EVANS REVERSED.
Spanish War Claimants Can Now
Recover.

Washington. April 1.-THE interior
department, on appeal from the judg-
ment of Pension Commissioner Evans,
in a thirty-five page printed opinion.
has reversed the latter's opinion, and
holds that a soldier can recover the SO
per month pension under the act Of
March 3, 1881, from date Of pension
claim for the period of proven second
grade disability, even though such pc
Rod be temporary
Heretofore this act providing second
grade pension of $50 per month was
held to apply only to permanent disa-
bility. Many thousand Spanish war
pension claimants can recover $50 per
month for their proven secOnd-grade
disability for the period thereof. even
though they may have been found on
Official medical examination to have re-
covered therefrOm.
The decision follows two years OF
hard-fought litigation, and will cost the
government several million dollars.

bia, S. c., in the year 1918. He studied
law at the University of South Carolina

legislature and made notable speeches
against the reopening Of the slave trade
His first marriage was to Miss Mar
garet Preston, daughter of Gen Francis
Preston. bis second wife was daugh-
ter of Senator George McDuf1e of South
Carolina.
Gen. Hampton enlisted at the begin

Run, in the Pennsylvania campaign and
many others, especially at Gettysburg
He became major general August 3,

Gen. Stewart of the British Army
Visits Denver.

Denver, April 11.-Major General Sir
accompanied by Lieutenant Colonel Hol-
land is in Denver to Investigate condi-
tons surrounding the purchase OF
horses and mules for South Africa. The
arrival of the general is the result of
the charges that the British government
has been swindled out of many hundred
thousand pounds sterling by agents IN
the purchase of horses for the army.
Gen. Stewart said there was no camp
of the British army at Chalmette, La.
whence Governor Heard of louisiana
says, the British are sending men and
horses and mules to South Africa in
violation of the neutrality laws.
The shipping of mules and horses IS
being done in a manner meeting al le-
gal requirements" said the general.
and ] do not think the United States
government will consider the receiving
and shipping point for horses and mules
for the British army, a few miles from
New Orleans, a military camp in any
sense

U. s. G. Welt Tries to Blow Up His
Neighbor With Internal Device.

Quincy. H., April 11.-Ulysses Simp-
son Grant Welt is under arrest charged
with sending an internal machine
through the mails to his neighbor, Chas.
Johnson. It is stated at police head
quarters that Welt confessed. giving as
his reason that he disliked johnson. The
machine consists of a round wooden
box and was nearly filled with giant
powder. Matches and emery paper were
so arranged that by twisting of the lid
the matches would ignite and set fire to
the powder, which was of sufficient
quantity to have wrecked the johnson
home.

CITY STREETS.

Philadelphia has a public spirited or
g%anization. the City Park association,
which has just published a fine vol
ume, with maps and illustrations, to
show how much more beautiful and
economically managed a city is if laid
out with curving and diagonal streets
than If planned on the usual gridiron
system. The position taken is thus
stated. Winding, curving streets are
far more picturesque than straight
one and are particularly delightful for
residences. Curving and delightful
streets give much greater opportunity
for diversity of architecture than
straight ones do" Main thoroughfares
only should be straight, according to
this carefully considered exposition of
the subject, Many of the cuts and fills
in the average city are worse than use
less.

THE SHELTER BLOWN IN.
After Months of Waiting Cerrillos will
Now Experience New Prosperity.

Word was received yesterday that
the smelter at Cerrillos would be
blown in that night. The smelter is one
of the most complete and modern in
the west. 1t is owned by the CONSOLE
dated Mining & Smelling company, in
back of which there is abundant Penn
s~ylvania capital. Several of the direc-
tors of the company have been at Ger
rillos the past few days and they un'
doubtedly brought the orders to blow
in the smelter. The company has an
ore buyer on the road and is operating
it's own coal mine on the Pecos Forest
Reserve. 1t will undoubtedly be kept
in operation for a long period.
When the present owners acquired
the smelter not so long ago. it had
never been blown in, although it had
been erected several years before. Ex'
tensive alterations and additions were
made the past few months to bring the
smelter up to date. A stack has been
added for the treatment of copper ores,

VALUE OF NEW MEXICO FARMS.

The census shows hat in 1900 the
farms of New Mexico and farm prop
erty and live stock were valued at
nearly $50 900 900. that the value OF
farm products was a little over $10.-
000 600 IN 1899 and that the gross farm
income for hat year was $4,000. 900.
The Denver Republican a y that the
reople of the east should see in this
enough to convince them hat New
Mexico is in a condition to sustain a
state government. This is the census
report of only one class of wealth. To
il should he added in order to ascer-
tain New MeXico's condition all the
wealth connected with other industries
besides farming and stock growing.
Mining is a leading industry in New
Mexico as it is in Colorado and other
Rocky Mountain states. There is also
some manufacturing. and merchants
have brought into the territory an
enormous quantity of property which
has become subject to taxation.
People who think that New Mexico
is a poor, helpless community are
| greatly mistaken. 1t is well able to
! maintain a state government and sup
| port q large population. What 1t needs
is the stimulus that would come with
the establishment of local self govern
| ment. Let it come in as a state II its
| population will Immediately begin TO
| increase, and each new ONE will add
to the value of taxable property and
the ability of the local government to
maintain itself.

LAND GRANTS.

The Denver News commends Dele
gate Rodey upon his opposition 10 con
gress confirming title to land grants in
this territory which have been rejected
by the court Of private land claims.
The land court has restored about T.
600, 600 acres claimed under grants to
the public domain. Many of these
grant claimants reside in the east, and
having purchased land TO which the
courts refused them a title, rush into
congress to have the grant confirmed.
If these parties purchased a fictitious
title we fail to see what claim. either
in law or equity. they have on con
gress. The court of private land claims
was created to adjust the titles to
these grants and it has done so in a
fair and impartial manner, and in
many cases after the most laborious
investigation. Disappointed litigants
who claimed thousands of acres with.
