SCHOOL BOARD HOLDS
REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING
APPROPRIATION MADE FOR PUR-
CHASE OF MORE EQUIPMENT
FOR MUSIC DEPARTMENT, AND
MUCH ROUTINE BUSINESS WAS
TRANSACTED.

Last night at the Central school
building the board of education met
in regular monthly session for the
transaction of routine business. The
board voted an appropriation for the
purchase of music and additional
equipment for the music department
of the city schools which will place
this department on a plane with the
other leading departments in the
schools.
superintendent j. e. Clark's report
for the month of October was present
ed and accepted. The report gave
some interesting figures as to the en-
rollment for the month just passed,
showing that there was an average
daily attendance of 1890 pupils, the
largest for any corresponding month
in the history of the city schools. Al
though the schools are crowded 10
especial inconvenience is being ex-
p%erienced and the work is progressing
very satisfactorily under the %supervi-
sion of the new superintendent.
Permission was granted the New
Mexico Educational association to
use the high school during its meet
ing here in December. The board also
approved the oratorical contest, to be
held as a feature of this meeting. The
board adjourned, after t~ransacting
much minor routine business, which
had accumulated since the last meet
ing.

other half. By the contract with the
city. Mr.. Rifles is required to make
his report within ninety days, allowing
for sickness or unavoidable delays.
Property owners on South Walter
street appealed to the council last
night to extend the mains on that
street from Iron e to Bell ave-
nue.. The petition was signed by al
most all of the property owners in the
district affected and was referred to
the water committee for immediate
report.
o. n. Marion appeared for the
Southwestern Brewery and Ice com
pany to ask permission to lay pipes
across North First street to carry
heat and water from the company's
plant to its new office building about
to be erected at the corner of First
and Fruit avenue. The permission
was granted.
The official reports for October
showed a balance in the city treasury
on the first of November of $11,S47.
The city clerk reported licenses col
lected to the amount of S2,S32, and
the chief of police reported fines for
the month to the amount of 500.
Mayor Mckee asked for a report
from the building committee relative
to the projected city hall. DR.. Harri-
son, chairman of the committee, re-
ported that he had received a price
on the property on the corner of Ii
jeras road and Second street and that
he had been unable to get a reduc-
ton. Alderman Harrison recommend
ed that the property be purchased.
After some discussion the committee
was instructed to make further inves-
tigation and report at the next meet
ing of the council.

BURGLARY LOOKOUT
WORE A GREY COAT
LITTLE GIRL FURNISHES CLUE
THAT MAY LEAD TO CAPTURE
OF HOUSE THIEVES.

What may prove a clue to the
thieves that pilfered several rooms at
the Minneapolis house Sunday night,
has been discovered. A little girl at
the Minneapolis house says that she
saw a man with a long, gray, coat and
SLOUGH hat standing IN front of the no.
tel between 5 and 6 o'clock, the hour
during which the burglaries were
committed, He vas a stranger TO her,
and she told her mother about him,
after the burglary had been discov-
cred. He stood directly in front of the
hotel so that he could look through a
hall that runs the whole length of the
house, and at the same time see the
whole front Of the hotel, and she no
ticed that he kept turning his head
from side to side, as if looking for
somebody.
This man must have been a lookout
for the man or men who did the act
ual work, and doubtless the discovery
of his identity would lead to the ar
rest Of the whole gang. No arrests
had been made at a late hour this af-
ternOOn.

WHO Is HESTER ANN
ALEXANDER SMITH?
The Woman Who Wanted TO
be Found, Can't be
Found.
A MYSTERY FOR FIFTY YEARS

