was bound over at Fort Smith on a charge OF
numbering the crazy man, Byers. IL Ia
claimed Downing followed his victim and
dealt him two heavy blows on the head, from
the effects OF which the doctors say he died
1t Is said by some OF the court house at
/ taehes that the extreme punishments heted
out recently was owing TO the fact that the
accused had made light of the short sentences

more severe punishments for other reAsons

Just why there should be so much diserlmlna-

Wheeled Palaces.

The Denver & Rio Grande railroad has
placed two OF Pullman's latest and most
improved broad gauge sleeping and buffet
cars on the run between Denver and
Trinidad, and at Cucharas station close
connection is made with a newly fur
nished chair car that reaches Santa Fe
over the Santa Fe Southern road. These
broad gauge sleepers are veritable palaces
on wheels, and are named "Pinon" and
"Poncha." The cars are fifty-six feet in
length. The most modern improvement
perhaps, is in that of furnishing hot and
cold water to the interior of the car
Underneath the car in hugh tanks the
water is stored. 1t is forced into the cal
by hydraulic pressure. The cold water
passes through a coil or pipe packed in
ice. The temperature of the water is
raised by means ofsteam from the engine.
The decorations and arrangements OF
the cars make the interiors look like q
snuggery from fairy land. The woodwork
is a Combination OF mahogany, red wood
and maple. The seats in the body Of the
cars are upholstered with blue plush, and
taken in conjunction with the many mir
rors, the brilliant lights and handsome
hangings the whole forms beautiful pic
ture.
The smoking rooms, which are open
ones, are luxuriously furnished in seal
brown plush, and to sink into one of the
comfortable settees is enough to make a
man yearn for competency and plenty
of time to travel. The smoking rooms are
covered with antique Daghistan rugs.
The toilet rooms are fitted up with mot
tied granite and are furnished with every
convenience. The porter can be sum-
moned from any part Of the cars by the
electric call system. The portieres and
hangings are Of pale blue plush. The cars
are certainly the handsomest that ever
came out into the west, and the patrons
of the Denver & Rio Grande and Santa
Fe Southern have cause for congratula-
tiOns

IT'S ALL RIGHT.
StOckmen and Sheep Raisers Jubilant-
A Splendid Farming Season.

The unprecedented SHOWS OF the past
winter are having telling effect on the
grass crop for the coming
spring and summer. Already the noun
tains and valleys are assuming Il beautiful
tinge Of green and the cattle are becoming
quite energetic in the pursuit OF nourish-
ment. Cattlemen are considerably en-
couraged over the outlook for plenty Of
grass and better prices for their cattle, and
sheep raisers are jubilant. They are now
in the midst of the lambing season and
say the weather is such that not per
cent of the kids will be lost
In south Santa Fe county the grass al
ready shows luxuriant growth, and the
farmers also look forward with great con-
iidence to the harvest. Many crops will
be made this year where there is no water
for irrigation. Even last seasons alfalfa,
seeded when only the rains can nurture
it, is coming out in such a manner as
gives assurance that, as far as concerns
alfalfa at any rate, splendid crops may be
obtained on the valley lands and plateaus
without irrigation. Deep blowing is the
secret of this success, Right here at
home may be seen two striking illustra-
tions OF ths-on the Van Arsdell and
Fisher ranches just south OF town. AL
together the outlook could scarcely be
better for those who jirk their living out
Of the earth.

Merchants and others are hereby re-

printing now going out Of town could
come to the New MEXICAN Office. There
is no better excuse for sending out Of
town for printing than there is for sending
away for groceries or clothing. Our mer-
chants should consider these things. The
New MEXICAN is acknowledged the lead
ing paper OF this section. The patronage
OF our people will enable us to keep it so.
Old papers, clean and whole, for car

HOW HE BUILDS THEM.
Farmer Toner Explains His Method OF
Constructing Storage Reservoirs.

Mr.. Charles Toner, stalwart farmer
from Iowa who has settled near Gallup,
yesterday made final proof at the land
Office on his desert land entry. He was
asked by New MEXICAN man how he
had gone about solving the water
problem. He said there were no springs
or running stream on his place, but that
timber and brush and rock were plentiful
and these he had used to construct water
storage reservoirs by daming the numer-
GUS canons that lead from the foot hills to
the valley. He explained that he made
a sytem of small cribs, fitting the logs
together like one would for log cabin.
These cribs be filled with rock, earth and
brush and thus secured excellent results,
the reservoirs catching the food waters
from the mountains and holding them till
needed for irrigating his crops. Mr..
