FROzE To DEATH
Or MURDERED?
Mystery Surrounds Death of
Manuel Pacheco Found
in Creek
FOUR BOYS ARE ARRESTED
District Attorney Refuses Re-
quest Toilet Them Out
on Bond.

Did Manuel Pacheco, who had been
seen drinking Thursday night at a sa-
loon at Chamisal, and whose body was
found frozen in a creek a few hours
sfterward, with marks on the head
sugg esting desperate struggle, meet
mis- death from blows on the head dur
ing drunken brawl, or did he lose
his footing and falling into the water,
freeze to death?
That is the question that is being
asked since the finding of his body
and the arrest of four of his COM
panions, Maximilian Sanchez, Melton
Sanchez, Felix Muniz and Manuel Du-
ran
These boys are said to have taken
part in drinking bout with Pacheco
and now they are locked, up in Jail
without bond at Chamisal near Penas-
co, Taos county, following a hearing
before the justice of the peace.
Bias Sanchez father of the Two
Sanches youths, and Manuel Muniz,
father of Felix Muniz, arrived in San
ia Fe today to ask District Attorney
E c. Abbott to let the boys out on
bond. 1t is said they made plea that
the youths had nothing to do with
the death of Pacheco who is supposed
to have been drinking and to have
frozen to death as result of his fall
ing into the creek on cold night.
District Attorney Abbott however
saw no occasion to set aside the rul-
ing of the justice of the peace and if
the boys are taken out of Jail it will
be through habeas corpus proceedings

HORSES STILL VIE WITH
MOTORS IN DUKE CITY.
Bruce Williams Says Horsemen, as
Well as Chauffeurs, Get in The
Tolls for Speeding.

The chauffeurs now have the laugh
on horsemen in Albuquerque accord
ing to Bruce Williams. the well known
liveryman who has just returned from
the Duke City and who was much
amused to see two tender feet riding
horses led by two coppers who were
enforcing the speed law by arresting
the offenders, horses and horsemen.
But for all that, the sport of rid
ing horses seems to be very popular
in the city named after that great
horseman and warrior, the Duke
d'Albuquerque. The buzz wagons get
over the ground and the dust down
there with great frequency and great
rapidity but there are plenty of horse
lovers who raise the dust. Certain it
is the horseshoers have no occasion
for alarm at the loss of job

WARM PRAISE FOR
CITY OF TUCUMCARl.
Judge McFie Says Its a Hustiing
Burg Filled With Useful
HifizenS

Judge John R. McFie returned last
night from Tucumcari where he had
a very pleasant and busy visit. Speak
ing of his trip there the judge said
today: "This was my first visit to Tu-
cumcari and 7 found hustling bust
ling little city, with large number
of substantial looking brick and stone
buildings, and up-to-date business
men. 1t is surrounded by a large
farming country which has suffered
like other parts of the country from
a dry spell but is still able to hold
it's own.
Tucumcari has a large new hotel
under construction or about to be put
under construction and everywhere
there is sign of boom.
"As regards court work the grand
jury was in session five days and re
turned A true bills and % no true
bills, making 66 cases in all during
a five days session. This is indicative
of the class of good business men in
Tucumcari and that the new district
attorney, Harry McElroy had the
cases well in hand and has made an
exceptionally good record"
Judge McFie said that he disposed
of all the business that could be
reached while he was there but that
as three lawyers were absent to at
tend the constitutional convention tc
which they are delegates, certain cas-
es could not be heard and an adjourn
ment was reached by agreement until
December IL when court will be re
sumed by Judge Wright.

AERONAUTS IN
GRAVE DANGER
May Have Dropped Into One
of Canadian Inland
Lakes
LOST IN FREEZING WILDERNESS
Exposed to Bands of Rowing
Wolves and Other Wild
Animals.

