PRESIDENT OF LAS VEGAS NORMAL.
Professor Hewett Seems Much Pleased at
the Prospect Of Coming from Colorado
to New Mexioo-Views His Work
with Confidence.

Professor E. l.. Hewett. Superintcnd-
ent of the training department of the
Colorado normal school at Greeley and
p~resident-elect of the New Mexico nor
nal school at Las Vegas, after spending
an enjoyable holiday vacation with his
accomplished wife in sunny Santa Fe,
left for Greeley last night.
In conversation with a New MEXICAN
representative Professor Hewett frankly
admits that the prospect of becoming
a permanent resident of New Mexico
is exactly in line with his wishes, as
he has the largest confidence in the fu-
turc of this territory, is pleased with
the intelligence, enterprise and energy
of the moving spirits thereof, and is
perfectly charmed with our beautiful
scenery and peerless climate.
s'The normal school at Las Vegas will
not formally open until September, but,
as soon as l finish my years work at
Greeley in June. l expect to begin my
work in New Mexico" said Professor
Hewett. 1.-THE first duty assigned to
me by the regents is the pleasant one of
visiting the principal places in the terri
tory for the purpose of making the peo-
pie acquainted with the objects and ad-
vantages of the new normal school. /
can talk for the institution with a clear
conscience as | I'm thoroughly convinced
that, heartily sustained and supported
as it is by the best sentiment in the ter
ritory and most eligibly located, it is
destined to become one of the notable
educational centers of the west.
THE new brown sandstone buildings
are almost ideally located from a SAM
tary standpoint, and, constructed ac-
cording to the design and under the
supervision of Mr.. Rapp, who has charge
Of your capitol rebuilding, they are per-
fectly and exceptionally adapted to the
work contemplated. They will COM
fortably accommodate 400 OF 500 stud
ents and hence will be ample for several
years to come. OF course the chief work
of the institution will be the educating
and training of teachers, but in addition
there will be a regular and carefully
conducted academic department for the
benefit of the young men and young
women of the territory who may not
contemplate teaching
Professor Hewett is a talented, cul-
tivated and genial gentleman with a
most enviable record as a teacher. After
graduating at Tarkio college in Missouri,
he took a commercial course at Burling-
ton and a law course at Sioux City, both
in Iowa, and, after serving for some time
as professor of history and English
literature in Tarkio college, located at
Florence, Colo, as superintendent of the
public schools there. Thence he went
to Greeley to assume the duties of a
similar position. Six years ago he be-
came professor of science in the Greeley
normal and during the past three years
has been at the head of that fine school.
Thus he comes to New Mexico with the
education and experience that admir-
ably equip him for the important task
he has undertaken.

Property Loss Consid-
cradle.

Yesterday morning the east bound
California express train collidod with a
freight train. on the Santa Fe road. at
Otero siding ten miles south of Ration,
smashing both engines and a number of
freight cars. None of the passengers
or trainmen were injured. The accident
was caused by a misunderstanding of
orders. The passenger train, which
does not stop at the siding, was run
ming at a high rate of speed, the en-
gineer supposing the track to be clear.
The freight train was making for the
side track, but was a few minutes late,
and the two trains crashed into each
other with terrific force. The wreckage
was cleared up and the track repaired
in time to allow all trains to pass last
night.

POLITICS In PARAGRAPHS.
New Mexican's Freshest Information Con-
corning Prospective and Probable APP
pointments of Local Interest.

1t is expected that the name of Will
liam J. Mills for appointment as chief
justice of the Territorial Supreme court
will be sent to the United States sem
ate tomorrow by President Mckinley.
X Il -
In this city it is said that Harry $.
Clancy. who was removed by a Demo-
cratic Supreme court from the position
of clerk of the Territorial Supreme
court, is a candidate for clerk Of the
First judicial district.
Secundino Romero, of Las Vegas, is
an active applicant for clerk of the
Fourth judicial district, whenever Chief
Justice Smith steps down and out, an
event which will happen very soon
and indeed should have come about
many months ago. Mr.. Romero was a
visitor here yesterday. looking after his
fences.
Word comes from the central portion
of the territory, that Hon. Maximiliano
Luna, of Valencia county, eX-member
of the legislature, will very likely be a
candidate for clerk of the Fifth judicial
district, whenever a new Judge shall
be appointed in place Of Judge Hamil-
ton.
1t is believed in Deming that Mrs.
Israel King, of that town. will be APP
pointed postmistress when a change is
made in the Office. Mrs. King is the
widow of the late Israel King, who was
a very exemplary and valuable citizen
and a good Republican, and who repre-
scented Grant and Dona Ana counties in
the legislative council of the Twenty
ninth legislative assembly with credit
and ability.
The New MEXICAN is informed from
Las Cruces, that John Lemon, of that
city, is a candidate for appointment as
register of the U. s. land office there,
a vacancy existing owing to the death
of the late Il. L. Sluder, and has good
home support. Mr.. Gustave l.. Solig-
nae, of this city, is also a candidate,
and has some home support. E. A.
Chaffee. of Anthony, Dona Ana county,
has been working for some months to
secure the office. 1t is believed that
the vacancy will be filed at an early
date. The receiver of the office is now
attending to the duties of the Office.
\ X X
There is no truth whatsoever in the
report, that Mr.. j. w. Reynolds, of Las
Vegas, has been agreed upon for the APP
pointment as clerk of the Fourth Judi
cial district. The New MEXICAN is in
formed that Mr.. Reynolds is not even a
candidate. AS for the report itself it is
ridiculous. 1t is very likely that Mr.. w.
j. Mills will be the next chief justice OF
the territory and those who know the
gentleman well, scout the idea of agree
ment or the like as far as any appoint
ments connected with the court, over
which he very probably will preside, is
concerned.

Girl Murderer Captured.

A late Albuquerque dispatch says:
Jose Rubi, the Indian, who assaulted
and then murdered a 15-year old Ameri-
can girl at Silver City about IL month
ago, was captured west of this city today
and brought here tonight by Deputy
Sheriff Vigil, of Valencia county. Rubi
traversed the country on foot and when
captured had on the same hobnail shoes
that led to his Identification at the time
of the murder. Ever since his capture
Rubi has been feigning insanity.

son our train was the Gay Coney
Island company twenty-six in all.
They, with all their baggage and
scenery, were transferred around the
ledge and than continued their jour.
ney to Texas. The baggage and
scenery and mail W. re carried on the
backs of Mexicans. 1t was impossible
for wagons or horses to make the trip
over the rocky ground. Fires were
kept burning along the trail, and to
watch the passengers and baggage
carriers of one train working their way
eastward over the trail and those from
the other train working their way
westward looked like line of big ants

There were three corpses in the bag

carried around the mountain by Mexi
cans. For the present passengers, bag

around by way OF the trail from one

expect to build a temporary track
around the mountain so that the train,
can make the trip until the tunnel il
