Four stout, athletic, respecta BILE
policemen were recently seen
driving u poor COW across the
bridge from South Frankfort. The
animal had probably been engaged
in wanton destruction Of private
property, and probably was being
taken under arrest to the city
court to answer such charge as
the four policemen might prefer.
The COW evidently had little
chance, under the circumstances,
and the owner, no doubt, contri-
buted "chicken feed. "

1t is mistake to suppose there
has been a change of boss" in
the work on the l.. & n. depot, as
the same push and energy and the
same large force of workmen, has
been apparent in the past few

may add, the baggage of passen-

Some one has suggested that
the ordinances of the city ought
to be published. 1t were much
better TO have them enforced. For
instance, the ordinance against
blockading the sidewalks with
barrels, boxes, merchandise,
wheelbarrows and chicken-coops,
so pedestrians are required to
pick their way through. So, the
ordinance against fast driving,
when it is dangerous to cross the
street at the peril of life and limb,
or the health ordinance for pro-
noting the hygiene of the city
by-the-by, is there such thing as
a Health officer, or has that in
offensive individual been abolish
ed?

SHNTR FECENTRAL
No. 2 IN WRECK
Broken Axle Calls Out Wrecking Train. En-
gipe Of Wrecker Turns
BrOnchO

On last Monday, Santa Fe Central
Train No. 2, northbound, went into the
ditch about a mile from Progresso, the
accident being caused by broken axle
of the engine, No. Is, E. P. & S. W.,
which is leased at present by the Cen
trail The journalwhich is seven inches
in diameter, shows an Cd break, a
small portion about one and a half by
five inches, being a fresh break. The
Wheel the right forv d driver, fell in
side the track, and was dragged u..ter-
meath the ash pan of the engine. All
the air was at once cut off. so that the
brakes were of no avail in stopping the
train. 1t is miracle that the engine
was not capsized, but the trucks other
than the one on which the break occur
red, held to the rails.
The passengers were given a rather
severe shaking up, butno one was hurt.
Conductor Friday tapped the wire, and
wrecking train and crew were soon
sent out from Estancia. This train how
ever, was destined to meet bad luck.
About four miles north of Willard, the
rear trucks Of the engine jumped the
track for some reason or other. Just
how to explain this, the trainmen are
at loss, unless it be that on account of
the engine pushing its cars, the rear of
the engine was too light to hold to the
rails. This required several hours to
replace on the track. The wood beam
of this truck was broken, so that after
working at the wreck and bringing in
engine Is, several hours were spent in
Estancia, before the engine could take
the passenger on to Santa Fe.

One of the business ladies, of Estan-
cia has recently received through the
postoffice an anonymous letter, threat
ening her dire veng eance even to TAX
ing her life for an alleged crime of
which the lady in question is wholly ig-
noyant. The writer, whoever it may be,
has not only shown his or her ignorance
in the iliiterate composition of the let
ter, but also laid himself or herself liza
bic TO severe punishment under the
postal laws of the United States. The
letter has been placed in the hands of
the officers, who are working on GER
tain clews to bring the offender to jus
tice. If successful, the writer will
without the least doubt, be dealt with
as severely as possible.

Good Report Of
Mounted POIlC6

Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. 25. That one
hundred and fifty-three arrests were
made by the New Mexico mounted po-
lice is shown by the report Of Captain
Fred Fornoff for the fiscal year ending
May 81, 1907, to the governor of the
territory.
the report shows that the mounted
police have been busy and it is becom-
ing more and more evident that the as
sistance Of this fearless body of officers
is becoming indispensable to the preser-
vation of law and order in the territory.
The mounted police force under Cap
tain Fornof now consists of eleven men.
Their movements are somewhat hand
icapped by the fact that no more free
transportation is issued by railroads to
police officers in the territory and the
present appropriation is insufficient for
the necessary expenses.
Of the 153 arrests, seven were for
sheep stealing, twenty-three for cattle
stealing, fourteen for horse stealing,
twenty-one for carrying pistols, nine
for murder, four for violation of the
game law, three fugitives, eight pris
oners who escaped from the penitentiary
and who were returned to that institu-
tion, and sixty-three for various other
violations of the law.
The counties in which more than ten
arrests were made during the year are
as follows: Santa Fe, 10; Soccorro, 18;
Guadalupe, ID; Otero, 13; and Torrance,
II. Arrests were made in most of the
counties of the territory, though less
work of this kind was done in counties
in the eastern part Of the territory than
elsewhere. During the long period COW
cred by the report there were restored
to their owners about 500 head of horses
mules, cattle and sheep which had been
stolen.
In the three months which have elaps-
ed since the end Of the period covered
by this report, the mounted police have
been unusually busy and quite num-
Der of most important arrests have
been made, including those of a num-
ber of first degree murderers. The
members OF the force have established
a reputation for fearlessness, shrewd-
ness and quick work which is "a credit to

