FAKE TELEGRAM
CALLED SOLDIERS
fs"-.s.----v - 80 N~.ion-s Guards Re-
spondcd to An Alarm Last Might,
the Order PuTporthg to be From
Adjutant General Tarkington,

There may be a few court martials
among the officers of G. company. of
the New Mexico National Guard In
this city, as the result of the hurried
mobilization Of the company last
night at 7 o'clock upon ficticious tel
egrams purporting to be from A. p.
Harrington, adjutant general with
headquarters at Santa Fe.
General Harrington arrived in AL
buquerque last night from Las Vegas.
The general said he had sent no tel
egrams to the officers of Company G
and knew nothing about the matter.
He said he would at once begin a
thorough investigation in order to fix
the responsibility for the actions of
the officers and to kind out who faxed
the kilograms.
Captain Burtner who is in COM
mand of the company was not pres
ent last night and It is doubtful IL he
knew what the other officers were
doing. He said that Friday night
was the date of the usual weekly so
-cial gathering of the men of the
company and he supposed that they
assem- bled last evening. But the men
tell different story.
nty say lHdl luty were
to assemble at the armory by one ID.
X. Lane. who bears the title of first
lieutenant. The men say Lane and
his emiSSaries issued an imperative
call to arms purporting to have a
telegram from the adjutant general
ordering them to assemble the COM
pany and have It ready for marching
order in two hours.
Some Of the men were called away
from their work In order to 60 home
and slip into their uniforms. Others
left hurriedly for the armory without
stopping for supper.
II appears that when the men
reached the armory they found Lieut..
Lane and Lieut. Forber awaiting
them. They formed in company and
then began a tedious wait for march,
ing orders as they supposed, Several
reorts leaked out among the embryo
soldiers. Some one said the Apaches
were on the war path and the militia
had been called upon the fight. Thh
report nearly frightened some of the
boys into chills.
Finally the company, or some OF
II, was marched to the fire at the
Continental Oil company. When the
returned from the fire, an
other highly official telegram was
read. Gismissing The company. Then
II is said the lieutenant gave the
boys the merry "ha, ha" and an

BOYS HAVE EXPERIENCE
ON OLD MT. GARFIELD
Clifton Youths Try to Make New
Trail Over Steep Precipices, But
Are Not Successful.

Six adventurous young men of
Clifton decided a few days ago to
make trip to the mountains, says
tody's Clifton Success. They chose
Mount Garfield as the mountain they
would climb, and proceeded to the
base by means of a horse and wagon.
Then, instead of taking the old trail
past the coal mine. they decided to
try the trail which leads through
the west gap. Instead of striking the
main trail, they started up the slope
following the trail of a lonely mule.
They had not gone far when the
mules trail disappeared, leaving the
boys to the mercy of their own noun
tain climbing; so, when they saw the
main trail some distance away, they
proceeded to climb hogback after
hogback steadily going up until they
reached the first rimrock, and were
apparently as far from the trail as
ever.
The climbing was very difficult.
and. in throwing the grip containing
the lunch upon a jutting rock, it
broke from its hold and went pell
nell down the mountain side, scat
tering eggs, sandwiches. aranges and
pickles in its wake. The dinner, of
course, was total loss, and the grip
was never recovered. The same fate
befell very valuable pair of field
glasses which went crashing to the
rocks below.
The boys kept getting into worse
instead of better travelling, owing to
the fact that they would leap from
jutting rocks down to lower lodges.
At last they were almost hemmed in
and with difficulty escaped a wiser
and sorer bunch than when they
started.

CURE CONSUMPTION
BY Use OF
MERCURY
Especial to The sentinel.)

Washington, Apr. 25.-That mer-
curry can be used as an effective wea-
pom against the ravages of tubercu-
losis is asserted by Naval Surgeon
Barton Lisle Wright.
Administered by deep muscular in
jections, the mercurial treatment un-
dertaken by Dr. Wright has thus far
tention has been directed to the re-
suits, and Medical Inspector Hibbett,
with other authorities, are convinced
that science should look more deep
ly into the value of mercury as a
specific for the dread disease.
DIR. Wright first observed the eff
fects of mercury on tubercular pa
tients in the spring of 1905, during
the latter part of his tour of duty at
the naval hospital at Pensacola. at
which place the bureau of medicine
and surgery had established tenn
porary camp for the treatment OF
tuberculosis.
He had under his care patients in
fected with the disease and found
that the pulmonary LESSONS of these
patients improved rapidly under the
lnHuence Oh mercury. ne was at the
same time administering other rene
dies, but it became evident to him
that the mercury was the agent most
effective in combating the disease.
The first cases were regarded in
the light of an experiment by Dr..
Wright; but he had opportunity to
again practice the treatment about
September. 1907. in the naval hos
pital at New Fort Lyon, Colo, where
patients suffering from the disease
were received. The first results there
were not satisfactory, but when the
quantities of mercury injected were
increased. immediate and decided
Improvement took place. Several
practically hopeless cases have been
given the treatment, and. it is as
serted, steady improvement, with
gain of strength and weight, has re-
suited.
