ACITY IMPROVEMENTS.
Soma information Relative to the Sub
ject sf Enlarged Water and Street
\ Lighting Service.

MANY citizens were heard to-day e1-
pressing their qualification over the action
of the city council in reference to i'm
proved water and street lighting service,
though some confusion exists in the pub
lie mind through an error in figures which
crept into the report of the council pro-
ceedings as published yesterday. The APP
preparation for the coming year for the
water service is $1,000. This contem-
plates the payment of $65 per month for
each of the twenty-five hydrants now in
use and provides water for the plaza free
Of charge if "lawn sprinklers" are used
instead of following the old plan of
flooding. The estimate is on the old
contract with the water company.
The city is pledged, however, to
mako at no distant day new
contract whereby it will pay $50 month
for the use of forty fire hydrants-the fit
teen new ones to be distributed on the
south side of the city as soon as the big
reservoir is ready for use. when this
new contract is made the city must look
we'll to the care of the plaza. Ere that
time comes, it is possible that the water
company will make proposition to citi-
zens looking to cooperative movement
having for it's object the improvement
and identifying of the plaza.
One new item in the appropriation bill
is $3.50 for street sprinkling. At So a
day this would cover a period of about
four months, but as the rainy season
comes on in July there will be number
of days when the streets will. require no
wetting down. When contract is made
it should be arranged SO that the city
marshal shall keep record of the num-
Der of days the sprinkling cart is in use,
and on days that it rains no sprinkling
should be done. Thus the appropriation
CT $3.50 can be made to cover nearly if
not quite period of six months.
As to street lights, the new contract
provides for four arc lights on the plaza
and very material extension of the in
candescent system throughout the city,
including south side points. Having
finally secured this contract the Electric
company will proceed at once to enlarge
its plant, expending some $4,000 in i'm
provements.

to reach New Mexico some time in April
on his way to the Pacific coast, and has
promised to attend the New Mexico de-
partment encampment on his way west.

SENTENCED TO HANG.
Justice Loses No Time in Dealing with
the Murderer of Young
Sam Steel.

John Roper, the cowboy who two weeks
ago shot and killed young Sam Steel, at
Las Cruces, was on Tuesday afternoon
sentenced by Judge Seeds to be hanged
on Tuesday April 1S-and in case of ap-
peal and the supreme. court sustains the
findings in the lower court, then August
30, is the day set for the execution of the
sentence.
Judge Seeds returned home from Las
Cruces last evening. The trial lasted
nearly week. Some eighteen witnesses
were examined by the prosecution and
five or six for the defense. While purely
circumstantial, the evidence seems to
have been such as to satisfy the judge
and jury that Roper was guilty beyond
any question of doubt. The accused at
tempted to prove no alibi, but admitted
that he was on the road in the vicinity of
the place where Steel was killed at the
time the pistol shot was heard. "The
prisoners story was not the frank state
ment that man would make who had
been falsely accused of such crime"
says Judge Seeds, sit was guarded at
every point, and carefully guarded"
The jury was out about fourteen hours.
In everything a motion for a new trial
the court said: 1.-THE excitement prevail
ing in this community, as shown by vari-
Gus af1idavits, was adverse to fair trial;
and no Judge could have refused to grant
change of venue had it been asked for
at the proper time; but the case having
been submitted for trial, and having been
heard, it is now too late to consider the
matter of change of venue"
In selecting the day of execution Judge
Seeds said he named Tuesday because he
was opposed to any "Back Friday
superstition, and thought Tuesday or any
other week day as good as Friday for the
execution of murderers.
The supreme court meets on the last
Monday in July and this will probably be
the first case considered.
