The LOWER PECOS VALLEY.

The irrigation system Of the PeCos Irrl-
CATION & Improvement company in Eddy
and Chaves counties in this territory il
the largest and best constructed in the
United States. About 100000 acres of as
fine land as ever laid out of doors can be
had under the bitches of that system al
an average price OF $25 per acre on long
time and per cent interest. Perpetual
water rights go with the land purchased
The climate is far superior to that Of
southern California. This section of New
Mexico has already railroad connection
from the south and within d year will be
connected with central and northern New
Mexico from the north.
Eddy county where the irrigation
system of the Pecos company is mostly
located, is rapidly settling up with very
good class of people. Schools are excel
lent and in abundance. The present
markets are profitable and new ones are
being opened. There are no land grants
10 that section OF New Mexico. The
people are law abiding and progressive
The management of the Pecos Irrigation
company is very liberal, painstaking and
honest.
The southeastern corner of New Mex
leo is growing rapidly and in the right
direction and this growth is to be ascribed
mainly to the courage, fair dealing, energy
and 60 ahead methods OF the men who
formed the Pecos Irrigation & Improve
ment company and who have brought
about IN less than four years most
wonderful change in a country that up tc
that time was the home solely Of the
Apache and Comanche.

W.
Denver Republican, Rep: The Hill
machine in New York is working like a
charm, and there is no doubt that when
the Democratic state convention meets
on the 22d instant, an overwhelming
majority of that body will be in favor of
sending q solid Hill delegation to the
national convention at Chicago. AT the
same time it is equally certain that
thousands and probably tens of thousands
of the best Democrats in New York will
refuse to vote for David B. Hill for presi
dent The logic Of the situation points
uDquestionahly to the reelection Of
President Harrison, and that is the best
thing that can happen for the welfare OF
the country.
Brooklyn Standard Union, Rep: A
Democrat " 10 thinks Hill has killed of
Cleveland, and that he must die for the
deed, turns to the east instead of to the
west TO find candidate, and says Gov,
ernor Russell as the Democratic candidate
for the presidency would carry all New
England. But it has been well said OF
Governor Russell that he Was elected gov
ernor by denying all that represented the
Democratic party. There are some boys
in Massachusetts who have fad that they
call Democracy, and it has had run.
This congress will teach them that their
share in the Democratic party Is spurious
issue of stock.
x**
Louisville Courier-J ournal Stalwart
Dem: Mr.. Harrison will be his own
successor upon the national Republican
ticket, and if there are those who think
be will prove weak nominee or can
didate easy to be beaten they will find
themselves mistaken.
That Mr.. Cleveland is, outside of the
state of New York, the choice of an over
whelming Majority of the Democrats Of
the United States is an indsputable fact.
1t is Cleveland first, the rest nowhere.
But TO all appearances it seems with the
Democrats of New York it is Hill first
and Cleveland nowhere.
Are we again going to fall between the
two stools of this old, never ending fac
ton fight, this eternal, incurable seven
year llCn renewing ltsell every louf years
among the Democratic politicians of the
state of New York? 1t seems so.
*sx
Fort Worth Gazette, DEM: 1t has
been admitted for months past by the
Mugwump organs that Hill would have
the New York delegation. They conced-
ed him seventy votes out of it, before a
date was fixed for the state convention.
They had never expressed even hope of
a different result. The objection to an
early convention is not that it will affect
the result in New York, but that it will
announce the result in New York before
other state conventions are held. What
they proposed was to keep up the pre-
tense of Cleveland sentiment in New
York, and through a false impression to
influence action in other states.
The Mugwump row in New York is due
to the impending exposure OF the fact
that Mr.. Cleveland is not presidential
possbility-obly that and nothing more.

A NAVAL EXHIBIT.
A Model Cadet Line Battle Ship One
of the Naval Exhibits.

OF the Naval Exhibits.
The Navy department has given to
the Worlds Columbian exposition ono
of its greatest attractions, a model OF
one of our coast line battleships. This
imitation battfeship of 1893 is erected
on piling on the lake front in the
northeast Fart of Jackson park. 1t is
surrounded by water and has the APP
pearance of being moored to wharf.
The structure has all the fittings that
belong to the actual ship, such as
guns, turrets, torpedo tubes, torpedo
nets and booms, with boats, anchors,
chain cables, davits, awnings, deck
fittings, etc, etc, together with all
appliances for working the same. Off
GERS, seamen, mechanics and marines
are detailed by the Navy department,
and the discipline and mode of life on
our naval vessels are completely
shown. The detail of men is not,
however, as great as the complement
of the actual ship. The crew gives
certain drills, especially boat, torpedo
and gun drills, as in a vessel of war.
The dimensions of the structure are
those of the actual battleship, to-wit:
length, 34S feet; width amidships, 90
feet 3 inches; and from the water line
to the top of the main deck, 12 feet
Centrally placed on this deck is
superstructure feet high with ham
mock berthing on the same feet high,
and above these are the bridge, chart
house and the boats.
At the forward end of the super
structure there is a cone-shaped tower,
called the military mast" near the
top of which are placed two circular
'tops' as receptacles for sharpshoot-
ers. Rapid firing guns are mounted
in each of these tops. The height from
the water line to the summit of this
military mast is 70 feet, and above is
placed flagstaff for signaling.
The battery mounted comprises four
13-inch breech-loading rifle cannon;
eight s-inch breech-loading rifle can
non; four 6-inch breech-loading
rifle cannon; twenty 6-pounder
rapid-fring guns; six 1-pound
rapid-fring guns; two Calling guns,
and six torpedo tubes or torpedo guns.
All of these are placed and mounted
respectively as in the genuine battle
ships.
On the sturboard side of the ship is
shown the torpedo protection net,

