CATRON CALLS FOR HELP.
Certain Citizens Take a Magnanim0us
View of the BFice Bond
Amendment.

! 1t is said Delegate Catron yesterday adj
vised several citizens by letter that Sen
ator Brice had, metaphorically speaking,
donned his war paint and had declared
that, unless the amendment designed to
validate the $172,50O county bonds issued
in aid of the Texas, Santa Fe & Northern
road was accepted, he, Brice, would fight
New Mexico to the death on every propo-
sition coming before congress; would use
his influence to kill the bill approving
the issue of bonds for territorial institu-
tions-the capitol, asylum, normal school
and military academy bonds-and would
also oppose statehood. This latter sounds
like joke.
However, Brlce is pretty successful
buffer, and Immediately npon receipt of
this news there was meeting of a num-
Der of citizens at Gen. Bartett's office.
Among those said to have been present
were Messrs. Staab, Eldodt, Schumann,
Cartwright, Webber, Downs, Knaebel,
Palen, Harroun, Bartlett and others.
Tie situation was discussed at some
length and as result telegram
was drawn up and signed and sent
to Delegate Catron last night. Its
purport is to the effect that these citizens
of Santa Fe county believe the question
as to the validity of the bonds should
be left in justice to the taxpayers here
for the courts to decide, but, rather than
jeopardize the interests OF the whole ter
ritory, and especially those territorial in.
situations the bond issue is designed to
benefit, it would be best to accept the
Brice amendment than to have the whole
measure defeated.
In other words, these residents of Santa
Fe are magnanimous enough to permit
congress to try its hand at validating
these, and possibly, The Coler bonds,
amounting in all to $434 900, rather than
stand in the way of New Mexico's welfare
| as whole.
| 1t is said the telegram was signed by
Messrs. Staab, Spess, Palen, Bartlett,
| Knaebel, Harroun and Cartwright.
As is we'll known, Gov. Thornton is
now in Washington, endeavoring to strip
the bond approval bill of the Brice
amendment and working for its passage
without that unholy and unjust append
age. How much his efforts may be en-
barrassed by the action of these citizens
in forwarding this dispatch last night re-
mains to be seen.
Messrs. j. G. Schumann, Sol. Spiegel-
berg, Marcus Eldodt, Downs, Webber and
other tax payers not only refused to sign
the telegram above referred to, but to-day
drafted a long list of facts calculated to
strengthen Gov. Thornton in his contest
against the Brice amendment under any
conditions and sent them to Washington

MRS. PERALTA-REAVIS.
Denver supplying the woman and
Her Twin Boys with Food.

The NEW MEXICAN yesterday printed a
brief dispatch announcing that Mrs. James
Addison Peralta Reavis was living in
Denver in absolute restitution. The
last Denver Republican adds the append.
ed details:
"For some months past the Associated
Charities organization has been supplying
food to Mrs. j. A. Reavis, who lives in a
room at the corner of Twenty-fourth and
Larimer streets. The story told was that
her husband was in Jail and she had no
means of support.
yesterday deputation called at the
city hall ON behalf of the woman to learn
whether it would be possible to secure for
her a license to conduct an employment
agency without having to pay the license
fee. Among those in the deputation were
some who had known her in her more
prosperous days and Others who had come
to know her since she went to live in that
neighborhood and who have aided her as
far as possible.
"The principal plea set forth for aid in
her behalf was that the woman was the
wife of James Addison Peralta- Reavis,
claimant to the Peralta land grant in Arr
IONA. The husband was indicted for per-
jury and it was stated by the people in
terested that he is at present in Santa Fe
endeavoring to get out of the clutches of
the law and that his wife is alone, desti-
tute, in a strange CITY,"
Mrs. Reavis has with her in Denver her
beautiful little twin boys, who we're with
their mother in Santa Fe last summer,
| when she was here az witness in the
Peralta grant case. Whatever may be
thought of Reavis, Mrs. Reavis certainly
impressed all who met her here as N ost
amiable, virtuous and well-meaning wife
and mother and sincere sympathy is felt
for her in the light of the distressing Cir
cumstances above reoited.

BicycIitis.

/. Bicyclitis is the name of a new disease
induced by excessive BICYCLING. Its
symptoms are extreme nervousness and
a craze for riding the wheel at all times.
The vibration of the wheel does it, and
the effects are serious. But no one has
anything of the kind from using the
Saint Paul & Duluth Railroad. The COM
fort of the ride and the freedom from
worry cause one to want to ride again
and again, but there is no nervousness
only sense Of comfort and enjoyment.
This has made the Duluth Short Line
very popular with the travelling public,
for this line has fast trains equipped up
to Gate, and they run smoothly at hours
convenient to the business man az we'll
as the tourist. Always take the Duluth
Short Line and be in with the people.
Ticket agents will cheerfully furnish
maps, circulars, general information,
etc. or, they may be obtained direct by
writing to W. A. Russell, general passen
ger agent, St. Paul, Mimi.
