NEW mExico's METROPOLIS.

The locating of the big mill of the
American Lumber company in this city
has brought forth favorable comment
from the big daily newspapers of the
country. The Pueblo Chieftain, edi-
torlally, says:
The city of Albuquerque has prac-
ucally secured teh location for the
great saw mills which are shortly to
be established by the American Lum-
her company for working up the white
pine timber covering thousands of
acres west of that city. The company
has made a proposition. and the city
has accepted IL. A tract of 10 acres
In the suburbs Is to be secured and
connected with railroad track and
with teh city water mains. The prop.
erty Is to he exempted rom municipal
taxes for six years. The company is
TO build a double band first class saw
mill OF n capacity of 100000 to 200 600
| feet Of lumber per eleven-hour run,
/ other mills for working up lumber Will
| be added. Arrangements for delivery
OF logs from the company's forests In
! Valencia and Mckinley counties have
been made Work of erection of build
ings is to begin within four months.
'fhis acquisition will no doubt settle
all question of rivaliries between New
Mexico towns In favor of Albuquerque
az the future metropolis OF the terri
tory. Pueblo ought 10 at once nego
tlato reciprocity treaties with Albu
querque and establish lines of fast
freight and fast friendship. We car
exchange a lot of business II we man
age II right. We can buy Albuquer
que's lumber and sell our iron manu-
features. An immense business with
all the north half OF New Mexico coul,
be worked up with very little effort.

trary 10 precedent and entirely at vari-
ance with fair play, the delegates who
constituted the late republican county
convention were not allowed To have a

ARTS OF THE CRIMINAL.
Lenaon Doctors AAventure WITH
Tibet who Was MAJ Of In {
% Anite Resources,

Sir Robert Anderson, X. c. B., the
assistant commissioner of police of
London. has another article, on pro-
fessional criminals in the current
Nineteenth Century and After, says
a London exchange.
Some years ago." he says, ga doc
tor friend of mine, who has a large
practice in one of the suburbs, spoke
to me about mysterious patient of
his. Now and then he FASTENED to the
mans house in response to an urgent
message asking for his immediate at
tendance, but though he always found
him in bed, he never could discover
anything serious the matter with him.
n But strange incident had recent
~ occurred. When, in compliance
with summons more urgent even
than usual, my friend hurriedly en-
tered his patients room, the man
sprang up in the bed and covered him
with a revolver. As matter of fact,
it was this seemingly eccentric indi-
vidual who stole the famous Gains
borough picture which Mr.. Agnew re-
covered in such dramatic manner.
THE doctors visits were designed
to support an alibi in the event of his
being accused of completely with any
of the crimes he directed. If, for ex-
ample, police officer should swear
that the man was seen with fellow
criminal, say at 12 o'clock on certain
day, his doctor could testify that an
hour later on that very day he found
him still in bed.
\ "The man lived in luxury, though
he never did an honest days work in
his life. / know of crimes his earn
ings' from which, taken together,
amounted to very large sums; in one
case they were reckoned by tens of
thousands of pounds. At one time he
kept a steam yacht"
Sir Robert Anderson gives another
curious "Reminiscences.
"A noted criminal, Just out on Ii
cense, set himself to procure the re-
lease of his pal who had still some
years to serve, and whose help he
wanted in returning to business.
For few shillings week he rented
wayside cottage in a midland coun-
ty, christened it something or other
hall, and from this address wrote a
Dear Sir to the secretary of state.
"The letter was masterpiece in
every way. The writer posed as a
country gentleman who had long
known the convict's family and long
grieved over his fall. But though the
poor fellow had had much against
him in early life, he had now by the
death of a relative in Australia sue
ceeded to a substantial fortune, and
he felt certain that if he were re-
leased the authorities would have no
cause to regret their leniency. The
bait took, the plot succeeded, and the
convict was promptly released to
license"
