instantly. A man by the name OF
Richards, who accompanied johnson,
was shot twice through the shoulder.
After the shooting Pratt hitched up u

Ell Paso, Tex. May 30.-The Alomo-
gordo Lumber company has just been
organized with $780, 900 capital and will
Immediately proceed to construct a mill
Of 100, 900 feet daily capacity. The logs
from the Sacramento mountains will be
numbered and hauled by rail to Alomo-
| gordo for manufacture. This means a
big payroll, and already an order has
been given by the company for a board
ing house to accommodate so employees.
| Southern New Mexico is to be congratu-
lated upon the prospects for its new
town.
The timber on the Sacramento noun
tains is extensive and the finest variety
| consisting of yellow pine, white pine,
| spruce and cedar. 1t is said to be the
| finest and most extensive timber belt in
all the west, south of Oregon, and COW
ers between 100000 and 100000 acres.
The town of ~Alamogordo, which is on
the main line of the Ell Paso & North
eastern railway, is within a few miles of
tho southwest corner Of this vast and
valuable timber belt, and from this town
the Alamogordo & Sacramento railroad
is now in course Of construction to tap
the timber, the trackage of this line
will exceed over 100 miles and all
through this timber and agricultural
section.
The numbering interests alone will
make Alamogordo a thriving and pros
porous city not taking into c%onsidera-
ton the thousands and thousands of
acres of the best agricultural lands to
| the east where in many cases fruits and
cereals can be raised without irrigation.
Settlers are going in there rapidly,
there being on the records of the U. s.
land Office at Las Cruces now about 80
applications of 160 acres each for final
proofs, which means 30 actual settlers
and about $50 people. 1t is estimated
that within the past four months be-
tween 100 and $50 settlers have settled
In the valleys of the S~acramentos,
| which means between 500 and 700 peo-
| pie, the largest immigration any section
of New Mexico has received for ten
years.
The sale of lots in the new town of
Alamogordo, which will be the end of a
division of the Ell Paso T. Northeastern
railway, principal place of business
of that road and the trading and bust
ness center of one of the richest parts
of New Mexico, commences June 6, next.
