To Keep A Good Complexion.

To keep the skin clear and fresh,
never use powders, but get all the sun.
shine and fresh air possible, don't over.
load the stomach, keepliver active. The
food one eats has much to do with this.
All acids are good. particularly sweet
cider Apples in any form should be
eaten freely. Figs and prunes are re.
markably beneficial But perhaps the
most miraculous Of all food beautifers
is raw carrot A small quantity, gra-
ted, taken before each meal, is sure to
make the complexion clear and to give
1t an enviable rosiness. Onions, cab.
bages, cauliflower, these too, ought
to form a prominent part of every
beauty menu.
The woman conscious of her nerves
must get the better of them, if she
wishes to avoid wrinkles and paleness.
She should eat oranges, plenty of nuts
and butter and pure olive oil, and drink
cocoa, if need be, three times a day.

The Splendid March Of Progress.

From all over Arizona and New Mex
leo come reports Of marked progress.
II the advertising the two territories
have obtained though the statehood
fight is not taken advantage of, it will
be their fault. Both the territories
have had more publicity in month than
they have had before in ten years.
In towns and cities new buildings are
going up, new industries are being
established, merchants are buying bet
ter goods, and more goods, and the best
Of IL is they are selling them again at
good profits Railroad extensions are
under way IN various sections Of both
territories, and in Arizona the mining
development is really marvellous, while
New MexicO's commercial interests are
expanding.
Once the tide Of immigration and out
side capital is turned this way, it can
not be kept out, even by the most sire
nous efforts Of croakers and politicians.
Cooperation must be the word, and
petty disputes must be forgotten in the
hard work Of empire building L. P.

About John Dudley.

Mrs. G. B. Breen, Of Portland, Ore
gon, No. S5, 7th street, has written a
letter to the Albuquerque Citizen,
making inquiries in regard TO Mr. John
Quigley, who was killed by man who
went by the name of Davis, about ten
years ago.
Mr.. Quigley was we'll known in Dem.
ing, and there are many Of the old res
dents here who still remember him.
He did jobbing and contracting in town
and in the mines, had accumulated
about $500 in ready money, Of which
fact Davis became aware. He told Mr..
Quigley Of a mining property or pros
pect over in Mexico, that was a sure
thing and persuaded Quigley to accom-
pany him to the location. On their
return they camped at Harper Bros.
mine in Sonora, to whom Mr.. Quigley
loaned $500, taking therefor check on
an El Paso bank.
Later they camped at Boyd's ranch,
and there, evidently while asleep, Mr.
Quigley was murdered, robbed, and Lur-
led in very shallow grave; his remains
were afterwards found, identified, and
re-buried at the same place, as his body
was so decomposed that removal to the
United States was almost impossible.
He sleeps in Sonora, about seventy. five
miles south of the boundary line; and il
can be probably said Of him as of Moses,
"No man knoweth of his sepulcher, at
the present time.
Davis went to FL Paso, and at bar
ber shop convinced Smith, barber who
has since worked for Otto Smith in this
town, that his name was John Quigley,
and who identified him as such at the
bank, where he drew the $500 on the
check before mentioned Davis then
returned to Deming, riding his own
horse and leading Quigley's, saying that
Mr' Quigley mad stopped of in the
mountains and would come on in few
days.
As Mr., Quigley did not put in an ap.
pearance, peopli began to suspect Davis,
and be left. After Mr. Quigley's body
was found, Mr. Boyd and one Of the
Harpers above referred to, came to
Deming and reported the murder. The
authorities used every effort to locate
and capture Davis, but ne had so COW
cred his tracks that no trace of him was
ever found, 1t has since been reported
that he was killed in a fight in some
mining camp; but so far as we can
learn this rumOf was never verified.

No Resignation.

Hon. H. o. Bursum, in charge of the
territorial penitentiary, Is not in a res
ignatiOn mood, just at present. He
said to a representative of the Albu-
qperque Citizen: "At present have
no intention of resigning."
Why should he resign? We who are
on the outside of the pen are satisfied
with his management, and those on the
inside, with his treatment.
Under these circumstances he ought
to be resigned" to his position.

"Ciiy Of Rocks" Is Located Near
Der IND.


The most remarkable natural curios.
ity in southern New Mexico, and per.
haps in the entiio southwest, is the
City Of Rocks, located about twenty
miles northwest Of Deming. Rising
from a ridge Of almost solid rock, and
extending over about three hundred
acres, is u great mass of lofty domes,
crags, peaks, spires and columns,
through which run many openings and
passageways, corresponding very much
to the avenues and streets Of a town.
From the main passageways hun
dreds OF little alleys, many Of them so
narrow that one is put 70 a squeeze to
pass through them, branch in all direc-
tions. These are 30 numerous, intri.
cate and winding that it is difficult
matter for one no familiar with the
CITY" to find their way through. All
of these are intefspersed with little
plazas or open courts:
The dome and towers shoot up in
many places to height of from fifty
to one hundred feet and are very pic
turesque. Most of them are more or
less fiat on tOp-caused by the material
of which they are composed being of
such a nature as TO be easily affected
by the elements Of centuries-that the
sharp points have been worn away,
which process still continues.
That the city was known to the Indi-
ans in prehistoric times is evident by
the remains recently found there by
exploreser who often visit the place.
From mass of debris covering the
bottom Of dark cavern formed by the
falling together of three great peaks,
was exhumed a number of relics and a
skeleton in agoOd state of preservation.
On bench in a great cavity followed
out Of one side Of massive rock, a
body had been laid away and enclosed
with a substantial wall composed of fiat
stones set in adobe mortar This bur.
ial place has be IN opened and the re-
mains carried off some years ago, appar-
emily but a rOrtion-sf thE wan is stnl
standing.
These streets in many instances, are
almost in perfect line. although the
view is frequently interrupted by sharp
turns and windings. These streets gem
orally trend north and south or east and
west and some of them are fifteen or
twenty feet wide, the bottom being
almost solid rock. The rocks have as
sumed many curious shapes, the most
striking one being the Leaning Tower,
Balance Rock, the Cardinals Hat, and
another something like the kneeling
camel, in appearance. At the north
west corner is massive dome called
Eagle Crag, in lGrge pocket Of which
eagles have nested for many seasons
and reared their broOds.
This wonderful city" has many at.
fractions for the visitor; he will find at
every step, something new to attract
his attention-a score Of openings,
leading in as many directions, will
invite you.

Sick Headache.

This distressing ailment results from
a dlsordered condition of the stomach.
All that is needed to effect a cure is a
dose or two Of Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets. In fact, the attack
may be warded off, or greatly lessened
in severity, by taking a dose of these
tablets as soon as the first symtom of
an attack appears. Sold by all drug

New Mexico.

The following song was written by
Perry 4. BrOcchus at Washington City
IN 1859, as tribute Of affection to New
Mexico and was respectfully inscribed

governor and delegate to Congress at
that date. It appeared in the Santa Fe
New Mexican in 1867, has survived
seventeen admissions of the territory
into the Union by the lower house of

Train strikes section Man.

STELLA, Neb., Oct. 11.-(Special)-
While the section men were at work a
few, miles west OF town this morning.
they saw an extra freight coming towards
them and the men ran the hand-car down
the. track to level place to get il off,
leaving the foreman, John Morgan, at the
place they were working. In some way
he failed to get far enough away from
the track and, II is presumed, the engine
pilot or q loose car door struck him, as
when the men went back to work they
found him lying on the right-of-way un-
conscious and one arm and shoulder dis.
located. He was brought to town for
medical aid and it was some hours before
he became conscious and then was unable
20 recall when or how he had been hurt.
