Is pnuoluslity a lost art' There
have been a number Of entertainments
given during the wialer aud spring
which were advertised to begin At

commencing nj the appointed time.
There is no excuse for this 10 any Of
the entertainments given, and In q
school entertainment, where children
should be trained in puneluali'y, it is
very much worse. The habit Of being

COMPANY H ENCAMPMENT.
Close of a Pleasant and Successful
Outing for the Soldier Boys,

Company H broke camp Mon
day night after a pleasant and
successful encampmcnt of several
days at Camp Brown. This was
the first military experience of
the kind for the members of the
company and therefore possessed
all the charm of novelty. The
occasion was made all the more
enjoyable by the fact that the
citizens of Socorro manifested a
lively interest in all that pertain
ed to it and by further fact that
a crowd of visitors was almost
constantly in attendance. Dis
cipline was good during the
entire encampment and the work
accomplished was good in every
respect.
1t was the intention of the
company to give their guests a
grand ball Monday night, but
a threatened storm prevented.
The final attraction, therefore,
was the sham battle Monday
evening between the gallant COM
pany and a band of as wild and
reckless Apaches as ever thirsted
for gore or peeled away a scalp.
The shadow of SocOrro mountain
had extended we'll across the
valley of the Rio Grande when
this baud of savages led by their
willy and agile chief, Mayor
Cooney, emerged from among the
cottonwoods near by and fell up
on the camp with the evident
idea of making an easy conquest OF
everything therein from the grub
box to the pet poodle. Captain
Matthews quickly formed his men
in battle array, however, and by
a clever bit of strategy soon had
the Indians running directly to-
ward the beer wagon where they
made a last desperate stand. In
fact they would not yield until
every surviving member of the
band was placed hors du combat,
Fully a thousand persons wit.
messed the sunguinary struggle.
In brief, the first encampment OF
Company H was decided sue
cess and the citizens of SocorrC
will anticipate the next occasion
of the kind with genuine pleasure,

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
The Board Meets to Comply with
Certain Writs Of Mandamus.

The board of county commits
sioners met in special session at
the court house in this city July
81 for the purpose of complying
with two certain writs of manda-
mus, one issued out of the dis
trict court of Socorro county by
the Hon. Dan'l II. Mcmillan, the
other issued out of the district
court of Santa Fe county by the
Hon. J. h. McFie. There were
present Commissioners John
Greenwald, chairman, and Matias
Contreras and II. G.. Baca, clerk
and interpreter.
Two writs of mandamus were
presented and read. One of the
writs was issued out of the dis
trict court of Socorro county, the
other out of the district court of
Santa Fe county, and command
ed the board either to make a
special levy on the taxable prop
erty of the county or to issue
bonds to pay judgments obtained
by certain parties as follows:
c. f. Blackingtou, 81, ,9O1.0O;
New Mexico Printing Co.,
S417.00; eduardo V. Baca,
81, ,6S6.73. The facts were enter
ed upon the minutes of the meet
ing that these indebtednesses
were created by the predecessors
of the present board and that the
judgments were rendered thereon
prior to the beginning of the
term of Office of the present
board.
The board considered that it
would be unjust to burden the
taxpayers of the county with an
additional levy to pay these
judgments in one year and there
fore ordered the issue of bonds.
These are to be 20-30 year bonds
bearing 5 per cent interest paya-
BILE semi-annually. The amount
of the bonds will be $4,000, if
that amount is necessary to cover
the judgments, interest and costs,
and they will be dated Septem-
Der l, 1902. 1t was also ordered
that direct annual tax be levied
on all the taxable property of the
county for the payment of the
principal and interest on these
bonds.
The board adjourned to meet
in regular session, October, 1902.

LIVELY COUNCIL MEETING.
Large Attendance Of Citizens to Listen 10
Proposals for Purchase Of Clty Lands.


There was a large attendance
of citizens at a special meeting
of the council last night. Great
interest has been aroused in the
proposed disposal of considera-
BILE areas of the city's lands.
Abran Abeyta and w. H. Byerts
are seeking to purchase lands be-
tween the smelter. and the noun
tain and considerable earnestness
was displayed by the two gem
tlemen in arguing the merits of
their respective bids. BY formal
resolution of the city council the
whole matter of the disposal of
the city's lands was delegated to
Mayor Cooney.
Messrs. Byerts and Abeyta
were interviewed this morning
by representative of THE CHEF
TAIN to the following effects, viz;
Mr.. Abeyta-My proposition to
the city council is to take 1000
acres or more of the city's lands
at its appraised valuation and
pay for it in cash, legal city scrip
and bonds. Mr.. Byerts-I have
Just drawn an offer in writing to
Mayor Cooney of 50. so an acre for
100 acres of the city's lands next
the mountain west of the smelter.
If, however, the city wishes TO
dispose of ten acres surrounding
the smelter spring will give
81 900 for that alone.
These are the statements made
by the prospective buyers them
selves and the public is at liberty
to Judge of the merits of the two
propositions.