strangers, who they supposed had
descended in their winged barks from
the skies.
The caravels had fulfilled their mis-
sion. Humble instruments that they
were, they had enabled the great navi-
gator to confirm what was then
deemed his extravagant theory of a
new route to India.
Such, in brief, is the story of the
caravels. In modest way the United
States government has sought to do
them honor, and their port of departure
has not been forgotten. They, together
with the great admiral, as well as the
humble sailor whose good fortune it
IL was to be the first to see the land of
Western World, have all been remeln-
bered, and their names perpetuated in
the United States navy list.
A fine line of battle ship Of eighty
guns, launched from the Washington
navy yard in 1919, was christened
Columbus. She was burnt at Norfolk
in '6l.
The st. Mary's Twenty guns), named
after the Santa Maria, was launced
from the Washington navy yard in
1914, and is now the school ship of
New York city. The Pinta, gun-boat,
is at Sitka, Alaska. The Nina, tug
boat, is on special service. The Palos,
gun-boat, is on the Asiatic station.
The Triana, tug, recently wrecked,
was named after the poor sailor who
missed the pension, but who, let us
hope, received the velvet doublet.

The total cost of the exposition
structures alone is So, 900, 900. This
amount, however, represents less than
one-half of the total expenditure for
the great enterprise. The Grounds
and Buildings committee give the fol-
lowing list of necessary expenses:
Grading, filling, ETC., $3.50, 400; land
scape gardening, S323, 400; viaduets and
bridges, S125, 900; piers, $40, 900; water

ings, 500, 900; vases, lamps, and posts,
$50, 900, seating, $1,000; water supply,
sewerage, ETC., 5000, 900; improvement
of lake front, S2oo,OO Worlds Con-
gress Auxiliary, 100000; construction
department expenses, fuel, ETC., $500,
600; organization and administration,
S3,30s, 500; operating expenses during
exposition, 81, 900; total, SO, $780,
453.
This sum, added to the amount to be
expended in the erection of buildings,
makes necessary a grand total expendi-
ture by the Exposition company of
S1s,530,453. This, it must be clearly
understood, does not include any part
of the United States government APP
preparation, or any part of the appro-
priations of the several States or
foreign countries. OF this SIS, $40, 453.
1t is estimated that $4,000, 900 will
have to be paid out before the opening
of the gates of the exposition on May
1, 1893. The total expenditurerof the
Exposition company to date for all
purposes is about 1900, 900.
The resources of the exposition are
as follows: Stock subscriptions, S. 21,-
23o; City of Chicago bonds, $4,000, 900;
Prospective gate receipts, $4,000, 900;
Concessions and privileges; 81, SOC, 900;

COLUMBUS WIFE.
The Woman Whom He Loved the
Daughter of u Navigator.

Laws like those which in chemistry
govern the affinity of combining atoms
in social intercourse produce personal
affinities. The greatest of all discov-
erers was himself destined TO wed the
daughter of discoverer Columbus
often went to mass on Sundays and
other obligatory days. His residence
in Lisbon being near the convent of
All Saints, he resorted thither to per-
form his devotions, and in his assidu-
Gus attendance there it was his fate to
be attracted by Dona Felipa Muniz
until he sought and obtained her in
marriage.
The affection of Columbus for the
young Lusitanian doubtless possessed
practical features also, in view of the
sailors desire to live for the realization
in his ripper age of the work already
fully planned in the latter years of his
exuberant youth. Moreover, crediting
his contemporaries as we should, the
incompatible pilot displayed two traits
capable of turning the head, l will not
say of Dona Felipa Muniz, but of every
woman-eloquence and personal at
Effectiveness.
His many graces captivated her
sense, his eloquence her mind. Felipa
Muniz and Christopher Columbus were
made one, in conformity with religion
and law, in holy indissoluble wcdlock.

born to them, who was baptized in
Lisbon and named DIEGO

Coiumbus Cannon ON Exhibition.

Two of the cannon which, it is be-
lieved, were at one time mounted on
board Christopher Columbus flagship
were received at Chicago recently.
The cannon are of the ancient and
clumsy pattern of such guns turned
out in the fifteenth century. Nothing
but the body Of the guns remains, the
woodwork, of course, having rotted
away centuries ago. The guns them
selves are almost worn to pieces and
are not much more than huge chunks
of rust. Indeed, the cannon are put
on the ''scrap iron" list in the cannon
house papers. These historic old
pieces have been secured for exhibit
ten at the worlds fair. One of the
naval officers who was detailed for
work in connection with the Columbus
exposition found the relics at one of
the West India islands. Tradition and
substantial proof showed that the cam
non had been used in fort erected by
Columbus son, and that they were
brought from Spain with Columbus
feet The ruins OF the fort are still to
be seen.
