JOHN II. NUDGE, Agent.
The board of County commissioners
viii meet next Monday in regular ses-
sion.
Owen L. Scott has been appointed
notary public for this County.
There we're but few residents Of Silver
City in attendance at the Territorial
fair at Albuquerque last week.
Prof Manzo gave a parlor entertain
ment at the Thinner house last Thurs
day evening. There were quite num-
Der present.
A water pipe burst on Ninth street
Thursday afternon and the water supply
was cut off from down town customers
until the pipe was replaced.
Most Of the delegates who we're ap-
pointed TO attend the statehood conven.
ton at Albuquerque from this place
failed to go to Albuquerque last week.
]. H. Bragaw, Of Georgetown, is gong
to start o branch stere at Gold Hill
where he is interested in a mining and
milling enterprise.
L. A. Skelly will go to the Mogollons
next week with big tent and his photo
graph outfit. He expects to stay there
for some tune taking pictures.
The exhibits at the Territorial fair at
Albuquerque last week were not so large
as they have been in years past, but what
was lacking in the exhibits was made up
in the racing.
A car load of articles which had been
exhibited at the Territorial fair was ship
ped from Albuquerque TO the Columbian
exposition last Friday. This was the
last car load OF New Mexico artiole3 to
go 10 the fair.
Yom Kippur, the Jewish day Of atone
ment, was duly observed by the Jewish
residents of this city. Their stores were
closed until six o'clock in the evening on
Wednesday Of last week.
Fort Bayard will be supplied with 500
tons Of native hay this year. For the
past few years the post has been sup
piled with hay from Kansas because it
could not be obtained here.
The Knights Of Pythias are making
extensive preparations at Beming for a
grand parade during the session of the
irrigation convention there in Novem-
ber.
A construction train has been at
work on the track below town the
past week strengthening the weak places
with rock so that the floods next season
will not do so much damage to the track
as they did this year.
This years crop of native hay is already
on the market and the supply in this
County bids fair to equal the demand.
This will keep good many thousand
dollars in this County which would be
sent to outside points for hay.
Preparations are being made to give
the opera entitled Patience in this city
at an early day. Several operas have
been given in this place by local talent
and each one was a pronounced success.
Patience will be given under the direc
tion of Verne l. Brado and it promises
to be a most pronounced success.
A few of the residents Of Deming are
advocating incorporation for that town.
A majority Of the property owners there
however, are opposed to incorporation
on the ground that it would increase
the rate of taxation which is already
high enough.
Sheriff Lard will offer ali real estate
in the County upon which the taxes for
the years 1891 and 1892 have not been
paid, for sale for taxes at the court house
next Monday. The amount of delinquent
taxes Is hardly as large as usual.
Grass in many parts of the County is
knee high and it will not be many days
before the seed will be ripe. With time
ly rains for the next two months and a
goodsrainy season next year the ranges
in this part of New Mexico will be as
good as they ever were.
Until within the past few weeks the
residents of New Mexico have been eat
ing lean beef for a long time but now
the meat which is being sold here is all
that could be desired. There are very
few thin cattle on the ranges now and
the losses this winter will be lighter than
they have been for a number OF years
past.
The prospects ARD pretty good for some
of the big base ball clubs to come out
here to spend the winter. If the base
ballists ever find out what delightful
weather we have during the winter sea-
son there will be no keeping them away
from New Mexico.
Heavy shipments of goods to the Mog-
ollons continue. That camp takes more
