DEPARTED FROM AN OLDTIME RULE SCHOOLS WILL OPEN THE DAY ArTEK THANKSGIVING. Board Was a Tlo on tho Subject and tho Motion to Close the Schools from Wednesday Till Monday Was Lost Water In tho Cold Air Duct at No. 15 State Deportment Will Be Asked to Send on Some of the 870,000 Appropriation Due the School District. This year the board of contiol has de parted from the time-honored custom of giving tho pupils a ThunltKllns vacation from Wcdnesdu until Mon duy, und decided ut the mcrtlns last nlprht to open the schools on Filday. Tho chance was not adopted without a struggle. John Glhboni was the most pronounced udvocuto of stinting up on Kilday. Ho put fotth tho aigument that the millr can do more satisfac tory wotk at this reason of tho year than in June, when the weather Is win in. nnd ho was against closing tho schools on Friday because- the teach ens' pay would go on just the same, whli h would bo equivalent to expend ing ncarlj $1,000 for nothing. Mr. Itarker was of n conttnry opin ion, although hi' admitted that tech nically it was ghlng the teachers pay for mm day from which the pupils would have no licnellt. The results ut tho end of the year would be tho same; the pupils would accomplish Just im much In the turn. The leading col leges nnd eduiatloiial institutions of the country huo a Th:mkgi lug ui j tlon until Monday and II has been the custom hero for u number of years'. Mr. Gibbons replied that two wrongs don't make a light, and he would be sutlslled to close the schools if the teacheis were docked a day's pay. Mil. JAYNirS ARGUMENT. 'Mr. Javne In nnswer to Mr. Uarkcr said if the suspension ot the schools for one duy made no differenecwhat would be the matter w ith closing them of toner aud saving tho expense? Mr. Shiies advocated no departure fiom the usual custom. In nil four roll-calls wene made on motions and amendments, and the lesult 'as the puno In each, a tie. Messis. Shiies, Casej, Roche, Nulls, Jennings, Schiiefer, Baiker. Lnng.in and Francois weie in favor of closing Friday and Messrs. O'Malley. Da Im, Phillips, May, Walsh, Jayne, Schwass, Gibbons and Leonard of ha Ing school on Friday. Chairman Francois suggested and a motion to the effect was can led that the secretin y write to the s-itate depait ment at Ilarrlsbuig to see If they can not send niirt or all of the S7C.000 ap propriation due the district fiom the state. Tho teachers' committee recommend ed the appointment of the following teachers: Nellie Fox In No. 2, Maltha Reese in No. 23, W. S. Davis in No. 20. Myrtle Perry in No. 28, Angle Reese In No. 31, Annie Rose In No. 3, Nellie Rurke In No. 30, Bessie Whitman in No. 27, and Edna Klaumlnzer temporal ily in No. 3. Mr. Cas?ey strove to have Mls Klaumlnzer made permanent, but later wlthdicw the motion. Mr. Jennings Insisted that the glades to which the teachers were appointed should be specified. This was not done in these appointments. AN ANNEX NEEDED. Mr. Langan, of the teacheis' com mittee, recommended the opening of an annex in a suitable building in the Diamond Flats to lelieve the ciowded condition ot No. 21 school, and a dele gation of citizens fiom that locality was present to protest against wluit they had been informed was the In tention of the board to send their chil dren to No. 20 school compelling them to moss tho Delawine, Lackawanna and Western tiacks. Two or the cit izens were allowed the pi 1 liege of tho lloor, and they got so obstiepeious that it was rescinded. Twenty or thiity pupils fiom the Flats go now to No. 21. and by right they should go to No. 20, on the other side of the jallroad. No. 21 Is crowd ed, und those twenty or thiity have been singled out to go to the annex when the building committee secuies a suitable place. When this was ox plained to the delegation It sottened their wrath Mi. Gibbons teported slv indies of water In the cold-air duct at new No. 13 school. The matter was lefeiied. The icport of the building committee by Its chairman, Mr. Sclulefer, ailslsed the inmeaso of the Janltcu's salniv at No. 27 X" a month, and the substitu tion of tho Sniead-Wills system In No. C und 2ti for the system now in opeia tlon theie. That pait of the icpoit was adopted, but the icport of bids on put ting In eleetilc lights tor night sehuol In No 11 school was defeated by n ote- of 13 to 3. The use of eleetilc lights was oideied in No. 3, 27 and 28, because thest, buildings aie alieady wiied. Night schools nine been en dued In the following schools: Nos. 2 3. 0, S, 10, 11, 13, 17, 20, 21, 2. 23, 24 "3 20, 27, 2S, 2!, 30. 31. 32 and 34. und the session begins at 7.13 and ends at 9 13.

