LADY OF THE LAKE
Familiar Characters Step Out Of
Scott's NoVel-Dances as Lively
as II on the Native Heather.
Scotch Music Too

'Tis not every bonnie lasse that can be
a addie as well, but a question of sex
matters not at all to the pretty girls
of the Westlake school,
They proved 1t last night when they
donned the garb of the sturdy High
lander and helped to make a perform
ance of Lady of the Lake" at the
Doblnson auditorium splendid sue
cess.
From some of the best families in
Los Angeles they came, their friends
beheld and they conquered.
Imagine a dainty little miss not day
over sweet sixteen as the rollicking
outlaw chieftain, Roderick Dhu of the
McAlplne clan. Dorothy Parkinson
was such one and from the depths
of heaven knows where she unearthed
voice that would have made even a
brave man tremble.
Then there was Gladys Wilson as
James Fitz James, fat and fair, dis
gulsed as hunter in a suit of Lincoln
green. These two maids could find no
limit to their abilities. They even
fought a duel and poor Roderick went
down to his death like valiant chief
tain should.
Fair on the Stage
What a pity that Scott's Lewis could
not have stepped out of the beautiful
poem anu Seell HlHlSell dS l@liuo II olu

Lewis was. indeed, good to look upon

cloak were not i'll becoming.

OF course there were girlish girls in
she cast also, and they proved beyond
a doubt that they have histrionic tall
ent. Ruth Hutchinson who assumed the
role of Blanche of Devon, the crazy
lowland maid slain accidentally by
Murdock. was truly dramatic in the
death scene. Marjorie Hibbs made a
satisfactory Ellen.
The tuneful Scotch music, including
all the dear old familiar airs. added
much TO the evenings performance

danced as If they had been learned on
the native heather.

COW AND PUMP MAY BE CALLED
AS WITNESSES IN MILK CASE

very fine COW. The "bossy" was one
Of the gentle kind that Mother Goose"
used to tell about, and she gave very
fine milk.
The surplus was sold to the neigh
bors, and Peterson was a regular Gus
toner. But Bossy, the COW, became In
III repute because she often drank
water and so Monday evening the
trouble began when the Peterson boy
did not call for the milk.
The next morning Mrs. Turner ex-
amined the bowl in which the milk had
remained overnight and noticed that
the cream had gathered close to the
edges.
She poured the milk into another YES
sci and washed out the bowl. While
she went to get the milk she left the
bowl standing beneath the spout and,
as often occurs, water in the pump
dripped into the bowl.
Later Mrs. Turner poured the milk
back into the bowl and it mixed pro-
miscuously with the water The Peder-
son boy noticed the water in the bowl
and told his father
Los Angeles herald., 1906-06-13
Discovers DsadIy Water

Peterson, according to the statements
of the neighbors, made a minute exam-
nation of the milk and discovered two
drops Of water on the right hand side In
the corner.
He then turned the milk over and dis
covered three drops on the other side.
The fluid was then brought to Los
Angeles. where the city chemist took
squint or two at II through a costly
telescope. A stethescope was then called
into practice and the milk's tempera-
ture and heart conditions taken. Then
a portion of the creamy fluid was am
putated and an autopsy was performed
and the water discovered.
The warrant was issued and Deputy
Jack Adams brought Mrs. Turner to
Los Angeles. where Justice Young re-
leased her on her own recognizance.
Now the courts will have to determine
whether those>five drops Of water came
from the pump or whether the COW had
water on the brain.

BOX CAR ROBBED AND ALA
MOGORDO MERCHANT LOSES

A special from Alamogordo says W.
+. Dudley%of the mounted police, came
in from up the road with car of freight
that had been robbed Of about $500 worth
of merchandise at some point on the Rock
Island, supposedly between Santa Rosa
and Delhart. 1t was fonnd out a, Santa
Rosa that the car had been robbed and on
checking the contents over it was discov-
cred that in the neighborhood of the
above amount was missing. The car was
billed for Alamogordo and nearly every
merchant in town is short on goods.
Mr.. Dudley has been up the road for a
week prospecting for box Car thieves and
their plunder He succeeded in digging
up thirty pairs of shoes that had been bur
led for safe keeping by robbers, but no
arrests have been made since the three
that we're landed in Jail a couple Of weeks
ago. 1t seems that the entire gang was
not captured or they have some very ac-
tive successors in this line.

