Died.

Clyde Gilbert Smith. son of Mr..
and Mrs. E. L. Smith who live on
east Fifth street. and whose serious
condition was noted in the Record of
yesterday, died this morning at 4:30
o'clock.
The deceased was nineteen year
of age and had been i'll for many
months with tuberculosis of the

cal skill and for many weeks past
he has been a patient sufferer wait
ing for death which alone could give
him relief.
The funeral services will be held
tomorrow at 2 o'clock from the
Christian church, conducted by Rev.
C. C. Hill. The sympathy of all goes
out to the stricken family who have
watched by the bedside so long.

CROWDS AT THE EXHIBIT.
The Public School is Again Crowded
With Admiring Visitors.

The Worlds Fair exhibit of the
public schools has again been open
to the public today and hundreds of
patrons of the schools have visitei
the school house today to examine
the work. which is certainly a cred
it to the superintendent, teachers
and pupils as well as Roswell. Ros-
well is the first town in the Terri
tory to have it's educational exhibit
ready, and after looking at the ex-
hibit it is not hard to believe that
the Roswell school exhibit will rank
first among the towns of the Ter
ritory.

afternoon at 5 o'clock at his home
on east Seventh street. He came to

to mourn his loss. The burial viii
take place from the home Wednes-
day morning, February oath, to the
ST. John the Baptist Catholic church

AMENDMENTS ARE
 PACKED ID BILL Rural Carriers Can Solicit for
 Newspapers SHALL NOT DISCRIMINATE Dummy Measure Was Reported By Committee and the Bill Will
 Come Before the
 Senate Today.
SHALL NOT DISCRIMINATE E

Washington. March 9.-(Special )-The amenead tae house provisions prohibit ing rural free delivery carriers to act as agents for newspapers, so as to allow the carriers to receive subscriptions for and deliver newspapers upon the request of patrons residing upon the respective routes. The bill as amended in this par ticular will pass the senate and there will then be a fight in conference over the provision.
 The bill reported does not include all the amendments made by the senate com mittee on account of the late session held in order to complete the measure. A dummy bilr' was reported while the clerks prepared the measure for the pub lie printer. The bill will be printed to- night. On account of its incomplete state the exact amount of the increase made. cannot be given, though 1t Is said the bill will carry not more than $L000,O00 over the bill as passed by the house, ex- cept for an emergency measure incor- porated in the bill. The house bill pro- vides for the rental of the Pennsylvania railroad site in New York city for post office purposes but the commltte de- cided that it would be better business policy to buy the site. Therefore an appropriation of $2,OOO,OO0 Is made for that purpose.
 Amendments to Bill.
 Among the important amendments to the bill are the following:
 The salaries of rural free delivery car riers are fixed at $72O a year, and the carriers are permitted to carry merchant disc for hire and receive subscriptions for and deliver newspapers and periodicals so long as this occupation does not in- terfere with the proper discharge of their duties.
 1t is stipulated. however, that the car riers shall not discriminate against any newspaper which desires to avail itself of the privilege of employing them. Sem ator Clays amendment increasing tho salary of the purchasing agent of the postoffice department to s4500 and requir- ing that all supplies must be bought by competition bids the contract to be given to the lowest bidders, and thr '. schedule of the bids must be sent to congress an- nualy, was adopted.
 The committee adopted an amendment for the retransfer of the free delivery in cities to the first assistant postmaster generals division instead of leaving 1t with the fourth assistant.
