Washington, March 10. Because

much discussion during the pendency
in the senate of the resolution to va
cate the seat of Senator Lorimer. Mr.

in error in sending out from Washing

SAVING THEIR MONEY

Money that ordinarily would go for
licorice, ice cream and all-day suck
ers, is being diverted from the well
grooved channel to the candyshop by
the members of the Las Vegas patrol
of the Boy Scouts of America. The
Scouts are saving up their money fo-
the trip to Santa Fe county and the
cliff dwellings, which will be made
early in June. The trip was to- have
been made early this monthabutT bad
weather prevented. The party to have
been taken was to consist of but ten
members, while in June it is likely as
many as thirty will go. Scoutmaster
George Fitzsimmons has made all the
plans for the trip The trip will cost
each of the boys in the neighborhood
of $12 and they are denying them
selves many pleasures in order to
get the money.

WASHED ASHORE
LUCkLESS AVIATOR WAS DROWN.
ED IN ATTEMPT TO CROSS
ENGLISH CHANNEL

Ostend, Belgium, March 15.-A
body was brought to the surface in
this harbor yesterday, which is
thought to be that of Cecil Grace, the
aviator, who was lost last December
while attempting return aeroplane
flight from Calais to Dover. Although
greatly disfigured, the body is said by
those who examined it, to have the
appearance of that of the luckless
English aviator

J. A. Grace of New York and a
nephey of ex-Mayor w. r. Grace.
He was a member OF the Royal Aero
club, and in an attempt to win the
Baron De Forest prize of $4,000 on
December % flew over the English
channel from Dover, reaching the
Belgian frontier. He was turned back
by adverse winds and after landing
near Calais started on the return trip
across the channel.
He was never heard from again,
btu his cap and glasses were picked
up in the north sea, off Mariakerke,
Belgium, on January and later what
was supposed to be the wreckage of
his areoplane was found near the
same pla'"e.

WATER IN cAMFIELp DITCH

The main ditch leading to the site
of the Camfield dam on the Las Vegas
grant is filled to a considerable depth
and the water is running in rapidly.
The water is being used by o. B. I'm
derwood, who has the contract for
the construction of the dam, in soak
ing the earth into position. A con-
siderable quantity of water is neces-
sary for this purpose. The earth is
hauled in on the dummy trains and
dumped and spread on the dam site.
Then it is given thorough wetting.
which causes it to settle into place
and become firmly fixed. Were the
dam already completed. judging from
the amount of water that could be ad-
mitted this spring, the reservoir would
be filling up rapidly.

terest to western shippers was decided
yesterday by Federal Judge Lewis,
who held that a railroad could not
charge local and transit rate on live
stock which was fed and watered en-
route on an interstate journey, where
the shipper already had paid the
through rate. William B. Bishop of
Monte Vista, Colo, shipped seven cars
of sheep from Pendleton, Ore, to Kan
sas City. At Pueblo the cars were
sent to Alamosa, where the stock was
fed and watered, and then the jour
ney was resumed. The railroad sent
Mr. Bishop bill for the extra trip
to Alamosa and he refused payment.
The court sustained him.
