OUR NEW DRESS.
The New Mexican Springs a Little
Surprise on Its Readers-Im-
prOvements of Home
Interest.

What is the matter with the New MEX
1cAN?" What have you done to the
paper? Got new dress, chr"
These are some of the queries that were
thrown at the New MEx1oAN's representa-
lives last evening and this morning by
many citizens, coupled with appreciable
words of praise for the best newspaper in
the southwest.
On Saturday complete new dress for
the paper came to hand from the house
of Marder, Luse g. Co., Chicago, and on
Sunday the cases were cleared of the old
\ type and "laid" with the new. 1t wasn't
an easy job for the printers, either, for
the sharp edges of the new type had per-
ceptible effect upon their digits, accus-
toned as they are to handling the lead
ened cubes that move the world.
The new type is of the style known to
the craft as clean BREWER" that is it has
smaller face and more shoulder than the
type formerly in use and therefore it re-
quires less space and Afford 5 per cent
more reading matter to the column than
did the old type. 1t is considered the
acme of perfection for the metropolitan
journal of the age.
In addition to this large supply of
new head-letter was received for use on
the three editions of the New MEXICAN
the Daily, English weekly and Spanish
weekly-and also large invoice of mate
rial for the job and book manufacturing
departments, there being, among other
things, steam power sewing machine and
patent blank book device (the celebrated
Frey PATENT of special moment to bank
ers, officials and the counting rooms of
mercantile and mining institutions.
One other important feature is to be ad,
ded this fall, and this is complete daily
telegraphic press report, but there is q
proviso attached to this, which not only
Santa Feans, but the friends of progress
all over New Mexico are directly concerned
in. If business justiies it this telegraphit
press report will be contracted for, other
wise it will not be. This is the proviso; il
depends wholly upon how the citizens o.

vided efforts to promote everything iden
titled with the prosperity and advancement

A Murderers' Fate.

Francisco Chavez, Jr., was last Saturday
afternoon fonnd guilty of murder in the
second degree in the district court at Los
Lunas and sentenced to twenty years i'm
prisonment at hard labor in the territorial
penitentiary.
From the evidence 1T appears that the
crime with which Chavez is charged was
committed neither in self-defense, revenge
nor anger, but in mere wantonness of
spirit and unparalleled brutality. The
most that can be cleaned from the testi-
mony given upon the trial is that during
the night of the feast at Tome, in row
which occurred at that place, the man

A Mammoth Reservoir.

J.J Hagerman, ofthe Pecos Irrigation&
improvement company-an appreciatigf
patron of the New MEXICAN, by the way
passed down the road few days ago en-
route to Eddy, where hegoes to confer
with Hon. c. B. Eddy on another big water
enterprise for the lower Pecos. Said Mr.
Hagerman:
"We are going to make an i'm pounding
reservoir by building a dam at Seven
Rivers this winter-it will take about eight
months to construct (which will have a
capacity of four billions of cubic feet, or
about eight times as much as that of the
present reservoir above Eddy. This new
reservoir, when full, will, without any out
side help, be able to supply our canals with
water for 70 days. In winter and during
flood seasons in summer, the reservoir can
be filled many times over, and will save q
great quantity of water to supplement the
ordinary flow. The present reservoir,
however, and the river furnish plenty for
the canal system, but the increase will
make everything safer in dry years, and
will irrigate additional acreage"

This delightful comedy will be present
ed the local public at the court house on
Tuesday evening next, October 4. The
cast will be filled by local talent, and the
success which has attended the careful
rehearsals, now in progress for ten days
past, gives evidence that the play will be
presented with the most critical regard
for dramatic detail. The funds derived
from the entertainment are to go toward

APointer for santa Feans.

