Absolute, the $4,000 saddle stallion
which was the winner of the first
prize at the International snow. One
of the finest collections of jacks ever
brought together IN this country is on
exhibition, including a large string
from the famous Tennessee farm of
Colonel John r. Clay.
Invitations in Spanish were sent to
all the leading ranches of Mexico and
as result the southern republic is
well represented among the visitors
at the show. Mexican cattlemen are
becoming alive to the Importance of
breeding better cattle, and the desira-
bility of this will be further impress
ed upon them by the present exhibit
on. The republic of Diaz has just
arrived at a point that Texas reached
over score of years ago, when the
work of breeding out the famous Tex
as long-horns was commenced by the
Introduction of pure-bred bulls. As
a result there are now few of any gen
uine long-hor1s in this state. The
millions of cattle on the ranges of
Mexico are nearly all of the long-norn
variety, but the awakening of the ran
chers of that country will soon result
in a change for the better. A compa-
risoa of the 200 pound Texas steers
worth twice as much on the open
market as the 500 pound Mexican
longhorns, is certain to result in the
purchase by the Mexican ranchers of
many Texas bulls.
Elaborate preparations have been
made by the business men and citi-
zens of Fort Worth to care for the un-
precedeated crowds. The entertain
ment features are in charge of the
Mystic knights of Bovinia, an order
of commission men, merchants and
stockmen Tonight the visiting cat
tie raisers will be rendered a smoker
at Hermann park, and tomorrow even
ing a performance will be given at
Greenwall's tneater for their especial
benefit The Cadereyta Mexican Juve-
nile band, a musical organization com
posed of young Mexican boys under
strict military rule, has been engag-
ed to furnish the music for the show.
Members of both houses of the state
legislature have acceptell invitations
be the guests of the citizens of Fort
Worth during the show.
The first exhibition of the National
Feeders and Breeders show, popu-
larly known as the fat stock show,
was held in 1896, with only As entries
All of the exhibits were cattle off
the grass and the national show"
was held in grove of pecan trees.
Last year the entries numbered 2,171.
Arra1 1gements are now being made
for a specially constructed building
that will cost nearly 100000, with
room for an audience of 10000 and a
large central arena for the exhibition
of stock. The building will be one
of the biggest and finest ever erected
for live stock show and will be COM
pleted in time for next years exni-

STRIKE SITUATION
GROWING WORSE.

Hammond, Ind, Mar. 20-The strike
situation at East Chicago was i1ten-
sified today, when $500 men employ
ed by the Inland Steel Company
walked out. Three thousand of these
are common labOrerS, and the re-
mainder are skilled men. The reason
for the walkout was a demand of the
laborers for an increase of 25c per
day. Six hundred men struck yester-
day at the Interstate Steel works and
1900 at the works of the Republic
Iron & Steel Co. The walkout today
brings the total to over 5000. The
steel and iron industries of East Chi
cago are entirely tied up. Some riot
ing occurred early today, and one of
the strikers, who for the most part
are foreigners, was beaten by one of
the guards at the Inland plant

MONTHS-oLD
MARE HAS A COLT.

A mare only twenty-one months old
the property of the Ullery Furniture
Company, gave birth to a perfectly
formed colt Monday. The event is at
tracing the attention of all the horse
breeders and dealers of this locality.
1t is something none of them ever
heard of before. The colt lived sew
eral hours and tried to stand. The
youth of its mother was in no man
ner the cause of it's death. The phe-
nomenon has created more comment
than all the six-legged calves, freak
horses, etc, that nave visited Roswell
in years.

LEGITIMACY THE KEYNOTE.

The Roswell Realty Board has just
placed in the hotels, drug and cigar
stores and other prominent places, a
nicely framed and very attractive
card having three nice views of Ros-
we'll and vicinity, and the names of
the members of the board printed up
on it, the views in Sepia and the let
tering in blue. With the aid of these
the newcomer and prospective set
tier can acquaint himself with the
names of the different responsible
realty dealers and the location of
their offices. The members of the
Board will not visit the hotels seek
ing acquaintance with strangers, and
will not solicit business on the street
The stranger, by the aid of this card
being advised where their offices are
can see them there if he so desires
The Board has asked the hotel keep
ers not to permit any real estate
booster to loiter about their places
and to report to the Board any of its
members who solicit business in this
manner.
1t might be we'll right here to state
some facts regarding this Board, for
they are certainly of public interest.
There is nothing in the constitution
or bylaws of the Board that could
be in the least Objectionable to any
one who is carrying on a legitimate
real estate business, but there is
much that does not suit the Shyster,
who will not be bound by any code
of honor. The Board was formed to
put the real estate business on le
gitimate basis and regulate it so that
it would have to be carried On the
same as any other business. There
is no combination so far as the bust
ness done is concerned. Each mem
Der carries on his separate business
without any connection whatever
with the Board. The Board derives 40
benefit from sales that are made by
its members, The running expenses
of the Board are met by regular
monthly due. The members of the
Board will not accept for sale any
property listed with anyone who is
not a member of the Board. This Is
nothing more tnan right as protec-
tive measure, since anyone who is
carrying on a legitimate real estate
business will very naturally be
member of the Board. The Board al
lows the owner the privilege of sell
ing his own property. but places him
on his honor that he will not sell
through any agent who is not mem

English Capital in Philippines.
Washington, Mar. 2O.-American
capitalists have not taken kindly to
the plan for an agricultural bank for
the Philippines. and it now seems
likely that the bank will be estab-
lished with English capital. Ten per
cent is the maximum rate which the
firm establishing the bank will be al
lowed to charge, and no loan in ex-
cess of $4,000 can be made to one
person. English capitalists have found
the agricultural bank in Egypt a sue
cessful investment, and as the bank
in the Philippines is to be on the
same lines, the financiers of Great
Britain have shown a disposition to
undertake the establishment of the
institution in the Philippines.
