THE NEW CHINESE ARMY.
Reorganization Taking Place Under
the Influence and Training Of
the Japanese.

1t has been decided by the Lien
Ping Chu, or Chiense war department,
at Feking, that for the future the new
army of China is to be known as The
standing army of the empire, says
New York Sun writer.
The old Changpei banner army be-
comes the First division under Gen.
Tsao Kun, with headquarters at Pao-
tlngfu, IS miles southwest of Picking
in the province of Chilli The former
First division becomes the Second, I'M
der Gen. Chang Huaichih, headquar-
tiers at Chenan, and the late Second
division is remembered the Fourth,
under Gen. WI Fengling, headquar-
tiers at Machang. The Third division
remains unchanged, and is command
ed by Gen. Tuan Chihkuei. The for.
mer Fourth becomes the Fifth division
under Gen. Tuan Juichei. and occupies
the Imperial Hunting park south of
Picking. The late Fifth, now Sixth, di-
vision is stationed in the province Of
Shantung, with headquarters at Tsi-
nanfu, under Gen. WI Changchun;
and the former Sixth, now Seventh, di-
vision is stationed at Chentingfu,
abou: 20 miles southwest of Paoting-
fu, both places on the line of the Pc
king Hankow railway just opened for
traffic.
1t will be observed that the new or
ganization of the Chinese army is in
divisions after the model of the
Japanese, and that those already
formed are all in the north of China
grouped about the capital, the division
in Shantung covering the road leading
direct to Picking from the German
Kiaochau-Tsinanfur railroad. The young
Chinese officers, who, having completed
their military studies in Japan, lately
retui ned to China, are. with the Jap
anese instructors, placed at the dis
posa, of the Chinese government,
busy organizing and training the new
levics
The troops of the province Of Szech-
| uen raised and organized at the time
of the invasion of Thibet have al
ready seen their first war service.
Those sent in July last to Batange. on
the Kinsha river, which forms, the
| boundary between Szechuen and Thibet

| ing the death Of the Chinese assistant
PRESIDENT, Feng Chuan, gained a de-
lcisive victory over the Thibetans. at

sequently occupied Tingpa, a position
on the road into eastern Thibet.

THE. REAL FOOL

The Las Vegas Optic has spoken. Now let all the
joint statehood people stand in President Roosevelt
included. That paper said on Saturday:
In the light of what the members of the congress
iona party that recently visited the territory have
it seems ridiculous that any man in New Mexico who
claims TO prefer separate to joint statehood stil to
champion the of the latter These congressman
have said that there chance for joint statehood leg
isation at the next congress- and they have also said
that the territories be much longer kept
separate states. The the agitation OF the joint
Stockholders is dropped the the territories VIII
come in But any New Mexican who advocates joint
statehood and yet claims he the separate form
will be considered hereafter, not only a coward but
fool"
Once upon a time there boy who had gone
without food until he stood upon the very of
walton. He met man having under his loaf OF
bread and the half of another loaf The boy begged
man to give him the loaf stating how earfuy hungry he
was The man refused and though the boy begged long

Lack of Interest DiSCOuraees
Promoters to Give up Task
of Organization.
LUMBER MILLS TO THE RESCUE

Indications point out that there will
be very little doing in foot bali in
Albuquerque this fall. F. j. Houston,
the sporting goods man, donated a
ball to any dozen young men who
would attempt the organization of an
eleven, ana several attempts have
been made to get some of the old
talent and all of the new, in the city,
out for practice, but these attempts
have proved so frail that the organiza-
tion of a team has been given up by
the promoters.
Roy Stamm, one of the best players
of last years eleven, called several
practice meets of the talent, but the
attendance was so very light that he
will give Mr.. Houston back his ball,
and join the American Lumber con-
pany mill team, and IL Albuquerque
gets any representation in the foot
ball world this year, 1t will be this
that will have to do the playing.
After the failure of the meeting
yesterday morning of the city talent,
Mr.. Stamm went out to practice with
the lumber mill team yesterday in the
afternoon. He says that this aggre-
cation is a very good one, but not
nearly so strong as the team which
represented Albuquerque last year.
The American lumber mill team is
practicng regularly and an effort will
be made to get games here on
Thanksgiving and Christmas. Fort
Bliss has asked for a game and the
A. and NJ. college eleven has asked
for a game, and It is very likely that
both will be accommodated.

ARRESTED FOR ROBBlNG
RAILROAD TICKET OFFICE
SANTA FE OFFICERS CAPTURE
RATION THIEF IN THIS CITY,
AND RECOVER TICKETS VAL
UED AT $1,000.

Special officer Ben Williams of the
Santa Fe, and Depot Master Wells
made an important capture late Sat
urday evening, when they took into
custody man giving his name as C.
D. Roper, wanted for robbing the
Santa Fe ticket office at Ration, of
tickets valued at $1,000. The robbery
occurred on last Wednesday.
Roper came to this city last week
with a gang of painters working for
the railway company. He was EN-.
ployed in painting the local station,
and it is presumed that he gained ad-
mission TO the Ration office while en-
gagged in painting the interior of the
station at that point.
A search of Roper's grip at tne
time he was arrested developed the
fact that it contained the missing
tickets and this was deemed sufficient
evidence on which to take him back
to Ration. He was taken back there
yesterday morning in charge of a
special Santa Fe officer, where he will
be given preliminary hearing on the
charge of grand larceny.

SOME INFORMATION

1t is exceedingly difficult for the morning paper to
state accurately In its Sunday issue it says
that the Bank of Commerce forward among the
protestants against the borrowing of by the county
commissioners the district court when thte county
already had the money the hands Of its legally elected
treasurer. This is absolutely incorrect The Bank OF
Commerce took no action in the matter whatever. W.
s. stricler as did NJ w Flournoy. and several dozen
leading citizens lrage payers did sign the
protest. but the Journal writer though able to
get through his head the difference between the of
in the position of associate justice of the supreme
and the of the same man as district judge,
certainly should be able distinguish getween the
of a tax payer his private capacity and the act of
bank through one officials The bank took ac.
tion in the case, whatever.
Then the Journal undertakes to show differ
ences between the board in 1904 the board
county commissioners but the important differ
ences it fails to mention The Citizen will kindly aid the
morning paper;
The former board obtained the money, the present
did not the former was backed its desire the
money by many of the leading citizens, the latter was
opposed Overwhelmingly by the payers; the borrow
ing by the legal was to save property
to save life property being the conditions
on which such borrowing may be made-+ne borrowing
by the latter Illegal the county had the money
Hence the petition injunction, and the granting of It,
Furthermore the money to the flood aborers, and
carry the work of saving property in imminent
danger of destruction obtained on the personal Sc
cury of responsible parties and not by the county com
mssioners SUCH which probably accounts for the fact
the borrowing of the not entered upon
the journal of commissioners proceedings though the
appropriation of funds meet the loan properly
corded.
That it makes good deal of difference to the Jour
nal as to whose is gored plainly appeared in the
water controversy of a few months and that it
makes a good deal of difference to the tax payers,
whether money shall be spent valuable property

legality which is before the courts for adjudication
