For five hours the firelnen worked
faithfully and TO their credit. The
ruins were still smoking through to

The trouble about this fire was that
j: had too big a start when discover

house. When discovered by the Fergu-
son boy, from the west side, the fire
was entirely within the big vacant
room at the northeast corner of the
building. or on the opposite side of the
house. This goes to show that il was
sJurning briskly at that time. After
tne few minutes of time that probably
alarm communicated to others on
North Hill and the alarm was trans

Partment. the flames had burst thru
the windows. Then the fire depart

The whole interior of the building was

The pressure guage at the power

to the amount of pressure. This in

The pressure was right at 100 pound !

pounds. and then began to gain stead

PROSPECTS FOR SUCCESSFUL ORGANIZATION OF

The manner in which business men
in Roswell, and even outside the Ter

about the organization of the New
Mexico National Life Insurance Com
pany Is a sure indication that ii will
succeed" said ID. C. Mckinney of FIT.
Worth, Texas, who Is here to aid in
Mr.. Mckinney has been connected
with half dozen big Insurance con-
panies, and states that the prospects
and general outlook for the rapid sale
of the stock of this company, are
brighter than he has ever before seen.
Inquiries from Texas, Oklahoma and
Kansas have been received at the or
ganization offices, and a large amount
of stock can no doubt be placed in
those states. 1t is the intention. how
ever of the organizers to place all
the stock possible in the Territory be-
fore going outside.
New Mexico is contributing ap-
proximately s1,0O0.OOO a year to out
side companies, and the amount is in
creasing every year." continued Mr.
NJ Mckinney, why shouldn't this mon
ey he kept at home? There is no rea-
son why New Mexico should not have
a big life insurance company-people
are just as capable and progressive
here as any place on earth. For ex-
ample. there is Missouri, which had
few years ago. To-day it has eight

than $3.50 900 over s1.000,000 of

Roswell is recognized as the f.
nancial center of the Territory. and
With an institution like The New
| Mexico National Life, gathering in its
premiums from this and many other
states one can readily see what it
means to the state and city. Ii will
not only stop this enormous drain but
will place the Territory in the same
attitude with states having well or
ganized companies iby reason of the
| large amount of outside money that
will come in. in the way of premiums
to this home company.

tributes so rapidly TO the decrease o
interest rates as the investment of lift
insurance funds. This of itself, asid,
from the profit individual life insur
