A
MCNEAL PISTER.
Wcdiliiiff last Evening- of P. M.
McNea
and Mrs. Anua E. DicU'V.
Preston B. McNeal, chief train
patcher of the G. H. at this point,
dis
an
Mrs. Anna E. Dieter were united
i
marriage last evening at the bride
residence on the hill, by liev. Henry
W. Moore, of 'he Kresby terian church
As the wedding was private, only
very few ol the immediate f needs o
the bride aad groom were present
The bridesmaid was Miss Bessie Ed
wards, and the groomsman was Ernes
Harms, both of this city, and at the
conclusion of the impressive ceremony
the happy couple were wished a life
long enough for them to celebrate
their golden wedding anniversary,
They were married in tne second par
lor under a large spray of mistletoe,
and the parlors were handsomely de
corated with rare palms and ferns and
potted plarts, while a large and typi
cally comfortable grate hre shed its
pleasant warmth through the apart
ments. The bride was elegantly
attired in a robe of gray faille francais,
with oearl passamenteries, and
diamonds. 1 he groom was dressed in
fine black broadcloth. Miss Edwards
was robed in white satin with moire
antique silk ribbo?s, and was very
pretty.
Shortly after the congratulations, an
elegant wedding dinner was served in
the dining room. lhe table was
covered with the finest table linen and
silver ware, and trimmed with growing
and cut flowers. Strings of smilax ran
from the chandelier to the fourcorners
of the table, which made the surround
ings savor of a bower. In the center
of the table stood the wedding cake
three stories high, and decorated with
smilax. In fact all the lloral decora-
tionsshowed the greatest taste in de
sign and selection. It was a nine
course dinaer, served in the best style,
and included oyster cocktail, vermicel
li soup, lobster newburg, filet de boeuf
with .mushrooms and potato balls,
salted almonds, roast turkey with cur
rant jelly, French peas, cauliflower,
shoe string potatoes, tomatos stuffed
with celery salad, ice cream, fruit
cakes, coffee, fruits, confectionery,
wines. It required two hours to do
justice to such an elegant repast, and
it ended with the cutting of the big
wedding cake, and the distribution of
its toothsome favors.
After dinner, there was a pleasant
social in the parlors whfre the beau
tiful wedding presents were admired,
and Mr. Harms favored his friends
with several well rendered piano solos.
The presents were choice and selected
with the best of judgmant. Among
them were an elegant cut glass dish,
from C. S. Marks and wife, Mr. Marks
being the groom's associate at the
telegraphic key and in thedispatcher's
office at the Southern Pacific depot.
And then, the most striking of the
gifts was a chaste and costly stand
(amp from Richards', the gift of H. C.
Borcherding, wrecking boss of the G.
H.: C. E. Waterhouse, dispatcher;
Charles Cole, dispatcher: A S. Bishop,
baggage master; J. K. Merriman,
conductor of the Limited: Sam Carter,
engineer of the Limited; II. W. Conner
ly, dispatcher; Arthur Borcherding,
call man. The present was a gold
plated onyx stand with a double globe
of line porcelain hand painted, for both
oil and gas, the gas arrangement being j
Mr. liichards' own contrivance. The
present was much admired then, .and is
today by congratulating friends. As
Mr. and Mrs. McNeal were advised to
he careful and keep the enstly gift out
of Harms' way, Mr. Harms, the
groomsman, threatened to faint away,
but was finally persuaded not to do so.
There were numerous congratulatory
telegrams received by Mr. and Mrs.
McNeal. and the telephone too was
constantly ringing with best wishes
and "may you both live Ion? and
prosper."
The bride nas long been known in
this city for her charitable works and
hospitable, generous heart, and her
friends are altogether too many to at
tempt to count without one has plenty
of time to do so. The groom is one of
the best known and esteemed men in
the operating department of the
Atlantic system of the Southern Paci
fic company, and as chief train
dispatcher, stands in the direct line of
deserved promotion. Mr. and Mrs.
McNeal are being congratulated
personally today by a host of friends.
The liEUALD otlice acknowieges tne
receipt of a large plate of wedding
cake and delicacies from last evening's
wedding dinner.

Commissioner's Court.
