DELIGHTFUL MUSICALE
 BY MISS TROTT's PUPILS
Large Crowd of Relatives and Friends Greet Young Performers at
 K. of p. Hall.

The vocal and instrumental pupils of Miss Nellie Trott, the well known music teacher of this city, gave a delightful musical last evening in the hall of the Knights of Pythias. The affair was exceptionally well attended. as it was also exceptionally well given. Every available seat in the hall was taken and there were some who stood in the vestibules to see and to hear.
 With commendable foresight the program was so arranged that the little folks in the class were given an opportunity to show off first, before the evening became very late or they got very tired. This was both pleas ing to the parents and friends as it was to the little folks themselves. The program got better as it went along. The second part was taken up entirely with the renditiOns of the appreciated by the large audience. It closed with the delightful The Night Has Thousand Eyes" (Emery) sung by an accomplished female quar- tet, and the every popular "Kentucky Babe" with it's whimsical melody and delightful humming refrain. This was easily one of the most popular pieces on the program.
 The entire program was rendered as follows:

had looked for resumption of last Sat urday's strong active market. Open ing prices reflected a degree of ir- regularity which soon turned to heavi- ness. Varied conditions and develop ments offered explanation for the days movements. Chief among these were the absence of any definite news in connection with the Southern Pacific and Union Pacific dissolution pro- ceedings Another deterrent factor was found in the protracted open ses- sion of the United States Supreme Court whose deliberations continued long after the markets close.
 As a partial offset of these fea- lures there was an increase of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit dividend from five to six per cent on an an nual basis. Trading relapsed to minor proportions in the afternoon at the recurrent heaviness in leaders and abrupt proportions in the afternoon at the recurrent heaviness in leaders and an abrupt seven point advance of Virginia Carolina preferred.

A RAISE FOR
THE SUFFERERS

Estancia, N. M, March 90
The people of the Estancia valley
have rendered quick and effective
aid to the flood sufferers in Ind
lana and Ohio by collecting and
forwarding at once, carload of
New Mexico beans for which
this valley is famous.
At the prevailing price of beans
this is a handsome donation and
in addition it gives a sustaining
and valuable food product to the
stricken people.
The beans were contributed
from all parts of the valley and
this prompt response to the ap-
peals of the flood sufferers re-
fleets great credit upon the peo-
pile of Estancia who believe in
doing good and at the same time
in adding to the prestige of New
Mexico's title 'The land of the
bean. Santa Fe New Mexican.

LIBRARY ASSOCIATION
MEETING

At called meeting of the
Garnett Public Library Associa-
ton Saturday afternoon at 3
o'clock, March 29th, there were
ten members present. The men,
bers of this association are those
who have donated books or mon
ey to the Library. Mrs. Garnett
was chosen Chairman. 1t was
announced that the associa ton
was organized for the purpose of
giving to the public the use of
the books and magazines belong
ing to it but on account of the
library not being in public
location it was not patronized.
The Woman's club has offered to
take charge of the Library and
keep it open regularly, so a mo-
tion was carried that the
Woman's club be given the re-
sponsibility of caring for the
property of this Library until
such time as better place be
found. Mrs. Parrett, Mrs. Gar
nett and Miss Parkell were voted
a committee to make shelves
for the books at the Woman's
Club rooms. This Library was
founded by A. H. Garnett in
1907 and it is the hope of his
son that he may be able to erect
a Memorial Library building for
his father. 1t is hoped that
the public will be interested in
this work that the women have
undertaken and will give all the
help necessary to make it a sue
cess.

THE NEW TAXATION

| AS our readers no doubt have
observed, among the many
things interesting and otherwise
which the legislature did in the
closing hours of the recent ses-
sion, was to rush through a bill
/ tinkering the taxation and as.
sessment laws, which is now in
force.
In some respects the new law
appears at first sight to be an i'm
provement over the old.
1t is quite voluminous, but the
clause which is Of greatest imme-
diate interest is one which pro-
vides that all property shall be
listed at actual value, and one
third returned for taxation.
Reference to the proceedings
of the Board of County Commits
sioners published in this issue
will show that the Board has
promptly complied with the new
requirements, and it seems to
us, exercised good judgment in
fixing a basis of valuation for
the different classes of property.
Some weeks ago we published
a list of the corporate property
in the county as returned by the
State Board The valuations
there given were said to be the
actual value of the property list
cd. Assuming that this is cor
rect, under the new law those
valuations will be divided by
three, and the valuations for tax
alton will be as follows:
N. M. C. R'y S 200, 400
Eastern R'y of N. M. 1.106, 100
E, P. g. R. l. R'y 322. 320
Duran roundhouse 1888
Pullman Car Co. 1902
West. Union Tel Co 11,250
Wells Fargo Exp 36
Tel Co LILO
Estancia Savings Bank 6,363
Tor. Co. Savings Bank 5,346
Total $1,668, ,620
Last year the total valuation
of the county was in round num-
bers 81, 100000. 1t is certain
that there will be a substantial
increase this year in property
on the tax rolls other than corpo-
rate, and although last years
included the N. M. G.
and the banks, it is reasonably
safe to estimate that the total
valuation for taxation will be
So, 900, 900 or more. This will
permit substantial reduction in
the tax rate.
