BARRIERS Hair Cut

"Wished I had time to 90 out and get
my hair cut" remarked barber as he
removed part Of the lather from the
customers lips with his second finger.
"Tlme to go out and get It cut?" re-
peated the man In the chair, with the
emphasis on "out." Are you like the
man that won't eat in his own restau
rant? Aren't you willing to trust one
of your own men to cut your hair?"
"Oh. I'd trust them, all right!' said
the barber. 1T isn't that, but you
hardly ever see a barber getting his
hair cut in his own place. The other
BARRIERS oil like to 50 home promptly
at quitting time, and If one Of us gets
work done during the day there is sure
20 be rush about that time, and it
makes 4 customer sore IL he has to
wait with two BARRIERS right here and
not waiting on him. He doesn't like to
wait around while one barber cuts an
other BARRIERS hair."-Cleveland Plain

the property as renyers.
Mr.. Kellogg, however, claims not to
have understood the matter in this
light, and refused to vacate the prop
erty. During his absence from home,
Mr.. Savage and members of his family
took possession of the place, the idea
being that by forcible occupation the
tenant could be excluded until such
time AS the two new tenants could oc-
cupy the premises.
Following this action by Mr.. Saw
age. there were warrants issued by
local authorities for the arrest of him
and members of his family, for fore
IDLY occupying the premises. Mr..
Kellogg, however, was unable to re-
gain occupancy of the farm through
this means.
Wednesday night an armed party
approached the Savage farm, evidently
with the intention of forcibly evicting
Messrs. Ashby and Fields from the
house, which they were then occupy
ing. According to statements made
by Mr.. Fields, the members of the
party approached the house and with
out parley smashed the door in. Shots
were fired by the approaching party,
and it is the belief of those in the
house that several bullets struck the
door. They say that Mrs. Fields and
a number of small children were in the
room which was attacked, one of the
children being a small baby in a Grad
lie, and that the flying debris struck
members of the family.
Mr.. Fields says he tried to parley
with the members of the party, but
while talking was struck with cog
wheel. thrown, he says, by short,
heavy set man. The blow knocked
him down. Fields says he had IN his
hands a rifle, but hesitated to FIRE,
thinking that bloodshed might be
avoided by parleying. Mr.. Ashby, it
seems, was in possession of % cal
ibre rifle, and upon seeing Mr.. Fields
fall, supposed he had been shot. He
therefore opened fire, shooting Mr..
Kellogg in the right breast. The bull
let entered the right lung, but did not
result fatally. Following this there
was cessation of hostilities, as it
was necessary to bring Mr.. Kellogg
back to town. He was taken to the
Pullman hospital, where be is at the
present time. He will recover.
The story of the approach to the
house and the following struggle is
told by member of the attacking
party from a different point of view

. r. D. ORCHARD CROP
BRINGS TWELVE THOUSAND.

John B.. Gill and j. R. Whitley have
bought the crop of the LID orchard,
paying $4,000 for the entire output
Of this year. The check given in pay
ment is said to nave been the largest
ever paid here for one lot of apples.
The orchard consists of about 20 ac-
res. The purchasers closed the deal
several days ago and began picking
apples Wednesday. They will dispose
of the fruit through the Roswell Seed
Company and expect to gather fifty
car loads of fruit from the trees. Ex-
cept for spraying and expense of care
during the past year, the $4,000 will
be net profits for the crop to the own
ers, an average of about S171 an acre.
The purchasers also expect to make
something out of it. There is little
wonder that such land cannot be
bought at prices that are considered
high anywhere else in the United
States.

TEDDY GIVES
PERMISSION

New York, Aug. 21.-Jas. S. Sher
man, Republican candidate for Vice
President today made the announce
ment that at yesterdays conference
with President Roosevelt at Saga
more Hill the consensus of opinion
was favorable for the nomination of
Governor Hughes as candidate to
succeed himself. This belief was bas-
ed on the fact that Hughes candida
c. was broader than the question in
Waived in New York politics.
Chairman Frank Hitchcock was
present when Sherman stated the re-
Suits of the conference, and assented
to all the vice presidential nominees
statements. Today will unquestionably
PIT an end to organized opposition
to the candidacy of Hughes, though it
is possible that individuals will con-
tinue to voice protests. Sherman
would not say what President Roose-
velt's views had been or what he said
regarding Hughes candidacy.
(No use to say. Everybody nows
that Roosevelt was the whole confer
ence.-Ed)

September 6, 1894.
For, awhile he quit the well drilling
business and entered the employ of
the Pecos Valley and Northeastern

of the company were located here,
and remained in that capacity for
three and a half years, until shortly
before the shops were moved to Am

the we'll drilling business on his own
account, and has continuously been
in that business since by himself,
with the exception of one year that
he was associated with C. P. Shear

emily two of the biggest well drilling
rigs in the entire valley. One of the
outfits is operating three miles east
of South Spring station putting down

THE ones who have had more to
do in the actual development of the

grizzled old timer, '1ll take my hat

Since coming here in 1897 from Nc
Kinney, Collin county, Texas, J.
Quincy Cummins has drilled at least
thirty-five artesian wells, and has not
had single failure or a dry hole"
These wells were in Roswell and vi
cinity to four miles below the town
of Hagerman, and several were the
largest gushers in this end of the val
ley. The deepest well, 1,120 feet in
depth, was drilled for F. N. Johnson,
of Galesburg, ILL.,, four miles south
west of Hagerman. The shallowest,
614 feet, was drilled on the old Goetz
place, four miles southeast of Ros-
well, for w. r. Mansel. Mr.. Cummins
put down two wells on the Oasis
ranch, and one, of these is a great
gusher that flows 3S inches above
an eight-inch casing and is 796 feet
deep. The smallest casing that has
ever been used by Mr.. Cummins is
5-S and the largest S-inch casing.
Mr.. Cummins was born at McKin-
ney, Texas, August 1S, 1874, the son
OF John Randolph and Sarah Eliza

he was twenty-three years of age. His
father was a millwright, and it seem
