Governor Prince issued a commission
to-day to George H. Pradt, OF Laguna, as
major and inspector of rifle practice on
his staff. Nearly every state and terri
tory in the Union has heretofore named
some deserving officer for this position,
and this appointment has been held in
allegiance until the governor could select
the proper officer.
Capt. McClernand, of the I'd cavalry,
who inspected the New Mexico militia
last year, strongly recommended that such
an officer should be appointed, and letters
from the war department also urged the
matter. New Mexico can to-day put more
good sharp shooters in the field than many
of the old states, and Major Pradt will see
what kind of shooters the territory can
produce. The promotion of Major Pradt
causes promotions in the Laguna COM
pany, G, 1st infantry, as follows: Robert
q. Marmon, captain; John NJ. Gum,
first lieutenant; Kenneth G. Gum, sec
ond lieutenant.
This means that the Laguna company
will come actively to the front, and if the
Albuquerque people mean business, they
will be at their fair ready to compete with
any company in the territory on drill.
Next year they intend to go to the
Worlds fair sure. The new officers oil
the Laguna company have been members
of the New Mexico militia for years, and
can be entirely relied upon in any emer-
gency.

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 1l.-The third day
OF the encampment shows no abatement
in the enthusiasm nor decrease in the
size of the crowds that have thronged this
city since the first of the week. Many of
the visitors, however, especially those not
connected with the Masonic order, have
taken up quarters at the neighboring
towns. Manitou and Colorado Springs
are both crowded with tourists, and more
people have visited Pixies Peak and other
points Of interest in the vicinity
of Denver during the past week than in
any previous month. The principal point
OF attraction in the city to-day was the
competitive drill at Overland park. Seat
ing accommodations had been provided
for 10000, but if the number Of seats had
been doubled or trebled the accommoda'
tions would still have been insufficient.
During the afternoon there was no formal
event, the visitors being left 10 their own
devices. Many excursions had been
arranged, however, and large parties Wis
tied the principal smelters, manufactures
and pleasure resorts.

Last Saturday evening a Mexican shot
and mortally wounded James Patterson,
and Patterson, after having been shot
through the body, killed the murderer.
This occurred at Gold Hill, Grant county.

had just delivered campaign address to
the miners of the camp, and he and Pat
terson were en- route to the latter's home
when the Mexican stopped them and
asked for drink OF liquor. Patterson
ordered the bartender to give the man
drink and passed on. Later the Mexican
followed Patterson and Fielder home and
began firing at them. Fielder loaned
Patterson his revolver and battle en-
sued. The Mexican fred three shots,
one of which took effect i'll Patterson 8
side, passing entirely through his body.

mottled brown, while test proved it was
too hard for gypsum and too soft for
granite, and in addition the color was
entirely too dark for either. There will

OMAHA, August lit has been dis
covered that Rev. J. G. Tate, the Repub.
lican nominee for lieutenant governor, is
ineligible. Tate is an Englisman and
had failed to take out his naturalization
papers until year ago. The constitution
requires that the governor and lieutenant
governor shall have been citizens of the
United States two years prior to'their
election. The state central committee
will be called upon to fill the vacancy.
Tate's case is similar to Gov. Boyds, the
difference being that Tate's father was
never naturalized and that he was not a
resident Of Nebraska when it was admit
