OUT or HIS MIND.
Edward Davis Tried to Kill 0. W. Alex
ander at OArrillos.

Edward Davis, a mining prospector,
who has hibernated about the CerrilIos
hills for many years, was brought to
the city in irons this forenoon and
placed in the county Jail. He is insane
and a dangerous subject. Yesterday
morning he took his Winchester and
went man hunting. He found o. w.
Alexander peacefully engaged in his Or
chard near Cerrillos, and he undertook
to take a shot at him. Mr.. Alexander
fled through the orchard and went to
Cerrillos. Sheriff Kinsell was wired for,
and last evening he went to Davis cab
in and took him in custody. Davis has
long been considered off his mental bal
ance, but never became violent before.
He has resided within one or two miles
of Cerrillos for five years, and In all
that time never visited the town until
taken in by Sheriff Kinsell last night.
He secured a living by washing gold
from Galisteo creek and the gulches,
and traded his dust to peddlers for sup
plies. He will probably be sent to the
asylum for the insane at Las Vegas.

In THE GUANO CAYBS
Hon. John R. DeMier Speaks in an
Entertaining Manner Of New
Industry.
WORK OF MYRIADS OF BATS
The Habits of tho Useful Little Animals
A Big Demand for the Guano-
It Is Used in California
Orchards.

Hon. John r. DeMier, former super
intendent of the penitentiary, seems to
have caught on to good thing finan-
cially down in Socorro county. He talk
ed entertainingly yesterday of his work
in the bat caves. nine miles out from
Lava station, from whence he ships
nine car loads Of guano per month to
California citrus fruit growers. "Those
little black bats are worry useful to the
farmer and orchardist" said he. "In the
caves where We are operating countless
thousands of them make their home.
They are nocturnal hustlers, sleeping
by day and foraging for food at night.
About dusk they begin to pour out of
the cave, not from the larger and main
opening at the side Of the cave, but
from a smaller hole nearer the top,
which seems to have been their original
doorway before the larger opening was
caused by a cave-in. 1t illustrates the
force Of habit with them-they follow
thus closely In the line of their ances-
tors. 1t requires an hour to empty the
cave. They pour out in a stream about
feet thick by feet wide, and all fly
about in swarm near the cave till the
last bat Is out then in jiffy they dis
perse. flying hither and thither in
search of food. They seem to be thor
oughly drilled and under the command
of boss bat. After foraging all night
they begin to return about dawn. APP
parently the females come in first.
These carry their young with them, like
mice, hanging on to the mothers
breasts, and are accorded, it seems,
special privileges, as they are generally
given time to come home and get COM
fortably located on the ceiling of the
cave before the rank and file come in.
During the day the bats rest by hang
ing to the ceiling, then one to another
feet thick. Frequently it happens that
a sucking "looses his ma" and he goes
roofing around the flock searching for
her and making great chatter.
USEFULNESS OF THE BATS.
Their usefulness to the farmer is
threefold. They destroy the pests and
insects that otherwise would ruin veg
citation; they deposit the guano, and
when they die their bones turn Into
lime, phosphates and ammonia, that
make the best fertilizer known to sci
ence. Here in these immense caves.
having many compartments, the bats
have made their home for thousands Of
years; the deposit Of guano cannot be
worked out in generations, and repeat
ed analysts shows that there is no de-
posit in the world so rich In plant food
as this one.
A NEW INDUSTRY.
"Up to date we have shipped ninety
car loads of guano. Los Angeles. River
side and San Diego. Cal, are the prin-
cipal market centers. The orange and
lemon growers Of southern California
use from 600 to 1900 pounds Of it per
acre per year. and they must have It,
1t is new industry for New Mexico.
and it is an immensely profitable one
Perhaps other caves may be discovered
in New Mexico carrying equally rich
deposits Of this fertilizer
