General Sir George Stewart White has the

done by the we'll known firm of
Tanner, Pennebaker iCo. of Ell Paso
while tae old reliable house of Emer-

done in an artistic manner while the
plumbing and furnishing reflect credit
upon the contractors. Mr.. and Mrs.
Harvey superintended the putting in
place of the furnishings and although
they had limited time in which to do
this not an article was
out of place. Everything looked in
viting and comfortable, from the large
arm chairs on the verauda, which
greet the visitor as he approaches the
hotel, to the comfortable furnishing of
the rooms on the third floor. Mr..
Sutherland, agent of the Alamogordo
Improvement company, had the direct
charge of the construction and furnish
ing of the building and fair share
OF the credit of the result belongs to
him.

with snowy white linen and loaded
with viands fit for the gods. A pucc Oh
bowl was on the Q side table which
was presided over with dignity by
Host Harvey himself. At the head OF
the guest table was Mayor MaRoffin,
representing Ell Pas0. while at the foot
was Mrs. Henry Sutherland, represent

The menu was as follows:

The little city soon expects to be
lighted with electricity as the mill
people have made q canvass and find
that they can secure enough lights at
15c per month each to warrant in pus-
ting in the necessary machinery and
equipment to light the city.
THE BIG MILL.
After lunch visit to the large saw-
mill was on the programme and it was
greatly enjoyed by all. The mill has
q cutting capacity OF between four and
five thousand feet of lumber per hour.
It also has In connection q lathmill, and
q Single mill in process of construct
ion. The power is ample to handle
the entire machinery and plenty to
spare. They have an electric light
plant for lighting the mill and are
negotiating to light the little city.
They are running but one shift of men
per day now, but soon will double the
force which will make their capacity
about 100000 feet of lumber daily.
The working of the mill is very
interesting, The logs are brought
down from the mountains by che Ala
moRordo and Sacramento mountain
railway and dumped into millpond.
From here they are steered onto an
endless drag chain which pulls them
over and incline to the logway In the

always grateful. The water Is OF the
very best, being piped from the noun

pressure when it reaches the city.
Hose arrangements have been made
which make the baby city practically
safe from fire.
Numerous spacious business houses
are in process of construction as weu
Ma manv neat residences. Notably
among the business buildings under
construction are the following: A large
livery stable and carriage repository
IS by IS feet. The first floor will
be used for livery purposes while the
second story will be- used as q carriage
and wagon repository. It is owned and
will be occupied by Frank Stuart who

tain and plain could unite in the build
ing of little city and how well he had
chosen he would leave with the guests
to decide. Each of the gentlemen was
called upon to contribute to the
flow of soul of the evening.
The response of Britton Davis
and that of County Commissioner D.
M. Sutherland were especially appro-
pirate. Mr.. Davis spoke of the stream
in which Ell Paso and Alamogordo
doated as having an eddy" which in
its whirling around had drawn the
cities closer together while Mr.Suther-
land said that the Eddy brothers had
been called promoters but he with
others in the neighborhood called
them their ''rescuers." He said that
many years ego he had settled in that
valley expecting the "Whise Oaks''
road to be built from Ell Paso in q short
time. He had been, practically speak
ing, imprisoned there waiting for the

BOX FACTORY.
The best slabs are partially used In
making lath but large amount Of
them have been stored away to be used
in making box material which issto be-
come one of the branch industries of the
big plant. Mr.. Davidson, the superin-
tendent of the mill, is q man OF large
experience in the business and he
surrounded himself with such
competent workmen, in constructing
the plant and putting it In operation
that everything moved of like clock
work when the mill was started up.
Like the writer, no doubt many read
ers of the HERALD wondered why q
saw mill should be placed fifteen to
twenty miles away from the timber
supply but q trip to Alamogordo and
then to the mountains where the logs
are concentrated and loaded for chip
ment down the mountain will convince
the most skeptical of the wisdom Of
the management in arranging theiS
affairs in this manner. BY SO dOih g

the mountains they would not only be
cramped for room for their plant but
could not make as pleasant homes as
they can in the valley. Here will be
railroad shops aud other enterprises
which will help to build up q colony.
and good schools as we'll as many other
advantages will accrue.
