A Bloody Afray.

A Mexican, calling himself Vii cente Jaramillo, hailing from Va
 lencia county, was in the city yes
 terday afternoon. and the following account of a bloody encounter be- tween two factions of sheep shear CTS was gleaned. The affray, so the reporter understands, occurred at a point known as Ojo Le Trigo, near the Manzano mountains, on the plains. He stated that as the Rio Grande is high and all the lowlands overflowed with water, owners of herds of sheep find it impossible to reach their regular shearing To- calities on the river, and that being the fact they are obliged to look out for and locate places for shear ing on the plains, At the springs of Ojo Le Trigo, a Mexican owner of sheep, named Sanchez, had put up stake to notify all corners that he had taken up the spring as his shearing place. After performing this duty, he went off to round up his flock, but he was hardly out of sight before another Mexican, Ara gon by name, came along with his flock and his shearers. The latter party, paying no heed to Sanchez location stake, took possession of the spring and went to work at once Bright and early the next morning Sanchez hove in sight of the spring, with his men and sheep, and on riding up to where Aragon was he told him that he had previously taken possession of the water and and demanded that he (Aragon) vacate at once. Aragon, stating that he had as much right to the water as he (Sanchez,) positively refused to leave, whereupon pistols were drawn by the two factions and a general melee ensued. Jaramillo states that he was informed that three men were killed and several others badly wounded, but he was unable to furnish their names Albuquerque Citizen.

Young Beef For Profit.

The progress ofideas as connect ed with farm practices is far more rapid than farmers get credit for as the work goes along. We have on- ly to look back oyer a few years oi time to learn that great changes in methods and practices have taken place and have settled down into the position of common practice. This change has been very marked in the business of growing and fat tenlng beef. This change is more plainly illustrated in the west with their large operations, though the change has taken place here as we'll as there. It was but a few years ago that it was the general under standing that an animal must be four years or more before he was fitted for the butcher and for the consumer. Professor Sanborn showed that pound of growth could be made on less food and at far less cost on a growing animal than on an old one in fact, that it was a law of growth that the young CT the animal the greater the growth per day, and the less food per day called for. He further showed to the satisfaction of all feeders that the growth of steers the third year and later on did not pay it's way. The Chicago Fat Stock show soon adopted the then remarkable plan of offering no prizes on beef cattle so old as four years, thus taking the ground that there should be no en- couragement given to keeping steers up to that age. Growers soon caught up with this edea, and came to &C., cept the action as wise and proper. -Coleman's Rural World,

A Big Roundup.

The law provides that all person. al property sold for taxes must be on the ground at the court house at the time of sale. Heretofore no at tention has been. paid to this re- quirement and a man owning per sonal property and no real estate could defy the treasurer to his hearts content, knowing that sale where the property was not present was null and void. In this way the real estate owners have been worsted and a man who owned a few hum dred head of cattle or horses at a point in the county distant from Tombstone was in clover if he want ed to be. But the end is near at hand.
 Treasurer McAllister has appoint ed a half dozen deputy collectors who will round up all personal pro- perty on which taxes are delin- quent and bring such property to Tombstone where it will be sold, One deputy started for Bisbee this morning and will take in that camp first.
 The treasurer is simply doing his duty and his bondsmen are liable to the county for the amount of taxes uncollected by any neglect on his part to obey the law as he finds it.-Prospector.

Attempt to Escape.

It has been a busy week at the penitentiary. Charles Wetherell made an attempt to escape last Fri day afternoon and enjoyed a few hours outside the walls. Wetherell was cook for the guards mess and had considerable liberty. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon he watch ed his chance and while outside the yard he exchanged his striped suit for other clothes he had managed to get some way. He got off the hill without being seen by the guard at the Gatling stand and made for the railroad yard. Freight train No. 21 was about to pull out for the east and Wetherell succeeded in se- creting himself in the tool box un- der the caboose. When Gila Bend was reached the next morning the caboose was side-tracked and Weth- erell became suspicious that he was left. He got out of his hiding place and made for the Gila river, four miles distant. He was captured by constable and four Indians. Louis Jaeger, who was at Aztec, went on to Gila Bend and returned with Wetherell in charge. He had a five years sentence, of which he had served about eighteen months. It is thought that he must have re- ceived some assistance from a brakeman. On investigation Su- perintendentMcInerney came to the conclusion that the guard at the Gatling stand had been negligent of his duty and he was discharged. Yuma Times.

A New Line.


 The Salt Lake, Colorado and Gulf railroad filed articles of incorpora- tion. The capital stock is $100,OOO. The incorporators are Horace Brightman, Erastus F. Mead, Aus tin Stevens, Joseph W. Hanna. Chauncey W. Blackman and David H. Lemon. The line of railroad to be built extends from Fort Wingate, New Mexico, to Cortez, thence to Salt Lake City, a branch to El Paso and Galveston, Texas. Branches are to be built to Rico and Durango, Colo, and to Bluff City, Utah. It is also proposed to build telegraph line. The principal office is at Cor tez, Colo.
 The projected line means a great deal for the southwestern portion of New Mexico, and particularly the town of Gallup, which is situ- ated among the greatest coal pro- ducing fields in that country. The only road which taps this region at present is the Atlantic < Pacific. For several years a line ofroad has been talked of to connect Cortez with Gallup in order to bring the products of the valley to a nearer market than the one reached by way of Durango over the Denver & Rio Grande.
 The new road will also tap one of the great wool producing centers. Several million pounds of wool are yearly purchased from the Navajo Indians, whose reservation is con- tiguous to the Montezuma valley, and it has been the custom to ship all of this to eastern markets oyer the Atlantic & Pacific, it having to be freighted hundreds of miles from the trading posts to the railroad. The branch to El Paso will proba- ply parallel the Santa Fe, passing through the stock and mining DOT tions of New Mexico and the orch ards of the Messilla valley.
 The development of the coal fields has been slow on account of there being but one railroad. which prac- tically dictated the output of the mines. With another road there will be a larger output, more mines and general prosperity.
 It is generally believed that Otto Mears, president of the Rio Grande Southern, is interested in the pro- posed line. He once had survey made from Cortez to Fort Wingate, and has always wanted to build the road. Hisline would have a splen- did southern outlet.-Denver News,
