over tho same road twice.
In addition to this Mr. Greene on
hall section adjoining Eddy has laid on
another beautiful park, known as High
lands in which the lots will be smaller
about seventy feet front by 1866 deep
These he proposes to sell at $500 for IN
side and $500 for corner lots. Large sec
tions of this ground are laid out as pub
( lie parks, and these Mr.. Greene has i'm
proved with trees and fountains. 1t viii
be an IDEAL home for persons of som,
means, and was laid out on the theor,
that the climate Of the Pecos will attrac
many persons of means who do not cart
to enter on actual farm or ranch life. A
dozen and more very pretty cottages have

/ THE PEoos IRRIGATED FARMS COMPANY.
/ Mr.. Greene Is president and manager
of the Pecos Irrigated Farms company
| with capital of $250,000. They comprise
three sections known as the Lower Farms
| on the Pecos south of Malaga. They are
all under ditch and are intended to be
! sold in lots of forty acres. On each plat
twenty acres is planted to alfalfa, ten
acres to fruit trees, and the remaining ten
acres is merely cleared SO that the pur.
chaser may devote it to any culture he
desires, or the company will plant it ac-
cordlng to orders. This land improved
rs it is sells for the reasonable price OF
$50 per acre, or $2,4OO for forty acre
tract. The payments run over four years
and are i'll equal installments of $500
each. This proposition is probably the
most advantageous to the purchaser Of any
ever made in the west. The farms are in
perfect condition for growing profitable
corps at the moment the farmer takes
them.
On the Feliz river twenty-five miles
from Roswell and adjacent to the rail
road, are 5000 acres laid out in the same
way as the lower farms.
The expense of all these Improvements
is about $4,000 per month. Everything
is done thoroughly. The purchasers will
find all preliminary work done and good
crops growing on the lands. Chns. W.
Greene, jr., son of the protector of all
this, is the manager, and will be pleased
to furnish detailed information to any
inquirers.
The Greene properties are among the
best in the Pecos Valley. All of them lie
in selected locations. The parks near
Eddy are very beautiful. The Highlands,
before briefly described, contain six hand
some reservations, known by such sug-
gestive names as Lilly Park, Rose Park,
etc. In the latter 5000 rose cuttings
have been set out. In the other all species
of lilies are being planted. This addi-
ton will be of surprising beauty, and
such a place as can seldom be seen. Its
improvement speaks volumes for the

The second years possible returns he
put at 1885 for alfalfa and $3.50 for corn

The above is low estimate of two
staple crops. If fruit raising ia attempt
ed of course there will be no return for
about three years, but the ultimate profit
will be much larger.
Mr.. g. O. Shields, the immigration COM
missioner of the Pecos Irrigation & I'm

furnish further information. He has in
his Office at Eddy specimen growths.
Among them raisin grape vine which
grew sixteen feet nine inches in one year,
a Mission grape vine that grew eighteen
feet and one inch, an apple tree growth OF
four feet nine inches, plum tree growth
of eight feet one inch, a peach tree growth
of seven feet two inches.

the Chisum and Poe orchard near Roswell,

ty-four pounds; sweet potatoes weighing
five pounds ten ounces; sugar beets
weighing seventeen pounds four ounces.
ASTONISHING SUCCESSES.
There is probably no thrifty farmer in
the valley who has not had success that
would astonlsh the northern, western or
eastern agriculturist.
| A dozen items or SO, almost ut random,
will show the general drift:
i Thomas Stokes, of Eddy, raised eleven
tons of sorghum (hay) on less than two
acres of new ground, which product he
sold at $15 ton, the cash yield being
over $S3 an acre.
Julian Smith, of Eddy, sold in nine
months of 1892, over $500 worth of gar
den produce from half an acre of ground,
and had 400 pounds of potatoes left.
R. NJ. Gilbert, of Seven Rivers, Eddy
, county, planted in the spring Of '91, one
acre of Irish potatoes and gave them no

ROSWELL.
Chaves county is no less import
ant than Eddy as factor in the
Pecos valley. All general descriptions
heretofore apply equally to both. Ros-
well is the county scat of Chaves, and is
surrounded by much older settlement
and more picturesque country than Eddy.
It was settled in 1875 and it is pros
porous, pretty and very interesting town.
It has many orchards and the fruit raised
there is tino, luscious and plentiful. 1t is
steadily increasing in population and
growing in prosperity and Importance
It connects with the city of Eddy by a
telephone and telegraph line ninety
miles in length. Ancient cotton,
woods and extensive orchards lend
settled look to it. One great adj
vantage it has over the lower country il
that artesian water in light flows can bt
had comparatively easily. The following
gentlemen have wells that have been care
fully measured:
Jaffa g. Prayer: Depth, 207 feet; l 4
inch pipe; flow, 21a gallons per minute.
Main Street: Depth, 1866 feet; ls.incl
pipe; flow, very slow.

