AN ENJOYABLE PARTY

Quite the most largely attend
ed and thoroughly enjoyable
social affair, given in Estancia
for some time, was Mrs. Stubble-
fields "at home" on last Friday
for Mrs. Julian TuGtle, who left
Sunday for her new home in
Phoenix, Arizona.
The afternoon was spent in
formally with conversation and
an enjoyable reading by Miss
Faye Horton. About four o'clock
Mrs. Van Stone brought in a
prettily decorated basket filled
with packages and, with a clever
little talk, presented the basket
to the honored guest. The bas-
ket contained remembrances for
Mrs. Tuttle from each guest.
After everyone had signed her
name in a friendship book which
was also presented to Mrs. Tuttle,
the hostess assisted by her son,
Ralph, served coffee and waters.
Although in the nature of a fare
well, the party was nevertheless
quite jolly. There was twenty
five guests present.

The war arrows almost pre-
clude the theory that the man
might have been a hunter who
was killed by the lions in their
den. The Indian guide, how
ever, could not remember of
anyone who was slain there
by a war party. Mr.. Pensinger
believes that the man might
have been a pro slavery or
anti-slavery sympathizer who
was killed in the war Of the
rebellion. About the only
fact to support his theory is
that the gun was of a model
used by many soldiers; both
confederates and federals.
Missing men we're not un-
common at the time when the
cave man probably was killed
and his identity will never be
known, unless Pensinger dis
covers something new when
he returns to the cave.
Pensinger returned to Albu.
querque yesterday. He
brought the rifle with him.
He was offered as much as $25
for the gun, but refused to
part with it.
Pensinger, his wife and the
Indian are going back to the
cave January 2lst. They will
carry electric flashlights, and
intend to explore the cave
thoroughly.
They attempted to smoke
the lions out of the place, but
success. Even plac-
ing a horse at the mouth of
The cave for bait failed, so
Pensinger believes the only
way to get the lions in the
cave is to 60 in after them.

A STORY FOR A
DULL DAY

A rusty musket, an 1855
model, whitening human
bones and a handful of flint
arrow heads, found in the
mouth of a cave in the Man
zano mountains by j. H. Pen
singer, of Albuquerque, are
believed by the finder to be
mute evidence of a tragedy of
the hills.
The find was altogether
accidental. Mr.. Pensinger and
his wife, who were on o hunt
ing trip, jumped a mountain
lion near Isleta. Pensinger
fred and believes he wounded
the tawny beast. Their Indian
guide, Felipe Heron, tracked
it to the cave. They first saw
the animal last Saturday
morning, but did not reach
the cavern where the beast
took refuge until Sunday
morning.
Heron and Pensinger fol-
lowed the lion into the cave.
The entrance was just high
enough for a man to enter
a nd about six feet wide About
thirty feet in the cave they
found the muzzle loader, near
it a pile of bleached bones and
the arrow heads. Heron
said they were war arrows.
Pensinger says the bones are
human. They we're scattered |
about the floor of the cave,
evidently by the lions.
A narrow passage, just large |
enough for a man to crawl
through, leads off at right
angles from the main tunnel
about thirty feet from the
mouth, where the bones we're
'ound. The Indian looked
the small opening.
He saw several large lions in
here in the dim light and a
,ub was paving a hard, round
object, probably the skull of
he man whose bones were
ound in the entrance. The
indian fred his rifle and the
lnimals disappeared. Neither
le nor Pensinger crawled
the small opening.
They had only matches to
light their way. They intend
O return with a searchlight.
Pensinger says he discov-
red no trail leading to the
ave, although the Indian be
ieves that it is a lions den
md that a large number of
'easts have their lair there.
1e could hear a number
in the darkness.
The date stamped on the
ock of the gun indicates that
he owner died probably fifty
ears ago. The gun is similar

CEDARVALE
HOLDS RECORD

All mounted police records fol
freak" robberies perpetratet
in the state of New Mexico Of
perhaps anywhere-were shat
tered this mornin5 when Captain
Fred Fornoff was asked to locate
the UPPER FLOORS, inside
ceiling and two miles of wire
fence stolen from house in
Cedarvale, N. M.
When the letter arrived, A. T.
Koch, in charge of the office,
read it twice, then opened a
drawer in his desk and took out
q little looking glass. Finding
himself appearing normal, Mr..
Koch read the letter for third
time and then dictated one in re-
ply.
The letter is from Mrs. E. M.
Arnold and is dated January 2,
1912. It is so different from any
other received that it was decid-
ed to give it out to the press,
with the possible hope that the
floor and ceiling and wire may
he "arrested -
This is the letter:
Fred Fornoff, Chief of Mounted
Police,
Santa Fe, N. M.
Dear Sir:
II have a house here that has
had upper floor stolen; also inside
ceiling or sheeting and two (2)
miles of wire fence. Would like
to have you send one of your
men to help trace this lumber
and bring in the parties. My
brother will help find lumber and
wire. Think one of the parties
has gone, but have reason to be-
lieve the other is here yet. Please
let me hear from you at once as
think the party is going to go
soon. Have no officer here.
Wish you would attend to
this matter soon and try to stop
theiving in this locality"
Unfortunately Mr.. Fernoff,
who has had extensive exper-
ience with unique criminals and
who possesses a magnificent
library on criminology, is on his
way to the City of Mexico to ex-
tradite Don Andres Gales, much
wanted chef at the penitentiary.
So Mr.. Koch replied as follows:
January 8, 1918.
Mrs. G. M. Arnold,
"Cedarvale, New Mexico,
Dear Madam:
your letter of the End inst,
relative to property stolen from
you, is at hand. l regret very
much that l am net in a position
lust now to send a man to you,

that if you will notify the sheriff
of your county, Mr.. Julius Meyer

Buried Upside Down.

If Major Labelliere of Dorking was
buried on the top of Box hill, head
downward, in 1900, he probably got
the idea from Mr.. Hall of Leith Hill
place, who in 1857 built the tower on
the neighboring Leith hill and was
buried there six years later. The usual
Leith hill story, as recorded by one
writer, Is that the tower marks the
spot where an eccentric farmer of the
neighborhood was buried on horse
back upside down, so that when the
world was turned, as he believed it
then soon would be, topsy turvey, he
might at last come up in the right po-
sition." The tradition might easily be
transferred from one hill to its neigh
Dor. There seems no doubt, however,
that Mr.. Hall was buried on the sum-
init Of Leith hill.-London Chronicle.

THE BLUE OF TIE SKY.
Il Is Caused by the Oxygen In the Ar
Says a Scientist.


Professor Spring of the University OF
Liege has a theory of his own regard
ing the blue of the sky.
Scientists have tried to explain the
blue of the sky ever since the days Oh
Leonardo da Vinci and Sir Isaac New
ton. Some have held that it was due
TO the polarization of the solar hght'
while others have held that the blue
ness is due to the reflection, or, rather,
the vibration, upon the minute drops OF
water which the atmosphere holds IN
suspension or upon the matter IN the
atmosphere, according to Tyndall.
Professor Spring has rejected all
these theories, denying the dust theo-
ry" altogether. He holds with LORD
Ravleigh that instead of the dust In
creasing the blueness it diminishes 1t
greatly. And according to Professor
Spring, all of the appearances Of blue
tints in the atmosphere are explicable
when we consider liquid oxygen.
Liquid air" is known to be decidedly
blue in color. so the contention that
blueness is due to the oxygen in the
air seems to be substantiated.
If condensed and liquid air are blue
in color it is most probable that the
blueness of the sky is due to the oxy-
gen in it.-New York World.

his head out of the window after at
