Mr.. and Mrs. Robson repaired to
their own home, being the Green
wood residence, on Fourth street,
where they are now residing-the
place having been fixed up for them,
and entirely prepared for their spe-
cial use. Both the young people are
too well known in Washbnrn, where
they have made their home and
grown up together, TO need anything
especially said for them by the
TINES. They are among the best
and most popular of our young peo-
pie, and Mr.. Robinson in his position
as foreman of The TINES has come
into close contact with most of our
business people, while the bride
for her many ovable traits of char
acter has eLdeared herself to large
circle of friends, and all these join
with THE TIMES in extending their
heartiest congratulations to the
newly-wed young people.

SCHOOL OF MINES ITEMS
Professor Bagg Issues Important
Contribution to Geology of
California.

President Keyes spent the
early part of the week i'll Albu-
querque.
Several interesting books on
forestry were received by the Ii
brary this week.
Ellis McDougall left for FL
Paso Tuesday to attend the Min
ing Congress. He will be gone
about a week.
Professor Bagg, formerly in
charge of the Department of
Mineralogy in the School, is now
permanently located in Chihua-
hua, Mexico.
The foot ball team is now
training regularly and is rapidly
getting into first-class condition.
The new suits give the men a
fine appearance.
Professor BrinSmade and the
members of the mining class eX-
pect to spend the Thanksgiving
vacation among the mines in
making inspections.
Prof. G. NJ. Lewis, head of the
mining department i'll the Chris
tian College at Canton, China,
gave very instructive lecture at
the School Tuesday afternoon,
on the subject of Mining Con-
ditions in the Chinese Empire. y
Professor Smith and several of
the members of the surveying
class returned Monday from
Kelly, where they had been maxi
ing surveys of mining claims in
that neighborhood. They report
an abundance of snow in the
mountains.
The u. s. Geological Survey
has recently issued an important
contribution to the Tertiary geo.
ology of California, by Prof.
Rufus M. Bagg, at one time con-
nected with the School. 1t will
be remembered that two years
ago when Professor Bagg had
this work nearly completed the
manuscripts, illustrations and
materials were entirely destroyed
at the time the Professors house
burned in west Socorro. This
loss was one of the most serious
that he sustained by that disas-
trous fire.

SUIT AGAINST CITY OF SOCORRO.
Brought by Hon. T. b. Catron for
Interest on Refunding Bonds
of 1897.

Hon II. b. Catron has brought
suit in the first judicial district
at Santa Fe against Edward l..
Price, as treasurer of the City of
Socorro, for the collection of SS25
interest on 80, 400 of the city's
refunding bonds of 1897. A part
of these bonds were at one time
held by the late Judge Hamilton,
but he sold his share of them to
Mr.. Catron. Demand was re-
Gently made for the payment of
the accrued interest. Under the
instruction of the city council,
however, the treasurer refused to
make the payment. This action
of the council is probably based
ON the theory that the bonds are
illegal. AT any rate, that theory
is entertained by good legal
talent. The city treasurer has
employed Attorney Jas. G.. Fitch
to look after the city's interest in
this matter.

MINER KILLED IN MOGOLLONS
William Peckham's Neck Broken BY
Falling Down Shaft.

William Peckham, a miner in
the employ of the Ernestine
Company at Mogollon, was in
stantly killed Saturday night by
falling down a shaft.
Mr.. Peckham was in charge of
a machine in the Last Chance
mine and on the night in ques-
tion was working in the tenth
level at depth of 300 feet.
The machine in some manner be-
came disabled and in order to
complete his shift he went to
tralnming, While he was taxi
ing an empty ore bucket from
the cable on the hoist he lost his
balance and fell through trap
door of the station on the tenth
level and down to the bottom of
the next level, a distance of lit
tie over thirty feet. No one was
present when the accident occur
red, and it is not known exactly
how it occurred, but it is sup
posed that while engaged in
loosening the bucket he stepped
over and fell through the open
passage way. The body was
discovered a short time after
ward and at once taken to the
surface. 1t was found, however,
that death must have resulted
instantly, as his neck was broken
and he was badly bruised and
cut about the head. Silver City

THAT BOHEMIAN
COLONY PROJECT.
Will Be Founded and Will Add
Greatly to the Material Pros
perity Of This City,
Mr.. KlRCHMAN GOES TO CHICAGO
And Will There Make Final Ar
rangements. He Has Completed
all Preliminaries Here

Max kirchman. the prominent
Bohemian citizen of Chicago who
has undertaken to found a colony
of his fellow Bohemiau-Amcri-
cans at Socorro, after having
completed all the necessary pre-
liminaries here left Thursday
morning for Chicago, where the
final arrangements will be made
to enter upon the active work of
the enterprise.
While here Mr.. Kirchman Sc
cured the necessary franchise
from the city council, also an OPP
tion on all the unoCcupied lands
belonging to the city within the
city grant. He also secured OPP
tions on between three and four
thousand acres of land belong
ing to Abran .Abeyta and John
E. Griffith and OF other property
belonging to private parties.
AS soon as Mr.. Kirchman has
completed the final arrangements
with the Chicago parties back
ing the enterprise, he will return
to Socorro and begin active oper-
ationS. He will first spend sew
eral thousand dollars, if neces-
sary, in an effort to secure artes-
ian water. If this effort is not
successful, he will then install
pumping plants with capacity
enough to pump from the rivers
underflow all the water needed
for purposes of irrigation. A
great variety of other lines of
business than farming will be es-
tablished i'll connection with this
colonization enterprise, and all
will be on large scale.
The company which Mr.. Kirch-
man is organizing will be capi-
talized for one million dollars,
and he expects to bring no less
than five hundred families of his
fellow countrymen to Socorro
within the next three years. 1t
will be readily seen that this
means much for the city. In
fact, the Gem City now has a
good prospect of recovering from
the disastrous effects which re-
suited from the closing of the
Rio Graude smelter several years
ago.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

Executive Office Santa Fe.
New Mexico, November 3, 1905.
Whereas, The year now draw
ing to a close has brought to the
people of this Territory many
blessings and much happiness;
and
Whereas, The President of
the United States has designat-
ed and set apart by proClama-
tion Thursday, the thirtieth day
of November, a. ID. 1905, as a
day of national thanksgiving and
has asked that throughout the
land the people gather i'll their
homes and places of worship,
and there render thanks unto the
Most High for the manifold
blessings of the past year:
Now, therefore, /, Miguel A.
Otero, governor of the territory
of New Mexico, do hereby recon-
mend that the people of this
territory observe the same.
1t is further recommended that
the said S0th day of November,
A. ID. 1905, be treated as a legal
holiday in New Mexico. We in
New Mexico have peculiar cause
for thanksgiving, i'll the increase
of our herds and ilocks and the
bounteouS products of the yield
ing earth, the large amount of
railroad building now in progress
and contemplated; the great ac-
tivity i'll our mining interests;
the influx of population and of
capital, and the promising hope
of our near admission as state;
and for our freedom from epi-
demic, fire, flood and strikes,
which have afflicted other por-
tions of the nation.
Let us on that day refrain
from all unnecessary labor, and
in the mystic home circle and
places dedicated to public wor-
ship, give thanks to the Supreme
Ruler of the Universe for His
constant mercies to us, and in
woke His continued favor, care
and guidance.
Let it, also, be day for the
reunion of families, the awaken
1 ing of patriotic sentiment, the
ministeriug to the afflicted, the
comforting of the distressed, and
the dispensing of charity to the
needy. Forget and forgive the
errors of the past and meet the
future with sentiments of kinship
and mutual support; approach
the New Year with pure hearts,
with malice toward none and
charity for all.
Done at the Executive Office in
the City of Santa Fe, this the
Sth day of November, in the
Year of Our Lord One Thousand
Nine Hundred and Five.
