HIGHWAYMAN MAY
WEAR DIAMONDS


New York, Feb. 18.-One of the
most audacious of the many robberies
in this city occurred in Bronx today
when highwaymen attacked Mr.. and
Mrs John w. Cornish in front of their
home. snatched a $4,000 diamond
brooch from Mrs. Cornish's throat,
fired I IA bullets through the clothing
of CornA2 when he demonstrated and
then escaped after an exciting race
with a policeman in which several
shots were exchanged. The police
have only weager description and
there is little chance for the capture
Of the man. The robber had followed
the couple home from street car
where the lavish display Of the dia-
monds worn by the couple attracted
much attention.

CHARLES /. BALLARD
THE TYPE of MAN
WHO DOES THINGS

Hon. Charles L. Ballard, member of
the Council from the Ninth District,
| is in the full vigor of young manhood,
Iaaying been born in Hayes County,
Texas, on the 18th day of February,
1866. While he was still boy his par
ents, Allen J. and Katherine Ballard,
moved with their family from Texas
to Fort Sumner, New Mexico. and this
Territory has been his home for al
most twenty-seven years. He has re-
sided in Lincoln County and in what is
now Chaves County since 1880.
In his boyhood and youth Mr.. Bal
lard attended the public schools and
also an excellent school at Anton
Chico; and there was laid the foun-
dation for that broad and practical
knowledge of affairs which the man
with mind ever active and alert de-
rives from actual contact with the
world in business and social relations.
Ever since he was old enough to
engage in business for himself Mr..
Ballard has been interested in the cat
tie industry. For a number of years
he had charge of the late Captain
Joseph G. Lea's cattle. He has
achieved success in his business en-
terprises and is now president of the
Ballard Land and Cattle Company,
whose range is near Roswell.
Mr.. Ballard is a man of family. His
wife was Miss Mintie Corn. They were
married in Roswell on the 18th day
of February, 1883, when young Ballard
was twenty-five years old, and they
now have six children-three boys
and three girls-a fact which would
doubtless prove strong recommends
ton to his friend, President Roosevelt.
For SO young man the subject OF
this sketch has had wide and varied
experience. Eight or ten years ago he
was city marshal of Roswell. During
a long period he served as a deputy
sheriff in times when 1t required a
man of nerve and courage to discharge
the duties of that Office. He has been
a cattle inspector for several years
and during the past two years he has
been a member of the Territorial Cat
tie Sanitary Board. In every one OF
these Offices he has been faithful, en-
ergetic and attentive to business, and
has met with the merited approval of
that class of citizens whose regard Is
worth having.
Mr.. Ballard has not only served his
country we'll in civil capacities, but,

WATSON DID NOT
KILL HIS WIFE

New London, Missouri, Feb. 1S.-
The jury in the case Of DR.. T. Jones
Watson of Denver, charged with kill,
ing his wife, today returned verdict
of mot guilty"
Mrs. Watson was killed in runaway
accident while riding with her husband
who was picked up unconscious near
a bridge over small stream. The
charged that Mrs. Watson
had been poisoned and that the condi-
ton under which the body was found
had been arranged by Watson to bear
out the runaway theory. Much expert
medical testimony was introduced dur
Ing the trial. Some medical men tes-
titled that they found traces OF poison
and others that there were no traces.

IRISH BARON A
PRIVATE SOLDIER

New York, Feb. 18.-Arthur Regi-
maid French, the eldest son and heir
to title and estates of Baron de Frey
ne of Ireland. who arrived here Janu-
ary 16 and was reported yesterday as
having mysteriously disappeared from
his hotel is at Fort Slocum wearing the
uniform of United States private in
the army. French came to America
to visit his uncle, Captain William
French, who owns ranch in New
Mexico. Having telegraphed his rela-
tive and received no reply. the young
man enlisted. He said he did not re-
gret his action and intended to con-
tinue in the service as he liked it.
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1905-02-18

when the call was made for volunteers
to enlist for the war with Spain, he
was found ready to offer his life, II
need be, in defense of the honor of his
country and for the relief of the op.
pressed and prosecuted Cubans who
had long been ground under the iron
heel of Spanish tyranny. He served
as lieutenant of the First Volunteer
Cavalry Trough Riders) and there be-
came acquainted with Colonel, now
President Roosevelt. After he was
mustered out of that service he was
appointed lieutenant In the Eleventh
Cavalry Volunteers and sent to the
Philippines, where he remained more
than one year.
Mr.. Ballard is Democrat in politics.
When the Democrats of his district
were looking around for the right kind
of a man to name as their candidate
for the Council in the Thirty-sixth
Legislative Assembly, Charley Ballard
loomed up large on the political hori-
zon, because he was popular man
and because his past record deserved
recognition by his party. Hence he
was nominated and entered the con-
test, if such it could properly be called.
For, although Judge Fall, the Republi-
can Councilman from that district in
the Thirty-fifth Legislative Assembly,
had been elected by fair majority,
which had to be overcome, when the
ballots were counted after the recent
election they disclosed the fact that
Mr.. Ballard had won by majority OF
about thirteen hundred votes, being
the largest majority ever received by
a candidate for that Office In the Ninth
even then the major.
tiles the Democrats used to get few
years ago when that district was al
most solidly Democratic.
I'd While Mr.. Ballard is Democrat, as
we have said, he realizes that Repub-
lican votes helped to elect him, and In
his career as legislator he will exhib.
1t those excellent qualities Of common
sense and sound judgment which have
characterized his past record, and will
vote and work for only such meas.
ures as in his opinion will tend to fur
ther the best interests of the entire
people whom he represents. regardless
Of party affiliations.
Mr.. Ballard enjoys the distinction of
being the only Democrat in the present
Council.
