much force in the contention of learn

the statute was the sale of a ticket
which did not entitle the holder TO
travel thereon, but such is not the aim
or purpose of the law. If [ enter rail

Scenes and conditions in New Mex

OVERCOME during the past few days in the
Office of Attorney B. S. Rodey in this
city where evidence has been taken
before Judge Laughary in the case OF
Warren F. Shedd and George E. Blake
against the government for Indian de-
predations, which occurred at Fort
Selden, N. M. in 1866 aud at the San
Augustin ranchsome twenty-five miles
east of Las Cruces. The Mes
calero Apaches committed the de-
probation.
AIban K. Watts, of Silver City, was
the butcher for Shedd & Blake. who
were meat contractors for the forts of
southern New Mexico and west Texas
at the time, besides being post traders
and ranchmen on large scale. Old
man Watts detailed the occurrences and
the hair breadth escapes from the In
oians of himself and others, as we'll as
the death by Indians of many persons
and incidentally touched upon the his
tory of many of our old timers in the
southern part of the territory.
