Wise in it's Generation.

Roswell would rather have 10000
acres of land in its immediate vicin-
ity under cultivation than a dozen
new railroads. Roswell is wise in it's
generation for the railways will come
of themselves if there is something
worth coming for. 1t is a lesson that
Santa Fe should learn. 1t is better
to add to the area under intelligent
cultivation in this immediate vicin-
ity than to be chasing after indus
trial phantoms by the careful hus-
banding of water and intensive cul-
tivation of the land under ditch
alog the Santa Fe and Tesuque rivers
the prosperity of this city could be
greatly increased---New Mexican.

Scout, Dec. 15.-More rioting has
taken place at Mokphe, and yester-
day japanese mob wounded seven
teen Coreans. High Corean officials
are hurrying to Mokphe to .quell the
diorders So far Russia has not in
terfered.
United States Minister Allen has
demanded a definite answer from the
Corean government in regard to the
opening of the port of Wiju. Despite
American, British and Japanese pres
sure, Russian influence over the Co.
rean government is apparently un-
shaken and it is expected that Corea
will procrastinate in dealing with
dhe matter and possibly may refuse
eventually to act at all. A feeling
of interest is growing among the
Corean people who fear that wheth-
er 1t is to be peace or war between
Russia and japan, extinction of the
empire is imminent. 1t is believed
that an outbreak of hostilities or
the announcement of a protectorate
of any kind will precipitate trouble.
All foreigners in Scout suspect dis
order and the American residents de-
sire to see a war ship. The Corean
army numbering 5000 men, is con-
Sidered one of the most dangerous
factors of the situation. as an insub-
ordinate element beyond control. In
case of trouble it is feared the sol
tdiers will be the first to lead the ri
oting and begin looting.
Part of the Russian squadron has
already departed for Port Arthur
and the remainder of the fleet will
follow, leaving no war ships of that
nation in Corean waters.

A MAN IN
 THE ICE PACK
Seen Off Penny River, Apparently Trying to Reach ShOre-WaS
 He From the Zenith?

A map, evidently white, was seen in boat yesterday morning about three miles out at sea, opposite Jessie creek, three miles this side of Penny river. A number of people watched hini for an hour or more. That the man was not q native is believed by the men who saw him. This information was brought to Nome yesterday by N. P. Holmes, who watched the motions of the man in the boat. Sometimes, he says, "the man was sitting down: at other times he stood up, and was, apparently try ing to make his way to the shore. !" Mr. Holmes, who was coming down from Quartz creek, directed the atten- tion of number of other men to the man out in the ice-pack. All agree that a native would not be found there at this season of the year, and it may be possible that the man was messen- ger from the schooner Zenith, which many think may have been caught in the ice-pack.

The decree of the court also gives Nilima ct. al. an undi- vided one-half interest in the Glacier creek property of the Hot Air Co.,, the Fredericks bench claim, and also one- half interest in any and all dumps upon properties as described in evidence ad- duced at the trial of the case.
 The case was tried last month with out jury, and was hotly contested. Nilima, the plaintiff, alleged that he was a partner of Johan r. JOhansen, who, it is alleged, was frozen to death in March, 1901, near Good Hope bay. Johansen was a mail carrier between Teller and Kotzebue sound. In 1901 Johansen sold his mining interests on Glacier creek to the Hot Air Mining Co.,. and some time after Johansen's s death Nilima began suit to recover an interest in all the mining property that Johansen had acquired. An appeal will be taken to the circuit court of ap- peals.
