A NEW FOUNDRY.
LANCE One to be Established in the
Near Future.

Another institution. that will accrue
greatly to Ell Paso's interest, will soon
be started in this city.
The mark of organization has been
completed and work will be started as
soon as articles of Incorporation are
filed at Austin.
The new foundry and iron works will
be situated south of the Santa Fe tracks
and near the Water Co.'S. plant.
The GROUND has already been bought
from Horace 2. Stevens.
Alderman McDuffie, formerly con-
nected with the Ell Paso foundry is one
of the stockholders in the new com
pany and is now in St. Louis purchas-
ing machinery. He will return in q
short time and work will then begin.
Messrs. Cooley, Tracy, Bushong, Dr.
Turner and McDuffie are the principal
stockholders.
They h-ld a meeting last Saturday
night and their organization was COM
pleted.
A large force of men will be employ
ed and the local aud Mexican trade
will be paid particular attention to,
Ell Paso can easily support an indus
try of this sort and 1t will undoubtedly
prove paying investment for the
stOckh olders.

IRRI6ATIN6 AT SHALAM COLONY.
Interesting Experiments Being
Carried On BY Mr.. Rowland.

| At the Shalam colony near Las
| Cruces, very interesting experiments
in irrigation are being conducted. A
waterworks have been built just over
the line between Shelsm and Levitica,
where the water lis stored for irrigat.
ing all the land.
Mr.. Howlaud was in Ell Paso day
or two ago and in conversation with a
HERALD representa- said 1--WE have
reservoir covering one acre, and five
feet deep, holding say 10000 gal
Ions Of water, with an outlet through a
twelve-inch pipe into siX-inch and two
eight-inch pipes, all controlled by
valves. A short distance south of this
Is stone well eighteen feet in dis-
meter and say thirty-three feet deep.
containing about twenty feet of water
when not being pumped from. Over
this we'll Is a galvanized steel tower
forty feet high, upon which is six
teen-feet Aermotor wildmill, working
ter-lnch irrigating pump, and, In
good wind, throwing into the reservoir
about one hundred gallons of water per
minute. On the west side of the we'll
in brick building are located 90 H.
P. boiler and a fifteen-huud gallon
Deane pump, which draws from the
well and throws into the main irri-
eating ditch from one thousand to
twelve hundred gallons per minute of
pure water, free from alkali; or, by
shutting valve, this water is dis
charged into the reservoir. About
thirty feet below the bottom of this
well is water-bearing strata of gravel.
One eleven and -five-eight inch casirg
pipe and three six-inch pipes have
been sunk in this well to this strata,
and the water rose in them to within
ten feet of the surface Of the
ground. These pipes have all
been uncoupled just above
the bottom of the we'll, and so soon as
the pump commences to draw water
from the we'll these pipes commence
flowing. When the water in the we'll |
Is pumped down to within about six
feet of the bottom of the well, the sup
ply of water is equal to the capacity of
the pump, and it falls no lower. When |
the pump is stopped the water rises |
verR rapidly and soon fills the we'll |
again to within ten feet of the surface.
The flowing then ceases, and the water |
remains stationary until the pump is |
started again. The suction pipe of the |
pump is twelve inches, and the dis |
charge ten inches. Mesquit root, which |
can be had for the cost of digging, and |
is as good as coal, used for fuel.

Everything Is Being Arranged For

Monddy. &.

The annual excursion of the K. of L.
being over, attention Ia now turned to
the bachelors annual love feast at
Courchesne's delightful grove three
miles up the Santa Fe road next Mon
day night. A special train will leave
the Santa Fee depot that night and a l
who are not supplied with socks
are warned to keep off the
train and save the bachelors
the trouble of tearing them limb from
limb. The bachelors are jolly set
until their rights have been Irampled
upon and then they are decidedly
dangerous.
The annual love fessts of the bachel-
ors have become very popular and the
delightful time on the same occasion
one year ago, was being discussed on
the streets today. They all agreed
that the event OF next Monday night
could not be overlooked. There will
be plenty and the best OF everything
and grand time is assured
