The pride of every housekeeper is her table service, and nothing adGs so much to her pleasure as the ability to place on her table a few pieces of cut glass; but cut glass is a luxury in which the majority of housekeepers cannot indulge. This fact has encour- aged manufacturers to search for a substitute and they have found it in Pres-Cut, which is made heavy and in cut glass patterns. The process used not only strengthens the ware but gives it the brilliancy of the genuine cut, and this lustre will last as long as the article itself. We have an as- sortment of this ware and the price is no more than the same styles made in common glass. Come and examine 1t.

Acting Upon Order issued by Court Sheriff PerfeCtO
ArmijO Locks Removed
Official Up.
HAD TO BATTER DOWN DOORS TO COUNTY JAIL
New Sheriff Now in Full Possession of County Jail and
Prisoners and Court Will Not
be Delayed.

The following from Tuesdays
Albuquerque Citizen shows that
so far righteousness still prevails
in the legal proceedings which
were instituted because of Gov
ernor Otero's removal of the
Hubbells and Eslavio Vigil from
office in Bernalillo county:
This afternoon at o'clock
Judge Ira A. Abbott announced
his decision in the case of Thom-
as S. Hubbel VS.. the district
clerk on the petition for man
damus to compel the clerk to
cease to recognize Perfecto Ar
milo as sheriff and to again rec
ognize Hubbell as the officer.
THE court quashed the writ
for mandamuS and its judgment
goes on to recite that the court is
bound by the decision in the
Eldodt case and can not enter
into the validity of the govern
or's action. That said Perfecto
Armijo is prima facie sheriff and
is entitled to the Office, all pro-
cesseS issuing from said court,
etc, although the court does not
recognize said Armijo as the de
facto officer. The recognition is
to stand until quo warranto pro-
ceedings or until the case is
finally settled in a higher court,
THE court in its decision to-
day has not in any way entered
into the merits of the case or the
validity of the governors action,
or does the decision have any
bearing whatever on whether OF
not the charges against the par
ties in the suit are true.
The following from Thursday
evenings Citizen will throw some
additional light upon the forego-
ing:
This afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
Perfecto Armijo, the newly APP
pointed sheriff of Bernalillo coun-
ty. called on Thomas $. Hubbell
at the court house and served
notice on him that he would
give him until 10 o'clock tomor-
row morning to turn over the
records, Office, etc, of the sher-
iff in the court house, and the

HUBBELL IN TROUBLE
The Ex-BOss Of Bernalillo Oout J
Seems to Be Travelling a Very /
Rough Road. 'rt,
INDICTED BY THE GRAND JURY
Charged with Obtaining Money un-
der False Pretense, and Slavic
Keeps Him Company.

Every day furnishes additional
evidence of the fact that whole
some influences are at work to
purge Bernalillo county of the
political impurities by which il
has been so long infested. Wit
ness the following from last
evenings Citizen:
THE grand jury is still grind
ing out indictments at the rate
of a dozen or so day. Among
the indictments returned toda !.
were one against Frank A. Huhs
bell, recently removed from tho
Office of treasurer and collector
of Bernalillo county by Governor
Otero. The indictment charges
Mr.. Hubbell with obtaining mon
ey under false pretenSes. He
was arrested and Immediately
gave bond.
"Eslavio Vigil, late county
school superintendent, drew an
other indictment today. making
two that the present grand jury
has returned against him up to
date. The indictment charges
him with obtaining money under
false pretenSes.
A number of other indict-
ments were returned, but as war
rants have not been served, the
clerk could not give out any in
formation about them.
so far as is known now the
jury will wind up its work to-
morrow and make its final report.
1t is rumored that before the jury
adjourns it will return a number
of indictments against the saloon
keepers of the city for violating
the Sunday law, with relation to
allowing the saloons to remain
open on Sunday"

