Washington. d. c., Jan. Am a
special message on conservation
which the President will possibly
send to Congress on Monday, a loan
of thirty millions to complete the ex-
listing reclamation projects will be
suggested. The western senators who
have visited the president during the
last few days have been given to un-
derstand that sucn a loan will be rec
onmended. The loan will probably
be fioated on short term bonds or GER
tifcates of Indebtedness.
Another change in the presidents
program of special messages to con-
Sress was announced at the White
House today. 1t was stated that the
message on the Interstate Commerce

nitting all papers and reports in the
matters concerning CLAWS against
Secretary Ballinger The President
had intended yesterday to send in his

hn haf hn
ed for the black deed is the fact that
Musgrave was indicted by the grand
jury of this county, some two years
ago, for cattle stealing, and has been
on the dodge ever since. Parker was
a witness against aim. Taking it all
together it is one of the blackest and
most da1nnable murders that has been
committed in the Territory of New
Mexico in years. 1t is the hope of ev-
cry good citizen that the perpetra-
tors will be cauglt-taey will do the
rest.
1t is supposed that Musgrave is
one of the gang who aeld up the a
and p. train at Rio Puerco, and the
White Oaks-San Antonio stage.
The remains of Parker were bro't
to town, e-nbalmed and will be laid
to rest tomorrow morning
A reward of thousand dollars has
been offered for Musgraves capture
by citizens. He is about 90 years,
has dark hair and eyes. rather hand
some, is six feet higl weighs about
$50 pounds, and his riglt leg springs
in at knee when standing or walking.
George Parker, the victim of this
young outlaws vengeance, has been
a resident of the county for several
years. He was appointed deputy by
Sheriff Atkinson four years ago and
served during his term with faithful
ness and efficiency; was popular with
the cowboys, and loved by all good
citizens who knew aim.

concertos of Braasn, Beethoven,
Tschalkowsky, Spohr and Viotti have
unique charm and radiance. The
immortal works of Saint-Saens, Ba

inspiring in the light of his intelli-

A Young Mother and the Fat Hog
Not Fable; Simply Straight
GnndS

One time a little mother, who was
only twenty-five years old, began TO
feel tired all the time. Her appetite
nad failed her for weeks before the
tired feeling come. The three little
ii Is, once a joy in her life, became
a burden to her. 1t was Mamma,
Mamma" all day long. She had ne
Yer noticed these appeals until the
tired feeling came. The little mother
also had red spots on her cheeks and
a dry slight cough. One day, wnen
dragging herself around forcing her
weary body to work, she felt a slight
but sharp pain in her chest, her head
grew dizzy and suddenly her mouth
hlled with blood The nemorrhage
was not severe but it left her very
weak. The doctor she had consulted
for her cough and tired feeling pre-
scYibed bitters made of alcohol, wat
or and gentian. This gave her false
strength for awhile, for it checked
out her little reserve. When the
hemorrhage occurred, she and all her
neighbors knew she had consumption
and the doctor should have known it
and told her months before.
Now she wrote to the State Board
of health and said: 81 an told that

Of little mothers from consumption.
At present the only place you can go

asylum after you are dead, and then
in a few years, a special officer will

The state cant afford it," So the little
mother died of the preventable and

the orphan asylum.
A big fat 1log one morning found

squeeled loudly and the farmer came
out of his house to see what was the
matter. He's got the hog cholery,"
said the hired man. So the farmer
teIegrapned Secretary Wilson of the
II. S. Agricultural Department (who
said the other day he had 1900 ex-
perts in animal and plant diseases)
and the reply was: Cert, I'll send
you a man right away. Sure enough
the man came. He said he was a