Who is Mrs. Hester Ann Alexander
Smith that followed a man with a
hand organ and a monkey away from
her home IN one of the eastern states
fifty years ago? Apparently she re-
sides in Albuquerque, or has resided
here within the past few years. and
that she has advertised from this
place for relatives whom she does not
even know. These advertisements
have brought results, according to a
clipping from the Vantage Recorder,
a paper published at Sussex. n. j., but
1t seems now that the woman that
wanted to be found. can not be found.
The story of her disappearance, as
told by a lady who says that she
knows all about the affair. and given
TO the Vantage Recorder. is as fol-
lows:
Fifty years ago. Hester Ann Alex
ander, daughter of James and Sarah
Margerson Alexander, went away from
her home near New Milford, N. Y. 1t
was thought at the time that she had
wandered of into the woods and died,
since no trace of her could be found.
She had a number of brothers and sis
tiers, one brother, George w. Alex
ander, now living at Rudetown, near
Hamburg. She also had a sister who
married Theodore Wood (who Mrs.
Williams thinks is now deceased).
Mr.. Wood was a son of Jonathan
Wood, of Vernon, and a brother to
Halt Wood, who now lives in Vantage
township, near Woodbourne. James
Paddock, whom she mentions in her in
quiries as to relatives, was married
to Nancy Utter. of Vernon. and Mary
Paddock was his oldest daughter.
Nancy Utter was Mrs. Williams STEP
fathers sister. James Paddock was an
uncle to Hester Ann Alexander's moth
er, and used to be called Jim Red
Head
The Aunt Hester Lyon who gave
Mrs. Williams some of her informa-
ton, was Margerson or Mergerson,
and a sister to Hester Ann Alexan-
der's mother. The parents Of Hester
Ann Alexander are dead, her mother
living at Hopewell, N. j.. at the time
of her demise some years ago.
Albuquerque. New Mexico, the place
from which the inquiries came, is a
town of about 5000 inhabitants, and
Mrs. Williams has written to the lady
giving her the full information print
ed above. 1t is another instance OF
what newspaper publicity will do in
solving what would otherwise have
probably always remained a mystery
To the Lost Mrs. Smith.
Mrs. Smith, Albuquerque, N. NJ:
Not long ago we observed your ad-
vertisement in the paper, whereupon
Mrs. Isaac Williams gave the reporter
the above facts. Now Mrs. Smith, II
you want to correspond with your rel
atives, please write to-:
Mrs. Hester Lyon, Sussex, N. j., or
Mrs. Isaac Williams, Unionville, N. ",
who will explain everytfsng to you.
This letter is written by p. E.
Kahn, a brother in law of Mrs. VIII
liams."

BERNALILLO COUNTY NEEDS
MORE SCHOOL TEACHERS

Who is going t o come to the res
cue of Superintendent Stroup, and
help to teach the young idea of Ber-
nalillo county how to shoot? There
are several districts where no school
is being held because of the inability
of superintendent Stroup to get teach
ers, and several of these districts are
very desirable positions, too, consid-
ering that the teachers do not neces-
sarily know how to speak Spanish,
and because of their convenience to
the city.
The Carpenter school in Tijeras
canyon, near Whitcomb Springs, is
n of those, although the salary is
small. The small salary proposition
seems to be the great difficulty in the
majority of the rural districts, and
it seems as though It is up TO the
county to raise the salary scale.

LOUIS ILFELD.
THOMAS
Garbage Ordinance Passed.

At last the council has adopted some
plan for disposing of the garbage and
refuse of the city. The ordinance
providing for a garbage system pre-
scented by Alderman Hanley at the
last regular meeting of the council
came up last night on its third read
ing and after ONE discussion was
passed by an unanimous vote. The or
dinance has been approved by the
board of health and by all the physi-
clans who have examined it and it is
expected to work satisfactorily. The
ordinance provides for the appoint
ment of a city scavenger by the mayor,
whose duty it will be to collect all
garbage, refuse, dead animals and filth
of all kinds and cart the same to a
spot to be purchased by the city,
where a kiln will be built for the
burning of this trash.
The ordinance further provides that
the city scavenger must furnish his
own teams and wagons and in the way
of compensation he is to receive a
sun lot exceeding twenty-five cents
for each can of garbage or refuse re-
moved. Certain prices are fixed for
the removal of dead animals, based
upon the size of the animal and the
difficulty of removal. All heAsehold-
ers are required to keep covered me-
tallic trash cans, one for garbage and
the other for ashes. The only expense
to the city will be the purchase Of a
suitable dumping ground where the re-
fuse will be burned.
Salary for City Engineer.
Alderman Hanley presented an ordi-
nance providing for a city engineer
ing department and the employment
of a city engineer at a fixed salary.
The ordinance was referred TO the
finance committee for consideration.
1t is very voluminOus and remOdeis
the duties of the city engineering de-
partment, provides for markers and
monuments for establishing grades
and requiring more elaborate and per-
manent records.
Another pet measur presented by
MIR. Hanley was one asking that the
council provide for a better system
of officially numbering the houses in
the city. Acting upon Alderman Han
ley's recommendation the council
granted to +. M. Carroll the right TO
number the houses in Albuquerque
and 10 erect street signs. This work
is to be done without expense to the
city and when completed win do away
with the present unsatisfactory meth
Cd of numbering houses.
Much Routine Business.
Several additional notice ordinances
calling for sidewalks in various parts
OF the city were passed last night I'M
der suspension of the rules TO take the
place of defective ordinances already
passed. On these latter the property
owners still have twenty days in
which TO let contracts for their walks
before the city proceeds 70 build for
them.
The sewer committee last night
asked and was granted authority to
order a carload OF sewer pipe 10 meet
demands of property owners.
On motion Of Alderman WilkersOn,
the council approved and ordered
the mayor to sign the contracts of the
city and the Water Supply company
and Mr.. A. c. Rifles, the expert who
Is to examine the company's property
and pass on its value. By the council
resolution ordering the examination

