trio of alleged highwaymen were cap
tured and lodged in jail here. ~,
The men are charged with blowing
the safe in the general store. Of Fred
Hirt, at Hills Siding. It is thought
they came on the midnight train and
went Immediately to work upon the
safe. They had just finished dyna1nit-
ing it when Hirt, who had been out late
to a wedding, drove up to the store
and the men Immediately took flight. ~
Hirt at once aroused the town and
pursuit was begun. Owing to recent
rains the trial of the fugitives was
easily followed. They took refuge in
the Blackstrap schoolhouse. ,gs.s..
Here they. defended themselves with

There is nothing so certain
in the world as irrigated farm
ing. It does not make any diff
ference how dry the season
may be, the irrigated farm
thrives, and its crops are al
ways in excess of non-irrigated
lands. The irrigated farmer is
his own rain maker and he sup
plies his growing crops with
moisture in just the quantity
and at just the time when they
require it.

of the most delightful seasons.

yesterdays STOCK MARKET
An Irregular closing at spotty RAINY.


New York, July S.-With liquidation
carried to the extent 1t had been in the
recent stock market, the bear operators
who have followed the decline are in
duced to growing caution as it proceeds
1t was the general opinion that to-day's
buying came In large part from uncov-
cred bears. The holiday interval i'm
pending tomorrow inclined the profess
sional operators to close up outstanding
contracts, anyhow. There was an evil
dent subsistence also of the selling pres
sure upon the market which was in full
force at the time of the previous clos
ing, and which was continued in the
early dealings to-day. The bears were
inclined to buy for covering purposes
even on this first break in prices, and
they pushed their demand when the
light pressure upon the market was
perceived.
This covering movement, however,
was conducted in an exceedingly leis-
urely fashion and gave so little evidence
of urgency or misquiet as to offer little
encouragement for the Inauguration of

the short position in the market. Pro-
fessional sentiment still shaped itself to
the view that any extensive rally in
prices would invite renewed liquidation
The call money market remained tight
with no sign of marked relaxation by
the return to the money market of divi-
dends and interest disbursed. Talk OF
