1, to a a DECEMBER. 11, 1905. ALBUQUERQUE EVENING CITIZEN PAGE FIVE. IF YOU WANT ANY OF TODAY'S NEWS Today You Must Take The Evening Citizen---There is No Other Way Here LIEUT. GEN.

CHAFFEE IN ALBUQUERQUE One of Three Chief's of Staff to Retire During the Year 1906. WILL SETTLE IN LOS ANGELES Hon. B. S. Rodey, who is an old friend of the general.

The topics conversation ran from the red school house in the lane to Los Angeles building lots, and from public social functions the capitol to statehood. General Chaffee is one of the seeing public men of wide experience, who think that joint statehood is the more economical form of the territories, and in question yesterday as to what he thought of statehood matters, said: "Why, it's quite obvious to me that you want joint statehood. I have always thought so. Single state government would be a burden to either territory, I'm surprised that there is any opposition to joint statehood, whatever." Despite his 63 years, General Chaffee is hale and hearty, and looks like he was good for the allotted threescore and ten, and then some, Mrs. Chaffee is also in robust health.

They formerly lived in Los Angeles, but sold out years ago at a good profit. They are now buying in Los Angeles, at a good profit to the other fellow. Lieutenant General Adna R. Chaffee, chief of staff, United States Army, who retires from the army on February 1, 1906, was an Albuquerque itor yesterday for forty-five minutes: The general was accompanied by Mrs. Chaffee and they were en route to Washington from Los Angeles, where they will settle when the general leaves active service.

There is more than a mere coincidence in the fact that the United States will have three retired lieutenant generals during the year 1906. General Chaffee will not be 64 years of age until April 14, 1906, but as a courtesy to General Bates, who is next in line in the chief of staff, he will retire forty-five days prior to that time, so that General Bates may ascend to the rank of lieutenant general in time to retire before he also is compelled to leave the service because of his age, Bates will be 64 years old in General. 1906, but he will resign the office to before that time. General Corbin Corbin will be 64 in September, 1906. General and Mrs.

Chaffee were met at the station by F. H. Kent, who was a schoolmate of Mrs. Chaffee, and WHAT DID HE MEAN? A well known retail merchant of this city has two sons of whom he is justly proud, or at least he wis until other night. On the night in question, the father had been bouncing the younger son up and do down on his knee, in "horsey" fashion.

Noticing the elder, son watching, the proceeding asked: "Would you like to ride 'horsey' on papa's knee?" To which the boy replied: "Huh, that's nothing. Yesterday I rode on a sure nuff donkey." THE SANTA FE ORATORS Those who will compete for the privilege of representing the Santa Fe high school in the territorial oratorical contest to be neld at Albuquerque on December 27, are as lows: H. Harvey, Harry Hogle, Lotta Newhall, Eva Wientge and Laura Wood. The local contest will take place at the high school on the evening of December 15, instead of on the 27th. It is expected that there will be ten schools represented in the territorial contest and much interest is being manifested in the -New Mexican.

HE IS MAKING FOR MEXICO It is thought that Humphrey wife murderer and desperado, may be headed toward Albuquerque, and drop into the city, maybe for a breathing spell in the flight he is undergoing from the off-! cers of the law, who are scouring country for him. The sheriff's office has received a circular from Sheriff Pacheco of Tueson, which gives a description of O'Sullivan, describes the brutal der of the fellow's wife, and offers a reward of for his capture, providing it is made within six months, from November 24, 1905. The alleged crime was committed about a mile from Tucson, some time prior to November 9.

In a lone cabin O'Sullivan is alleged to have attacked his spouse, killing her with a hatchet. The body was not found for several days afterwards. A search for O'Sullivan proved futile, the general belief being that he is making for Mexico. The accused murderer's description is as follows: Age, 35 years; height, feet 6 to 8 inches; weight, 150 pounds; plexion, light; build, medium; hair, brown: eyes, blueish brown; nationality, Irish-American: trade, carperter; speaks Spanish fluently. LEFT WITHOUT SUPPORT TAKES HER OLD NAME Kittie Butler was another woman who was made happy by a divorce decree in Judge court.

Her charge of desertion was fully sustained, it being shown that the husband, William G. Butler, has not contributed to the wife's support for upward of two years. He is now in Bisbee, Ariz. Mrs. Butler is a woman of apparent refinement.

Before her marriage to Butler she was Mrs. Kittie B. Brooks, a widow. That name was restored to her in the decree. She and Butler were married in Ardmore, I.

in May, Butler, the deserting husband, is a printer, and has worked in the various offices of this territory and Arizona. He worked in the composing room of The Citizen several months ago, and one Saturday night, after he had received his pay check, he left the city without notifying the office of his intention to leave. At. that time, so it is alleged, a woman was in the case, and the local printers and boarding house people came out flatly and stated that the woman. if she did not leave the same night Butler left, followed him a few days later to Bisbee, Ariz.

ROBERT HINDMAN BURIED LODGE OF ELKS RENDERED ITS RITUAL--REV. H. A. COOPER DELIVERED ADDRESS. The funeral of Robert Hindman was conducted from the undertaking parlors of A.

Borders at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon. The burial of Mr. man, whose death occurred several days ago, was delayed until J. 0. Hindman, a brother, could reach Albuquerque, Mr.

Hindman arrived last evening. The impressive services were in charge of Albuquerque lodge, Order of Elks, which rendered its ritual. The deceased was a member of the man, lodge of Elks, where he was generally respected and teemed. Rev. Hugh A.