The countv commissioners decided
ast evening to give the contract lor
upplying the county with coal to the
El Paso Fuel company at 86. lo per
ton.
The Babbit claim against isleta
was referred to the county judge.
Mr. Storm's bill for $20 for fees
n
habeas corpus cases was allow
ed.
The board decided to award the con
tract for stationery supplies to George
D. Barnard & Co. of St. Louis, although
there were two El Paso firms ready to
take the contract and do the work.
The. St. Louis bid was $414 against
$41ti by the Times company of this city
and $332 70 by the Hull Printing com
pany. But it seems that tne can was
for lithograph work, and the El Paso
firms thought it was for straight print
ing. The Times says today:
"Men who, in private life, were con
tent to pay their own money for cheap
home printing are not satisfied with
anything short of metropolitan litho
graph work with pictures on it, as soon
as they get into office and the tax
payers have to buy the stationery. The
vote of the home laboring man is good
enough to boost them into office, but
the work he is justly -entitled to is sent
away to give employment to men in
other cities to build industries in St.
Louis which do not pay a dollar taxes
in El Pao county.''
The Times calls for home printers to
stop bidding on any more El Paso
county work: then to pool on the coun
ty advertising, and let one paper do it,
as the county commissioners cannot
send their county advertising to St.
Louis.
Commissioner Courchesne says that
the Times got things wrong: that it was
the Times that bid $416 and was for
straight printing, while the St. Louis
farm bid $414 for lithographic works
All things considered the county saves
about $43 by giving the contract to the
St. Louis house. Mr. Courchesne
would like to know, now that the
Times has taken such a high stand in
the line of criticism, why it did not
criticise the purchase six years ago, of
that t0 acres of land by the county from
the nephew of Juan Armendariz. a pur
chase that has proven anything but
profitable to the county.
The bill of George Parker ol 4J.oo
for recording bonds was disallowed.
The bill of $400 from Zenos B. Clardy
for legal services to the Ysleta corpo
ration was allowed with $200 chopped
off and in general fund scrip at that
from the Ysleta fund.
The county judge and Messrs. Cour
chesne and Kobinson were appointed a
committee to fix the salaries of county
officers for the next two years.
Messrs. Courchesne and Smith were
appointed a committee- to secure a
house in the city for use as a county
hospital, with the idea of abandoning
the poor farm.
The bill of T. S. Kerr for $6.o0 was
allowed.
Removing; the Poor Farm.
County Judge Harper called the at
tention of the countv commissioners
this morning to the amount of medical
attendance at the poor house, and the
system generally on which El Paso
county carried on its pauper econo
mics.
This brought out Mr. Courchesne,
who declared it was all a mistake
to have a poor farm for the county.
What was really needed was a hospi
tal, and that might be obtained by
securing so much of old Fort Bliss as
might be necessary. There must have
been some peculiar reason for locating
a poor farm at such a distance from
town. The county physician sometimes
did not visit it for two months, there
was not an acre of the place really
suitable for tillage, and if it was, there
was not a pauper in the poor
house fit to cultivate the land. Mr.
Courchesne was for throwing up the
poor farm and starting a hospital
enterprise in town.
Mr. Robinson was his com pad ro as to
the advantage to be gained by the
suggested change, and said there was
no doubt but that the poor farm was
located in that out of the way place in
consequence of a deal of some kind.
But he doubted if the county was able
to make the desired change just now,
and savored waiting until times were a
little easier. The majority in the
board were evidently of the opini-m
that it would be better to secure hospi
tal accommodations in town
J. J. Connors received a congratulato
ry telegram today form the chief of the
fire department at Beiiiinont, Texas,
almost on theLousiana line, on his be
ing elected to the position of chief of
the El Paso fire department.

THE IRRIGATION CONGRESS-
A Goodly Gathering at Phoenix.
Twenty-seven States Represented.
