SIERRA COUNTY CRIME.
AS the Result of a Drunk, a Native
Was Shot and Killed.

Sheriff Robins was notified last Fri
day morning that Albino Binueva had
been killed at the placers, seven miles
from here. From common rumor it
seems that Binueva, Miguel Castillo
and P~atricio Valencia had been drink
ing at Billiards. place Thursday even
ing and left for Andrews between 8
and 10 o'clock, all very intoxicated.
Shortly after they left five shots were
fired in quick succession. In the morn
ing Pedro Ribera discovered the dead
body of Binueva in the road some
three or foul hundred yards from Bull
lard's place. Upon notification, Sher-
if Robins and Constable Tafoya went
out and arrested Castillo and Valen-
cha. They had a preliminary hearing
before Judge Warren, who bound the
former over without bail and the lat
ter in the sum of 5000 to appear before
the next grand jury. Castillo has a
hard name among the Mexicans. while
Valencia has a good reputation, with
the exception of his getting intoxicat-
ed occasionally. Castillo is a young
man about 25 years old and his on
finement in Jail for the serious charge
against him does not seem to depress
his usual gay spirits. Just what the
coroner's jury found we have not been
able to learn. However, it is reported
that the deceased had three bullet
holes in him, two in the head and one
in the breast. 1t is also reported that
after the shooting Castillo proceeded
to rife the pockets Of the dead man,
but upon finding but one dollar put it
back. saying he would not take it. BIZ
nueva had a good reputation and had
a good ranch on the Rio Grande near
Worden's place. He came to town a
day or two before his death with a
load of grain. He leaves a wife and
several children. His remains were
taken to his home, for burial.-Hills-
boro Advocate.

FEARS INDIANS AND WILD BEASTS
A Man Wants to Know Whether 1t Is
Safe to Be Alone in New Mexico.

A Brooklyn, N. Y. man writes the
Bureau of immigration as follows: 81
was at Buffalo exposition and obtained
one of your pamphlets on the mines of
New Mexico. On that subject it is
quite attractive and complete, but it
leaves unanswered several questions |
desire to ask: Are there any roads in
New Mexico? What is the monthly
temperature? What is the rainfall? Is
the country infested with bad men?
are prices of goods high? Are there
many Indians and are they peaceable?
Would one man be safe in prospecting
alone? Are there some wild animals,
| mean dangerous ones? Do me the
favor to reply"
The writer received a prompt reply,
and by this time undoubtedly is in
formed that New Mexico is as safe a
country to be in as the state of New
York.

AN INSTANCE OF BRUTALITY.

Body Left to Coyotes.

Juan Gutierrez was killed by a
Southern Pacific train near Strauss,
Dona Ana county, and then robbed by
nine of his companions. The men
were walking along the railroad track
toward FL Paso. They heard a South
ern Pacific freight train in back of
them and stepped off the track to let
the train pass. One Of them concluded
to get TO the other side of the track be-
fore the train passed and succeeded,
but Gutierrez, who followed him was
struck and killed. The train made no
stop to pick up the mangled remains.
The crew of the freight train that fol
lowed, however, made a stop and ex-
amined the body, finding hat both legs
had been broken and the body terribly

A TOUGH GANG.
Hold UP the Ranch Of J. E. johnson
and Search the House.

Hold Up the Ranch of J. E.. johnson
and Search the House.
We are informed by Oscar Bell. who
is well acquainted with the fact that a
few days ago, four masked men visited
the ranch of James f. johnson, in this
county, and made inquiry for Mr.. John
son, Mr.. Howry and Eugene Logan. but
finding neither of these gentlemen at
home, rode way after searching the
house. 1t is said that johnson. Logan
and Howry have recently been very
persistent in their efforts to apprehend
and bring to justice some cattle rust
lers in their vicinity, who seem to fear
neither God nor man. and it is sup
posed to be some of these or some OF
their friends. who made this visit to
Mr.. Johnson's ranch. Mrs. Johnson
thinks she recognized at least n of
the parties.
We deplore such acts of lawlessness
and hope the time will soon arrive
when we shall hear of them no more,
If the maskers had found those whom
they were seeking, we wonder if they
wouldn't have wanted somebody to
help them undiscover them.-Clayton

"SLABSIDE
Letter From John Burroughs Com
menting Upon a House on the
South Side.

