ARMORY IS
DEDICATED
Secretary N. Jaffa
Delivers Splendid
Speech
LARGE CROWD PRESENT
Seventy Five Couples Enjoy
Dance That Last Well
Past Midnight.

Last night the new armory was
formally opened and dedicated. The
first regimental band was on hand
and supplied the music for the oc-
casion. At 8 o'clock the large hall
was well filled with people and short
ly after Secretary Nathan Jaffa was
introduced as the speaker Of the
evening. Mr.. Jaffa made a rather
brief but forcible speech. He spoke
of the great value of having a repre-
sentative National Guard and took
occasion to laud the local boys. 1t
was his desire he said to see the
local guard constantly increase in
numbers and trusted that all possible
encouragement would be given.
When he had finished speaking, the
hall was turned over to the dancers
who were eagerly awaiting the event
In all there were over one hundred
and fifty people on the dancing floor
The hall was gayly decorated with
the national colors and an abundance
of electric lights made the place a
most delightful one. The First Reg
mental Orchestra supplied the dance
music, much to the satisfaction of
those present. The dancing kept up
until the wee small hours of the morn
ing when the happy throng disbanded.

Golden Jubilee of College at Rome
the Occasion for Much Pleasant
Oratorv

Rome, June 1.-THE ceremonies in
connection with the Golden Jubilee OF
the American College in Rome were
continued today with a brand banquet
in the refectory of the college. One
hundred and forty dignitaries of the
church, including cardinals and high
officials of the Vatican, sat down to
the repast.
Archbishop O'Connell proposed the
toast to the United States He de-
scribed the love the people had for
the church and the Pope and especial
ly their love for their country. Riches,
the development of industries and the
spread of commerce, he said, are the
supports of the country, but without
the vital spirit of religion, country
is without a soul. The greatest Sc
curity in Ameril against the dangers
of license, he declared, consists in
the liberty of the church.
Manager Falconi, the apostolic
delegate at Washington, gave toast
to the American hierarchy. He said
that he loved America, because Am
ericas are among the best subjects
of the holy see throughout the wo Id.

NEW MEXICO'S
OLDEST CITIZEN
Leaves Captain, Lincoln County, for
LeavenWorth, Kansas, to Enter
Soldiers Home.

Captain, n. NJ, June 7,-"Uncle
John Ritter, probably the Oldest
English-,peaking resident of New
Mexico, left Captain this morning for
Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Mr.. Rit-
ter arrived at Santa Fe, October 31st,
1S49, nearly sixty years ago, as a
member of the Third L. S. Dragons.
After serving his term of enlist
ment in the Dragons, Mr.. Ritter be-
came an employe in the quartermas-
ters department and was stationed at
Santa Fe, as forage master and cor
raj boss, for nearly 80 years, coming
to Fort Stanton in Lincoln county in
1857. where lie remained until the
abandonment of that post by the
military in 1892; since 1892 he has
resided at Captain. where he has
acted in the capacity of postmaster
or assistant to the postmaster until
a few months ago. For several months
past Mr.. Ritter has been incapacitat-
ed for any sort of work on account of
the infirmities of age and through the
efforts of his friends he has been
admitted to the Soldiers Home at
Fort Leavenworth.
Mr.. Ritters recollections of people
and events during the period of his
residence in the Territory are very
clear and interesting and If properly
recorded would make valuable ad
dtion to the history of the early
f, years of the American occupation OF
our Land Of Sunshine" Mr.. Ritter
is also said to be the oldest as well
as the oldest member of the l. O. O
F. in New Mexico and is member
of the Santa Fe lodge. 1t is quite
doubtful if he ever again sets foot
upon New Mexicos generous soil, but
his numerous friends will ever cher
, ish tender memories of him and drol
silent tear when he shall depart fol-
that home beyond this vale of tears.

THE LAUGH ON
LAFOLLETE
Senate Votes Down
His Twenty.Four
Amendments
NO sA0DDY F(R WARREN
Cummins Warns That Tariff
Will Ruin Republican
Party.

Washington, D c., June 11.-When
the Senate convened this morning
numerous amendments were offered
by LaFollette providing an adyalofem
for specific rates in the wool sched-
ule were taken up for the purpose OF
voting on them EN- bloc as Vice
President Sherman announced. Cum
Minis announced he would vote for
them, not so much because they are
right, but because the finance COM
mittee recommendations were wrong.
At 2:15 this afternoon the Senate
voted down the twenty-four amend
ments to the wool schedule offered
by La Toilette. The vote was A to
80. Cummins argued for the justice
of his plan for compensatory duty on
the products of the wool manufactur-
ers to allow them to pay higher
price for wool than do foreign COM
petitors. He said to levy duty on
goods partly cotton as if all wool,
would give domestic manufacturers
too great an advantage. Warren said
the idea was to keep shoddy goods
out of the country. Cummins said
the Senators were running the party
to let such a wool schedule go out.
President Again Beaten at Golf.
Washington, D. c.. June 11.-De-

Edwards for his partner, the president

ministered to them Wednesday by
John Hays Hammond and Senator
Bourne. The two latter triumphed
again, however, by score of two up.
