40 Hon. Edward Medler. Dis
triot Judge:
"Your grand jury having COM
pleted It's duties, begs leave to sub
nit the following as our final re-
port
The grand jury has been in
session since the 10Th day of Feb
ruary, 1915, with the exception OF
one days recees to permit the au-
ditor to prepare report on the
condition of the First State Bank
OF Las Cruces. During the course
OF the session we examined 158
witness, the total number OF days
allowed 10 witnesses being 175,
and the total mileage paid to all
witnesses being 80, ,l44. We have
returned 80 true bills and IL no
bills.
During tho early days OF the
session, by special report, we re-
commended TO your honor the
appointment OF a special auditor
to investigate rhe affairs OF the

evidence submitted to the
grand jury shows that more than
year ago the First State bank OF
Las Cruces was in a precarious
and practically insol-
vent. 1t further shows the state
travelling auditor had full knowIv
edge OF that condition and of the
character of the president OF the
bank, T. r. II. Smith. 1t shows
the condition OF the bank was re-
ported to and known by the gov
ernor Of New Mexico. The evil
dence further shows that although
tho governor and the travelling
a uditor knew the condition more
than year ago, absolutely nothing
was done by either the travelling
auditor or the governor TO require
the bank to be placed In better
condition financially that although
OF such knowledge as
early as January 80, 1914, no
steps OF any kind or character were
taken by either TO rec.liy salt COZ

THINGS TO REMEMBER If you ARE
LOST IN THE WOODS

A contributor TO the current issue
OF Farm and Fireside calls attention
TO the following things which any
body lost in the woods ought to
know:
II thought every woodsman and
guide knew that by going down-hill
you are sure TO come upon a stream
of water which will in turn lead to
a settlement. furthermore, in our
day nearly everybody depends on q
watch instead of sighting the sun
When the hour hand points toward
the sun the point midway between
the hour hand and twelve o'clock
will be due south.
Another little woodcraft trick Is
that Of carrying a supply Of matches
in a large-mouthed bottle. When
fitted with a tight cork the matches
are sure to be kept dry even though
you have to swim a stream with
your clothes on"

The uniting in holy wedlock OF
Miss Winnie Davis, one Of Berea's
most popular young ladies, and
Frank Roy Of near pittsburg. Pa,

Tor which had been converted into

smiax, banks Of ferns and Of white
lilacs. The ceremony took place be-
meath canopy Of green and white,
the banked background being beau
tifully studded with nineteen lighted
candles representing the age Of the
pretty bride.
Mrs. Charles Burdette skillfully Of
fciated at The piano. and Mrs. Ches-

BASEBALL

The Main Athletic Field was the
scene Of a double-beader in the base
ball line Monday afternoon.
The first game was played between
the Vocational and Foundation De-
partmcnts in which the Vocational
boys scored a victory with the score
OF 6 10 1.
The second game. the Normal
team crossed bats with the Academy
team and this time went down in
defeat, the Academy winning by Q
score Of 10 10 3.
The championship for the series
lies between the Academy and Voca-
tional Departments and bids fair to
be a hard fight as both departments
have strong teams and are jealous for
The final laurels.

Conditions in Servia are pitiable
beyond description. Besides the
desolation caused by several cam
paigns OF the war, hundreds a day
are diving in every city of the ty-
phus fever. a most deadly disease,
while cholera is expected to break
out when the warm weather comes.
The cities are congested with the
Austrian prisoners, with the wound
ed. with refugees from the country
which has been desolated by war.
They have no proper food, clothing
or shelter. The Servian people are
an agricultural population and are
not organized to deal with such con-
ditiOns.
There are but two medical schools
in the country which give instruc-
ton in public health. or sanitation
and Harvard is one Of these. Dr.
Cornelius has been giving especial
attention to this subject. Thus he
felt fitted for the service needed
