THEY WANT TO STAY.
Many OF the Volunteers In Manila
Wish To Settle There.

An extract of a letter from Major
Theodore Stern berg, paymaster,
United States volunteers, TO an G fficial
Of the war department dated Manila,
Jan. %, 1899 says:
81 wish you would call the attention
OF the president and secretary of war
to this:
There is not less than 10 per cent
of the volunteers who honestly wish to
remain in these islands and make
homes here and engage in agricultural,
lum bering and mining. From
every point of view this
should be encouraged unless America
means to haul down its flag and sneak
home. The time will come when
every American Will recognize the
value of these islands. Take but one
item-cattle. They thrive here. 1t is
the finest stock country l ever saw.
The orient can be supplied with beef
from here. Now these soldiers wish to
be disch rged here with travel pay
This will be their capital. Those who
are in earnest are willing to do any
thing in reason to prove it. 1 believe
that they would be willing to serve out
two years enlistment by transfer to
the regular army if necessary.
They would, many of them. prefer
to be mustered out here with nothing
rather than be compelled to go to the
stateS 10 De mustered out. There are
also many regular soldiers enlisted I'M
der order No. 40, These men think
they should be paid travel pay if they
intend setting in these islands. Now
all OF this is based upon the idea that
the United States will etain some sort
OF interest in these islands. Knowing
the value of the pioneer 1 say deliher-
ately that each of these plain soldiers,
young. vigorous and used 10 this
elm ate, by remaining here will be of
1nestlmable value to our country. The
only way to Americanize these islands
is by the example of American pioneers
engaged in making homes for themsel-
yes. L take no stock in the cry that
white mer can not work in the tropics
They can when working for them
selves. There are no healthier people
than the English and Scotch who have
lived here for many years. At all
events the government has here now
the cream of Americas young man
hood, who are anxious to try the thing.
81 know the regulars as a rule do not
want to hold these islands, because
thew prefer stations in the states.
know the majorityof the volunteers are
homeslck and so color their opipio ions
But had rather die here than see the
nag come down, and if was twenty
years younger L would make nv home
on farm here "

WATER WORKS
For AlamoqordO-The Supply Comes
From Cool, BubbIing Springs In
Alamo Canon, 1900 Feet Above
the Town and the Pressure. If
Unrestrained, Mould Burst the
Iron Pipes.

Iron Pipes.
Alamogordo has taken another leap
forward. She Is rapidly becoming a
city and advancing with long strides
toward the goal OF greatness.
The latest innovation of the magic
little city of the mountains that sprung
into being almost in u night, Is her de-
cision to put ina splendid system OF
water works.
Not only has it been decided to es-
| Ia bllsh the water works but the neces-
sary pipe has been ordered.
This live piece of news was given TO
HERALD reporter this morning by
Harry Alexander, the up to date com
! mercisl agent of the FL Paso and
Northeastern railway. Eleven miles
of pipe will be laid and the water sup
ply will be procured from Alamo Ca
non four miles from the city and 1900
feet above it.
The water will flow down from the
canon in ten inch mains and be distrib-
uted in all parts of town by means OF
four and six inch pipes. The elevation
of the suorce of the water supply ls so
great that the pressure will be tremen-
dous and it will be necessary TO adopt
means for reducing it Any pressure
desired can be Obtained and water re-
leased from the pipes in the city can De
SAIo" II W any TedoOudDle uSiSut'
The water supply comes from the
many cool bubbling springs In Alamo
canon, Wy ich were developed by the
White Oaks railway company. II is so
pure that wafer crosses grow In the
llmpid stream near where it will be
tapped by the big water pipes. Inc
springs supply four cubic feet OF this
water per second, which is an ample
amount for the use of a large city.
Alamogordo now has HOO inhab1t-
ants, city water, electric lights, grad
ed streets and an ice factory. 1t Is
close to and connected by rail with an
exhaustless tim Der country and has
immense coal fields, now being de-
veloped, wi hin stones throw.
Eight or ten months ago the site OF
Alamogordo was q parched mesquite
plain without q single inhabitant and
where not drop of water was obtain
able.
Over 5000 shade trees have been re
Gently put out and the new water works
will be one of the finest in the south
west.

First Settler of Tallahassee

Henry Crawford Tucker, who
was born in South Carolina In
1905, came to Georgia in 1914,
and moved down to Florida in
1928, and built a log cabin near
where the capitol building now
stands. He was the first white
man that ever cut a stick on the
hills where the city of Tallahas-
see now flourishes.
Mr.. Tucker was a Primitive
Baptist preacher and was in the
ministry forty six years; was
married three times and when he
died was the father, grandfather
and great grandfather of ia de-
scendants. He first married
Nancy Sapp in 1888; she was the
first white woman in Tallahassee,
and brought forth seven boys and
one girl. He next married Peggy
Ann Watson, and added three
boys and eight girls to his little
family; after the death of Peggy
he married Becky Bryant and
this union added eight boys and
five girls, making a total of eigh-
teen boys and fourteen girls.
One of the boys proved to be a
drunkard, while fourteen of them
are members of the same church,
nearly all are preachers and all
are noted for piety except the
usual one black sheep.-People's
