They're Off at sennine's.

New York, March 25.-Many New
York horsemel nave gone down to
Washington today to witness the op-
ening of the eastern racing season
at Bennflg's. Among turfmen VINO real
ly belong to the meet at the national
capital is looked upon as mere pre-
liminary try out unworthy of serious
consideration, but this year it is evil
dent that more good things will go
to the post than usual at the Ben
nings track. De Mund, Tangle, Salvi-
dere and number of other fast ones
have been wintering at Washington
but are not likely to try for any of
the comparatively small Bennings
purses. Tickle, Pater, Anna Smith,
Quadrille, Orphan Lad and Reidmore
are apparently the best bets on the
Bennings card. Tickle is especially
in good form and will be backed hea-
Willy by all the wise ones the first time
she goes to the post.

San Francisco, Cal. Mar. 2O.-The
storm and flood conditions through
out California are somewhat improv-
ed today, although portions of the
great interior valleys are still threat
ened with inundation. The levee south
of Sacramento broke during last
night, and the residents of the dis
trict which was flooded are reported
in danger The flood waters from the
San Joaquin river have receded from
the streets of Stockton. but the river
is still bank full, and further rains
may bring another flood. In the vicin-
ity of Sacramento and Stockton the
main river islands are under water.
Many valuable crops nave been de-
stroyed, and there has been consid-
cradle loss of stock. The losses to
the island owners in the vicinity of
Antioch will aggregate a million dol
lars. In the Santa Clara valley the
fruit crop will not exceed ole-half.
The railroad situation is more favor
able today, but telegraph communica-
ton is still interrupted

To save the aIower classes -

Washington. March 25.-A commit
tee of prominent clergymen of New
York recently visited Washington for
the purpose of enlisting the aid OF
President Roosevelt in checking the
religious decline which threatens, ac-
cording to the ministers. to make the
metropolis "a nest of infidels, agnos-
tics and atheists" Returning to New
York, one of the distinguished clergy
men. Dr. Donald Sage Mckay, made
the following statement to the press:
The president was greatly interest

Incubation and Incubators,

1t is now time to think of cleanin g
up the machine. The dry weather is
against a good hatch, but as the hen
knows it and few feel like trying
one can, start the incubator, and by
added moisture make a natcn. After
trying every known plan, the writer
finds that moist sand placed in shall
low tin trays under the egg tray, is
the best way, to supply moisture.
Moisture must be as near the heat
of the incubator as possible, so the
sand must be made moist with hot
water, and as it dries out have fresh
moist sand ready to take it's place.
Another plan is to spray the eggs
with a small sprayer and w<rm wa
ter twice day after the 10th day.
One great point gained is not to let
the eggs dry out before being placed
in the incubator. Eggs are great alb
sorbers of moisture; yet as it is to-
day, no moisture in the air, they will
dry. To those who use moisture
guages to get a successful hatch, the
moisture guage must show 60 deg.
Yesterday l tested a setting hen,
and the moisture guage showed 55.

the ''lower classes" is not calculated
to bring them to the proper realiza-
ton" desired. The rebuke, if given,
was certainly merited. Nowhere in
the country have there been so many
public exhibitions of snobbery by cler-
gymen as in the metropolis. 1t is not
strange that the workingme1 OF New
York should come to believe n the
socialistic theory of classes, since the
moral leaders do so much to foste-
the idea. Neither is it strange that
self-respecting workingmen should
stay away from the churches presided
over by ministers who refer to them
condescendingly as the "lower clas-
ses.'
Of course such criticism does not
apply to all New York clergymen nor
even to a considerable proportion of
them. 1t is unfortunate that the snob-
ocrats, working hand in hand with
the socialists to overthrow the ideal
of nation without classes, should
have attained so much prominence.

San Francisco, Cal, Mar. 25.-Abra-
ham Ruefs attorneys have, it is said
withdrawn their writ of error filed
with the U. S. Supreme Court and
state that they are now anxious to
proceed at once with the trial on the
charge of extortion. Attorney Frank
Murphy said last night: 'We have
instructed our representative at
Washington to withdraw the writ of
error filed by us. This decision was
reached on account of the decision
of the state supreme court to the eff
feet that the participation of an in
competent juror does not affect the
validity of an indictment. We will
proceed without further delay with
the trial of Abraham Ruef."
San Francisco, Mar. 25.-Abraham
Ruef and Chief of Police Di1an were
in Judge Dunn's court this morning
on indictments charging conspiracy
and eXtortion. They were to have en-
tered their pleas to the Indictments,
attorneys Heney and Burns being bu-
sy on the work of the grand jury,
which resumed at 1870 tbs after
noon, the cases were postponed for
one week by the consent of botn
sides.
The prosecution views the action of
the defense in withdrawing from the
United States Supreme Court the ap-
plication for a writ of error as IA
tai laying down of arms against tae
prosecution of Ruef on eXtortion
charges before Judge Dunno That is
to say, the defense, according to the
prosecution, now expects to go for
ward with the trial to avoid which
Ruef's attorneys have bent all their
efforts and expended all their re-
sources.
Washington, D. c., Mar. 25.-On
motion of attorney for regular coun-
sci of Abraham Ruef, of San Francis

nation of the motion. the court ord
cred that mandate ia the case issue
at once.

