MISS BRUGUIERE's RECITAL.

The musical recital Mt Odd Fellows
Opera House Monday night given by
Miss Mathilde l.. Bruguiere, of New Or
leans, was an unqualified success. This
song bird of the South touched the hearts
OF all who heard her. In her simple
melodies her voice is low and gentle,
like the blowing Of the spring breeze.
In rendering scientific pieces where
strength and tone are necessary the
music of the storm, the power of the
thunder, could both be heard. Take it
all in all, Miss Bruguiere's highly cul-
tured and natural voice is something
rarely equaled, and Scranton was hon
ored by her presence.
Miss Mamie Mallory, the accompanist,
is also of New Orleans, and has we'll
earned reputation for skillfulness and
artistic ability on the piano.

De VARGAS GRANT SOLD.
The Prices Realized We're From 10 to 81
Gents Per Acre,

The sale of about 5000 acres of the
Sebastian de Vargas grant under de-
cree of court was made this morning by
Hon. Amado Chaves, referee. The land
was sold in tracts to suit purchasers,
from eighty to GAO acres, and the bidding
was quite spirited, though prices were
low. The average price realized was
about 80 cents an acre, the lowest being
Is cents and the highest 81 cents per
acre. H. B. Cartwright g. Bro We're the
largest purchasers, obtaining over $500
acres, most of which adjoins other
property of theirs. Telesforo Rivera
bought over 300 acres said to be val
liable for mineral. w. M. Berger OBJ
tanned the tract which is considered best
for agriculture. Inocencio Gonzales Sc
cured his own ranch, on the south road.
Among the other purchasers were M. j.
Nagle, l.. B. Prince, j. H. Blain, Alta
nasio Romero, Fred Muller and G. j.
Wood. The prices realized were low, but
considering the amount of mountain
land included in the sale, were perhaps
all that could be expected at this time.

MESCALERO INDIANS
Their Large Reservation Is to Be
Thrown Open Soon to
Settlers.
BILL FAYORABLY REPORTED
Mineral Wealth Exists On the Reservation
There is Also Valuable Timber On
the Mountains -Indianst to Receive
Allotments.

The committee ON Indian affairs of
the house of representatives has made
favorable report upon joint resolu
ton which provides for the allotment of
lands on the Mescalel Apache Indian
reservation in Otero co,snty, and pro-
vides for the sale of the residue of the
lands on the reservation for the use Of
the Indians. The committee states in
it's report that there are Only IA Mesca-
lerO Apaches on the reservation, and
that it contains 474240 acres of land.
After giving each individual Indian an
allotment of 100 acres of land aggre-
eating 71,040 acres, there would remain
403,200 acres to be thrown open to settle
ment. Since the building of the FL Paso
& Northeastern railway this large body
of land is in demand for settlement, and
is necessary for the development of that
part of New Mexico. The mountains on
the reservation have valuable timber
and rich mineral deposits, and the bot
tom lands are good grazing and agricul-
tural lands.
The committee also reports that the
Indians are sufficiently advanced in civ
ilization to have their lands allotted to
them. Out of this tribe of 444 Indians
there are enrolled los children in the
school, with an average attendance OF
ninety-seven. There are eighty-six
houses on the reservation occupied by
these Indians. OF the tribe. 142 speak
the English language. They own 1880
horses, mules and burros, 40 cattle, 1000
sheep and 300 goats.
The resolution provides that the sec
retary of the interior shall order an in
spector sent to the agency to allot the
lands among the Indians and to negoti
ate with the tribe for the relnquish-
ment of all interest of it's members in
the unallotted portion of the reserva-
ton. A proviso to the resolution recites
that the United States shall make no
payment for the REIMBURSEMENT of title
by the Indians until the receipt of funds
from the sale of the lands, and, as fast
as the lands are opened for settlement
and sold, the money received from such
lands shall be paid into the United
States treasury and credited to the In
dians. sWa

Some More Democratic Tom Foolery About
Sympathy With the Beers.

