100 YOUNG IN
DIANS EMPLOYED
In Rocky Ford Sugar Beet Fields
seventy.one from Training School
Here.

Seventy-one Indian boys and young
men who have been pupils at the
United States Indian Training School
in this city during the past school
term, left Saturday evening for Rocky
Ford, Colorado, 10 work during their
vacation in the sugar beet fields in the
vicinity of that town. Superintendent
Crandall states that these boys and
young men benayed themselves very
well while at the school and he ex-
poets good reports from them. He be-
lieves they will save most of their
wages and thas each one will come
back to the schooi with a surplus
earned during the vacation.
No official was placed over
the boys, Superintendent Gran
dali believing that they know enough
and were sufficiently self reliant to
take care of themselves on the trip
from here to Rocky Ford. They were
divided into detachments of ten each,
under a leader, and all under one gen.
eral foreman. This organization will
continue during their absence from the
school.
superintendent Crandall found quite
a number of them fitted for the posi-
tion of detachment foreman and of
general foreman, and it is believed
that the boys will be we'll satisfied and
OBEY their foremen, knowing they
were set over them for their own
good.
With the detachment from the
United States Indian Training School
went party OF fifteen boys from st.
Catholic Indian School in
this city. They will keep together
with the detachment from the United
States Indian Training School
A half-dozen boys from surrounding
pueblos swelled the party at Lamy,
nearly 100 young Indians in all
who went to Rocky Ford. At that
place they will be met by Ralph P.
Collins, former superintendent Of the
United States Indian School at Albu-
querque, who will have general charge
of the Indians at work in the Rocky
Ford sugar beet fields.

POPE Plus X
SERIOUSLY ILL
Physicians in Con-
slant Attendance
at Vatican.
ANGINA PEcTOR|s FEARED
Overwork and Close, Con.
finement Impair His Holi-
ness Health.

Rome, May 21.-Physlcians In at
tendance at the Vatican are reported to
be greatly worried over the condition
of the Pope since he was stricken with
heart disease, last Saturday, and des-
pite their statements that his condition
is not serious, the report that he Is
seriously III is fast gaining ground.
Dr.. Lapponio has ordered complete
rest for the Pope and all engagements
made at the Vatican have been can
celled.
Dr.. Lappori has spent the last two
nights at the Vatican in constant read
mess for a call from the sick room.
There Is no doubt but that the con.
dltion of the Pope is more serious than
officials will admit. During the few
years that his holiness has been con.
fined to the Vatican the natural weak.
ness of his heart, which has more or
less troubled him for years, has grown
steadily worse.
Overwork, close confinement and
lack of exercise have undermined the
pontiff's health. He has had several
Of heart failure, but the pres
ent one is the most serious of all.
The Pope has been Ill since Thurs.
day, but his sickness was first dag
nosed as gout, which has been more or
less common with him for some time
Yesterday morning, however, he was
again by the old heart weak
ness and practically collapsed. 1t was
at first thought that the attack was
no more serious than the former ones.
His holiness, however, failed to rally
as quickly as DR.. Lapponi expected.
In fact he grew weaker and In view of
the nature Of the attack, alarming
fears were aroused among the Vatican
officials
The two aged sisters Of the pontiff,
on hearing of their brothers Illness,
fastened to the Vatican and insisted
on being allowed to nurse the patient.
They are at present in charge of the
sick room.
The greatest fear of members of the
Pope's family, as well as the church
officials, Is that his old heart trouble
may turn into angina pectoris. ..

CITIZENS SPEND
DAY IN PRAYER
Spirit of ThankfuIness Pervades San
Francisco--Sunday Passed In
Devotion.

San Francisco, May 21-Although
nearly all of the refugees of this city
are being taken care of by friends, and
large percentage have resumed
work, and can secure their own sup.
plies, still many depend entirely upon
the bread line. Yesterday was a day
of prayer and rejoicing. The 1nhabi
tants of the city are regaining their
normal mental attitudes, and those
who lost all earthly possessions gave
thanks at saving their lives, while
those who saved any property out of
the wreck feel grateful.
Apparently everybody felt the infu-
ence of the flood of sunshine and cloud
less sky, and remembered as some hal
not remembered for a long time, that
this was the day of the week set apart
for the praise of God. So toward the
middle of the forenoon all the roads
in San Francisco seemed to lead to
the altars that still stand.
Nor were these the only affairs be-
fore which the great throngs Of wor-
shippers knelt to pour out their hearts
In gratitude and supplication, for some
times the priest or clergyman spoke
his message of hope and comfort from
the steps of the church which stood.
If 1T stood at all, In ruin; sometimes
the hymns were sung or the prayers
murmured in parsonage parlors.
The afternoon passed quietly In WIS.,
its from tent to tent, from shack to
shack, with migrations to the lawns
around the shattered music stand in
Golden Gate Park, where there was
concert by military band. 1t was
noticeable, however, that far the
larger number of those who gathered
to listen were men, and this seems to
be the case at every gathering of
amusement seekers In these disordered
times, for the women cannot forget
that they have lost their ribbons and
their furbelows, that their shoes are
cracked and dusty, that their hats are
wllted caricatures and their bodices
torn and stained.

THREE KILLED IN
DRUNKEN QUARREL
Dead Bodies of TWO Brothers and
Their Intimate Friend Found Ly-
ing In Pools OF Own Blood.

