SERIOUS RloTiNG IN LISBON,
PORTUGAL. MANY HURT.

Lisbon, Portugal, Feb. 27.-The car
nival celebrations held in Lisbon this
week, resulted in serious rioting and
a number of encounters with the pol
ice, during which numbers of the peo-
pie were more or less seriously injur-
ed and 200 arrested. Precautions TAX
en- by the authorities were successful
in preventing demonstrations early in
the month on the first anniversary of
the assassination of King Carlos and
the Crown Prince, but the people took
advantage of the carnival time to in
dulge in the manifestations they want
ed to make three weeks ago. The as
sassinations were repeatedly enacted
at various points throughout the city
by persons made up to represent the
late king and crown prince and the
regicides, while groups carrying cot
fins containing skeletons to represent
King Carlos and the Crown Prince,
gave a representation of funeral pro
cession to the accompaniment Of
blasphemOuS songs. When the police
attempted to stop the scandalous pro-
ceedings, they were met with volleys
of stones and had to make free use of
their reyolvers and swords. Finally
the troops had to be summoned, as
the situation got beyond the control
of the police. Women aided the riot
ers by throwing missiles from the
windows.

The 'Parsonian Lodge was the
scene of delightful thimble party
Friday afternoon, when Mrs. DR.. Tin
der and Mrs. A. L. Keener entertain
ed in honor of their mother, Mrs. E.
P. Horr, Of Denver. About thirty Ia
dies participated in the guessing con-
tests, and in the embroidering of
memory pillow for the guest of honor
Mrs. J. r. Fay being the most sue
cessful in the flower contest receiv-
ed a bunch of violets, while Mrs. o.
2. Finley won the silver thimble in
the work basket contest. The house
decorations were beautiful, the color
scheme being lavender and white and
showed artistic taste in the arrange
ment. A threecourse luncheon was
served by the hostesses,~ assisted by
Miss Velma Perkins, which was a sue
cess. Mesdames Tinder and Keener
are newcomers in Roswell, but have
made host of friends by their genial
dispositions and attractiveness, and
have the gift of making one feel en-
tirely at home. Mrs. Horr has made
many friends during her short stay
in Roswell, who hope she may return
to make her future home in the Pecos
Valley.

DIR. ALEXANDER TOLD
OF WASHINGTON CITY

Last nights lecture, of the school
lyceum course, was one of the most
interesting and instructive of the win
ter. 1t was given at the Presbyterian
church and the building was crowd
ed. First telling of the political form
alton and geography of the District
of Columbia, DR.. Alexander then told
of the plan upon which the city is
built and it's streets laid out. He then
took up the many interesting build
ings of the city, its institutions and
distinguishing features, such as the
departments of the government, the
city's superb railway depot, etc.
The Introductory part of the even
ing's program, contributed largely by
public school students, was excep-
tionally good, the numbers being pia-
no duets by Winnie and Ruby Bean
and Marie Kinsinger and Catherine
CahoOn, piano solo by Marie Lewis,
vocal solo by Josephine Murray, read

in box car at San Luis Obispo a few
days ago, boarded the car at Ell Paso.
Texas, and not at New Orleans. 1t is
believed the contraband band was
smuggled across the Rio Grande at Ell
Paso and with the connivance of some
railroad official obtained access to a
bonded car. An investigation is now
in progress in the Ell Paso district,
and arrests may follow. All of the
Chinese have been examined by Com
missioner Van Dyke and ordered de-
ported.

