MRS. BECKHAM
 IN GETHSEMANE
She Was the Second Woman to Pass the Portals of the
 Troppist Monastery

Gethsemane, Ky, June 5.-When Mrs. Beckham, wife of Governor Beckham of Kentucky, passed the portals of the fa- nous old Trappist Monastery of Geth- semane today, she carried with her the distinction of being the second woman that has ever had the honor to disturb the monastic peace of this beautiful old monastery.
 The party was led to the porter's lodge over which is the sign which forbids wo- men to enter under pain of excommunica- tion. Mrs. Beckham glanced at the sign and then at the lay brother in his brown coat whose duty it is to prevent feminine invasion. But for once the monk was dis armed and the woman rustled proudly by into the sacred domain of the Trappist ascetics. The ban for the time being was removed and the brothers momentarily peered through their cowls in extending courtesy.
 At dinner rendered by Father Obrecht Governor Beckham spoke of former visit he had made with party of young men and women.
 We were graciously received by Fa- ther Edward. who was then the abbot" he said, but we were forbidden these sacred precincts. The young woman with me peered into the door and expressed desire to go in. When MT. BecSham is Governor and you are Mrs. Beckham, you may enter said Father Edward with faint smile. The young woman who blushed then was Jean Fuqua now Jean Fuqua Beckham. A mans ambition and woman's curiosity have now opened the gates of the monastery to us both"
 The Governors party consisted of twen- ty members. The abbot also had twenty guests. which included some of the noted Catholic clergymen and bishops in the country.
 The wife of ex-Governor Proctor Knott was the first woman to ever visit the monastery.

The Indians desire to pro- test against the opening of their reser- vations to white settlers under the act of Congress passed last winter Lone Wolf and his companions were aecompan- jed to the White House by Judge William Springer. Secretary Hitchcock had not seen Lone Wolf and his companions, but said that unless they were able to pre- sent some more substantial reasons than he knew of, their representations would not delay the opening of the reservations. He said that more than majority of the chiefs had given their consent and that the law was mandatory so far as he was concerned.

your action within legal bounds that your appointees would be seated In the Senate when that body meets in December and hold their seats until the Legislature should act in January. My chief regret is that I am forced by your action to engage in what the outside world will consider game of opera bouffe, by with drawing my own resignation after Sena- tor McLaurins undignified and puerile action;s but the purpose for which 1t was rendered has been thwarted by Senator McLaurin's precipitious acceptance of ex- ecutive advice.
 ''Bob Acres has been outdone for once. I have already said I had no motive or purpose in resigning except that to force McLaurin's, and there is nothing for me to do but to accept the situation and withdraw my own resignation, if it be lawful to do so."

pany May Erect Its Mill There.
Special to the New Mexican.
Lordsbulg, Sept. II, 19O1.-A party of
mining men interested in and represent
ing the American Consolidated Copper
company of New York is here making a
careful examination of its copper proper
ties with a view of deciding upon the
erection of plant and method of treat
ment which the company will install.
The company has more than 10000 tons
of ore on its dumps and is continually
opening up new ore bodies. In view of
the fact that its mines are only three
miles from this place it is believed it will
decide to locate its mills here. However,
the officers of the company decline to
give any information as to its future
plans. The company is also largely in
terested in the Burro mountain mining
district, 81 miles northeast of here, but
considering the fact that its largest ton
mage is so near this place, it is thought
that Lordsburg will be selected as the
point most practical for the establish
ment of the plant. In the party are A.
B. Gibson, of Santa Fe, president OF the
company; William 2. Mcdonald, of New
York, secretary; D. A. Walker, of Col
umbus, Ohio, treasurer; Colonel s. L..
Bean, of New York; Henry Cook, of Ell
Paso, and w. j. Sapp, of Silver City

The ALBUQUERQUE FAIR.
Its Special Advertising Oar Reached Santa
Fe Last Evening.

The management of the Twenty irst
Annual Territorial Fair to be held at
Albuquerque from October 18th to the
10Th inclusive, are making the effort of
their lives to make this event excipse
and snrpass all previous fairs held in
New Mexico. They have adopted cir
Gus methods of advertising, and spe-
cial car handsomely decorated with
streamers and Autographs, containing a
full corps of bill posters arrived here
last evening, and has posted and billed
the town.
The races will undoubtedly be the best
ever witnessed in the southwest. The
half-mile level track in the suburbs of
the city is in perfect condition, and
gallopers and harness horses are daily
exercising on it. The grandstand is
large and commodious, with a seating
capacity of five thousand, and is surrou-
ded by nice shade trees and green grass
thereby making it very pleasant and
cool place.
One thousand dollars is good round
sum for the first prize in the base ball
tournament, and four hundred dollars
for second prize is not to be sneezed at,
and it will bring to the territory the
cleverest and fastest ball players in the
business.
The roping contest will be stirring,
handsome purse of $225.0O has been
offered. The Mexico vaqueros with the
picturesque costumes, fancy saddles and
brides, and skilfully trained mustangs,
will be on hand to compete with those
from Texas, New Mexico and Arizona.
If ever there was time when New
Mexico should make superb exhibit of
the untold resources of the territory,
that time will be at the fair this fall,
when number of national congressman
and senators will be present, The men
who can see the mineral and agricultu-
raj and other resources of New Mexico
jttingly and justly presented must be-
come strong champions of the territory's
claim.
