w. Armijo, son of Mrs. Lola Luna, of
Albuquerque. Young Armijo is a ser
geant of Troop +, Captain Max. Luna's
company in the Rough Riders" now in

Sergeant Armijo had his hand shot OIL
at the engagement of La Quasina, that
his friends have generally believed the
report. Mr.. Bergere's letter brings the
welcome news that the wound was no

The injury, writes the young man, is
simply a flesh wound in the left hanc
and no bones were broken. Sergean
Armijo is now at the hospital AT For
Mcpherson, Ga. His hand has abou'
healed and he expects to soon join hi:
company again. The letter speaks very
| highly of the bravery of the Young cap

milo was wounded.

Anxious for Active Service.

Anxious tor Active Service.
The NEW MEXICAN's Tampa, Fla,
correspondent states, that there are
nearly 600 men OF the Rough Riders"
still in camp there, namely the four
troops that did not go to Cuba and
about $50 recruits. 100 of who hail from
New Mexico. The squadron is well
drilled and in excellent shape and will
compare %favorably with the regular
cavalry. Major Hersey, who is in com-
mand. has worked hard and faithfully
to bring the squadron to a high state of
efficiency and Captain George Curry.
commanding Troop II, is proving a very
valuable and good officer. The division
commander, General j.. j. Copplnger,
has congratulated Major Jersey upon
the fine state of discipline and effective
ness that prevails among the "Rough
Riders The officers and men are anX
ious for active service and want to go
either to Cuba or Puerto Rico to get at
the Spaniards. 1t is believed that they
will be sent to Cuba soon to join the
eight troops there under Colonel Roose-
welt and that the entire regiment will
be sent to Puerto Rico. However, no
orders to that effect had been received
up to yesterday, as a dispatch received
yesterday afternoon from Major Hersey
states. The major informs the New
MEXICAN that he has made strenuous
efforts to be sent to active service in the
field and Governor Otero has telegraphed
the War department, asking that Major
fIersey and Troops G and |, composed
principally of New Mexico volunteers be
| put into the field, either in Cuba or Pu'
| erto Rico. The command is in good
shape and splendid fighting trim, there
is no sickness. but the officers and men,
from Major HerSey down, are tired OF
Tampa and camp duty and are very
anxious for active campaigning.

FROM OUR VOLUNTEERS.
Miraculous Escape from Being Seriously
Wounded Of Young Ralph McFie-
This Spanish Fought Well,

A correspondent in the Trough
Riders writes the New MEXICAN under
date of July :, that their three troops
were still in camp near Santiago and that
negotiations for surrender were then
going on. The troops were glad of the
rest. This thing of fighting an unseen
enemy in bushes, cactus and palm trees
when you cannot see ten yards ahead is
not what it is cracked up to be. The
three troops. were under steady fire from
June 80 to July 4, and shell and shrap :
mel were s%creeching around and over
the men during all these long hours and
days. When they were not shooting
or lodging bullets, shells and shot,
they were throwing up and erecting en-
~trenchments and breastworks. just
mind that. There were some mir
aculous escapes from harm. For in
stance, young Ralph McFie, son
OF Judge John R. McFe, showed re-
markable GOODNESS. and bravery. A
piece of shell from a three-inch gun hit
the blanket roll and shelter tent car
ried by him on the shoulder. The shell

Under the recent act three land Offices
have been established in Alaska, Sitka,

all be supplied with registers and re-
ceivcrs, each to receive an annual sal

the same mining rights in Alaska us
are extended by their government to
our citizens in British Columbia and
the Northwest territory.
Under the laws of Canada United
States citizens are permitted to lease
mineral lands in their territory upon
payment of a royalty, but the mineral
lands cannot be purchased.
AS the laws of the United States do
not make any provision for the leasing
of'mineral lands in Alaska, but provides
for the purchase of such lands, the
above provision of the hcw Jaw is unOp-
crativc
The privilege of entering goods or
merchandise in bond, or of placing
them in bonded warehouses, without
payment of duty is reciprocal.
From the foregoing it may be seen
that the provisions of the act of con-
.rcss OF May l4th. 1898. were far reach
ing in their scope and cover quite fully
the needs of the growing territory and
further provisions may be added as
their need groWs.
