SILVER CITY DOES NOT ELECT
SALOON KEEPER MAYOR

Silver City, N. NJ, April 4-Percy
Wilson has been elected mayor of this
city by a vote of 26O to SO W. F. J.
Rose. The latter is manager of a sa-
loon.
The election was one of the most In
teresting and exciting of years.
For many ear past Silver City's
city affairs have been kept out or
politics and a primary of the citizens
would be held and n ticket put in
the field for all the city officers.
At the primaries held just before the
election, F. J. Rose the candidate for
mayor was not satisfactory to a num-
Der of the citizens, who the following
day called a mass meeting and put
another candidate in the field, which
caused a fight for votes on election
day.
Perc- Wilson a young attorney,
heeued the Citizens ticket for mayor
and was elected. The balance of both
tickets were the same, with w S.
Cox Inc Ed A. Lay1e for the council
and Robert Lack and Harry Kelly for
school board, they being the only can
didates for these Offices.
The fight for mayor was a warm one
and although it was a very rainy day
one of the largest votes cast in a city
in the history of the city was
polled.

MISSOURI LEGISLATORS
IN SPECIAL SESSION.

Jefferson, City, Mo-, April 8.-Mem-
bers of the forty-fourth general assem-
bly, are pouring into Jefferson City, to-
day in response to the call of Cover
nor Folk for an extra session to pass
various reform laws. The special ses-
sion will formally organize tomorrow
n is expected by the governor to com
ny legislators believe that his per-
iod will be insufficient, while others
declare that a portion of the measur-
es advocated by Folk will not be pass
ed at all The proposed laws are be-
ing vigorously discussed in the hotels
today and there is every prospect that
in the coming contest the lines will
be closely drawn between the follow
ers and opponents of MissOuri's mill
tant governor, with his political future
depending to a considerable extent
upon the outcome.
A matter which will likely occupy
much time for its consideration is
the enabling act advocated by Cover
nor Folk, giving to each municipality
the right to regulate the rates charg.
VI Df III ~
The latter are, of course, bitterly op-
posed to the proposition n a lively
fight is likely to develop.
One suggestion of the governor that
is certain to be favorably considered
is the emergency clause to the law
prohibiting rae rack gambling. The
act was passed at the regular session
but does not become effective until
June. The proposed emergency clause
will cause the act to become operative
at once and will put a quietus to the
rumored race meeting at st. Louis.
Prominent legislators who have
been interviewed on the subject de-
clare that there is little likelihood of
dramshop legislation during the spec
ia1 session. 1t is rumored that a pro-
position for submitting the question
of prohibition to a vote of the people
will be offered, but it is no likely to
receive favorable consideration.
The u warranto bill advocated by
Folk, providing for the removal of der
elicit county officials, is not looked up
on with favor by the members, as is
evidenced by the fact that it was de-
feated at the regular session.
Members will draw their full pay OF
SIS a day during the special session

tomobile Saturday night from Silver
City, where he has been for 2 months
running a faro bank game in one OF

recognized as a good place for faro
dealers to go broke, but uncle John

that he is the first man that has made
a faro bank pay in Silver City in fiji
teen years. The old timer also re-

LEASING OF RANGE is
ENDORSED BY WYOMING

Cheyenne, Wyo., April AFTER one
of the stormiest sessions in its his
tory, the Wyoming Live Stock asso-
citation passed resolutions favoring
leasing of the federal range re
queStilg that ~ cent per acres be
made the minimum charge and 1H
cents the maximum charge.
The leasing proposition was fought
by Governor B. B. Brooks, who said
no man with the interests of WyOm-
ing in view would favor sucn a poll
cy. Governor Brooks position was
attacked by II. T. Gay OF Converse
county, who became so personal in his
remarks that President w. c. Irvine
called him to order. Gay insisted that
he be permitted to discuss VIA he
referred to as the "statehouse gang"
meaning Governor Brooks and his as
sociates, and when again called to or
der by the President he resigned from
the association. His attack on the
Governor and his latter action created
a sensation in tie convention.
A surprise in connection with the
adoption of the leasing resolution was
hat it was favored by an Overwhelm-
ing majority of the small ranchmen
present. No public discussion of the
fencing question was INDUCED in, this
being left to committees
The reports of the associations in
spectors at cattle markets showed
that more than 100000 worth of
estrays were rescued in the
markets asst year.

OPENING OF PITTS BURG
AUTOMOBILE EXPOSITION.

Pittsburg, Pa, April 8.-Gover1or
Stuart, Lieutenant Governor Murphy
and the two mayors of Greater Pitts
burg have been invited to take part
in the ceremonies incident to the for
NAL opening this evening of the first
annual show of the Pittsburg Automo-
bile Dealers association. A large mum
Der of prominent people from other
cities, including representatives of all
the clubs of the Pennsylvania Motor
Federation, are here to take part in
the opening festivities.
Duquesne garden has Dee beauti-
fully decorated for the show and the
work of installing the exhibits was
completed this afternoon. All of the
dealers of the city are represented
by their latest models. One of the
biggest eight cylinder cars ever built
is on exhibition, and it is one of the
striking novelties of the show. The
cylinders are rlaced on two rows,
working the opposing connecting rods
to the same crank. An exhibit of
motor boats is the only foreign dis
play to the automobile business il
the show.
The exhibition will be open through
out the week and is expected to at
tract large crowds of enthusiastic
motorists from all over the western
part Of the state.

EMILIO RESIGNED;
AWAITS HIS FATE CALMLY.

