A posse of more than a dozen
ranchmen residing in the western
part OF Otero county are in hot
pursuit OF quartet of sheep
thieves who attempted to murder
the Mexican herder in charge Of
the sheep on the James Brown
ranch, fifteen miles northwest of
Fowler.
At an early hour last Tuesday
morning, while the herder was
asleep in his shack, the four men
placed heavy charge of dynamite
under the shack and blew it up.
The herder's escape from instant
death is considered miraculous.
He was blown high into the air,
but was only partially stunned
and escaped with only few
bruises. The dynAniters then
drove away I,4oo out Of flock OF
4, 500 sheep When about five
miles from the place they ahan-
doned the sheep and fled on their
horses toward the north.
The explosion aroused Mr..
Brown, whose residence was about
a mile from the shack. After at
tending to the sheep herder, he
mounted his fastest horse end gave
the alarm throughout the neigh
hood He was soon joined by a
number Of ranchmen, all heavily
armed Marshal Charles Baldwin,
Of Rocky Ford, was notified and
he aud several deputies are nov
in pursuit Both sides are heavily
armed and as the rauchmen are de-
tesmined to run down the guilty
parties, battle IS expected

The government photographer
in charge of the irrigation surveys,
r. n. Newell, stated that the work
which the government was en-
barking upon under the new irri-
CATION law, was one of great i'm
portance, and that it would be the
policy of the government to sur.
vey and investigate very carefully
states and territories before pro-
ceeding to the construction of any
storage reservoirs. The work frs,
constructed must serve as the bes,
possible object lesson Of national
irrigation.

The Horseback Riders.

That horseback riding has not gone
out of fashion would be realized by
anybody who should stand on any
pleasant Sunday on that noble driV-
ing thoroughfare, Seventh avenue,
above the Park.
There is rarely moment here at
such time when the figures of horse
men may not be seen in some d.
rection rising above the broad and
constantly moving stream of vehicles,
horsedrawn and automobile.
Morning is the time when the
horseback riders are out in greatest
force. In ten minutes there were
counted here on Sunday morning
last forty three equestrians, some
riding alone, and others in parties up
10 uV0 III uunU0I.
Most of the riders were men, but
there were some women. y The men
we're all ages, the greater number
young men.
The horsemen and women lend q
picturesque feature to the enlivening
spectacle of the Seventh avenue drive,
and just a glance at them as seen
on Sundoy mornings especially is
enough to show that horseback rid
ing has by no means gone out of
fashion in this community.

ENcAMPMENTs.

No man of military knowledge and
experience will deny the efficacy of
encampments for training and dis
cipl1ning the volunteer soldier-"and
there is NO question Of more vital i'm
portant TO The service than that. ," In
each of my past three reports I
strenuously advocated encaupments
and have continually sought in va
rious ways to interest and impress
members of the. general assembly of
the importance of appropriating q
small sum annually for that impor
tant work, but in every instance I
have been thwarted, and that grest
obstacle unremoved has been one of
Che greatest troubles / have had to
contend with in the four years strug
gle I have made to perfect volun-
tesr system Of which the state might
be proud. -,
I have the honor however, Ito re-
port that there is now pending in the
United States senate (which passed
:sthe lower house at the last session of
ccngress), a bill entitled "a bill to
promote the effeieHcy Of ths ths militia
and for other purposes" that pro
vides for the payment of the expenses
Of the State encampments of the
militia by the national government.
IL the bill becomes law land there
is hardly Q doubt, as it has the en-
dorsement Of the president and war
Department. then the greatest i'm
provement TO the efficient develop
ment of the volunteer service will
have been removed. -;

3 manner disnlautled; the disorgani-
zstion following the close of the
Spanish American war had caused
antipathy and waning of enthusiasm
for the State volunteer service that
resulted in the depletion and dis
bsndment of organizations all over
the State, and everything connected
with the State military as regarded
discipline, order and efficiency, was
in confused and chaotic condition.
The decline of spirit and interest in
the military, so unlike South Caro-
lima in the past, was a matter of COM
ment and criticism everywhere, and
the reasons given were legion; but
the one overtopping reason that grad
ually from year to year provoked the
decline of sentiment and enthusiasm
was the lack of interest and support
granted her volunteers by the State
through her lawmsking body. My
work, therefore, for four years has
been a matter Of making the best OF
it and gradually working by dint OF
struggle and stickativeness the pres
emit organization of volunteer troops
IS my report indicates.
I may say that the State, SO far as
her military is concerned, is in full
view of the promised land, and that
with the national resources in hand,
change Of arms, the newly adopted
uniform, the prospect of State en-
coursgement supported by the ma
tional government, and q liberal ap
preparation by the State, my success
sor, with his capacity and enthusi-
asm, will as I prophesy make the
volunteer soldiery of South Carolina
during his first term compare with
any State in the union. It has
reached a point where there is now
no trouble to 60 forward.

CONDITION OF THE
STATE'S MILITIA.

engendered thereby is unavoidable.
Many of the written rolls are fading
as time advances, and IN few years
will have to be retrsced to keep them
legible>. 1t appears futile to expect
many more additions to the present
enrolment; but if the present scheme
inaugureted by the Legislature should
be successful in discovering some
names not enrolled, that need not
delay the publication of the rolls as
they now stand, because the names
discovered thereafter could be very
easily added in supplemental. form
at q mere nominal cost. think,
therefore, that careful reflection upon
the subject indicates most clearly the
wisdom and economy Of the general
assembly making immediate proVis-
ion for the publication of the rolls as
we now have them, in cheap, sub
stantial book form; and by their pub
lication we not only preserve most
brilliant link in the history of the
State, but fulfill at the same time a
sacred duty that the State owes to
the invincible heroes that composed
the grand army contributed by South
Carolina Co the Confederate cause.
NAVAL MILITIA
This most important branch of our
volunteer service deserves the high
accommodation; from year to year
the improvement has been steady
AID highly gratifying. Three di=
visions, numbering in the aggregate
frank and fle) 225 men, is the
strength of this arm of the service.
Each division IS splendidly equipped
in the most modern style, and this
year will receive new uniforms com
plete, from appropriation made by
Che last general assembly for that
specific purpose. During my admin
istration each division Of the naval
service has been furnished with cut
tiers or patrol boats, thoroughly fur,
nished and equipped for any emer:
gency, foreign or domestic. Each
division is also armed with Lee mag
azine rifles, cutlasses, and one one
pound rapid FIRE gun each.
