Wonderful Nectariues,


Before tomorrow afternoon the Horti-
cultural exhibition will have shown to
the world that New Mexico is the best of
all fruit producing countries. But mean
while we must call attention to one par
ticular fruit which is scarcely known in
the east but which grows to wonderful
perfection here. We refer to the nec-
tarine. Those raised by Mr.. Boyle in
this city have been celebrated for years,
but il seems now as if the Espanola val
lev was specially adapted to the culture.
For the last ten days Major Twitohell has
been shipping large quantities of mag.
nificent nectarines from his orchard near
Espanola, the fruit being Of large size
and great beauty and exciting admiration
everywhere. They we're of the Elrage
variety with perhaps some Of the Early
Violet, both kinds having roseate glow
on greenish yellow ground, and it is
understood that there will be fine dis.
play of them at the fair.
On Saturday Governor Prince came
down from his orchard in the same vi
cinity, bringing nectarines which in size
are beyond anything ever seen before II
this county or recorded in horticulture
books. They are of much later kind
the Stanwick, and will not be ripe foI
sometime, but in their present condition
look more like round apples than nee
tarines. One weighs 5A ounces, and Hv
taken together weigh over 26 ounces
There are plenty on trees weighing fiv
ounces each. The largest Of those brough
in is just eight and half inches in OR
cum ference, aud the others are little be
low that measure. Verify New Mexico
the right place to raise nectarines.

ALLEGED GOLD DISCOVERY.
Fabulous story of Rich Gold Quartz
on Lake Wawa-An Uninhabit-
ed Region.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. GA special re-
ceived today by the Evening News from
Wawa City, the new town in the Michipo-
coten gold country on Lake Wawa, says:
"Quartz has been found here that assays
over 5000 ton. Ii is found not only in
one section, but in different places ex-
tending over several thousand acres.
Quartz has been found here containing
free gold in chunks as big as kernel of
wheat. Prospectors every day are find
ing specimens that assay $50 ton.
Probably 100 are today working in the
hills. Another party of 65 reached here
yesterday afternoon. Several Thousand
acres save already been claimed, but
there are all kinds of disputes about
priority of claims. The country where
the discoveries were made has never been
opened up for settlement. The only in
habitants are Indians and Hudson Bay
traders"

THE ENCHANTED MESA.
"A Recent Visit to the Mesa Encantada
Reveals Evidences of Former
InhabitatiOn

! few weeks ago, Professor Libby, of
Princeton college, with much blowing of
horns and shooting of cannon, scaled the
heights of the enchanted Mesa Encan-
tada, and after remaining on the plateau
about two hours, descended, packed up
the cannon, coiled the ropes, and depart
ed for the east. The results of the trip
were vividly set forth in Harper's Weekly
two weeks ago. Ia that article Professor
Libby ridiculed the idea that anyone ever
lived on the mesa, and denounces the
legendary accounts of the destruction of
the pathway to the top of the mesa by
lightning rs a myth and falsehood in the
following words:
"The medicine man of the future will
now have to publish a new and revised
edition of the story. II x = Il There
were no remnants of pottery, or frag-
ments of household i'm plements of any
kind; no water tanks for the storage of
rain-water; one object alone looked as
though it might have been built by hu-
man hands, and that was small cairn-
like mass of stones"
Professor Libbey is undoubtedly
learned man, but what he does not know
about New Mexico mesas and Indians
would fill very large volume. At the
time he made his startling announcement,
those persons who had some knowledge
of ancient Indian hsbitatlons ridiculed
the idea that the old Indian tradition had
no foundation in fact, and declared that
more thorough investigation would reveal
abundant evidence that the mesa was In
habited at one time.
That prediction has been verified, and
Mr.. II. O. Hayt an old gentleman from
Chicago, who was In Santa Fe yesterday,
was member of the party which found
evidences of Indian occupation.
Mr.. Hayt was seen at the ID. & R. g.
train this morning by representative
of the NEwMExIoAN, and asked about his
persons in the part There her ,Sar Ie-" .hrea
makes no difference at this time,

cended the mesa without much difficulty
at point '-here the climbing to within
40 feet Of le top is an easy matter, and
that 40 oct was surmounted by means
only known by the members of the party.
On reaching the top we remained "a
hours, spending one night In the open.
We found pieces of broken pottery,
mounds and other evidences of former
inhabitat1on, and they were most GER

but cannot betray confidence"
As the train pulled out Mr.. Hayt prom.
ised to send the NEW MEXICAN the articles
to be written on the mesa by his friend,
so soon as they appeared, and then, the
full particulars of the visit will be known.

RESISTANCE THREATEN ED.
Efforts to Eject Intruders from the
Cherokee Nation Likely to
Cause Trouble.

Sloan Springs, Ark, Sept. 6.--From
present Indications trouble will follow
an attempt to eject intruders from the
Cherokee nation. When the Cherokee strip
was sold, the government promised to
put out all intruders, but upon one
technicallity or another they managed to
remain.
The government has now ordered their
removal forthwith. There are 5000 of
them and Agent Wisdom will undertake
the task at once.
Word from the nation today says that
there will be resistance and serious trou-
bic is not improbable, as some are des-
perate men. Two or three companies of
cavalry are being held in readiness at
Fort Gibson.
