Bar Association. In order to equip
himself better for the practice of law
before the Federal Land Offices, the
subject of this sketch took course
in surveying and was shortly after
completing the course, offered posi-
tion with the U. S. Geological Survey,
at that time engaged in making sur.
veys in the Mesilla Valley, prelimin-
airy to the commencement of work by
the Reclamation Service on the Ele-
phant Butte's Irrigation project. At
ter acquiring the practical experience
! with the level and the transit that he
desired, Mr.. Wade entered his fathers
law office and, after years close ap-
plication, accepted the position of Of
fetal reporter of the Sixth judicial
district under Judge Edward A. Mann
with headquarters at AlamogordO.
The friends he made there are le-
gion, and they are among those most
enthusiastically endorsing him for the
position for which he is mentioned.
Mr.. Wade has not only visited every
, Part Of New Mexico, but he has trav-
eed extensively from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and from Mexico to Cam
! ada, which in addition to his legal
training, his journalistic experience,
| his technical education in land mat
/ ters and his fluent pen, make him an
ideal candidate for the work of in
ducing desirable homeseekers to To-
cate in the territory and in giving
! them the advice, help and instruction
necessary for success.
Mr.. Wade is of pleasing appearance
and address and makes friends read
, lily. 1t is therefore not surprising
that he has received almost unani-
nous endorsement from the members
of the legislature, the Republican lead
ers, prominent business and profess
sonal men and host of well-wishers
from every part of the territory and
| beyond.
Mr.. Wade was married early last
year to Miss Avis Mary Hall of Ha.
warden, Iowa, and Mrs. Wade is with
him in Santa Fe where she has found
entree in society circles and has be-
come quite popular. The New Mexi-
can feels certain, that if the legisla-
ture should create the position of COM
missioner of emigration and Governor
Curry should appoint Mr.. Wade to it,
| that the people will be well served
and the commonwealth will have
every reason to be satisfied and proud
of its commissioner of emigration.

Old Point Comfort, Va, Feb. o.
With homeward bound penants
streaming far. behind them, twenty
eight bands Playing the Star Span
gled Banner and saluting cannon,
roaring a tribute to the President of
the United States, the battleship feet
OF the American navy ended its world
cruise today. After steaming in re-
view before the president, whose
eagle-crested flag of blue was at the
mainmast Of the yacht Mayfower, the
sixteen white battleships finally cast
anchor in the same water of Hampton
Roads whence they had started four
teen months ago on journey of 45,-
900 miles. The joy of homecoming
was written upon the face of every
blue jacket and every officer on board
the ships. The long cruise, the visits
to many Of the most famous ports OF
the world and the homage that was
paid the fleet by every nation favored
on the calling list, have been sources
of intense interest to everyone aboard
the famous vessels, but unquestion-
ably there was no scene in all the
world to compare in beauty with the
familiar land marks viewed by the
crews and officers of the battleships
as they steamed through the Virginia
Capes and entered the peaceable wa
ters of Hampton Roads. Thousands
upon thousands of people gathered
here from all parts Of the world and
lined the shores in spite Of the rain
which began falling at o'clock. For

SOCIETY EVENT
OF THE SEASON
Climax Of Many
Legislative Social
Functions
RECEPTION At PALACE HOTEL
Given bv Acting Governor
and Mrs. Nathan Jaffa
Saturday Evening

When every social gathering is
called brilliant society event and
every card party is a most delight
full" affair, it is difficult to character
ize adequately, the elimination Of a
seasons social gaieties made espe-
cially notable by the presence of
many distinguished visitors, the splen-
did decorations, the strikingly smart
gowns, and the air of social enjoy
ment that kept the guests from first
to last, although, as a rule, even in
hospitable Santa. Fe, a reception
means the constant coming and going
of guests. The legislative reception
given by Acting Governor and Terri
torial Secretary Nathan Jaffa, and
Mrs. Nathan Jaffa, on Saturday
evening Of last week, therefore occu-
pies a different plane from that to
which the society reporter applies the
few limited superlatives and descrip-
tive nouns that must do service again
and again in describing the
many pleasant society functions
that make Santa Fe so de-
lightful capital to the stranger
within its gates as well as to those
brought here by Legislative and gov
ernment business.
The reception was given at Athe
Palace hotel, which was ablaze with
lights from portico to roof. In the
large reception room, which easily
holds four hundred guests, the motive
Of the decorations was furnished by
the proximity OF Washington's birth
day anniversary, and both in general
plan as we'll as detail, these were most
harmonious and beautiful. The center
piece, so to speak, was large Amer
lean flag made of electric lights, red,
white and blue, which, dazzled by
their brilliancy, and recalled vividly
the words of the poet:
"When Freedom from her mountain
height
Unfurled her standard to the air,
she tore the azure robe of night,
And set her stars Of glory there;
she mingled with its gorgeous dyes
The milky baldric Of the skies,
And striped its pure celestial white
With streakings Of the morning light"
On the walls were draped huge flags
and across the ceiling We're swung
long garlands Of American flags In
terspersed with twinkling red, white
and blue electric incandescent bulbs.
"A large portrait of Washington was
conspicuous in the dining-room and TO
carry the illusion still farther, there
were cherry trees with red, ripe, lus-
cious appearing cherries, which
formed the foreground at one end of