keys to the county Jail. Sheriff
Armiio intended to take possess
sion today, but Mr.. Hubbell re-
queSted him to wait until the re-
turn of Mr.. Childers, his chief
counsel, who is expected To ar
rive tomorrow morning on the
train from the south. Mr.. Hub
bell desires the advice of his at
torney before making any move.
Sheriff Armiio says that he
must have possession of the Jail
and records III the SherilT'S of
flee in order to properly perform
the duties of his office. 1t is his
intention to give the ouSted Of
fetal until tomorrow morning to
vacate, and if he does not do so
by 10 o'clock, the new sheriff
will take possession, anyway.
1t is not thought that any vio-
lence will occur, but that Mr..
Hubbell will abide by the courts
decision in his case"
The latest feature in this inter-
esting case was added Yesterday
when ThoS. 5. Hubbell, on re-
fusing to deliver the county Jail
into possession of Sheriff Armiio
under order of the court, was
committed to Jail for contempt.
Says the Citizen:
Sheriff Armijo was followed to
the county Jail by quite a large
crowd. Arriving at the Jail, he
demanded admittance, but the
iailer refused to open the gate of
the barricade. A deputy was
sent for an AK and sledge hammer
and the gate was broken down.
1t was also necessary To batter
down the door to the Jail before
the sheriff could gain admittance
to the Jail proper. Mr.. Hubbell
was then taken into the Jail and
locked up.
"AS a result of this afternoon 5
proceeding Sheriff Armiio is now
in full possession of the county Jail.
1t is understood that when the
district court conveneS on Monday
he will have full charge as sheriff
and no delay will result on
account of the present con-
troverSy.

ATTEMPTED TRAIN HOLD.UP
Last Night between Socorro and
Belen, Presence of Mounted
Police Frustrated Attempt.

Passengers from the north this
morning told a thrilling tale of
an attempted hold-up of the train
this side of Belen. The train
came to "A Stand-still two or three
times and the train hands passed
hurriedly To and fro through the
cars. The cautious but hurried
footsteps of three or four men
were heard on the tops of the
coaches and the Pullmans, and
word soon passed along that the
train was about to be held up.
By chance Lieutenant Cipriano
Baca and two private members
of the mounted police force were
among the passengers. They
promptly loaded their guns and
proceeded to investigate the sit
uation. No sooner did they APP
pear outside the train. however,
than the signal was given and
the would-be robbers fled into the
darkness.

$ISO.OOO TO ALBUQUERQUE
That Is What the Territorial Fair
Is Estimated to Have Brought
the Duke City.

II is the general opinion that
last weeks Albuquerque fair was
the most successful ever given
by the fair association of the
Duke City. Larger crowds were
present, more money was spent,
and everybody got more for his
money than ever before. That
the visitors were not the only
ones to profit by the occasion is
shown by the fact that, accord
ing to a careful estimate OF the
Citizen, the receipts of the busi-
ness men of Albuquerque were
increased by at least Sl50,000 by
virtue of the presence of the
pleasure seekers in the city. A
large part of the credit for the
success of the enterprise is due
President w. III. Greer, secretary
ID. X. b. Sellers, and other of
ficers of the fair association,
though the loyal support given
them by merchants and other
citizens must also be taken into
account.

PESTIfEROUS SCREW.WORM AGAIN
Don Severe A. Baca of This City Is
the Victim This Time.


Severe A. Baca is the latest
victim of the sore ew-worm fly in
this vicinity. Nearly three
weeks ago Mr.. Baca took one of
the peStiferous insects from his
nose. About a week ago he be-
came afflicted with severe pains
in his nose and head. Doctor
Duncan was called and on becom-
ing convinced of the cause of the
trouble injected into the patients
nostrils a generous quantity OF
the standard remedy, which
brought forth no less than a hun
dred screw worms, some of them
an inch long and an eighth of an
inch in diameter. About fifty
more have been taken out since.
Mr.. Baca waited SO long before
calling for assistance that his
case looked pretty serious for a
time, but he is now quite COM
Portable and will doubtless be
himself again in a few days, 10
the great delight of his large
circle of relatives and friends in
Socorro and vicinity. There
have been several cases of this
sort in and about Socorro III the
last few months, but while some
of them have proved fatal they
are not very dangerous if attend
ed to early.

Yesterday was the day of San
Miguel, the patron saint of the
local Catholic church. The
usual church services were con-
Quoted but the procession had to
be dispensed with because of the
clustering wind that blew. This
fact, together with the fact that
all games Of chance were prohib-
tied on the plaza by the local
officials made the celebration an
exceedingly quiet one as compar-
ed with former observances of
the kind. There was a dance in
the opera house Thursday night
and another last night, both of
which were much enjoyed by
those present.

The classes in geology under
President Keyes will soon enter
upon practical field work. One
of the first considerations will be
the testing of the new topo-

ic copies have just been received
and they are the most beautiful
maps yet produced by the Fed
eral government. The area is