Leav Ing El Paso, Texas, on the new ly constructed railroad, the El Paso nnd Northeastern, popularly known us tne White Oaks route, one Is not par ticularly Impiessed with an eighty-six iifllo ride over a scml-giassy mesa dot ted with cacti, but on arriving at Alnmoordo. which Is to be tho central point on this loute. we llnd things changed Alumogordo Is situated in tho Saciamento valley and about tlnee and one-half miles from the foot of tho Sacramento mountains. After leaving the tialn and taking a sweep itijr view of the country, one cannot help but admire the grandeur of the scenery fiom this point. Directly west f-ome forty miles, the jagged peaks of the San Andieas range extend north nnd south as far as the eye cun sec, to the iouth tome thirty miles nrc the Jarllla mountains, while thiough a break In tho Sacramento mountains, In a northeasterly direction, the gieat White mountain peak looms up, which I believe is one of the highest in New Mexico. To you who ate onlv used to our low Pennsylvania hills. It Is dllf cult to conwv even u fair Idea of tho kaleidoscopic beauty of u New Me-xlco sunilse and sunset on these mountains. The gradual change from the blue hills of the morning to the tinted shades which bunset pioducu is tiuly marv elous. This new town which, although not u mushroom town, has spuing up like u musluoom In the night. Is subdivided , into business und residence lots and llvc-acie f i tilt tracks. Everything about the tihtro hns n xrnnn nf nrtklti ' ever nlncc I ai lived hre, and fiom u little town of about 150, at that time, it has already developed into a pros perous pl.ic" of 300 people, and eveny day now conieis are arriving, both by tialn nnd western icgulatlon stvle overland. The town site is a desirable one, being' located directly opposite the Alamo Canon, whence we get an excellent supplj ot spilng water for I i'i Inking purposes At present this ' supply is conveved through a four-Inch main, but the Alumogordo Improve ment company Is now surveying for a twelve-Inch main and befoie the year is out wo will have water enouuh to supply a town of 7.000 Inhabitants, Alnmogoido Is already forging to the front as a business center and this and the bitrroundlnF" countiv, and some tventy-flve or thirty stores rep resenting almost every line of the mer cantile business are doing a thriving business. A new hotel of thirty-five looms Is now in course of construc tion and will bo completed in nbout a month, and we have a weekly news piper. A do, n or moie residences aie now oei upled but a gieat many people aie living tempoiarily In tents awaiting tho const! uctlnn of the new mill, which will give them cheaper lumber for building puipose-". The pride r,f tho town, however, Is its pnik. This park Is a full mile in length rnd J00 feet wide and is set out with young cotton-wood trees, which weie Imported fiom Texas Inst fall. They aie doing well under Irilga tlon. and In another year or two will give 'imple shade Piiipsyhanla. uve litte, wl.lc'i, by the way. Is the longest stieel In the town, extends the full length of the park. The altitude of Alamosoido is 4.J00 feet and the land gt-ntly slopes to the foot of the Sac iamento mountains, It was very hot h're In July and Au gust, but even with the thetmometer up to 113 de,tiees to 122 degrees, as It has been, one does not suffer as un der ninety degiees In tho Wyumln,: valley, nor do they presplie Th" evenings are always cool, ard just now It is necessary to have a lue at night. This Is owing to the seven weather which has lecently prevailed lu Colo rado and other not them states. The new saw mil now being con structed by tho Al.unogordo Lumber lompaio. omiposed of Seranton, Wll1 es-ltane and Plttton capitalists, is nc'iilv completed This mill is sit uated just west of the town and is ,i model plant of Its kind, being fitted tluougnout with the latent and most Impioved style of milling machineiv possible to pioduce Tht motive power consists of two 125 hoise-powor Stirl ing bolleis. The main mill Is li',3-.!i feet and adjoining this aie the lath aud shingle mills on one side and the 1 lanlng mill on the other. This mod en n plant will turn out 100.000 feet of lumber per day and will give employ ment to about 100 men In mill nnd tim ber. Almon everything In the fiult and vegetable line can be giown heie on the level.

