Then a cavalcade of about twenty
caballeros and vaqueros under the lead
ership of John c. Cline paraded around

legged wild horses were turned into the
ring, followed by a surprised looking and
very meek mule. After a deal of DASH

rope around the neck of one of the
horses, and the other and the mule were
allowed to amble Off TO the corral.
The horse which had been roped was
then saddled and bridled and capaliero
mounted but the beast had to be spurred
and whipped before he would go through
even a semblance of bGcking. Two
wild CD steers were next turned in but
very meekly sidled over alongside the
fence and waited. A couple of vaqueros
tried their hand at roping. and one sue
ceeded after several trials in throwing
and tying his animal; the other steer
was allowed to escape into the corral
1t was down on the bills for one of the
vaqueros to ride the animal, but he
didn't do it. Following this the horse
men gave an exhibition of fancy riding
and ended with fitting at the rings,
which closed their part of the exhibit
tion.
The program was closed by singing

TRIAL WILL BE RESUMED TODAY

Policeman w. T. Rollo was arraigned
yesterday before Judge Feagln on the
charge of burglary and grand larceny from
the millinery establishment of L. A. Davis.
He plead not guilty.
The hearing of evidence began at u
o'clock Adjournment was taken for dinner
and court was again convened at 2:15 p. m.
The prosecution rested at a few minutes
past and several witnesses for the defense,
including Mr.. Rollo, were examined. At 6
o'clock adjournment was taken until 10
o'clock this morning. The defense has one
more witness and then the argument will
begin.
The evidence introduced by the prosecu-
ton forms a strong chain. Every one in
connection with the millinery establish
ment identified the hat which, 1t is alleged,
was stolen by Rollo and no one could be
made to testify that the hat was sold him
or any member of his family. The cost
mark on bolt of ribbon which it is claimed
was taken at the same time was identi-
fed
When placed on the stand in his own
behalf, Officer Rollo claimed to have pur-
chased both articles. Evidence was intro
duced to corroborate certain details in his
testimony and also to prove that he had
always borne reputation for honesty. He
betrayed little emotion during the trial.
