L6uQUERQUE TAKES ONE.
In the Fourth Game of the Series Albu.
querque Defeats Ei Paso.

The hopes of the fans that Albu-
querque would take at least one game
IN the big base ball tournament at
the fair were fulfilled. And there is a
chance for them landing the second
one today.
Wicker, who pitched the first day
and was easily defeated, was used
again yesterday, but this time deliver
ed the goods. Ell Paso trotted out
their young star, Gibson, who was be-
ing saved to make the Duke City lads
look like 80 cents. 1t was evidently
his of day. or Albuquerque's day on
or something.
The score was 6 to 8, and the game
was very interesting. Three home runs
were made. two by Ell Paso and one
by the local team. and some sensa-
tlonal fielding was done.
FL Paso's long drives were made by
Nance SaAh kee'and Albuquerque's by
King.
Strang played at short for Albuquer-
querque, Tinker went to third base
and Williams went to right field. The
tean thus put up a stronger front and
would probably have taken the first
money had they lined up in this man

number of ropes to bring him out.
Alter he was thrown a couple of times,
the old nick in him was somewhat
taken. cut. But Pearl was slow and
the uronco broke away, shooting out
across the field. Five mounted cow
boys were after him, clad in their
straps" protected from the sun by
broad hats and ropes whirling in the
air, and was most picturesque and
exciting performance.
A rope was thrown over the saddle
horn, then another, with a puncher on
each side they came tearing down the
center of the arena. Here they slowed
up, giving the rope plenty of slack, the
bronco started to run back and when
the ropes frightened he turned lovely
fiip-fiop, landing on his head BY this
time there was no spirit of life left for
vicious bucking. Pearl acted like a
timid school girl, being afraid to get
within ten feet of the outlaw. The
gentle lamb was saddled and Pearl
was put on but she lost her grand
bluffing nerve and gave up without an
attempt to show that she could bust
broncos. She could not lose her wo-
man nature, when it came to a show
down, but she lost all her woman nat
ure last night, when she was out with
the boys doing the town.
At this juncture, while Pearl was
killing time, the most exciting per.
formance witnessed, which was not
scheduled on the program, was the
stampede of about thirty broncos.
The gate of the corral was opened
by someone, freeing all the outlaws.
Then the widest excitement prevailed
The broncos made a dash for liberty,
the crowd had got dangerously near
in their eagerness to see it all, and
they also made a dash for the same
thing in large numbers. They did not
wait to climb the fence, but falling
over under and any old way to get out
of the way of the band of devils. The
great arena was a mass of confusion.
Wild broncos, shouting and yelling
cowboys dashing all over the field, the
line of United States cavalry, and a
mass of fleeing humanity could be seen
| through the clouds of dust. To in
crease the perplexity of the frenzied
animals, the shouts of several thou
sand human beings rent the dusty air
Numerous attempts were made to
drive the broncos into the corral, but
they would break through the line
every time they came near the en-
trance. The confusion was so great
that the attempt to corral the broncos
was given up, and the crowd dispersed
better satisfied with the performance
than if the regular program had been
carried out.
The busting will be continued today
and no doubt there will be plenty
doing

GRANT COUNTY MURDER.
Preliminary Trial Of Gooch, for Killing
Ross, h Progress at silver City.


Special to Tne Citizen.
Silver City, N. NJ, Oct 1S.-The kill
ing of man named Ross by b. F.
Gooch on the Mimbres river last Mon
day afternoon has created considera-
BILE excitement in this city. Ii seems
that Ross leased part of the Gooch
ranch and he and Gooch had been hav-
ing considerable trouble for some time
past over different matters and Ross
is said to have made threats that he
would kill Gooch If he came on his
land. Ross was out loading hay and
Gooch went out to see him and states
that they had some words and Ross at
tackled him with a pitchfork and he
was forced to shoot him in self de-
fense. 1t seems there were no wit
nesses to the shooting and Gooch shot
five times, hitting Ross twice, killing
him instantly.
He went back to his house and told
his wife tnat he intended coming into
Silver City and giving himself up to
the officers. but evidently changed his
mind and instead went to Deming and
yesterday sent an old friend of his up
from Deming to engage attorneys for.
and if possible, arrange bond for him.
Gooch followed on the train the next
day and gave himself up to Sheriff
Goodell.
His preliminary hearing is in pro

BRONCO BUSTING.
1t was Lively While 1t Lasted-Pearl
Ward Did Not Ride.

Several thousand people shouting
and yelling to their hearts content
witnessed the greatest exhibition of
bronco busting, fast riding, lassoing
ponies and the fierce struggles of the
outlaw in ropes, that has ever ap-
peared on the arena at the fair
grounds. There was no acting or re-
hearsal performance, but every feat of
horsemanship was the result through
years of practical experience. 1t could
not be learned in a week, month or
year. The riding of the outlaw, roping
and throwing horses, and reckless and
daredevil riding of the bronzed COW
punchers, which the immense crowd
beheld, was only a sample of the every
day life on the plains.
Master of Outlaws" Frank Blake
began the wild and thrilling exhibition
by riding horse with a bad reputa-
tion for pitching, owned by the Weth-
erill Bros. Blake. who has an iron
nerve, had no sooner put his feet into
the stirrup than Billy began pitching,
but Blake was there all the time
never touching the leather.
In the drawing for position Bill
Jones drew first place. There was con-
siderable trouble at first to get the
bronco from the corral. With two
ropes around his neck he was dragged
out. Then the fun began. This out
law was small but a regular devil and
a hard fighter" He was given such
a choking that he settled down and
gave them an opportunity to saddle
him. When all the ropes were loosened
Jones made his mount He had no
sooner landed in the saddle than the
animals back assumed the appearance
of a dome and he went soaring into
the air He gave three wild leaps with
his head between his legs, then fell on
his side with Jones underneath.
When the horse was rolled off il was
discovered that Jones leg was broken.
He was just recovering from fracture
of the same leg, which occurred in the
same manner in April, Jones has a
wife and two children, and lives at 104
North Arno street, having lived here
about a month. He was carried from
the field and taken to his home.
THE Master of Outlaws" Blake took
charge of the vicious bronco, and
mounting. stayed with the outlaw,
which gave the finest exhibition of
pitching that has ever been witnessed
here. Blake began whipping the ami
NAL. and then they were of around
and around in the arena, then down
the track and back When he had him
down to a gallop he unsaddled and let
him loose
Pearl Ward. the champion lady rider
of the world, drew No. 2. A long, lean
hay with white feet was selected for
the lady bronco buster. 1t proved to
be a vicious ragger, that required a

to Citizen representative, "the races
this afternoon are the best have ever

Starter Field spoke the truth in the
words quoted above, for the free-for-all
pace, with Shecam, Winfield Stratton
and Primrose as the entries yesterday

ing as one could wish for.

grey haired people, all mingling. laugh
ing and looking for a good time.
The maskers turned out better than
last year, and the costumes and mas
querades were of larger variety and
more gorgeous. Mrs. Summers. the
costumer who is here from Denver did
a good business, There were pretty
little girls in pink fresh from the laun-
dry, and big fat men with hog faces.
There were Spanish courtiers and
young ladies dressed in knickerbock-
ers. There were soldiers in blue and
some of the gentle sex in blue that
were not soldiers. There were sailors
both masculine and feminine and one
particularly attractive one in white
sailor suit. who was of the more ten
der sex. The boys of the Fourteenth
cavalry had a good time. There were
devils who had girls. which reminded
one of Mary MacLane Pearl Ward

She apparently is past the mask stage.
Regardless of the fact that Pearl got

day afternoon she was white with rage

They were a little hard and some sore
noses. busted stiff hats and black eyes

battle was sonte thing fierce. The
streets this mort.ng gave evidence
that there was big doing. and tiny bits
of paper throwH last night will be
found in the ladies' bonnets for many
months to come.
The tissue paper streamers furnish
ed some fun and were very pretty

The midway amusements did good
business, probably the best of the

The Italian band helped to make the
evening a record breaker by several
times marching the streets. making
rag time music.

Open Houses.
The Elks kept open house and 1t is
needless to say that their banquet
table was sumptuously spread with
good things to eat and drink.
The saloons also kept open house
last night and many check was plac-
ed on the red and the green by fair
soft hands. Craps were rolled in styles
unknown to the veteran gamblers that
tended the tables. Some of the ladies
made money to buy confetti with and
some of the lovers and newly married
men went broke. 1t was real amusing.
