Ree o o p i ] it § o e ————————— TH UmALA DAILY BEE: WEl‘)Nl‘ DA A Peculiar Peovle, Laramie Bomerang, Last September a minister who stopped at a hotel in La Crosse, Wis- consin, lost his pocket book, which he had placed under his pillow at night. A few days ago the pocketbook was |t found on the floor under the bed « where he had slept, When a pocketbook lies under a hotel bed five months without beiug found, it shows how long a bed in La |t Crosse can stand without being swept under, We stopped at a La Crosse hotel one night in 1870, and the chamber- maid tried three ttmes to force an en try.

Romance in Real Life, Joseph Medill in Chica o Iribune. The heather bloomed gayly nlong the read-side; the hum of insects an the voices of birds filled the summer air. Bythe brook that rippled mer- rily down the mountain side stood a oung man, tapping impatiently with iiu cane a tiny foot that peeped out from beneath his checkeved pants. Brushed carelessly away from his white forehead were two sunnily gold- en locks, and a number five hat was perched jauatily on the back of his head. “Will she never come!” he mut- tered in low, earnest tones - ‘“‘never come to hear the sweet words of love that are waiting on my lips for her!” A fish rose to the surface of the brook, looked at the young man, and went away tired. T will seek her,” he said; but as he turned to go a pair of gleaming arms were thrown around his neck and two rosy lips puckered up for a kiss. “‘So you have come at last?"” he said looking at her fondly. ‘‘Yes,” replied the girl; ‘‘Birdie McMurtay never breaks a promise. 1 told mamma that she would have to hang out the clothes herself to-day, although it nearly broke my heart to leave her at such a time.” “‘Great heavens!” said Roderigo to ‘himself, ““T had forgotten that it was Monday.” Caught in His Own Trap. Leadville Chronicle, One of the most singular, and atthe same time distressing accidents which has been chronicled for many a day, took place in Buckeye gulch yester- day, the victim being a miner living there and named Henry Sullivan. Late yesterday afternoon he was brought to the house of Dr. Smith, who knew him personally. He wasat the time suffering from a severe cut on each side of his leg, near the ankle and a breakage of both the bones. An injury of this character, at this spot, is an extremely serious one, and all possible was done to relieve his pain. How he received the injury and how he reached the city embody an ex- ceedinglyanteresting story of fortitude. Sullivan lives, as many other miners do, entirely alone, in a httle log cabin at the head of the gulck. Among the tools and articles in his humble place of abode was a large steel trap, such as is used in catching bears and heavy game. Its shape, when opon, was oval, but when the spring was touched two sets of eruel teeth came together, closing on whatever happened to be in srange, be it man or beast. The trap shad not been wsed for a long time, and stood open in a corner of the place. Yesterday morningit oceurred to Sullivan that the trap might do some damage in that condition, and accordingly he pulled it out to the middle of the floar to close it up. In its long period of disuse the springs become rusty, and the working por- tions of it stuck together, refusing to operate. Sullivan labored ,with it for . time, and then becoming argry, jpicked (1p a hatchet and began to ham- mner at it. Still the jaws refused to shut, aed without thinking of the w©ansequexces, he thrust his foot against the lever and struck it sgain. At that inatant there was a clash, and the teeth aprang shut, pinning him just above ¢he ankle. The springs were of the most powerful make, and there was no unloosing them when they ad once caught. Sullivan, in his agony, felt kis very bones crack [ scribers of Tr WeekLy Bek, | sponse to the following age and expressage. exactly how we procure our premiums and why we can give away property of 80 much value. | the same inducements held out to sub.

