A LIVING MAP.
New Mexico Welcomed President
Roosevelt With II.


From the New York Tribune.
One of the unique things presented
during his western trip occurred in the
exercises at Albuquerque, n. NJ.
About so feet in front of the speakers
stand was erected an immense plat.
form, containing a prodigious map of
the United States, inclined upward, so
as to be in full view OF the president
and his party. II was inclosed with
canopy of bunting, flags. etc. and had
a little girl, dressed and labelled to
represent each state, standing upon
the respective state maps. Just out
side a low railing in front stood little
girl with extended hands appealing for
admission to Uncle Sam, who stood on
the inside. opening the gate with one
hand and handing the little maiden a
star with the other. The tableau was
known as the diving map" Every
member OF the presidents party was
interested in the sentiment exempli-
fled by 1t.

to the Las Vegas asylum last week,
where he will receive proper care and
attention. His condition is regarded
az serious. however, and IT is very un'
likely that he will ever regain his

eastern crossing, while at the canal
headgatcs last night, was drowned.
The part OF the city in which Mr.. No
Ian resided would be overhowed in
case of a serious break In the levee and
naturally he was interested In knowing
just what the conditions were and
last night drove out to the headgates
along the levee bank.
While he was attempting to turn
around his horse backed the blackboard
in which he was riding into the water
The force OF the water was sufficient
to draw the horse into the stream and
before either could be rescued. both
were drowned.
Mr.. Nolan had been warned by the
guards and those working on the
levee bank that his horse was backing
the buggy too close to the river bark,
but he probably did not hear the
warning ana by the time that he found
out what danger he was In, It was toe
late to save himself.
An attempt was made last night to
recover the body OF the dead man but
to no avail. The blackboard, however
was located and afterwards pulled out
OF the water.
At the point where Mr.. Nolan wal
drowned the river carries very swift
current and the bank breaks away yer,

blackboard was placed on the edge OF

ASYLUM INVESTIGATION.
An El Paso Witness Tells Of the Pro-
cssdings at Las Vegas.
SUBSIDIZED PAPER MlSQUOTEO FACTS.


From the I'll Paso News.
Robert l.. rorbandt. who recently
returned from Las Vegas, where he
gave testimony in the insane asylum
investigation, makes the following
statement regarding the inquiry at
that place;
He said: 81 found the investigation
commission TO be men OF integrity
who will be governed by the testi.
mony given in the hearing. instead OF
being governed In their decision by a
partisan press. The gentlemen OF the
hoard were all men of standing and
they paid particular attention to all
that was said by the witnesses.
The Las Vegas Optic took an un
due interest IN the case, and Its re.
ports from first to last were In favor
of the administration OF the asylum.
"In my testimony the inquiry board
asked me whom. in my opinion, |
thought responsible for this state OF
affairs. which | he'd been speaking
about. told them that ! considered
the steward, George w. Ward. respon-
sible. My testimony was substantial
ly the same as that given in the Even
ing News. was not questioned with
regard TO the matter of the skeleton
OF Mary Leonard, as explained to the
board OF inquiry that was not respon'
sible for that.
The Optic shows It's bias in its ed
itorials on the matter. In It's news
columns, II gave the testimony OF Ad'
olfo Gonzales. a former night watch
attendant. Gonzales Is a bartender in
Las Vegas. He was in the institution
six months. His testimony admitted
that the Ferris wheel, the bucking
and gagging, and the tieing OF patients
In their beds was carried on. and that
he had participated in 1t. The Optic
thinks that because in Gonzales test
mony he says that such treatments
are proper. they are proper and right
Gonzales is held up as a criterion, and
his statement that he believed the gag
was a necessity is taken AZ a justifica
ton of the asylum management In
permitting such a thing.
Gonzales was not the only one who
testified to these practices Every
witness, almost, who made sworn
statement. said that he had seen the
various treatments administered time
and again. and that ne had in some
instances assisted in carrying out the
punishment.
Now the partisan papers OF Las We
gas are striving TO influence the opin
ions Of the investigating board by theil
editorial comments. The Optic ha.
twisted the testimony in an effort e
show that the asylum was well con
quoted, but, as will be seen by the ties
timony OF Gonzales, they have some
times admitted the truth OF thu
charges.
"They try TO justify the administra
ton of hyperdermic injections by thu
insane patient. DR.. Molau. to other pa
tients. Gonzales himself admitted tina
he saw DR.. Molau kick patient ans
twice he had seen the insane man Civ
injections to other patients.
II think that the board Of inquir.
will take cognizance OF these thing
and l believe that they will hnd

by the testimony. have no complain

Washington, June 23.--The state de-
partment has received by telegram
from a number of Americans residing
IN Chihuahua. Mexico, just how many
is not known, copy of a resolution
adopted by them and directed to the
secretary OF state, asking the removal
of w. w. Mills. United States consul
at that point.
The resolutions were not at all spe-
cific in their allegations, and did not
afford the state department any proper
grounds for action. The burden of the
complaint seems to be that the consul
who is brother OF Gen. Arson Mills,
retired. after six years residence in
Chihuahua had become obnoxious to
the American colony, or at least to a
considerable portion thereof.
Following the usual custom the de-
partment sent a copy OF the resolution
to the consul with an invitation TO ex.
plain, of watch he availed, and as
things now stand the department Is
pretty well satisfied that the com
plants are not well founded. Perhaps
further details OF the mass meeting
will come by mail. In which event the
case may be reopened.
