7 Ay Vol. I. East Las Vegas, New Mexico, Thursday Evening, July 14, 1892. No. 189. A3 A3 TERRITORIAL, There is not an empty house in the city and the demand is great and still growing, says the Socorro Chief tain. Socorro has been visited by sev eral fine rains of late, the one Thurs day evening being the best that has fallen for months. The agricultural college has writ ten President Brooks asking 160 feet of fipace along the main hall and apart from the larger exhibit to be made by the college. Dona Ana county will make a large display of cereals, fruits and minerals. Cit izen. Mr. Charles Lummis says that one rime he was offered a Navajo girl for ten horses. The price of girls has evidently gone up, since this writer traveled in that region, for a biave offered us his wife and little 0 year old girl for a breech-loading shot gun. Pueblo Star. j The injunction suit of George L. Brooks and others against the Albu querque Water company, growing out of that corporation's poor service and exorbitant charges, will be taken to Santa Fe on change of venue, Judgo Lee, of Albuquerque, being personally interested in the result ot the contest. The hearing will take place about the 27th inst. In the case of the Aztec-Junction City contest over the San Juan county seat, transcript of the volum inous record has been finished and the ease will probably bo filed for hearing at the approaching term ot the territorial supreme court, which opens on tho 25th inst. The time for filing suits fo"r this term expires on Friday next, the 15th inst An Important Compbohiss. As foreshadowed in these columns some days ago, the' Lincoln-Lucky mining suit of S. A. Josephi has been Bettled to the satisfaction of all inter ested parlies. It is understood the settlement was in the nature of a compromise, both parties making concessions, in order to stop litiga tion and to work the property. The stipulations of the compromise are daily expected here from Denver, when they will be filed of record in the clerk's office. As a result of the new deal a corporation has been formed called the Lincoln-Lucky-Lee Mining company,with a capital stock of 1,000,000, and the shareholders are Henry Lee, Al Townsend, Ed Billings, S. A. Josephi, M. I. New house, George V. Middleton and R. Y. Anderson, of Denver. The effects of the old Lincoln Lucky company are now in the hands of Frank A. Gove, of Denver, as trustee, to bo transferred in due time to the Lincoln-Lucky-Lee company. The ''Lee" claim is said to be the Anaconda mine, over which suit is now pending before Judge Seeds and which comes up ten days hence on tho question as to whether the tem porary injunction secured by A. M. Ilendrio and others to restrain tho company from working it, shall be dissolved or made permanent One thing is certain.the true value of the original Lincoln-Lucky vein has now been fully demonstrated,and no matter what the result of this suit may be, it will bo worked for all there is in it, greatly adding to the prosperity of south Santa Fe county's mining interests. Now Mexican. RAILROAD ITEMS. Arrangements have been made by which a number of employes on the Pennsylvania lines will leave for China, to introduce on tho Imperial road the uso of the Westinghouse air-brake and other improvements in use on American roads. The party includes two engineers, a telegraph superintendent, a bridge builder, a civil engineer and a master mechanic. All are skilled men in their depart ments, and are paid handsomely for their services while abroad. A passenger train on the Pennsyl vania road, running between Altoona and Pittsburg, on the Fourth made a phenomenal record. Tho distance is 117 miles, and 1,080 passengers were handled on the train. Of course there was not that number of pas sengers on the train at one time, but that number of tickets were collect ed, representing excursionists and others who got on and off of the train al the various stopping places. The Rio Grande division of tin Texas & Pacific made a run of a train of fruit from El Paso to Fort Worth Tuesday, that is worth re cording. The distance is 015 miles, with three changes of crews and en gines, and the run was made in 28 hours, or an average run of 22 miles per hour, not including stops. Con sidering the nature of the country traversed, this run equals any of the fast runs made on northern roads. The train consisted of 14 cars of fruit for northern markets. The Union Pacific is making ar rangements for carrying a shipment of California fruit enrouto to Europe. Heretofore the California growers have been barred from the London and Paris