Who Owns tlle Colt?
GGuardian.1


 A serious shooting affray occurred al Geronimo this week, the particulars ot which, as near as we can learn, are as follows.
 "On Monday last Chas. Carico went into the lot of Justice of the Peace Morris to get colt he claimed he owned and was ordered off by Mrs. Morris. MT. Carico and Mrs. Morris had a nun. Der of hot words, and when Mrs. Morris emphasized her remarks with a con- bination gun, shot gun and rife, MT. Carico decided that discretion was the better part of valor and at first backed off, then evidently thought 8 more rapid escape would be Safer. he turned and rsn for it. Just at that time the shotgun department was brought in use and the left arm and hip of MT. Carico were filled with. between 40 and 50 No. 4 shot.
 MT. Carico was attended by pr. Lin dley, who states that he IS in quite a serious condition.
 No arrests have been made and ap. parently no action will be taken in the matter.

Washington's Birthday.

Washi gton's birthday. next Tues day. the 22d inst, will be observed here by Company K. The company will meet at the armory at 10o'clock, for the semi-annuaI parade. The line of march will be through the principal streets of the town. As is usual on these occa- sions, an inspection of the company will be held on Commercial street, in
 front of the Armory. In the evening,
 ball will be given by the company in Armory hall. As the room is small,
 and is usually crowded on these occa- sions, much to the discomfort of those participating in the dance, the members of the company who have this feature of the celebration in hand feel constrained to enforce the rule in regard to chil- dren. No children will be allowed in the hall after the dancing commences, and the crowd of spectators will be lIm- ited to elderly persons. No crowdlng in either end of the hall will be per- mitted. The last ball given by the company was a very enjoyable affair. and only because these regulations were enforced. The company hopes to see all it's friends on this occasion, and extends an invitation to them 10 attend and proposes to make it as comfortable as possible for them.

Increase of the Mormon Church

According to the report presented to the late general conference of the Nor mon church, the increase for the last year of adult converts and the baptism of children over years of age Tn Utah, Idaho, Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona and Canada exceeds that of the same length of time in all the previous his tory of Mormonism. Outside of the Rocky Mountain districts the accessions have been more than for any two years since the organization of the Mormon church. In England the results of the labors of the Mormon emissaries have been wonderful, exceeding even that attained by Milford Woodruff in the early part of his life, when nearly 2,000 people were lead to adopt Mormonism. by nearly two to one. The greatest suc- cess has been achieved i'll New England, North and South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia and in California and Oregon. The Mormon missionaries now at work number l. 400, all of whom travel and labor without salary.

Sale of Cattle.

Jose Garcia and Miguel Duran, of St Johns, have disposed of all their cattle, running in the "J. G." and "M. D. brands. numbering about six hundred head. The deal was consummated on last Tuesday, the buyer being MT. J. J. Brophy, of Clayton, New Mexico. who was acting as agent for Mrs. Duran. of Union county, New Mexico. The price paid was $16 per head, all around, for everything that stands upon four legs at the time of delivery. The work of gathering the stock will be commenced the latter part of next May, and the cattle are to be ready for delivery at Las Pilas ranch early in June. Messrs. Garcia and Duran will in the future give their undivided attention to their extensive sheep interests.

Lawn Grass.
lStar.l

lStar.
 The problem of a suitable lawn grass for this climate has been solved. Blue grass has been proved to be unavailable. It does we'll enough for a year or two after it is planted, but after that it can- not stand the scorching heat of sum- mer. The experience of gardeners at the city hall plaza has shown this. Ber- muda is a strong summer gass. but turns brown in the fall. Gardner Dave Turner, of the court house plaza has been experimenting with rye grass on Bermuda lawns and the result has been entirely satisfactory. It is, of course, necessary to SOW the rye grass every fall, but it is done with so little trouble that the reward of 8 green lawn during the winter months is entirely adequate. II may be planted in two ways. One is by digging up the Bermuda, without of course, destroying it, and sowing the rye grass seed upon the unturned earth. Or else the Bermuda may be closely mown and dirt sprinkled over it, upon which the rye grass may be sown. This is the only way in which lawn in this climate may be perpetually kept green

Something to Know.

It may be worth something to know that the very best medicine for restor- ing the tired out nervous system to a healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This medicine is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone to the nerve centers in the stomach, gently stimulates the liver and kidneys, and aids these organs in throwing off impurities Tn the blood. Electric Bitters improves the appetite, aids digestion, and is pronounced by those who have tired it as the very best blood purifier and nerve tonic. Try it.
