citizen and enterprlsing boot and shoe
manufacturer, of Ell Paso, was wei
come visitor to THE News office Satur-
day, on his return home from a weeks
outing at Cloudcroft. This was Mr..
Rokahr's first trip to the Breathing
Spot of the southwest, and like all
others, he fell in love with that famous
resort. He stated that he was not an
invalid, neither was he sick man, but
the outing had benefited him immen' 'e-
ly and he felt altogether like new
being, and was sorry he had not made
the trip earlier in the season so that he
could have remained a longer time. He
has purchased lot; wtll erect a cot

first visitors next season, and spend the
summer there. He will endeavOr to ar
range business so that he can spend
his Sundays up there, also. Mr.. Rokahr
is one of the solid business men OF FL
Paso, and his trade is increasing rapid

workmen, and turns out on an average
OF two hundred pairs of cowboy boots a
month, besides doing large repairing
business. Some months ago he wen

but states the venture was not success
and that El Paso is the only city in th'
west, and Cloudcroft the only summer
resort on the continent.

THE JUDGMENT AFFIRMED.
Celebrated Elephant Butte Dam
Case Before the New Mexico
Supreme Court.
ANOTHER INVESTOR At CLOUDCROFT.
Charles ROkahr, of El PasO, Visited the
Famous Resort, Purchased Lot and :
Will at Once Erect Cottage.

The New Mexico supreme court Fri
day affirmed the judgment of the lower
court in the celebrated Elephant
Butte Dam case. The following extract
is from the New Mexican OF August 25th:
United States VS.. The Rio Grande
Dam and Irrigation company; affirmed.
The latter is what is known as the
Elephant Butte dam case, and is by far
the most generally interesting to New
Mexico people of all the cases decided
at this term. This decision stands as
another defeat for the national govern
ment in its efforts to infringe upon the
rights which the people of New Mexico
and Colorado have to the use of the
waters of the Rio Grande and its tribu
taries, and to pander to the interests
of few political schemers and town
lot boomers owning lands on the inter
national boundary line at Ell Paso and
Juarez, Mexico. The supreme court in
passing upon the case, sent it back to
the third judicial district of New Mexi-
co for further investigation on the
point whether the impoundng of
waters at the Elephant Butte site would
serve naturally to decrease the flow in
the Rio Grande at that point where the
stream was admitted to be ''navigable"
800 miles below El Paso. Judge Par
ker heard the case, and decided it
against the government, and the feder-
al attorneys appealed to the territorial
supreme court on fourteen assignments
OF error, among them being one to the
effect that "the statement of facts con-
tained in the courts finding does not
justify the court in finding as matter
Of <act and concluding therefrom that
amount Of water proposed to be ap-
[opriated and impounded at Elephant
Butte by the defendants will not sub
stantially diminish the navigable ca
pacity of the Rio Grande within the
bpresent limits of navigability. That
the court erred in refusing to reopen the
case upon application of the plaintiff
and to permit the obtaining of addition
al evidence to establish facts neces-
sary to proper determination of the
case.
Chief Justice Mills wrote the opinion
in the case, holding that there was no
error in the proceedings in the lower
court, and fully sustaining Judge Par
ker's decision. United States Attorney
w. B. Childers gave no notice of appeal,
and in response to reportorial inquiries
stated he was awaiting instructions
from Washington.

The diffident young man had wanted

that the practice thereof was differ

He was walking with her one even

her shoe became united. She stuck out
her pretty little foot with smile, look

and tied the lace. Then he walked on
with her and the shoe became united
again. The third time IL happened he

The rage for out door exercise that
has taken possession of the American
girls of late years is already bringing
forth its legitimate fruits, and unbiased
observers declare that they are growing
in grace and comeliness every year.
They are taller, straighter and more
healthful looking than were those OF a
generation ago. The increasing oppor-
tunities for physical culture and open
air exercise have undoubtedly brought
about this change. Girls are learning
that the first essential to good looks
is good health and that health depends
on plenty Of exercise.
