HO, For The Fair.

The territorial fair opens on Monday

lev and his co-laborers have this season
made preparations for by far the most
extensive exhibit ever made in the south

promises specially attractive horticultural,
agricultural, live stock and poultry dis
play, while the racing program is one
that would do credit to any of the older
state fairs. The NEW MEXICAN is
pleased to learn that great many Santa
Feans intend visiting Albuquerque during
this fair, and the exhibits from this city
will help out in the way OF making it at
tractive. The A., T. & S. F. has granted
q very liberal round trip rate from this
point. Tickets will be on sale Sunday,

at $3.45 for the round trip.

The work of knocking out the adobes
goes steadily on at the southeast corner
of the plaza. Hon. Sol. Spiegelberg said
to-day he remembered well when the
first stone for the foundation Of this an
Gent edifce was laid in 1859. Col. Will
lison says if those walls could talk they
would relate a tale OF blood and
thunder and powder and bullets
that would make the tender
foot's hair stand on end. The
rear of this building was occupied in the
early days as saloon known far and
wide, from Westport, Mo-, to Chuhuahus,
Mexico, as the Western Star" and just
above it on the second floor was a dance
hall where many bloody fray has been
fought out,

"Some fruit has been shown in this city

Peaches, plums, pears and grapes are but
a sample of the delicious harvest in that

this fruit, either in appearace or flavor,
and nowhere can it be excelled.

CALL ME BUCK"
A First-class 'Taint-so Story Told on Con.
gresham Etimunds.

n FIRST -cIass 'Tnint-so story Told on Con-
gresham Edmunds.
The secret of tho popularity of
Farmer Edmunds, tho Virginia Con-
gresham, has been pretty closely
guarded until a few days ago says tho
Washington Post. lie told friend on
tho floor that his constituents regarded
him as much moro importaAt man
than he really was. and it was his task
to let this impression grow as much as
it. would. Whenever any of Edmunds'
followers come TO Washington he makes
1T point to Introduce them to all the
prominent men he can meet. His tone
is generally one of familiarity, and
with McKinly, Reed, Cannon and others
he preiiXcs u title, such as major, or
speaker, or colonel, or anything that
Will give the visitor al impression that
he is on intimate terms with tho big
guns.
lie has. however, had one ambition
that, until last week, has always been
beyond his reach. Since Congressman
Kilgorc, or, as he is called by his fa-
miliar friends, "Buck kilgore," kicked
open the door leading into the lobby, he
has become famous throughout the
South, and everybody who comes to
Washington wants to see tho kicking
Congressman from Texas. Until few
days ago Farmer Edmunds has always
been obliged to deny an introduction to
his visiting constituents for the simple
reason that he was not acquainted with
Kilgorc.
This prcyed on his mind to such an
extent that in burst of confidence he
told one of colleagues that tho dream of
his life would be accomplished if he
could only call liilgore buck" ThN
friend, without saying anything TO Ed
munds, had Il conversation with Kill
gore and the result was that the states
man from Texas determined to CRAFTY
Edmunds' aspirations. lie accordingly
went over to Edmunds' desk. where the
latter was busy writing, and, tapping
him familiarly on tho shoulder, cx-
claimed, "iicllo, !tdmunds."
The Congressman from Virginia was
thundcrstruck. Holy Moses :" ic
calculated. For Il moment he could
scarcely believe his eyes. and he was
still further bcwildcrcd when Kilgorc
smilingly said: Never mind any for
malities, just call me 'Bucl,.'' Ed
munds almost tainted. He gaspcd for
breath. and then trcmblingly asked
HOW lOHS may call you BUCK: -
'As long as We are in the same Con
gress," WAS kilgore's answer. Farmer
lLdmunds took him ut his word. and his
colleagues say that since that time his
confusion has led him 10 call seventeen
different men BUCK" and he has writ
ten TO his constituents that he Will &C
cord them the honor Of an introduction
To Buck Kilgorc" whenever they come
to Washington. Kilgore enjoys the joke
hugely. as do all of Edmunds' colleagues
who arc in the secret.
