BLUE SHADES FOR SPRING,

NEW YORK. March 24.-At leas.
one of the many shades of blue pre-
sented for popular approval in wom-
ems garments for spring is destined
to "catch on" according to textile
men. A periwinkle blue. a light blue
which has a decided lavender cast,
was first exploited. Then came Mary
blue, which is described as a color
matching the eyes of Princess Mary.
Now some enterprising merchants are
sponsoring Blue Bow Blue. the color
that appears in Gainsborough's PAM

publicity of late. Color trends are
still closely linked with current
events, and some new DEVELOPMENT in
the days news may bring forth an
other shade that will bid for mi
lady's favor.

HEAT IN EARTH'S INTERIOR
Official Of United States Geological
Survey Has Come Forward With
Some New Facts.

Long-established theories regarding
the intense heat In the earth'S interior
may have to be revised, If the incon-
elusive evidence adduced by tempera-
ture tests in 107 deep wells In this
country by DIR. G. e. Van Orstrand Of
the United States geological survey
should be confirmed by further inves-
tigation. According to this expert,
the steady increase in temperature, 30
great that miner could not live at
a depth Of one mile, appears to be less
rapid little beyond that depth.
Combined with the fact that mathe-
maticians have not yet found the law
Of distribution of temperature from
the surface to the center Of the earth,
this makes uncertain the estimate
Of some scientists that the heat at the
center Is as high as 10000 degrees
Fahrenheit. Observations at depth
Of about 1900 feet have been taken.

been able to carry his Investigations

HUMBLE WORK is RESUMED
New York "BIml" Reported to Have
Gone Back to Occupation
That Pays Little.

In all New York the "bimi' has
doubtless the humblest profession.
Without capital or skill, he has long
followed his career with more or less
profit. Years ago, he was a familiar
character throughout the city, but the
war drove him from his accustomed
haunts. With the increase In build
ing activities throughout New York he
Is once more appearing In considerable
numbers.
The "bimi," 1t may be necessary to
explain to newcomers to the city, Is
usually tramp or some one reduced
to want, who collects wood from new
building enterprises or from buildings
being demolished, and prepares and
sells bundles of fire wood. The pro-
fession requires no capital or skill, nor
indeed any tools. The wood Is usually
broken by the simple expedient Of
smashing 1t to pieces with paving
stone.
Any "bimi" who would save from
his income and purchase O modern tool,
like hatchet or axe, could greatly
Increase his output, but such efficiency
Is not expected of the tribe Of 'bimies."
Hundreds Of these men could be seen
In vacant lots In past years, laboriously
and clumsily breaking up cast off tim
Der. His product found ready sale.
The price by common consent for a
bundle of such kindling in the past was
10 cents, no more or less. Since the
war the income Of the 'bimi," like that
of so many other workers, had taken a
jump. The same product today COM
mands a price of 20 cents.

Homeslck Elephant.

An elephant In the London zoologf-
cal garden some time ago went on
strike and refused to perform her usu-
al work Of carrying children about the
place. Some new riding steps," which
were made use of by the little passen-
gers to reach the back Of the elephant,
were replaced by new ones and
when she was led to 1t for the first
time she refused to enter 1t was
thought that she might be making a
protest against the removal of the old
steps and SO these were put In their
old place, but still she refused to en-
ter. Soon after this she refused to
leave the pen. ALI other efforts hav-
ing failed to induce her to be good, 1t
was decided to send to India for ma
hout and he arrived recently. After
talking to her soothingly In his native
language, and you might say hers also,
she allowed him to put rope around
her neck which he used as a stirrup
and with this he climbed up on her
head and led her through her usual
stunts. The animal was presented to
the garden by the maharaJah Of Cooch
Behar, and was evidently homesick.

MAN IS KILLED
NEAR Fl. SUMNER
BY An OFFICER
Quarrel Over Land Said to
Have Been Cause OF
Killing of W. R. Shepard
by Tom White.
Special to The journal.

Fort Sumner, N. M, Sept. S.
w. #. Shepard was killed Monday
afternoon about o'clock by Tom
M. White. The shooting is said to
have occurred during a quarrel
over range land.
Mr.. White shot four times with
25-S5 Winchester and Shepard fired
six times with IS caliber Smith
d Wesson revolver. Two shots
fired by Shepard passed through
Whites clothing; one going through
his right pocket flap, and one
through his sleeve, which burned
his arm. Another shot, fired by
Shepard, grazed the skin on the
back of one of l.. d. Cullen's hands,
while another killed a fine saddle
animal belonging to J. w. Patter-
son.
Shepard was struck by only one
bullet, in the abdomen, and lived
only long enough to be carried to
his home, about half of a mile
away.
one Of the horses attached to the
Shepard wagon, died soon after 1t
was driven home, presumably from
a bullet wound.
Messrs y. NJ. White, J. w. Pat
terson, J.. D. Cullen, and u hired
man of Whites, were repairing the
windmill on the Cullen ranch, when
Shepard and a grown son, william,
came to the windmill where they
were at work. Shepard renewed a
row Of several months standing
with White, but was prevailed upon
to return to his home. However,
he and his son soon returned, and
Shepard again started abusing
White, while keeping his hand in
side his shirt, on his gun.
White is a deputy sheriff, and he
finally informed Shepard he would
have to place him under arrest and
for him to take his hand off his
gun. It is said Shepard dared White
to "come and get me-" or words to
that effect, and pulled his hand
out of his shirt, with the gun.
White started for his car, where he
had a Winchester and commenced
firing at Shepard.
White Immediately came to Fort
Sumner and surrendered to Chief
Deputy Sheriff J. NJ. Spencer.
He gave an appearance bond of
$4,000 for a preliminary hearing,
set for September Il. before Justice
of the Peace J. r. Perkins.
Mr.. Shepard had made his home
in the 1ngleville community for
twelve years. He is survived by
his wife, seven children. his moth
er and an invalid sister.
Mr.. White has had large range
holdings in that community for
about six years. having bought the
Pride ranch, besides having hume
Gus leases on small places.
This is the third killing in De
Baca county in the last ten months.
One occurring on November 8, when
Hub Hall killed B. +. McMillen in
the Canto country. The other was
on February 6, when Ora Hall was
killed by Harvey Burkett, about
four miles west of Ricardo, on the
Abo highway.
These two cases will come up at
this term of court, which couvenes
here on September 4, with Judge
Sam G. Bratton presiding.
1t is said that all three Of the
killings can be traced to difficulties
over range leases.
