PONY RIDDEN BY BOY
WHO BARELY ESCAPES

Carlsbad, n. NJ, Oct. 16.-David.
the 10-year-old son of Mrs. G.
p. Wilmington, who resides on the
w. II. Merchant place, southwest
Of town, was attacked by a steer
last Tuesday and but for the time
~ arrival Of a cowboy, would in
all probability have lost his life.
The little fellow was taking a ride
on his Shetland pony, on the road
west of tho canal bridge, not far
from his home, when he rode lp
to steer that was lying in the
shade of mesquite. The animal,
surprised, jumped to its feet and
took after the pony goring it in
n frightful manner The lad turned
his pony around. but was pursued
by the steer. a cowboy near at
hand fastened to the child's as
sistance and detracted the steers
attention. telling David to leave his
pony and hide in the bush, which
he did. The cowboy then recoyed
the animal away. 1t develops that
the steer is one of the large ones
that are being held awaiting the
arrival of cars to ship them, and
was sick, so that it could not keep
up with the herd and had to be
left behind.

one COUNTY IN
NE VI MEXICO To
Be REASSESSE
Tax Commission Orders
This Done in Guadalupe
Following CompI ANTS
Filed by Four Railroads.

n Santa Fe. oct 16.-On account
OF alleged discrimination in assess
ments in Guadalupe county the
state tax commission has ordered
4 complete reassessment Of prop
erty in that county. The charge
of discrimination is made by the
Atchison, Topeka ana Santa Fe,
the Chicago, Rock Island and Pa
.cilic, the ri Paso and Southwest
crn and the III Paso and Rock Is
land railway companies.
Three of the companies charge
THAT Il large percentage of all
the property in the county is not
assessed at all,
"That the property which is as
sessed is so inaceurately and care
lessly described that the taxes on
it could not be collected by suit
and that therefore, large dclin-
quoncies occur,
THAT with the exception Of the
assessments made and certified TO
the county by the state tax com
mission all property is grossly UNI
der-assessed."
The resolution of the commits
sion declares that the assessment
for 1922 is not according to law
and is incomplete in many re-
spects. Cost of the new assess
ment is directed to be paid out of
a balance of $2074 available for the
purpose. The county commission
ers are authorized TO make an adj
ditional levy &c take care of any
deficit in the cost

CATTLE THE YES

HARDING COUNTY
Joe SWoyer of Cone Loses
so; Arrests Fail to Stop
Losses, and Thief Still
Believed at Large.

Mosquero, N. NJ, Oct. 16.-Cat-
tie "rustling' appears to be coming
back or reviving as leading in
dustry in these parts. Joe swoyer'
of Cone. reports the loss OF 6o
head; Walter Jones, also Of Cone,
8 head: Mr.. Hartley, of Miera.. 20
head. and Frank Corey Of Mos
auero contributed two head to the
gentry who are unhampered py
any moral principle that might
forbid enriching themselves at 9TH
ers expense.
One or two arrests have been
made for this sort Of crime, but
it seems certain from the above
losses from widely separated
ranches that the COW thief is still
at large.
Many of the cattle stolen are
unbranded and therefore difficult
for the officers to trace. Every
farmer Is urged to get a brand
from the cattle sanitary board and
brand all his stock. This, with care
to look at and count the bunch
every day. will prove discouraging
to the thieves.

YOU'LL GET RID OF
BLACkHEADS sure

There is one simple. safe and sure
way that never fails TO get rid of
blackheads, that is to dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces of calo-
mite powder from any drug store
sprinkle little on a hot, wet sponge
rub over the blackheads briskly-
wash the parts and you will be sur
pr-ised how the blackheads have dis
appeared, Big blackheads, little
blackheads. no matter where they
are, simply dissolve and disappear,
leaving the parts without any mark
whatever. Blackheads are simply a
mixture of dust and dirt and secre-
lions from the body that form in the
pores of the skin. Pinchlng and
squeezing only cause Irritation,
make large pores, and do not get the
blackheads out after they become
1ard. The calonite powder and tho
water simply dissolve the black
heads SO they wash right out, Ieav-
ing the pores free and clean and in
h e n natural condition. Anyone
troubled with these unsightly blem-
lshes should certainly try this sim
pie method.
