Governor Thornton appointed J.. II.
Crist, Of Santa Ee, district attorney for
that judicial district last Saturday.

removed. II is believed that tho remov-
al Of other republican district attorneys

management Of the Graphic mine on

1t is thought that the Montana tun-
mel at Pinos Altos is nearly TO tho vein.
Last week the water in the tunnel in
creased considerably. This is an indioa-
ton that the vein is not far away.
There is not water enough TO supply the
company's twenty stamp mill but the
supply may increase when tho vein is
struck. It is possible that the water
which has been encountered in the tun-
mel is from the upper workings Of the
mine. TT it is there is little hope Of get
ting water enough at the mine to supply
the mill. II sufficient water could be
found at the mine to keep the mill run
ming the company could save a large
amount annually by moving the mill to
Pinos Altos, thus saving the expense Of
hauling the ore. 1t has been more than
a year since the company was reorgan-
lied and work has been going on ia the
tunnel most Of the time since the reor-
ganization. Eight assessments Of half a.
cent a share have been levied 10 pay for
work il the tunnel and other current ex-
penses Of the company which have been
more than the cost Of the tunnel.
Another train load Of cattle was ship
ped from this place yesterday.
The residence Of j. w. Marshall, neal
Deming, was destroyed by fire last week
The loss was about $1,000. No insurance
The Deming fire department will give
a ball at the opera house there for the
benefit Of the department on the 16tt
inst.
There is very little danger that the
rates to the Worlds fair will be raised
but it is more than likely that there
will be further reductions before the
close Of the fair.
Elections were held yesterday to cheos'
school directors in all school districts in
this county expect the Independent dis.
trict of Silver City. The directors are all
chosen for the term of one year.
The last Of the series Of musicaleE
given by Mrs. Davenport and her pupils
took place on Saturday evening an6
proved to be a regular musical treat t.
the many friends OF the performers VIII,
we're present. 1t was by far the best o
these pleasant Entertainments, and wa
the strongest possible evidence Of tn
thoroughness Of the training Of the per
formers and of the rapidity with whicI
they have been advancing in their stnd
les. The first piece of the evening which
gave SO much pleasure will be remem
bered by those who we're present at Fat
initza a few weeks ago as the solo, teno
song which was so enthusiastically re
ceived and encored then. The musica
charade with which the evening term
mated was most amusing and excellent