Cooper, in his address, paid the memory of the deceased a touching tribute. A large number of friends attended the services, the beautiful floral offerings which were laid on the casket, ing the esteem in which all held Mr. Hindman. Burial was in Fairview cemetery. JORDAN'S CAPTURE NETTED OFFICERS $1,100 MAN WANTED IN THREE STATES, DOOMED TO FACE CHARGES.

If nothing happens to progress, United States delashathet Foraker and Deputy Harry Cooper will. land Bank Robber Thomas Jordan in the hands of the United States authorities at Vinita, some time tomorrow. Foraker and Cooper left for the Indian Territory with Jordan yesterday on train No. 2, and unless the trains become disconcerted or Jordan should accidentally make his escape while en route, they will have finished their mission by tomorrow and have secured their reward.

MUCH CLAIMED RING CASE IS SETTLED Mrs. Gravelle Gets Jewel Back by Justice Craig's Decision. THE PAWNBROKER IS OUT $15 The pretty diamond ring, which' playfully Justice of the Peace Craig slipped on his little finger Friday last, has, by the latest and final turn of the case, been returned to its original owner, Mrs. Fannie C. Gravelle, of North Second street.

This little diamond ring, although worth but $50, has been the cause of as much trouble and expense as a whole box of the glittering jewels might have been. It has finally brought joy back to Mrs. Gravelle, but sent $15 worth of sorrow to the heart of L. G. Rosenfield, the pawnbroker.

The story of the diamond ring has already been told in these columns. In a nutshell, a boarder of Mrs. Gravelle's named Gecrge Miller, some time ago fell in love with the ring, and after slipping the jeweled circlet of gold upon his finger, forgot to r'eturn it before giving way to the temptation of pawning it for $15 at the store of L. G. Rosenfield.

Miller took the next train out of Albuquerque, mailing, before he left, a letter to Mrs. Gravelle, telling her where the ring was, and that she could get it by paying the amount demanded by the pawn broker. Mr. Rosenfield declined to surrender the ring, however, and so Gravelle replevined it and the litigation was aired before Justice Craig, with the result that the court decided that Mrs. Gravelle was entitled to the ring in question.

It was accordingly returned to her. It is now up to Mr. Rosenfield to locate Miller and seek revenge from him. This he will probably do, and it will probably mean a term in the penitentiary for that person if he is brought to justice. MAHARA'S MINSTRELS The most diverting novelty prom ised by Manager Matson for the coming theatrical week, is the famous Mahara's minstrels, known from Maine to' California, as the banner colored minstrel organization of America.

The entire performance scintillates with a sparkle of originality that has made this company the most popular of all traveling colored attractions. The company comprises a membership of the very best artists, both ladies and gentlemen, known to the colored fession. There is not a white face in its ranks, although in its chorus are dozen pretty young women, who, it will be difficult to discover from their lighter sisters. This is considered a new departure in minstrelsy by Mahara brothers, who promise many more novel features which will be seen for the first time in this city. he costumes and scenery are entirely new and Manager Matson is positive 'ne has secured one of the brightest treats for his many patrons on December 16.

A. Ferrin, of the Northern Mining Trading company, operating at Nome, Alaska, spent yesterday in the city and night for Magdalena, Socorro county, in company with R. W. Hadden, the mining engineer. Mr.

Ferrin and Mr. Hadden will investigate the mines of the district, with a view to investments. Mr. Ferrin considers Nome greatest placer mining county in the world. The Northern Mining Trading company have been operating in Nome since the year 1900.

In 1900 Mr. Ferrin, was on his return to the frozen from a trip to the United States, when the ship ne was aboard became entangled in an iceberg and was carried far -up into Bering' strait. They were tied up in the ice for sixty days endured many hardships. A storm finally broke the ice, allowing the ship to work its way clear sea again. Mr.

Ferrin says that Alaska is very much in the same predicament as the southwest territories regarding representation in congress, the only difference being that Alaska only for representation through dellegates, while the territories desire senatorial representation. At a meeting held at Portland recently, Alaskan interests appointed three delegates to congress. There was some question, however, whether all three would be seated, and it was agreed between the three that if congress would not of them, one would delegates, do, and this one was chosen. Alaska is governed by a sion from the United States, consisting of a governor and three judges, which is a form of government still more inferior to a territorial government, and the people of that demain believe they are entitled to a territorial form of government, and are making an effort to secure it. JOHN H.

BEARRUP WAS SUCCESSFUL WRITES HOME THAT ALL WAS LOVELY AT CONVENTION OF TEXAS FARMERS. John H. Bearrup, president of the Rio Grande Woolen Mill company, who went to Texarkana, Texas, to attend a convention of the "Lone Star" state farmers, exclusive mention of which was made in The Evening Citizen, has written home that "everything passed off lovely at the conven-35c tion." He wrote no other particulars, explaining that he would latter part of this week. It is to be inferred from the optimistic tone of Uncle Johnny's letter that all expectations were fulfilled. The convention was attended by 1.200 delegates, representing 500,000 tillers of the soil.

Mr. Bearrup expected to sell enough Rio Grande stock to equal at least $1,000,000. The breezy tone of Mr. Bearrup's letter, leaves little doubt in the minds his friends but what he has realized this expectation. With the money, a commodious and modern cotton and woolen mill will be erected, in all probability near Albuquerque and near the site of the present mill.
