Notice to Taxpayers.' Estancia, N. M., December 15, 1913.

Notice is hereby given that I will be in my office in the courthouse at Estancia on and after January 1, 1914, to receive returnsof property for taxes for the year 1914. Attention of propertyholders is called to the following, from the assessment laws of 1913:

Sec. 2. Every inhabitant of the state, of full age and soundmind, shall, in each year, make a list, in such form as may be pre-scribed by the State Board of Equalization, of all property subjectto taxation of which he is the owner or has the control or manage-ment. ' '

Sec. 4. All such lists must be made and returned to the countyassessor, at any time after the first day of January and not laterthan the last business day in the month of February of each year,

and a failure on the part of any person to make and return suchlist within the time aforesaid shall subject him to the penaltyhereinafter provided for such failure.

Sec. 5. There shall be exempted from taxation, property ofeach head of a family to the amount of two hundred dollars, pro-vided that the person claiming such exemption shall in addition towhat is required by the preceding section also make oath that heis suah head of a family, and has not claimed and will not claim,such exemption in any other county for the current year. Thisexemption shall be construed as extending to property, title towhich is held by the wife as well as to property title to which is heldby the husband, but not so as to give two exemptions to one family.

Sec. 10. If any person shall fail to render a true and completelist óf his property as hereinbefore required, the assessor shallmake such list according to the best information he can obtain,and such person shall be liable to a penalty of twenty-fiv- e percentupon all tax levied against all of his property to be collected thesamé as any other portion of the taxes, and, if any such personshall knowingly make a false or defective list of his property heshall be liable to a penalty of twenty-fiv- e per cent upon the fullamount of all taxes, levied against him, and his property, andshall also be deemed guilty of perjury and punishable accordingly.

next year?He walked the streets until his head

swam from the llquoi. It was verydark and tbe rain fell steadily. Graveswas wet to the Bkin. He walked animmeasurable time, until at last, looking up, ne saw a house.

A flame of anger burned In hisheart, hotter than the fire in his brains.Good resolutions! What were theyfor such as he? They were for tberich, for those who could afford tokeep the laws! He was no fool to bebound by such a code.

He crept up the garden, felt a lowerwindow, and found that he could raiseit. A minute later he was groping inside a aining room.

uunuuHiy ne struck and lit amatch. Then he gasped in astonishment. Tor On the buffet, carelesslylaid out, was a galaxy of silver plate.That central piece that flat tray,which he could put under his coatand walk away with, must be wortha couple of hundred dollars alone!He would take it on his way out. Heopened the door and crept upstairs.

There were two rooms at the headof the first flight. The door of onewas closed ; the second door was open,and inside, by the light of the loweredgas jet, Graves could see a tablestrewn with rings. He crept In andstood staring at them. There werenearly a dozen of them diamond,pearl, sapphire, cat's eye, flashingemeralds and rubies. It was the dress-ing table of some wealthy womanwho. . . ,

There was somebody in the bed!An old, white-haire- d woman who lay

there, hardly breathing, flat, withwhite hands picking at the bed covers!

Graves snatched up a handful of thebaubles and turned. Suddenly twopowerful arms caught him as In a viseand he looked up into the face of themiddle-age- man. "

'Come outside, you you dog!"whispered the other. "Caught in theact, you dirty sneak-thief- ! Let melook at your face! So you would roba dying woman, would you? I'm go-ing to strip the hide off you before Icall the police."

"I didn't know " Graves babbled.A feeble voice from tbe siak bed

made both start"John!" whispered the sick woman."John! It's you, dear John! I knew

you would come home!"The captor and the captive stood

motionless, thrilled by the pity in thevoice. ,

'John, won't you come here and kissyour old mother?" pleaded the voice.I knew that I should live to see you

again."The middle-age- man whispered into

the ear of the thief.'Her son was killed In an automo

bile accident last week. Now's yourchance. I'll let you go if "

"You're coming to me, aren't you,John?"

"Yes," muttered the thief, and withunsteady footsteps he staggered toward the bed, found it, and sank downupon a chair. He felt the hand ofthe old woman close upon his.

"Are you John? Are you my boy?I cannot see. Tell me that you areJohn," the old woman whispered.

"Yes, I am John," tbe convict whis-pered back.

She said no more for a while butseemed to doze. Gently, by almostimperceptible degrees, the man in theroom lowered the gas light till It wasonly a little twinkling flame in thedarkness. And the thief sat motion-less, his band held tightly in the lightclasp of the dying woman.

After a long time she roused her-self. "Johnny," she whispered, "turnme so that I can put my lips to yourear." And the convict turned tbeshrunken old body reverently, andwith a new and strange fearlessness.Then the old woman spoke again, andso low and weak were her tones thathe could only grasp them by bendingbis ear till her lips touched it

"Johnny," she said, "I want yon tobe a good boy after I am gone. I

"Come along, 752," said the headwarder cheerfully, clapping an enormous hand upon the young man's shoul-der. "The chief wants to say good- -

Dye to you. ,The convict stepped out of bis cell

and followed the heed warder obedi-ently. Three years of discipline badtaught him to ask no questions, todemand no reasons. He hardly daredto hope that tbe pardon board hadgranted bis petition.

