AN ALLEGED SHORTAGE.
County Public School Funds to the
Amount of 81 900 Said to
Be Missing.

County School Superintendent Juan j.
Ortiz has discovered that there is dis
crepancy of about $1,000 between the
books of the County School Supt. Brother
Botulph, whom he succeeded, and the
books of the ex-county treasurer, Gavino
Ortiz. The latter insists that his accounts
for the years 1891 and 1892 are all right
but according to the school superinten,
dents records there is a shortage OF
some $1,000 for those years. The two
school districts affected are Nos, and 1
upper and lower Santa Fe, outside of the
incorporated limits of the city.
Supt. Ortiz yesterday called upon Dis
tr1ct Attorney Crlst on this bject, made
statement to the above effect and re-
quested that the matter be officially ex,
amined into. The district attorney will
next week 60 over the records, and if any
shortage is discovered the facts will be
laid before the grand jury and suits in
stituted to recover the money from the
bondsmen of the official who shall be
found to have been responsible for the
amount in arrears.

A San Juan XiaitOr.

F. V. Williams, farmer on the upper
La Plata, San Juan county, arrived here
by team yesterday bringing his daughter
aged 10, whom he has placed in the terri
torial school for the deaf, dumb and blind
Mr.. Williams daughter is deaf and par.
TALLY dumb. Heexpresses surprise that
articulation is not part of the curriculum
of this institution, and hopes for the
benefit of this class OF unfortunates that
the next Legislative assembly will foster
the school to this extent.
Speaking of San Juan county, Mr.
Williams said the hard times had been
felt, to be sure, as Colorado affords them
a fine market ordinarily, but abundant
crops of hay, grain and fruit and fat live
stock would see the people through in
very good shape until spring, when the
new irrigation enterprises and cheap
lands are expected to bring large i'm
migration.

A VISITORS VIEWS.
Mr.. Gulliford Inspects the Big Reser-
vOir and Commends the ST.
periOrity of the Great
Work.
To the Editor of the New Mexican:

To the Editor of the New Mexican:
Santa Fe, Nov. 24.-Will you allow me
to record in your go-ahead journal my
impressions of the work going on in the
mountains in connection with the water
supply of the city, By the courtesy Of
the energetic manager, l have just en-
joyed most delightful and instructive
visit to. the new reservoir now in course
of construction After pretty drive,
which would have restored vitality to a
WORKOUT dudepso bracing was the air OF
the mountains, we arrived at the great
embankment, splendid work indeed. A
very careful examination of the meth DDS
employed, most inte]ligently explained
by Mr.. Day ana Mr.. Brady, conyinces me
that if equal skill and care had been dis
played at Holinfirth and Johnstown, En-
gland and America would not have had to
lament the disasters caused by those ter
rible floods, which devastated 80 many
happy homes.
Your charming and piquant city, de.
serving much wider renown, with its pure
and exhilerating air, majestic mountains
gorgeous sunsets and Respondent nights
has still higher claim to the admiration OF
the world in the enterprise of its citizens
who are building this reservoir, work
which will favorably compare with the
marvellous tanks of India and Ceylon, the
wonder and blessing of the ages. Re-
spectfully yours, W. H. GuLL1FoRD.

NEVER PROSPECTED.
That's What an Obseryant Writer Has
to Say About the Mountains Adj
.iacent to Santa Fc.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Santa Fe, Nov. 23.--I note in recent
issue of the New MEXICAN an item rela-
tive to the interest displayed by prospec-
tors in the Santa Fe mountains just at
present, but it is to be inferred from the
article that you believe these mountains
have been prospected. know that There is
a popular belief here that this region was
years ago searched over for mineral by
the early Spanish explorers; how often
have we heard it remarked: "Oh, there
is no mineral in the Santa Fe range, else
it would have been found ages ago at the
same time that the old placers gold fields
were discovered"
In my opinion this is incorrect. The
early Spaniards were too easily satisfied
gets out of the sands about San Pedro
to do much prospecting for leads north
and east of Santa Fe, and in fact, it is
doubtful if this region was ever subject
ed to anything like systematic pros
pecting.
1t is not improbable that this range of
mountains now stands chance, owing to
the influx of miners from the north, for
it's first thorough exploration at the
hands of intelligent prospectors, and it is
quite probable, in view of the Breeden
gold strike near Monument rock and the
character of the float picked up lately in
other parts of the range, that permanent
ore bodies will be discovered.
