Lo! and behold' At 5-30 Mrs. Louis Hobman, wife of a guard at the
Santa Fe bridge, called at my house and stated that she f onnd the barrel ot
chinaware (contents intact) on the road from Deming about 30 miles out
from El Paso
As the contents of this barrel are valued in excess of $250, it goes
without saying that I am a firm believer in the honesty of tbe public in
general, also that ywor paper at an advertising raedism cannot be surpassed.
