THE ANCIENT
TAOS PUEBLO
The Indians There Making Advance
ment and Progress-Increasing in
Numbers-Fair Crops and
Contentment.

I. w. Dwire, who for several years
has been farmer in charge of the Tao;
Pueblo, and who is considered a very
good and efficient official, while in the
city during the fore part of the week
in conversation with New Mexican
reporter, said: "The Pueblos at Taos
are progressing, although slowly. Con
sidering that the Indians of that Pueb.
10 are among the most conservative
and slowest of any to yield to civiliza-
ton in New Mexico, it might be said
that they are doing very well.
"Their number has not decreased
but is slowly increasing; the birth
rate is greater than the death rate.
There are now AGA of them, men, wo-
men and children. Quite a number of
the boys and girls speak the English
language and several of them, especial
ly the boys, have taken to reading
English books and newspapers. The
Daily New Mexican, as soon as it
comes to my office, is very much in
demand A good many of the boys
have learned some useful handicraft
at the United States Indian Industrial
School, at Santa Fe, are working at
their trades and are making a good
living.
while there has been a scarcity of
water during the past season, never
theless crops have been fair, consider
ing the amount of work and tillage put
upon them. The Indians had about
800 acres Of land under cultivation dur

Origin Of Fire Mystery and Flames
Still Making Headway...Loss Will
be Heavy.

Peoria, ILL.,, Dec. 9.-The Schell Goa
mine at South Bartonville, one mile
south of this city, on the Peoria & Pc
kin Electric Railway, was discovered
o.. f.'e this morning, the blaze being in
the main entry, at the foot of the shaft
Over a hundred men were at work in
the mine at the time and for while
there was great excitement, as it was
thought they would perish in the
flames.
The men, however, were taken to
the second shaft, half mile distant,
and although several were overcome
by the smoke and gas fumes, all OF
them escaped in safety, their fellow
workers carrying those who were un-
conscious to the shaft entrance.
The origin of the fire is mystery
although it is supposed to have been
started from an overturned lamp of a
trapper-boy. Eight mules were over
come by the smoke and the coal is now
on fire. The flames communicated
themselves to the woodwork of the
shaft and worked both ways from the
starting place, going upward through
the shaft and towards the interior of
the mine.
It is expectd that the property loss
will be very heavy.

Attack Of Yesterday on Stocks On

Little Excitement on Floor Today...No
Forced liquidaton...Cood Rallies
Follow Weakness.

New York, Dec. 9.-The stock mar
ket opened this morning with but lit
tie excitement on the floor of the ex
change. The feeling was more cheer
full than at the close yesterday al
though the unsettled conditions indi
Gated in the early quotations tended tc
check anything like aggressive buying
for a rise.
Representatives of certain commits
sion houses were reported to be buy
ing moderately of stocks of the active
list. There were no indications OF
forced liquidation and the market de.
veloped marked strength and activity
before the end of the first half hour.
Technically, stock opened weak and
lower, the opening quotations showing
a decline of from a half to one point.
Soon after the market opened, prices
steadied somewhat and in some shares
there were good rallies.
Buying Orders Increase.
Well distributed buying orders in
the last two hours gave the market a
healthier tone and dissipated the few
erishness. The market continued
steady until the close and prices were
lifted steadily upward. The rise over
yesterdays close ran from one-half to
two points.

ing the past year and raised about g.
900 bushels of wheat and oats; about
$500 bushels of corn and quite large
amount of vegetables. The experiment
of growing potatoes has been made
and has proven successful. About so
bushels were grown during the past
year, but this will be greatly increased
next year. The Indians have learned
to eat potatoes and are becoming quite
fond of them. They have no sheep,
but own in severalty about 400 cattle
and 600 horses and ponies. They are
contented and peaceful, and look for
more Improvement on their part next
year. I also think that the area of
land to be cultivated will be somewhat
increased.
"The health of the Pueblos is good
and there have been no contagious dis
eases this year and there are none
now. The outlook for the Taos Pueblo
is very encouraging. AS you know the
Pueblo is one of the most ancient in
the southwest and the Indians are
rather tenacious in holding on to their
old customs and habits, but the spirit
of the age and the surrounding condi-
tions are too strong to be much longer

and That She is Not a Hypnotist
...ScandaIized Chicago.

New York, Dec. 9.-Mrs. Cassie L.
Chadwick, who was unable to secure a
bail bond for $4,000 yesterday, was
sent to the Tombs, where she spent
the night. She said today that she de-
sired to go direct to Cleveland to meet
the charges which have been filed
against her in that city and that she
would waive the preliminary examina-
tion set for the 18th instant in New
York. She seemed very much worn
today and depressed and did not seem
to care much about talking.
Was Madam DeVere.
San Francisco, Dec. 9.-Mrs. Alice
M. York, who claims to be a sister of
Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick, says that
the talk about that woman being a
hypnotist is all nonsense, although she
says that Mrs. Chadwick was peculiar
as girl and used to go into what were
apparently frances. She admits that
Mrs. Chadwick is the Madam DeVere,
who was convicted of forgery, served
part of her sentence and was later re-
leased on parole, and who became no
torious in Chicago for her prominence
in several scandals, which filled the
columns of the newspapers at the
time.
Mrs. York says that her sister seems
TO have mania for doing such things,
it is not necessary as she has
plenty of money.
