GUN SHEDS WILL BE
BUILT FOR BATTERY.

Since it has been decided that the
old skating rink was not sufficiently
safe for the storage of the equipment
of the Roswell Light Battery, the
equipment being Government proper
ty and not being subject to insurance,
Capt. NJ. S. Murray has been in
quandary as to what he would do
With the property, unless he puts it in
the Armory. When this possibility
was mentioned to a knot of leading
citizens yesterday, they voted at once
that no such thing should happen, as
it would rob the city of it's biggest
and best public auditorium; and they
gave Capt. Mlrrray assurance that
steps would be taken at once to have
gun shed built. Tle move for the
gun shed will be started at once. The
Battery now has an enrolment Oh
nearly one hundred, and the list is in
creasing daily. bunch of business

FOR A DAYLIGHT TRAIN
DOWN THE PECOS VALLEY.

James +. Hinkle of the railroad
committee of the Roswell Commercial
Club. is authority for the statement
taat a daily daylight passenger train
down the valley can be secured IL
The people of Roswell and the Valley
viii make a united pull for 1t. Al the
ligher officials of the railroad COM
pany have recently visited Roswell
and from them it has been learned
that such a train could be made a
paying proposition and would probab-
v be granted if the people show that
aey would appreciate and lend their
patronage to such an Improvement.
1t is suggested that the train would
leave Roswell at eight O'Clock in the
morning. reaching Carlsbad before
noon; and leaving Carlsbad between
TWO and three O'Clock in the after
noon, reach Roswell at six p. m. Such
4 train would be of great value to the
trade of Roswell and the people of
the entire valley. Another sugges
tion is that possibly a gasoline train
could be put on. This train would be
one made up of motor cars, the same
as have become SO popular on inter
urban and branch railroad lines in
the east. The gasoline passenger
cars are the same as street cars, ex-
~ept that they develop the speed of
steam cars. They are easily stopped

He accommodation of local traffic.

Labor party today, President James
keir Hardie threw cold water on all
suggestions that the Laborites in the
forthcoming parliament should be the
blind followers of the government. He
said:

hope to see us bring about our OWE

ment. At all costs and hazards we
must maintain complete freedom OF

suddenly became quiet.
The attorneys for DR. HYDE have
advised him not To testify" said Mr..
Walsh slowly. I'VE do not care for
him to testify here and therefore he
must decline to be sworn.
After a hurried conference between
DR.. Zwart and prosecuting attorney

DIR. Hyde be sworn. The latter's at
torneys persisted in their refusal and
DIR. Zwart sat down.
Then Mr. Conklin. with a newspap-
