to attend the Negro Minstrels,
who .sgave a highly entertain

That the "dusky ones' are not
to be outdone goes without say
ing. The large audience, which
crowded the building was kept in
an uproar throughout the even
ing, and sense and nonsense
made the evening pass all too
quickly.
The people of Silverton are
to be congratulated on their en-
terprise in the way of entertain
ments, and that instead of sit
ting at home growing old, they
keep young by social gatherings
of various kinds, where all enjoy
q hearty laugh.

6OndItt COmlnQ Back

In a letter from w. w. Conditt
who is at present in the Rio
Grapde valley two miles south
of albuquerque, he states that
EFfAsfrs. ss~I~W West her daughter
and niece, (Hrs. Conditt's mother
sister and niece) are visiting
them. He expects to bring them
over to see the valley and to visit
here as soon as the weather and
roads are such that he can safely
make the trip. He assures us
that he still has plenty of faith
in the Estancia Valley, and ex-
poets to place his farm south
west of town under irrigation as
soon as he is able to do so. He is
we'll pleased with the Rio Grande
valley, and is making a speciality
of fruit and poultry. 1t seems
strange to think that Mr.. Conditt
must wait until the weather is
such that he can safely make the
trip, but should he start and get
caught in one of the rains we
have had recently, with the roads
as heavy and muddy as they are,
his people might not believe New
Mexico. the Sunshine country
it has been described.

Last night the re mnant of that
once powerful and progressive
body of young men, known as the

OF the latest deserter, Earl Scott,
to help him bid farewell in a fit

And quite a few married men
were there to welcome him into
the ranks of of the benedicts.
The Bachelors put up as brave
a front as possible, but a few
more short arm jolts from Cupid
and the Club will be legally dis
solved and hereafter be known as
the Busted instead of the Bache-
lors Club.

CARRIED BY
SMALl, MAJORITY
in COUNTY

The result of election on last
Saturday is the adoption Of the
constitution by a majority of
about twelve thousand. A great
number of voters cast their bal
lots in favor of the constitution
although the document was not
to their liking, believing that they
would not get another for some
time to come, and practically
everyone is in favor of statehood.
In Torrance county three pre-
cincts gave majorities against
the constitution, Estancia, Abo
and Mcintosh. The figures as
given out in advance that Tor
rance county would give a MAORI.
ty of from 400 to 600 in favor of
the constitution were cut to less
than half. By precincts the re-
turnss are as follows:
