IMPORTANT If TRUE.
A Discovery Of Quicksilver Reported from
the Upper Pecos,

From Las Vegas comes the report
that Elmer Robinson, Of Cebolla, and
DR.. Sargent, of Mora, are opening a
QUICKSILVER mine at the head of the
Pecos. 1t promises rich returns, as re-
tort tests have shown paying quantities
of the mineral" 50 it is said. Santa Fe
miners should jump astride of this re-
port and run 1t down to its source,
which may be the head of the Pecos.
Very important quicksilver deposits
have Of late been opened in northern
Texas, and it Is not improbable but that
they may extend across New Mexico In
somewhat the same way as the true"
copper belt, which is readily traceable
through northern Texas across New
Mexico to the continental divide.

Great Interest in the Labor Day
Shooting Tournament.
There were more gunners out on the
Eastern branch marshes today than on
either of the preceding open days Of the
season. and there was an equally notice
able increase IN the number Of ortolan,
while reed birds were also more numerous

ing closer together The very rank growth
OF oats the marshes makes pushing
boat through them impossible even to the
most expert of pushers, and consequently
the ortolan. save those along the edges Of
the oat fields. are safe, and big bags are
out OF the question. The best bag recorded
so far was secured Thursday by Frank
Petrola, who killed thirty-eight.
Interest OF local sportsmen is weinigh
intense over the Labor day tournament to
be held September ) at Stubener's. on the
Bladensburg road, near Highlands. The
events at clay pigeons for 2S-bore guns will
be the first ever held in this country, and
will be watched with great animation for
the purpose Of determining just what the
little fellows can accomplish in the way OF
SCATTERING targets.
There Is also much speculation over the
outcome OF the live pigeon match between
Phil Stubener and Ralph Nutting The for
Uer. who Is veteran at the traps, has
agreed 10 shoot any bore gun that Mr. Nut
ting may select The latter's preference
recently has been a 20-gauge, and 1t was
said today that both. men would handle Mr.
Nutting's gun of that caliber.
There will also be clay pigeon events for
II bore guns. and altogether the meeting
promises to be one OF the best ever held in
this vicinity.

but very brief time until a battle royal
was in progress and the white boys were
put to fight. While the latter were run
ming a number OF stones or bricks were
thrown al them by members Of the attack
ing party and one OF the missiles struck
Krahling and knocked him to the ground.
He was picked up in an unconscious con-
dition by his comrades and carried to his
home about q square away, whence he was
removed to the Homeopathic Hospital.
There, for some days, he lowered between
life and death, but has finally become able
to go about and out of doors. He was
not put upon the stand at today's hearing
because, as was stated by Prosecutor Null
lowry. of the condition of his mind.
Until Policeman F. NJ. Dent, who was the
last witness for the government, took the
stand, there had been no testimony to show
who was Krahling's Cssailant. but Mr.. Dent
declared Buchanan confessed at the fifth
precinct station. at which place he sur
rendered himself after hearing he was sus-
pected of the crime, that he was the boy
who struck Krahling. and that all the others
under arrest were in the gang at the time
of the assault Also that most Of them
were provided with either bricks or stones.
The defense denies that Buchanan made
a confession; also that they were armed as
charged and that whoever struck Krahling
did so in self-defense. The case was still
pending when this report closed.
