AS The Sands of
Life Sht Through
The Hands of Time

The last sad rites were per-
formed over the remains of Cecil
G. Gokey last Friday afternoon
at the K. p. Hall attended by a
vast throng of former friends Of
the deceased. The funeral ar
rangements were in the hands
OF the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen and the sermon was
preached by Rev. Johnson of the
Episcopal Church of which the
deceased was a member.
Rev. Johnson's sermon was
impressive and interesting. He
laid emphasis on the everlasting
truth There is No Death, " and
as life, not death, is mans true
inheritance, we should live neigh
borly, friendly, gently, and hon
orably with all mankind, laying
aside all contentious and contro-
versies over creeds and doc
trines, giving place TO human
kindness and the brotherhood of
man. He paid a high tribute to
the deceased and said he would
want no better text to preach
from than the life of the Christian
gentleman who had gone before
us.
The pail bearers wers Messrs
Ulrick, johnson, Vaughan, Russ
and McCarty. A quintet com
posed of Mrs. Il. d. Boone. Mrs
Jas. johnson, the Misses Hilary
Cooper, Ula Edmiston, anC
Carolyne Roberts sang will
touching effect the following
selections: my Faith Looks VI

Hour" and Beautiful Isle o.
Somewhere. " At the close o
the services, waiting automobiles
conveyed the remains to the 10
cal cemetery, where, after I
short service. they were confined
to their last resting place.
There Is no death.

Carrizozo 6 Alamogordo 2

The soreness" we experienced
by our defeat last Sunday at the
hands of Estancia, was overcome
in a good measure yesterday
when. in a well played
game, Carrizozo defeated Alamo
gordo by a score of 6 to 2. The
crowd attending the game was a
record breaker; Alamogordo GER
tainly backed up her team; a
special train of A coaches came
up loaded to the guards besides
many automobiles came filled
with fans to assist in boosting
the boys.
The game from start to finish
was replete with brilliant ex-
hibitions of good ball playing by
both teams, all of which received
applause regardless of which
team made the plays. The large
crowd which numbered beyond
the 500 mark, was the best
natured of any we can recall.
Alamogordo, while naturally
partial to it's home team, joined
Carrizozo in applauding the good
plays of our boys in which we
reciprocated in Difference to our
neighborly visitors. Nothing of
an unpleasant nature occurred to
mar the f:iendliness of the con-
test and we may rest assured
that "a game played in the near
future at our neighboring city
will only result in cementing the
1 friendship OF all concerned, more
J firmly together. Following is

Mining Talk

Mining talk, like all other talk,
amounts to nothing without
action; the old saying, talk is
cheap, but it takes money to buy
whiskey," may be applied to
manufacturing, stock raising,
farming, mining. etc. What We
are about to say is. it takes
money to develop the mining re-
sources of Lincoln county.
Money properly invested will
bring about projects success
fully carried out. The reason
these ventures of this ma, re
have failed in the past, Is be-
cause investments were not made
to the proper extent. Men have
too often desired quick results
which not appearing according
to their wishes or expectations
rather, have abandoned the
game, leaving the field un-
developed when more money
coupled with the required amount
of patience would. have worked
wonders.
There is no question about
this; experts who have made re-
ports on this locality verify the
statements that valuable minerals
are contained in the neighbor-
ing mountains. Now, this be-
ing true, shall our resources
which we know are here within
reach, remain undeveloped? In
conversation with several of our
leading men of means in this
locality recently, ii was learned
that a movement is now on foot
to organize a mining association,
or mining exchange, composed
of leading men of means whc
will unite in the work of bring.
ing these facts to the knowledge
of parties who are desirous OF
investing money where it will
bring substantial returns. These
residents and business men OF
our county will, it is claimed,
not only invest as an example tC
others, but it is their intention
to scatter the reliable informa,
ton abroad which will be of the
proper benefit to. and to the
justice of, the mining industry

county outlining the different
routes proposed and was follow
ed by other public spirited Car
rizozo citizens who made talks

gentlemen from Socorro county
1t was decided upon that the
best and shortest route would be
from Carrizozo to the head OF
the Nal Pals, thence to Indian
Tank, the Iron Mines, the Hale
Ranch, Carthage, San Antonio
and Socorro. The gentlemen
from Socorro had measured the
distance and it was found to be
81 miles by this route from So

lieved however, by those con.
cerned that the road could be
Strengthened and reduced to rs
miles.
Both Boards of County Com.
missioners went on record as
favoring this route and pledged
themselves to begin work on the
road within the next two weeks,
the Socorro board to notify the
Lincoln County board by the

be ready to go to work on their
end of the route. Both boards

The committee was also in.
structed to investigate the law
with regard to the old Hondo to

CONTRACT LET FOR
APARTMENT HOUSE,
Columbus To Have Big Twenty Room
Apartment House On Main st.

