SCHOOLS OPEN
SEPTEMBER 5

The Estancia public schools will
open for the fall term on Monday
September 5. The school board
has secured the use Of the build
ing of the Church of Christ as an
additional room, until the new
school building can be completed.
Mrs. Julian Tuttle will have
charge of the beginners and the
first grade; Miss Emma Parret
the second, third and low fourth
grade pupils; Miss Minnie Laws
the high fourth, fifth and sixth
grades; Miss Zella Roberts the
seventh grade. All grades above
the seventh will be arranged be-
tween Miss Roberts and Mr.. Rus
sell, the principal.
1t is the intention this year to
carry at least three years of High
School work, if the demand calls
for it, which it no doubt will, Es-
tancia schools have always been
in the lead of the county schools
and will be kept there if hardwork
and enthusiastic interest on the
part of the teachers and school
board will do it. Parenrs are
urged to keep in close touch with
the pupils, especially as regards
visiting the school and seeing that
their children are prompt and reg
ular in attendance, The teachers
have always shown not only a will
lingness, but a desire to take up
any matter regarding the better
ment of the school with the par
ents and will be glad to do so this
year. The News predicts the best
term of school Estancia has ever
had.

Col. William Mcintosh, re-
publican candidate for delegate
to the Constitutional Convention,
accompanied by his campaign
managers, Fred Fisher and Mr.
Nye, of Mcintosh, were in the
county seat Monday. They ordered
a lot of cards of the News Office,
giving the Colonel's platform,
along with the announcement Of
his candidacy. Should any OF
these cards fall into the hands Of
the powers that be" at Santa
Fe, the Colonel is liable to be
read out of church, as his plat
form is not of the so-called safe
and sane kind, but includes
the initiative and referendum,
and some rights for the people.
The standpatters are not making
their beds with the insurgents,
even if the people are.

day to answer a charge Of kill

had been trailing a bear, when
the shooting occurred. Mr.. Mart

fifty dollars, which is the min
imum penalty for the offense.
Mr.. Martins companions say
they were not out for deer and
in fact had not thought of seeing
any, but were close on the trail
Of a bear. When the buck jump

Estancia Wednesday on his way
to Santa Fe on business. He ex-
poets to join the Republican spell,
binders at Moriarty today. Mr..
Gallegos says that everything is
working out in a satisfactory man,
ner for the Republican victory in
the Spanish American precincts
of the county. He said that Es
tancia would have to give the
Democratic ticket at least zoe
plurality to give their ticket any
show in the county. In fact,
friend Gallegos seems to think il
is up to the other fellow to do the
worrying.

Postmaster N. D. Meyer
came down town Wednesday
morning, taking the middle
of the street, as apparently
the sidewalks were too mar
row. When he got his breath
he made the merchants un-
derstand that he wanted to
borrow a pair of scales. AT
last he found a pair which be
said were large enough at
Tuttle's Hardware Store. AS he
was streaking back up the
street, Dee Robinson asked
what he wanted with such
heavy scales, and Nick called
back, "to weigh the new post
mistress" Grandpa and Crane
ma Meyer are wearing the
broad smile, but Grandpa anC
Grandma Green haven't yet
been heard from.

|0LD TIME
SPELLING BEE

A spelling match between the
teachers attending the County
Normal and the citizens Of Els
tancia was arranged for Tuesday
night. Sides were chosen but ii
WASH t long until it was a one
sided affair. Nine of the teachers
were still standing when the
last of the citizens got the hook.
The first misspelled word was
'elopement' a young school
marm going down on this. After
ward she received a Dictionary
as a consolation prize. This may
help some, but proper under
standing of the word could be
brought about only by the use
of a moonlight night, a guitar
and a handsome young man.
However we do not wish to
criticize Mr.. Burt as he doubtless
did the best he could in obtain
ing prizes.
Miss Laura Young and Miss
Luran Nisbett were the real con-
testants for first prize. These
young ladies could reach into
their mental alphabet and ar
range a group of letters to fit
any word that was asked for.
Many of the words, strangers to
us, the young ladies handled as
if they had raised them in their
back yards. Miss Young finally
won first prize by spelling par
allel', which she did without
batting an eve and with one
hand behind her back. Superin-
tendent Burt then surprised the
audience by producing a hand
some silver tea pot, which he
presented to Miss Young.
The whole affair was a very
pleasant one, greatly enjoyed by
the large number present.

DURAN HIS
$1,000 ( FIRE

| Duran, N. NJ, Aug. 24.-A very
destructive fire occurred in Duran
causing an estimated loss of
$1,000, of which one-half is cover
ed by insurance. The Duran
Trust and Savings bank, City
meat market, Mark Robinson
rooming house, and a vacant
store building being completely
destroyed and Sanchez Bros,
company slightly damaged, as
the result of the blaze.
The fire apparently started in
the City meat market building,
and tand the adjoining buildings
being of wood were soon con-
sumed, there being no time for
the volunteer 6remen to save any
of the contents, and il was only
by very heroic work that Sanchez
Bros. and Company's building
was saved, after tearing down a
small frame structure by the side
| of the building.
The Sanchez building being of
stone, the wind in a favorable
direction, and fast work of volun-
teer firemen, is all that prevented
this building from going with the
rest. At one time the entire town
was threatened, and it was very
fortunate that the wind was low
and from the east.
The estimated losses and insur-
ance follows: Duran Trust and
Savings Bank loss $1,000, insur-
ance $1,000, their vault is in ap-
parent good condition; City meat
market, owned by Roy Snodgrass,
loss 81, 500, insurance 5000: Mark
Robinson, household furniture,
$500, no insurance; r. A. Doss,
owner of building occupied by M.
Robinson, 5000, no insurance; w.
E. Jeffries, store building, 81 900,
no insurance; Sanchez Bros. and
company, damage to goods in re-
moving, $500.
The Duran Trust and Savings
Bank opened its vault yesterday
afternoon in the presence of the
president. H. B. Jones, of Tucum-
carl; cashier, H. S. Holloway, and
a large number of onlookers, and
everything was found in perfect
condition.
Cashier Holloway had a narrow
escape during the fire, He en-
tered the front of the building in
an effost to save his adding ma
chine, and about the same time
someone broke open the back
door creating a draft which al
most overcame him before he
could get out. The bank has Sc
cured temporary quarters and
will conduct business as usual,
and will erect mcdern fire proof
building to take the place of the
wooden structure destroyed. The
only effects saved were Cashier
Holloway's typewriter and Office
chair.
