Prominent Feature in Trial.

New York, April 26.-Nan Patterson
apparently had fully recovered from
her indisposition when she appeared
in court yesterday for continuance OF
her trial for the murder of Caesar
Young. There was color in her cheeks
and she ~ad to be In excellent spir'
it's when She >red the court room
and took her seat counsel table.
The plain black suit w.4Sch she wore
during this and the previous trial has
been discarded and in its place she
wore a black and white checked dress
and q rough lace hat with white lin.
ing. The revolver, with which 1t Is
alleged Young was killed and which
it is believed will figure prominently
in the prosecution, made its appear
ance as soon as the trial was resumed.
It has been identified by several wit.
nesses as the weapon found in Young's
pocket soon after the tragedy and to-
day the line of Identification will be
followed down to the time 1t was
brought into court.
In the trial today, PawnbrokeI
Stern was called and failed to identi

WORK HAS BEEN RESUMED.
In Colorado to Be Rapidly Pushed
to Completion.

Durango, Colo, April 26.-M. c. Hin.
derlider, division superintendent of the
u. s. reclamation service, and fifteen
men have arrived here for the purpose
of resuming work on the government
canal and reservoir which will pro-
vide water to irrigate from 10000 to
1000 acres in the La Plata Valley.
The work was commenced last fall and
was suspended through the winter on
account of the deep snow. The camps
are now being established. Water
will be taken from the Animas River
above Animas City and carried
through Durango. around the side OF
Smelter Mountain, and conveyed by
means of tunnel two miles long
through the divide to the La Plata
Valley.
Sufficient work was done last fall
to demonstrate that the cost would
be as much as $50 per acre and prob,
ably more, and in order to lessen the
cost the Durango board of trade Is
trying to induce the secretary of the
interior to bring the Navajo lands ly'
ing on the north side of the San Juan
River under this irrigation system. II
successful in this the cost per acre
will be considerably lessened.

secured complete protection for beav-
er and ptarmigan, and close season
for wild pigeon to 1910, and that the
close seasons on antelope, elk, noun
tain sheep and pheasants have been
extended. So far as l have noticed
nearly every change in the law seems
to be an improvement, and while you
have not been able to accomplish ev-
erything you wished, you have certain
ly made considerable progress this
year. The difficulty in securing ade-
quate protection for migratory birds
and water fowl is not peculiar to New
Mexico, but exists in many parts OF
the country. trust, however, that
you will keep this matter in mind and
renew your efforts at the first Oppor
tunity.
congratulate you on your reap
pointment, and desire to thank you for
informing us so promptly Of the fact
If we could obtain copies of the new
game bills and notice of appointment
of game wardens from every state in
the Union as promptly as we have
from New Mexico, our. work would be
greatly simplified.
Very truly yours,
T. S. PALMER,
In Charge Of Game Preservation.