A thousand people representing the
irrigation interests of twenty-seven
states are ia Phoenix, Arizona, holding
the fifth session of the irrigation con
gress. The committee on credentials report
delegates present from the states and
territories of Arizona, California, Con
necticut. Idaho, Illinois. Iowa, Kansas,
Minnesota, Montana, Michigan, Neb
raska, New York, New Mexico, North
Dakota, Nevada, Rhode Island, Texas,
Utah, Washington, Wyoming. Wis
consin, and the District of Columbia
The permanent organization resulted
in the selection of C. B. Booth, of Cali
fornia, as president: Govercore lect
Frank H. Griggs, of North Dakota,
vice-president: and James H. McClin
tock, of Arizona, A. L. Kellogs, of
Co'orid), and L. S. Howlc t of Wash
ington, secretaries.
After several routine reports, Judge
Emory, of the land office, read a paper
in support of his contention that states
should be owners of arid lands as they
are now in control of the water with
out which such lands are valueless.
A committee on resolutions was ap
pointed and one of the first documents
presented was a set of resolutions stated
to be the unanimous voice of California
delegation in respect to the Wright
act. They recite that the constitution
ality of the Wrightact has been finally
established by the decision of the
supreme court and where the provisions
of the act have been follow e 1 and equitj
aoiy and honestly administered nas
accomplished the result hoped for.
However, in practical operation, irreg
ularities entailing complications and
hardships have arisen which impaired
the beneficial results. It suggests these
may be avoided by the creation of a
state board of control to supervise the
organization and operations of irriga
tion districts. It further suggests that
states delegate the whole subject to a
state commission for a sufficient
length of time to enable them to give
the matter the most thorough investi
gation. It further recommends a constitu
tional amendment under which all
voting in irrigating districts be limit
ed to actual land holders and assess
ment be made and collected by county
assessors and tax collectors and the
proceeds of bond sales be deposited in
the state treasury until disbursed by
the district.
O'Neill of Arizona moved a commit
tee of seven on organization, that the
body might take upon itself more than
an existence of three or four days in
the year, be appointed. As such com
mittee, Chairman Moses of the nation
al executive committee appointed C.
M. Heiutz, W. D. O'Neill, J. D. Fort,
G. V. Watson, I. G- Brainard and C.
G. Hudson.
To Eseape City Taxation.
In an obscure corner of an obscure
evening patent medicine sheet appears
the following advertisement:
Notice is hereby given that I intend
to apply for the passage by the 23tb
legislature of the state of Texas of a
special law to amend section two of an
act of the 21st legislature of the state
of Texas, entitled "An act to grant a
new charter to the city of E! Paso,"
approved March 2. ISS'J, for the purpose
of changing and correcting the limits
and boundaiics of the city of El Paso
and defining and fixing its territorial
jurisdiction.
Washington B. Merchant.
There is said to be a large gen'lraan ob
color in this particular cord of w: o 1, and
his whisper as it is wafted around tne
corner of the same is this. The Cot
tonwood and Bissett additions are at
present within the city limits and
subject to city tax levys. Novr, if by a
legislative enactment these two tracts
could be set without the city limits the
amount of money saved would be
considerable, and times, you know, are
very dull.
The above is. however, one side of the
story. Judge Merchant says the move
is not to get the two additions out of
the city limits, but to definitely locate
the northern boundaries of the city.
These boundaries he says are altogeth
er ton loose and irdclinito, as study of
the city charter will show. The evil
is such as demands correction, and
legislative enactment will uo it.

Governor Thornton, of New Mexico,
tells a Denver reporter: "The con
struction of two railroads, which are
now under consideration, that from El
Paso to the neighborhood of White
-aks, and that from Koswell, on the
Pecos, to Amarillo, Texas, will be of
the greatest importance to the terri
tory. The former will tap an exceed
ingly rich mineral country and will
open some of the finest coal deposits in
the world. New Mexico has some very
tine coal measures, the veins being
very large and the coal of excellent
quality. The mining interests in the
White Oaks district are already very
large, and with the advent of the rail
road from El Paso, they will be very
largely increased: as there is a vast
quantity of ore in properties as yet un
developed, which can not be shipped
yet on account of the heavy transporta
tion charges. The opening of the
road will eventually lead to the erec
tion of smelters in the coal district,
which is only a comparatively short
distance from the mines. Mr. Eddy,
the promoter of this enterprise, is now
in Europe, and I am informed that he
has succeeded in making arrangements
for the completion of the road."