;"'Tention! Eyes front! said thehead warder mechanically, and theconvict mechanically obeyed. But thegovernor stretched out his band andtook the convict's In a hearty clasp.

"Tbe board of pardons has grantedyou your freedom, Graves," he said."I strongly recommended it at thelast monthly meeting. I know thatyou will run straight in future. If youshouldn't, remember that the dishonorand shame will be mine, and It willbe Just so much harder for tbe rest ofus. Here's a letter from your motherIn Mapleton," he added, handing themissive to the prisoner.

Graves read it and the governorwatched him curiously. The youngfellow had Impressed him favorablyever since he had entered the peniten-tiary three years before to serve afirst sentence for forgery. He hadbeen a model prisoner; but he Beemedcuriously hard. Even now he seemedunaffected either by the letter or bybis release. He folded the missiveand put it in the handkerchief pocketof his serge tunic.

"Yes, sir, I'll run straight in future,"he answered.

"Good," answered the governor."And my advice to you Is, go home toyour mother. You have about thirty-seve- n

dollars coming to you. Gohome, face the world In your hometown, be a man and begin your lifeanew. You will find people kinder:than you Imagine. Good morning."

He grasped the prisoner's handagain and dismissed him. Graveswent out Subdued and deferentialthough he seemed, he remained total-ly unmoved. The governor shook hishead as he watched him pass throughthe. doorway.

As a matter of fact, Philip Graveswas deeply moved, but for all tbat hehad not the least intention of return-ing home. He took the train to thecapital and spent his money In twodays' of riotous living.

The second evening found him pen-

niless. It was cold and dismally wet,and the long tramp through the dismalsuburbs had not raised his spirits. Hesat down on the sidewalk and burledbis bead in his bands. That'was thefirst time he had ever seriously sonsid-ere-

Graves felt In his pockets. Atthe bottom of one, hitherto overlookedby him, was a dime. Graves knewwhere he could get all the whisky hewanted for a dime if he chose thetime' when the bartender was notlooking bis way. He went there.

Why, that was just what the gov-ernor had said!

He held bis hand out and the othertook it and grasped it warmly. Sud-denly Gravea remembered. He pulledout from his pocket a handful ofshimmering rings. He placed themupon the dressing table and walkedlightly out of the room. He did notshuffle now, for his heart was filledwith lightness and for the first timein years he was at peace.

New Castle, Colo., Dec. 17. All butnine of the thirty-seve- n bodies hadbeen removed from the Vulcan minenear here early today where everyperson in the main workings of themine was killed instantly Tuesday byan explosion of mine gas.

Nine bodies remain in the upper liftabove the west entry and in this man- -

nor all the bodies were accounted for.One of the rescuers, overcome with

fatigue which followed, prolonged useof the oxygen helmet, fell in chamber23 west, but was taken out alive by hisfellow crewmen who were followingcIobo behind in the exploration work.They carried him to the air shaft,where he was quickly revived andtaken to the surface.

Scores of relatives and friends ofthe victims stood in the snow at theentrance watching the rescuers carryout the bodies, one at a time.

The scene was unlike that of mostmine disasters, in that there was notthe slightest hope that any of thosecaught in the terrific blast had sur-vived. The chief desire of those whowaited was that their loved onesmight be recognizable. In a majorityof instances, even this hope met dis-

appointment.Virtually every one of the dead min

ers was born In Colorado. ,

All were Americans and many of theunmarried were sons of ranchers andhad lived in the vicinity of New Cas-tle all their lives.

Sixteen of the men were married.In casting up the situation it wasfound that fifteen women were leftwidows and thirty-fou- r children madefatherless by the explosion. One of thevictims became a father at almost theIdentical moment that he was hurledto his death by the blast. This onewas Herbert Woods, twenty-eigh- tyears old. .

The exact cause of the explosion isnot known definitely but it ls the opin-ion of the mine officials that the ac-

cumulated gas was set off by a min-er's candle.

They went to work In the mineafter the union workers had struck.

The Vulcan mine, now owned by theRocky Mountain Fuel Company, hasalways been known to be dangerouson account ot the great quantity of gasthat forms In its workings. The menemployed there knew of this danger.

The two men in the upper level whoescaped Injury were W. J. Flnley andJohn Dawson. An air passage in theirpart ot the mine prevented the gasfrom forming there.

Since 1898, when forty-nin- e menwere killed In an accident much sim-ilar 'to that of yesterday, the Vulcanhas been the dread of all workers Inthe coal region.

"Like a sacred ox," Glass could notconceal his contempt

"I'll give him some pointers; it willall help." But Speed was nervousand awkward so awkward, in fact,that the coach finally gave it up as abad Job, saying:

"It's no use, Wally, you've got foolfeet."

"I have, eh? Well, I didn't breakthem getting out of Jail."

"The less said about that Jail thebetter. I'm In trouble myself."

"It's his first love," said Stover, slmply. The other foreman exploded IntoHoarse laughter, saying:

If Covingtonran in Speed's place, how could he ef-fect his rival's exposure? On the waytback to the house he had to thinkpretty rapidly.
