SHOOTING AT
CARRIzOzO FATAL

A man named Harte was shot
by Night Watchman Herring at
Carrizozo Sunday evening. Harte
was brought to the railroad hos
pital in this city, where he died
Monday morning at 8 O'Clock.
Harte and four fellow emplyes
of the Southwestern, were in the
waiting room raising a disturb
ance it is alleged. The night
watchman attempted to quiet
the fracas. Harte led revolt,
and himself attempted to relieve
the watchman of his gun. The
watchman fired at Harte, the
ball piercing a number of vital
organs.
No papers indicating who Harte
was or where he came from could
be found on his person.
He was buried in the city
cemetery by the railroad com
pany.

The destruction of The Lodge
At Cloudcroft Sunday morning
was complete. All the guests
except one woman saved their
effects. This lady was so excited
that she only thought to take a
couple of hat pins with her, leav-
ing all her clothing to burn.
None of the cottages were
burned. The big trees in the
yard, however, were destroyed.
The guests are being taken
care Of in nice shape, the pavil-
lien hcing used for The purpose.
Only twoor three left Cloudcroft
after the fire.
A defective fiue is supposed to
have been the cause of the fire.
Gus Grieggs, head clerk, and
Charles Henson, night watch
man, were the only persons in
jured. Both were painfully
burned but no serious results
are anticipated.

NEGRO SHOOTS
UP A MEXICAN

A shooting scrape in ''Chihau-
hau' early yesterday morning
will result in Tomas Rodriguez
sticking close to his bed for some
time to come.
Henry Bell, commonly known as
Red" negro, went to the
Mexican part of the town about
I o'clock, and attempted to beat
a Mexican woman living III one
of Rodriquez's houses.
Tomas objected to having his
tenants molested by a negro and
started to throw the gent of
color out of the window.
The negro, however, anticipat-
ed the Mexican's actions, and
stopped him with a ball from his
Smith e. Wesson. The bullet
tore away one side of the jaw,
SCATTERING the bone, and leaving
hole that would have done ere
dit to a Mausser ball.
The negro made his getaway
and was still at large last night.

ADVANTAGES OF INCORPORATION
The advantages to be gained
by Incorporation are the same
that have been gained by New
York and every other Incorporated
town or city in America. If in
corporation has been beneficial
to these thousands of towns and
cities there must be some strange
and marvellous reason that would
cause this rule to work disad-
yantageously in our case.
THE QUESTION OF WATER
As an illustration, every man,
woman and child pays tribute to
a foreign corporation for every
drop of water used.
The water system should be
owned by the town. We would

day with his son, and took his
daughter home with him.
Roy had $500 on his person
when he was arrested. He told
the officers that he had nearly
$400 when he left Corona.
This money was stolen from
Mr.. Potter by the girl, who was
influenced by Roy to commit the
theft.
Miss Potter is a pretty little
girl, and was in short skirts.
Until the arrest she had not
seemed to realize the gravity of
the situation in which she had
been placed by her designing alb

SOCIAL COMMIT
TEE MAKES GOOD

The social committee appoint
ed by the Business Mems Club
held a meeting Saturday even
ing and audited the receipts and
disbursements of the dance June
8 and the smoker rendered the
old soldiers. 4 The receipts from
the dance amounted to $65.65.
The expense of the smoker was
5000; dance $3.50. A balance
of $28.85 remains in the treasury
of the committee.
From the above statement it
will be seen that the social COM
mittee is not. disappating any of
the funds of the Business Mems
Club, as the Advertiser of last
week intimated would be done.
The dance was a splendid So
cial success. MIR. Brounoff do
mated the use of his theatre for
the evening, and the light COM
pany donated the lights.
The committee will report to
the Club at its first meeting, and
if its work is endorsed other af-
fairs will be pulled off.