By this means we hope to still further increase the large list of the Daily Bek, and having es- tablished the prepayment system we propose to maintain it,as we are doing with our Weekly edition. To those who are not familiar with our plan of distribution or the manner in which the premwums are secured by us we append, the explanation made to our Weekly subscribers, which ap- plies equally to the subscribers of the Daily Bee. Two years ago the publishers of Tux Bek devised a scheme for collecting back pay from delinquent subscribers, securing renewals and extending the circulation of this paper by a distri- bution of valuable premiums, The success of that' experiment, both in the collection of back pay and increase of prepaid subscribers was 80 encour- aging that the publishers ventured upon the same system of premium dis- tributions on a more extensive scale last year. It was demonstrated that we could better afford to distribute the money usually paid to agents, local «collectors and attorneys, directly to our patrons by offering them extra- ordinary inducements to square ac- counts and prepay for another year. By this method we have succeeded in two years in quadrupling the circula- tion of Tne WEERLY Beg and extend- ing its iofluence far beyond the boundaries of this state. During the first year cnly a portion of the arcicles distributed were pro- cured in exchange for advertising. When the marked increase in circula- tion became known to merchants and manufacturers last year they willingly placed their machinery and merchan- dise at our disposal in paying for ad- vertisiag, That enabled us to do what seemed incredible—namely, fur- nish a metropolitan weekly for two doilars a year and give our subscaibers premiums that aggregated in value $20,000. And yet 1t was a paying iu- vestment for us, and gave general satisfaction to our patrons. o il What grew out of a desire to collect back pay has developed into a new and practical idea. We have discov- ered that we can afford to make our subscribers sharers in the income of the paper from advertising. In other words we can afford to divide the ad- vertising patronage of the paper with its subscribers, inasmuch as the income from advertising grows with the in- creased circulation. Advertising space in Tue Bee that was worth one hun- dred dollars five years ago will com- madd one thousand dollars to-day This fall more goods and machinery have been offered us in exchange for advertising than we could accept in view of the limited space we devote for that purpose. What we have cou- tracted for makes the grandest and most varied list that has ever been offered for distribution by any news- pa\wr and that too without paying a dol eash we expect to mcur in connection lar in money. The only outlay in with these premiums will be for post- This explains All the premiums in our list ere worth at retail just what we represent them. In contracting with manufac- turers and wholesale dealers we ac- cept them only at wholesale rates, but that «oes not lessen their value to those who receive them, ‘I'ae Bek bas for years stood in the front rank of newspipers west of the Mssissippi, and to-day circulates more extensively than any paper west | of Chicago and north of St. Louis, A large number of eastern people wha desire to procure u far western paper, with a view of acquiving reliable in- formation about the resources and de velopment of the country west of the Missguri will doubtless avail them- selves of the opportunity now offered under the death-like grip, zad half fainted as he sank to e}fi, t’la"mr, Then nerviug himsolf for a desperate effort, he wrenched at stout iron with both hands, but without looseniag it the fraction of an inch, Half an hour of pain and tervor followed, aud a new idea ocourred tohim The trap was fastened at the base with heavy scrows bolted at either side.

No intelligent person would expect that every subscriber will receive a 650 threshing machine, a 800 piano, a 8300 harvester, or a §1560 organ, but all heve an equal chance in the disiribution Each subscriber that pays up his ar- rears and prepays another year, and every new subscriber that remits pre payment for ono year, will receive a premium worth at least One Dollar at retail. As a matter of fact, Tue Osana Weekty Ber is worth the subscription price, Two Dollars a year, to every farmer, mechanic or merchant. Without boasting, we as- sert that no weekly paper, east or west, can compare with 1t in variety and chuice selections, general news, interesting correspondence, and no other paper in - America contains as much far western news, ranging from the Pacific const to the Mississippi river. With the proof of good faith and honest dealing before them in the numerous acknowledgments we pub- lish, we can safely enter upon our en- larged undertaking ot this year, eon- fidently believing that its success will be mutually satisfactory and advan- tageous, K.

