NAVAJO GOLD FIELDS.
Tncle Sam's Troops Going in to Keep
Prospectors off tho Reservation.
Gai.ixp, N. M.t July 27. The excite
ment follow ini? tlie aunouiioement of the
discoveries of great ore bodies on the
Navajo reservation has increased rather
than abated, and wild rumots pervade the
air and strange whisperings are heard on
all fides. That a baud of organized
miners stand prepared to move into the
forbidden torritoryat the signal of a leader
there is no reason to doubt. Those
miners have tlieiranents in various towns,
watching the movements of the military
and trying to find out, if possible, just
what move it intends to make.
It is learned from reliable military men
visiting this city from Fo't Wingate that a
force of regular cavalry, about fifty strong,
commanded by an experienced oliicer, will
leave that fort within forty-eight hours en
route to the Navajo Indian reservation to
assist the Indian agent, . C. Yandever,
in preventing unauthorized persons from
prospecting or otherwise trespassing upon
the reservation. Orders have been issued
by the military department commander to
the effect.
It is understood that a strong body of
regular troops will be permanently posted
on duty on the Indian reservation during
the next three or four months, or until
the inclemency of the winter season shall
be sulliciont to defer the prospectors from
exploring that country.
It now remains to be seen what, if any,
action will be taken by the strong body ol
miners with headquarters on the Han Juan
river, Colo., who have been preparing to
invade the Carrizo mountains on the res
ervation. GERONIMO'S SQUAW BAPTISED.
The Old A p tic he Chief Reverently Wit
nesses the Ceremony.
Moikt Vkrkon, Ala,, July 28. Geroni
mo's squaw and papoose w ere baptized at
St. Thomas' church here recently. He
brought them himself to the priest for that
purpose, accompanied by one of the ln
diaug who speaks very good English to
express his wishes. The squaw was in
structed by the Rev. H. O'Urady, pastor,
lor the holy sacrament ol baptism , through
the interpreter, and was received into the
Catholic church and is called Maria. The
child's name is Frances, princess of the
Apaches.
Oreronimo was dressed becomingly lor the
occasion and painted in the highest colors.
He watched intently every movement of
the priest and seemed to appreciate every
word that was uttered, kneeling during
the ceremony.
Later in the evening the priest adminis
tered the last sacrament to a dying squaw
that he discovered by accident during his
visit to the camp, beeing her on her bed
of sull'eting, watted and dying of con
sumption, lie spoke to her and showed
her the crucitix. rue language snecouiu
not understand, but when she saw the
crucitix she smiled and reached for it.
By this he knew she was a Catholic. Y
then drove back and returned prepared j
anoint ber. She seemed rejoiced in her
dying moments, and grasped the crucitix
with firm hold and muttered a prayer in
her own language, and the crucitix was
with difficulty taken from her.
The other Indians knelt around the
dying woman with respect and devotion,
and the sacrament was administered be
neath the sheltered oaks of old Mount
Vernon. She died that night.
This impressed the Indians deeply, and
the next day there w ere more brought to
the church to be baptized. The babies
were baptized, but the older ones had to
be left over to be instructed for the sacra
ment until next time.
Republican Prospects in Wyoming.
Denver, July 28. A. D. Kelly, of
Cheyenne, chairman of the state Repub
lican committee of Wyoming, is in the
city. In conversation tie said :
"The outlook is for a campaign that,
though short, will be lively and interest
ing. The state convention meets August
11, and the election is held one mouth
later. It is impossible to forecast the re
sult, but an estimate would show ad
vantageously to the Republican party. In
1888, when Mr. Carey was eiected dele
gate to congress for his third term, lie
encountered a warm fight, but was vic
torious by a majority of 3,000. Now our
population is much larger than then, and
i think the Repubtican majority will not
be less than it was two years ago. 1 think
it probable that the people will return
Mr. Carey to the senate.

The present government has established
a rigid censorship of news. No informa

Reservoir Sites.
Lieutenant Davis and party, of the
United States geological survey, are now

