DROVE CAR HUNDRED MILES
WITH BROKEN RIGHT Arm

If anyone doubts the grit of Her
bert Smyrl, driver for the Roswell
Automobile Company, all they need
do is ask DIR. G. R. Rucker, who came
in with him the other day, on mis-
way home from Old Mexico. Smyrl
was driving the car from Torrance.
and at the very start his bad luck
commenced. On .+back kick" of the
AUTOS engine, the crank struck Smyrl
on the right arm. fracturing the bone
and completely paralyzing the arm
for the time. The pain of the injury
was terrible, and DIR. Rucker, who was
the only passenger, would have con-
sented to their remaining IN Torrance
TO await the arrival of reinforcements,
but Sm.Tl would not give up to do
this. Inr.sad he had the doctor bind

MERCHANTS CARNIVAL
WAS A GREAT SUI


The Carnival of Merchants, given
last night at the Majestic Theatre IN
der the auspices of the Southern Pres
i0yterian church, was a great success.
Although the management had spent
less than week in preparation, ev-
out to perfection. The house was
packed.
The show consisted principally of
young ladies in costume representing
the different business houses of Ros-
well and advertising the goods of the
stores represented. Many of these
characters were highly attractive and
all were good. The young ladies exc
cuted drills and marches, incidental
to their individual appearances on
the stage, making up a highly enter
tanning program.
Other numbers were drills by little
girls in white, recitation by four of
the little girls, a solo by Mrs. Stella
Ritter, violin solo by Miss Evangeline
Nelson and solo by Mr.. Schilling. The
program was concluded with a splen-
did tableau of all the characters in
the show.
The performance will be repeated
tonight with complete change of
program except as to the literary
numbers. 1t is given in a good cause
and merits the attendance of the
people.

THREE KILLED, EIGHTEEN
INJURED IN A WRE(

San Jose, Cal, Jan. 10.-South-
bound train No. 10, tle Sunset Ex-
press on the Southern Pacific railroad
was wrecked last evening at Rucker,
and little son, of Portland, Oregon,
were killed. An unknown tramp steal
ing a ride on a brake-beam was also
killed. The eighteen injured were ta-
ken to the Gilroy hospital. The cause
of the wreck is not known. Six
coaches left the track. One rolled in
to the county road. The passengers
in this were the most seriously hurt.

The Record will not undertake the
task of saying anything new about
Elder G. C. Hill, who recently an
nounced himself candidate for Coun
ty Superintendent. We learn some
thing new about him every few days,
and have not the space to catalogue
all the good things that might be
said of him. First and foremost, Mr..
Hill is a preacher of everyday Chris
tianity, and perhaps the most elo-
quent all-round speaker in Roswell.
He has been a school teacher, a law
yer. a newspaper man, and ''saYyies'
politics. After coming to Roswell
about four years ago he was elected
Grand Master of the Odd Fellows of
Missouri, but resigned so as to re-
main in this country for the benefit
of his health. He has lately acquired
a small farm near town and intends
to make his home here, whether elect
ed county superintendent or not. The
growth of his church in Roswell las
made the pastoral work too heavy
for a man in somewhat frail health,
The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1908-01-10

and his resignation was recently ten
dered But speaking of his physical
frailty, we should like to see the color
of the mans hair, even in the sound
est health who has the energy, the
nerve and the determination to keep
buster than Mr.. Hill. He is now a
member of the Roswell board of edu-
cation and mainly to his tireless eff
forts is due the present condition of
the city schools. That he is capable
and that he will make things happen
if elected county superintendent, ev-
erybody knows. He has the endorse
ment of the local Republican paper,
and it is freely predicted that the Re
pubicans viii 1ot put out any candi-
date against him. Mr.. Hill took a prom
inent part in the campaign which
drove gambling out of Roswell, and
even since announcing himself can
didate for Office he has not hestitated
to declare his position on the saloon
question. He is a Democrat and man
of moral courage.
