corn will yield excellent results.

Of the twelve Jurors required to try
the case OF the STAGE against Frank
Kethman. Four veniremen were ex-
cused this morning after examination,
one declared himself opposed to cap

ed views as to the value of circumstan-
tial evidence
The first Juror accepted was Anton
Peterson Of Ulen, he was followed by
George Cams farmer from the same
community, the next one accepted was
F. M. Higgins Of Hawley and a few
minutes before noon Soloman Hcldt
was accepted and took the fourth chair.
IL as good progress is made this aft

is anticipated that all of the twelve
chairs in the jury box viii be occupied
by next Monday at noon. So far there

on the case. Each side may challenge
for emplied bias or actual bias. If the
former, the court decides as stated
above, II challenged for actual bias
then the three triers examine the Juror

they find in their opinion, that the juror
cannot try the case at bar, In a fair and
Impartial manner, then he is excused.
II they, by a majority vote, pass the
juror, or accept him, their decision is
final, and the Juror can be ousted only
by the exercise OF perembtory chaI-
lenge. of which the state has ten and
the defense twenty.
Up to this time the state has ex-
hausted two OF its peremptory chal-
lenges and the defense one of theirs.
The veniremen are being very closely
questioned by Mr.. Barnett and by Mr..
Nye, for the defense as to knowledge
OF the case and the circumstances
surrounding 1t and Mr.. Smith for the
state as to views on circumstantial
evidence and the exercise of capital
punishment for the crime OF murder.
Under orders OF the court the jury
men selected to try Kethman will be
confined and virtually kept prisoners

However, the instructions are that
the 1irymen are to be made as com

given ample exercise.

BURNED VALUABLE LETTER.
Teacher at Hannah Has Unfortunate
Accident.

Hannah Moon: A young school
teacher in the northern part Of Cava-
lier county had an experience last
week which to say the least places
her in a rather embarrassing position.
The rural delivery man was passing
and having some mail for the home
where she boarded the teacher con-
scented to deliver It. Placing it in her
coat pocket she wended her way to
school and began to light the fire for
the day. During the operation the let
tiers dropped from her pocket and
were thrown into the flames with other
combustable matter. 1t developed
later that one letter contained $50 in
cash, the balance of carload of bar
ley. The young lady feels badly over
the unfortunate incident and has Of
fered to reimburse the farmer for his
loss.

YOUTH IS SHOT IN
NECK BY DRUNKEN
COMPANION
PorfiIio SaIazar, Seventeen
Year-0Id Boy, Narrowly ES-
capes Death at Hands of
Juan MaCiaS.

Porfilio Salazar, a seVenteen-year-
old boy who lives with his parents on
West Tijeras road, narrowly escaped
death at 1870 o'clock yesterday after
noon, when Juan Macias, twenty-siX
years old. shot him through the fleshy
part of the neck, barely missing a
vital spot. Macias fired at Salazar
with a .3S calibre revolver. The bull
let entered from the side and ploughed
through the muscles and tendons'
lodging near the spine in the upper
part of the shoulder. The wounded
bow was carried to the office of DIR. w.
G.. Hope. who extracted the bullet and
dressed the injuries. According TO Dr.
Hone Salazar is not seriously injured
and will recover. Macias was arrest
ed by Policeman Knapp Immediately
after the shooting and will be kept in
the city jail pending a preliminary
hearing. Macias denied all knowledge
of tho shooting. No trace of the re-
volver was found and it is believed
that Macias threw it away after the
trouble. Several persons witnessed
the shooting and have been clted TO
appear in court when Macias is given
a hearing. The shooting occurred at
the corner of Fourth street and TlJeras
road. while Salazar was on his way
home. According to Salazar, Maclas
was intoxicated and attempted to en-
gage i'm a fight with him. Salazar,
however. according to his WI story
refused to accommodate Macias with
q fistic duel. whereupon Macias drew
a revolver and fired at him.

WORK BEGINS ON
TWO NEW BRIDGES
OVER RIO GRANDE
MISSOURI COMPANY ON
GROUND WITH MATERIAL
Camp is Pitched on West Bank
of River at BareIas and Work
Starts at Once on Big Co.
ment Piers.

The foremen and construction men
Iron company, which holds the con-
tract for the two new county bridges
across the Rio Grande at Barelas and
Corralles, arrived in Albuquerque yes
terday and at once began preparation
for commencing the work of construc-
ton. The cement which is to be used
in building the huge cement piers
which will support the Barelas bridge
is already on the ground and the iron
will begin arriving within a day or
two.
1t is the intention of the construc-
ton company to begin both bridges
as soon as possible and to push the
work right along, as the contract calls
for the completed structures by April
/, 1910.
The construction camp was pitched
Yesterday on the west bank of the
river at the M of the old Barelas
bridge. The new bridge is to go In
about -four feet south of the present
one so that traffic yer the old bridge
will not be obstructed.
The first work will De the sinking
of the piling, which will go down to
forty feet below low water line. This
will then be surrounded by a half
inch steel cylinder, which will be sunk
to thirteen feet below low water line
and filled with cement. The result
will be a solid cement, steel-cased
pier which will be strong enough TO
resist any assault of the river even
at times of the strongest flood. There
will be sixteen of these piers. support
ing as many spans of iron. The struc-
ture will be not only the most Xpen-
sive but it is believed the most dura-
BILE and satisfactory bridge in New
Mexico. The CorraIles bridge will be
of practically the same type. The
county pays for the two bridges a
total of $S1,S00, The work will be
done under the supervision of County
