Interest at Once Awakened
When this Famous Region
is Mentioned.

What is il that makes the Dem

any other part of the world re-
marked an eastern gentleman to
w. s. Clark. who recently returned
from an extended trip to the Allan
tic coast, and of course it was up to
W. s. to deliver the goods, which
he proceeded To do in his usual pro-
per manner.
The same or similar questions
have been asked other residents OF
Demng or Luna county, or people
who have recently been here, in
every section of the country, and to
90 outside of the U. S., the GRAPH
lc has received inquiries from Italy
and Germany and the secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce refers
to an inquiry he has just received
from France. in his column this

Looks Good to Deming.

II is stated on good authority
that an offer Of 81 200 600, made
by the Phclps.Dodgr people for the
Chcmung mines at Tyrone, in the
Burro Mountains, has been accept
cd and the final papers transferring
the property were made at II meet

this month. 1t is said, the Phelps
Dodge people will at once begin
mining operations at both Tyrone

portation of ore will construct Il
railroad from Tyrone to Demng,
there to connect with the FL Paso

by the Phelps. Dodge syndicate.

All Will Have to Irrigate.

An interesting development in
the irrigation field is the spreading
eastward of irrigation practice into
the regions of sufficient rainfall, or
what is known as supplementary ir-
rigation. As one authority writes;
1T will not be long before irrlga-
,ion is as common in New York and
Massachusetts as in New Mexico.
Indeed il must come to that or the
humid states will he compelled to
90 entirely out of the business of
crop raising, fer the productions of
the soil in the irrigated regions are
20 enormous that the humid or rain
farmer will not he able to COM
pete" The purpose of supple
mental irrigation in the humid re-
gions is to remove the element OF
chance to which all farming is sub
iected that depends solely upon
water precipitated from the clouds
Investigations show that even where
the rainfall is as heavy as 30 or Al
inches, it has paid to irrigate; the
increase in crop yields ranging from
75 to $50 per cent. and in some
eases as high as lS0 per cent.

Some Freight Train.

There is really nothing too big
for Dcming. Agent W. $. Clark
reports this week the arrival OF one
train of freight cars, in charge of
Condr. Geo. A. Foster, consisting
of 81 loads, a total of 4O7l tons.
This is undoubtedly the heaviest
freight train ever consigned to this
station, and only goes to show how
important we are.

Stockholm was the reputation of
the United States as nation of
"kidders."
One of the most amusing and ef-
fectivc of the many good-humored
stunts pulled off at the expense Of
the foreigners was executed by n
part of the Yankee trap.shooting
team. Before the day of the
match, j. X. Graham, with Hall,
Lyon and Billings, other members
Of the trap team, went out to the
shooting grounds for practice
hour. The party was trailed by a
number of members of the Russian
trap-shooting team, who were
anxious to get a line on the Yankee
brand of craftsmanship. Hal!

gested to Graham that a little

ITALY MAINTAINS RIGHT

who captured them on the French steam

The conferences are said to have been
very cordial but the Turks are still un-

Italy maintains her right To capture aH4
search ships OF neutral nations suspected
of carrying cuhtraband of war. This has
been the course followed not only with
French steamers, but with British, Ger
man and Austrian vessels. 1t is pointed
ont that other nations have acted SINH
arly in recent years and that Italy is
ready TO submit the eases to The Hague
tribunal and pay an indemnity if am er-
ror has been committed.
But italy does not admit any limta-
tions of that right. 1t is her intention
to protect her army before the enemy So
far as the Italian authorities will speak,
the examination of the Turks in question
seems to have proved that both doctors

object of their presence was to distract
attention from others. who are believed
to be Turkish officers, inasmuch as they

fact that another alleged Red Crescent

composed of belligerents.

from an oVer-heated carbon motor
Immediately AN alarm was given and
the hospital fire. brigade responded
and did effective work, keeping the
flames we'll in hand until the Dam
vers fire department reached the
scene. Salem sent q steamer and crew
of firemen to assist in fighting the
fire. The efforts of the entire force
succeeded in preventing the blaze
from spreading beyond the tower
where it started, although for a time
it was feared that adjoining buildings
would be burned.
Soon after the fire was discovered.
the nurses and attendants hastily
awakened the sleeping inmates in the
section and they were marched into
another building, The patients caused
no trouble and quietly made their
way from one building to the other.
Those removed comprised the inmates
who were demented but not violent
and all were men. The GOODNESS of the
nurses and guards helped consider
ably in keeping the inmates quiet, and
they were told that there was no
serious danger The loss to the build
ing was principally from water and
smoke, the tower only being burned
