The Merchant Primo. Returns.

Charles Leo Morrison of the firm
Of Morrison Bros, returned yesterday
from a two months trip to New York
City, where he has been buying fall
and winter stock for his immense
store in this city. He says that he
secured the New York market for
the latest in wearing apparel for men
women and children. and that he Sc
cured without doubt the finest and
most beautiful line that has ever
been brought to any city in New Mex
leo. Mr.. Morrison is a very critical
buyer and the Roswell citizens are
assured hat they can buy as stylish
garments in Roswell as in New York
City, and it is not necessary to send
our dollars where you will not have
opportunity of ever getting your
hands on them again.
Roswell has as fine, metropolitan
stores as any eastern city of twenty
i've thousand people. and the cata-
ogue habit should be forgotten and
overcome. Keep the Pecos Valley mo-
aey in the Pecos Valley, and the mer
chants and citizens generally will
thrive and be happy.

Weak


Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine Of every
one hundred people who ave heart trouble
can remember when II was simple indiges-
ton. 1t is a scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach. putting 1t up against the
heart. This interferes with the action of
the heart. and in the course Of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

KUR0PATKlN DECIDES
TO RETIRE N0RTHWARD.

st. Petersburg. June 2s 7;1o p. m.-
The Associated Press is informed on
good authority that Gen. Kuropatkin
has decided to withdraw northward.
This move gives the Russians the ad-
vantage of being nearer their base of
supplies and places the Japanese at
the disadvantage of having longer
lines of communication.
It is pointed out that Kuropatkin no
longer prevents a juncture of the
enemy's forces by remaining at Ia
Tche Kiao, as he might thereby i'm
peril the safety of his own troops, as
the desperate character of the fight
ing at Ia Pass and Fen Shut Pass
June 27 shows the Japanese are in
strong force uncomfortabIy near the
Russian flank.

DUM0NT'S AIRSHIP WAS
PUT OUT OF BUSINESS.
Some yandaI sIashed Up the Gas
Bag of the OUTFIT.

Worlds Fair Grounds. st. Louis.
June 2S.-Some time during the night
the gas bag of Santos Dumont's air
ship was cut and slashed in such a
manner as to preclude all possibility of
it's being repaired in time to allow an
ascension on July 4. The work was
apparently done with a jackknife.
There arc at least twenty long rips
in the bag, and Prof. Carl Meyers.
who has charge of the aeronautic con-
tests declares to-day that 1t will take
at least two weeks to repair the dam
age.
The big gas bag had not yet been
taken from the crate in which II came
from Paris. Being an adhesive mate
rial, the bag was hung in folds from
Stats nailed near the top Of the crate.
There were several folds of the bag
over each slat. and the vandal drew
his knife across these, cutting through
from one to four thicknesses OF the
material with each slash. The work
was evidently done In haste as there
were about a dozen Stats covered with
the folds OF the bag. and only four or
five of them were cut.
When the damage was discovered a
messenger was sent to NJ. Dumont and
he hurried TO the scene.
We'll" he said, after a critical ex-
animation OF the damaged bag. 1T Is

a tilt in the meeting of the House APP

tion of the committee in striking from

for pages. assistant doorkeepers. port
ers, chaDlains and other employees of
the House and Senate. Mr.. Slaton
moved the reconsideration and after a
warm discussion it was carried by a
vote of 10 to 4.
Mr.. Hall. who had been responsible
for striking this section at the last
meeting of the committee, remarked
to Mr.. Slaton during the discussion.
That a very good platform to run
for Speaker on" 1t is we'll known

ployes in the House is made by the
Speaker.
II will not tolerate any such insinua..
tion from you or any one else" replied
Mr.. Slaton sharply, and at the same
time he started for Mr.. Hall.

from coming together. and later in
the meeting the belligerents shook

LAY OF THE LAND WHERE
FORCES ARE FIGHTING.

st. Petersburg, June 20, 1852 a. m.-
No further advices from the front
had been received up to midnight.
though news from Gen. KuroDatkin
and Rear Admiral Without lin COM
mand of the naval force at Port Ar
thur, was eagerly awaited. The usual
rumors of heavy fighting pervaded the
city. but they were based wholly on
the fact that the armies are in cose
touch.
Though it appears now from Gen.
Kuropatkin's tactics that a heavy en-
gagement may be deferred for some
days. it is possible that the Japanese
may rush matters, but 1t is not gen.
orally expected here that Gen. Kuro-
patkin will give battle until he reaches
a position of his own selection.
1t may clarity the military situation
to explain that the country in which
the armies are now coming into con-
tact consists OF a series of mountain
ctains. running parallel with the rail-
way, alongside Of which the Russians
are falling back as the japanese ad-
vance Fen Shut. Molten and Dalen are
all passes which take their names
from the mountains over which they
run. Gen. Kuroki. who has hereto
fore been east of these mountains, is
advancing to the westward from Stu
Yen. through a very rough country,
and his columns must traverse the
passes named before emerging into the
more open country along the railway,
approximately abreast Of Ia Tchs
Kgao, Hat Cheng and Lao Yang.
The Russian outposts and the Jap
aneGe are nov IN close touch AZ these
passes. The Russians, after harassing
the japanese advance from each Of
these positions. are falling back on
Gen. Kuropatkin's main body. which Ia
supposed 70 be somewhere between
Isia0 Yang and Ia Tche kiao.
