Webster High School.
A committee OF the school board, a

A committee OF the school board. APP
pointed to investigate the condition OF
the school and recommend any desired
change in methods or teachers, will re-
port at a meeting OF the board tomorrow
evening and their actions will doubtless
be confirmed by that body.
One Of the committee informs us that
they were agreeably surprised with the
fine condition in which everything APP
pertaining to the school vas found, as
there had been some fault found with
the manner in which the school was con-
Quoted during the past year. Since visit
ing the school, he is satisfied that the
complaints came from persons who are
not conyersant with the and
methods by which the schools have been
| operated-in other words, by persons
not knowing what they We're talking
about, having never visited this great
institution of learning.
The committee found everything in the
best possible shape, each department
being conducted by the most approved
method, and recommend all who have
| any doubts as to the manner in which
our school is being conducted to visit 1t
and Judge fer themselves, feeling sure
tn at a personal inspection will satisfy
the most critical.
Our informant was verycomplimentary
to Mr.. Rock and says he never saw such
perfect government or more thorough,
practical methods in ascbool-room; that
the interest displayed by pupils from the
largest to the smallest, is something
wonderful and shows the teachers have
the confidence and respect OF the scholars
together with a happy faculty to incite
them to their utmost efforts, otherwise
result could not be possible.
A new course OF study has been adopt
ed, introducing scientific, classical and
chemistry courses, making a ten instead
of an eight year course and fitting grad
yates from the Webster high school for
college without further preparation,
or giving them q useful practical educa-
ton sufficient for the ordinary walks OF
life. Scholars in this vicinity wishing to
enter the higher institutions OF learning,
can attend this school at a nominal tu-
ition, making it convenient by being
near home and saving great expense in
travelling to and from school and in
many other particulars.
Webster school in the future will rank
among the first in the state and every
citizen should be proud OF it.

any common, everyday bite either, but
one with an iron frame and several
stories that jerked him out OF the boat.
The fish-line was tied to his wrist but he
was saved from a watery grave by cut
ting it. The fish, OF course, was the big
gest ever caught in this country, but he

RANGE CATTLE COMING.
The Petaca Grant Leased for Ten
Years and $4,000 Head Of Stock
to be Driven In.

Mr.. W. H. Denton, of Markham, l. t.,
has leased the Petaca grant for term of
ten years and will Immediately ship his
$4,000 head of cattle to Las Vegas and
from there he will drive them to the
grant. He will bring twenty families
with him aside from his cowboys. There
are 100000 acres in the Petaca grant and
the property is owned by exCongressman
Farwell, of Iowa. The grazing priv
ilege alone is covered by the lease.
Mr.. Denton has spent the past two weeks
examining the property and he pronoun-
ces the range first-class. 1t is probable
also that he will take lease for ten
years on the Valecito grant near the
Petaca property, and which contains l44,-
600 acres. He says the rapid settlement
of the Indian territory and the policy of
the government in sub dividing the great
grazing areas and alloting it in severalty
to the Indians is going to work decided
change in the range cattle industry of
that section, and his idea is that many
cattlemen now there will soon seek to
lease grazing lands in New Mexico and
bring in their stock, thereby adding
largely to taxable values of this territory.
