COUNTY JAIL IS
Be ING PAINTED
AND KALSOMINE D
Committee of Women Visit
Old Town CarCeI and In
speCt improvements; First
RedeCorated In 3 Years.

The dungeon dank and -four
that was the county Jail mas been
transformed with a neat coat OF
dove gray which should have n
Quakerlsh effect on the inmates.
The metamorphosis has been ac-
complished by Chief Deputy Fred
Fornoff with a corps of workers
under him headed by MERGED Skin
ner, taller, and is the first interior
decoration that the Jail has en-
joyed for three years.
The transformation wrought by
fresh paint, plaster and ltalsomtne
made a marked impression upon n
committee of women who made an
inspection on Wednesday after
noon, and contrasted what the fin
ished effect would be with the
generally gloomy, forlorn and fill
thy expression worn by the county
boarding house when last inspect
early in the spring.
Womcn's Clubs Interested.
The committee consisted of rep
resentatives of three of the largest
women's institutions in the city and
included Mrs. A. b. McMillen, rep
resenting the Tuesday club; Mrs.
C. II. Conner of the Woman's
club; Miss Johnson, secretary oil
the Y. w. C. A., and a representa-
tive of the Morning Journal A
group of women from the same in
situations and others, We're among
the committees who visited the jan
last spring, and made reports
which produced no results from
the then commissioners.
The kitchen and "office" on the
ground floor will have new cement
floors laid over the rOtted old
wood: these rooms are also BEING
painted and kalsomined but vii
probably be the last, to be finished
as the quarters of the inmates were
the first to be done over, The "bul
PEN is at least q Clearly austert
prison, and if kept clean as the
new iailer promises it shall be
should have a good effect on the
incorribigles who are locked in the
separate cells there. n
Women's Quarters "Nice."
The women's quarters upstairs
are decorated in buff and cream OF
gray, and it is planned to, either
paint or oil the floors which pre-
sent a difficult problem, as they
are very old and full OF splinters
1t is the purpose of the deputy
sheriff and the jailer to make the
most of what can be done with the
jail, and to run it az efficiently as
possible, and their efforts have ap-
parently already had good effect
and are appreciated by the prison
oners, who have expressed them
selves warmly on the subject of
cleanliness, food and general care.
Chief among those who are
pleased with the new regime is
Alexander G. Patterson, who posed
as a minister and took in one of
Albuquerques large business clubs.

dictment being in the usual form
land charging first degree murder
At the trial the evidence on both
sides showed that defendant and
deceased owned adjoining ranches

vious to the homicide while the de-
ceased was in Mogollon, his wife,

the objections of defendant, who
| was present at the time. There
was some alteration between de-
| fendant and the wife, and the ev-
idence was conflicting as to wheth-
err the defendant offered personal
violence toward the hired man.
| No threats were made except de-
! PENDANT threatened to bring suit
and the wife threatened to report
! the matter to her husband.
The evidence on both sides is in
accord that defendant shot de-
ceased while the latter was riding
iup and northward along the road
running through the defendants
ranch; that both defendant and de-
ceased We're armed with rifles ut
the time deceased wasI carrying his
| rifle in a scabbard on the right OF
his saddle, and that but one shot
was fired, that by the defendant,
which proved instantly fatal. There
were no eye witnesses. In all 9TH
err respects the evidence introduced
on behalf of the prosecution and
the defense was dramatically OPP
| posed.
At the conclusion of the trial the
court in several instructions de-
fined murder in the second degree,
and told the jury they might return
verdict in that degree. The de-
| PENDANT objected to each of these
instructions and excepted to them
at the time they were given. The
jury returned a verdict of guilty
in the second degree, and after a
motion for q new trial had been
overruled the court sentenced the
defendant. From this verdict and
sentence the defendant has prose-
cuted this appeal.
Judgment of the court below re-
affirmed on rehearing.
