Enrique Arm;jo. deputy county
assessor, has received from Col.
lanes Wilson, superintendent of
the New Mexico Military institute
at Roswell, a most flattering re-
port of the progress his young son,
Louis S. Armijo is making at that
institution. Col. Wilson says that
it affords him great pleasure to
make such flattering report for the
second term of the efficiency of
the young man, who is already a
a cadet sergeant. He says that
the boy stands at the head of his
class and has won distinction by
hard work. He has been by no
means extended special favors,
says the superintendent but was
given the same opportunities as
his fellow cadets. He is a good
boy and | trust that now he has
reached the head of his class, he
will continue to hold the position
until he graduates"

BRUCE Case TO SOON
COME UP FOR TRIAL
Australian Claims the Title and Es.
tates Of the Duke Of Portland.
Has Good Claims.

London. March BACKED by a
syndicate 0f spectators who have
furnished the money to press the suit,
the Bruce claim TO the title and %.
tate Of the duke Of Portland is ex.
pected To come up for trial within q
few weeks, and will be one OF the
most startling and sensational In the
history Of the courts Of England. The
chances Of Druee's success are being
eagerly discussed b. both high and
low. aud Thousands Of wagers have
been laid ON the result, books being
at many cigar and news venders'
stalls. Al the present time the odds
offered are 2 to / In favor Of the
present duke retaining his title.
Attorneys for Druce have brought
the legal proceedings In the form Of a
suit to eject Lord Howard de Walden
from the real estate inherited by his
father from the fifth duke Of Portland.
II they succeed In proving that Druce
OF the Baker street shop was the
same man as the iifth duke, tho right
of bruce TO the do Walden estate and
10 the Portland title and estate will
necessarily follow.
To prove his contention Druce has

personal knowledge that the Baker

ker street. ana VINO was a witness to

Portland. aud her testimony will be
invaluable to the prosecution. The
other witness is the Countess of Cork,
who has sworn to the statement that
she frequently visited the late duke
at his Baker street shop, where he
was known as Mr.. Druce
The present duke OF Portland pub
licly treats the Druce claim as a good
joke. but the fact that he has EN-.
ployed some OF the ablest lawyers of
England to defend his title Is suffi.
cient evidence that he looks upon the
matter seriously. In 1879, when he
inherited the Portland title and es-
tates. he was a petty officer in the
Coldstream guards, and had an in
come of only s2,500 year beyond his
pay. Later he came into the title and
estate of Baron Bolsover, with an In
come of $4,000 year. SO that In the
event that Druce Is successful he will
still be a peer. although a compare

bers of the British nobility would
waste scant sympathy on the present
duke and duchess IL they should lose
their title, since the high AMI mighty
air with which they have sought to
rule English society has not endeared
them to the majority of the peers.
Druce declares that he cares moth

the event of winning his suit he will
return to Australia with his fortune.
