w. II. Wolff, of Gallup, was in the
city, arriving last Saturday night from
Dalhart. Texas, where he secured the
franchise to Put in an electric light
plant there. Mr.. Wolff returned to
Gallup ON the limited train today.
The Dalhart Texan, in speaking of
Mr.. Wolff to that town, says:
w. H. Wolff, of Gallup, N. NJ, pro-
poses. if he car secure a franchise for
the purpose, to put in a first class and
up to date electric light plant in our
city.
Mr.. Wolff came in Monday and
called Upon the business men and citi.
no bonus; no stock subscriptions or
anything of the kind. He has had ex'
perience in electric lighting. having
owned and operated a successful plant
at Gallup since December, 1899, when
that plant began operation.
. Mr.. Wolff is very much impressed
with our city and Is willing to place
his money here If he can get the fran
chise. He Is willing to begin install
ing the plant by the 18th of April and
continue it to completion as fast as he
can get his supplies. He talks like he
means business. We have had severa
propositions from parties who acted
as IL they wanted a franchise to spec

Wolff makes. Every citizen should
give every that the
case will admit of.

Tents for Health Seekers.

At a meeting of substantial business
and professional men held in Silver

was erected for the purpose of erect
ing cottages and tents for health seek

known as the Pines Cottages, incorpor.
ated under the laws of Arizona with a
capital stock of s150,000. A large mum.
Der of three and four room cottages
and one and two room tents will be

thoughts connected with his life. Doubt
less he has his quiet joke, and a conf
lent sense of superiority, but he is not
curious. OF the outer world he knows
little. He is mildly, exclusively taken
IN with his own affairs. These rev
cries we're broken by the rumble of a
drum in n distance. AS all the activity
had ceased in the governors palace. a
retreat was made in the direction from
which the drum beats were sounding.
Indians could he seen going and com
ing in all directions. On entering the
plaza. which spreads out before the
historic old church of Isleta, a large
circle of Indians were giving their
Characteristic, mystic chant and step
ping in a circle to the beat of q large
drum, which was being played by a
lone Indian in the center. Many of the
old men were clad in clean, white cot
ton. the shirts ~profusely decorated
with beautiful white lace. The squaws,
of whom there were many in the dance,
were rendered most conspicuous by
their shawls of a gaudy hue, with
heavy white leggings and ~moccasins,
and a brilliant turban bound about
their heads. The dancers seemed to
be of two different clans, each dancing
at different times and for a certain in
terval. 1t is almost impossible and
was impossible in this case, to get an
Indian to explain the dance, on account
of its ~sacredness.
The scenery around the plaza, in
which the dance was going on, formed
a most striking back ground. The
tops of the one-story adobes were Gov
cred by old and young Indians wrapped
in bright colored and gaudy blankets,
watching the dance. Not alone were
they seated on top of their homes, but
huddled up around the doorways and
fronts as well. The dancing continued
until sunset, when all disappeared
from view almost as quickly as they
appeared.
Isleta is Tigua. Its reservation con
tains a little more han 10000 acres,
and agriculture and fruit raising are
very proftably followed by this COM
munity. which in a single year manu-
features a thousand barrels of wine
and sells thousands of dollars of fruits.
They make pottery, belts and mecca
sins. but mostly for their own use.
Their blankets and clothes are bought,
experience has taught these thrifty
Tiguas that their own time can be
more p%roftably employed in filling the
soil. j. p. Lente is the only Indian
merchant in the Isleta pueblo, and
does a larger business than any Indian
in the territory. The Pueblo Indians
are generally well-to-do, and many are
possessed of considerable wealth,
Sheep ranches are greatly in evidence,
The costumes of the m are often
quite costly. A day spent at the pueblo,
where so many interesting sights are
to be witnessed and SO many valuable
points of information picked up about
the aborigine, is never regretted.

THE GUARDS.

merry store conducted by Miss Fleming,
as temporary quarters.
However, the new quarters being too
small for drill purposes will be used
only as an armory. The boys will
have the benefit of the open air drill,
which will add a spice of reality to the
work. and develop their physical quail.
ties, until a larger and better perma-
nent quarters can be secured. The cap
tain and his fine company are DESTROYS
of equipping the permanent quarters
with a gymnasium, bath, reading room
and other essential departments to a
spirited organization.
The boys have placed renewed vigor
into the company since Captain O'Don-
nell has taken the c%aptianship and the
future prospects of the organization
are bright and encouraging.

Believed to be Failure is

TO WASH OUT THE CHANNEL
BY Curling the Mississippi River
Proves the Opposite.
VARIOUS METHODS ARE SUGGESTED
To Solve the New Problem is Con.
fronting the Engineers.
Special to the Daily Progress

jackson. March 90.-The breaks in
the levees along the Mississippi has
again given rise to a discussion
whether or, not the levee system is q
success, and in many quarters the
opinion is being yentured that the at
tempt to confine the big stream Is
practically a failure.
The levee sysetm was undertaken
under the belief that curbing the
waters would tend to wash out the
channel of the river, but 1T seems
that the opposite has been the case,
and. the bed. is now higher than ever
before. Various methods are being
suggested to solve the new problem
Athat confrouts the engineers, and the
subject will engage the serious atten-
:fion of the levee boards Of the state at
their future meetings. One method
of relief suggested is to cut channels
and outelts through which can be
sent the big volume of water when it
reaches the danger stage. Another
suggestion IS for the government to
spend several million dollars building
safety mounds where people and pro-
perty can be moved in case of danger.
The question of controlling the Mis-.
,ssissippi promises to become OF the
greatest engineering problems Of
Athe. age.
