Armijo block, from San Francisco street.
Water street, has been treated to ney
coat of plaster.
In order to make room for the ney
brick block erected by Mr.. Catron

An English walnut tree in the Bishop
garden at Santa Fe, yields from $25 tt
$50 a year in nuts. This is pointer a
to what can be done in that line of pro
duction. -Cerrillos Rustler.
The garbage cart man ought to be looke(
after by somebody. He has about fillet
up the arroyos northwest of the gas hous'
and west Of the narrow gauge depot, ant
has lately been seen dumping refuse mat
ter on the river bank at the foot of Shelb,
street.
The streets surrounding the Lorettt
academy and leading to the Christian
Brothers college are in wretched condi
tan. If the penitentiary board woulc
give the convicts little needed exercise
thereon, it would be appreciated by the
people thereabouts.
Mr.. F. P. Crichton, superintendent Of
construction at the Indian school, has
had much to do with city sewerage in his
time, and he thinks Santa Fe could be
provided with frst-class system Of sew
erage at a comparatively small cost. The
lay OF the land is just right.
A few dollars planted in Santa Fe real
estate will yield big returns in the next
year or two. In several instances subur-
ban property has more than doubled in
value in the past eight months. There
now appears to be general confidence
in Santa Fe's early advancement, par
ticularly since it is assured that the water
service Is to be improved.
In the district court yesterday Fran
cisco A. Serns, arrested as Francisco
Sena and charged with violation OF the
election laws in Rio Arriba county, was
discharged. To-day the case OF Ambro-
sio Ortiz, who sues the Narrow Gauge
railroad company for 1000 damage done
his residence by the building Of the road
on Rosario street, is on taial.
The first question asked by real estate
men and capitalists, who want to invest
in real estate in Santa Fe, is Is your
town Incorporated? Upon being told that
Santa Fe is not incorporated, capitalists
and real estate investors leave town very
generally without investing. Before there
can be any boom in real estate here, and
before property can appreciate very much
in value, this town must be incorporated.
This is not question of politics this is a
pure question of business.
p. Oswald & Co. is the name Of a new
firm just opened for business OH
lower Frisco street, near Mr.. Lopez store.
Mr.. Oswald comes from Phoenix, A. T.
1t is quite too hot for comfort down there,
and because OF the climatic advantages
here and the very excellent prospects of
steady growth, he pitches his tent in Santa
Fe. Mr.. Oswald's advertisement will be
found elsewhere in these columns.
J. w. Schofeld's advertisement as gen.
eral agent for the Washington Life In
company appears elsewhere in
this issue. Mr.. Schofield is an excellent
young business man, thoroughly known
to the people of Santa Fe and northern
and central New Mexico, and he has as
sociated himself with company that
bears most creditable record. The New
MEXICAN wishes the young man every
success in his new field of labor.

", near the Arizona line, bringing huge
sheet of native copper, which he took out
If mine he went to inspect. The sample

Arizona people are scared out Of their
wits by the behavior of the hostile
Apaches. Gen. Miles is down there Civ
ng personal attention to the movements

A friend OF the New MEXICAN writing
rom San Antonio, Texas, says Of Mr. Jay
T. Adams, the Denver real estate man
Who has been quietly investing in Santa
70 real estate of late: "Mr. Adams has
leaned up $4,000 in San Antonio real
state within eighteen months. He is a
usher, and can size up towns pros
'ects about as quickly as any man in the
BUSINESS. 1t is good sign for Santa Fe
hat he is investing capital in her lands"