This inncl, leaving Alamogonlo, runs along the base oi the mountain for six mil' s to -he foot of the La Luz canon and fiom here to tho sum mit of the Saciamcntos, nbout twenty miles, through rough and winding can ons. It is a wild, grand vie.v at every tuin Then are tlnee complete horse shoe curves on this line, us well us numeious shaip "iirves fiom twenty to thirty acr cent., nnd It has well been termed tho "Corkscrew iniltoad." The grade, which Is from six to ten per tent., lires uinldlv us you ascend the canons from 4,400 feet to nearly 9,00) feet at the summit, and it Is cer lulnly one of the most dltllcult pieces f engineering work In tho United States. About ten miles up the canon, at an altitude of about 0,300 feet, is ono of the finest sites for a sunitailutn MUUiWUUZ i Have You Seen Them ?

It Is at the Junction of two caiioun inside the tim ber line, and I doubt If anv moro beautiful view ot canon, iirrojn, val ley or mountain can be obtained from any other point in the Sacrameiilos. For several miles before reaching the timber line the canons and arroyas are covered with plnon nnd Jumper, with now and then some stretches of fr.11rtu.nt pine, but after roacMng an altitude of 7,000 feet, we come upon mile after mile ot ted smuce white and yellow pine, and (making asp, for milling put poses. Tht mountains are rolling and lovered with a magnificent body of timber, and the supply Is al most Incvhaustlble. Some of the tiees ui" five feet In diameter, the uvet.igo being about three. Tlie mountains on the western slope are veuy uirged, but after reaching the summit they giudtially slope east waul, nnd heie Is really a fanner's paiadise.

I saw the exhibit Horn this i utility which was taken to the Ter iltoilal fair at Albuquerque and Dallas, i'exns, but I do not wish to take up much space l dative theteto- sitfllco to say, the Saciamento exhibit took the palm at both fnlrs for the quality and size of most of Us ru eductions. Neither the lallway nor the lumber cimp.iry has any particular Intenesl In these binds bejond the summit nnd thev aie still hugely open for home stead entry- These landb weie closed to settlers several yeais nao as a foiest reserve, but with the coming of the Iron horse weie opened for entry In the spring of this yeai. As a productive countiy, 1 know of none equnl to it this side of Califor nia, and as no irrigation is needed here lu the mountain country it does av.u with a veiy expensive feature In west ern farming. The rainfall increases as one appioaehes tho summit and I have seen it laining many days In the mountains while Alnmogordo wouldn't get a dioj). Hunting Is fine on mountain unci plain. Deer and wild tuikey are plen tiful Inside the timber line, while quail, prairie doves and Jack inbblts can be shot on the outskirts of Alamogordo Antelope are plentiful soma twenty miles north and they are now "bunch ing" for the winter. I have sent them glazing with the Texas "longliorns" within twenty-live miles ot El Paso, Texas. The Incoming of the El Paso and Noithcastern i.nllioad and its exten sion Into the White Oaks countiv, eighty-live miles north, will no doubt open up mini rnl and agiicultural re sources of vast importance, and El Peso Is th3 iKitiu.il distributing point for the pioduetlons of this .ectlon.
