestion, which was that he begiven an introduction. Ho admired agirl that respected diamonds, andsomehow Delia could not help but ad-

mire Tom. She told him about hercountry homo, and Tom had some-thing to say about a dozen big citieswith which he was well acquainted.

As Delia had come well recommend-ed and Tom was a favorite, the em-

ployer had no objections to their talk-ing about diamonds. So they talked.They even took tin evevlng for a talk.

Delia got Iter friend, her first dia-

mond back again. Then she got adiamond from Tom. And her em-

SONG OF THE CROAKER,

Poet Lnurentcs have never been an asset in our family, hut a cousin of ours in

Imperial, California, at last sins to our liking on the subject of "Croakers." John is

interested in Imperial valley real estate and waterworks system of Imperial and Cal- -

axico, and from the meter of his poetry has certainly none against a Croaker fromCroakersville. This hibred race of cannibals sometimes take up room that could beoccupied to belter advantage by men of better character, and the song is our sentiment

belter than we could express it ourselves:

The Croaker.John M. Kkitii.

There was once an old fellow who always cried downKvery effort proposed for tint tfood of the town;And croaking, to him, was such infinite pleasureThat he plied it beyond any reason of measure.He would approach you with "Well what's the news?And e'er you replied he'd expose his own views.He'd tell you that people were making a blunder,My coming in here, for the town would go under,For the companies here, and the big corporationsWere crushing it out with their exploitations;And then when the ditches were running quite low

, He declared they would yet cease entirely to flow,

And that the: ground then would be parched aud so dryThat the crops that were growing would wither and die.Kven when the canals were full to o'orflowingAnd for long level miles were the fines! crops growingHe declared the whole country would soon be drowned out,A dead cinch he knew what he was talking about.

"Why, this is the sorriest 'bum little town,'He often remarked, with an ominous frownThe merchants can't shelve their goods in a way

To show the advantage of a business display.That the doctors who live here are frothing but quacks.And the lawyers all rascals, he set down as facts.The officers, too, were but organized jobbers,Who stood hand in hand with and robbers.The newspapers, too, were the poorest excuse,And not fit for respectable folks to peruse.And the towns water system he gave it a score;The electric lights, too, were exceedingly poor.He had praise for the shacks of the neighboring townsBut not a word for the brick blocks of his own.

And thus he continued from day unto dayBelittling the town and its people always,'Til one day while passing a stable near byA blind mule stopped eating and kicked him sky high,And there he was nearer to heaven's bright doorThan he will be hereafter or had been before.

The coroner came on the scene to review it;Verdict: "The mule knew the best way to do it."The undertaker, though given a sad melancholy,While preparing this "case" was unusually jolly,Keeping time to the swing of hilarious songsHe flung the corpse into its coffin with tongs.

On his funeral day was all business suspended;Were the streets deserted, the rabble all ended?Not any, the people had not to the grave yard hiedThey were all congregated where the croaker had died,And were there celebrating with holiday cheerThe end of his slanderous, lying career.And the blind mule stood out on the spot for hoursLike a conquering hero, bedecded with flowers.

I.'KNVOl.

, From this tale, a Jhought I drewNot patented its free to you:Of the vilest snakes that encumber the groundThe croaker is the worst around.He will not see himself, aright,And stands in better people's light.

The new boatattains an average speed of twentyknots when submerged and can in caseof necessity make thirty knots anhour, thus exceeding the speed of thofastest cruiser.

THE MYSTIC NUMBER

CURIOUSINPROPERTIES

ARITHMETIC.OF "NINE" To make Cheap Gas-ligh- t for

The Great Plato Once Got Rid of Boreby Giving Him Puzzle in Which This Country HomesPeculiarity FiguredSee if You CanSolve It.

Most people arc ncquninted withsome of the curious properties of thenumber nine in ordinary arithmetic.For example, write down a numbtrcontaining as many figures as you like,add these figures together and deductthe sum from the first number. Now,the sum of the figures in this nuwnumber will always be a multiple ofnine.

There was once a worthy man atAthens who was not. only a crankyarithmetician, but also a mystic. Hewas deeply convinced of the magicproperties of the number nine, andwas perpetually strolling out to thegroves of Academia to bother poor oldPlato with his nonsensical ideas aboutwhat he called his "lucky number."Hut Plato devised a way of gettingrid of him. When the seer one dayproposed to inflict on him a lengthydisquisition on his favorite topic, thephilosopher cut him short with theremark, "Look hero, old chappie"(that is the nearest translation of theoriginal Greek term of familiarity),"when you can bring me the solutionof this littlo mystery of the three

nines I shall be happy to listen toyour treatise, and, in fact, record iton my phonograph for the benefit ofposterity."

Plato then showed, in the mannerdepicted in our illustration, that threenines may be arranged so as to repre-sent the number eleven, by puttingthem into the form of a fraction. Thepuzzle ho then propounded was, to soarrange the three nines that they willrepresent the number twenty.

It is recorded of the old crank that,after working hard at the problem fornine years, he one day, at nine o'clockon the morning of the ninth day otthe ninth month, fell down nine steps,knocked out nine teeth and expired innine minutes. It will be rememberedthat nine was his lucky number. Itwas evidently also Plato's.

