of Family.

The unexpected and sad an
nouncement was received in So.
corro Monday morning that Mrs.
Joseph Eaton had suddenly died
the evening before at her home
in FL Pdso. According to the
report received here, Mrs. Eaton
was chatting pleasantly with a
gathering of immediate relatives
fourteen in number when with
out moments warning she fell
from her chair corpse. Rheu-
matism of the heart was the
cause of her instant death. The
funeral took place Tuesday af-
ternoon at the Episcopal church
in Ell PaSo under tile beautiful
services of the Order of the EaS-
tern Star. Col. II. w. Eaton of
this city, who was present at the
funeral, says that he never be-
fore saw so great a profusion of
flowers as that which was be-
slowed as a tribute to the memo
ry of the departed on this oc-
caSion. Mrs. Eaton was quite
well known in Socorro and the
bereaved family and the rela-
tiveS, some of whom reside here,
have the sympathy of a large
circle of friends in the city in
their sad loss.

GOLD MINING IN GOLD GULCH

Says the Silver City Independ-
ent; Active preparations are
being made by Fayette A. Jones.
c. E. and M. E., and associates
to open and work the extensive
placer deposits of Gold Gulch, a
tributary of Thompson's canyon.
The existence of gold in paying
quantities in Gold Gulch has
been known for many years and
the reason these values have not
been utilized has been an insult
ficiency of water. The deficien-
cy will be obviated in part by the
installation of the most approved
machinery known to the science
of placer mining which practic-
ally assures paying results from
the start"

THE HOSE COMPANY'S BALL
Was Gratifying Success, the Net
Receipts Amounting to $3.50

The annual masquerade ball
given by Socorro Hose Company
No. | Christmas evening was
very gratifying success in all
respects. The opera house was
crowded with revelers to its ut
most capacity and during the
dancing en- masque the fun was
fast and furious. Many we're
the surprises when the masks
were removed. Everybody en-
joyed himself to the top of his
bent until the small hours of the
morning. The financial results
of the ball were fully as gratify-
ing as could have been expected,

IT DOESN'T PAY TO Be GOOD
That Is Likely to Be the Conclusion
>)of Chu0h Goers ut Hillsboro.

a press dispatch from Hills
boro says that for the past month
or so petty robberies have been
going on in that town and the
adjoining section, and the propo-
Sition, and the proposition is now
getting close to the limit. Dur
ing the past week there have
been a large number of these ex-
asperating oifenseS. A week
ago when Mr.. and Mrs. c. u.
Johnson were attending church,
a thief took a whole quarter of
beef from the Johnson house.
Saturday night a bold and thirs-
ty robber threw a rock through
the front window of the White
House saloon and stole several
bottles of booze. Over in happy
Flat considerable number of
robberies have recently occurred.
While one man was in church SIS
in cash was stolen from his ram
sacked residence. Another lost
S45 in the same way and still an
other a sack of flour. Citizens
are beginning to get indignant
and talk of strong measures.

Ripley ON the Panic.

The observations of President
Ripley of the Santa Fe system
on the present financial situation
and his opinion of the future is,
to the thoughtful man, more
reassuring than anything lately
uttered. Mr.. Ripley throws no
suspicious gloss over conditions,
but differentiates between an
acute and active panic, and mere
ly dull times. There is a differ
ence between them which many
are apt to overlook. In the first
we are liable to lose the things
we have while in the latter we
lose only opportunities of adding
to our holdings. There may be
something disappointing in such
a condition but there is nothing
alarming.

TOOK FULLERTON FOR BRYAN
The Captain Has to Explain to Ad-
mirer of the Silver Tongued
Orator.

John f. Fullerton, the well
known cattleman of Socorro
county, who is visiting in the
city, had an experience in Albu-
querque this week that he will
not forget for some time. He
was mistaken for William j.
Bryan, says the Citizen.
Mr.. Fullerton was walking up
West Central avenue the other
afternoon, when a we'll known
travelling man rushed up to him,
grabbed his hand and shaking it
familiarly, said:
well, this is too good TO be
true; what are you doing in New
Mexico and Albuquerque?
How's politics, Bryan? Have
you decided whether you will be
the democratic candidate at the
next election? Well, live in ST.
Louis, but | believe that New
Mexico should be a state and if
you get elected, | want you to
boost like HI for this territory.
And"
Say" interrupted Mr.. Full
lerton, haven't you made a mis-
take. My name is John f, Full
lerton."
well, / guess / have" slowly
answered the travelling man.
And he faded quietly away.

Hundreds of Antelope.

On the return of Governor
Curry and party from the Pecos
valley to Albuquerque a few days
ago members of the party re-
ported that two bands of ante
lope numbering no less than a
hundred each were seen about
two hundred Yards from the
Santa Fe track on the cutoff be-
tween Willard and Vaughn.
Such droves of antelope were
common in various parts of New
Mexico twenty-five years ago but
they are now so scarce as to be
very remarkable.
