possible, where living conditions are
better. The country schools are
always left with the largest proper
Iion Of young, inexperienced, poorly
trained teachers.
Mr.. Kellog urges also that the
teachers cottages or as he calls
them, teacheTages. should be mod.
els of sanitation artistic, though
inexpensive, and so constructed
that they may lie not only homes
but real social centers for the rural
neighborhoods.
In order to further this plan oI
properly caring for the teachers,
the lumbermen's organization is
ready TO prepare plans to assist
rural communities in providing
their teachers with the kind oI
homes which have proved saiisfac
tory in Washington and in th,
other more scattered localitiei
where they have been built
New Mexico has been selected a.
one OF the first states for lhe gener
al introduction OF this idea OF
teachers's cottage for every rura
school, because Of the special need
OF this state for rural education.
"Ono pla,e is trying the teacher
cottage plan this year. II is I
serious problem in this State il
many districts" says the u. S

Manufacturers association, in the
prop sal to build home Cor every
rural school teacher in America.

but work on this philanthropic
enterprise is already under way
and the association plans to have
its plans ready for announcement in

The plan to spread the gospel Of
homes for school teachers over the
and was first broached only few
weeks ago at conference of the
directors of the association. 1t
proved instantly popular. The
idea was taken up by the United
States Bureau Of Education, and
the first result Of this cooperation
between the lumbermen Of the
nation and the government itself is
in the issuance OF brochure entitled

Alleged Murderer of N. B.
Brown Will Consume the
Entire Week
CASE GIVEN TO JURY LATE
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON

The entire week OF the District
Court has been taken up with the
trial Of the State against Joan T.
Kimmons, who is charged with
murd .ring NapoleDn B Brown
near Corona last spring. Monday
morping the jury WAS selected
without any delay and the court
has made very rapid progress with
this case. The arguments were
completed yesterday afternoon and
the case given to the jury at s
o'clock, but up to press hour they
have been unable to reach YER
dict.
The case was brought here on q
change Of venue from Torrance
County where the killing took
place.
The state Ia being represented by
District Attorney ii B Hamilton
and is assisted by Judge w W
GAiewood OF Roswell. while the
defence is being conducted Ivy Col
Geo w. PIichard OF Santa Fe.
This case grew out Of dispute
arising between Kimmons and
Brown over fence line along
which The deopased had workmen
chopping wood
According TO the testimony OF +.
W. Allen, the only eye Witness to
the killing, Kimmcns and his wife
came to the point pf the killing,
Mrs kimmons with shot gun aud
her husb band armed with revolver
aud were talking to Allen about
being over the line when Brown
came up, A heated argument was
engaged in and The killing followed
In addition to Alien the state
used Mr.. Marble surveyor, as a
witness A very ,horough account
OF the details Of the cnse leading
up to the killing was given 10y
Allen.
The defence began their case by
the introduction of witnesses and
plats AS to the different lines ia
question, aud especially the one IN
controversy between the tracts of
Brown and kimmons, after which
the defendant was placed upon the
stand aud gave his version of the
difficulties leading up to the killing
aud his conversation and that oi
Brown ut the time Immediately be.
fore The fatal shooting, Ills tesli,
mony contradicted that of the
witness, Allen, In several material
instances, regarding the distances
of the different parties at the time
OF the shooting, and the position.
relatively of Brown and Kimmon.
Just before and at the time lh,
shots were fired. Kimmons iesi
fed that the deceased, was wit d
about three steps with the a,
ed above his head and com
him rapidly when he shot a. 1 kill
Brown; and on being interrogatec
by his counsel as to why he shot
stated that he was afraid he would
be cut down or killed by Brown
with that axe, as he had 1t drawn
and was coming a. him when ht
fired to save himself from being
killed This plea OF self-defencl
has been indicated throughout the