markets, on account of tho distance and heavy cost of transpor tation. They are now making up a consignment of five cars that will go through from San Francisco to New York in seven days, and thence by fast boat across tho Atlantic. This, it is said, will be the first lot of Cal ifornia fruit offered for sale in the cities of Europe. The Pecos high bridge is now en tirely covered with ga'vauizod iron. This is done for the purpose of pro tecting the wooden guard rails and ties from fire. It took about 60,000 square feet of iron to cover the bridge and about 1,000 yards on either side of the immense structure. There is also a rerailing device over the bridge, which is to put a car on the track, if it is derailed, before it gets on the bridge. In addition to the timber guard rail, there is also a guard rail composed of 5-2-pound steel, which renders it impossible for a car or train to get off the track should it be derailed. FRT ON TH2 ECAStS. Tee Compass Plant. On tho western prairie is found what is called the compass plant, which is of great valuo to travelers. The long leavos at the base of its stem are placed, not fiat, as in plants generally, but in a vertical position, and present their edges north and south. The peculiar propensity of the plant is attributed to tho fact that both surfaces of its leaves dis play an equal receptivity for light, whereas the upper surfaces of the leaves of most plants are more sen sitive to light than the lower; the leaves thus assume a vertical position and point north and south. Denver Sun. When it comes to even the ordi nary, old time, one ring, small, "round top" circus, "men are but children of a larger growth." Small wonder then that the announced visit of Sells Brothers' enormous united shows creates a child-like furore of delighted expectations. Nor is en thusiastic anticipation in this in stance misplaced, for the assurances are genuine and ample that there will be revealed to us really and intrinsi cally the big show of the world, so far as rare wild beast processions, brilliant equestrian and athletic per formances, gorgeous oriental pagoant- ry ana revived imperial, ancient time heroic contests and pastimes, can fill the bill. And not only is it a very great, but a very good, clean, admirably managed show, absolutely free from any and every annoyanco or objectionable association, and un der the immediate eye of its proprie tors, who are no irresponsible and pre datory spcculatators, but men of high standing at home capitalists, bank directors, and members of the board I of trade. They amply deserve a rousing welcome. The Tex&s-Pacifio Extension. House Furnishing BIIRAW! BI1M1S! t0jp u REFRIGERATORS! Just received at N. B, Call and see them and make your selection. Rosenthal Bros. STUDEB AKER I MUNNICH A special dispatch to the Globe Democrat from El Paso says: Jay Gould has shown his real intention in the matter of the extension of the Texas & Pacific railway to the Pa cific. His agents consummated a deal last Saturday at the City of Mexico with tho Mexican govern ment whereby he has secured the concession of a railroad from Ciudad Juarez (Paso del Norte), on the Mexican sido opposite this city, through the states of Chihuahua, So nora and Sinaloa, to Mazatlan, the besc port on the Mexican Pacifio coast, and thence to the City of Mex ico. This will give the new system two feeders for the Pacifio coast one from this city, which is a con verging point of three large systems, and one from Vera Cruz. The merchants of a city who build large stores, fill them with a fine as sortment of goods and pay heavy taxes to a community, and become permanent residents of a city, are without doubt entitled to the consid eration and patronage of the commu nity m which they are residing and doing business. While not demand ing, ihey solicit a patronage and request an examination of their goods before taking your money and send ing it away. Tonight's passenger trains are bul letined on time. Mr. Alden, a national bank exam iner, is in town today. The 8 year old child of Mr. War der, of Watrous, died yesterday. On view at the Golden Rule gro cery, an "Irish thrush, caught a nap ping," by John Young. Its voice is superb, voluminous, monotonous. It is to bo hoped that our citizens will keep away from the dangerous holes in the arroya, after such timely warning as they have had within the last few days. Jack Creighton deserves some of the credit for securing Gonzales from that dangerous hole in the Pecos arroya this morning. He jumped in where few men would dare to go and helped Wthers to land the body.
