LECTURE ON THE CLIFF DWELLINGS.
It Will Be Given at the Court House on
Tuesday Evening.

There is decided awakening to the
fact that this southwest section of the
United States Is of great interest to the
scientist and fine field for study and
research. In all this section Of Colo
RADIO, Arizona and New Mexico, the
latter is probably unequalled in the
extent of historic and prehistoric ruin
and within radius of 30 miles of Santa
Fe there Is for the student of geology,
ethnology and archaeology, spot, un-
surpassed in the world. The realization
of this is to appreciate the advantages
at the very door of Santa Fe. A proper
appreciation and preservation OF this
section will eventually make of 1t one
of the most sought by tourists from all
parts of the world. Professor E. L..
Hewett, the president of the New Mex
leo Normal university ut Las Vegas,
made special study of this section of
late years, and rare opportunity Is
now offered to Santa Fe people to hear
and learn something Of prehistoric
archaeology during the coming winter
under his direction. President Hewett
will be in Santa Fe over Tuesday night
of this week and will make an address
at the court house to which all are cor
daily invited.

"OLD ABE" KILLED.
A Big Silver Tipped Bear Killed on the
Upper Pecos.


Crestino Rivera, a ranchman on the
upper Pecos, lays claim to having killed
the biggest bear of the season, If not the
biggest ever brought to bay in northern
New Mexico. This was a silver tip and
weighed 800 pounds. He was caught in
a trap and then shot and it took dozen
rife balls to put an end to his career.
For years sportsmen have known that
tremendous silver tip bear infested the
upper Pecos. but none cared to tackle
him, and so frequently was he seen that
he was given the name, "Old Abe" and
commonly known by that cognomen.
Many think that this is the big bear
trapped and killed by Rivera. The
cattle herds of ranchmen and others
have suffered from his raids for years.

The PECOS VALLEY EXTENSION.
Second Survey in the Field and Will Soon
Be Completed.

The New Mexican is informed from
Roswell that the second survey OF the
extension of the Pecos Valley & North
eastern railway from Roswell to Ell Paso
is progressing nicely and will soon be
completed, As far as the survey has
been completed it has been found to be
correct and going over the best route
obtainable.
The New Mexican's informant states
that as soon as the second survey is com.
pleted and approved, the impression is
that work ON the extension from some
point on the Hagerman system, probably
the town of Hagerman, southwest will
be commenced and will be pushed to
speedy completion and that very likely
trains will be run over the route by the
first OF December, 1901.
