little pleasure trip taken recently, he
could not send in any items of inter-
est for the present week, but will en-
deavor to fill up the gaps in the future
az we'll as he is able under the circum-
stances.
J., visiting our neighboring town,
Durango, lately, we noticed several of
San Juan's citizens in business there
for the winter. Judge @. Dominguez
of the upper San Juan has opened up
feed corral and is dispo3ing of his
and his neighbors' produce on com.
1nissi IN. Parties here concluded that
they would bale their surplus hay and
haul it to Durango and place it in the
hands Of their own agent for disposal
instead of trusting to the markets or
outside commission men and they are
realizing the difference in the sale.
Enri9uez Manzanares is also on hand

bors' sErpIs commodities and pro.
ductions Of the upper San Juan valley.
Parties who do the delivering of the
products Of the farm to Durango re
turn with load of lumber, thus max
ing load both ways.
In these hard times it stands the
ranchmen in hand to cooperate and
economize and to keep clear of the
middlemen as much as possible.
On our return from Durango we
stopped for the night with our old
friend, Richard Ridenour, Who has a
nice ranch under the upper Animas
ditch above Cedar Hill. To say that
we were hospitality entertained docs
not state it, A few of his neighbors
came in and entertained US with mu
sic and singing until late bed time.
AS they had received the news that
we had just returned and brought
back with us our better half and as
she was just from the east, they wish.
ed to entertain us in Christian man.
ner. Our hostess and her companion
and family certainly understand
how to welcome new corners to
the far west.
We arrived back home Sunday at
nightfall and in the future will es here.
tofore entertain TO the best Of our
ability all weary pilgrims that chance
to come our way.
AS the season advances toward
spring, already emigrants are begin
ming to come to the sunny San Juan
seeking homes. A few more good To-
cations could be had by by enterpris-
ing persons Of pluck and energy who
would help improve the waste places
and would soon make the upper San
Juan as other portions of our county
blossom and fruit as a rose garden.

swer came Then again Mr.. Malone
Numbered out:
do you feel worse for having killed
Anna Kuhn than for having deserted
your wife and family in Ohio?
After more conclusive sobs the pris-
oner answered that he felt worse over
the killing. He did not wish 10 go back
TO his family in Ohio ''for there was
nothing there TO go back fol" Then
with great reluctance, on persistent
questions Of Mr. Malone, Rose testified
that his real name is Fleming. but that
he had gone by his middle name ever
since his arrival here, six years ago. He
did this, he said. because one of his boys
in Ohio wished 10 come out here ana ne
did not desire 10 be discovered
Rose said that he had cared every
thing for the Kuhn woman and had
small regard for his absent family. not
sending them a cent Of mis- earnings,
giving it all to his mistress here. He
had introduced the woman as his wife
long before he had news of his wife's
death year ago.
The trial will probably not come TO an
end before the close of the week.

HUNTING FOR THE HEALER

TO the News says:
Francis Schlatter is still very much
sought after individual There Is
scarcely a postmaster in Arizona and
New Mexico but who is in almost daily
receipt of letters making inquiries as
to his wherea bouts. The eastern news
papers, the scientific and religious pc
riodicals continue to earnestly discuss
the characteristics of the remarkable
man. The Chautauqua magazine and
the Medical Times of Philadelphia re-
Gently contained long articles about
him. Yesterday a letter came from no
less a parsonage that DR.. T. Griswold
Comstock Of St. Louis, one Of the
highest authorities in the west on hyp-
nosis, asking to be informed as To the
present wherea bouts of SchlaJter. This
is an oft repeated query that is diff
cult 10 answer. The last interview
that any resident of New Mexico had
with him was on January 80. Ten
days prior to that date he left solomon
Block, near Cebollema, Valencia coun-
ty, and started alone over the snow
covered mountain trail toward the
Mogollan mining camp in western So
zorro county. The Silver City papers
assert that he passed over the trail
in safety and went down the ella river
and is now 100 miles south of the San
Carlos Indian reservation in Arizona.
/ is hoped that these statements may
be verified for there is much quiet con-
Germ among people everywhere TO learn
the whereabouts now and the possible
plans for the future of this man.