OF Rosario Emilio, the Lincoln
county murderer under sentence to
hang, who recently obtained a stay of
execution until a rehearing of the case
can be had in August, the Captain
New says:
Emilio still occupies the condemn
ed cell in the county jail at Lincoln,
outside which in the Jail yard
has zen erected the gruesome struc-
ture intended for his execution. The
knowledge that mis- time on earth had
been prolonged until August OF Sep
TENDER, with a possibility of the SUI
preme court granting him a new hear
ing, and perhaps, changing the death
sentence to Imprisonment for life in
the p~enitentiary, did not seem, from
his outward appearance, to cause him
much thought. The two years he has
spent il a condemned cell, with
death staring him in h face e not
appear to have had much effect OF him
either physically or mentally. His
weight and flesh remain about the
same as before his conviction. He
maintains an easy, peaceful, half re-
signed expression, and is very little
roubl to his guards. When inform
ed that it was possible he would be
removed to Santa Fe for safe keep
ing until his fate was finally decided.
an expression of pain fitted across
his face as he replied: Il would be
very sorry to go back to Santa Fe. 1
would much prefer remaining mere in
shackles. If the courts decide that
I must die. l would like to spend the
little time Above me in the town
where l grew up from childhood If
my sentence should be committed, the
doors of the p~e1itentiary will be clos
ed on me forever" He seems to have
a wonderful will power. which two
years confinement has not materially
weakened. Hearing the noise made
by those erecting the gallows, he in
quired tne cause, and when told, he
merely nodded his head, as if he had
already guessed as much. There
seems to be a very strong feeling
against him among the natives, but
few wish him executed.

The collection includes both old and
modern pictures, a large number be-
ing studies in the nude. A consider
able numbe of the older c~anvasses

schools, no attempt having been made
to prove that they are h work of the
famous painters to whom they are
ascribed. Other pictures are recorded
definitely as the work of old masters.

years of age was dangerously injured
by jumping from the south bound pas
seager train between here and TeXico
Thursday evening, and lies at the Ven
dome hotel with little hope for his
recovery.
Doran. it seems, was to get off at

until the train had left there when
he pulled the cord and jumped before
the train had hardly slackened its
speed. He was picked up and brought
here and Dr.. Bryan called in to *
anime his injuries.
From the papers found on him it
was found hat he was from Marys-
vile, Missouri. and a telegram was
sent there last night. There is no i'm

CHARGES FOR BEDS
DURING CONVENTION.

1t has been whispered about That
some people do not expect to charge
for their sleeping apartments during
the cattlemen's convention. The cor
mittee insists that all conform to their
order to charge in private homes the
same as in hotels. 1t is further asked
that except in case where people de-
sire individual rooms, bath, or luXur-
les, that the uniform charge of fifty
cents per mead per night be adhered
to.

After losing Friday by a close score
the Military Institute evened up the
score with the town base ball team
Saturday afternoon at Amusement
park by winning from them by a score
of seven to four. the game Satur-
day was much more satisfactory thar
the one previous, for it was devoid
of the wrangli1g thai characterized
the other. Fred Hunt held the indi-
Gator and he made the players while
not on actual duty keep their right
places, i. e. on the bench.
By scrutiny of the official score 1t
will be noted that the hits were al
most equal, seven and six, in the Ia
stitute's favor, and that the strike
outs were the same, eight and eight,
but in the same table it can be seen
hat the town team made twice as
many errors as h cadets-and right
there is the reason for the cadets
result. The earned runs were two and
two. Without errors, the game would
have been a tie in the ninth. One
thing that contributed one earned u
for the Institute was a sacrifice nit
by Cannon. No attempt was made
by the town team at sacrificing, the
batters all depending on their might
at the stick.
A recital of how the various runs
were made would be embarrassing ex-
cept for "thirty-three degree" fans,
and for them the offictal score is Civ
IN below.
For the town team Captain Leland.
Caldwell, China and Sanchez played
an errorless game. Chinn made two
long, running catches hat brought ap
plause. Sanchez had but one chance
and then the sun blinded him till he
could not reach the ball. Fred Wilson
accepted three out of -four chances,
making a pretty catch of a line drive
from Miller's bat. Caldwell made
one play in throwing to first when he
could nave touched out a runner that
was surely an error in judgment, tho
not an error in fact.
Kennard for the Institute was the
first to measure the new fence He
sent a long drive over the boundary
Just beyond the two-baSe hit line and
made a home run of it. Stewart, Gro
well, Hester. Cannon. Miller and Mon
toya no errors, but the out field did
not have a chance to show what they
could do. Morrison and Ke11ard had
the most of the infeld work n play
ed snappy ball most of the time. The
infield made one nice double play.
Thes two games nave been good
practice for both teams and will pre-
pare both for battles with "outside"
enemies" With two home teams con-
testing for honors it is hard for the re
porter to show no favoritism, but the
criticism or compliment has been Civ
en- to the players of both sides where
it was deserved with the idea of bet
tering Roswell base ball, whether it
be from the hill or the valley, and it
is hoped that the boys will take it in
the good faith it is given.
EnllnWinn is the Official score:

Wednesday evening bou five o.
clock fire broke out in the feed store
of o. B. Hill and il a few minutes the
entire town was on the scene, but too
late to do much good as the fire had
gained too much Roadway to be extin-
guished. The caIlp house of the wa
go1 yard which N. Hill runs in con-
nection with his fe d tore, being on
ly a few yards away and owing to the
direction of the wind was also con-
sumed by the flames. The citizens
did some very quick work in tearing
down the low shed running nearly all
around the yard preventing a spread
ing of the fire. No one knows how the
fire was started as Mr.. Hill and his
assistants were absent at the time
and the fire was coming out the roof
of the store before it was discovered.
The loss was about $4,000 with only
