J A. Jones and A. J. King returned
yesterday from Parral.

"Its bad policy to create an erroneons
idea about mining property," said Pres-
ident Burnham, of the Soargo mining
company, "Float inflated stories abont
yoor mine and when a prospector comes
along he observes the desore penoies and
immediately loseess faith in yon and
yonr property. Tell the exact status
of a thing and then no one will be dis-
appointed. It has been tried to often.”

“The new town, El Capitan, is build-
ing rapidly," remarked J. H. Alward, a
mining engineer who returned from
there yesterday. “In the last six weeks
folly forty bnildings have been erected
and many more are contemplated The
town has one newspaper already, El
Capitan by name, edited by William H
Clnte, one of the commissioners of Lin-
coln county and a draughtsman of some
ability. Mr. Lightfoot, who has
figured with papers in other new New
Mexico towns, is building to pat in an-
other weekly publication. ”

‘ Wilson and Wilber have been oon-
vioted,” remarked Sheriff Pat Garrett,
of Las Cruces. “The former was given
ten years on a plea of gnilty, while his
partner goes up for half that time, hav-
ing turred states evideuoe. The two
accessories, against whom we thought,
and still think, we had a good case,
were acquitted. Juries very often look
at criminal oases differently from the
ones working them up. As it is, the
sentences of both Wilson and Wilber,
Inspires pardonable pride in the sheriff,s
office of Dona Ana county, and more
particularly in Deputy Ben Williams,
through whose efforts the outlaws were
located and arrested.”

“So great has the demand been for
Governor Murphv's 1899 report on Ari-
zona,” said Mr H. E. Runkle, who re
turned from Silver City yesterday, "that
the government printer at Washington
has been ordered to turn out 40,000 ad-
ditional oopies Without doubt Gov-
ernor Murphy’s report is the most com-
plete of Arizona documents issued in
recent years It is compiled in an up to
date way, thoroughly systematic and
renders the conditions of Arizona’s
mineral, raDgeand agricultural sections
easy of comprehension. Arizona needs
no boosting: its resources are too valu-
able aud extensive to demand auy
inflation of the truth. It is said a large
demand for Governor Murphy’s report
come from the east, iudioating all eyes
are on the|weat.”

weeks, the ohlef executive of the state
must view it before it is opened for
publio nee.”
“Manuel Cermona.of the City of Mex
ioo, has a patent in the United States,”
said R Elmer Fleateau, of Durango,
which, if oarried out, will result in
the creation of a unique typewriting
machine. According to his plane, the
machine will be somewhat cumbersome
but a great labor saving piece of mech-
anism. The separate type are just as
the American made machines of today,
except there are three times as many,
being the French, the Spanish and the
American characters. Added to this
are snoh words as ‘the,’ ‘and,’ ’to,’ etc.
on a single llever. and may be printed
by one stroke at the key board. What
a convenience this would be to the oper
ator having muoh work to do, and how
uoeful it would be in rapid execution!
These words -or their equivalent are
also|in the three languages, and the
machine may be shifted from one type
of letters to another by the manipula-
tion of a lever which oontrole the car-
riage.”
“People often owe their lives to men
tal illusion,” ventured Charles M.
Jackson, a Sin Antonio stockman. “I
remember an incident iu my life that
came near taming my hair gray. When
I was a boy working in eastern Missouri
quarries, we had to do considerable
blasting, consequently kept a big sup-
ply of powder on hand We bad a oi-
garette fiend working there and al-
ways cautioned him abont throwing
his fire around. During hours the pow-
der house was continually open. The
drillers were ready for a blast and had
sent the oigarette fiend for several cans
of powder. On his way to the house he
unconsciously lighted a tobacco roll,
walking up to where the explosives were
with it. After picking up the
cans the burning clg&rrette was tossed
to one side. I was on my way to the
powder repository, when I felt some
thing tugging at my coat, and turning
found Ijwss a viotimtjof mental illusion
While turned my attention was attract
ed to the quarries, a quarter of a mile
away, causing me to walk in that di-
rection. In less than five minHtes the
powder house and everything within
reach went into the air. Two men were
killed. Had it not been for the imagin-
ary pulling at my coat.lmy body would
have been swept up in sections.”

