Here is some of tbe facts about
the national guard of New Mexico:
1 . The New Mexico guardsmen
are oallad iptoi camp at Albuquer
que at once. In pojpt pf training
tbey will baye more than three
months' advantage over tpe first of
tbe drafted men.
2. Hereto ?, except in wht
time, the pay for t'h iivat po'.
dier has been $13 per month, nn'
just a little more when in rciuhI
war service. Th pay will b eith-
er WJ or fau per monip, iooa,
clothing and shelter. There are
fw mp in Albuquerque, married
or unmarried, who are able to laj
aside $30 a month ab ve fxppnsf-s.
8, There will be a board of
regular army officers to pass on tbe
qualifications of all the commis
iooed officers of the New Mexico
national guard, . and noy officer
found unahle to measure up to
the standard of the regular army
will be given bis discharge and an
officer who does measure pp to the
standard will be assigned to bis
place,
4. Simeof the offiws svill. be
weeded out, and intelligent, ener-
getio privates will take their places.
No politio'il pull will iiHve any
thing to do wiih it. . It will l h
mutter of qpnhficatin ouly.

rifle and Savage ammunition in the hands of Mr. Walter

On the same day, with the iam rifle and ammunition, Mr. Winana made
the highest possible acore on the Running Wild Bo target six Straight jS.

dous velocity (2800 feet more than half a mile a second), long point blank
range (100-yard trajectory less than three inches), and trifling recoil (4.6 foot ,

And it has killed Alaskan Brown Bear, Grizzly, Buffalo, and man-eating
