FUTURE FOR
THF Plains

1t is interesting to hear tie
secretary of the New Mexi, 0
Bureau of immigration, after a
careful ins pection of the lerath
and breadth of he Estancia val
ley, enforce the opinions Of
others that the underground sup
ply of water under the great Es-
tancia plateau is capable of max
ing that valley one Of the great
est irrigated agricultural sections
of New Mexico The opinions of
government experts and practi-
cal farmers agree on this pro-
position, and there appears to be
a tremendous future for the
plains across the mountains from
Albuquerque through the instru-
mentality of irrigation pumps.
That it will equal or surpass the
famous Mimbres valley, there is
little doubt. All that is needed
is the push and enterprise and
determination which have trans
formed the Wimbres from 9. mo-
squito desert into a checker
board of blooming farms; and
from all indications the very
same spirit which has developed
that rich district is abroad in the
Estancia valley. The men Of
Estancia and Willard and the
towns between are the best type
of optimistic progressive citizens;
they have the utmost faith in the
future of their valley and they
are working and talking all the
time to make it materialize.
The report of the bureau secre-
tary on prospects in the Estan-
cia and Willard county is most
encouraging It is a report in
which Albuquerque is deeply in
teresetd Albuquerque is the
natural gateway to this land of
promise and everything that
benefits the valley and develops
its resources is helping this city
to get business. Albuquerque

Over 5000
cans picked I'D

The offer Of the mayor and
village council to pay cent a
dozen for old tin cans, caused
such rush among the boys of
the neighborhood that the market
was glutted before noon. His
honor, Mayor Stubblefeld, looked
after the receiving of the cans,
either in person or by proxy, and
did a good days work outside
the drug store, During the after
noon business at the fountain
picked up so that they were com
PEELED to call the boys off, until
another day. Six hundred and
seventy-fiv dozen cans were re-
ceived, and as many more would
have been delivered by the Boys
Brigade, had they not been cal
led off. All kinds of vehicles
from the Irishman's buggy to
the two horse wagon were pres
sed into service. Dry goods box
es were mounted on little express
wagons to accommodate as many
tin cans as possible. The boys
made good spending money.
Late last evening the boys were
busy gathering the cans from
the alleys and vacant lots, which
they hid in stables, barns and
sheds, in anticipation of market
on Monday morning. The alleys
and commons will look quite
forsaken without their stacks of
tin cans but we expect to get ac-
customed to it after a few days.
The citizens certainly owe the
and council a vote of
thanks.

DAMAG6 S3,000,000
Fire Discovered near Hell Gate, and Driven
by Strong Winl Swiftly Sweeps Dream
land Of Famous Amusement Park

New York, May rs. ---Coney
Island, the play ground of New
York, had the most disastrous
fire today in its whole history.
"Dreamland" was entirely wiped
out. The moving picture shows,
theaters, summer gardens, the
geological gardens, and the many
attractions are a mass Of ruins,
The loss will be between two and
three million dollars. Over two
hundred buildings were burned
Two thousand persons are left
homeless and penniless. Atleast
one third of the great amuse
ment place is a mass of ruins,
The fire was first discovered in
Hell.Gate, a few minutes walk
from Dreamland. The strong
wind carried the flames quickly
over the whole Of the amusement
park. The Infant Incubator,
Charity Nursery, wherein were
sixty infants and their nurses,
were in the path Of the flames.
The hahies Wern ren1OVed in their
glass cages to places of safety.
All the nurses escaped unhurt.
The Feiiris Animal Show is no
more, A number of the panic
stricken animals, among which
were several maneaters were
taken from their cages by the
keepers, to the emergency vans
between two lines Of policemen
with drawn revolvers. One i'm
mense lion broke through the
lines and through the crowd or
spectators, leaving tr' / OF blood
behind, before it was finally shot
No one was killed, but several
were injured by the beast. AS
soon as the animal was known to
be dead, its carcas was torn to
shreds by the spectators, who
kept the fragments as souvenirs
Sixty to one hundred of the ami
mails were left TO die in the
flames.
There were several narrow
escapes of parties who were try
ing to rescue their property or
assist in caring for the animals,
but all were accounted for later,
except one.

Roswell N. NJ, May 26. =
While making a raid on the resi-
dence of Jim Lynch, bootlegger,
at 5 o'clock this evening in Ros-
well, Roy Woofter, the city mar
shal, was shot through the bowels
with a caliber Winchester
rifle, the bullet entering the
navel and passing out of the left
side of the back. Woofter has
no chance to recover, although
at $50 he is still alive.
Woofter had arrested Lynch in
the business section, and accom-
panied by two policemen went t.
the Lynch home. Lynch evadeC
the officers, slipped in the front
door like a flash, slammed it shut
and barred it. AS the officers
walked around the house there
was a flash from a rear window,
a shot rang out, and the city
marshal fell mortally wounded.
Lynch says the officer was try
ing to break into his house and
for that reason he shot him.
Woofter was able to deny that
he had attempted to break the
window from which the shot was
fired. Lynch was at once arrest
ed by Deputy Sheriff Bill John
son and Clarence Young and is
now in Jail. Policemen Carmi-
chael and Carmichael completed
the raid armed with a search
warrant, and found a barrel and
a half of bottled beer in the
Lynch home. There is intense
excitement in Roswell over the
killing.
