GOLDEN AMIZETT.
Glowing Reports from the Great Min
ing Camp of Northern
New Mexico.

Gerson Gusdorf, the active and enter
prlsing young manager of the general
store of Gusdorf Brothers at Amizett,
paid a business visit to the capital yes
terday. OF course he called upon his
friends connected with the new manage
ment of the New MEXICAN, and his enthu-
siastic words of congratulation over the
"new departure" were as gratifying to
the writer as they were evidently sin
cere.
Mr.. Gusdorf has heen constantly en-
gagged in business and mining at Amizett
since the discovery of gold there in July,
and he does not hesitate to predict that
this camp has great future before it.
At present about 200 people are en-
ployed in the district and new corners
are daily swelling the number. Develop
ment work is being earnestly pushed on
the Gold King, Navajo, Berry and Lillian
claims, located on Gold Hill, and all are
showing we'll. Atunnel has been driven
$50 feet on the Gold King and contract
has been let for 100 feet more. This is
the Oldest location in the camp and is
furnishing sufficient free milling gold
rock to keep the five-stamp mill on the
ground in operation day and night. The
ore SO far run through has netted $40 per
ton, but, as careful tests recently made
in Denver and Pueblo have shown from
$40 to $496, it is believed that the mill
will disclose better results in future.
Mr.. Gusdorf has just returned from
Denver, whittier he went to confer with
his associates in the Navajo, and, while in
town, he received news that five foot
vein of honey -combed quartz had been
struck in the 100 foot tunnel now being
driven on the property. Consequently
he could not be persuaded to remain with
us longer than till the hour fixed for the
departure of the morning train over the
narrow gauge.

was experienced and all wished many
happy New Years to the college and all
its members.
Mr.. W. NJ. Upton, special agent of the
U. S. court of private land claims, ran
over to San Francisco from Tucson the
other day and was nabbed by reporter
of the San Francisco Chronicle for q half
column interview, in which the special
agent talked very entertainingly of ex-
Gov, Lew Wallace and his literary labors
in the old government palace. Says the
Chronicle: "Mr. Upton says that most
of the grants, so far as have come to his
knowledge, are really genuine, and that
only few of them are fraudulent. He
says most of the people of New Mexico
are anxious for the admission of the terri
tory as state. They believe it will be
admitted this winter"

NEW YEARS GREETINGS.
Santa Fe Did Herself Proud Yester-
day in a Revival Of the Good
Old Custom.

As pre- dicted in these columns few
days ago, there was general revival of
the historic custom of receiving and max
ing New Year calls in this city yesterday.
In most of the homes where society holds
forth the day was observed with all the
niceties incident to the occasion. The
blinds were down and lights we're up.
Unstinted hospitality and good cheer
reigned supreme. The ladies were attired
in full evening dress, and were radiant
and beautiful, as matter of course.
As a rule coffee and bouillon constituted
the liquid element on the refreshment
list; indeed, the absence of other liquors
was remarked and favorably commented
upon by many. There were seventy-five
or eighty gentlemen who made formal
calls and about forty ladies received.
From 2 to p. m. was the popular hour.
At the governors home Mrs. Thornton
was assisted by Mesdames R. j. Palen,
G. M. Shannon, E. L. Bartlett, E. L. Hall,
John Symington and E. p. Money. The
two front parlors were bowers of floral
beauty, in which roses, chrysanthemums,
real English holly and mistletoe were
blended in the happiest effects, and in
the dining hall nothing was emitting to
make the occasion enjoyable. At Col.
Pearson's quarters the day was observed
amid grace and beauty and good cheer,
Mrs. Pearson being assisted in receiving
by Mrs. I. W. Littell, Miss Gulliford, Miss
Butler and Miss Sauerwein.
The mansion of Mr.. A. Staab was ablaze
with lights and shades of floral beau
ty and the dainty luncheon served
here by the Misses Staab, chaperoned by
Mrs. Ilfeld, was greatly enjoyed. Mrs.
L. Bradford Prince, who has always been
devotee to the customs of this day, was
assisted by Mrs. j. P. Kimball, Mrs. j. T..
Kirkman and Miss Sol1gnac, and from 2
o'clock until near midnight callers were
entertained. Mrs. W. H. Keller, assisted
by Mrs. VIM. Craig, the Misses Baker and
her daughters, Mrs. J. H. Sloan, Mrs. Val
entine Carson and the Misses Keller, kept
open house all the afternoon and evening,
and the bevy of beautiful ladies here
made this home favorlte attraction.
At the residence of Mr.. johnson, Mr.. Geo.
A. johnson served luncheon during the
afternoon to some fifteen friends and a
delightful session was passed. At St.
Vincent sanitarium parlors thelady guests
received many visitors during the day,
and at numerous other places there we're
inequalities suitable to the event. In
the evening Mr.. and Mrs. Crist served a
dinner party to number of invited
guests.

The Chama Gold Fields.

David Allen, one of the pioneers of the
Chama river placer mining district.
dropped in to town yesterday with good
news from his district. He reports that
the new Bucyrus mill has been in opera
ton for some days on gravel that pans
80 cents per yard, and, while no clean up
has been made, enough is known to prove
the success of the experiment. Careful
panning has established the fact that
nothing comes out in the tailings. The
company is 80 we'll satisfied that another
mill has been ordered from Milwaukee
and will arrive on the ground in March.

A journalistic Observation.

Hawthorne, of the Albuquerque Times,
writes a very sensible and truthful
article for that paper on the unreason-
able practices of societies and associations
in New Mexico, demanding space in news
papers for all kinds of meetings without
compensation. From our observation
and experience this is as much the fault
of the newspapers" as the people. In
eastern cities the newspapers are not e1-
pected and are not asked to contribute
valuable space for the benefit of any as
ISOLATION or individual without pay. In
this territory experienced newspaper
people are often-times forced by circum-
stances, created by the cobhlers in the
profession, to ignore the we'll grounded
rules gof the business and conform to
distasteful and unbusiness like customs.