RECKLESS RUS.
SELL COMING
To Estancia to Torrance County Fair, Oct.
lst to Atk. Street Fair ID
Connection

That the Fair Committee of the Com
mercial Club believes that the best is
none too good for the people Of the Es-
tancia Valley, is proven by the fact that
they have this week signed contract
with the manager Of the Hatcher-Rus-
sell Shows to bring in complete line of
Street shows together with several
stunts both wonderful and nervy. The
shows of this company are high tone and
moral, not an immoral or indecent act
appearing throughout the various pro-
grams. Mr.. Hatcher as. ured the men,
bers of the committee that they could
recommend the shows to the ladies and
children without fear of the least insult
resulting therefrom.
Among the other acts to appear here
will be the dash of Reckless Russell j,
a one legged daredevil who rides BIZ
cycle down hundred foot inclined plane
and upon leaving the edge Of the plane,
dives into a very shallow pool of water
eighty-fve feet beneath him, the wheel
falling into a net provided for the pur-
pose. The whole performance takes
/ but about two seconds, but is one of the
most thrilling sights one may witness.
This act will be given twice daily dur
ing the four days of the Fair. This act
is being advertised as one of the great
drawing cards at the Territorial Fair in
albuquerque, following the Torrance
County Fair.
MIR. Hatcher will bring not less than
eighty people with him in providing en-
tegAinment and amusement for the
citizens ofathe valley and those from a
distance who come to enjoy the fair and
spy out the Valley during the first days
t0f October.
The committee has also arranged for
a brass band, which will be here all of
the 1st, End, 3rd and 4th of October
with plenty Of music to assist in max
ing the whole thing the immense sue
cess it should and will be. Booths will
be arranged for the display of agricul-
tural products Of all kinds grown in the
valley. There will be places for every
pumpkin and squash of unusual size;
every tall stalk Of corn, every heavy
head of cabbage, every large turnip,
good yielding wheat, oats, rye, millet,
alfalfa, and the lands knows what-not
will find place at this exhibit Of agri-
cultural products grown within the
bounds of the greatest valley in New
Mexico. But that is not ALL After hav-
ing been displayed here, the best of
everything will he selected and sent to
the Territorial Fair at Albuquerque,
where Estancia Valley products will
again carry off first premium on vege-
tables, They have done so in the past
and there is no reason that they will
not do SO this year, Keep your wealth
er eye on the Valley.

REMEDY FOR SMOKE.

III Professor breckenridge of the
University of Illinois Ia oorrecuy
quoted. he Is of the opinion that the
smoke nuisance. which Is a serious
problem in many cities at the time
every house has TO be heated, could
be abated with but little trouble. AT
the heating plant OF the institution
with which he is connected II Is said
that 1t has been demonstrated that
the escape Of smoke can be prevented
and great saving of fuel effected at
the same time. And the remedy is
very simple The principle upon
which he bases his claim involves.
we are told, no complicated processes
or devices. Only have the boiler so
placed that the flames from the Goals
do not touch Il. Different kinds OF
coal have different lengths OF flame
and the distance between the boiler
and the crate must vary to suit the
kind of coal used. The Professor il
lustrates his theory, which he has
tested in practice. by the common
candle which burns with a clear flame
when left free. but emits plenty of
black smoke as soon as a saucer is
placed over 1t near enough to touch
1t. Is it possible. one naturally asks.
that the smoke nuisance can he abol-
lshed by so simple device? 1t seems
incredible. But sometimes very sim
pie facts escape observation a long