the celebration by the University Of
Pennsylvania of Washington's birth

long after he had taken his seat. The

The train was crowded with pas
sengers bound for Hampton Roads to
witness the homecoming of the bat

were standing on the main track and
the heavy train crashed into them
with terrific force. The combination

dfews was called to Senator Aldrich
in the room Of the finance committee

gate to let the statehood bill 90 over

Aldrich promised to support it, but

sisted upon statehood at this session.

General II. II. Bingham, the father

any member (Speaker Cannon not ex-
cepted) namely, 80 years, and reelected

ator Andrews, in the presence of your
correspondent and numerous others,
and said: Senator Andrews | want
to congratulate you upon the passage
OF the statehood bill by a unanimous
vote in the House of Representatives
1t is an unprecedented occurrence in
the thirty years OF my service in the
House. | am pleased that ! had the
great pleasure to assist you by voting

cheer"
Foraker Determined.
Washington, Feb. Ex-senator For
aker, according to a story current to-
day, proposes to take the heroic means
of forcing the Senate to pass the bill
giving separate statehood to Arizona
and Now Mexico. He proposes to ask
the Senate tomorrow to dis
charge the committee on territories
from further consideration of the bill
and bring the matter squarely before
the Senate itself for vote.
If, as has been demonstrated, there
is majority of the Senate in favor
of the statehood proposition, Senator
Foaker will succeed or at least he will
demonstrate whether or not the ma
jorty is sincere in its protestations by
giving it chance to act.
It is possible that when this propo.
sition of Senator Foraker becomes
known to the committee it may force
stand by the committee upon the
bill one way or the other. Even if
the report of the committee were adj
verse the Senate could override the
act of the committee by substituting
the bill itself for the unfavorable re-
port and SO forcing a vote upon the
bill. Senator Foraker would natur-
ally assist in either of these plans.

REPORT IS
MISLEADING
AND UNTRUE

A misleading report in the Chicago
papers yesterday was to the effect. that
because of the fact that Gary now be-
ing absolutely dry. that the nillwork-
ers had cashed $4,000 worth of checks
in the South Chicago banks after the
bi-weekly payday.
Whether the story was aimed TO dis
credit the Gary banks or not in the
face of the facts it appears ridiculous.
On last PAYDAY the Indiana steel com
pany paid out s13s.516.17. Figures in
the Gary State bank, which is consid-
cred the steel company's bank, show
that more than 100000 have been
cashed in the Gary banks. and that
not more than $1,000 worth of checks
were cashed in South Chicago banks
In fact, only $2,1OO have been accounted
for from the South Chicago banks, ant
more than $4,000 worth of check;
seemingly have not yet been casheC
at all.
The story in the Chicago papers wal
evidently written with the motive tx
show the millworkers absolutely re
fuse to trade at home if they coulC
not have their blind pigs and dives
1t was not only a reflection on tn
mfllworkers but was absolutely untrue
as the figures in the Gary State banl
! will show.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 17.-Robert
J. Alley. state superintendent of public
instruction, says the schools Of the
state of Indiana have recently lost six
teen of It's best educators, who have
gone to other states where conditions
were more attractive. He says this is
caused by several reasons:
First other states offer better pay;
second, Indiana develops her teachers
more rapidly than most other states;
third, the teachers of Indiana are not
knockers, but they never fan to boost
a fellow teacher, when another state
wants him.
Mr.. Alley deplores this fact. but he
| says it is true, nevertheless. that 9th
er states lure our best teachers away

the anti-salson men will be liberal

So overwhelming is the sentiment in
Gary for licensed saloons that there
were only two business men in the
city who could not be induced to sign
it. These were men who thought that
they could not afford TO express their
opinion either way because it might
hurt their business. They are also men