H-lw THE TRIUMPHANT TEi!RITORY. E. Ase New Mexico’s Climate, Soll, Agricul- ture, 8ociety, Ete. The greatest longth of the territory from north to south is 300 miles, and its greatest breadth from east to west, 341 miles; its area is 121,201 square miles, or 77,568,640 acres. There is great diversity of climate, owing to difterences in latitude and altitude be- tween different portions of the coun- try. In the lower plateaux the sum- mer days are warm but not debilita- ting, the nights are always cool and bracing; the climate = throughout the territory is so mild and equable, combining dryness with purity, that many persons afflicted by pulmonary and other dis- easce of a similar nature have tested it with marked benefit and frequently pormanent cure. It is estimated that there are in the Territory from 18,- 000,000 to 20,000,000 acres of arable land, or at least that much caf be brought under successful cultivation when a judicious system of irrigating canals and reservoirs shall have been constructed. At present more than three-fourths of all the waters of the Territory run to waste. The soil of the valleys, throughout New Mexico is a rich, sandy loam, light and por- ous and of surprising fertility. Corn, wheat, oato and barley grow well in all parts, the first named being a sta- ple product. The cereals do best in the northern districts and elovated plateaux; corn, vegetables and all kinds of fruit do best in the val- leys; the wvalley of the Rio Grande del Norte is admirably adapted to grape culture; and grapes do well on the lower valley of the Pecos, and in many other parts of the territory. Cabbages grow fincly, also onions and Irish potatoes are grown in the northern districts, where they yield enormously; sweet potatoes are raised in tho Mesilla valley and at Fort Stanton, on the Rio Bonito and Ruidoso, in Lincoln county; beets, radishes, turnips, parsnips, and car- rots grow well anywhere; beans, peas, aud tobacco are also grown success- fully; peaches, pears and apricots do well from Bernalillo down, and on the Pecos from Anton Chico down; mel- ons of all kinds grow to large propor- tions and of the most delicious flavor. The most valuable timber is pine, which is confined chiefly to the moun. tain districts and the high rolling lands. Pitch, yellow and Bpruce va- rieties, grow to a large size and make excellent timber; cottonwood, walnut, locust, box elder, and sugar tree are found along the streams and canyons of the mountains; also live oak of swall size, and a peculiar species of cedar, called in the territory *‘juni- per;” the nut pine, or pinion, is " also abundant and furnishes good charcoal and fire-wood. The population of New Mexico has doubled in thirty years. At the time the United States acquired the country the native popu- lation was about three-fourths Mexi- can, or Hispano-Americans, and one- fourth Pueblo and other Indians,with a very few Germans, French and Americans, To these original ele- ments have been added a considera ble number of Irish, Germans, Bel- giuns, French, Spanish and Ameri- cang, There are twelve counties. Education is in an indifferent condi- tion, According to the most re- cent reports there are about 200 church organizations of the Roman Catholics, and some twelvo or fifteen organizaticns of other denominations, e e L A Rocky Mountain Wonder, Montana Husbandman, The greav canyon of Smith TTiver, though compuratively unknown, is one of the most wonderful in all the Rocky mountains, Tois thirty wmiles in length and is accessible toa horseman for a distance of twenty miles. The mountains through which it opens its uarrow, winding way are very abrupt and impenetrable. =The path of the stream is in most places narrow and dashes to and fro between the perpendicular cliffs, and some who have tried to thread their way through had to retrace their steps and give it up a8 & bad job. Tn this dark defile are to be found the most stupeadous precipices in - all the land. Tif one of these great walls one hundred feet above the stream is an opening to what is supposed to be an immense subterranean cavern, At the entrance stands the hermit of these wilds, gray with frosts of many winters, a man of stone who has sentinel watch at the other gate of his palatial halls since the “morning stars sang together” perhaps. An expedition is to be or- ganized in the spring by Col. Kent to explore the new wonder, OUR BEST PREMIUNS, The tollowing isa description of the most valuable premiums that are to be alloted to the patrons of Tur Bre on March 4: THE CHAS which is the most valuble among our premiums, 18 from the Crmase Prano Cosmrany, of Richmond, Indiana, ' company has the reputation of making ({n' most durable instruments made in Ameriea, and for tone and tune their Pianos are second to none. Possessing fine water power and a fac tory built with special reforence to the ANO, manufacture of the best instrument at the ast possible cost, this company dvantages enjoyed by no custern y. They have near at und in large quantities the finest timber in the world, and have an opportunity to make the first selection, and save the high freights