The A., T. & S. F. will in few days
announce rate of cent mile to the
territorial fair at Albuquerque in Septem-
Der. The rates will cover points between
Albuquerque, Ell Paso, Denver and Silver

enough.
Capt. John Ayers to-day received from
the war department the appointment as
custodian OF the Ft. Marcy, reservation,
and he will enter upon his duties at once.
The appointment is an excellent one,
giving universal satisfaction. Not the
least pleasant feature about it for Capt.
Ayers is the fact that it carries with it a
salary OF $50 per month.

Again it must be acknowledged that
the government of the city of Santa Fe
has so far been conducted in very
economical and straightforward man
ner. Of course, absolutely nothing has
been done so far by the new mayor and
city government, but as the earth has still
1900, 900 years to exist, there is plenty
of time ahead.
Messrs. H. B. Cartwright and 7. P
Gable got home yesterday from five
days trip on horseback to the lakes at the
head OF the Rio Santa Fe. They fishec
up the stream and back, catching ovel
100 trout. At the lakes their stay wat
brief because of the rain and hail thai
falls almost daily at this season of the
year. They encountered several snow
banks on the trip.
E. T. Weber, Denver capitalist who
has invested somewhat largely in SAINTS
Fe property, is represented by the Denve
Times as saying that he has unboundet
J faith in the capital city, and he think
that with its undeveloped resources ant
its geographical position on direct lin
between Denver and Old Mexico, anC
San Francisco and Galveston, it is bount
to have great future.
The board OF penitentiary managers il
is in session to-day at the office of thu
J institution, all the commissioners being
present. Only the consideration of &C
counts occupied the forenoon, outside o

to limit the supply of such luxuries
The board will probably be in session
over tomorrow.
Last Thursdays rain storm took the
form of cloud burst in the Santa FL
canon, and the food marks show the
water in the stream to have been higher
than at any time since the summer o
1886. Great quantities of lose rock wer'
washed from the mountain sides into tn,
canon, and several bridges were eithe
wrecked or SO badly damaged as to b.
we'll nigh impossible. 1t is now pretty
serious undertaking to drive vehicle t.
Monument Rock. A few days work
, however, would serve to make the roat
fairly good and somebody ought to SCI
that it is attended to. This is matte
that the livery men could we'll afford t.
look after.
