Persons wishing hardware can pur-
chase Of l.. Corson at Chloride much
cheaper than at any other place in
New Mexico. This is not a paid item
hut it IS printed for the benefit of the
RANGE readers.
MI. and Mrs. F. H.. Kalloch, son-in-
law and daughter of l.. Corson, are
paying him a short visit, having ar
rived at Chloride, Monday evening.
They are residents of Peabody, Kan
sas, where Mr. Kalloch is engaged in
the banking business.
The committee of safety organized
in Chloride last January should be res
directed and reconstructed. The town
evidently needs more protection from
its W citizens than from visiting cow
boys and desperadoes. The most of the
officers of the old committee were alb
sent from town last Wednesday night,
and thus it proved useless ON the first
occasion when needed.
DR.. Haskell was stung by a centipede
last week, the wound being received on
the under side of the knee. The worm
had ensconsed itself in the doctors un-
Departments, and when he was in the
act of dressing, the insect punctured
the flesh in four places with its poison
Gus claws. External and internal ap-
pllcations of ammonia removed all bad
effects of the poison and no sickness
was experienced.
The work of surveying the Buffom
nine for a patent was completed last
week, and work. has been resumed in
the shaft. The opening is o two
hundred and twenty-seven feet deep
and Is nicely timbered from top to bot
tom. The vein shows an ore streak OF
solid metal that runs 1925 in silver and
$50 in copper. The new work consists
of drifts which will be run north and
south at the bottom of the shaft. More
men will be employed than formerly.
Frank Saucier went east to Mexico
Missouri, on Saturday-night's train. He
took his bull teams from the range t.
Grant county a few months ago, ano
struck d forty dollar perday job of sup
plying logs to a saw-mill, which he held
until the range burning over deprived
the stock of feed. He made som
money which it is very likely that HI
will try and persuade a partner to share
with him. Johnny Saucer remain,
with the teams III Grant county.
, A mob of hoodlums of the form, sizt
and years of men, but without the brair
f OF an oyster or the decency of a burro
made the darkness of Wednesday nigh
and Thursday morning hideous b,
, means of giant powder explosions tina
they set off right in the heart of tn,
town, the conclusions being so terrif,
that a large amount of glass was broker
r in the windows of stores and dwelling,
and other property destroyed. TIL
weak nerves of delicate ladies and chill
| dren were totally unstrung by the thun
dering noises the suffering caused
: in this way being of a serious nature
in several instances. 1t is past compre
hending how persons with the reason
and Judgment that the years should b
expected to bring to intelligent mel
could enter into the business of de
stroying property and inflictlng tortur
upon ladies and children and think i
sport. The proceeding would hav
been unexpected among a crowd o
; mischievous boys. AS the acts of mel
they were astonishing. Had the nigh
been less dark and the scoundrels les
watchful somebody would have beef
hurt for some citizens of exhausted pa
tience hunted with guns and murderou
intentions for them. There is much re
greet expressed that the hunters had s.
poor luck. One of those chaps woul'
!, have been rellshed for breakfast.