| Washington, April THE Republic.
an members of the house decided not tc
allow protracted debate on the motion
to concur in the amendments on the
Porto Rican bill next Wednesday. A
special rule will be framed which will
bring the motion to vote after several
hours debate. Both sides are using
their utmost endeavors to get every alb
sentee to Washington. The opposition
will make the first fight on the adoption
of the rule, but the Republicans are
canvassing the situation, and express
great confidence in their ability to put
| through the program agreed upon at
the Republican caucus on Thursday by
a larger majority than that secured for
| the original bill.
Mr.. Richardson of Tennessee, the floor

That this house views with deep inter
est the heroic struggle of the republics
in South Africa to maintain their inde-
pendence, and we hereby tender them
our most profound sympathy in their
unequal but gallant struggle
THAT resolution should go to the COM
mttee on foreign affairs" observed Mr..
Payne of New York, floor leader of the
majority.
did I understand the gentleman to
object?" asked Mr.. Richardson.
II did," replied Mr.. Payne.
The afternoon was devoted to eulo-
gies of r. P. Bland.
Bills were passed to set apart certain
lands in Arizona as public park, to be
known as the Petrifled Forest National
Park; to extend the time for proof and
payment on lands claimed under the
desert land law by members of the Col
orado Cooperative Colony in south
western Colorado; to extend the public
land laws to Alaska. The agricultural
appropriation bill was reported. Chair
man Wordsworth gave notice that he
would call it up on Monday. Mr.. Rich
ardson asked the unanimous consent of

whom was referred his resolution eX-
tending sympathy to the Beers, to have
leave to report any time. Mr.. Payne OBJ
iected.
SENATE.
Washington. April 7.-Mr. Jones of
Arkansas offered the following resolu-
ton, which was adopted: "That the Sec
retary of the treasury be directed to
transmit to the senate statement of
the action of the state department in
the case of George Kruse, a resident of
Porto Rico alleged to have been
brought to New York to labor in the
United States, together with all copies
of all correspondence in the case, and
be further directed to inform the SEN
ate what steps, if any, have been taken
to prosecute for violating the alien con-
tract labor law the person, firm or cor
poration entering into contract with
said Kruse." The consideration of the
Indian appropriation bill was then re-
sumed.

along this line would annually add at
least 1000 cars of traffic for an indefi-

| least 1000 cars of traffic for an indef-
mite period.
| ESTIMATED POPULATION.
The present population of the line
from Magdalena to Chloride is conserv.
atively estimated at 5,0O0 which would
be more than quadrupled within one
year after the construction of the rail
way, and of course each new man would
become an active producer and con-
sumer. At present about 100 cars OF
merchandise are annually hauled into
the region by wagons. The advent of a
railway would multiply the importa-
tions from five to ten times. This esti-
mate does not include machinery for the
mines and mills and building material
and mining supplies, which latter would
amount to more than $50 cars per year,
both building and mining being at a
standstil owing to the absence of rail-
way facilities. The building of rail-
way would revive the mining industry
to such an extent that the section would
soon forge to the front as the Cripple
Creek of New Mexico. The entire Black
Range is vast mineralzed area, and
the Black Range and Apache districts,
producers for years, with possibilities
beyond estimate, are as yet practically
untouched.
AVERAGE DAILY TONNAGE.
Conservative and moderate estimates
PLACE the immediate average daily tom
mage of the Magdalena- Chloride line in
|round numbers as follows: Ore, 25 cars !;
live stock, 2-3 cars; merchandise, ties,
lumber, etc, 4 1-3 cars; total, "a cars.
Judging from the fact that the annual
tonnage in and out of Silver City is not
less than twenty cars per day, it is be-
lieved that the tonnage of Chloride
alone would nearly equal the foregoing
estimate. The cost of constructing and
equipping the Magdalena- Chloride line
is estimated at s1,41s6 so, and the an
nual earnings at $405,255.
REPORTS AND CORRESPONDENCE.
The statements made in the prospect
us relative to the feasibility of the line
and the resources of the country tribu-
tary to it are supported by numerous
reports and letters from railroad en-
gineers, mining and timber experts, and
persons prominent in official and busi-
ness circles who are familiar with the
facts These testimonials are uniform
ly and unequivocally favorable to the
projected line. Among the most signifl-
cant of the letters are those from E. P.
Ripley, president, and Aldace F. Walk
err chairman of the executive board, of
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rail-
way Company, wherein assurances Of
all the support they can consistently af-
ford the enterprise are given.
