chorus Girl for Jimmy Britt.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 2S.-Pretty Ne
va Aylmar, leading chorus lady with
Ned Walburn's "Raindears." and the
~betrothed wife of James Edward
arrived in Denver today to begin a
weeks engagement at the Orpheum
this evening. The story of Neva's en-
gagement to the next victim of the
S~enegambian lightweight champion
is not a press agents pipe dream. 1t
comes straight from h rosebud lips
of little Neva herself.

ton of a report that she was engaged
to Young Corbett. Delver's famous

that they are the best of friends, of
course, but she has lavished all the
wealth of her young affections upon
James Edward. That is the present
status of the love affairs of Miss Neva
Alymar, according to the latest autho-
ritative advices.
Of course, it is well known tha,
Young Corbett recently became a full
hedged member of the Down and Out
hub through the assistance of one
Tommy Murphey of Harlem, and hat
the financial prospects of the Denver
lad are none too good. 1t is also an
open secret that Jimmy Britt is pos

goods and chattels, as well as mucn
ncome-bearing realty, and that he
Will soon pull down another wad of
the needful in his battle with o.
Cans. Such considerations, however
do not influence Miss Alymar. Her
engagement to Britt is purely an af-
fair of the heart.
The date for the wedding has not
yet bee set, but it will likely take
place soon after the Gans-Britt bat
tie.

The following telegram, according
to the New Mexican of Saturday, was

Santa Fe:
Roswell. N. NJ, Jan. 26.-The ques-
ton of the creation of the proposed
new county out of part of northern Ed
dy and part of southern Chaves ou1
ties, has been fully considered and
discussed by the citizens of the two
counties interested in public meetings
and in private. The great majority
of the property owners of the tax
payers aid citizens generally are em-
practically Il strongly hostile to the
project and desire no interference
with the present boundaries of the
two counties and no creation of a
new county. The section out of which
it is proposed to make the new coun-
ty does not yet contain sufficient tax
able property OF poulation to prop
erly maintain an effective county gov
eminent, and the creation would be a
great handicap and an injury to the
county of Eddy. which would lose
too much property and which at this
time cannot afford the cutting down
of its resources.
THE business men generally, the
professional men and h farmers,
anu lnueed people OF all classes are
aroused and are signing numerous pc
titions to the Legislative Assemuly
opposing the passage of such a meas
ure and ask that no action whatever
be had al this session. l am thorough
ly acquainted with the people of this
county and l firmly believe that i
represent their sentiment in this
dispatch. The people of the town of
Hagerman are also moving and nave
signed protests. Otside of the imme-

ment is firmly and unequivoca1ly ag-

absence of the Chaplain from his post
of duty where he is kept very busy,
He went to Roswell on h Invitation
of the officials of the Military Insti-

course of lectures to the cadets. He
expressed himself as highly pleased
with the conditions he found, the ap-
pearance of the cadets, their behavior
and with most everything connected
with the school except that he re-
marked that there is a great paucity
of quarters and that the main building
stands in immediate need of extern

these are full. After l became ac-
quainted with the personnel of the

been asking myself as a purely disi1-
terested party if the people generally
of New Mexico realize that they have
at the head of that institution one of
the finest bodies of officers that n
where in the country are charged with
such duty. The personnel of the fac

be filling up with a very good class of

and surrounding country, about TO be
commemorated by the jamestown Elk
position near Norfolk, Virginia.
Situated between the Rhappahan-
mock on the east aid rae Mary's
Heights on the west. is the beautiful
colonial town, Fredericksburg. Probab
~ no town in the State has as great
claim to historical prominence.
In 1908, Captain John Smith, selec-
ted this site. A few families remain
ed there, and in 1927, Fredericksburg
proper was founded. Captain John
Smith did not remain there to govern
the new colony, and trouble with the
Indians caused many of the residents
to leave and return to the original
colony at jamestown. In 1882, Fred
ericsburg was incorporated by the
House of Burgesses.
George Washingto1's home and M
ny other places of historical interest
are still in existence. The place
where Washington stood and threw
the dollar across the river is still
pointed out by the residents.
Meditation rock, where Mary Wash
ington went daily to IA her Bible.
and pray, is marked by a tall monu-
ment. Just across the street from Med
itation Rock is Kenmore, the home of
George Washington. 1t is by far the
ha1dsomest colonial GUS in the old
town, which is noted for beautiful
homes. The house is still used as a
residence. 1t stands in the midst of
a great lawn which is shaded by anc-
eat elms, oaks and holly. in n cor
her of the lawn is the sun dial used
during the life of Washington.
In the Mary Washington House,
where everything remains intact, ev-
cry object is fraught with greatest in
terest. even the curtains at the win
vows are Tile same ludl mary WASH
ington herself hung.
e the center of the town is the
Rising Sun Tavern, where Thomas
Jefferson, James Monroe, and other
men who figured largely in the his
tory of America, were wont to stop
en- route to Washington n Richmond
The lettering on the sign, though dim
can still be deciphered.
In the Cemetery of old st. George
Episcopal Church is the grave of Will
liam Paul Jones, who was buried
there in 1862, and is said to nav been
one of the pall-bearers of William
Shakespeare.
On the 10th of December. 1862, the
town was b~ombarded. The thousands
of graves, unmarked save by the mum
Der of the regiment. bear witness to
that terrible battle, which lasted for
several days.
On Mary's Heights are found many
relics of ~war-cannon balls, bullets
c~anteens and pieces of iron from guns
etc.
The Presbyterian church is one OF
the oldest churches of the place, and
two cannon balls in the columns of
the stone porch are pointed out.
One never tires of these nights, and
it is not hard to understand why the
inhabitants are so proud of their beau
tiful old-world looking town.
