TWAS A HOWLER.
The Worst Blizzard in the History of
Southern New MexicO-TWO
Men Frozen to Death.

A heavy snow storm ragged Tuesday
evening at Ell Paso, in the Mesilla valley,
and north on the tornado del Muerto, as
far north as San Marcial. In some places
the snow was six to fifteen inches deep,
which is very unusual and heavy snow
fall for southern New Mexico. The cold
winds followed and brought on a regular
blizzard. The mining camps were the
worst sufferers by heavy SHOWS. In Silver
City the "beautiful" fell to the depth of
nearly three feet. The division of the
Santa Fe extending from Rincon to Silver
City was blocked for several hours on
Thursday by heavy drifts in the cuts be-
tween Sellers and Mutt stations.
Two deaths have already been reported
from the effects of the blizzard.
Mark and Mart Wilson, freighters en-
ployed in hauling ore from the Cooks
Peak mining district, Grant county,
to Florida station, on the Santa Fe, we're
found frozen stiff within few miles of
their home ut noon on Thursday. The
two were brothers. They had evidently
abandoned their teams and attempted to
reach the mining camp by riding on
mules, but being overcome by the ter
rible cold sought refuge under an am
bankment near the road, and froze to
death. Mart Wilson was actually frozen
while standing upright, and the body was
discovered in a position as If the un-
fortunate man had started to walk. A
man who accompanied them narrowly es-
capped similar death, and only reached
camp after the utmost hardships. 1t is
feared that other deaths will be reported,
az the storm was of such force and the
cold SO severe that it was impossible to
live on the plains.

COUNCIL.
xrsrrRpAY,s AFTERNOON SESSION.

/
The council met at 2 p. m. and resumed
the consideration of council substitute
for C. B. Nos. so, "a and S8, entitled an
act to change the name of the New Mex
leo cattle sanitary board, and for other
purposes.
Mr.. Martinez moved to amend section
30 by inserting provision that the live
stock sanitary board should circulate
sufficient number of copies of the
Compiled Stock Laws, to be print
ed in English and Spanish, for the
use and information of stock grow
ers, which was adopted. Some
| further amendment was made to the bill
of an unimportant character, except one
offered by Mr.. Veeder, which provides
that the live stock sanitary board shall
consist of five persons two of whom shall
| be practical cattle raisers, two practical
sheep men and one property owner not
directly interested in either the cattle or
the sheep industry, which was adopted.
The bill was extensively debated, but q
lack of space forbids the publication of
the remarks. The vote on the passage of
the bill was as follows:
Ayes: Burns, Hubbell Martinez, Pine,
Saint, Veeder, and the president.
Mes: Fall, Hall, Patterson, Sanchez,
Valverde.
So the bill passed.
On motion of Mr.. Patterson, substitute
| for G. r. No. 81 was made special order
Tor Saturday morning after the reading
of the journal; and the council then adj
journed until 1880.

nous consent the president introduced O.
J. resolution No. 16, providing that the
sum of $4,000 be appropriated out of the
funds of the 44th fiscal year to suitably
entertain the Colorado assembly.
The resolution was read a first and Sec
ond time under suspension of the rules.
| Mr.. Fall then moved to amend the reso-
luton by striking out $4,000 and insert
ing in lieu thereof $4,000; and on this
question the vote resulted in ayes and
noes.
The resolution was then read third
time, and on motion Of Mr.. Sanchez the

BEETLES WITH SEARCH LIGHTS
Hotel Guests Astonished at Sight of
the CucujO of Central America

A young Mexican, earring a perfor-
ated tin box which resembles an old
fashioned latern, strolled along West
Fifty ninth street one evening recently
and stopped in front of the Hotel
Pomeroy, says New York Times.
From this tin lantern came a beauti-
full yellowish green light, such as no
candle could possibly give.
A number of gentlemen were sitting
the lantern stepped up to them and
said:
Mexican bugs, Sirs Fifteen cents
apiece, two for a quarter"
He then threw back his coat and dis
closed several large beetles secured to
his vest by light threads tied about
their bodies.
Each beetle carried two powerful
sea1ch-Iights on the dorsal surface of
it's thoraX, placed so as to throw the
light directly in front of it's eyes.
When the beetles were left undisturb-
ed for a little while, the light dwindled
away to a mere point, but it gloWed
again when they were touched with
the finger.
The tin box contained fully fifty
more specimens. 1t was their cOmbin-
ed light which Illuminated the novel
lantern
The young Mexican took several of
the beetles from the box and made
them parade up and down the walk to
display their lights to better advantage.
At the same time their cousins the
firefiies were glowing among the trees
over the Central park.
The boy called the beetle cucujo.
The sale was rapid, and soon every
one was asking how long they would
live and what to feed them on.
''Give them ripe fruit" the boy said,
''and they will live till cold weather
comes" He explained further that his
uncle had brought 600 UP from the
South to sell in New York and Chicago
The beetle is the Pyrophorus noctil-
ucus of Central America and the West
Indies. 1t belongs to the family of the
elaterdae.
1T is called cucujo, fire beetle, and
spring beetle. The last name refers to
it's power to throw itself by a quick
movement of its spine to its feet when
it is placed on it's back.
The light comes from two oval tu-
bercles on the dorsal surface of the
thoraX and from the under surface of
the segments of the body.
In the southern countries the natives
some times use them as ornaments for
the hair. They are also confined in
glass vessels and are actually used to
light rooms A single beetle, if held
close to the page, will enable one to
read fine print

Denver, Col, Aug. 26.-The case of

issued by the governor of Wisconsin.
came before Judge Rucker this morning
in the shape Of a demurrer by the
prisoner kOetting's attorney held
that all the papers in the case were
illegally drawn and worthless.
First, the governor of Colorado in is
suing his warrant did 50 in the name
OF the executive of the state of Colo
RADIO" instead of the name of the
people of Colorado" as should have
been done; second, the governor of
Wisconsin, in issuing the warrant of
arrest, failed to state on its face that
William NcManus had been appointed
the agent of the state to convey the
prisoner to Milwaukee, consequently
McManus had no right to Koetting I'M
Ger any circumstances.
The Wisconsin executive also failed
to state on the face of the warrant a
copy OF the Indictment against Koetting
or Il recital of the crime with which
he is charged or that Koetting had fed
from justice, all or either Of which
according to the statutes, were fatal
errors
The state fought these points but the
judge quickly sustained the demurrer
upon it's first point regarding the gov
ernor of Colorado. The state asked
leave to amend their warrant, which

If the court on Monday decides for
the state, Col. Rogers will again apply
for a release on the errors in the Wis