Up at Ration they are having trouble
in pushing the town because there are
moss-backs who scare away capital. A
capitalist there gives the following
pointer to a reporter: IF your people
generally will stand by those outsiders
who have confidence enough in your town
to assist in building it up and enhancing
the value of every species of property
here, you will have no trouble in securing
all the money you may need for legitimate
enterprises. But, so long as you have
an element in your town, small and insig-
nificant though it may be who cavil at al
object to the efforts of outside capital tc

DIED OF EPILEPSY.
Body Marks on the Portuguese Mer-
chants Wife-NO Blame Attached
to the Husband.

Hon. Ambrosio Pine is in from Calls
teo to-day, and in regard to the report,
copied in these columns yesterday from
the Cerrillos Rustler, touching the alleged
brutal treatment Jose Luiz, the Portuguese
merchant, accorded his wife prior to her
death, Mr.. Pine says it is all a grievous
error and does injustice to agood citizen.
The woman had been ill for long time
and was subject to frequent fits of cpl
lepsy. Four times within six months she
had been on the verge of death and Mr.
Pine was present in person and aided in
restoring her to life. Her husband in no.
wise maltreated her; on the contrary he
did all that any citizen would do for a
sick wife under the circumstances. 1t is
possible that DR.. Palmer, of Cerrillos
discovered bruises upon her body after
death, but these she sustained from a fall
brought on by her fits of epilepsy.

THE POLITICAL FIELD.
Mr.. CatrOn's UtteranccS i'll San Juan
County--Paulin Declmes-Cam-
paign Matters of Moment.

In the San Juan County Index's report
of Mr. Catron's address at Aztec appears
this paragraph which is of special inter
est to the New MEx1oANs readers at this
time Mr.. Catron said:
I'VE must do something to repeal the
anti-alien-law. What shall it be? Pass
the bill now pending in the senate to
make New Mexico a state. But at the
very outset we are met by Republican
senators with the inquiry: What's your
politics? If admitted what senators will
the new state send and how will they
affect the political equilibrium Of the
senate? The situation is this: The
Republicans now have a majority of SIX
in tho senate. On the 4th of March, Sen
ator Hlscock, of New York, will be retired
for Democrat. That will reduce the
majority to four. Likewise Senator
Sanders, of Montana, will at the same
time retire for a Democrat. That Will
reduce the Republican majority to two
Two Democratic senators from New Mex
leo would tie the senate; and should the
Republicans lose another senator IN the
legislative elections this fall, two Dem
ocratic senators from New Mexico
would give the Democrats majority
in that body. Hence Republican senators
insist that the admission of New Mexico
shall not disturb the political equilibrium
of the senate, and will not vote to do it I'M
less there is a certainty that her senators
will be Republicans. Now we will admit
that this is wrong-it is mean; but the Re-
publican states have the power to keep us
out, and in the contingency indicated they
will do it. To restrain the revolutionary
tendencies of the opposite party they fee
they would be justified in doing so. The!
will not risk their power, nor, under the
same circumstances, would you. But the
chances are that the Republicans will re
main in power. Now what can we do? W.
must push the act of admission by show
that our state will be Republican, by elect
ing Republican delegate and Republi
can legislature"

PAULIN DECLINES.

The Democratic convention at Santa
Fe nominated Hon. L. R. E. Paulin, of
San Juan, for councilman from this dis
district. Mr.. Paulin Immediately tele-
graphed that he would not accept the
nomination. There are no flies on" Mr..
Paulin, and he can not be flattered into
extending his arm for what is beyond the
reach of Democrat this year.
The above from the San Juan Index
lets a cat out of the bag. The fact that
Mr.. Paulin had declined to run for the leg
islative council against Hon. 7. D. Burns,
has been kept very quiet at Democratic
headquarters here, and nothing was known
of it on the outside until the Index came
to hand last night. A call at headquarters
brought out the statement that no definite
action had yet been taken toward hlllng
the place on the ticket left open by Mr.
Paulin's declination,

wORLD,s FAIR NOTES.