John Burroughs, the well known
poet and author, has a home built of
slabs of bark from forest trees and
which he has dubbed "Slabsides.' Hon.
E. F. Hobert's home in Santa Fe is
also built of slabs. Recently a picture
of Mr.. Hobert's home was sent to Mr..
Burroughs by a relative and in reply
Mr.. Burroughs wrote from West Park,
N. Y, as follows: Dear Sister: The
photo of your friends 'Slabsides' came
safely. l did not suppose there were
slabs enough in New Mexico to make a
bower. This SENS a very pretty one.
1t quite takes the shine off mine, but
mine boasts of a celery patch and a
fine spring, neither of which l fancy
are to be had in your country. Thank
you and your friends for the picture"

The Gift of Responsiveness.

The responsive woman. although not
necessarily "wearing her heart upon her
sleeve" cannot hide its beautiful, unset
ish qualities. It is at the core Of her
nature, a part Of her life, to force what
is best in her to the surface; and this
necessity of her being brings her respon-
siveness into play upon all occasions,
Her magnetism draws not only the cul-
tured men and women of the polite social
circle, but is felt along all the WAYS
where men and women work. strive. suf-
fer defeats. win victories and wait in de-
spair or in hope for the final outcome of
life.
There is a spurious sort Of responsive-
ness that is nothing more than a vulgar
curiosity in the affairs of others. This
develops meddlers and busybOdies. and
is associated with narrowness, egotism
and selishness, and in time is sure to
reveal itself in all the unloyeliness of it's
meaning.
The responsive woman can go down to
the very gate of death with the sufferer.
and can bubble with humor in company
with the mirthful. Her qualities not be-
ing held for occasions, the wires of her
sympathies are always in place to an
swer telegraphic messages from souls
that constantly and instinctively appeal
to them. It is delightful study to
watch responsive woman as she carries
her benefcent influence wherever she
goes. She travels a queens way-every-
one along her path springing toward the
privilege of receiving her smile.-Wom-
ans Home Companion.

TWO VEGETABLES NEW HERE.
One from China and One from Japan
by Way of France.

ny way OF r rance
"-Among the newer salad plants,' said
dealer in green vegetables, sis one
called Oriental romaine, which has been
introduced here about four years. It
came originally from China. This is q
winter salad, and is grown in the South,
being raised rs far north as North Caro-
lima.
"A head of Oriental romaine is about
as long as an ear OF corn, and, in it's
middle part, of about the same diameter;
but, instead of tapering down at it's lower
end, it is there somewhat dubious; so
that the whole head is somewhat vase
like in shape.
1T is made up of long, narrow leaves
folding closely together, solidly. from the
heart out, the outer leaves being of about
the size of green cOrnhusks.
1T is sold by the pound, at from Is
to ~ cents, according to the supply. \
single head weighs about a pound, more
OF less.
"Another vegetable new here, we have
had it about four years, one which is
more often eaten cooked. but which, I'M
cooked, is used as a garnish for salads,
and is eaten as such, is Japanese crosne,
an .artichoke-like vegetable coming orig
lnally from Japan, but now cultivated in
France, whence all our supplies of it are
imported.
Japanese crosnes are about two inches
III lensCn Dy half IN inch IN diameter at
the thickest part, midway Of their length;
taperins toward the ends; they have also
ring-like holdings. so that they look like
rather stubby little turned spindles.
''Besides their salad use, and their use
cooked they are also used to garnish or
decorate cooked meats. In Japan they
are eaten cooked, picked and as salad.
Japanese crosnes are imported in bas-
kets like small, heavily-made champagne
baskets. fifteen pounds to the basket.
They sell here at 40 cents pound, and
find favor."-New York Sun.
