Socorro. N. NJ, July 31.-(SpeciaD
The Socorro county fair on Sep
tember 28, 29 and 80, promises to
be one of the big events OF the year
In New Mexico. The committee on
arrangements is preparing a program
which will be unequalled and this
fair will be over before the beginning
OF the territorial fair.
In addition to a program of sports
music and other features of extra or
dinary interest, a base ball contest
is being arranged in which 1t is
hoped that the Albuquerque Browns.

cipate. An excursion from Albuquer-
que will be arranged for September

furnishes one OF the biggest delega-
tons at Albuquerque's fair, 1t is ex-
crowd from the metropolis on that
occasion.

JUDGE LEAVES BENCH
IN POWERS CASE

GEORGETOWN, KY. July 31.-Speciai
Judge Robbins vacated the bench to-
day in the Caleb Powers murder
trial, following the filing OF an affi-
davit alleging prejudice. The action
OF Judge Robbins was unexpected by
the prosecution and a surprise to the
defense. y
The judge took up each allegation
of Powers and denied specifically
that they were true and then said IL
was too late to mar his record as a
judge by sitting in a case when ac-
cused of unfairness.
The governor was notified and an
effort Will be made to agree on an
other judge.

BEWARE EXPERT PRUNER.
FTuitmcn Bothered With Professional
Prllners Who Are FrOsts.

The expert pruner" who obtained
his knowledge of the business of
pruning orchards largely in the ''cow
countries" or somewhere else in most
cases, but has done much work in
this district to the detriment, gener-
begun to arrive again in numbers in
many parts of the Yakima district,
says the Yakima Republic.
Those who have once employed
the expert pruner" will probably not
need warning not to offend again
in that respect, but there are many
who may have not had an opportu-
nifty to lose on him, but who enjoy
the chance to profit by the unprofit-
able experience of others.
1t is no doubt true that frequently
a travelling orchard pruner knows his
business as 1t should be done in this
district, but many do not Conditions
are different here from those in other
districts where a number of these
travelling pruners obtained their ex-
perlence. That makes great differ
ence in the method employed in prun-
ing and the manner and time in
which the work is done.
Many of these peripatetic pruners
are armed only with a theory and
an Indifferent pruning outfit. The
home pruner, who knows the district
and its conditions, and most of the
orchardists, also, has the advantage
Of experience here. 1t is an advan-
tage to be taken into consideration.

TO CATCH ECHO HoLD.Ups.
Walla Walla Paper Tells OF UmatiIla's
Efforts TO Locate Criminals.


The Walla Walla Union tells OF
Sheriff Taylor's work in locating the
Echo robbers:
Bringing with him two reserters
Harry Henderson, alias Hayes, and
John O'Day, both Of the 14th caval-
ry, and on a still hunt for the two
hold-up men who held up b. u. Rip
per and wife at Echo and robbed the
cash drawer, Sheriff Til Taylor of
Pendleton, arrived in Walla WalIa
last night. Late in the evening
Sheriff Taylor received word that the
two suspects had been surrounded in
the hills south of Echo, and left over
the evening train for that place.
The two deserters who were turned
over to the military officials at the
barracks, each face serious charge.
Henderson deserted from the Boise
barracks, eloping with the wife OF
Sergeant Edward Brown, and came
directly to Pendleton. Henderson
deserted the woman but a few weeks
prior to her giving birth to a child,
leaving her in dire poverty. Later he
returned and was thrown into jail.
ODay faces a charge of plain deser-
ton.
The two men for whom Sheriff
Taylor is looking, entered the Ripper
store at o'clock Friday night, and
ordered Mr.. and Mrs. Ripper to throw
up their hands. They thought the
men were joking until the desperadoes
pulled their guns. The men robbed
the cash drawer Of s75 in cash.
After firing a parting shot at Cloyd
Oliver. man who had been notified
Of the robbery. the men made good
their escape. Sheriff Taylor is in
possession of complete descriptions Of
the men and feels assured they will
be apprehended within a few hours.
They are supposed to be hiding in
the hills south of Echo.

PASSENGER TRAFFIC DECLINE.
Single Combination Car Sufficient for
Northern Pacific Branch Line.

This morning the Northern Pacific
branch line train came in from Pas
co with nothing but the combination
baggage car for the passengers and
it is stated that henceforth the extra
coach will be left off regularly.
At the local N. P. office 1t is said
that traffic has fallen off to such
an extent that the extra coach is not
needed. Such being the case II is a
loss to continue running the coach
when loaded freight cars could be
hauled instead.
The removal of the extra coach
has caused complaint from the pat
rons of the road, who point to the
crowded car this forenoon as showing
the need of the other coach.
