at once an organization for the purpose
of building at that place college for
girls A charter was filed and the or
ganization will be perfected in short
time The name of the institution is
to be the Monte Vista College and the
capital stock will be $4,000. The pro-
iecJ meets with the strong approval OF
all the citizens of Roswell. 1t will be
a fireat benefit to the town in many
ways and will give the girls of the
whole valley and the country adjacent
practically the same advantage that
the military institute of that place
gives the boys. 1t is to be joint
stock concern which if properly man
aged will certainly pay and bring an
addition to the volume of business of
the town. 1t will be non-sectarian.
BIG FARM SOLD NEAR ROSWELL.
S. H. Chisholm. vice-president of the
American Steel & Wire company. of
Cleveland, o., has purchased from
Frank Diver an 300 acre alfalfa farm
near Roswell. He has ample means
and will make important improvements
on the place. He has bought it for
his son. Clifton, who has formed a
partnership with III. G. Lee, of ROs-
| well. for the purpose of engaging in
| the live stock business.
HURT HIS FACE.
Charles Shepherd. grocer clerk of
Roswell. went hunting on Sunday and
got his face mangled. He had Win
chester shotgun which did not work
satisfactorily and snapped with him
several times. He finally succeeded in
firing it. but in some way the slide had
become loose and was blown backward
| into his face. 1t plowed a furrow
| through his cheek making a deep and
painful wound. At last report he was
doing as we'll as could be expected.
GOOD ADVERTISERS.
There is no firm in Roswell which
does more systematic advertising than
j. Calisher & Co., the dry goods mer-
chants. They write good ads. they
change them every week and they take
space enough to allow the printer to
give the proper display, all of which is
positive proof that they understand
their business. Another proof is that
they find it pays-and that is the very
best proof.-Roswell Register.

MEXICO.
HOTEL BURNED.

The hotel of the Mexican Interna-
tional railroad in the city of Monolova
was destroyed by fire. The entire struc-
ture was burned to the ground and it
was with great difficulty that the adj
joining buildings were saved. There
were many exceedingly narrow escapes
and many lives would have unques-
tionably been lost but for the prompt
and efficient actions of the night yard
crew. who succeeded in bringing out
several persons from the burning ho-
tel. who were almost unconscious from
the smoke. They also saved several
trunks of wearing apparel and some of
the furniture of the hotel. Quite a
number of the dodgers, however, lost
| their clothing and both Americans and
MeXicanS turned out to assist those
| who were temporarily without shelter
and also supplied them with apparel.
1t is the intention of the railroad COM
pany to at once begin the construc-
ton on a new hotel which will be the
equal if not superior to any other in
the republic and in addition will erect
an up-to-date bath house.
SAD DEATH.
w. w. Schmitz. employed for the
past year as cashier of the FundiciOn
Mexicana de Tipos in the City of Mex
leo, died of consumption in Puebla. A
short time ago he started to go to
Oaxaca for the benefit of his health,
but when he arrived at Puebla he be-
came too i'll to travel any farther and
died there. He was buried there and
Immediately after his interment word
was received from his relatives in San
Francisco to ship the remains there.
Permission was secured to disinter the
body but by that time too much time
had elapsed to allow disinterment and
the remains were left in the grave at
Puebla. Mr.. Schmitz was formerly in
the newspaper business in San Fran
cisco.
CANDY MAKER SCALDED.
w. G. Sparrowe, a candy maker in
the candy factory of La Imperial in
the City of Mexico. was badly scalded
by splitting a kettleful of hot syrup on
himself. He was walking backwards
across one of the rooms in the factory
carving kettle of boiling hot syrup
and accidentally fell over an empty
kettle which he could not see and as
he fell he threw the entire scalding
contents of the kettle over himself, in
ficting horrible wounds. He was taken
to his home and physicians called.
They said he was not necessarily fatal
" injured but he will be compelled
to remain indoors for several weeks.
His arms and body are terribly burned.
DUEL TO DEATH.
The report comes from Los Angeles.
Tamaulipas, that two prominent citi-
zens of that city fought a duel TO the
death They were Colonel Julio Val
DEE and Judge Daniel A. Ramirez. They
met, quarreled and fought, but their
weapons are not named in the report.
Judge Ramirez received mortal
wound, living but few hours.

his company had wells on the hill from
