Men of Town Meet Thurs
day-Show Keen Interest
in Project.

Thursday afternoon a big
meeting of business and pro-
fessional men Of Carrizozo was
held a; the Lutz Hall to discuss
ways and means to further the
project of erecting the new
hotel the particulars Of which we
have published heretofore. Those
present were deeply interested
and manifested the same by
subscribing to the movement to
the extent of $500 according
to the report of the secretary.
This includes, of course, sub
scriptions that have been taken
prior to the meeting of Thursday.
The new hotel will cost $70,-
10000 and when 500 of this
amount has been subscribed,
ground will be broken and the
work commenced on the struc-
ture that when completed will
be one Of which Carrizozo may
we'll be proud. In conversation
with some of the leading pro.
moters of the project. the Out.
look learned that it is the inten-
tion to have the building com.
pleted by the first of the coming
June. From now on. the com
mittee in charge of the subscrip-
ton list will be intensely active
and have assurances of the very
best, that the necessary 500
will be easily raised in a short
period of time. We have several
good oil companies now in Car.

working to lease enough acreage
of land to induce drilling COM

Let Us Reason Together

We are heading this articlI in
the manner indicated above to
attract the attention of land
owners who are holding back
the leasing of their land, thus
delaying the very thing that will
bring prosperity to our section
OF Lincoln county, namely: drill.
ing operations. Now that the
New State Oil & Gas company
has so much patented land under
lease necessary of this sort for
an inducement to drilling COM
panies. why should land owners
who have not leased, hold back
and delay the incoming of the
drillers? If they are waiting for
Development to work up to them.
can they bring one evidence to
bear where anyone has ever ac.
quired riches by this practice? q?
Especially in a section which is
so simply wild cat" as this is?
No!
"Watchful Waiting" is not
the policy to pursue in this case.
Our prosperity now depends on
a combined effort to push to sue.
cessful conclusion, the project
we so badly need. How many
are ready to ask the advice of
their grocerymen, bankers or
friends who have already drawn
up leases to help make the thing
"a go? IT you encounter a
knocker, take his argument and
form the opposite, then you will
have the argument right. This
proposition is not the New State
Oil a. Gas eompany's proposition
II is every body's proposition. To
be successful, it needs the sup
port of all.

STATIONS
ALARMED OVER
WEIRD SIGNALS
Undeciphered Signals Con-
tinually Interrupting Wire
less Stations, Cause I'm
easiness.

London, Eng, Jan. 28.-Dis.
cussing the mysterious signals
described yesterday by Signor
Marconi as having been received
in the form of Interruptions of
the Marconi wireless instruments,
Sir Frank w. Dyson, astronomer
royal, Tuesday admitted that in
his opinion it was quite possible
to get waves from other planets.
He was not prepared to go fur
ther at the present. and left it to
greater wireless experts than
himself to describe the effects of
such waves.
Interviewed today regarding
the signals, Marconi said.
They are sounds. They may
be signals, we do not know.
They are not what operators call
atmospheric and we have nothing
to guide us at present as to how
they are caused.
I'VE do not get them unless
we set up a special wave length,
very much greater than the wave
length ordinarily used.
Sometimes there may be a
long wait before we hear any
thing or we may hear these
sounds in 20 minutes or half an
hour. They occur when we are
using a wave length of approXi-
mately 100 kilometers, which is
three or four times the length
used for commercial purposes.
These sounds do not interrupt
commercial messages, he said,
continuing:
I'VE have not gone out of our
way to look for them because they
are no good to us, but they seem
very persistent. Three short
raps are often received, which
might be interpreted into the
letter 81 in the Morse alphabet,
but there are sounds also which
might stand for other letters.

Ambition to be Movie Cow
boy Hero Cost Youth 5000

Denver, Jan. 26. George Nc
Donald's ambition, foisted by a
stranger he met at the National
Western Stock show, TO become
a movie cowboy hero, caused his
separation from 5000 in money
earned on the ranges near Trini-
dad, Colorado, and resulted in
the arrest of A. T. Hill, said by
the police to be the promoter of
the cowbody's ambition.
Mcdonald had come to visit
the stock show and fell in with
Hill. who told him that he pos.
sessed all the qualifications for
successful appearance on the
screen as the hero of q drama of
the plains. Mcdonald hadn't t
thought of it before. but he ad-
mitted he had the ability to tie
and rope a steer and he readily
fell in with Hills plans.
There was only one hitch, and
this was H:ll's fear that Me-
Donald might not appear at the
Los Angeles studio to fulfill his
engagement. He obtained a
5000 guarantee from Mcdonald
and closed the deal.

