A very indignant lady entered a local
dry goods store this morning. She had
caught the handsome gown which she
wore between the boards or on a nail
in a defective sidewalk on Palace avenue
between the plaza and the sanitarium
and had the garment almost ruined. She
intended to notify the mayor.
The Dewey social given in the Catron
block last night under the auspices OF
the Epworth League, was a complete
success. The attendance was large and
every II present enjoyed the occasion
to the fullest. The program was excel
lent, the refreshments delightful and
the receipts exceeded the expectations
of the most sanguine. When Santa Fe's
local talent undertakes to entertain the
public no II is ever disappointed.
Esquibel Cano, the man arrested for
the robbery last Sunday morning at
j. E. Woods residence, has confessed
to the crime and this morning took
Deputy Sheriff Huber to a point neal
the Santa Fe railroad station, where all
of the iewelry was hidden. The money
taken, about $40, had been squandered
by Cano before he was arrested. A
beautiful bracelet inlaid with valuable
stones, a wedding present to Mrs. Wood
by her mother and the latter's gold
watch were among the things recov-
cred.
1t has been learned that the reason
for the extension of Galisteo street be-
tween Water and San Francisco streets,
not being opened is that private par
ties who have subscribed money to pay
for grading the new street, laying side
walks and fencing adjacent property
have not paid their subscriptions, and
as the city has no money to be used for
these purposes, the work cannot be
done. The city's deed to the ally now
in use has been executed and signed,
but Mr.. Blain refuses to transfer the
ground for the new street until the
money that has been subscribed has
been paid, and for that reason the OPEN
ing of the street is delayed. The gem
eral public is demanding that the street
be opened and the men who voluntarily
subscribed the money to pay the ex-
penses should make their promises good.
The subscriptions were made before the
opening of the street was thought of,
otherwise the council would not have
undertaken the work.
f. J. Gleason, superintendent of the
Santa Fe Fruit Company's new plant,

The Wells-Fargo Company is shipping
quantities of fruit grown in this
vicinity to Kansas City, Chicago, st.
Louis and other eastern cities.
Mayor Hudson is authority for the

hibit here tomorrow, all reports to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
People residing in the neighborhood
of the cathedral complain of someone
firing off a shotgun frequently during
