the school of mines. The attendance
has been larger, the work of higher
and more satisfactory order, and pub
lie interest more manifest than any
preceding year. The outlook Is also
brighter than ever before. The atten-
dance already promises to be much
greater next year; the 34th general as
sembly generously increased the fixed
revenue of the school 20 per cent and
the sum of $13,36S is now available for
permanent improvements from the
lease and sale of public lands recently
donated to the institution by an act of
congress.
Too much can not be said in COM
| mendation in the management of the
! affairs of the school by the present
I board of trustees. The institution is in
! the phenomenal condition of not being
burdened by a single dollars indebted
ness. 1t is the settled policy of the
board to maintain this condition.
PERMANENT IMPROVEMENTS
At the last meeting of the board OF
trustees there was appropriated out of
the permanent improvement fund of
the school $1,000 for an assay building
and equipment, $1,000 for hot water
heating plant, $1,000 for chemical and
physical equipment $1,000 for improve
ment on the main building, and $4,000
for machinery. These improvements
will be entered upon at once and COM
pleted before the beginning of the next
years work. The institution will thus
be placed in position to fulfill the
purpose of it's establishment to a much
fuller extent than has before been pos
Sible.

known to be one of the most eloquent
and forcible speakers of New Mexico,
and expectation was at high pitch
not only on account of the speakers
reputation but also because his subject,
= the relation of the school of mines to
the mining interests of New Mexico,
was one that appealed strongly to his
audience. That expectation was more
than realized in the eloquent and mas
terly address which followed.
! ADDRESS OF COLONEL PRICHARD
AS the address was delivered entirely
without notes only a brief synopsis Is
possible. In his introduction the speak
er related the incidents which led to the
establishment of the school of mines.
He stated that in 1889, while he was Il
member of the territorial Legislature,
committee of which he was member,
met in a room in the Palace hotel at
Santa Fe to draft bill for the estab-
lishment of an asylum for New Mex1-
cos insane. A proposition was then
made to establish a school of mines and
other educational institutions for the
territory. The proposition resulted in
the formulation of an omnibus bill
providing for the establishment of the
various territorial institutions as they
now exist. The speaker stated that he
favored the establishment of a school
of mines at that time, had supported
the institution ever since, and if he
were now asked what law relating to
the interest of the territory deserved
most to the best interest of the terri
tory, he would point to the fourteen
sections of the omnibus bill which pro-

tuition and fundamental laws of the
United States. The charter of the
school OF mines provides for this. The
constitution of the United States
should lie on the same table with the
Bible. A knowledge of the conditions
preceding the adoption of the constitu-
ton, of the constitution itself, and Of
the fundamental laws of the land
should be impaired to every child.
Thence will be derived a due apprecia-
ton of the rights and duties of citizen
ship.
In conclusion Colonel Prichard stated
that he had been asked by a citizen Of
Socorro to incorporate in his address a
few words on statehood. He declared
that he was emphatically in favor Of
statehood and that the one argument
which he had found to be unanswerable
for that position was contained in the
question, rs it possible to conceive
that matters would be worse under
statehood than they now are?" Hop
ing that the school of mines would be
soon the greatest educational institu-
ton of the state of New Mexico, the
speaker made his parting bow to a de-
lighted and enthusiastic audience.
AWARDING OF DIPLOMAS.
The awarding of diplomas and pres
entation of the c. T. Brown gold medal
was the last exercise on the regular
commencement program. Diplomas
were awarded in the various courses as
follows: Prospecting, A. B. Richmond;
preparatory, Merle Blinn, Margaret

The Public is Not Taken in Conf

VERY MUCH ANXIETY FELT
The War Office Does Not Deny the Rumor
from Boer Sources That the British
Were Defeated Near Pretoria
Last Month.

London, June 1.-The reticence OF the
government regarding the battle OIL
Vladfontein and other military events
of some Importance which recently oc-
Cured at widely separated points In
South Africa, caused considerable anx-
iety. This is in no way allayed by the
curious answer of the war office today
to a question regarding the accuracy or
otherwise of recent Boer report that
the British We're severely defeated near
Pretoria on May 2, losing 46 killed, 50
wounded, 600 prisoners and six guns.
The reply of the war office was 1--WE
have no official informationT" and
aroused some misgivings.
APPEALS FOR PEACE.
London, June 1.-The Sun today pub
fishes sensational story to the effect
that General Botha arrived at Stander-
ton, and is communicating by telegraph
with Mr.. Kruger, through the Neither
lands, appealing to Kruger to sue for
peace. Kitchener is said to have given
Botha permission to adopt this course.
The Sun further hears that 10000 Zu-
lus have gone on the war path owing
to the Boer raids into Zululand.

Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican.
Socorro, N. M, June /, 19Ol.-The
most successful year in the history OF
the New Mexico School of Mines closed
last night with commencement exer-
cises that far outshown any ever before
witnessed in the city of Socorro. The
capacious Garcia opera house had been
tastefully and profusely decorated for
the occasion. The walls were draped
with the national colors and the yellow
and white, emblematic colors of the
school of mines. The stage presented
a beautiful effect in banks of flowers
and bunting.
Promptly at o'clock what was
doubtless the largest and most select
audience ever assembled in the city on
such an occasion filled the large audi
torium of the opera house to It's fullest
seating capacity. On the stage were
seated as guests of the school of mines
for the evening, Colonel George w.
Prichard, the speaker of the evening;
Hon. Daniel Fl. Mcmillan, associate
justice of the 5th judicial district; Cap
tain M. Cooney, mayor of Socorro;
Captain Jack Crawford, the poet scout;
and other distinguished guests, besides
members of the board of trustees and
the faculty of the school Of mines. Al
ter an earnest invocation by Rev. Jo-
seph Mcconnell and a vocal solo by
Mrs Nathan Hall, Colonel George w.
Prichard delivered the address Of the
evening.
AS Colonel Prichard stepped forward
to be introduced to the audience he was
greeted with enthusiastic and long con-
tinued applause. The colonel is well

vide for the creation and maintenance
of the school of mines.
According to the speaker the mining
question is the most vital question in
New Mexico today. 1t has been the
most vital question since the time when
Coronado came and when trains of bull
lion trailed from New Mexico to the
sea to be transported to enrich the cof-
fers of the King of Spain three hun
dred years ago. Growth and investiga-
ton have resulted logically in the es-
tablishment of the school of mines and
to no small extent through it's agency
the territory is destined to become one
of the greatest mineral producing ra-
gions of the American continent.
1T was the speakers idea that the
school of mines stands as a symbol of
the mining interests of New Mexico
and that it affords enlightenment as to
what the mining resources of the terri
tory really are; also that such knowl-
edge as is impaired at the institution
would be of material advantage to ev-
cry citizen Of the territory, himself In
cluded. At this point Colonel Prichard
made an earnest and eloquent plea for
continued loyal support of the school
of mines on part of citizens of Socorro.
Let the world know that you intend to
make the institution all the legisla-
ture intended it to be-" said the speak,
er. and the sentiment was praatad with
an enthusiastic round of applause
The speaker next made the state
ment, surprising to some, that the
school of mines is the only educational
institution of the territory in which the
law requires instruction in the consti-
