CLARK TO HAVE
RE-HEARING
At Estancia on February 2Sth Before Judge
Mann

Judge Edward A. Mann of the Sixth
judicial district court at Alamogordo, has
granted re.hearing of the habeas corpus
proceedings brought by the attorneys of
slap" Clark who shot and killed James
Chase, an ex-deputy sheriff of Torrance
county. The hearing is set for February
25th at Estancia. Clark may yet secure
bond. Attorneys A. B. Renehan and Mark
B. Thompson who are representing Clark
said that they expected to introduce ad-
ditional evitence at the re-hearing which
was granted for thatpurpose. Clark will
remain in the county Jail in Santa Fe, pro-
vdlng the structure dose not fall down,
and will then be placed in the territorial
penitentiary for safe keeping. There is
at least no danger of the pententiary col
lapsing before the date of the trial.

ECLIPSE OF MOON
Was Beautiful Sight at Midnight Last Night

The lunar eclipse last night was in some
respects remarkable and of interest not
only to astronomers. but the general pub
lie as we'll. Two hours is about as long
as the moon can be hidden by the earth S
shadow and the satellite was totally ecips-
ed for one hour and thirty-eght minutes
An especially favorable opportunity to
witness the always interesting phenome-
non of the lunar ohscuration was present
ed here and the entire western and central
states.
The moon entered the penumbra at
o:45 p. m, western time, February s, en-
tering the shadow at 1857 p. m. The
total eclipse began at fifty-eight minutes
past eleven. The middle eclipse was reach
ed at I2:47 a M, and the total eclipse
ended at 1886 a. m. The moon left the Sha-
dow at 2:37 a. m, and left the penumbra
con the other side" at 3:4o a. m.
Thus the total eclipse lasted an hour and
thirty-eight minutes and the entire phe-
nomenon, from the time the moon entered
the penumbra until it left was three hours
and forty.six minutes, the duration being
one of the remarkable features of the case.

And Nothing to His Alleged Confession.

Charles Bell, alias Frank Lee, self con-
fessed murderer of Colonel J. Francisco
Chavez, at Pinos Wells, November "a,
1904, is suffering from acute alcoholism
and is undoubtedly insane as a result
thereof. Deputy u. S. Marshall Fred
erick Fornoff, made the above statement
shortly after his arrival here this after
noon. He has been in Prescott for several
days investigating the case.
Despite the fact of Bells condition the
deputy made arrangements to have him
held for further investigation in order that
there might be no doubtin regard to the
matter. Deputy Fornoff went at once to
Governor Hagerman's apartments at the
Palace Hotel where he made brief report
of his investigation. Later he visited
Governor Hagerman in the capitol build
ing and submitted a detailed statement of
the case.-New Mexico.

CHA KING;

While Robert s. Ingersoll is not often quoted in a Home Circle Department, and his tea chings were harmful to the home ] yet he said some of the most beautiful things ever spoken and said them the best. lie was on one occasion asked to give two views in a symposium of women and in reply said: Tt takes a hundred men to make an encamp- ment, but one woman can make a home. 1 Tot only admire women as the most beauti ful object ever created. but I reyer- ence her as the redeemed glory of humanity, the sanctuary of all virtues, the pledge of all perfect qualities of heart and hand. It Is because women are so much better than men that their faults are considered greater. The one thing in this world that is con- stant, the only peak that rises above all the clouds, the one window in which the light burns for ever, the one star that dark ness cannot quench, is woman's love. It rises to the gaeatest heights, it sinks to the lowest depths, it forgives the most cruel injuries. A woman's love is the perfume of the heart. This is the real love that subdues the earth; the love that has wrought all miracles of art; that gives us music all the way from the cradle song to the grand closing smphony that bears the soul away on wings of fire. A love that is greater than power, sweeter than life and stronger than death"

His mind then wandered far away to the time when he should die his royal editorial soul go shouting to the sky; when he'd roam the fields of Paradise and sail over Jasper seas and all thing S glorious would combine his every sense to please. He thougth then how he'd look a cross the great gulf dark and drear, that yawn between his happy soul and those who swindled here, and when for water they'd call and in agony they'd caper, he would shout to them Just quench your thirst, with the due, that on your aper.-Ex.

The South certainly has every reason to rejoice at prevailing conditions and it is pleasing to record that it is enjoying it's full share of the prevailing prosperity. In fact, there are good reasons for believing that the South is destined to become the richest section of the country Give free rein to your imagina- tion and let 1t picture the future of section which has onehalf of tic iron ore of the United States. nearly three times as much coal as Great Britain, Germany and Pennsylvania combined, which holds world monopoly cotton production and is rapidly becom- igg a great cotton manufacturing center, which dominates the phosphate rock and sulphur trade of the world, which has much ofthe richest oil territory known, which has one-half of the