SKELETON OF GIANT IN
SAN ANDRES MOUNTAIN

Nj. ID. Gaylord the well known mining
man, is in town with a story of the loca-
ton of some ancient Spanish workings in
the San Andres mountains, and the dis
covery of a skeleton of man in one OF
them, says the FL Paso Herald. He has
photographs of the mines, showing all
that he claims
Mr.. Gaylord and associates discovered
these claims in Ash canyon in the San An
dreas, and have been blasting out the
openings He declareg that the former
operators sealed the openings up, after
working them. by mixing pulverizcd lime
rock and plastering it over the openings.
in the form of cement. 1t is impossible to
locate the openings, he declares, ex-
cept from the smoked appearance of the
walls of the canyon above. In this man
ner he and his associates have located sew
eral and every time blast was applied it
opened an ancient mine. In one OF them,
it had been stopped out for height of 800
feet and in some OF them the ancient mines
had been tunneled for over 100 feet.
The canyon walls are from 1000 to g.,
600 feet high, he says, and in many instan-
ces the openings are located one above the
other. Ore found on the ground outside
the workings assays from II to rs ounces
in silver, with two ounces in gold. None
of the leads have been reached in any oi
the mines, as the former operators seem to
have filled them up with earth and this
will have to be dug out before the leads
can be reached.
Mr.. Gaylord says tools we're not used to
work these mines, but the ore was taken
out by the fire and water" process,
The skeleton found in one of the mines
was back about 80 feet from the entrance,
and was, it is believed, the remains OF a
miner who was sealed up in the workings
unknown to his associates. The bones
show that he was very large man. Most
of the bones crumbled when the air struck
them. FL Paso News.

Wolves Troublesome.

Reports from Socorro county are to the
effect that stock men and sheep raisers are
experiencing great deal OF trouble with
lobos. of which there is at present great
number in that vicinity.
They run in packs, and on several occa-
sions horses have been found which had
been pulled down and killed by the wolves
on the range. Stockmen in that vicinity
are taking action against these animals in
an effort to exterminate them as nearly as
possible by both poisoning and shooting
them whenever an opportunity presents it
self One rancher set poison about his
ranch one night and the next morning
found he had killed three lobos and thirty
seven coyotes.

RAILROADS MAY BEGIN
VSEOF CONCRETE TIES.

H. T.. Percival of Houston Texas, in
ventor of an improved concrete tie, is now
in Chicago exhibiting the product before a
convention of railroad engineers, and as
result of the inquiry that is now being
made, it is regarded as probable that the
Houston brand of concrete ties may be
given a trial on several of the leading trunk
lines of the east.
Texas railroads have tried the percival
invention in limited way, and it is said
that so far as the experiment has extended
the results have been entirely satisfactory
II concrete ties could he adopted by the
railroads, it would do away with a time
honored and somewhat picturesque indus
try-the chopping of timber for ties
A railroad tie camp is an institution
well known to all of the timber regions of
the United States, and many men from an
humble beginning, have grown rich as tie
contractors. AS the years go by, tie tim
Der naturally becomes more scarce, but
timber experts say it will he a long time
yet before the wooden tie goes out of use,
even though the concrete idea proves to be
all that its promoters claim for it.

SHEEP TAXED IN COUNTY
WHERE OWNER RESIDES.

District Attorney Clancy has addressed
10 County Assessor Albright the following
letter, which explains itself;
March II, 1000
MIR. George +. Albright, Assessor of Ber-
nalillo County, Albuquerque, New Mex-
leo.
Dear Sir have been asked by per-
sons interested in the assessment and tax
alton of sheep, to advise on as to the con-
dition of the law with regard to the county
in which such property must be assessed,
and therefore write you this letter, so that
you may avoid any mistakes on this sub
ject.
The general rule of law is that personal
property is 10 be assessed where the owner
resides and in New Mexico this rule is
also set out in the statutes. Section lo27
of the Compiled Laws declares all per-
sonal property shall be listed and taxed in
the county where the owner resides, on the
| first day of March of the current year.
| This statute was part OF the revenue law
of 1882, and remained unchanged and un-
modified until 1909. In that year, by sec
tion 81, of chapter ~, of the laws of 1900,
it was provided that all sheep owned by
residents OF he territory should be listed
and assessed in the county wherein the
owners reside Thus far this had no eff
feet upon the previous statute, but this
section went on to provide for the assess
ment of sheep in the counties where they
are grazing, unless the owner should pro-
duCe n certificate from the assessor OF his
own county showing that the sheep had
been actually assessed in tina, county. The
object of this statute was to prevent sheer
owners from escaping taxation on theil
sheep by not returning to their home coun
ties the full number which they might own
BY chapter 100, of the Laws of 1905
section 81 of chapter ~ of the Laws 9
1900 was repealed and nothing enacted il
its place. The effect of this repeal is only
to wipe out all provisions for the as
sessment of sheep in the counties where
they grace if other than the counties wher,
their owners live, and leaves the law a
announced in section 4oa7 of the Compiled
Laws in full force.
Under these circumstances | have to ad
wise you that all sheep should De listed ant
taxed in the county where the owners re
side, and not elsewhere.
Yours truly,
FRANK w. CLANCY,
} District Attorney.
