| yesterday. Mrs Cannon arose at an
early hour Tuesday, as was her wont
| but shortly after rising, fell in heap

1t doesn't seem possible that any one
in this city could be mean enough to put
out poison for pet animals, but such has
been done within the past few days and
several of the pet dogs have been on the

capped. This is low and the perpetrators
will also find it Improbable in the end.

The Baker Mfg Co report the year
1902 as being good year for business,
Notwithstanding the fact that they lost
several thousand dollars in trade because
they were unable to get prompt delivery
of steel. They manufactured 1850 wind
| mills, 4, 443 steel towers and over 1000
iron pumps and cylinders, also large
number of tanks, feed grinders. wood
saws, etc. The largest number of men
employed was 130 and the average about
80. The amount paid each week for
labor was nearly 81, 900, exclusive of the
Office help, and the average weekly sales

tiles for manufacturing and a more fav-
orable outlook for procuring steel and
other materials, the company has fair
prospect for larger business for the
present year.

Brigadier General w. II. Whiteman,
adjutant general OF the New Mexico
National Guard, has been in Denver
the past ten days and while there
visited the headquarters of the depart

mn says he expects to be able to send
from 200 to $50 Of the National
Guardsmen from New Mexico to the
army maneuvers which will be held
at Fort d. A. Russell, Wyoming, next
month. There will be representatives
from every company in the territory,
present it Is thought, but o m Of the
companies will be able to send their
full membership owing to the fact
that a great many of the guardsmen
have positions that 1t will be impossi-
Bile to leave for the necessary length Of
time. The different companies are re-
ceivlng tents. new arms and other
equipments and those that are not do