CITY CAN'T AFFORD
new FIRE APPARATUS
Finance Committee of COun.
Gil Reports it Has
No Funds.
GARBAGE SYSTEM IS CREATED

The proposed SIC, 900 increase in the
equipment of the Albuquerque fire de-
partment. which increase was to con
sist of the purchase of a fire engine,
hook and ladder truck, more hose and
horses and the employment of addi-
tionai firemen to man the new equip
ment, has probably fallen through.
This result is all due to the fact that
the finance committee of the city coun-
Gil reported to that body last night
that it could not see how the city
could afford at this time to make such
an expenditure, inasmuch as il has not
the money in the treasury. The re-
port of the finance committee as pre-
scented by Chairman Ilfeld, and adopt
ed by the council, is as follows:

Life and thought have gone away,
Side by side
Leaving door and windows wide.
Careless tenants they!
All within is dark as night;
In the window is no light;
And no murmu at the door:
So frequent on its hinge before.
Close the door, the shutters close,
Or thTo' the windows we shall see,
TIN n%akedness and vacancy,
OF the dark, deserted house.
Come away; no of mirth
Is here or merry making sound
The house was builded of the earth,
And shall fall gain to ground
Come away; for Life and Thought.
Here no longer dwell,
But in a city glorious
A great and distant city-have bought
A mansion in"corruptible.
Would they could have stayed with us.
Oh, Thou Eternal One! whose
power called into existence the soul
of our departed friend and who has
now called it to Thyself and whom
many of us love to call Our Father, We
commit to Thy care and keeping, the
spirit which has left this corpse. May
the flowers of immortality which hope
and love have here caused TO spring
up in our hearts, blossom and make
fragrant our lives. May hatred, envy,
malice and all evil be banished from
our lives and may we always act to-
ward one another with mutual conf
dence and forbearance, as children of
n loving Father.
We ask Thy gracious benediction
upon the bereaved, and Thy help and
guidance while we live, in the hope
and promise OF a blessed immortality.
Amen.
After these beautiful words Under
taker Strong removed the lid and a
last look vas taken at the face of the
departed husband, father, friend and
pioneer. The casket was then borne
to the hearse, and the cortege wendell
its silent way to the depot where
the casket with its dead was placed on
the north-bound passenger train for
Denver.
There are several rumors in %circula-
ton as to the requests in the willyof
the deceased. The Citizen has been
requested to state that the will was
informally opened yesterday, in order
to follow out the instructions of the
deceased as to the disposition Of his
remains. The contents of the paper
will be made known officially on the
return to the city of Messrs. Fergus
son and Dieckmann, accompanied by
the son, Arno Huning, who, 1t is now
thought, will meet them in Denver.
The deceased had a brother, Henry
Huning. residing at Santa Barbara,
Cal. He was notified of the death by
wire yesterday afternoon.

Cash balance on hand at end of

The above standing of the city's fl
nances speaks for itself. Not only
has the city no funds to buy the pro-
posed fire engine, but it demonstrates
clearly that the city is unable to pay
the additional cost of running an en-.
CINE. The only possible way to pur-
chase a fire engine would be by pub
lie subscription of the citizens to pay
running expenses, the city furnishing
storage room and the present city fire
department to assist in running the
engine.

RECRUDESCENT REDONDo

Probably the most important real estate transaction
of the year in this neghborhood, viewed from the
public standpoint, is Henry E. Huntingtons purchase
at Redondo 1t would be more expressive in a general
way to say purchase of Redondo the deal includes
all Of the large original townsite except compara-
lively few lots The extent of the purchase Is shown in
the fact that the townste comprises 1000 acres in
Guiding long stretch of beach not exceed for
bathing purposes for picturesque beauty by any
line of seacoast in the world.
The purchase in question is especially important
in public sense because it points to vast and costly
improvements. AS the people of this region know the
purchaser of Redondo plants his money where 1t will
grow and yield attractive results we'll good profits
The public knows, without being told, what the Re-
dondo investment signifies. 1t means that the natural
beauties and advantages at Redondo will be i'm
proved without Limitation of expense. 1t means also
that the transportation service between Los Angeles
and Redondo will be made nearly perfect human
ingenuity and money make it.
great opportunity has been released by the
ington. For reason which is not worth nquirng
into now Redondo has made comparatively little prog
in development, Notwithstanding its superior
natural advantages. Its advancement seems to have
been checked by lack of the and the progressive
spirit that will move 1t now.
AS the expansion of any town district hereabout
involves direct benefit to Los Angeles the purchase
noted may be regarded as Of highest importance to
this city.

Attempts of the switchmen's union

anything in favor of the strikers. and
Deputy Sheriff Franklin was quickly

everything running along in its usual
order and no sign Of any i'll feeling.
General Manager Wells of the Salt
Lake refuses to discuss the strike. He