Miss Laura Johns, of Decatur, H., has
been awarded prize of $25 for the best de-
sign for a seal for the Illinois wOman's ex-
position board.
As evidence of the great and widespread
interest abroad taken in the worlds fair
it is announced that more than half of the
mail now being received at the State de-
partment at Washington is in relation to it.
The liberation of carrier pigeons and the
keeping of a record OF their fight will be
an interesting feature of the live stood eX-
hibit at the exposition. A number of
breeders OF pigeons will exhibit birds, and
they are now making arrangements for the
proposed contests. George w. Childs, of
Philadelphia, and several others have
offered prizes for the winners in the con-
tests. The speed record now is 1926 miles
in 329 minutes.
Prof. Charles D. Walcott, of the United
States Geological Survey, intends to have
at the worlds fair an exhibit which will
illustrate a section of the earth's crust by
specimens of the rock strata placed in
their proper relative positions, and by col
lectsons of the characteristic fossils shown
in connection with the formations in
which they are found.
George w. Childs the Philadelphia phil
antrophist, signalized his visit to the
worlds fair grounds on May by planting
a linden tree on the wooded island" Mr..
Childs has donated to the exposition
number of rare and beautiful palm trees
from his conservatory. He is very enthu-
siastic over the fair and its prospects,
Mrs. Viola Fuller, of Mitchell, S. D., has
applied for space in the Woman's building
for unique and beautiful opera cloak, the
only one its kind existing. The garment,
which is fifty-seYen inches in length, and
circular in design, is composed entirely of
certain small and particularly delicate
feathers of prairie chickens. Only five or
siZ of this peculiar kind are found on
single bird, consequently the cloak not only
represents ten years patient labor but the
plumage of hundreds of birds. The feath-
ers were sewed to the foundation one at a
time and deeply overlapping, and now
form a light, even surface as smoothe aa
the birds breast The cloak is trimmed in
otter fur, which is also the product ofSouth
Dakota.
The New York School of Industrial Art
and Technical Design for Women, of which
Mrs. Florence K. Cory is principal, will
make notable exhibit in the Woman's
building. 1t will embrace the work of 500
women, pupils of the institution, in the
line of preparing working designs for body
brussels and ingram carpets, tapestry,
table linen, wall papers, oilcloths, stained
glass screens, window shades, embroidery,
laces, calico, prints, etc., ETC., and also
many finished fabrics made from these de-
signs. The designs made by pupils of this
school are furnished to many foreign as
well as domestic manufacturers.

A RARE SIGHT.
An Immense iceberg Seen by Pas.
sengers of a Steamer.

sengers OF "a Steamer.
New York, May 30.-Capt. Frangeul OF
the steamer La Touraine, which arrived at
her dock, sighted during the trip one OF
the biggest icebergs ever seen floating in
the track of vessels:
A great mountain of mist was seen ahead
a little before sunrise on Thursday morn
ing. For moment it was thought to be
the approach of a dense fog, but Can't.
Frangeul's experience led him to look for
danger in the soft, fieecy bank The ves-
sels course was guided carefully and she
passed about half mile south of the fog.
BY that time many of the passengers had
come on deck. The morning had been
cloudy, but the sun came out bright and
warm. As La Touraine got to the west
ward OF the floating vaper, those on her
decks were repaid for their watch. The
sun rose, and as its rays struck the feecv
mountain, the vapor disappeared as if by
magic mature lifted the veil and left revealed
sclntillating mass of crystal that dazzled
the eyes of the beholders. 1t was one of
the beautiful sights that ocean travellers
are occasionally fortunate enough to wit
ness with safety.
The sunbeams danced on the mass
which extended as high said the captain.
'as the New Jersey Highlands. The
points on its surface were gradually melt
ing away, and the drops Of water reflected
all the cOlors of the rainbow. As an en-
thuslastic passenger described it, one
might imagine it to be an immense dia-
mond set in the earths circumference bv
one of natures genii."
