An exchange tells Of certain man
that In order to save himself an incon
venence, when he had his house re-
modelled, he included an automatic bath
tub. The tub was so arranged that he
could be in bed and upon pushing but
ton the door opened and the tub glided
in from the next room to the side of the
bed, then all he had to do was to roll
over into the tub and take his bath.
The other day he was showing a party
of gentleman friends over the house
when he came to his room and said;
''Let me show you my automatic bath
tub" lie pushed the button. There
was scream, aud the tub came sailing
INTO the room with his wife in it. She
now takes her bath in the wash pan.

An important decision was received
by +. G. Wade on last Monday, says the
Dona Ana Republican, from the general
land Office relative to the claims under
the small holdings act by the Blazer es-
tate against the government. Before
the Mescalero Indian reserve had been
established DR.. Blazer, deceased, had
taken up land in the heart OF what is
now the Mescalcro reservation. In re-
cent years certain government officials
have held the claims as invalid There
are four claims at present, the Mrs.
Blazer estate, the Hedges estate, the
Almer N. Blazer and Jose de Gutierrez

The White Oaks Route has taken up
seven mil9s of its old rail and laid new
60-pound steel rails between mile posts
Is and 25 on the main line. The track
from Captain to the new terminus at
Gray will be laid shortly, which will
about complete the track laying until
work on the new Liberal extension is
commenced. Among the new innova.
tions to be inaugurated by the road is
the opening of the finest city ticket Office
in the west at FL Paso, as soon as the
new Sheldon block is completed.

The Texas & Pacific and the G. II. &
S. A., and state branches, have an
nounced round trip rate of SIS from
all points in Texas on their lines to
Cl0udcroft. Dates of sale will be August
Il and is and September IA and Is, with
q limit Of thirty days for return. This
rate is the result of recent trips
made to Alamogordo and Cloudcroft by
General Passenger Agents Parks and
Turner, to which was added the infu-
ence of White Oaks officials The dates
are considered somewhat late for the
season, but will place Clouderoft in a
position to command immense excursion
traffic next year

Pay Rolls to be Distributed Here
Will Soon be Larger than
Ever Before,
EXTENSION OF MAIN LINE PROBABLE.
Business viii Be Given an Impetus That
VIII Restore Confidence in the
Most Skeptical and Result
in Great Good.

The Immediate future of Alamogordo
is all and more than can be anticipated
by the outsider. The probable extension
OF the main line, and the judicious ad-
vertising of Cloudcroft and consequent
excursion business will give the town an
impetus Ghat will restore confidence to
the most skeptical and will result in
great and permanent good.
The business of the Hotel Alamogordo
continues good despite the dull business
conditions existing in every city during
the hot months, ADMINISTRATION deriving
its patronage from the tourist traffic TO
Cloudcroft. From this it will be noticed
that the Cloudcroft traffic is bound to
prove of immense benefit, not only to
the hotel but to every other business
house in town, and the time will come
when the popular mountain resort will
be considered one of the most important
Of Alamogordos resources. The build
| ing of the road will not take any of the
paying features of the'summer from the
country, bat will add to them materially
| by bringing an additional traffic from
the north and east. Anyone who stops
to consider the feasibility of excursions
from Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Ration, and
all points in Kansas, even as far as Kansas
City, when this section is placed In touch
with those localities, can readily per-
ceive that wealthy. money spending
and investing class of people will be at
tTacted here and that their expenditures
will be distributed among the merchants
here through the natural channels of
business.
Furthermore, the building OF the road
Ato Liberal will make of the
\ y lifTe OAKS route the connecting link of
the shortest routes into Kansas City,
Chicago and st. Louis This means that
it will be the most popular California and
Mexican route and that very little urg
ing will be necessary to induce tourists
to stop atCloudcroft, for the resort will
be advertised most extensively by all the
roads
The railway company has no intention
whatever of moving its general offices
from Aiamogordo. Like all the other
roads it will have city passenger and
freight Office in El Paso, but no more,
unless greater amount of traffic neces-
states establishing small shops there.
The Alamogordo shops will be increased
to five times their present size within the
next two years, and this will be consld-
cred one of the busiest railway towns in
New Mexico. With the mills running
full blast this fall, increased coal ship
ments and increased shopforce, the pay
rolls distributed among the merchants
here will be larger than ever before and
everyone will enjoy prosperity. The
fact that this will be the distributing
point for the railway operations further
on, Is in itself an important item. and
one that means much toward increasing
the general volume of business. There
is no truth whatever in the published
statements that the Rock Island has
purchased a majority of the White Oaks
company's stock.

them to make the command a success.
Capt. Dunn justly feels proud OF the
