PHYSICIANS REPORT
REMARKABLE OPERATION.

Washington, Feb. 4.-The doctors
at Georgetown University hospital
witnessed a remarkable operation
performed there several days ago by
DIR. George Tully Vaughan of this city
on George A. Kelly. aged 20. The
bones of Kelly's knee were SO badly
diseased that DIR. Vaughan decided on
an amputation in h hospital as the
man was bou to die. DIR. Vaughan OBJ
tanned permission of the dying mans
family to remove the left leg in event
of his death and it was decided that the
knee of a lead man should be grated
on the leg of the living sufferer. The
transfer was duly made and the n
riveted together by a slender but
strong wire, and the most delicate
phase of the operation, that of caus-
ing the ligaments to join, a the
surgeons work as they probably nev-
er labored before. Every tissue, tend
on INT muscle poined. Kelley is said
to be improving rapidly.

sponsible for any one getting n-lrt un-
der the circumstances and you should
not care, and ought not want to jeo-
pardize the lives of the v%olunJ:er ire

citizens you will be more careful and
give them every opportunity to oper

ment with speed and safety. This is

movements in the city after alarms of
fire have been given, for a number of
years and I am sure / have never wit
messed as great carelessness, on he
part of the public, anywhere as at
Roswell, and it is due time that the
citizens should a k warning and that
the fathers and mothers of the city
should see that their children are not
in places where they should not be on
occasions of his kind.

call attention of some people to the
'recklessness that some of our citizens
exercise towards the Roswell Fire De-

to the hearts of every woman present.
Mrs. w. A. Johnson had the topics
of the times and chose the wireless
telegraph, which recently showed its
greatest value in bringing about the
rescue of the passengers and crew of
an ocean steamer. Mrs. Johnson told
of the origin and perfection of the
wireless telegraph, discussed briefly
its mechanism and the theory of its
operation, and concluded with a sum-
mary of it's uses and of the manner in
which it has become commercially val
liable.

WHAT is SAID ABOUT
THE STATEHOOD BILL.

The Denver Republican comments
on the statehood bill as follows:
1.-The bill agreed upon by the house
committee on territories for the ad-
mission of New Mexico and Arizona
as separate states, or n very simil-
lar to it, will probably become a law
at this session OF congress, practical
ly all formidable opposition having
been removed.
THE l~iberality of the measure in
respect of donations of public land
to the new states for educational pur-
poses may surprise people in the East
not we'll informed concerning land
values in the two territories. But all
occasion for wonder is removed when
it is considered that practically all
the and granted is arid, and that
in Colorado, Wyoming and Montana.
Owing to the greater heat and con-
sequent evaporation it requires more
water to produce crops in New Mexico
and Arizona than it does in states
lying farther moth. On this account
much of h nonirrigable LAND in those
territories may not be available for
dry farming" Grants of such land
will involve almost no sacrifice on the
part of the Federal government.
1.-THE fact that the bill gives New
AlSAlCO LWO REPRESENTATIVES, III COu-
gress will be gratifying not alone to
the people of that territory but to all
other persons residing in the far west.
Arizona, having a smaller population,
will be allowed but one; but it will
not be nan ear until it will secure
the additional representative. OF
course "a state will have two sena-
tors, while New Mexico will have four
and Arizona three votes in the cleo
toral college.
Rapid growth and development of
that part OF the Southwest which is
occupied by New Mexico and Arizona
should follow their admission as
states. They have extensive
in agricultural, horticultural and graz
ing lands for very little of the area of
either is so arid that it will not pro-
duce pasturage, and under irrigation
the land which can be watered will
yield bountiful crops. New Mexico has
extensive deposits of coal, but Arizo-
ma is the more fortunate of the two in
respect of metalliferous resources.
Their admission will be most time
ly in relation to the Western move
ment of population, h~omeseekers be-
ing now prepared to loo for oppor-
tunities in that part of the country,
and, stimulated by statehood, both
should increase rapidly in population
I'M wealth."

y benefited by increasing the proper
y values throughout the territory for
he purpose of taxation and that the
AK levy can thereby be reduced. We
oeleYe that property values can and
mould be doubled within the coming
gwo years. 1t is the sense of this
board that in order to bring about
such results it is necessary for the ter
rator1al board of equalization to be
composed of the chairmen of the diff
ferent boards of county commission
ers."
Commissioner w. M Atkinson of
Chaves county was appointed a mem
Der of a committee of three to confer
with the governor relative to the basis

Warning.
To the Public
The Fire Department Of the City OF
Roswell, as we'll as the citizens, have
been annoyed a number OF times re-
Gently by parties turning in false"
fire alarms. This habit, it is we'll for
those who are disposed to cultivate it,
should b. checked. City authorities
have about reached b limit of pa
thence and severe penalties ST ordi-
nances will be enforced if such acts
are repeated. Let this be sufficient
to those who are disposed to annoy
in this way.
You are further notified that the
city police department has been au-
thorized and instructed to arrest any
persons, not connected with the fire
department, who may be found after
the alarm has been given, anywhere
upon the sidewalk or the drive on
Third Street east of the alley be-
tween Main Street and Pecos Avenue
in the vicinity of the engine house
and upon the south side of sail Third
Street. 1t is the habit of some peo-
pie to rush to the engine house after
the alarm has been given AMI inter-
fere with the operations of the fire
company. You are notified that this
must be stopped. You do not assist
or help,-you simply delay, and you
AVE no business there and must not
be found there unless you nave been
invited to assist by the chief of the
fire department or his assistant. This
will be strictly enforced and it mean
everyone who is in the habit OF hang
ing around the engine house or going
there after the alarm of fire has been
given. There will be no exceptions
to the rule. You must keep out.
