Barney's pleasant voice, rolling ever
so slightly his r's-it was only Barney
making this remark TO Alderiy, the
chaperon's husband:

leave its horizon. Barney, who never
thought of woman's looks, was dis

not meant what he had said to her at
all.
Irinda felt very much as she had
when some one told her that George
Washington and his little Ratchet and

ably only pleasant stores. But at the
same time she was suddenly conscious
that she did not love and never had

sat alone. A little flicker Of sunshine
was touching his brown hair with gold.
Irinda. with a quick indrawing of her
breath, remembered that it had looked
just so the morning her mother died.
The doctor had told them-her father
and herself-that the sick one could
not live through the day. and he had
gone away and left them to their sor
row. Mserably father and daughter
had communed together. She must be
told. but each shrank from the telling.
Just then Jim had come. He had been
like son to Irinda's mother. and they
relegated the task to him. knowing
that Jim never had shirked a duty in
his life.
She remembered how he had gone
about it--not smoothing over the sad
facts at all. but with eyes and manner
and words so full Of sympathy and
tenderness and stanch hope Of the I'M
known future that death seemed to
lose something of its dread. And as
She at the foot Of the bed had lifted

death chamber. He would not have
lacked in sympathy. but he would haze

encouragement could be. She drew
contrasts as she watched the brown,
hair turning golden-contrasts between
foam Of the sea and the cool blue
depths of the ocean itself, between a
bending reed and a sturdy pine be-
tween responsibility and true heart
edness. Then she went over to the
seat where Jim sat alone. The face he
turned toward her startled her with its
sternness.
"Irinda. / have loved you for long
time. but you've always put me off
from telling you. 1t may as well be
settled now and forever. I want you
for my wife. and I'll do my best to
make you happy. I don't want any

6STANGIA WILEY
General Torrance Shows Party of Capitalists
over tns Valley

On Monday morning agent Kennedy
received word that special train bear
ing number of eastern capitalists
would arrive from the north soon after
noon. The train bore General Francis
J. Torrance, one of the capitalists of
,. Pittsburg, who financed the building of
| the Santa Fe Central, and a party of
friends, who are making an investiga-
tion of the valley and it's prospects. In
the party were: Gen. F. j. Torrance,
Walter Lyon, J. w. Arrott, j., H. c.
Obnaur, J. P Hunter, Robert Law,
Geo. F. Duck, all of P.ttsburg; Ex-at
torney General VIM. L. Taylor, of IN
diana; DR.. Chas. R. Keys, geologist

yer; Col. w. S. Hopewell, president of
the New Mexico Fuel and Iron Co.; j.
R. Farwell, chief engineer of the Cen
trial. Gen. C. F. Easley, attorney of the
Central and John Fielding Jr.
After stop of some minutes, the
special pulled out for Torrance, the in
speotion trip covering the whole of the
line. The special returned to Estancia
about seven O'Clock, the party spending
the night here. On Tuesday morning
the party divided, some making trip
to the salt lakes, owned by the New
Mexico Fuel & Iron Company, the rest
driving to the mountains.
The inspection, which is to be
thorough one, is for the purpose of in
teresting the capitalists in the building
of the Albuquerque Eastern. From
here the party went to Albuquerque
where they met the Commercial Club,
and the matter of constructing the
road and what it would mean for
the development of the valley and
the Duke City was discussed at length.

Drought Broken in the Valley.

On last Sunday good shower fell
over part of the valley, being espec-
tally heavy from Estancia northward.
On Monday and Monday night this was
followed by other showers, the rains on
Monday night being pretty general
throughout the valley. The precipita-
tion at the local weather station was
thirty-one one-hundredths on Sunday
and eighty-three -hundredths till
Tuesday morning.
The drought seems to have been brok-
en- throughout the valley, andwhile late
yet untold good will result from the
rains. The rains will do the greatest
amount of good to the forage crops,
and assure an abundance of feed for
the winter. The soil will be in a good
condition for fall breaking, and this will
be vigorously pushed.
Another good shower We'd os3"y-
night gave us eighty-nine one-hundlcd-
tbs of an inch more of rainfall, making
a total for the week of two and thirteen

MURDER FELLOW
WORKER And SKIP
For Old Mexico. Arrested by Mounted Police
at Alamosordo

The body of Mexican, Miguel Casias
about IS years of age, was found at the
Lucy sand-pit, IA miles east of Willard,
Monday morning by the crew of water
train. Life was extinct A bullet hole
in the throat, one in the left arm, an
other in the back at the base of the
spine, and cash on the left side of the
head, made evidently with an ak, indi-
Gated the manner Of death.
Word of the tragedy was sent to Will
lard, and deputy sheriff Barney Mason
at once commenced search for Leon
ardo Garcia and companion, both for
mer companions of the dead man, who
are suspected of committing the crime
These two worked at the sand-pit with
Casias. Saturday and Sunday the three
men were in Willard and spent the time
in drinking and carousing. Sometime
during the night they returned to the
sand pit on hand car, and it is sup
posed became mixed in a quarrel Mon
day morning, when Casias was murder
ed. An overturned coffee-pot and frying
pan in the tent where the men ate and
slept indicated that the quarrel started
inside, although the murder was COM
mitted just outside. Either of the two
bullet wounds or the blow with the ak
was sufficient to cause death.
Justice Jurado of Willard, impaneled
a coroner's jury Tuesday morning and
went to the scene of the murder and
held an inquest. The jury compos-
ed of VIM. D. Metzgar, foreman, Lon
Piper, Richard Craig, Antonio Cordova,
Rumaldo Mirabal and Guillermo Salas,
found that death was caused by three
pistol shot wounds and blow with an
ak, caused by unknown persons. An
ak, clotted with blood, was found near
the body of the dead man. Sewed in
side of vest pocket was wallet, con-
tanning $52 in currency. A letter from
the dead man to his wife in the state of
Jalisco, Mexico, was also found on the
body This was forwarded to it's des-
tination by Justice Jurado, with let
ter fully explaining the manner of Cas-
las death.
Garcia and his companion are strong
ly suspected and diligent search is be-
ing made for them. Under sheriff Ma
son rode to Abo Pass and return with
out success, and is at work on a fresh
trail. A member of the Mounted Po-
lice force was called Monday night to
assist in the man hunt, and with Ed
Smith rode to Torrance Tuesday morn
ing in search of the men wanted. They
expect to go as far as Alamogordo, and
possibly Ell Paso, as it is probable that
the men are on their way to Mexico.
Casias, Garcia and the third man, have
been working at the sand pit for sever
al weeks past. They came here from
Mexico six months ago, and have been
working for the A. I. & S. F. prior to
the time they commenced work at the
sand pit.
The remains of Casias were inferred

stead adjoining Willard.
LATER:Wor has been received here
by Officer Meyer of the Mounted Police
that Officer Dudley has arrested the

has them at Alamogordo, awaiting the
