DISPUTE OVER A RANCH.
John j. Tohn and George H Conard Get to Shooting al
Each Other,

John j. Tobin shot and seriously
wounded George N. Conard, well
known cattleman at the Burns ranch
on the Santa Fe-Pacific. The ranch
was in possession of Conard, but dur
ing his absence Tobin took possession.
When Conard returned he commenced
putting some feed in the barn. Tobin
objected and called to his wife for his
gun. Conard started for his rifle,
which was in the wagon, and as he
did SO, Tobin ran back into the house.
Conard then started again to the barn
with box Of feed when Tobin ap-
peared and commenced shooting. The
first charge of buckshot passed over
Conards head, the wad striking him In
the face. The second charge struck
Conard in the right arm as he had It
raised up holding the box on his shoul-
der Had it not been for the box Co.
nard's head would have been torn off.
Tobin had emptied his shotgun and is
alleged to have called to his wife to
get Conard's rifle and kill him. She is
said to have handed the rifle to Tobin,
who fired at Conard as he was getting
out of range, hitting him the third
time in the left leg above the knee.
The ranch has been in dispute for
some time, but recently the court in a
trial rendered decision favorable to
Conrad.

-FOUR STATES AND TWO REPUBLICS.
An Interesting Point on the International Boundary Line
of New Mexico.

A few days ago the New Mexican
stated the fact that Arizona, New
Mexico, Colorado and Utah formed
junction of four corners, one monu-
ment being sufficient to mark the
boundary lines of four commonwealths.
1t was also stated that there was not
similar instance in America.
Since the publication of that item It
has been learned that which is not
generally known in regard to a similar
state of fact. On the international
boundary line, about 60 miles east Of
Tombstone, the state of Chihuahua
and Sonora form a junction with Ari-
zona and New Mexico, the four corr
ners coming so closely together that
one may stand in two republics at one
time and shake hands with those of
four different states, and If he wears q
No. shoe he can stand upon the terra
firma of two republics and four sover-
eign states, a fact that does not exist
in any other portion Of the globe.
A lonely international monument
marks the spot, and If there be one
desirous of expanding and covering
four states and two republics at one
pose let him flee to this particular mon
ument above referred to.

GOOD RESERVOIR SCHEME.
II Is to Reclaim 10000 Acres Of Government Land
In Soc0rro County.

e. w. Brown, prosperous Socorro
county stockman, is making a survey
for big storage reservoir 3S miles
from San Marcial near Dripping
Springs Socorro county. The propos-
ed dam is to carry an average depth of
rs feet of water and will cover $50 acres
Of ground. It is estimated that with it's
help 10000 acres can be put under cul-
tivation. The land to be reclaimed is
at present government land. The for
nation is limestone and 1t Is estimated
that 72 hours Of rain In a season will
fill the reservoir. An average of twelve
inches a year Is to be furnished each
of the 10000 acres to be reclaimed. The
site is known as the Hopewell tank. 1t
is so peculiarly formed that it will be
possible to construct part of the dam
now, use it with the water it stores and
add to its capacity whenever it is con-
venient. 1t will be built in sections in
other words. The site is eight miles
north of the high ridge at the north end
of the San Andreas mountains; and
the whole of the water falling into
catchment basin of seven miles east
and west by nine miles north and
south is drained into Grapevine basin
and would be available for the pro-
posed reservoir.

The BISBEE RAILROAD.
II VIII Be- Completed by February 10 Constructing
from Both Ends.

Paschal r. Smith of Deming, says
the Bisbee railway line will be COM
pleted by February 10 to Deming, as
construction Is in progress from both
ends. Trains will then run from Ben
son through Bisbee and Douglas to
Deming. 1t is announced that track
age over the Santa Fe from Deming
has been secured, and that the Bisbee
trains will come to this city until the
line from Deming can be built down
the other side Of the Rio Grande. Lit
tie Is being done on this route, owing
to injunctions in favor Of the Southern
Pacific. Mr.. Smith says the Bisbee will
not get tracks laid to Ell Paso for a
year, but will come to the city. The
grading from Lordsburg to Hachita is
nearly finished and the steel will be
laid before the end of March. This
will connect Clifton and Morencf with
the Bisbee and Ell Paso system.
The Bisbee people stoutly deny that
they ever intended to delay construc-
tion on the Ell Paso end, and assert that
the Southern Pacific gossip to that ef-
feet was unwarranted. But complica-
tions as to bridge and injunctions
make it necessary to deliver steel for
the road at Demlng and lay track
from that end.
