Mr. II. M. Herrin, of Lako Valley.
Miss Nora was only 18 years of age,

calls from among us those in the

who are on the brink of the "sweet

Last Sunday night a sociable was
given at the Hotel Union in honor
of St. Ana's day, a day held in mem
ory dear from the traditions of an
antiquated Spanish Saint, and who,
by the way, is a better man than
8t. Patrick. The biography of this
distinguished personage, we are un
able to publish in full, but suffice it
to say the party was well attended,
while Ice-cream, cake and other
delicacies of the season helped to fill
out the vacuum between vocal and
musical entertainments. Altogether,
the afl'uir wis a reherchc one, and all
went homo feclijjg glad they were
there, - v
Old memories were awakened yes
terday by the sight of dipt. Fechet
and his troop. Their inspection and
drill seemed so familiar, that a feel
ing like wishing to be one of them
stole over us. The well disciplined
appearance of the troop reflects cred
it on their gallant commander, and
although not decked out in phimes
and shining accoutrements, every
thing looked uniformtilly neat and
martial to the eye- The stock is in
excellent condition, and no fear
need bo entertained, but that they
would be able to give Geronimo, or
any other red marauder, a good tight
chase if found within reach.
The soldiers and "'boys'' made St.
Anna their patroness for the occas
ion, and to judge by the lusty sounds
emanating from . their well wet
throats, they were enjoying them
selves. The songs they sang were
not perhaps strictly in accordance
with the intents of those who insti-
tined the h
fident that the sound came from men
who were "at peace with all the
world." Although the music was
not such that Handel or Hayden
would have admired, yet it gave
proof that Hillsboro, assisted by the
"boys in blue," could still raise
enough energy to "make the welkin
ring." All hail to St. Anna! If she
will awake the slumbering spirit of
pleasure, Hillsboro greets her.
'Spike" was there.
TERRITORIAL.-
Hillsboro is rapidly becoming one
of the best towns in southern New
Mexico. Press.
Socorro has two citizens who have
each a revenue of over $1 ,000 a day.
So says the Interpreter.
People who buy town property in
Hillsboro are sure to double their

The connection between the shaft
and the tunnel on the 100-foot level
in the Homestake mine 1 was made
this week. This enables com
pany to put on tenor mop- men if
they only had a mill ui .Hlkk'ut
capacity to led u?r I u which
could be taken out. This tunnel
was driven, not because it was need
ed to take ore out, but because a
supply of good air was an urgent 'ne
cessity. Interpreter.
An exchange says that all bulls
are treacherous and dangerous, and
should be handled with care. Per
haps this is one reason why some of
our stockmen keep w few bulls on
their ranges. Fine bulls have never
been so cheap as they are this season.
Stockmen have opportunities now
by the purchase of a sufficient num
ber of bulls for their herds, at the
present low prices, for the acquire
ment of a larger percentage of gain
in the future of their business than
can como from any other source of
good management Bullion.
Lone Star: Lightning struck in
Santa Fe Saturday and Luis Urisate
was killed" instantly. There were
no murks or bruises upon his body,
the bolt simply cut out and consum
ed the crown of his hat. Ho was on
top of the adobe wall and Bonigno
Bclardo -was on a scaffold passing
tho adobes up to him. Bclardo was
injured internally and has been deaf
and dumb since he was struck and
will probably die. The third man
Fpifanio Maes, was on the ground
and received the shock in his right
hip whence it passed down bis leg
a Hd off at his great toe, leaving an
aperture like a bullet hole. H.0 was
paralyzed and recovery is doubtful.
Las Vegas Optic. How often have
we noticed it. When a marriage oc
curs in one's family he Hues to see
a notice of it in the local paper.
When his folks are visiting or visit
ed, he expects to see it in the paper.
But when, by sending to some ens
tern city he can get printing done a
little cheaper, ho frequently over
looks the fact that his paper is em

money weekly, part of which is pret
ty sure to bo spent at. his place of
business, paying taxes to support
the town, keeping the country around
informed as to home news, induding
trade to come to town, etc., where
a press run by a twenty-live cent boy
gets out bills, note heads, etc., on
inferior work for only a few pennies
less then ho would have had to pay
for a good job done at home. We
never feel sorry for a man when we
see his look of chagrin as he discov
ers that the eastern printer has spell
ed his name wrong. '
The editor of the Interpreter was
informed on Wednesday last, in the
presence of witnesses, by a gentleman
who said he knew, that unless his
"little black sheet let'up on the for
eigners that he (the editor) would
get a good whipping." We are not
surprised at such threats. We ex
pected them. Indeed, notice was