In solving the above littlo puzzle,only the most elementary arithmeticalsigns are necessary. Though the an-

swer is absurdly simple when you booit, many readers will have no littlodifficulty in discovering it. Take yourpencil and see if you can arrange thethree nines to represent twenty.

Solution.To divide 18 by 9 (or nine-tenth-

Now put the pine into a Glass of IWater, as in picture. nN vC--

1 here you have a complete Gasplant for 25 cents.

Touch a match to the Burnerand you'll get a beautiful White Gas-light.

Of course, this is only an experi-ment, but it shows the wonderful sim-plicity of Acetylene Lighting.

Tliat very simplicity gave Acetylene

Light a setback, at first.It seemed so simple to turn Calcium Carbide into

Gas-lig- that over 600 different kinds of "tanks" and"Acetylene Machines" were invented, patented, andmarketed for the purpose, by about as many differentpeople.

Well, the thing to be expected certainly happened!About 530 of these "Acetylene Machines" had been

invented and sold by people who knew more aboutTinware than they did about g.

The "Calcium Carbide" was all right all the time,but 530 of the machines for turning it into Gas wereall wrong all the time.

So Acetylene Gas "got a bad name," though it isclear enough nozv that it never deserved it at any time.

It was like selling Wood Stoves to burn Hard Coalin, and then blaming the Coal for not burning.

Lots of things happened to grieve the Owners othese 530 makes of alleged "Acetylene Machines."

But very few accidents occurred from them even inthe days of rank experiment and dense ignorance,among, "Generator" Makers.

Or coursc. a gun will go off unexpectedly, now andthen, if the trigger be pulled by a person who "didn'tknow it was loaded."

But, that's no fault of the Ammunition is it?Well, finally the Insurance Companies got after

these 530 odd makes of "Acetylene Machines" thatwouldn't Acetylatc, and the Insurance Board made aninvestigation of all Generators that were submitted tothem.

Then, out of the 600 odd "Machines" patented,only about 70 were "permitted" by the Insurance Boardto lie used.

Oh, what a how! was there!By "permitted" I mean that tr?e Insurance Board

was willing that any building should be Insured, with

FOR WOMENtroubled with ills peculiar to

out extra charge, which used any one of these 70Acetylene Generators it had found safe, and effective,just as it permitted houses to be piped for City Gas,or wired for Electricity, under proper conditions.

Now, the Insurance Companies ought to knowwhether or not these 70 different makes of AcetyleneGenerators were absolutely Safe to use.

Because, they have to pay the bills, if Fire or Ex-plosion occurs, from any one of the Acetylene Gener-ators they authorize.

And, here's a proof of their good judgment.Though there arc now Two Million people using

Acetylene Light in America, there have only been four3rircs from it in one year, against 8865 Fires fromKerosene and Gasoline.

There have also been 4691 Fires from Electricity,1707 Fires from City Gas, and 520 Fires from Candles.

Besides these there have been 26 Fires from theSun's rays, But, only four Fires from Acetylene.

That shows how careful the Insurance Board wasin its examination of Acetylene Generators, and in"permitting" only the 70 makes that were above sus-picion, out of the 600 experiments that were once onthe market.

Well, the boom in Acetylene Lighting made lowerprices possible on the material it is derived from, viz.,Calcium Carbide, a material that looks like Granitebut acts like Magic.

Today, Acetylene Light is a full third cheaper thanKerosene Light, or Gasoline Light, per Candle Power.

It is not more than half the price of Electric Light,nor three-fourt- that of City Gas.

If I can't prove these statements to your full satis-faction my name is not "Acetylene Jones."

But Acetylene is more than the safest and cheapestLight of the year 1905.

It is also the Whitest Light the nearest to naturalSunlight in health-givin- g Blue and Violet rays, andbecause of this, with its freedom from flicker, it isthe easiest of all Artificial Light on the Eyes.

It is so much like real Sunlight that it has madeplants grow 24 hours per day in dark cellars where noray of Sunlight could reach them. It made them growtwice as fast as similar plants that had only the Sun-light of day-tim- e, viz., half the time.

That wjjs proven by Cornell University in a thre-mont-

experiment made this very ycai;

Now, I've saved up for the last a point more im-

portant to you than all the others about AcetyleneLight.

It consumes only one-four- as much of the vitalOxygen from the Air of Living rooms or s,

as cither Kerosene or City Gas-Lig- consumes.That's a tremendous difference in a lifetime, mark

you three-fourth- s of a difference.Because, Oxygen is Life.And every bit of Oxygen stolen from the lungs of

Women, Children and Men, through Lighting, is aloss that can never be made good again.

A 24 Candle-Powe- r Acetylene Light costs you onlytwo-fift- of a cent per hour.

That's about $5.05 per year, if burned every nightin the year for four steady hours.

A Kerosene Lamp of equal capacity would cost youa third more, viz. : three-fifth- s of a cent per hour forKerosene alone, or $8.75 per year.

That's exclusive of broken lamp chimneys, newwicks, and the everlasting drudgery and danger ofcleaning, filling and trimming daily.

I want to prove these figures to you, Reader, if youarc a house-owne- r or storekeeper.

Tell me how many rooms you've got and I'll tell youwhat it will cost to light them with brilliant, beautiful,Sanitary, eye-savi- Acetylene.