Boise, Idaho, ar. 25.-Judge Wood
at Caldwell today overruled the mo-
tion for change of venue in the Moy-
er. Pettibone and Haywood case. The
court gave the defendants their OPP
tion of trial at Boise or in Canyon
county. Boise was agreed upon after
consultation with counsel.
The Thaw Case.
New York, Mar. 25.-Counsel for
Thaw, with the exception OF Delmas,

whatever action is possible to con-
vince Justice Fitzgerald that their
client is not insane. Thaw's wife and
mother, his brother Josiah and his
sisters, the Countess of Yarmouth
and Mrs. George L. Carnegie, also
were in the court room some time
before the Judge arrived.
After waiting in court for a short
time, Thaw's counsel and his relatives
were Informed that Justice Fitzgerald
would not reach the court room until
p. m.

BANQUET FOR GOVERNOR;
EXECUTIVE NOT PRESENT

A banquet was given at the Grand
Central Hotel Saturday evening, com
plimentary to Governor H. J. Hager-
man, but the Governor was soundly
sleeping in a warm bed at Need
more, the halfway station on the
automobile route throught the serv-
ing of courses and proposing and re-
sponse to toasts. 1t was a literal case
of Hamlet with Hamlet left out
When it was learned Friday even
ing that the Governor, Attorney Gen
eral Reid and Harold Hurd were COM
ing home at midnight Saturday, some
of the Governors warm friends de-
cided to have little surprise for
nim upon the arrival of the special
auto, in the form of a midnight Iun-
cheon and reception. The affair was
planned Saturday and all arrange
ments completed for a pleasant sur
prise-but as usual, the Governor
surprised the other fellows.
Late Saturday night the little
crowd gathered at the Commercial
Club to await the arrival of the Gov
ernor. At midnight his auto had not
appeared, and at 12:15 it was pro-
posed that a detachment go out IN
al auto to meet him. This party was
composed of Mayor Stockard, Robert
Kellahin, Col. J. w. Wilson and Per
cy Evans. The scouting party went
as far north as the Ballard ranch. 10
miles, and as nothing could be seen
across the prairies of the coming au-
to, they returned and reported that
there was nothing doing.
So the remaining crowd proceeded
to take the edge from their appetite,
which had become quite snarp by
that time. What was called a lunch
was nothing short of a banquet, and
was greatly enjoyed. Besides the
scouting party those who remained
for the feast were Nathan Jaffa, z.
A. Cahoon, DIR. J. w. Kinsinger, w.
F. Greenwood, w. G. Hamilton, K
S. Woodruff, Charles DeFreest and
L. K. McGaffey.
The Governor and his party came
in at nine o'clock Sunday morning,
feeling fresh and fine, but sorry they
mad not known what was in waiting
for them at Roswell.

cavalry, relieving a similar number of
white cavalrymen. This is the first
time in the history of West Point
that Negro soldiers have been station
ed there aid numerous predictions
are being made that trouble will re-
suit from the innovation. According
to the statements of war department
officials, the negro troops were sub
stituted for white cavalrymen because
the latter objected to caring for the
horses and otherwise acting as lack
eys for the young cadets. 1t is ex-
pected that the colored men will not
object to this service and will prefer
duty at West Point rather than going
to the Philippines with the other mem
bers of the Ninth cavalry

The Republican Congress.

From Dryan'S COmmOner.
AT its short session recently clos
ed the Republican congress broke all
records for extravaganza, and sub
serviency to special interests.
1t appropriated nearly $1,000, 900. 600

of asset currency by increasing from
s3.O0O.0O0 to $4,000, 900 the amount OF
national bank notes which may be
retired during any one month, and
gives to the national banks the use
of government funds without interest.
1t tried to fasten upon the people
the ship subsidy. which steal, having
passed the house by Republican
votes, was defeated in the senate by
a Democratic filibuster.
Here are some of the things which
the Republican senate either directly
ignored or deliberately defeated:
Tariff revision.
Popular election of senators.
Income tax.
Inheritance tax.
Copyright law revision.
Philippine tariff revision.
Citizenship for Porto Ricans
Child labor bill.
Beveridge's effort to require the

LaFollette's efforts to obtain for

its Willingness to serve the special
nterests.-Bryan's Commoner

A Complaint Against "Gaters."

Citizens living south of Roswell are
making a strong complaint against
those farmers living from six TO
twelve miles south of Roswell who
have been in the habit of closing the
section line roads, or imaginary
roads, and putting in gates. With
these distractions to pass, travellers
have to get out of their rigs at ev-
cry mile to open and close a gate.
A citizen states that there will be a
delegation before the next meeting OF
the county commissioners the first
Monday in April to present their
views on the matter.