Columbus is to have new large
and modern apartment house.
On Friday morning Mr.. W. c. Beard
awarded to Mr.. Willis McClanahan
the contract for the reconstruction
of what is known as the old Dashiel
house, on Main street at the corner
of Fifth. Some time ago the interior
of this building was badly damaged
by fire. Mr.. Beard decided to have
the structure re-modelled and en-
larged and made into an apartment
house with thirty rooms.
Mr.. McClanahan will start the
work at once. The Beard Apartment
will consist Of four apartments, Of
five rooms each. The building will be
heated throughout with steam. The
plumbing and electrical wiring will be
the best that money can buy, Ii will
be strictly modern and up-to-the-
minute in every detail, with "all the
comforts of home"
Mr.. Beard expects TO have the
apartments ready for occupancy by
the first of August. He will have
no trouble to rent the apartments.
The trouble he will experience will
be in telling folks they're all oc-
cupied." If the building contained
fifty apartments instead Of four they
could all be filled before noon Of the
day they were declared ready for
tenants.
Plans for the Beard Apartments
were drawn by Mr.. p. j. Krouse, of
Meridian.

BODY OF BABY
WASHED ASHORE

On Thursday afternoon several
members of the Boy Scout organiza-
tion found the body Of baby at the
edge of the Tombigbee River at the
foot of Second Avenue, South. The
matter was rep tied to the officers,
who had the body removed to the un-
dertaking establishment of Messrs.
Gunter Bros,
Friday morning, Mr.. C. NJ. Reeves,
justice of the peace, had eoroner's
jury drawn and an investigation was
held.
The body was that of white baby
girl, apparently from ten days to two
weeks old. There was a confusion
on the left side of the childs head
which may or may not have been the
cause Of death. Some who viewed
the remains thought the baby was
thrown from the bridge into the river,
alive, and that the blow came from
contact with the bridge or by being
struck by a piece Of driftwood This
theory is supported by the fact that
there was considerable swelling sur
rounding the wound, which would not
have been the case had the blow been
received after death. The child was
fully dressed, the clothing being Of
very cheap material.
The coroner's jury consisted of
Messrs. John B Williams, c. A. Will
liams, J. A. Northcut, f. b. Morris,
T. w. Belsher, and NJ. A. Spann. They
gave it as their opinion that the child
"Came to its death by drowning at
the hands of a party or parties un-
known to this jury"
The officers are working on several
theories in connection with the homi-
eide, and startling developments may
be brought to light at any time. 1t
is difficult to understand how any
human heart could become so cruel
as to prompt the destruction Of the
life of an innocent and helpless babe.

RETAILERS AGAIN
APPEAL TOLOCKE
Committee From State AssOcia-
tiOn Appear In Hearing
Before Fair Price
Commissioner.

A committee Of merchants repres-
enting the Retail Merchants Associa-
tion of Mississippi, appeared in a
hearing before Fair Price Commits
sioner Locke in this city Thursday.
The delegation was headed by Mr..
Marks fRothenberg of Meridian and
the hearing was held in the office of
the commissioner in the Columbus
National Bank building.
Affidavits and other data were SUBJ
mitted to the commissioner in sup
port of the merchants contention that
the margins of profit should be based
on the selling profit of merchandise
rather than on the cost price They
argued that this is the recognized
principle of estimating profit, and
urged the commissioner to amend his
order with this as the basis of pro-
fit.
They submitted estimates of over
head expense varying from % to 81
per cent.
Mr., Locke scored the Delta farmers
when representative from that sec
tion made the statement that mer-
chants there were entitled to a wider
margin of profit from the fact that
they were required to pay land owners
10 per cent for the business of their
tenants. Mr.. Locke warned merchants
against this practice if they hoped to
secure wider margins of profit with
this as the basis of their hope.
AS a result of the conference it is
believed, there is a better and more
sympathetic understanding between
the merchants and the commissioner
Mr.. Locke gave no hope to the visitors
Of any modification or change in the
basis of figuring profit.

Contest Between Mr.. Pulen And Mr..
G.. ID. Wood; Election Date Set.

A second race to select a fourth

the requisite number of votes to ef-
feet their nomination as hte fourth
trustee in the city primary held Tues
day.
In the race last Tuesday Mr.. Pullen
received $50 votes and Mr.. Wood $50.
The executive committee ruled that
on the basis of the total number Of
votes cast candidate in the school
trustees race must have received 37l
votes to secure the nomination Mr.
Pullen ran short Of this requisite
number by 21 votes, and, therefore,
the committee decided that a second
primary was necessary.
Mr.. Pullen after the election Tues
day announced his intention Of with
drawing from the race, but on the
earnest solicitation Of numerous
friends he yielded to their wishes
and consented to stay in the race His
friends appealed to him on the
grounds that he had rendered the city
valuable service as school trustee
for two terms and that his experience
and intimacy with school affairs Pc
culiarly fitted him for the place.
The committee set next Tuesday
April 18th, as the date for the second
primary.
