e\c., etc.. are requested to send in their

Communications in, the form of adver-
tisements will be charged for.
[All communications must be ad-
dresed to the Editor. El Paso Daily
Times El Paso, Texas.]
The last number of the Paso del
Norte Progrefcista, which with the
Times constitutes th3 legitimate
press of this neighborhood, contains
Borne interesting local articles.
TnE l>as Vegas Gazette gives it
as its deliberate opinion that any
man who will advise people to go
into the-chicken-raising business in
this country, ought to be run out of
town.
Any number of people were look-
ing for Marv Churchill on Sunday
last, both on this side of the river
and in Paso del Norte. If she was
in either place she kept herself very
close.
When El Paso gets able "to afford
a general system of lighting the
city, it will be advisable to select
the electric light rather than gas.
The first cost is much less, and the
light is infinitely superior.
You must always go away from
home to hear the news. Many of
our exchanges state that Slade and
Mitchell will fight in the middle of
the bed of the river, which is at
^present very low or almost dry.
A day or two ago Sister Angela
"mysteriouslyHisappeared" from a
St. Louis convent. If anybody has
seen a stray nun lying around loose
either here or across the river, he
will confer a favor by notifying her
St. Louis friends.
The Galveston News has an
editorial on the clangor of church
bells in large towns and cities,
which clangor it denominates as a
-nuisance. The News man ought to
go to Paso del Norte and stay a day
or^two. lie 4voftld then become
reconciled to Galveston.
El Paso was the first city that
invited Slade and Mitchell to corm*
down here. As soon as it stepped
forward and agitated>the matter, a
number of other places fell into line
and emulated her example—such
as Fort Worth, Silver City and-
others.
The papers of the State, particu-
larly in those counties where the
stock interest is a large and im-
portant one, are publishing the
' spab law." It is, from all accounts,
a very good law, and one well cal-
culated to stamp out and prevent
that dread of all sheep-owners—the
scab,
The San Antonio Light reluc-
tantly confesses that there is no
statute in Texas against prize-
fighting, but calls on" Governor
Ireland to transcend his authority
and arrest Slade and Mitchell any-
how, just for luck. Governor Ire-
-land is too good a lawyer to lay
himself open to a suit for heavy
damages on account of illegal im-
prisonment.
The Santa Fe New Mexican-Re-
view lias the following in regard to
Mary Churchill "A Professor
Caldwell, of Topeka, has disap-
_peared in company with a strange
woman, believed to be Mary
Churchill, of St. Louis. They were
last seen on an Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe train bound southward,
'with tickets for Chihuahua." The
Review is mistaken. The eloping
couple did not go over the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe*_ but over the
Texas & Pacific Railroad. They
were both seen at Sierra Blanca-by
people who had known them be-
fore.
- "IVAClSpfcaving no-earthly chance
to get Slade and Mitchell to come
there, is getting very indignant
anent those cities that have some
ehance. A clear case of the grapes
being sour. The Examiner and
Patron of that burg says: "It is the
^newest phase of rivalry that has
ever been seen in Texas and abou
the most reprehensible. All other
l". sport?, where men are the princi-
such as rowing, pedestrian
®t etc., have something to com—
sod them. Priase# fighting is ab-
3*voId of a single redeem-
feature. Fort WettH and El

Peming, N. M., Sept. 8.—The
case in which Ed. Riley was charg-
ed with shooting Mark Devine,
with intent to commit murder some
weeks —ago, came before Judge
Ritea to-day. Mr. W. L. Chambers
appeared for the prosecution,
and Messrs. Colby & Williams for
the defense. After hearing the
witnesses for the prosecution, which
showed clearly that" the prosecu-
tion could not be sustained by lack
of evidence to prove that the de-
fendant was the party who fired
the shots, Riley was at once dis-
charged.
Charlie Betteiton went to Lords-
burg yesterday, and will return to-
morrow.
Cons-table J. B. Hodgdon returned
this morning from a two weeks'
trip to Texas and the Indian Na-
tion, where he went in pursuit of a
fugitive from justice. lie did not
catch his man.
The fall of a chandelier at the
Metropolitan last night resulted,
fortunately, in nothing worse than
broken lamps and a floor badly
stained with kerosene.
Considerable dissatisfaction is
felt about the release of Cuter,
mentioned in inv letter of yester-
day, who was charged with mur-
der. Those who claim to know
say that he is undoubtedly the
guilty part\'.
Mr. George Williams, of the firm
of McNamara & Williams, jewelers,
starts up to Lake Valley, Hilisboro
and Kingston this evening on a
business trip, expecting to be gone
several da\Ts.
The excitement over the discov-
eries of mineral reported yesterday
as being at the southerly termina-
tion oflthe Black Range, promises
to wind up with a veritable boom.
The vein is said to be twelve feet
wide. Your correspondent expects
to visit it in a few days and will
then report more fully.
Master Lee Hodgdon, who has
been the circulator of the Times at
Deming for the past two months,
goes to Santa Fe on Monday morn-
ing to attend school. This leaves
vacant a fine position for an ener-
getic boy, who is thoroughly rested
and wishes to commence the jour-
ney to earthly pomp, power and
fame by this well-known and only
safe route. Apply early at McNa-
mara's store, or Aaron Frost's
office.

The Tucson Citizen ha3 a corres-
pondent in El Paso who is either a
knave or a fool. He wires to that
paper as follows, on the 8th of Sep-
tember :
"Nothing can be ascertained here
regarding the tieaty other than the
dispatches published in the El Paso
Times, which are not credited. No
one here places any reliance in them
whatever.
"[The above dispatch is in answer
to one sent by the Citizen, asking
for information as to the alleged
proposition of the Chiricahvas to
the Mexican authorities suing for
peace and a grant of twenty leagues
of land.]"
The miserable nincompoop who
sent the above to the Citizen—who-
ever he may be—does not know
that the Times got its news direct
from the Mexican commanders near
Cases Grandes, 8nd that its advices
have since been fully confirmed.
All kinds of crimes and misde-
meanors are reported from the
Northern and Eastern States, but
here in El Paso and adjoining
counties we are beginning to be
singularly free from them.
