of misplaced affection in his complaint for
divorce from Mabel A. Thompson, filed

demonstrated that she did not love him,
and deserted him while he was sick. and
left him dependent on the friendship OF his
acquaintance for comfort. Thompson
asks an absolute divorce, stating that a
reconciliation Is impossible, as his wife has
said she no longer loves him.

There is too much patness, the ex-

But as a whole the support was ex-

was most effective. The crowded
house was pleased and entertained.
Especial mention should be made Of
the fine work Of the orchestra. This
feature was commended by every
member Of the company. Kasper's
cornet solo. The Holy City" with
orchestral accompaniment, was par
ticularly fine. Added interest arises
from the fact that this was the chris

Another noteworthy feature was the

W. 4. SPARKS ENTHUSIASTIC
OVER COAL DEPOSITS IN
THE UPPER BASIN.

w. NJ. Sparks, who Is ranching and
mining on the upper Pecos, came
across the range to visit Las Vegas
and meet his associate In the mines,
w. B. Twitchell. who Is expected To
arrive within day or two.
Mr.. Sparks says that their group
in the Hamilton district is the only
real thing" in mines in New Mexi.
co. There Is now hundred tons Of
rich ore ready for shipment.
Nothing is being done at present IN
the Hamilton mine on account Of the
difficulties In which its owners became
entangled during the recent furry in
Wall street. But it is thought this
condition of things will not continue
as there is too much wealth in sight
to lie long untouched.
Mr.. Sparks speal: enthusiastically
of the coal deposit J. The upper

is an untold quantity OF this most
useful mineral ,....m the boundaries
of San Miguel county awaiting de-
velopment.
As to the projected Pecos power

water Is there and the fall is there,

In speaking Of the scenic road Mr..
Sparks regretted that the work ex-
pended on the Las Vegas end had not
been applied In attempting to provide
. good passable wagon road to the
Pecos river by way Of Harvey's and
Elk mountain over which the business
of the settlements on that stream
would have now been coming 10 Las
Vegas. At the Santa Fe end the road
has crossed the divide and now, he
understands, Is to be diverted from
the direct and easy route down Indian
creek In order to reach some coal
prospects on Dalton creek by the
most difficult way to be found, thus de-
laying the much desired access TO The
Pecos settlements.
