times he can catch Pullman, more
often he must trek cross country-in
the saddle perhaps or catching few
jolts along the trail. In Wyoming ev-

and after the speechmaking the con-
gresham to be must foot it into the
small hours with the wives and daugh-
terS, for the women vote in Wyoming,
and doing man. lively and hard as
nails, successfully to run for congress
in such q neighborhOOd. and the man
who wins means something more to
folks than just a name. They've seen
him, fed him, brushed the alkali dust
drunk with him, eaten with him, dane
ed with him. And when he comes back
from the far and mysterious east they
are interested and glad. They want to
talk with him and hear what he has
been doing, and from the big towns to
crossroads iu the sagebrush they hang
up bunting saying. "Welcome to our

New Mexico Meerschaum.

Because of the discovery of vast de
posts of meerschaum In the mountains
of New Mexico it is likely that the mo-
nopoly of that mineral heretofore held
by the Turkish government will be
broken, and pipes Of that material will
be lessened in cost. Until recently all
the mcerschaum used in the commerce
of the world was produced from a
mine in the plains of Eskihi-sher, Ana
tolia, Turkey in Asia. In those mines
are employed 10000 men. The output
Of the mine is owned by the Turkish
government. and it kept the price up.

been discovered in Grant county, n. NJ,

the Senate committee on military affairs

testimony of rather startling nature, al
though the larger part of their examine

merely corroborating the course of the

William Mapp of Company c. again
testihed to having heard some one out

man was calling the soldiers by a vile
epithet and threatening them.
Although he heard very distinctly this

call to arms he had not mentioned the
Incloent to any person until he gave his
amdavit at Fort Reno, September 25 He
tnen made the same statement in sub
stance He also again testified that Vos-
cneie. white man employed at the cor
raj as a boss when he came down to the
dining room OF Company c. said that 1t
was a good thing the men had not been
allowed to remain out after 8 o'clock that
night, because he heard a white man saw
they were going to attack the colored
soldiers down at Allison's saloon and
massacre them.
Mapp was closely cross-questioned on this
statement by Senator Warner, and said
that he was sitting next to Voschelle when
the remark was made, but that no COM
ment on the part of the soldiers followed it.

| when the fact was developed that he had
been arrested, along with eleven other men
who were put in the guardhouse after the

| nor had specific charges made against
them.
He was asked why he was arrested, and
he replied that he didn't know except that
Capt. Mcdonald had sent for him and told
MIN to bring his caps. He replied when
Capt. Mcdonald asked him If he had all
his caps that he would see. He said he
could see no reason for this, except that
one of his caps might have been found in
town.
When asked If he had been out in town
and done any shooting that night, he re-
piled that e had not
When asked whether he knew why he had
been arrested he said he did not know ex-
cept that one of his caps might have
been found. Capt. Mcdonald had not told
him that one of his caps was found. Final
ly, he said that he had given a cap to
know what had been done with it. He said
that a large amount of old clothing had
been thrown in a box, and that Mexicans
and others had secured it, as Ii was worth