New York, Oct. 24.--The gravest
fears are expected today for the safe
ty of Allen r. Hawley and Augustus
Post who started from st. Louis
week ago today in the balloon Ameri-
ca II, in the international balloon
race and thought to be lost in the
wilds of Quebec, far from civilization.
Edmond Stratton. an intimate friend
of Mr. Hawley, left for Quebec today
and will direct the search for the
missing ballonists. If the America
has escaped the dangers OF descending
on any of the inland lakes, the areo-
nauts still face serious hardships of
forcing their way through the path
less forests of the now freezing north
through which rove bands of wolves
and other wild animals.
Last Seen in Michigan.
st. Louis, Oct 24.-The balloon
America II, last seen over Thompson
vile, Michigan, last Tuesday after
noon, was headed north, according to
message received this morning by
the Aero Club. 1t is the belief OF the
club officers that the America may
have landed somewhere in Georgia
bay and this point will be searched
first by Lewis Soindler, who has been
sent to Canada by the club to make
the search. This section is the wild
est kind of a wilderness. and the
aeronauts will have great difficulty in
getting back to civilization.

st. Louis, Oct. 24.-The Hudson
Bay Company has telegraphed that
all its trappers at its outposts are ad'
vised to look out for the missing bal

Mexico and United States TO
Keep Cattle In.

a means of stopping smuggling, as
was reported.

INDIANS MUST
Be EDUCATED
E. P. Holcomb, High Official
of Interior Department
Is Here
MAKE GOOD RED MEN FIRST
But They Must Get Their "Read-
in, 'Ritin' and 'Rith-
metic'"

TO devise a way to make Indians
OF this part OF the country attend
some school. government or private,
and thus get that education which will
make them first of all good Indians
that is the mission of Z. P. Holcomb,
Of the department of the interior and
who arrived yesterday from Washing
ton. Mr. Holcomb is a high official of
the bureau of Indian affairs and he is
recognized as an authority on the
needs of the Indian of the west.
Mr.. Holcomb has been in Santa Fe
city. He transacts his business with
rapidity, however, and soon he will be
on his way home. He had confer
ence this morning with Francis c. VIII
son, L. S. attorney for the Pueblo
Indians and this afternoon he will
have an important interview with
Clinton ]. Crandall, superintendent Of
the U. S. Indian Industrial school.
Although he does not say much
about the nature of his work, Mr.. Hol-
comb gave a short interview to the
representative of the New Mexican.
He admitted that an effort is being
made in the direction OF procuring
compulsory education for the red man.
ut is desired to make him attend
some school, get some education
said Mr.. Holcomb. I'VE believe that
the Indian needs education just as
other people need it; we want to see
him get it and if he does not attend
our Indian schools we would like to
see him attend some school,
Mr.. Holcomb is one of those high
officials in Indian affairs like Francis
c. Leupp, formerly head of the In
dian bureau who does not believe that
educating the Indian, and making a
good q. S. citizen of him can be en-
tirely accomplished by Immediately
depriving the red man of his blanket
full of colors of barbaric splendor,
shaving off his long hair and making
him wear shoes with a high heel on
lhShi' ilS peiltNGS tldl tllt SlIOI ID VI
the department should be put forth to
make the Indian FIRST of all good,
lawabiding Indian, and to do this he
must get education. 1t is cheaper and
better for Uncle Sam to make good
citizens of his wards than to fight them
and if the Indian can be brought to
realize that he has to go to school like
any Tom, Dick or Harry, or Jimmy
and get his three RS down pat, long
stride toward making good Americans
out of good Indians will have been
taken.
Not on WetheriI Case.
Mr.. Holcomb was asked if he had
any statement to make about the in
vestigations made by the department
of the interior in regard to the muir
der of Richard Wetherill by Navajo
Indian this summer. He replied that
it is true the department had made
an investigation of the conduct of GER
tain officials who have been connected
directly or indirectly with the case,
but that there was nothing to be
made public. When asked about GER
tain statements alleged to have been
made about a unique system of col
lecting debts originated by 'Dick"
Wetherill. the official smiled but
would not discuss the subject