n Washington Lightweight Goes
Against the Boston Boy.
WASHINGTON. April 29.-Billy Young,
the well-known lightweight of this city,
stood up before Champion Feather
weight George Dixon four rounds last
night for small purse. The setto ere
ated great excitement and its cOnclu-
sion was marked by a general row.
Dixon, in his confidence i'll his ability to
put Young Out before the four rounds
were over, had waived everything. This
gave Young an opportunity to meet the
champions rushes with his elbow, which
he did with great advantage to himself
and great aggravation to Dixon. AS the
fight progressed the yellS and shouts of
the great crowd in the house drowned
out the voices of the referee and time
keepers, and when the timekeepers an
nounced the end of the fourth round,
with Young still in the ring. the
din was so tremendous that no one
heard him. and Dixon kept on
hammering as viciOuSly as mad dened
tiger. Referee Foley stepped in be-
tween the men, but DiXon's blood was
up. and he could not be stopped. Mana
ger O'Rourke then stepped into the
ring, and was followed by several 9TH
ers. By this time the excitement i'll the
audience was wild, and men began to
Chamber on the stage and over the ropes.
The police force present then proceeded
to enter into the fracas, the curtain was
dropped, and order soon restored. The
audience moved out slowly and fingered
around the entrance waiting to hear the
result of the dispute on the stage, which
had been snut off from view by the cur
hear the call of time, but did see the
sponge go up in DiXon's corner, and
that settled it. He admitted that Young
was still fighting. Manager O'Rourke
stated that Young was entitled to the
money, and it was paid to him.

CONCERNING THE COIN.
President Higinbotham Tells All
About the $4,000 Beauty.
Wyckoff, Seamans & Benedict
Chose This Method of Making
Contribution to the Fair
They Did Not Know
Mr.. Higinbotham
Wanted 1t.

To straighten out the apparent tangle
over the ownership of the $4,000 first
souvenir coin, reporter for The Trib-
une Yesterday asked President Higin-
botham for a statement of the facts in
the case. President Higinbotham took
the pains to make statement over his
signature, which is as follows:
TIP to Sept. 80, 1892, the highest bid
for the first coin was $1,000 or there
abouts. On that date Wyckoff, Sea-
mans 81 Benedict sent in their first and
only bid OF $4,000, accompanied by
certified check for that amount. On the
evening of the same day l had talk
with the Remington representative,
Mr. McClain, in regard to the matter. l
informed him that | had some time pre-
viousiy determined to have that coin re-
main in Chicago, and that | had prac-
tically committed myself to purchase it
for one of our public institutions; that
when did so L had no idea it would
bring any such figure. He explained
that of course the coin was not worth so
much money to any one; that their de-
sire was to contribute $4,000 to the
fair, and that they chose this unique
means in order to get the benefit of snch
publicity as might accrue; and that had
they known of my desire to secure the
III,
WhereupOn l suggested, as a means Of
satisfying all persons. that they buy the
coin for the amount stated, provided II o
one bids higher, and get all possible
benefit from it, and at the close of the
Exposition turn it over to me, to be
through me presented as a gift from
them to such public institution in the
City of Chicago as l might select. To
this Mr.. McClain unheSitatingly con-
sented, the understanding being that
was to do all in my power to the end
that Wyckoff, Seamans u Benedict
should get the fullest benefit from the
purchase of the coin and the subsequent
gift of the same.
Their bid was held from Sept. 90,
pending the possibility of a higher bid,
until Dec. z. on which date the finance
committee finally accepted it. Dec. 19
the coin was delivered to the Reming-
ton people. 1t is now their property,
and will so remain until the close of the
exposition, at which time it will be dealt
with as outlined above. Pending the
completion of permanent exhibiting
case, the coin now rests in safety de-
post vault, one key to which is held by
Mr.. McClain and the other by myself,
the object being to preserve beyond
question the identity OF the coin. These
are the facts. The coin purchase was
entirely Independent OF any other trans
action. The offer was made In good
faith, the money has been paid into the
exposition treasury, the coin has been
delivered, and Wyckoff, Seamans d
Benedict are entitled to the full credit
for this generous treatment of the eX-
position and their magnanimOus contrl.
