A May Day Suggestion.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Santa Fe, May l, 1885, "A Visitors"
excellent suggestions deserve more atten.
ton than fear they will attract in the
matter of street sprinkling. Allow me to
them with leaf out of nv
own book, that our friend may not be
discouraged if such common sense ideas
are not forthwith adopted. In certain
obscure little village, which shall be
nameless, have for more than twenty
years been advocating sprinkling the
every morning with saline so.
luton, having noticed that in the towns
on the coast single operation with water
from the adjacent ocean sufficed to sup
press the dust for the day. And now l
learn with very great satisfaction that
pipe lines are being laid from the coast
for the purpose of diurnal sprinkling of
inland places, where the righteous indig.
nation of the long soffering people has
at length swamped the contracting job.
bers. 1t is not possible that such good
example could be completely followed
here, but, II even weak solution of tho
very chea pest salt were sprinkled every
morning ON our road, the demon of dust
would be daily deposed, to our great and
,ndless comfort.
Respectfully yours,
CoME.To.STAY.

There has as yet been nothing further
heard from Billy Green. The dispatch
that was sent out to the Denver papers
that Mexican had found the bodies of
two men answering the description of
Green and his companion seems to have
no foundation to it, as Mrs. VIM. Green
wired the sheriff at Trinidad last even
ing, asking if any news had been re-
ceived of her husband, and the answer
came that there had nothing further been
heard, says the Optic. Beauregard Lee,
who came down from Trinidad. said that
Green and man by the name of W. J..
Kelly were hunting cattle thieves, and
that one of the men wanted had been
caught and lodged in jail, and that this
man had confessed that he had agreed
TO lead Green and Kelly to the hiding
place of his pals, and that the supposi-
tion in Trinidad is that he led them into
the clutches of his "gang" and they were
made away with. The Green family here
have heard nothing directly from Eli and
John Green and they are somewhat wor-
ried over the thought that they too have
been led into tie clutches of the ut.laws,
adds the Optic.

PERALTA-REAVIS NERVE.
The Great Grant Claimants Game
Behind the Bars.

In the course of an interesting article
on the Peralta grant case, for which j. A.
Reavis is to be- criminally prosecuted
here at next months term of the U. s.
district court, the Washington CORE
spondent of the Globe Democrat says:
The Baron of Arizona is game. He
waits in the penitentiary at Santa Fe for
the coming trial of indictments enough
to make him, on conviction, ''lifer" if
he had as many years before him as
Methuselah enjoyed. There is no sign of
weakening Cd his part since he has
learned that he is to be prosecuted to the
bitter end. He sits in the prison room
and calmnly says:
"Over and over again l have been ap-
preached by the friends of this court of
private land claims and by the friends of
the men who are prosecuting me now and
been told that money will fix it,"
And then with an cir of simple honesty
that would convince to elect he adds:
"Now i want to say that in all the
years l have fought to establish this
grant have never paid to any man or
any official wrongly, or with the intent to
induce them to do wrong, enough
money to make wrapper for my little
finger"
His whole case has been swept away by
an exhaustive investigation. Years of
time, hundreds of dollars in money, the
best efforts of talented lawyers have been
given to the governments defense against
this claim of 100000 acres of the best
land of Arizona. There never was fraud
attempted on the government more CON-
pletely exposed. Ia this result, Mr..
Oney, who pressed and encouraged the
work from the time he entered the cabinet
as attorney general, finds great satlsfac'
ton. Yet Reavis never wavers.

In THE DISTRICT COURT.
verdict for the Plaintiff in White Ash
Coal Mine Disaster Case-Dam-
ages Assessed at S25,OOO-
Criminal Cases Pending.

At the conclusion of Judge Laughlin's
lengthy charge in the case of Josephine
Deserant, Administrative, against the Ger
rillos Coal Railroad company, the jury
retired to the consultation room about
O'clock last evening. After being ont
about forty minutes, the jury returned
with verdict in favor of the plaintiff
and assessed her damages at $4,000.
Mr.. Twitchell, attorney for the defendant
c mpany, then made the usual motion to
set aside the verdict and grant a new
trial. If this motion is denied, it is pre-
sumed that the case will be appealed to
the territorial supreme court.
This is one of the most i'm portant
cases every tried before jury in Santa
Fe county. 1t grew out of the White Ash
coal mine disaster, on February 81, 1895,
wherein twenty-fonr coal miners lost
their lives, the husband and two sons of
the plaintiff being among the number,
and the vital question at issue was wheth-
er or not the deplorable accident was
reasonably attributable to negligence on
part of the company or its agents. The
jury answered the question In the affirma-
tive, and found that the plaintiff was en-
titled to recover $1,000 on account of the
loss of her husband, SD years of age, and
$4,000 each on account of the death
of her sons, Henry and Julius, respective
ly II and Is years old.
The trial of the cause occupied eight
days and all who are in position to
judge agree that it was vigorously and
ably conducted by Messrs. Field and
Clancy for the prosecution and Mr..
Twitohell for the Defense Experienced
lawyers say that, although the verdict was
adverse to his client, the latter did all
that was possible to secure different re-
suit.
There are seven more cases similar to
the one just tried on the docket of the
district court, but they will hardly DO
reached during this term.
Prom pity at 8 O'Clock this morning
Judge Laughlin began work on the pend
ing criminal cases. The first one of these
called was the territory against Thomas
Denny, in Jail under an indictment for
the larceny of articles from the Claire
cafe valued at 500.
The case was given to the jury at noon
and at the incoming of court this after
noon verdict of guilty was returned and
assessed the value Of the goods stolen at
$22.50, thus making it petit larceny and
not punishable by incarceration in the
penitentiary.
The case Of the Territory against John
Oliver, colored, charged with murder
Gus assault on Joseph Anderson, was at
once called for trial. A special venire has
been issued to complete the jury, many
having been disqualified by service in the
former trial.

Eloquent and Impressive.

The Ration Range remarks: The ad-
dress of Hon. Thomas Smith, chief justice
of New Mexico, last Friday evening at the
G. A. R. camp fire, was one of the most
eloquent and impressive efforts ever
listened to by Ration audience. Although
the judge fought CALAMITY on the other
side during the late war, he is an Amer
lean and patriotic citizen of this great
republic and his love of country is worthy
the emulation of all loyal citizens.
