ssnt. Fe Mus. Pay.

In accordance with the decision
made by the board OF county COM
missioDers at its last meeting,
County Treasurer Beerbohm is
already taking steps to enforce
the payment oil the railroad taxes
due for the year 1901. Early this
week he notified the officials OF the
Santa Fe that the company stood
charged on the books OF this
county with Sos, 335. o. taxes, and
accumulated interest to the amount
OF IS, 200 40. making total OF
$40. $500 taxes due Otero county
for the year 1901. The treasurer
also notified the company that il
the taxes were not paid in full on
or before the 23d Of the present
month he would be compelled to
the coal shutes, a railroad train or
some other tangible personal
property.
The railroads will probably
pay, we don't think; but If they
decide not to, Treasurer Beerbohm
will probably have two railroads
on his hands before the end OF the
month, we don't think. There
will probably be United States
marshal in town sometime before
the 23d, who will serve notice on
the county treasurer that re-
straining order has been issued by
the federal court. The matter
will then come to an issue in the
courts and relieve the treasurer of
all responsibility-~hich is the
way he long has sought, and
m mourned because he found ii not.

a banquet at Dougheuy's hall
Thursday evening In honor of the
knights OF the Maccabees and
their friends The affair was Ger
taInly a great success and the
ladies' proved themselves excellent
entertainers.
The ladies gave an exhibition OF
their drill work that was very
well executed, it being the general
opinion OF those who are familiar
with the work that they will soon
be able TO drill with any OF the
crack teams of the state.
The hall was very tastefully dec
Grated with the colors OF the order.
and the banquet tables were re-
splendent with flowers, roses, car
nations, and smilsx, dairty wax
candles making the good things to
eat look very tempting and inviting,

After the theatre, Wonderly's
orchestra rendered some very fine

EARLY DAYS
IN NEVADA
An Old Settler Tells How a
Prisoner, Sentenced to Be
Hanged, Was Guarded.

Hanged, Was Guarded.

d. said the old prospector. land
where was staying then they had just
organized a county. Naturally. they
had to nave a jail, SO they created the
sheriff's cabin into a jail. by having a
lock put on the door. For a long time
there were no prisoners, but at length
a man by the name of Sullivan killed
another man in the town. Sullivan
was arrested and ordered committed
for trial. He was an acquaintance of
the sheriff and the men lived there in
the sherlff's cabin in peace and amity.
They slept in the same bunk and the
key to the door hung on a nail on the
inside. They loafed around town to-
gether all day and night and the one
that went home first would take the
key. If the sheriff was In a card game
and he generally was-they would
give the key to the prisoner and tell
him to 60 home and lock himself in.
The prisoner made no attempt to es-
cape, although it will be seen that he
had every opportunity. At length his
trial came on and he was sentenced
to be hanged. The sentence made no
change in the habits oil the sheriff and
prisoner. The latter continued to be
his own Tailor twoSthirds of the time
and enjoyed life TO the utmost while
waiting his execution a few weeks dis
tant, The county attorney finally
caused trouble, however. He was
young and ambitious and complained
to the district judge. The latter call
ed the sheriff up and told him to take
better care Of the prisoner. The sher-
iff returned to the %"jail,' where he
found the prisoner calmly smoking be-
fore the fire. Throwing his revolver

Mrs Mackin says that after tho mass
she left the child before the shrine and
went to the end OF the church to speak
to one Of the sisters. As soon as she had
gone the child took of the brace, the mother
says, and for the first time i'll five years

FEWER MEN FOR THE MINISTRY.
Figures That Show the Falling or I'm the
Presbyterian Denomination.