which must be paid by castern manufacturers, and conse- quently can furnish a better piano for tho money than any other makers, The College of Music at Cincinnati, one of the largest institutions of the kind in this country, after trying thoe pianos of all the best makes discarded all others and are using only the Cuasg, and decided that 10 posseescd all the qualities necessary to with stand the hardships of a zenuine mus- ical warfare. This speaks volumes in favor of these excellent instruments, the product of western enterprise and skill. All disinterested experts ad- mit that these pianos aro made hetter than those from any other factory aid that they are the most servieable Tho piano we offer is their tyle soeven and for elegance of ippearance, beauty of tone and soidity of structure cannot be ex- celled. Parties who are not familiar with this make of pianes would do well to write to the factory for an il- lustrated catalogue. The other piano on our list is the same style and quality as the one we gave last year, and will be avpreciated by the party fortunate enough to re- ceive it, THE THRESHING MACHINES, The first one on the list is from Pitts & Son's celebrated factory, of Chicago, Ill, and has a reputation for yood work over tho whole country The Gold Medal Thresher is from the well known firm of Robinson & Co, Richrnond Ind. The Robinson works were established in 2, and aro one o' the oldest thresh- ing machine builders in the country. The machines of this firm are in use in every state from Maine to Oregon. Every farmer and dealer admits their superiority, Our eontract with the Robinson machine works is for a com- plete thresher ready to attach either horse or steam power, both of which they manufacture, and under our con- tract they will furnish the party who receives this machne, either power at 50.00 less than their regular price, This discount to be given in mh\itiuu to any cash or other discounts offered by the firm. THE SELF-BINDING HARVESTER. The reputation of the Marsh har- vesters is so well established that no special description of them is deemed necessary, We will only state that this is their latest improvement. This machine was on exhibition at the Ne- braska state fair last September, and was admired by every one, and the workings of it declared superior to that of any other harvester made. THE LEWIS HEADER. This machine stands at the head of the header family and has met with most surprising success. The factory at Hastings, Nebraska is kept busy the year round, and the past year has not been able to muke en()ugfl to fill all orders. These headers do more work with less power than any other style of reaper, and with less loss of grain than by any other mode of har- vesting. THE AMERICAN GRINDING MILLS which we offer as premiums are guar- anteed to be first-ciass in evory re- spect, simple in construction, durable and easily managed. These mills arc intended for grinding feed and are valuable to every farmer; they can be wjusted so as to grind meal fine enough for table use. The fortunate farmer who receives one of these mille il certainly be well pleased, The wills are complete with pulleys, and can be attached to any power.” They mauufactured by the American irinding Mill Company, Chicago, 111- inois. These are the same style of Mills we gave as premiums last year, and were appreciated more than any other remiums of equal value, SINGER SEWING MACHINE: Tho Sewing Machine which we give ug premiums are all new and first- class, manufactured by the Singer Munufacturing company of New York, who have a reputation and do business in every city and villago in the Umted States and Europe. Every- body knows the valueand,usefulness of these machines, and know that they are worth just what we list them heir immense sales show how , wel! thesoBewing Machines are appreciated, NUWE SCALE, 18 one of their best make and has ca- pacity to weigh a wagon with its heaviest load, and will be a promium that any one will appreciate. THE CALDWELL WAGON, which is offered as a premium, is the e style as the one wo gave last year and which was considered one of the finest farm wagons ever made, These wagons are made by the Kausas Manufacturing Company, of Leaven- worth, Kas., a western flrm with truly western enterprise. They are making o flrst-class wagon and will soon be supplying the entire trade of the west, (] THE CHAMPIOM CORN PLANTER is the old reliable rotary drop, made by Beedle & Kelly, of Troy, Ohio, Theso goods are as staple as white sugar and are indispensable on every well regelated farm, We are safe in recommending 1t as the best corn planter made. KING COCKLE MILLS, These mills are new and simple, separating cockle chaff and all se: from the wheat, is also used as a seed separator. This mill works with a cer- tainty and rapiditynot attained by any grain manipulating device heretofore placed on the market. It furnishes ite own metive power and needs no last or agitation. Every farmer, grain dealer and miller should have one. The one on exhibition at the last Nebraska state fair was acknowl- E!n BRUA Y edged by every one as a “'‘great inven. ion.
