0BAR TO HAVE MA(ADAMIzED
STREETS IN NEAR FUTURE
New Mexico Land q lmmigra-
ton Co. to Spend $4,000
for improvements

As has been often before stated
in the News, the people OF Obar,
thirty miles east OF this city, have
caught the Tucumcari spirit OF do
ing things. Obar is settled by a
class OF men who know how to
make city out OF a meadow OF
gramma grass. Obar is advertis-
ing and inside OF a year this town
will be the best advertised in the
southwest. Advertising brings
results and that is the secret OF the
rapid strides that Obar is now
making.
A company backed by eastern
capital has been formed and is
known as the New Mexico Land
and immigration company. They
have purchased large portion OF
the townsite as well as several
acres OF adjoining land and claim
that tn ~ are going to spend fifty
thousand dollars for improvements
The company was recently incor-
porated under the laws OF New
Mexico and has already begun to
make good its promise.
Concrete sidewalks are going to
be built around the town and four
blocks through the business section
will he macadamized in the near
future. A concrete works is being
installed and in a saor, time a
large concrete hotel and several
business blocks will be built.
II the railroad company refuses
to build a new depot, the Land
and immigration company say they
will build a good one for the town.
One block has been set aside Tor
the erection OF handsome school
building and another block is to be
made into a park. The company
has also agreed to give six lots in
three different locations Tor the
erection oil three churches.
Three thousand lots have been
placed on the market and are be.
ing sold very rapidly. All who
have visited Obar since the COM
pany was incorporated predict a
! -onderlu! future Tor the place.

Actl.e work on the grade oil the
Tucumcari and Memphis railroad
is now in evidence all along the Inc

Tie and rail LAYERS have been
idle since the seventeenth OF the

Vega is one OF the most flourish
ing towns along the line, and is
the camp headquarters ior the con.
tractors from the other end OF the
road. This week thirty-seven
bunk and boarding cars filled the
side tracks. The stock Yards are
full OF big mules which are to be
used further west on the grade.
All the work is not being done
on the east end OF the road, how
ever. Near Tucumcari, what was
just few days ago the grazing
fields OF cattle is now the scene oil
hundreds OF grading teams. Fifty
FIVE teams are at work on the con-
struction OF the new grade between
the points OF Endee and San Jon.
Grading teams are about equally
distributed along the remainder OF
the grade,
Contractor Sweeny arrived in the
city this week with one hundred
mules and a general grading out
ft. He will do subordinate
ing from the other contractors and
his out tit will he distributed along
the line oi work. Work in the

NATURE MAKES A DONATION
OF FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS TO QUAY COUNTY
Fifteen Inches Of Snow and About One Inch Of Rain Fell
In This County This Week Everybody Happy
BOUNTIFUL CROPS NOW ARE ASSURED

QUAY county was blessed with a
second hountiful spring snowfall
this week. After hard rain which
lasted some forty minutes last
Tuesday night, snow began to fall
and reached the depth Of fifteen
inches on the level bv breakiat
time Wednesday morning. This
is said to be the deepest snow that
has fallen in Tucumcari in the
past six years, the only deeper one
having fallen IN March OF 1904,
when It was 40 inches on the level.
The snow this week came as a
pheasant surprise party to the peo-
pie OF this city and the country
generally, and shortly after day
break long distant telephone calls
from all over the country began to
pour in telling the people OF the
city that the snow was general
one throughout the county. II
came as a loy To- all aud the people
were every where elated on account
OF 1t.
No cold weather accompanied
the falling OF the snow, as IS gen.
orally the case and overcoats were
hardly wanted except to protect
the clothing from the dampness OF
the snow which seemed TO be ex-
ceptionally heavy with moisture.
Quay county seems TO be the
only section which received gem
eTous amount OF snow this week
and by the time it was deepest here
the depth was only one inch in both
Dalhart and Duran. The depth
throughout the county seems to be
inform, about twenty inches and
San Jon only reported two feet.
The value OF the snow IS beyond
estimation at this time but that II
is worth hundreds OF thousands oi
dollars is putting a very conserVa'
tive estimate on 1t. All who have

SORROWFUL FATHER
WAS IN TUCUMCARI
SEEKING LOST SON
Boy Disappears From Home
and Relatives are Greatly
Exercised About Him

A man living south OF Tucum-
carl Mountain was in the city one
day this week looking for his lost
son, John. John left home about
a week ago and his relatives and
the neighbors are considerably
exercised about him. Several
theories have been advanced as to
his disappearance but none have
been satisfactory and it is feared
that he has fallen victim OF foul
play or has been kidnapped.
The man went weeping to chief
oi police Benson and after the two
had followed every possible clew
without result the chief declared
that there was nothing to do but
to advertise Tor the boy. To the
News Office the two came and the
matter was fully laid before a mem.
her oil the staff.
The old gentleman felt quite re-
lieved after he had told his story
and expressed full confidence in
the result that a News want ad
would have. He said that he knew
that News ads always bring results.
A liberal reward will he given to
any one returning the boy to this
odice.
John disappeared from home
last Saturday night. He is forty
years old and leaves a wife and
eight children. When last seen
he was going through Liberty val
ley and was wearing a pair OF tan
ned leggIns and a white hat.
