Powelson Concert Company.

(From the Southwest American, -
FIT. Smith, Ark, Feb. 2, 1908.)
All of the numbers were excellent
and the four members of the company
were trained and talented and work
ed together in harmony They were:
Miss Elizabeth Pickins, violincel-
list;
Mr.. Calvin De Vol, violinist;
Miss Ethel Ritchie, pianist;
Miss Mary Powelson, reader and
story teller.
Misses Pickins and Ritchie and Mr.
De Voll gave excellent numbers
alone and in concert and showed
much depth of feeling and thorough
understanding of the music they rem
dered. Miss Powelson captivated the
audience by a series of well chosen
readings which she gave in a natural
and fluent manner. Altogether the
concert was a successful one in ev-
cry respect.

A GREAT SALE TO
COMMENCE MONDAY.

On another page will be found the
advertisement of Price & Co. This
firm is not only the largest of it's kind
in the Pecos Valley, but it is the
largest exclusive Dry Goods, Clothing
Carpet and Shoe house in the Terri
tory, occupying 312-314 N. Main street

running from Main street to the al
Hey
This coming week they advertise a
special sale of Ladies Muslin Under
wear. From the unusually large dis
large window it seems as though they
have more than enough to supply ev-
cry woman in Roswell and in Chaves
county. Then, too the descriptions
and cuts of these garments being so
accurate, any woman living out of
town can order by mail as well as
being at the store in person, and the
firm will no doubt dispose of one-half
their undermuslins through mail ord
ers. A visit to the store seems al
shall Field or John Wannamaker
shop. While, of course, on a smaller
scale, yet the class of merchandise
the Messrs. Price e Co. carry is equal
to either that of the Chicago Or New
York house, and their prices are no
higher, and in many cases below their
eastern competitors.
Now, regarding the Ladies' Muslin
Underwear sale, these goods were
bought and contracted for by Mr..
Price when in New York last July,
when labor was idle AID manufactur-
ers anxious to keep their factories
going, and therefore had them manu-
factured at great reductions from the
regular scale of prices.

| that the officers of the railroad would
not issue to their men an order of
this kind to entirely abstain from in
prepared to set the example. If abso-
lutte sobriety to the extent of entirely
abstaining from the use Of intoxicants
Is required Of the men who have to
do with the running of trains (aud
this will probably not be questioned
by anyone), it would seem that the
same conditions would prevail in re-
gard to those who have in hand the
running of the railroad itself.
Some years ago the writer was
fetal of a leading Southern railroad
There were quite a number of guests
on board, and at the dinner hour
someone made remark about the
absence of wines. The officer of the
road explained that the management
expected that the men connected with
the running Of trains to avoid the use
OF intoxicants, and that they did not
believe in issuing an order to the
men and then setting them a bad ex-
ample by furnishing wines or other
iltoxicants even to the guests of the
road when travelling On the private
cars of the officers. 1t is difficult to
see how men of right thinking could
have taken any other stand, and we
suppose, of course, that henceforth
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, from
the highest official to the firemen and
Ebrakemen, are pledged, whether ON
or off duty, to the avoidance of ALI
intoxicants.

Morse should he arrive on the steam

which sailed from New York Satur-
day, as he dined with him in New
York on Sunday. Another report says
that Morse was in box at the Metro
politan opera house last Wednesday
evening, and still another that he
was seen in Boston on the same day.
Mrs. Morse said today that her hus-
band sailed for Europe on the Cam
pania, and that she accompanied him
to the steamer. "Mr. Morse is coming
back on the Campania on her next
trip" said Mrs. Morse. "The voyage
was taken in order that he might
rest and recover some nerve force
He is a fighting man, and will be
pack to face anything necessary"

SHOULD CARRY BOND
ISSUE BY BIG MAJORITY.


The meeting of the Bond Issue
League held last night in the city
council chamber was attended by
about twenty-five enthusiastic mem
bers, and the bond issue situation
was talked over Informally and plans
paig1. The matter of getting the vot-
ers registered is the present work of
the League, and the fact that only
one more day after this remains in
which registration can he made,
makes it quite necessary that this
tomorrow. Reports we're received
from all the wards, and most of them
are in good shape as to registration.
The Fourth was canvasSed from
house to house by it's committeeman,
]. T. Carlton and Harry Lenox, whose
tomorrow by committees in other
wards.
Councilman Bell; member of the
water commission, made a speech in
which he urged the necessity of pass
ing the bond issue not only by two
thirds majority, but by an overwhelm-
ing vote that will quiet any objection
that might be raised if the vote is
close aid will make it easy to sell
the bonds. His sentiment was empha-
sized by Chairman Kellahin and 9TH
ers. The enthusiasts hope to vote the
bond issue ten or twelve to one.
d. C. Elliott was called upon, and
in speaking of Roswell's beauty, said
that tribute should be paid the man
who brought about the construction
of RoswelPs sidewalk system 1t is
the first thing that strikes the eye
of the stranger, and is not equalled
so far as he knew by any other city
in the United States the size of Ros-
well, or even twice the size.
John T. Mcclure was called upon
iott's speech by saying that the man
or men responsible for the planting
of Roswell's trees should be commem
GRATED in a way that will keep them
ever in the grateful memory of men.
r. H. McCune declared that when the
worked for the Issue and caused it
to win should be given a monument
that they might receive the full cred
it of their work.
M. Price talked from the stand
point of a business man, and said ne
sentiment of practically every merch-
ant in town when he declared himself
heartily in favor of the bond issue.
Plans for election day were discuss
ed It was decided that instead of hir-
ing rigs to bring in voters from the
outer edges of town and workmen
who would have little time to get
away, it would be better to have pri-
vate citizens show their interest in
the issue by giving the use of their
buggies and carriages for the day,
and, if possible, get out and drive
the rigs themselves. 1t had been re-
marked that the rigs would be need
ed for carpenters, painters AID others
at work In scattered parts of town.
The union carpenters of Roswell had
adjourned their own meeting and
come in a body to the Bond Issue
zseague, and II. T. Drury. one of their
number, resented the idea of having
the members of this union being haul
red to the polls. He said: We walk
to our work, and we will walk to the
pons and cast our solid vote for the
improvements" The carpenters to a
man were made members of the Bond
Issue League last night.
The League adjourned until Friday
night Of next week.
