the interests of the voters and tax

The Democratic party has plenty
of good business men for every office
in the city-and if they nominate
hat sort of men, there will be no Op-
position. However, the safest plan
to insure the nomination of such
men is a general or mass convention
of citizens. Break the slate of the
whispering ward politicians, and let's
all work together for the advancement
and prosperity of Roswell, New Mex
leo.

If the saloon men keep their hands
off in the coming city election it is
possible that they may continue to
do business under high license and
strict regulation for years to come
but an offensive move on their part
Just now is liable to drive them out
of Roswell within a few months. We
do not want a saloon fight at a time
when the city is just entering upon
an important business enterprise
but if the liquor men force the fight
they will dig their own graves.

Democrats of the Fifth Ward have
centered upon Captain Haynes for
city councilman, J. E.. Rucker and
|Chas. Sain for members of the school
board. They are said also to be a
unit in favoring Walter Paylor for
city clerk, Mr.. Paylor living in that
ward. Their slogan is harmony and
the upbuilding of Roswell. 1t is not
likely that any plan which might be
devised for holding a primary in the
Fifth would lave any effect in chang
ing the selections already made by
the Whitema1 brothers..

w. G.. Wilkinson, a consulting en-,
gineer of Kansas City, arrive last
last night to look into the water
works and proposition of Ros-
we'll. Mr.. Wilkinson has just finished
building the water plant at Trinidad.
He was once chief engineer of the
~waterworks at Dallas, and for three
years was superintendent of the
Kansas City waterworks. That he is
a thoroughly practical man there can
be no doubt. He is vouched for by
such men as Col. G. c. Slaughter, of
Dallas, and others. The plant at Trim
dad was built with the assistance of
a commission of five business men,
a plan similar to that of Roswell, the
work being subject to the approval
of the city council. A political wran-
gle forced Trinidad to resort to the
commission system, and after the
vas placed on a purely bust
basis there was no more trou-
BILE about building the plant.

SLICK FAKIR CAUGHT
Was Operating on The "Grsen
 Ones" at Forest Park.

A neat gambling device was seiz- ed by Detective Dodds and Doorman Mates in a raid on gamblers at Forest park yesterday For the past six weeks, according to the man who was captured in the raid, gamblers have been plying their crafty games in this place. When the police got to the park only one fellow had the audacity to remain, two others had fled having smelled rat. The gambler who was ar rested and his property confiscated gave his name as Charles Sisco, an Italian from Newark, N. J. This fel- low was running what is known as spindle"
 In circle of a 14-inch diameter he had number of iron pegs, like the ends of so many augurs, about two inches long stuck in a board. Between every other two of the pins was red paper flower. From a pivot in the center the spindle re- volved and on the end was strong piece of paper or celluloid which
 
 as it revolved. Right on the cor ner of the board where the manipu- lator of the game would naturally rest his hand, was bulb on level with the board and covered with a green cloth which concealed the bare surface of the whole board. By pressing on the hidden bulb the com- pressed air. would effect the spindle and make it absolutely impossible for anyone to win but the owner or operator of the game or his capper. The affair was so nicely adjusted that it could not fail to win the praise of all the police officers who saw it for, it was something new in the mechanism of an old, old game.
 Between, not on the pins, the operator placed what were sup posed to be gold watches, stick pins and pieces of mems jewelry. Some of these watches fell into the hands of the raiding officers and were splendid samples of the sublime audaclty of gamblers. There was absolutely nothing whatever in the case of the supposed watch but a dial with hands and piece of wood under the dial. Of course the gam. bier had a genuine watch which he exhibited as bait to the spectators. who were not allowed to handle any of these on the board. The stick pins and other trlnkets were on a par with the watches. The whole outfi. vas so constructed nat it could be nicely paced ;1 a 1at box with nickel corners ard a leather handla ard could he taken angwherc without arousing tie slightest sus> picion.
 Sisco had been operating his game cnly short time when the officers came upon him, but he was doing we'll, for himself, beautifully Illustrating the o'i saw that a suck CT is born every minrte.
 Sisco put up cash bond Of SIS when he was arrested and when the case vas called in court this morn. ing he did not. answer and his bond was called. His coming to Water bury, he told the police, would cost rim over $100. His outfit cost him s45. his bond s15 and his other expenses, hotel, and railroad fare SIS, and a new outfit $45 more makes a total of S125.

