A Rector Resigns.
The following in relation to a we'll

Something of a surprise was Great

effect on February 10th. Mr.. Allen
goes to Springfield, Mo-, where be

church has large aud Hourishing

Mr.. Allen said today:

here has been completed, and because
u Is better so for number Of reasons.

work for NE for one thing, and then
for another, the health of my wife

-Four wears ago Mr.. Allen. seeing the
need of larger home for his congre-
+ CATION, began 10 plan for a new
structure. and he never lost sight OF
the new project from that time on.
Most of the money contributed was
subscribed upon his personal solici-
! tatiOn, and he also collected "A large
amount Of the money with which to
( carry on the work. He took trips
East to New York, Brooklyn, Phila
delphia and 1t. Louis, to collect
money, aud there is no question but
that for his perseverance, foresight
and hard work the new church struc-
ture would never have been begun.
1t is a splendid heritage which he
leaves to his congregation. What is
more he cleared off debt of 5000

here.
The people of Springfield will find
that in Mr.. Allen they have made a
most excellent choice. He is a man
who labors necessarily for the good
of his parish. He is clear reasoner.

For convenience in making his reports
Engineer Harroun has divided the ter
ritory into II districts as follows: San
Juan, Chama, Taos, Santa Fe, Jemez,
Puerco. Black Range, Colorado. Cana
dian, Pecos and Rio Grande. Each dis
trict is treated separately and thorough
ly, and the information contained in
that part of the report is worthy of
widespread publication. Mr.. Harroun's
report is completed in the following
words:
"In January, 1898, | took measure
ments of the Rio Grande at Albuquer-
que and Corrales, the flow being about
1000 second feet at the time and found
a loss of 20 second feet in a distance of
eight miles or, 2.5 second feet per mile.
In all the above measurements there was
no diversion whatever of water from the
river between the points mentioned.
| have been unable to find any indi-
cation of return waters, excepting along
the head waters of some of the minor
streams.
These seepage losses occur generally
throughout New Mexico and Indicate
that the higher up the stream the water
is diverted, the greater the acreage that
can be irrigated. New Mexico has great
areas of lard which will be ultimately
irrigated from underground waters. The
valley of the Pecos, Rio Grande and the
Florida plains, as well as other districts,
are underlaid with great bodies of water,
and this subject should be carefully in
vestigated, as no data is at present
available on the subject.
would suggest that steps should be
taken towards the creation of the office
of territorial engineer, that these sub
jects, which are of such vital import
ance to the territory at large, and so
necessary to it's advancement, may re-
ceive the attention and investigation so
greatly needed.

Status OF the Army Bill.

According to yesterdays dispatches,
the Hull army bill was read before the
senate, and then laid aside for another
reading, perhaps today, perhaps to-
morrow, perhaps next day, according to
the moods and mental lenses of the up
per house of congress. The president
and friends of the bill wish it were
passed and in the hands of the execu-
tive who would speedily make it law.
The instrument has experienced a dozen
'capital operations as the surgeons
would say, since its introduction into
the house. and the resultant measure, if
it passes, will be a true child of the 55th
congress. As the bill now stands, ac-
cording to eminent authorities in the
service, it provides for the addition
of three major and six brigadier
generals to the general officers,
just doubling that branch of
the army establishment. The increase
of cavalry regiments. is, however, re-
duced from five, as proposed originally,
to two, making II regiments altogether;
while the infantry is increased
only by five additional regiments. The
most marked change is in the artillery
arm of the service. Here, both parties
seem to agree that a large increase must
be made, or else leave a large line of
valuable sea cost line unprotected, and
much very costly fortification machinery
and ordnance without care that is alb
solutely necessary. So the artillery
arm is increased to the equivalent of IA
regiments, just double the present num-
Der of commands, only the r%eorganiza-
ton is on a corps basis. For the first
time, the advocates for 10, these many
years, of the three battalion formation
are successful, though, whether there
will be three majors to a regiment, or
whether there will be two majors with
first battalion, is as yet undecided. The
rank of captain is given to regimental
quartermasters and commissaries instead
of first lieutenant, and for the first time
since 1869, a legal organization is given
to regimental bands, the members of
which are well provided for in the mat
ter Of rank, pay and allowances. This
provision will be highly appreciated
throughout the service as 1t Is hard to
