CRUDE OIL WILL KILL TICKS.
Cattle Thus Treated May Be Shipped From
Texas During Any Season OF
the Year,

DR.. T. A. Bray of Ell Paso, who is in
charge of the Rio Grande border dis
trict for the United States bureau of
animal industry, on Saturday received
advice from the agricultural depart
ment to allow cattle from below the
quarantine line to be moved north at
any time during the year, providing
they are dipped in crude oil.
It has been demonstrated that Port
Arthur, Texas, crude oil will kill the
ticks and thus avoid the cause of
Texas fever and at the same time not
injure the cattle. Orders were there
fore issued that cattle so dipped may
be shipped north at any time regard

establishment of dipping watts and the
dipping must take place under the su-

on Boundary Decision.

London, Feb. 2-King Edward open
ed Parliament today None Of the IA
miliar features were lacking. lnclem-
ent weather, however. spoiled the eff
feet of the loyal procession The
Prince and Princess of Wales had a
small procession from Marlborough
House After entering the House of
Lords their majesties were robed and
preceded by the state regalia, passed
in procession to the chamber where
the Lords were assembled to hear the
Kings speech.
Touching on the Alaska decision the
Kings speech said that on some points
the verdict was favorable to British
claims and on others had been ad-
verse. But it must be matter of
congratulation that the misunderstand-
ings in which the ancient boundary
treaties, made in ignorance of geogra-
phical facts, are so fertile, have in
this case been finally removed from
the field of controversy. Speaking of
the far Eastern crisis the King said:
ANY assistance my government can
usefully render towards the promotion
of pacific solution will be gladly af-
forded."

Before leaving the C Y, William e.

some of the many friends he made
during his stay in the city. The Wo-
mans Board of Trade presented to
him silver salad set as token OF

beautiful inkstand and pen as well as a.

given him by representative citizens.
The latter were accompanied by the
following letter:
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Jan. 80, 1904.
Hon. William e. Martin:
Learning that you are about to leave
this city, in which you have lived for
the past four years, where you have
made many friends, and are to return
to your old home in Socorro, there to
occupy an honorable and responsible
position to which you have been APP
pointed on account of the ability, ca
pacity and fidelity shown by you here
tofore in every position which you
have occupied; few of your friends
have thought it proper to show their
regret at your departure, and extend
congratulations upon your assuming
the duties of your new office by pre-
senting you with these token of friend
ship and esteem, that you may not for
get us in your new home.
The pen and ink stand are emblems
of your new occupation, and we trust
may be in daily use with pleasant
memories of your stay among us.
The dressing case is not expected to
be used daily, in fact, not at ALL it is
entirely ornamental, as to put such an
article into use would surely bring you
into disrepute, and would lose you the
confidence of the "gente" which you
now possess.
While these articles are insignif1-
cant in themselves, let me assure you
that they represent the sincerest sen.
timents of good will and hopes for your
future prosperity and promotion