THE SPRINGER ARTESIAN FLOW.
A Comparison or Geological Fotmatlen
Surrounding Springer and Santa Fe.
To tho Editor oC the New Mexican.
Sasta Fe, July 28, '00. Having been
asked by you if there was any plausible
reason why the boring of a well in the
Red river bottom should have been more
successful in producing an artesian flow
as compared with the experimental well
ou the plains south of this city, I venture
to say this :
Springer and the surrounding country
are located In a natural basin whose upper
geological make up consists of the so
called Colorado series of the cretaceous
period flanked on the west, nt some dis
tance, say 28 or 30 miles, by trachytic
rocks (Black Teak and eastnrn foot hills),
on the southwest by elevations, rising
above the plains, covered with basalt
(Kayado, Gonzales and Ocate mesas) and
consisting of the Dakota series of the
cretaceous period. On the south and
southeast by similar formations. On the
north by elevations consisting of the Lara
mie series ; on the northeast by basalt cov
ered hills of the Laramie series, while to
ward the east the Colorado series them
selves extend for untold miles. All these
formations dip 5 degrees east.
On the other hand the Santa fe plains
consist also of deposits of the cretaceous,
but they belong to the Loup Fork Beries,
dipping 5 degrees west and resting on
curboniferous limestone which dips 35
degrees west.
The difference of these several series is
briefly this :
The Colorado consists of cream and
whi'e colored limestone, gray and yellow
shales, alternating with fine, white cal
careous sandstones.
The Dakota consists mainly of blueish,
yellow, white and red, thin sandstones
with some gypsum.
The Laramie consists of grayish sand
stone beds of deep red color, separated by
shales.
The Loup Fork consists of chalky,
porous limestones alternating with layers
of yellow sandstones, soft in upper parts,
greenish and of orange color in the lower
parts, with loose material of trachyte
granite, sand, clay and marly limestone
(which were water bearing at the Santa
Fe experimental well.)
Thus it will be seen that, if similar in
character, there are marked differences be
tween the different series.
All groups contain beds of clay, con
tinuous or disconnected, the immediate
requirement for .an artesian flow. For,
if there is water anywhere, or a subter
ranean stream, it has to be confined be
tween two impervious layers of some
kind of formation to prevent the water
from spreading, and of those of course,
clay is the best.
The Colorado series are most favorable
for retaining water, as the result at
Springer has proven.
Besi.ies, differences in leads have all to
do wjth an artesian flow.
. ' lie railroad depot at Springer has an
.evation above sea of 5,783.40 feet, while
to the west, southwest and south, such
elevations are: at Cimarron, 5,385 feet;
Kayado and Gonzales mesas, 6,950 feet in
the averages ; Kayado, 0,532 feet, while
Black peak rises up to 10,000 feet ; even
from the north the country descends to
ward Springer, for Dorsey is 5,940 feet,
Dover 5,834 feet, thus giving it a favorable
descent from higher locations toward a
common central point (Springer) of 410,
002. 749, 1,107 and even 5,U7 feet, which
bgures, of course, somewhat increase to a
location about six miles down the river
from Springer, where the well is located.
Furthermore, the country west of
Springer is, outside of Cimarron Itself,
well watered by 1'onil, Uraca, Kayado
and other smaller water-bearing affluents,
all adding to the chances for a natural,
subterranean flow of water. Even on the
north, with a southwestern course, Llano
creek and others flow into the Red river
before joining the Cimarron, and all these
circumstances combineto make the boring
of a well, producing an artesian flow, on
Mr. Taylor's ranch successful. If the
depth at which a flow was struck is fav
orable (250 feet) it is not very surprising,
it is merely a very lucky combination of
favorable circumstances.
On the Santa Fe plains there are,
outside of Galisteo and Santa Fe creeks
on south the aud north, eighteen miles
distant from each oilier, scarcely any
water resources in the mountains to the
east; (Apache creeks and ethers are abso
lutely shut off by intervening Archaean
rtfoBs), and the thickness of the creta
ceous (Loup Fork) is differently estimated
at from 1,500 to 2,000 feet, if not more,
before solid limestone of the coal age can
bo reached. These points have repeat
edly been argued in your columns from
the very time when the experimental w ell
south of this city was started, and anyone
who took care to read such notes on the
geological construction of the plains must
have found implied in them that a suc
cess at the place where the well was sunk
was very doubtful ; this, entirely from a
"lookeron" point of view.
Such localities as the heads of the Ar
royo de los Chamisos, Hondo, the heads
of the San Marcos Arroyo, Canada de los
Ranchos, all emanating from the moun
tains westward, would have certainly
proved much more favorable points.

K. of F. Grand Lodge.
The K. P.'s are making grand prepara
tions for the reception and entertain
ment of the grand lodge of the territory
which will meet here September 9. The
attendance of regular delegates will num
ber between fifty and sixty, while a great
many other knights will be in attend
ance. The Uniform Rank of Kl I'aso
numbering about fifty have signified a
willingness to attend if invited. The in
vitations will be issued to them, and also
to the Uniform Rank of Albuquerque,
and a competitive drill will be among ths
probabilities. In all from 250 to 3u0
people will be in attendance for three j
days, and it behooves the peoplo of Silver j
City to do the handsome tiling by tliein.
As our citizens never do things by halves,
the knights can depend on a royal re
ception and a good time. Silver Citv

"During the last eighteen years 1 have
been using over fifty Allcock's Masters n

most perfect external remedy. They have
repeatedly cured me of rheumatism, to
which I am subject every winter. They
have cured me of pains in the sides and

mother-in-law tell me Allcock's flusters
are the best remedy ever made, so agreea

my wife of pains in the back and of a

cured of a most severe cold, which threat

Merchants and others are hereby re
minded that the New Mexican is pre
pared to do their printing on short notice
and at reasonable rates. Much of the job
printing now going out of town should
come to the New Mexican office. There
in no better excuse for sending out of
town for printing than there is foT sending
away for groceries or clothing. Our mer-1
chants should consider these things. The
New Mexican is acknowledged the lead

of the people will enable us to keep it so.

If you have, niado up your mind to buy
Hood's Sarsaparilla do not be Induced to tako
any other. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is a peculiar
medicine, possessing, liy virtue of its peculiar
combination, proportion, and preparation,
curative power superior to any other article.
A Boston lady who knew what she wanted,
and whoso example Is worthy Imitation, tells
lier experience below:
To Get
" In ono storo where I went to buy Ilood's
Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to induce me buy
their own instead of Hood's; ho told me thelr's
would last longer; that I might take It on ten
days' trial; that it 1 did not like it I need not
pay anything, etc. But he could not prevail
on me to change. I told him I knew what
Ilood's Sarsaparilla was. I had taken It, was
satisfied with it, and did not want any other.
Hood's
When I began taking Ilood's Sarsaparilla
I was feeling real ndscrablo, suffering
a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak
that at times I could hardly stand. I looked,
and had for some time, like a person in con
sumption. Ilood's Sarsaparilla did me so
much good that I wonder at myself sometimes,
and my friends frequently speak of It." Mas.
