CHRISTMAS SNOW IS
SOON GONE...HNE
WEATHER NOW

Typical New Mexico weather re-
turned to Quay county the first OF
the week after almost month of
cold and stormy time. At several
previous intervals during the last
month old Sol had shown his face
but for a short period only bad
weather returning.
The spell Of bad weather seemed
to have been broken when the Sc
we're snow storm Of Christmas even
ing broke into a bright Christmas
day. Reports from the neighboring
states to the north and east show
that one of the worst storm periods
in the history Of those sections have
been experienced there showing
that New Mexico has Jared well af-
ter all. The snowfall Of the oath
was the heaviest so far seen this
season in northeastern New Mexico,
amounting to several inches of wet
snow practically all Of which sank
into the soil gladdening the hearts
OF the farmers. In town the streets
have about regained their dry APP
pearance commonly seen in the Sun
shine State.

CONDUCTOR S|LvERNA|L
DROPS DEAD WHILE
MAKING REPORT

While making the report Of his
trip from FL Paso 10 this city, Frank
Silvernail. one of the oldest passen-
ger conductors in the employ of the
f.. =. 4 s. w. on this division, drop
ped dead about $40 last Friday
night. The tragedy occurred in the
mems waiting room at the railway
station, Silvernail having just re-
turned from his room on Second
street. The train on which he had
arrived was several hours late and
he had eaten his supper before max.
ing his report. Friends say that he
had shown no signs Of feeling i'll but
apparently was in good health.
A stranger who was present at the
time of death helped to remove HE
collar and tie and when some time
later il was discovered that the con-
ductor's diamond pin was missing a
search was made for this stranger
but when he was found, no trace of
the diamond was on his person and
he was allowed to depart.
Silvernail was rather of robust ap.
pearance, ard nearing sixty years of
age. HIS home was in FL Paso
where his family survive. Mrs. Sill
vernail came to Tucumcari Saturday
and returned with the remains for
burial which took place in FL Paso
Monday.

HAS A BIG
WHOLESALE BUSINESS

Wholesale shipping is becoming
mere and more part of the sue
cessful business Of Tucumcari, a
number of local firms already hav-
ing built up quite a list of outside
buyers to which names are constant
ly being added. So gradually has
this growth taken place that even
the wholesale dealers hardly were
aware of it until the invoicing Of
their books during the last few
days has made it known.
A local grocery states that more
than two thousand pounds of mer-
chandise was sent out on one day TO
Union county alone. One shipper of
poultry has sent out thousands of
pounds of chickens and turkeys dur
ing the past month or two, the mar
ket being active for such supplies,
especially during the holiday season,
although the demand remains heavy
during the most Of the year. Eggs
have proven an important item of
the shipping produce of the county
and during the last summer was a
big source Of funds to the county
farmer.
Two cream buying stations have
been stationed here during the sum-
mer in addition To numerous agents
located over the county at the vari-
GUS smaller towns.
The shipment of ice from the Tu-
cumcari factory forms "a growing in
dustry for the city, car load ship
ments being common thing it is
reported. Tucumcan supplies a
large part of the surrounding coun-
try with this commodity and the de-
mand is increasing.
Coal for large part Of the coun.
ty is supplied through the city the
supply reaching Tucumcari from
| the Dawson mines To the north.
The local grain merchants who are
doing a wholesale business report
the shipment of large quantities of
maize and wheat to the eastern mar.
kets. During the summer and fall
wheat especially has been active and
the demand is increasing. Several
cars of broom corn have been sen,
out from the county during the last
week alone. The wholesale ship
ment of cattle has become an estab
lished industry which is we'll known
to the surrounding country, this in
dustry being better known to the
merchants of the big markets
than to the local residents Of the
county.

COLUMBIA WINS BIG BOAT
RACE, WITH PENNSY SECOND
Cornell Finishes in Third Place After Wonderful
Rowing Contest on Hudson
River

