on the completion of the reservoir for

ing failures themselves cannot res
train their natural dispositions. Envy
and 1itt1eness obscure and limit their
vision. Splashing in the gutter and
croaking are their only accomplish
The Hondo reservoir will be com
pleted-in fact the main part of the
project is already accomplished, and
the work of building distributing ca
mails and finishing details is being
pushed right ahead under the super
'intendency Of our fellow townsman
w. NJ. Reed, a competent engineer
who is as much interested in the sue
cess of the enterprise as any Rost
well man possibly could be,-the man
who as a matter of fact was perhaps
more instrumental than IN other
one person, or dozen persons, in SCI
curing favorable action by the gov
eminent in the matter of undertake
ing the project. Until Engineer
Reed becomes discouraged there is
no reason for person in the Pei
bcos Valley to fear for a moment, that
the Hondo1 reservoiriwf viii not be push
ed to completion. The idea that the
government will run u of money
before completing the reservoir is
too absurd for serious comment. q
There have been, delays, owing to
the failure Of the contractors who
undertook the Hondo and other con-
tracts more than they had the CAPT.
Idl W ndHule, DuI the government OF
the United States is behind the work
now, as it has been ever since, it
started. and under the management
of a home engineer who understands
his business and whose reputation is
wrapped UP in the success of the
enterprise, all Roswell has reason to
rejoice in the prospects looming
above the horizon. IDS ~ aautf017 Z

publish the names, of men who are

FEELING RUNS HIGH.

Des Moines, July 3O.-The republi-

morning to arrange the preliminaries
for the state convention which will be
held here Wednesday.
About 200 seats are contested.
The control of the temporary or
gahization of the convention will dis
pend upon the action of the state
committee regarding these contests.
Governor Cummins who is candi-
GATE for nomination. claims to have
majority of the delegates.
The adherents of Geo. d. Perkins
who is also candidate for governor
maintain that there were irregulari-
Ties IN quite number of county con-
Fentlons and have contested and pro-
tested the delegations selected by the
majority in such convention.
It is asserted by the friends Of Per-
klns that they will control the pre-
llmlnary organization. Friends of
Governor Cummins insist that they
nave a majority and intend, it is said
TO assert their rights and to take
charge of the convention themselves.
The feeling on both sides is very bit

Private Detectives on the
Stand Today.
HOW LETTERS WERE TAKEN
DETECTIVE TELLS HOW HE AND
. ANOTHER WORKER TOOK THE
SENSATIONAL LETTERS FROM
A TRUNK IN MADINE's ROOM
MADE MRS. HARTJE UNEASY.

Pittsburg, July 30.-The presence Of
several private detectives in the
courtroom gave rise to the report that
the plaintiff in the Hartje divorce case
would attempt to prove where he OBJ
tanned the famous love-letters to
Coaehman Nadine, the correspondent.
The surmise was correct as the first
witness called was John d. staubb.
an operator for a private detective
agency. The witness testified that he
mad visited Madness room twice and
with John A. Anderson, another detec-
tive, had broken open Madness trunk
and removed the letters He identi-
ned the court exhibits as the missiyes
taken. During Staubb's testimony
Mrs. Hartje appeared uneasy and then
angry While her husbands manner was
apparently one of cool indifference.
Nadine came into court while the
witness was still on the stand and
after listening intently to the testf-
mony for time, hurriedly left the
courtroom.

Army's Health Improved.

Washington. July SO.-The annual
report of the surgeon general of the
United States army for the year 1905,
covered by statistics just available,
will make such a showing as is most
gratifying to army medical officers
There has been nothing like it in near
ly ten years, and the gratifying con-
dltlon is attributable to the improve
ment in sanitary conditions. This is
especially so in the treatment of epi-
denies, particularly typhoid, with
which the army was seriously threat
ened some years ago. All kinds of
devices have been adopted, after thor
ough trial in the hope that there
would be a decided improvement in
the conditions prevailing at army
posts, The same precautions for the
health OF the troops have been taken
In the field, on marches and on army
transports. The army medical corps
is some thirty officers short of its
authorized commissioned personnel
but it is found possible to maintain
the health of the army in a way which
has not been equalIed since the rec
ord breaking year of 1897 The sta
tlstlcs, when available, will show q re-
markable state of affairs, entirely
creditable to the surgeons who have
been working so hard all along for
better military hygiene.

Warsaw, July 30.-While the church
of Wilanow q suburb of Warsaw was
filled with worshippers today, an un-
known person outside began firing
rapidly with a revolver. A panic fol-
lowed. The church service was broken
up and the congregation in wild
effort to escape, crowded on board a
ferry boat which sank, drowning five
persons.

Newburg, N. Y, July 3O.-Two
wrecking crews are at work today
clearing away the debris of the wreck
of the New York CentraPs Pacific ex-
press, which ran into a landslide one
miles south of Hamburgs at 1880 last
night resulting in the death of Ed
ward Wells, an engineer, of Albany,
and Edward Warren, a fireman of New
York, and injured about a dozen pas
sengers, none of whom are fatally
hurt
There are three tracks at the point
where the accident occurred and they
were all torn up or badly twisted for
100 feet or more
The wreck was the worst that has
occurred on the Hudson river division
since the New York tunnel disaster
1t seems miraculous that there were
no casualties or seriously injured among
the passengers, especially with regard
to the twenty or more men who were
in the combination smoking and bag
gage car, which, when the locomotive
turned over after plowing for forty
feet into the great heap of gravel
which had fallen down upon the track,
shot upward and then, turning almost
at right angles, came down with a
crash across all three tracks.

Fifteen Pleasure Seekers We're
Drowned by New Jersey Coast

Angelsea, N. j., July 80. - Two
yachts coming in from the fishing
banks capsized on Hereford Inlet ban
off here Sunday and fifteen persons
lost their lives. There were thirty
two persons on one yacht, of whom
fourteen We're lost. and twelve on the
other of whom all but one were saved,
1hat not more fell victims to the
fough sea was due to the heroism of

All the lost came from this vicinity.
Angelsea is one of the favorite fish
ing resorts on the southern New Jer-
sey shore and had the usual Sunday
business.
Inc weather in the morning was
ideal and all fishing boats took out
large crowds to the fishing banks in
the afternoon, however, a brisk breeze
sprang UP and the captains of the
small craft h0isted sail and started
for home. Most of the fleet got in
without mishap although some of
them had considerable difficulty clear

got into trouble We're the sloop yacht
Nora, which had on board Capt. Her
bert Shivers, his mate and thirty pas
sengers and the sloop Alvin b, with a
party Of twelve. The Nora had gone
to Five Fathom bank, about ten mnles
out to sea early in the day. When
the wind began to freshen, Captain
Shfvers decided it was time to make
port and with the assistance Of
small gasoline engine and a good
spread Of canvass he made good time
toward Angelsea. Captain Slivers
knew how treacherons is the Hereford
bar and approached it with caution.
The sand obstruction is about mile
from shore. just as he was about
TO go over it, a heavy squalI struck
the Nora. Despite the efforts of the
captain, the craft healed over and was
hit BY huge wave. The wind and

Forfeit IRaiIroad Charter.

Cumberland, Md, July 80. The
hearing of the case of the state of
Maryland against the Cumberland &
Pennsylvania Railroad Co., for the for
feiture of its charter, was begun in
the circuit court for this county to-
day, on an order commanding the
railroad company to show cause why
a decree of forfeiture should not be
issued by the courts as set forth in
the petition. The reason for the pro-
ceeding against the railroad company
is the alleged violation of the state
laws against rate discrimination.
