Quite Blockade on the ID. ~ II. G. r.. R.
Editor W. S. Stevens, of the Northwest
New Mexican published at Chama, writes
from there under date of February 23d
last, that the Denver and Rio Grande
railroad across the Conejos range and
Cumbres pass has been blockaded by
snow for week, and that it may be two
weeks yet before the road will be in
shape for travel. He has received no
copy of the New MEXICAN since the 18th
instant, and is consequently somewhat at
loss to know what has happened in the
outer world.
In this connection it may be again said
to the Denver & Rio Grande authorities,
that it would be cheaper, better and
more profitable all around were they to
abandon the piece of track over and
across the range and build up the Chama
and acr oss the Canon Largo the San
Juan river and thence up to Durango.

ARB0R DAY PROCLAMATION.
By the Governor.

Whereas, The legislature has directed
that the second Friday in March of each
year be observed as Arbor day, and thus
a new official sanction has been given to
the beautiful and useful custom inaugu-
rated here by proclamation in 1890.
Now, Therefore, I, L. Bradford Prince,
governor of New Mexico, do proclaim and
give notice, that
FRIDAY MARCH 10,
is set apart for Arbor day, to be observed
by the people in the planting of trees, for
the benefit and alteration OF public
and private grounds, roads, streets and
avenues, and in such other undertakings
as are in harmony with the general char
acter of such holiday.
In accordance with the newly enacted
law, | recommend and enjoin the
due celebration of the day, on
all our people. The day shall
be holiday in all public schools in New
Mexico, and school officers and teachers
are required to have it observed by the
schools under their charge, by the plant
ing of trees and other appropriate exer-
cises.
| repeat the suggestion made year
ago, that trees be planted along all
acequias, as this, in short time, will en-
tirely change the appearance of our val
leys, and also afford grateful shade and
refreshment 70 man and beast.

An Encounter at Nice That BrouS ht Msnv
Fata itIos In ItsgTrain.
The suicide Of MajoELNormann, of the
German army, which occurred recently,
was said to DO due to an unpleasant
scandal involving his morals But was
that tho real reason for tho self-murdor?
This suicide is tho ond Of long train
Of suicides and sudden deaths, all OF
which seemingly had t. cir origin in q
duel which took place in Nice in Janu-
Nry in 1888, and in which the two prirci
pals were Baron Won Plossen and 4 we'll
known Belgian sportsman.
Ono morning while exercising his
horse on the Hippodromo of the Var at
Nice the Belgian saw one OF his friends,
Herr Oelschlager, q Berlin sportsman.
walking along with distracted air. He
accordingly galloped up behind him,
uhisked off the Germans hat by way of
pleasantly and cried: "WcIl, German,
why don't you say good morning?'
What Herr Oelschlager thought of
this pleasantly will never be known, but
Baron Won Plessen, who was walking
with Oelschlager, supposed it was meant
for an insult, and gave the Belgian tro
mendous blow in tho faco.
Seconds were appointed and duel
was at once arranged. Tho Belgian in
sisted that the duel should BIO as severe
as possible.
It was finally decided that the en-
counter should be with pistols and that
the duel should be fought in Herr
0elschlager's dining-room. In order
that tho seconds might not be arrested
or suspected each of tho adversaries
wrote 4 letter to his second saying th;l!
he was about to kill himself, and this
"as to be used in Case ono or the other
tell.
The duol camo off and Baron Won Pies
sen was killed by bali in the forehead
at tho very first fro. His adversary was
unhurt. All the participants kept ST.
lcnce about the affair
But in 1889 tho fatality which has
pursued every ono connected with this
singular duel began TO work.
First one of tho seconds, Lieutenant
of Uhlans named Stcinmotz. killed him
self, vastly To the surprise of his friends,
who supposed him perfectly happy
This suicide took place early in 1880.
Early in this year two other seconds,
Herr Oclschlay.r and tho Vicomte de
Jumrilhc died suddenly. Last Novem-
Der tho Belgian who killed Won Plcssen
in tho duel announced that he was tired
Of life and killed himself with q bullet
in tho breast.
And now tho suicide of Major Nor

onds, closes tho dread tragedy, which