From the very start it was evident
that in considering the Quakers as dark
horses in the race the dopesters did not
go far wrong. Penn took the lead at
the start. rowing thlrty-elsht stroke
to CornelIs forty and forty-tWo for
Syracuse and Wisconsin. 1t was expect
ed that Columbia would seek the lead
at once. but they contented themselves
with thirtyfour stroke and were well
in the rear. Penn continued to lead as
the race wore on. Columbia gradually
drew up toward the front and challeng-
ed Cornell. These two in turn then
went after Pennsylvania, but the Quak-
ers were not forced to go higher than
thirty-four to hold first position. The
men rowed in magnificent form and the
comment was that if they could only
hold that pace there was indeed hope
for a glorious Red and Blue night in
this old burg, which has not seen Penn
celebrate since 1900.
At the half-mile mark Penn was right
out in front, but the hard rowing OF
the Ithacans drew them up on even
terms at the mile mark. Columbia had
rushed past Syracuse and washington
and was only one-fourth length behind.
Syracuse had weakened under the strain
and was four lengths to the rear, with
Washington pushing hard for the place.
BY that time Wisconsin was as good as
out of the race and never figured from
that time on.
1t was expected the Columbia would
be in the running up to the last, but
when it was found that Penn had to be
reckoned with great shouts of surprise
and slee We're heard. IF these fellows
can only hold out what a great race 1t
will be-, was the remark heard on all
sides. No one would have wondered If
the Penn crew had weakened. but In
entering the last and crucial mile of the
race Penn rowed with a supreme mastery
of the. stroke and kept it's nose ahead
of Cornell, which could not break away
from Columbia. Then came the last
dash. the final half mile The coxswains
called for more speed, and all respond
ed. Thirty-six was the rate hit up, and
under that high pressure something was
sure to happen. Cornell was the first
to break.
Their boat could be seen to gradually
fall behind and Columbia to forge to the
fore. That condition held for a minute
or two, and the shout went up. Cornell
is beaten" Strive as they did, the Itha-
cans could not advance; they could not
even hold their own. They rowed as a
Cornell crew has seldom been called upon
to row, but it was no use. They made
no mistakes. none of the crews did. The
form was almost perfect. but the power
Pennsylvanians held on to the very last,
and it was only very close to the line
that Columbia went past them amid the
greatest demonstration seen in these parts
for many a day.
1t was all over in nineteen minutes and
thirty-seven and four-fifths seconds, but
in that short interval the principals and
the onlookers seem to live for years
1t was a nerve-racking struggle and
every one needed relief from the tension
under which they had been.

BASE BALL BRIEFS,

The interchangeable George Moreland
has compiled a little volume giving the
age, height, weight and other statistics
of more than 400 ball players. From it
we learn that Frank Bancroft, the dean
of active base ball men, is sixty-eight
years young.
1t is interesting to note that not one
hit, one-hit and two-hit pitching staff.
Scott. Benz. Cicotte. Faber and Russell.
has won more games than he has lost.
1t might be inferred that consistency is
wanting on the part of the pitching
stars, but a more reasonable explana-
ton is that a necessary adjunct to win
ming pitching is group Of run pro-
ducers.
The Chicago Americans have released
Charles QuarderS to the Chattanooga
club of the Southern League. He is a
pitcher picked up by Manager Callahan
last fall from the semi-pro ranks
Pitcher Matt Zeiser, recruit. who
has been with the Boston Red SoX, has
been turned over to Toronto. in the In
ternational League. Last year he was
with the Lowell New England League)
team.
If the St Louis Browns win the Ameri-
can League pennant Manager Branch
Hickey will take them all up in the woods
Of Michigan for a hunting trip. If they
win the worlds series he will take them
around the world.

day to witness the double-header, this
was reported as the largest weekday
crowd of the year. The attendance here
has been very weak this season, and
there are reasons for it.
To begin with, the American League
Park is not easily accessible Mack al
lows his players to drag the games out
for hours, and the public has tired of
this and is patronizing the National
League because the games are rushed
through The biggest mistake imagin-
able was made Yesterday when, after the
first game had been forfeited, Mack
caused it to be announced that the sec
ond game would not be called until 800
o'clock. That meant that the crowd
would have to wait an hour before it
could see the days program. which was
marred by the forfeiture. finished many
people got up and went home and few if
any came in later. Some one said that
the reason for the delay in the second
game was that the park help had been
engaged at extra pay for the double
header and Mack wanted them to serve
their regular time.
Immediately after yesterdays game
John Henry sent a wire to Ban johnson
protesting against the continuation of
Chill and Sheridan as umpires In games
in which the Nationals play. Henry did
this on his own accord.

ARGENTINE PRESS ELATED.
Newspapers at Buenos Aires En-
thusiastic Over Mediation Progress.

BUENOS AIRES. Argentina, June 27.-
ALL the newspapers here comment in
most enthusiastic terms on the success
of the mediation conference at Niagara
Falls. La Nacion says the solution
reached in the dispute between the
United States and Mexico could not be
better, and adds:
1.-The United States has set a grand
example to the world and has won the
respect of the nations by the
equanimity and spirit of justice with
which she has comported herself under
the circumstances.
The newspaper concludes: The result
of the mediation conference forms a
fresh tie between Argentina Brazil and
Chile
La Prensa considers the solution
reached by the mediation conference a
real triumph for pan-Tmerican di-
plomacy."
SANTIAGO, Chile. June 27.-Great
qualification is expressed by the Chilean
newspapers at the work of the mediators
at Niagara Falls. Congratulations are
showered on those who conceived and
proposed the idea of mediation.