WASHING SUMMER DRESSES.
How to Fix the Golfers and Prevent
 Fading.

Fading. An excellent laundress who has nAyer been known to fade a summer frock says she has a special "fixative" for every color.
 Alum used in the rinsing water will prevent green from fading. A handful of salt thrown into the rinsing water will set blue.
 OK gall is good to use for gray and brown. Hay water made by pouring boiling water over hay is excellent for washing tan or brown linen.
 A tablespoonful of black pepper stir red into the first suds in which cottens are washed will prevent colors from running.
 ! Five cents worth of sugar of lead crystals dissolved in a pailful of water makes solution which fixes the tons of pinks, blues and lavenders. The fabrics should remain in the sugar of lead bath half an hour or so before going to the suds.
 These baths will not prevent a gar. ment from fading if 1t is hung in the sun to dry. Delicate colors--in fact any colors at all-are safe if dried in the house.
 Vinegar is useful in reviving colors. Add one teaspoonful of common vine gar to each quart of cold rinsing water. Thoroughly saturate the article, wiring tightly and dry quickly. If the color has been taken out of silks by fruit stains, ammonia will usually restore 1t.
 To wash brown Holland dresses, use bran, but no washing soda and no soap unless the skirt Is very dirty. Boil two handfuls of bran in one quart of water and strain through muslin. Put the bran on to boil again, as you will require Q second supply of bran water for rlnsing.
 Cool the water by adding one quart of cold water to 1t. Then wash the skirt. You will be surprised to see how the bran extracts the dirt. Rinse first in bran water. then in plain water. Put the article through a wrlnger and Iron while damp on the wrong side.

WHO IS SULLIVAN?
Murdered Man Said 10 Belong
 iD This City.

Superintendent of Police Beach is in receipt of a communication from Inspector McCaffrey of the New York police department, which states that Joseph F. Sullivan, thought to be of this city, was recently murdered there by James Murphy, his pal. Both men were crooks. Sullivan is described as man of about 29 years of age, six feet one inch in height, weighed about 180 pounds, dark complexion and brown mus tache. He and Murphy are said to have been in this city about three weeks ago, at which time they com mitted burglary, but the local po- lice heard nothing of the affair
 Moreover, although they are not positive they are almost certain that Murphy is not a Waterbury man, nor was Sullivan ever a resident of this city. The local department believes they resided in Hartford.
 A few years ago Sullivan served eighteen months in California prison for assaulting a United States officer in the Philippine Islands.
 Among the stolen articles found in their rooms were ten assorted chains, 10 plain gold rings, one gold ring with white stones, one yellow fob chain with seal attached, two stick pins, one small yellow mirror, one pair small shears, ten pair of as sorted sleeve buttons, one electric pocket lamp and one match box. These articles were apparently taken from one place, but the local police has been informed of no burglary in which such goods were stolen.
 The 3rd of August the local police received word that man named Murphy and a pal had been operat. ing in Hartford, and Superintendent Beach is inclined to believe these are the fellows that are thought to have resided in this city. Sullivan is said to have brother-in-law in Williman- tic.
 The police have no idea who Mur- phy is and although there is a pie ture of Sullivan in the rogues' gal lery which almost fits the descrip- tion of the man murdered in New York, still the detectives do not think it was the Waterbury man.

They live alone and were greatly frightened when a man sneaked stealthily into their room and lighting match held 1t close to their faces while in his right hand was big revolver. He said nothing but immediately went from the room after scrutinizing them closely. Just as he was leaving the room stones came crash ing through the windows, shattering practically all the glass. 4
 The mother became hysterical but the daughter hastened to the win dow. Several residents in the neighborhood were also awakened and were in time to See three men running down the street. Yester- day morning Teresa Padovano call ed at the police station and there Identified Capodanio as the man who entered her home.

 The Padovanos have not lived in this city long, coming here from South America. They lived on Bishop street until recently and while residing there were so an- moved that at one time had to call upon the detective department for protection from intruders. The mother and daughter are in needy circumstances and have been out of work for some time. The mother Is still hysterical.