“Rowell will have the only big fair
and product display in New Mexico,
this year,” remarked General Freight
and Passenger Agent Marten
dale, of the Pecos Valley road. “It
will be held sometime early iu October,
at a time when the people have some
leasure. Besides being a racing event
it will oarry an exhibition that borders
upon extraveganoe. Parades and il-
lnminary shows will be small features
compared with the great exhibit of
agricultural, mineral aud range pro
ducts. The interest will be height-
ened by a regular old-time cowboy
round up in which the greatest plains
artists will be paraded and perform be
fore the publio An association has
been organized with good baoking, and
everything points to a highly successful
fair and falloarnival.”

"Cinoo de Mayo” should be a great
day this year in Parral,” spoke F. L
James, a miner from Parral. “Tom
Lane’s various enterprises will be in
running shape by that date and Gov
Ahumada will be asked to come down
to Parral to give them an official start
Lane’s electric light business has gone
far beyond his expectations. So many
additional orders have been received he
was compelled to order more genera-
tors, and they will be in shape for ser-
vice by May 5 The governor while in
Parral will also open a bridge recently
built across the river. Every enterpri«e
has to have official approval before be
ing oarried out; then to fol-
low the old timed custom is

Elder Wm. T Jacks, editor of Truth’s
Reilex, published at St. Johns, Kansas,
and also president of the Kansas mis-
sion of the Mormon church,is in the city
and made the Times office a phasant
call yesterday. The Kansas mission in-
cludes Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma and
the Indian Territory. “I am here,”
said Elder Jacks, “to review the work of
Elders Frank Taylor and David L. Mil-
ler, who have been laboring in El Paso
the past four or five months. They
have worked faithfnlly and effectively,
and I will let them return to their
homes in Arizona. Our church is gath-
ering strength daily in every state in
the union. We have elders at work in
every state except the Dakotas, and we
withdrew them from there daring the
winter on aoaonnt of the extreme cold
weather. We are meeting with
more success in Texas than
in any other state. In eastern
Texas we have from six to seven hun-
dred members and about sixty elders
at work We find the people of this
state mor<? tolerant and liberal to all
questions than those of any other state.
In eaoh of the large cities of the coun-
try our otauroh has about twenty eld-
ers. Outside of Texas we find the peo-
ple of Chicago the most liberal. There
the Mormon church and its workers are
allowed all the privileges and freedom
accorded the people of auy other relig
ions faith. The only thing abont our
ohuroh objectionable to the people is
our trade mark They do not like the
word ‘Mormonism’ By any other
name, Methodism, Catholicism or any
other one of the religions isms, the Mor
mon faith and teachings would be ac-
cepted readily Still we cannot oom
plain, as our ohuroh is growing steadily,
and this year our workers are meetln(
with marked sucoess in every section o
the oountry.”

for next Monday in the Federal oourt.
The public is already familiar with the
faote at issue as a full report of the al-
leged facts have recently been pub-
lished. It isn,possible tbat,at least two
days will be occupied in the trial.
A man with one leg and whose'aide is
paralyzed was before the recorder yes-
terday. A complaint was made against
him alleging attempts bad been made
to lure peoplv to his room, whioh. it is
suspeoted was for the purpose of rob-
bery. The prisoner was fined the sum
of ten dollars.
It is expeoted that the present term
of the federal oourt will adjourn about
the middle of next week. Quite a num-
ber of the oivil suite have been contin-
ued, and the criminal badness has been

Farland tiled a suit for a divorce yes-
terday from his wife, Mary Ellen Me

Enrique Martinez and Plaoido Gar-
cia were brought before Justice Ellis
yesterday both charged with burglary.
They waived examination and were
bound over in the sum of $500 eaoh to
await the aotion of the grand jury.
Neither of them was able to furnish
bail and so they were taken back to the
oounty jail. Martinez is the Mexican

The case of the state of Texas against
Philips and Apolonia Duran, charged
with assault to commit murder, was
called for trial yesterday in the district
oonrt. However, as the parties were
not ready for trial the case was post-
poned until today. The defendants are
a brother and sister residing on East
Overland street. It is alleged, for the
purpose of revenge, the defendants sat-
urated a woman’s clothing with oil and
then tried to set their victim on fire. It
is claimed a man was the cause of the
difficulty between the two women.
Owing to the postponement of the Du-
ran case no business was yesterday
transacted in Judge Walthall’s oourt.
