Gently of the cowardly murder of

Baird, Texas, his brother, John Max

THE HOO HOO
HOUSE DESTROYED
Fire is Supposed to Have Started
From an Electric Light Wire
Loss $4,000.

st. Louis, June pa fire, which f0i
time threatened the Texas and many
other buildings at the Worlds Fair
today, destroyed the Hoo Hoo House
with loss of $4,000. 1t is supposed
to have started from an electric light
wire.
The house of the Hoo Hoo was one
of the first buildings finished for the
exposition. 1t was erected by the lum-
bermen of the United States and the
rooms were constructed of different
fine, rare woods. Fearing that the
Texas building would be destroyed,
the women of that state worked hero
lcally to save the precious relics of
early history. Sheets were taken
from the beds in the building and used
to carry the relics to places of safety.
One point of the star shaped building
OF Texas is within Is feet of the Hoo
Hoo House and in the large first floor
room of this point the relics have been
on exhibition. Nothing but the fact
that the wind was not blowing to-
wards it, saved the Texas building.

Big GOLD STRIKE.
In Red River Mining District, Taos
County-SyIvanite Ore Running
$1,000 to the Ton.

George B. Paxton, managing direct.
or of the Red River Copper Company
in the Red River mining district, in
Taos County, who is temporarily in
this city, has just received letter
from that section regarding the new
strike recently made there. This from
all accounts seems to be a great one
indeed Mr.. Paxton's correspondent
says: "There is boom on, and they
are coming in by the twos, fours and
skies, hiking up Bitter Creek and stalk
ing the whole country adjacent to
Lachiniches' independence mine. John
Lachiniche and Louis Marchino have
made by long odds the best strike ev-
er made in New Mexico. They have
at present over six feet of ore and 26
inches of what looks like sylvanite.
Mr.. Gardiner of the Anaconda assay
Office, has given assays of over $1,000,
$1,000 in gold and the balance in
silver. 1t is simply immense and is
bound to make camp The rock
roasted is mass of gold bulbs, each
as large as grain of corn. The pros
pectors are coming in such rush and
are so enthusiastic that they are stalk
ing every bit of ground in sight, and
some of them have put their locating
stakes on the June Bug claim which
has been patented years ago. Every
one is feeling elated over the strike.
The independence mine is about three
fourths of mile from Pooler's Mem
phis mine to the east and located
about midway between Red River and
La Belle about four and half miles
east of Red River The western line
of the Maxwell land grant is near this
location but does not reach it,

kuropatkin Will Not Give Battle.
st. Petersburg, June 24-Today's
news from the theater of war indi-
Gates that Kuropatkin will not give
battle to the combined armies under
Oku and Kuroki near Kai Chou.
Doubt is now cast upon the impress
sion prevailing for several days that
the bulk of the Liao Yang army has
been advancing southwark, though it
may be that Kuropatkin is concentrat-
ing his army in the neighborhood of
Hal Cheng. The only thing that can
be stated with certainty is that infor-
nation received by the war office
shows that Kuropatkin has no inten-
ton of seriously contesting the Jap
anese advance on Kai Chou, which
fwould seem to carry with it the deci.
sion to practically abandon the entire
peninsula to the enemy and would n1.

So Says Charles N. Bregg, Staff
Correspondent Of the Gazette
and the Chronicle Telegraph
at Pittsburg.
GRAND POSSIBILITIES
Santa Fe's Beautiful Location and
Magnificent Climate. e...BeIieves in
Single Statehood for the
Territories.

Charles M. Bregg of Pittsburg,
Pennsylvania, staff correspondent of
the Pittsburg Gazette and the Pitts
burg Chronicle Telegraph, each having
a large circulation and being of in
fluence not only in the Smoky City,
but also throughout the great state of
Pennsylvania, is in the city en- route
to San Francisco. He has rowing
commission to write feature stories
and impressionistic articles on the
people whom he meets and the coun-
try he will traverse from Colorado to
the coast. To representative of the
New Mexican Mr.. Bregg said:
81 have been remaj kably impressed
with everything have seen and heard
since | came into this Territory. it's
yastness, the splendid variety of it's
climate and the evidences of enter
prise that | have seen on every side.
At Las Vegas and above the route of
the Santa Fe Railway are touches of
the vigorous purpose of the people to
carve out of these mountains, plains
and valleys country in which life will
be worth living. OF my short stay in
Santa Fe can only speak in the most
enthusiastic way Speaking simply
from an impressionistic standpoint, my
first impressions of the quaint city
were overwhelming. It's calm beauty
under moonlight, the memories of it's
ancient civilization with it's architec-
tural evidences of modern enterprise
and progress. all rose up before me as
gazed off to the mountain rims that
surround the city. Santa Fe's climate
seems to be ideal and shall later avail
myself of its splendid and invigarating
qualities. That you people are alive
to the future possibilities of this great
empire of the southwest there is
plenty of evidence, but | wonder that
you are not even more sensible of the
lavish gifts that nature has bestowed.
MY visit has not been primarily de-
voted to political affairs, but l have
learned enough to understand why
statehood for both New Mexico and
Arizona is a question of intense i'm
pOrtance to the present and future
prospects of the people of the terri
tories. | can also very easily under
stand why joint statehood, under the
plan suggested, can only result in
harm and confusion while at the same
time destroying all precedents in the
admission of territories.
my short stay in the Territory dis
qualities me for specific opinion, but
| am sure the best sentiment of both
territories will disapprove joint state
hood, even though it be offered as
last resort
Il am so charmed with Santa Fe, it's
delightful climate and beautiful situa-
lion that | shall return, after brief
visit to the coast, and spend some
line in this vicinity We eastern peO-
Die have heard much of Santa Fe and
Jicinity and are investing some mon
~ in New Mexico enterprises, but I
I'M convinced the half has never been
old"
