The company has ample means to build the road, and if the Arizona and New Mexico road does not come to time in freight rates, work will be com- menced on the new line. A week ago last Friday Henry Ward and Jim Taylor, employees at the Carreta ranch in Old Mexico, had rather a close call from some Indians from the Spurley mountains, a branch of the Sierra Madre. They captured two horses belonging to the band and found a young heifer with an arrow sticking almost through her. The arrow is now at the First National Bank, having been brought up by F. H. Siebold who, in com- pany with D. W. Dana and Governor Stearns of El Paso, was in the mountains at the time, looking at some mines. The Indians are part of the band left by Geronimo at the time of his capture.