The Rev. DIR. W. II. Roberts, stated clerk
of the General Assembly, has issued the
statistics Of the Presbyterian Church North
for 1903. A striking thing is the falling
on in the number of ordinations. In 1898
there were 200, while there were but 1884
last year, 81 fewer than in 1909. The num-
ber OF ministers increased slightly, however.
being now 7,704
Candidates for the ministry decline
steadily, and Presbyterian newspapers
and newspapers of other denominations
are trying to account for it. In 1898
the number of candidates in the Pres
byterian Church was llel, in 1900 the
number was 973, and last year $40
The number reported this year. 1903, Is
779 There is also a decrease in evangelists
to 1l9, the fewest for many years, and the
number licensed last year to preach was
but one-half the number in 1893,
The number Of baptisms this last year
was 40 800. about the number for several
years. The total membership shows steady
growth, In 1893 il was 97S, ,s77 and at pres
cnt 1t is l,087477, an average OF $4,000

HOSPITAL PATIENT ON A ROOF
SCARES EARLY MORNING PEDES-
TRANS IN SECOND AVENUE.

Delirl0us Woman. Clad Only I'm Night gown.
Gets out Through the Scuttle OF ~.
Mark's--In Danger OF Falling to the
street Untll Nurses Grabbed Her.
Tho escape and recapture OF delirious
patient OF st. Marks Hospital, at i72 Second
avenue. on the roof of a nearby house,
furnished lot Of excitement to folks in the
neighborhood who happened to be awake
about l o'clock yesterday morning. The
patient was woman and, from the glimpse
that was caught of her by the people in
the neighborhood, she appeared to be
quite young. How she escaped from the
hospital could not be learned yesterday
because the hospital folks didn't care to talk
on the subject.
Some people who were passing on Second
avenue heard groans and cries coming from
overhead and, at first, didn't know what to
make OF them. The cries seemed to come
from the roof Of the house on the southwest
corner Of Twelfth street and Second avenue,
which is five doors from the hospital
building, the latter being in the centre Of
the block
The people in the street we're specializing
as to what could be the matter when the
form OF woman, clad only in her night
dress. was made out. She was walking
unsteadily on the roof and getting nearer
and nearer to the edge. Before the folks
in the street had decided what to do the
woman disappeared About minute later
she was seen lying down and leaning over
the edge of a ROOF in Twelfth street.
Nearly everybody thought the woman
.l..s,. la ne
people shouted to her. The woman did
not pay any attention to their shouts and
kept looking over the edge, moaning, all
the while. BY this time quite crowd had
gathered in the street
Some one finally woke up the Brandt
family in the house and asked IL the woman
belonged there. They said she didn't and
suggested that the hospital be notified.
When the hospital folks heard of what
was going on il was found that woman,
who, 1t was said, had q room on the third
floor, was missing,
Three nurses got out through the sky
light and onto the roofs. Then they stole
over tho edge Of the roof, for fear
that, if she saw them. she might
jump. The situation was one that
made the folks in the street hold their
breath. They We're good deal relieved
when they saw the three nurses grab the
woman. She did not make any resistance
and was led back over the roofs, lifted to
the hospital roof and then taken down
through the skylight.
In getting to where she was found the
woman, after crawling out of the sltylght,
must have jumped six feet from the hos
pital roof to the one adjoining. Nobody
learned her name. woman, who may
have been the same one, is said TO have
made little disturbance on a balcony of
the hospital yesterday afternoon. She was
led in by nurse.
The nurse in charge at the hospital yes
terday said that the woman who had been
on the roof had been taken away later by
her friends

Since his transfer from Manhattan. a

borough He looked around particularly
in the section which. according to numerous
complaints forwarded to the Smith street
headquarters, was infested with disrepu-
table women He has thus described the
result Of his Investigations.
Brooklyn presents. to my mind, police
problems that are really new to me II
differs almost in every respect from Man
hattan.
There are many respectable women in
Brooklyn who go abroad at night and are
not molested. The night walkers are very
circlmspect in their behavior and there
is little Of open immodesty TO bc seer in
the steels. even at night
Brooklyn is essentially a moral part Of
the great city. have found that the
popular impression Of the people in Man

of homes and prominently of respect
able people is pretty nearly right. Ii peo-
pie in Brooklyn want to be vicious they
are pretty apt TO go over to Manhattan
