ASSASSINATED
The Empress of Austria Murdered

LONDON, Sept. 10.-A report from
Geneva. Switzerland, says that the en-
press of Austria has been murdered. No
particulars are given and the report
can not be confirmed.
GENEVA Switzerland, Sept. 10
The empress Elizabeth of Austria had
been sojourning here a few days
and was leaving for Montecu
where she intended to stay for some
time. She left her hotel for the boat
at 12:45 p. m. On her way she was as
sailed by man who rushed up to her
and struck her.
The empress fell but staggered to
her feet and started on again for the
boat, believing herself unhurt. She
reached the steamer, and the
captain, after some hesitation, ordered
the boat 10 proceed, only doing so,
however, at the command of her ma
jesty. Shortly after the boat put off
the empress tainted and the steamer
returned 20 the pier.
Her majesty was taken ashore at
once and carried to her hotel where she
expired little later without regaining
consciousness. 1t was then
found that she had been
stabbed and that the assassin's stilettO
had reached her heart. The assassin
was arrested and proved to be an 1tal-
ian anarchist named Luccheni, who
said that he was born in Paris.
The news of the murder of the en-
press spread rapidly through the city,
almost supplying the people with hor-
ror.
The empress of Austria was the
Princess Elizabeth of Bavaria. She
was born December "a, 1887. She be-
came the wife of Emperor Francis JOS
eph at Vienna, April "a, 1854.
VIENNA, Sept. 10.-The bare announce
ment of the empress's assassination
reached Vienna at O'Clock this after
noon. The emperor, who intended
starting for Lutzscheu in northern
Hungary late this afternoon to attend
the military maneuvers, was over
whelmed by the news. A special train
was speedily got in readiness and the
emperor left for Geneva at once.

White Oaks Notes.

f. and l.. A. White have located in
Alamogordo and will begin to build
houses and store building for rent.
Commercial Agent Alexander is very
busy getting his exhibits together for
the New Mexico fair. Mr.. Alexander
told the reporter that he had some of
the finest fruit ever grown in this
country in his exhibit. Among the
specimens he has are some peaches
that weigh from sixteen to twenty Oun-
ces. He also has fifty potatoes which
will weigh 100 pounds.
c. Z. Davidson, one of the owners of
the large saw mill ST AlamogOrdO,
said: 1--WE are getting in good posi-
tion for work now. Mr.. WILDER Bailey,
who has taken the contract to cut and
haul tim Der to the side of the railroad,
has gone up in the mountains and is
making q place for his camp. He has
two carloads of stuff coming from the
east to use in the work, also q carload
of horses He will bring some of the
old timber cutters from the Maine for
ests to do the cutting"
The marble question is agitating the
minds o: the people of AlamogOrdO,
and the.company. Near Alamogordo,
about two and one half miles. there is
vein of marble, sample of which is
in the show window OF the Golden
Eagle Clothing house, which can't be
beaten in this country" so says the
commercial agent. 1--WE can put that
marble into FL Paso very near as cheap
as the Pecos stone and it is far better for
building purposes, as it does not crum-
BILE. Mr.. Davidson is thinking of put
ting saw attachment for his mill,
and when he does we can deliver the
marble any thickness wanted"

loud voice as he could
command, "Ill bet you 30 cents that

Good. ;" was the reply of the Hi
nois man: Il IL take that bet

THE CROWDED SCHOOLS.
Superintendent Putnam Trying To
Remedy The Trouble

This morning Superintendent Put
nam of the city public schools address
ed to the school board a letter concern
ing the crowded condition of the
schools. es follows:
Ell PASO, Texas, Sept. 10th.
To the President and Honorable
School Board. Gentlemen
l am forced to state to your
honorable body that the present crowd
ed condition of the public schools of
our city renders it imperatively me-
cessary for you to secure the services
of another teacher.
All the rooms are filed to their ut
most capacity and there are now still
over fifty white children without desks.
In some Of the rooms weshave already
been compelled to divide the grades
into two divisions, which gives the
teacher one division to teach in the
morning and the other in the after
noon. This is very unsatisfactory ar
rangement but it is the best that can
be made under the present crowded
condition of the schools.
| had hoped that with the new addi-
tion to the teaching force which was
made we would be able to accomnodate
all who applied for seats without ask
ing for further assistance from your
honorable body this term, but the rap
III bh VI Clby auo IHC SICaS III
crease of population have made the
mum Der too great for us.
Carpenters are now preparing an ad-
ditional room at the Central school
building and by Monday it will be all
ready for occupancy.
[ should be glad if you would fur
nish us the services of another teacher
as early as you can secure the services
OF competent one. l am,
Very Respectfully,
@. Z. PUTNAM,
Supt. FL Paso Public Schools.
In pursuance to the urgent announce
ment of Prof. Putnam, this morning
DR.. Race, president OF the school,
board, issued call of the board for
three p. N. for the purpose of ratifying
the work already started in the max
ing of another room in the Centra
| school, and for the election of another
teacher.
The board met at the specified time
with President Race in the chair and
quorum present. Professor Putnam
made a report to the board which was
| about the same as in the above com
municstion. and then the board, OF
motion by Judge Blacker, sanctioned
the superintendent action.
| The next matter taken up was the
| election of another teacher. The name
OF Mrs Ida Patterson was presented sn(
| she was unanimously ~ elected to fill tn,
position as new teacher. There will
be some changes before Mrs. Patterson
is finally assigned.