London, Feb. 27.-Women suffra-

vertise their cause. They gathered in
force this morning outside the hall
way of the Jail to welcome three of
their number who had just completed
a term of Imprisonment for trying to
interview Premier Asquith. The pro-

where breakfast was given the mar
tyrs. Another raid on the House Of
Commons is promised for March 80,

GANG CORRUPTION
KILLS STATEHOOD

Washington, Feb. 27.-There
will be no statehood legislation
for New Mexico and Arizona at
the present session of Congress
At a meeting of the commit
tee on territories today, all
members, regarless of party, in
a sensational scene, abandoned
consideration of the house bill.
The members of the commit
tee left the room without any
one suggesting further meet
ings. This remarkable action
occurred at the conclusion of
reading statements presented
by Senators Nelson and Bever-
idge charging corruption, jury
,bribing and various other Of
fenses against certain officials
and leaders of what is termed
the gang who control the po-
litical affairs of New Mexico.
Among the statements re-
ceived was a telegram from
J. j. Hagerman, of New Mex
leo, reflecting upon the char
acter of the people who are in
control of political affairs in
that territory, and declaring
that these men expect to con-
tinue taeir control after the
territory becomes a state. He
referred to them as free
-booters," and says sixty per
cent of the voters are Mexi-
cans and one-half that number

Mrs. Ellen @. Baker is Dead.

Mrs. Ellen O. Baker, aged Sc years,
died last night at 1O:3 80 at her home
on North Union avenue after a linger-
ing illness of tuberculosis. She was
brought here by her husband eleven
months ago for her health, but the
change in climate was made too late.
Deceased leaves a husband and three
children. The funeral will be held
Sunday morning from the home and
burial will follow in the South Side
cemetery.

lily could be governed by the
gang" to which he referred.
He suggested that it would
be well to wait until after the
next census before admitting
New Mexico to statehood.
Another statement was read
recounting the difficulties expe-
rienced by Ormsby McHarg,
who went to New Mexico in
1907 as representative of the
department of justice to prose
cute land frauds. The state
ment declares that McHarg
was hampered in his work by
Governor Curry and the at
torney general.
A number of indictments
against territorial officials were
read, as was a letter from w.
F. Wilcox, a former newspaper
man of Santa Fe, wlo asserts
that his life was threatened
and he believes the threat
would have been carried out
had he not left the territory.
1t is extremely likely that the
committee will conduct an in
vestigation before acting on
the admission bill.

cARMAcK MURDER
TRIAL PROCEEDINGS

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. 27.-The
Carmack murder trial proceeded this
morning without a decision of the
court on the admissibility of evidence
offered by the state to prove that the
Senator did not anticipate trouble
with the Colonel, but armed himself
to satisfy alarmed friends.
The cross examination of T. Leigh
Thompson was continued until later,
but he was questioned on other
points. He said there was a pail Of
smoke hanging over the city from a
forest fire the afternoon of the shoot
ing and it was too dark to see a block
away. The purpose of this testimony
was to show the impossibility of the
Coopers recognizing Carmack a block
away, or for John Sharp to see the
tragedy in every detail from a dis
tant corner as he had sworn to.
Other witnesses testified that they
heard two shots, followed quickly by
three others. They were sure the
shots were from different revolvers
Governor Patterson took the stand
amid murmur of interest The Jury
was ordered to retire because ques-
tions were to be asked heretofore
ruled out. But we want them in the
record explained Judge Anderson
The Governor told of hunting up
oooP0i OA oilC udy vi Tic SIIOOllUS 3,
the result of a telephone message
from one of his daughters. He found
him in hotel writing a letter, a very
angry letter, addressed to Carmack
and he urged the Governor to send
it. Finally he gave the letter to Jas
Bradford who wanted to make an at
tempt to adjust the trouble.
He did not anticipate trouble. Sub
sequently Bradford telephoned him
there was no danger. Later he was
told of the killing by the porter at
the executive mansion

forward and faced the old lady.

Lady Creech put up her lOrgnette
and stared at him and with a naughty

his feet.
Twice Ethel essayed TO speak, and
twice she put out her hand In his di-
rection. and both times she failed.
Then. with a choking little sob. she
picked up her dress and fairly ran
from the room. Horace followed her
quickly. and still Pike stood there IN
an attitude OF incomprehension.
The point he had striven for had