Mayfield, KY, May 21.-Mark Will
son, the proprietor of warehouse
here, his brother, West Wilson, and
their intimate friend Arthur West
were all killed in a drunken row which
took place at Lynville this county yes.
terday. Visitors to the warehouse
yesterday found the three bodies all
lying In pools Of blood, and revolvers
lying near showed how death was
reached. Two citizens stated that they
had been at the warehouse shortly be-
fore the bodies were found, and though
all three men were drinking they were
evidently in the best of spirits The
supposition is that West Wilson and
Arthur West engaged in shooting af-
fray and Mark Wilson was killed by
a flying bullet.

SETTLERS IN vi
CINITY OF MORIARTY
Fifteen Homestead Entries Made
There Last Week--Risht Kind Of
immigrants.

C. r. Ratliffe, president of the Rat
life Investment Company at Wichita,
Kansas, spent Friday and Saturday of
last week in this city Mr.. Ratliffe,
has resided in Wichita, Kansas, for II
years, ten years of which he has prac-
ticed law there. He became interested
in New Mexico colonization projects
about two months ago. He examined
the situation carefully and then turned
his attention to bringing immigrants
TO settle in the Estancia Valley. That
he has been successful in a measure Is
clearly proven by the number OF peo-
pie who have been induced to come
to the Estancia Valley and make home
stead entries there. Mr.. Ratliffe spent
the past week in this section and be-
tween this city and Estancia. He came
with "a party of homeseekers. Nine.
teen were with him on this trip and
fifteen Of this number were so favor
ably impressed that they have made
homestead entries in the vicinity Of
Moriarty, fifty-five miles south of here
on the Santa Fe Central Railway.
These people are of a superior class
They are nearly all farmers, who have
sold valuable farms they owned in
their old homes and intend to come to
New Mexico in order to take the bene.
fit of the homestead laws and to grow
up with the country. The fifteen who
have made entries it is expected, will
return shortly, bringing live stock,
farming implements, furniture, etc.,
with them and will then commence the
erection of houses upon the claims they
have entered.
All in ALL since Mr.. Ratliffe has COM
menced colonization work in the Es-
tancia Valley, he has been instrument
cal in bringing many settlers there
and expects to do still better in the
future, as those who go back now tell
their neighbors and friends of the
great chances ready and open for the
right kind of men in the Sunshine
Territory. Mr.. Ratliffe is now devot-
ing his entire time to this subject and
thinks that he will again be in Santa
Fe with another colony in about three
weeks, namely, about the fifth of June.
Among the people who have come here
on his advice and suggestion are sew
eral young men and women who want
to start in as land owners. Several
people who have settled In the Pecos
Valley two and three years ago and
who now have good farms there, have
been in the Estancia Valley at his sug-
gestion recently. They made compari-
sons of conditions and of lands and as.
sert that there are much better chan
ces in the Estancia Valley today for
poer man bhan there were when they
settled in the Pecos Valley and, that
bhe settlers now coming into the Es.
rancia Valley have better opportunity
TO become independent and well to do
land owners than they had when they
first went to the Pecos Valley.
At Willard progress is being made
steadily on the drilling of an artesian
well and good results are expected
shortly.
Mr.. Ratliffe expresses great faith In
the future development and progress
of the Estancia Valley.

Treaty Between
United States and
Mexico Signed.
ENDS YEARS OF FRICTION
Opposition to Agreement Ex-
pected From Senators Of
Western States.

Washington, May 21.-Secretary
Root for the United States, and Am
bassador Casasus, for the Mexican gov
ernment today signed a treaty regu'
lating the use of the waters OF the
Rio Grande which II approved by the
Senate will remove what has been for
twenty years the source of friction in
the relations between thu Two coun-
tries. For almost cen Iu1y Mexi-
cans living along the lower liver have
made large use of its waters for irri-
cation purposes, but in re,A.nt years
private companies on the upper waters
in the United States havs by con
struction of wing dams, diverted a
large part of the water to tDis side of
the river The Mexicans preferred
many claims for damage sustained
but SO far without success. Now the
plans Of the reclamation ccrvice have
made it certain that practically all the
water will be retained or American
soil, unless some proper scheme of d.
vision can be arranged. The construc-
tion of a $7,O00,O00 dam across the Rio
Grande at Engle, New Mesrc, brought
the matter TO climax AM led to me-
gotiations between the twD countries
which eliminated in the rraaty signed
today. Underlying the ,',nciple of
the convention is the recognition of
the common law rights )f the Mexi-
cans to the Use of a fair share OF the
waters of the Rio Grande River, but
as the United States gorAlnment is
put to the entire expense Of building
the great dam and Its a9Ials, the
Mexlcans share is only & fractional
proportion of the whole fow. 1t is
estimated that the impou:ted waters
will suffice TO irrigate about 100000
acres of otherwise arid leais and 1t is
stipulated that of this a total of co.
600 feet of water which is to make
arabic about 25,000 acres ri land will
be delivered ON the Mexican side each
year. For it's part, the NJ ,yican gov
ernment guarantees the United States
government against any nit for liza
bility on account Of the rliims of in
dividual Mexicans who ha' so far
suffered through the divers on of the
water. Opposition to tbs treaty Is
expected on the part Of some western
Senators who express the belief that
either the United States is entitled to
all tine water without compensation in
view Of the constructing the irrigation
dams and canals or that il the Mexi-
can right is to be recognized at all its
title should be purchased outright by
cash payment.
The wafer is to be delivered at the
place where the headgate of the Ciu.
dad Jemez canal is located. This
water is to be delivered as follows:
