princess answered, hardly knowing

The ladies of the court, who. with
their husbands. had been waiting to
congratulate Leopold. crowded round
the girl az the emperor turned to them
with a look and gesture Of Invitation.
A seat was given her, and the arm IN
it's blood stained sleeve was hastily
bound up. She was the heroine OF the
day, dividing honors with its hero.
There was scarcely a grande dame
among the brilliant assemblage or the
emperor's platform to whom Lady
Mowbray and her daughter had not q

who would have given their ten tin

Noted Case Ended.

The case Of the United States
vs. Henry Coleman and Albert
Keith, of Deming, charged with
wire cutting, was disposed of in
the federal court at Las Cruces
last Friday, when the jury rem
dered a verdict of acquittal for
the defendants. The ease took
up some ten days of the courts
attention and was hotly and
stubbornly fought.
United States Attorney Leahy
handled the prosecution and H.
B. Holt, of Las Cruces, and our
able local attorney, r. F. Hamil-
ton, appeared for the defendants.
As will be remembered the
wire cutting which started this
case was perpetrated on the 18th
of last January and took place
at the homesteads of Messrs.
Burney and Dickson, some few
miles east Of town. Shortly af-
ter the crime was committed a
young cowboy named Bud Cow
in was arrested on the charge of
committing the offense. lie
plead guilty at his trial and was
sentenced to a year in the pen.
However, in his testimony he
implicated Coleman and Keith.
At the trial just ended his
statements were proven to be
false and the acquittal of the de-
PENDANTS followed.

HEADLIGHT
OFFICE BURNED
One of the Oldest News.
papers in the Territory
Goes Up in Smoke.

For the second time within two
weeks Deming was aroused
Wednesday night by the fire
alarm, and in a very short time
the Headlight, one of the oldest
institutions in Deming, had gone
up in smoke.
The plant of the Headlight
occupied the old Wallis building
on the corner of Gold avenue
and Pine streets. An addition
joined the main structure on the
rear and there fire evidently
originated. r. Swanzy first dis.
covered the blaze shortly after
8 o'clock and gave the alarm. Al
that moment the flames appeared
to be confined to the west end
but they quickly spread and
rapidly enveloped the entire
structure.
All of the machinery, presses,
type, files, subscription list,
books, accounts and records OF
the Deming Headlight were de-
stroyed absolutely. Nothing was
saved. The forms, ready for
printing this weeks issue of the
paper, were melted. The de-
struction was complete.
The only explanation of the
origin Of the fire is that of incen-
darism. There had been no fire
in the building since Wednesday
and the rear rooms had recently
been cleared of all trash.
The Headlight was established
by J. E. Curran in 1881 and was
published as daily for a number
of years. Geo. l.. Shakespeare,
the present proprietor, has been
its editor for 10 years. The loss
was only partly covered by insur-
ance, the amount being placed at
$3.50. 1t is understood that a new
plant will be established immed-
lately.
The building was owned by W.
c. Wallis and was ensured for
$500. 1t was one of the original
buildings on the town site.

Col. Belts for the House.

Colonel Howard H. Belts, of
Silver City, the Republican nom
inee for the House of Represen-
tatives of the Thirty-eighth leg
islative assembly from the Fif-
teenth district, composed of
Grant and Luna counties, has
been unanimously selected by the
Republicans Of the two counties
named.
Few men are more popular
throughout the territory than is
Mr.. Belts, and in Grant county,
where he has resided for the
past twenty-five years, as well
as in his district, there is no one
more respected or of whom bet
ter is thought, and his district
will very likely elect him to the
seat for which he is running by
a good majority.
Col. Belts, if elected, will
bring to the office a great mine
of valuable information, exper-
ience in public affairs, and will
be found one Of the best men,
bers of the assembly, always on
the right track and in favor of
legislation for the benefit of his
constituents in particular and
for the territory in general. He
is astaunch and true friend of
the public schools and will be
found favoring proper legislation
for the upbuilding and increase
of their usefulness and well do
ing. In other words, Col. Belts
is splend idly equipped gentle
man for the position.

The Board OF Commerce has been

The committee was informed that no
Detroit factory was In a position at
this time 10 promptly manufacture a

Thus the first order of buttons was
placed with the Detroit representative
Of an outside house, which quoted the
lowest price. IL there is a factory In
this city now in position to manu-
facture entirely in its own plant but
tons OF the same design and finish as
first ordered. the committee says Ii
will be glad to receive a bid from It.
The City Service league Will also
want buttons with pin backs and hat
pins 80 the girls and women OF Detroit

them, and orders for these will be
placed with Detroit houses II they are
In a position to manufacture them at
the right price.
