BUDA PEST, Dec. 13. Vic
lent as have been the scenes in
past sessions of the Hungarian
parliament they were entirely
overshadowed by the wreckage
effected by the members of the
opposition party this morning in
their successful effort to prevent
the opening of parliament.
A Aquarter of an hour before
the time appointed for the COM
mencement of business the oppo.
,sition mustered full strength. A
guard of forty men had been
provided for the protection OF
the presidents house. Not one
of the government supporters
had arrived, and guard occu-
pied the approaches to the presi
dental platform. The opposi-
ton attacked the guard, destroy
ed the platform and with the
broken pieces drove the guard
from the room. They tore tC
pieces the code on the presi-
dents desk and wrecked the en-
tire interior Of the house. The
liberals have been summoned <
a conference to decide on {
course of action.
Later it was announced thai
the sitting of both houses ar
ranged for today was postponed
until tomorrow.

Roomy and Well Constructed
Ward building at Terrific
rial Insane Hospital
DESCRIPTION OF
THE EDIFICE
EXt", sive New Sewer system
Which Will Meet Needs of In
stituttOM for a Hundred Years.

The large new annex To the territor
ial insane hospital Is almost ready to
turn over to the directors At the
meeting Of the board today 1t was de-
cided to 60 in body to inspect the
new building and also the new sewer
plant. Annex No. 2 is two stories In
height and connected by wide corri-
dor on both floors with the main
building These corridors run for lS0
feet through both stories Of the new
building. They are fourteen feet wide.
Opening on both sides Of the corridor
are roomy, well-ventilated sleeping
rooms for the patients twenty six on
each floor. Also ON each floor are
three rooms for attendants, large bath
rooms, linen rooms and store rooms.
A pleasing feature are the two large
many -windowed sun-rooms, fairly
facing the south These. with big
two-story porch, also facing the south,
win enable the unfortunates to bask in
the maximum of New Mexico sunlight.
The lower ward is for men; the upper
for women The flooring, which is not
yet completed. is to be Of maple. and
new floors of the same desirable wood
are also to be installed on the ground
story of the main building, The inter.
ior woodwork. with the exception OF
the doors, was installed by Henry a
Sundt. 1t is OF native white pine, and
presents an attractive appearance
Tee heating Is admirable. The plan,
II Of shA indirect steam variety and
the heat Is eyealy distributed to all
parts Of the building. including the
floors.
Holt 4 Holt were the architects OF
the well arranged, well built and com
modious annex The work does them
credit. The well known Morrison con
tracing company has the general con
tract for the building. Their work
will doubtless prove satisfactory to
the board. as the firm has high repu
tation. W W Wallace furnished the
stoue aud did the cutting.
The contractors announce that they

that his removal was the height OF
summary action, but those well in
formed concede that tho department,
gave Judge Baker ample time 10 dis
prove the charges against him and 10
give his own side of the case.
The news that New England man
with u New England conscience Is tc
be Bakers successor Is causing no
small amount of uneasiness Ia the
saloon and gaming fraternity In Albu
querque who see In his coming n grand
jury which will not hesitate To put tn,
ban on Sunday carous,ng and the open
front door, They are preparing to
make what they believe will be win
ming fight for the repeal OF the Sunday
law, or failing In that, modification
which will enable them TO keep open
seven days In the week.
The removal Of Judge Baker has
come as a severe jolt to the little ring
OF men commonly known as the Ber
nalillo county gang and against whom
vigorous fight has been maintained
for the past two years by tho Good
Government League, better known ~
the Goo-Goos. The gang is no longer
laughing ut the Goo-Goos, In fact its
leaders are wondering just why they
did not see It all before. Whateve,
may have been Judge Bakers relation
with former Bernalillo county po

IL that he was all too closely united fol

The Sewer System.

Another Il cided Improvement I'M.
derlaken this year at the hospital was
"A very much needed sewer system.
This work under the direction Of Holt
4 Holt, Will be completed about the
same time as the annex. The new
system calls for the use OF an eighteen

the hospital for hundred years, with

zens to that resort before the expira-
tion of SO long a time. The new sewer
is so arranged as tu connect with the
old plant, and also SO that ready con
nection can he made whenever new
buildings are added
1t is surprising TO find that the com

foundations and handsome and mr..

Information Concerning the
Mexican Cotton Boil Weevil.
Texas Farm and Ranch.

Inc ODlJou StaJeS DcpdTtmcHt
of Agriculture has just issued
Farmers Bulletin No. 1S9, I'm
formation Concerning the Next
can Cotton Boil Weevil." 1t was
prepared by w. D. Hunter, Spe-
cial Agent in Charge of Cotton
Boil Weevil Investigations, Divi-
sion of Entomology.
The work of the Division Of En-
tomology for several years has de-
monstrated that there is not even
a remote probability that the boil
weevil will ever be absolutely ex-
terminated. Although the very
large yields of cotton of former
years may perhaps no longer be
possible, it is nevertheless entire
ly feasible to produce cotton at a
margin of profit that will compare
favorably with that involved in the
production of most of the staple
crops of the United States by what
have become known generally as
cultural methods. These methods
consist of notifications of the sys-
tenn of cotton raising made neces-
sary by the weevil. They were
originally suggested by careful
study of the life history and ha-
bits of the pest, and naturally any
improvement that may eventually
be made will be the result of the
continuation of that study. They
have been tested successfully on q
large scale by the Division of En-
tomology, as we'll as by many plan
tiers, during two very unfavorable
seasons. These methods are in
brief as follows: First. Plant
early. Second. Cultivate the
fields thoroughly. Third. Plant
the rows as far apart as experience
with the land indicates is feasible,
and thin out the plants in the rows
thoroughly. Fourth. Destroy. by
blowing up, windrowing, and burn
ing all the cotton stalks in the
fields as soon as the weevils be-
come 80 numerous that practically
all the squares and bolls are being
punctured. Of greatest advantage
is the reducing for the next year
of the number of the weevils by
the destruction of the plants in the
fall. The advantage thus gained
is followed by bending every eff.
fort toward procuring an early
crop the following season. Fifth
While fertilizers are not now useC
to any considerable extent in cot
ton producing in Texas, there is nc
doubt that they should be, MOI
that the land is poor, but the crops
may be procured earlier SO as Il
avoid a considerable degree of in
. jury by the weevil. which is NOR,
destructive to later crops.
The bulletin contains descrip
ton of the weevil, the territory af
fected, and the plan of the inyes
LEGATIONS by the Division of Ento
mology, and gives some of the re
suits of the field work and an ex
pertinent showing the damage re
salting from favorable hibe rnat
ing quarters.
The bulletin concludes with al
account of the legal restriction
concerning the shipment of infes
ted cotton seed and warning t,
cotton planters against tie infa
ton of prices of the seed of GER
tain varieties, and the attempts o
INSCRIPTIONS persons to dispose o
common seed from varions local.