Committee Will Meet

Santa Fe, June 28.-The re-
publican executive committee is
expected to meet here Saturday
on call of Judge George r. Craig

discussing proposed legislation
to he included in the call for the
special session and possibly for
calling a meeting of the state
central committee to fix the date
for the state convention that will
nominate delegates from the
state to the Chicago convention.
As the national convention
will be held early in June the
call for the state convention pro-
badly will be issued at an early
date, in order to leave ample
time for the holding of precinct
primaries and county conven.
tions which will elect the dele.
gates to the state convention,
In view of the expected meet.
ing of the executive committee
on Saturday it was believed that
Governor Larrazolo would re-
turn to Santa Fe by that date
although as far as could bt
learned no word has been re
ceived directly from him in the
last day or two. He expected
to be in South Bend, Ind, Tues
day.

Gypsy Husband Sold
Cheap, Wife Says

Des Moines, Ia, Jan. 20. - Here's
a new and decidedly commercial
angle to'the eternal triangle. >"
Peter Guy. gypsy, was the
husband of Mary Guy, also of
the wandering tribe of Romany.
He is now the property" of the
other woman" who wanted him
and had the money to buy him.
The bill of sale was drawn up by
a local attorney and is now a
matter of record.
BY the terms Of the sale" the
other women" gave the former
Mrs. Guy $4,000 in gold for "Gyp-
50 Peter" and his bargaining ex-
spouse retains the property the
two jointly accumulated during
their period of gypsy wedlock.
Apparently Peter has been
transferred thus before, for Mrs.
Guy told the attorney who drew
up the papers that she paid
$4,000 for him myself and I'm
selling him cheap"

COURT RESTORES DOMESTIC PEACE
WIFE ACR0BATICAYENGE
Judge Easterwood Uses Grand Lar ceny Charge to Force Stranger
 10 Return to Family.

Do anything you want to with him, Judge, he won't live with his family" said Mrs John Sutton of Chelsea, Okla, yesterday afternoon when she appeared in Justice G. NJ. Easterwood's $ court where her hus- band, John Sutton, formerly employ ed at Waddle X Blessings garage, was on trial charged with grand lar ceny. And then Judge kasterwood was made acquainted With the shoals in the otherwise placid sea of domes- tic relations of the family.
 We've been married 15 years, Mrs Sutton said, and have five children, the oldest girl of 13 years. John nie was alright as long as he stayed at home, but when he left home he was untrue to me. We came down here last month and tried to get him to drive back with us in our car, which he has been keeping here.'
 Tell the judge how you acted when you were here" Sutton inter- posed.
 Well, l raised little cain but you deserved that black eye," she replied, "and I'll black it again if you ever desert me again for a younger woman and tell folks you're single" ;"
 Sutton, it seems, came here in February to work with his father. who erected the E. H. Ward filling station on West Oak street. He later was employed by Waddle & Blessing. According to Mrs Sutton, she and the children visited him here in July, and he spent Sunday, August 1, at home, but since that time has appar- ently deserted her for another woman Wednesday afternoon Sutton came in on the "dinky" but left immediate ly thereafter in his car. Mrs. Sutton and two of the children arrived on the southbond train No. 103. She immediately went to the sheritf's office. Deputy Sheriff J. I. Sum- mers could not arrest Sutton on charge of wife desertion, since she was a resident of another state. A few minutes later, however, it was reported that set of new auto li- censes had been stolen stolen from a car at Waddle & Blessing, and the officers at once suspicioned Sutton. When arrested, it was said he had the tags in his handbag.
 After hearing the case yesterday afternoon, Judge Easterwood ruled that he would hold up temporarily the charge of grand larceny against Sutton upon good behavior. The charge, he said, would eventually be dropped, if Sutton would take his family and do the right thing by them.
 Mrs. Sutton was instructed to noti- fly him should her husband leave home again without her consent. The judge and officers also gave their fees in the case to the woman to enable her to return to her home. Mr. and Mrs. Sutton and two children left last night for their home in Okla homa.
