ANNIE'S STORY.
Cavanaugh Will Explain Why He Was in
Her Room.

~Cavanaugh Will Explain Why He Was in
Her Room.
Annie Lunquist, a young woman OF 70.
complained to Sergeant Quirk at II O'Clock
last night that Thomas Cavanaugh had en-
tered her room and attempted to get in her
bed. C%avanaugh and the young woman
are employed at the Home restaurant on
Main street. Annie will tell her story be-
fore Judge Sanders this afternoon.
George Peters and one Maxwell stole
three overcoats at the Methodist church on
Warren street last night while the owners
of the garments were engaged at the even
ing services. Sergeant Quirk and Officer
Murphy caught the men about 1920 on
Main street with one of the coats in their
possession. A coat was also taken from the
Atlas on Main street last night, and it is
thought by the police that the pair stole
it. Maxwell is said to be the same individ-
ual who stripped a clothing dummy in
front of Ben Harris store, for which he
vent over the road for a term. He had
lately been released. Both of the men are
about % years Did. When Maxwell was
taken out of his cell at the station last
night to be searched for pawn tickets, he
apparently feigned stupor, but rapidly
came to his lenses after being rolled around
on the floor.

institutions to be established will be a state
normal school and the professor would like
to have it located at Twin Bridges. The
school at that town now under the pro-
fessor's charge is called a normal
school though not under the authority
of the state. The normal school
might be located in many far less desirable
places. The citizens of Twin Bridges GER
tainly nave an excellent foundation for the
institution. They have a school we'll
equipped with all modern appliances and
under excellent instruction, and they have
contributed generously for its support.

Senator Browns course in ~resigning was
undoubtedly dictated by the action of his
republican associates in voting to remit the
fines imposed on the democratic senators
last session. His action, together with the
death of Representative Witter. leaves Bea-
verhead county with but one representative
in the whole legislature, Repre-
sentative Wing. Governor Toole
has practically decided to call a
new election to fill the senatorial vacancy
and that in the house. The only question
he is uncertain about is the time to be al
lowed between the call and the day of cleo
ton.

Beach. The bill was introduced and dis

and was therefore in good shape for pas
sage. After several minor amendments
the committee arose and recommended
the passage of the bill. 1t requires GER
tain county officers to report the fees and
emoluments of their offices. The bill was
first introduced in the house last winter and
has therefore been before three different
houses. MIR. Toole's bill prescribing duties
of a state board of examiners was also re-
ported favorably by the committee with a
few amendments.

AFTER THE SPECKLED ONES.
The New Fish Lava Rush up the Canon
of the Rio Santa Fe to-day.

Under the fish law as amended by the
late legislative assembly citizens of New
Mexico are authorized to take fish from
the public streams and lakes in the terri
tory on and after this date. The moditi-
cation of the law simply amounts to an
extension OF the time of fishing, permit
ting it beginning with May l instead Of
June l, as originally provided. All other
features of the old law are still in force,
that is, that no person can lawfully catch
fish for the market, nor to present to his
friends. He can take what his own ina
mediate necessities demand and no more.
Unquestionably the law had very
beneficial effect in that it has more than
doubled the number of fish in the noun
tain streams. This was shown by the in
creased size and number of fish in the
upper waters of the Rio Santa Fe last
season. A great many people are up the
canon to-day enjoying the sport of taking
in the speckled tid-bits. Appended is
amended portion OF the fish law;
Section /. That section OF an act OF
the legislative assembly of the territory
CT New Mexico, approved February IA,
1889, entitled IAN act to provide for the
protection and propagation Of fish," be
and the same hereby is amended so as to
read as follows:
"Section 4. That it shall not be law
full to kill, take or have in possession any
trout or other food fish taken or killed in
any of the public waters Of this territory
during the months of November, Deem.
Der, January, February, March and
April, or either of said months, in any
year, and the possession of trout or other
food fish obtained as aforesaid during the
months above mentioned shall be prims
facie evidence of the violation OF the pro-
visions of this section"
Sec. 2. This act shall be in full force
and effect from and after its passage.
Approved February "a, 1891.
