DESPERATE DUEL
 FOUGHT IN NEW MEXICO.


 ROSWELL, N. M, July 1.-The de-
 tails of a desperate duel with pistols
 at Dark Canyon Wells, south of
 Carlsbad, between J. F. Hart, engin-
 eer of the Santa Fe railroads pump
 ing plant there, and B. L. Walker,
 farmer of that vicinity, have just
 reached Roswell The men have been
 quarreling for the past year and
 some time ago, Hart, man of small
 stature, applied for an injunction
 against Walker, a man of great phy-
 sique, to prevent the latter from
 using vile epithets toward the former
 and from assaulting him, as it was
 alleged Walker had been doing. The
 injunction was denied, the court a4g--
 gesting that a peace bond was the.
 proper remedy.
 On Monday afternoon the two
 men met near the Dark Canyon Wells
 and a fight with pistols ensued, both men emptying their guns and then
 using them as bludgeons on each
 other. In the fury of the combat
 Mrs. Walker appeared with a rock in her hand, and she helped her hus--
 band in the fight, using the rock as weapon. The heads of both men are badly battered, and although Hart, the little man and lone eombatant. is seriously cut about the head. is not seriously hurt. Walker has two pistol ball holes one a flesh wound and the other through the upper lip, just below the nose, passing back ward and out to the left of the spinal column, without breaking the neck and without necessarily causing death. Both men are heads of res pected families in Eddy county. RIDED MASCOT DEAD.

Saving silo Conservation.

Chicago Live Stovk World.-Much
opposition to the silo process of
preserving winter feed would be eli
minated if the expense Of construc-
ton receptacles was rendered unnec-
essary. An open-air silo at the plant
of the Van Camp Packing Co., at
Martinsville, Ind, does this. At the
Polk Cannery, Greenwood, Ind, the
same system has been adopted and a
&rge wooden silo abandoned. The
change was made when it was dis
covered that the open-air method was
the cheapest.
The secret of success at these
plants is rolling. Heavy rollers, drawn
~ horse power are used until the
ar is entirely forced out of the mass,
which becomes so compact under this
treatment that the mass is sliced with
a broadaxe when used.
At the Polk cannery large dairy
herd is maintained and the cows are
<ied this refuse from green corn
packing in combination with pea hay
all the year round, never going on
