John Bentley Bane had his face
fixed for that pie eating business
but John got gold-bricked.
Mr.. Morris of Durango would have
had a pleasant day only he could not
lose his domestic affiliations.
Hoagland got seven watches on the
first afternoon, according to his part
ner, which was doing real well.

he couldn't see the ball because there
were so many diamonds before his
eyes.
Tom Graden is accused of soliciting
votes, in anticipation of this county
joining Colorado soon. Tom would
not work in vain down here.
Pennington places no financial
faith in its ball team. Flora Vista
was here in force and their ball root
ers lasted the full nine innings.
The only criticism found with the
entire celebration was that the last
day should have been first. The
second day more than repaid the big
crowd that witnessed the sports.
Two broad gauge coaches, one
narrow gauge coach and two box
cars were unable to bring all the
Durangoites down who wanted to
come. McAtee ought to increase
his rolling stock.

HAYWOOD Trial Ending.

The long trial of w. d. Haywood
is drawing to close. The defense
has introduced evidence to show tn at
in many particulars Orchards con-
fession is false. In instances where
Orchard implicated Others in his
bomb making and firing, the defense
has put these accused persons on the
stand in direct contradiction. Orch
ard testified that he had placed forty
sticks of dynamite in the Goddard
bomb. The. defense shows that forty
sticks ofdynamite will not go in a
box the.size,of the one dug from the
gate of he'Goddard home. In other
particulars Orchards story is dis
credited. Haywood and Meyer will
be the last witnesses for the defense
and then the prosecution will intro.
duce rebuttal evidence.

IDEAL TIME
IDEAL CROWD
ideal WEATHER

The big celebration held sat Aztec
son July and passed successfully
ifrom every point of view. There
was large crowd here from all parts
tof this county, :and the train brought
in about 500 from Durango. A clear
sky greeted the visitors and nothing
occurred to mar the festivities with
1.-THE exception of the breaking of Ed
Fosters ankle by race horse.
Attired n.flags and bunting Aztec
waited her.guests eagerly and every
comfort and want of the 1000 people
here were attended to in spirit Of
true hospitality that brought many
compliments.
With the arrival of the train at
10 o'clock on the Fourth a procession
,headed by Marshals Gilbreath and
Scott marched to Currents grove,
where Hon. w. A. Reese delivered
"a splendid patriotic oration. Music
lby a large chorus under charge of
Miss CarrielEblen and stirring tunes
by the Durango concert band con-
,oluded the exercises at the grove.
The crowd then hunted dinner. At
1880 the ball game betweeniL La Plata
and Pennington took place. 1t was
"a good contest but the strong Farm
lington team carried off the game by
ia score of to 4.
Races followed the ball game
Hudson of Pennington won the fast
horse race with Jack Pot, splendid
chestnut runner. Mancos Pearl took
second money.
In the pony races E. H. George won
first money and Brown second.
In the bucking contest the horses
failed to come up to the standard of
real bronchos but this was no fault
of the riders. Linn Blancett won the
money.
The street sports were then held
sand atl0t;of fun resulted.
In the evening both the dances
were we'll patronized. The band
rendered excellent service and played
almost constantly.
On the second day the first event
was the ball game between Flora
Vista and Aztec. The game went to
Aztec by a score of 2 to 10. The
p'toAing, &C IonSstloot 'f5I S.o.-a
Vista and the batting of Swimming of
Ethe same team were features.
The afternoon sports opened with
a Mexican rooster pulling contest,
which was exciting in the extreme
and was won by Cliff Farmer, with
George Blancett and Bardin of La
Plata close seconds.
Then followed the ball game for
the $50 purse between Aztec and
Pennington. Aztec had played one
game in the morning an which John
Austin did the twirling, and the
regular pitcher, Roder Hilderbrand
went into the box for the locals.
A tremendous crowd cheered on the
players and the game that ensued
was the best that has been seen here
iin some time. Danburg was in the
box for Pennington, which team was
weakened by the loss of a good
player called home by his employer
who does not take sufficient interest
in his home team to encourage it,
However, the Pennington boys put
np the real thing in a ball line and
were graceful losers. Danbure
pitched strong and heady game anC
Aztec was blanked until the fourth
inning, when an error by Farmingtor
started the fireworks and when the
sparks cleared away Aztec had rur
Ifonr tallies across home plate, Thii
made the score to in favor of the
home team and the boys thereafter
kept safe lead, the final standing

10 to 3 in Aztec's favor. With two
on bases Roder Hilderbrand eyed the
score to 0 in Farmington's favor.
He swung the willow and met the
ball squarely for three base hit,
bringing in two runs. Hits by sue
Fceeding batters brought in two more
in this inning. Then Roder settled
down and pitched as fine an exhibit
ftion.a could be, Floyd Hilderbrand
behind the bat holding everything
that came along, John Austin
twisted hi le sIla his place was
taken byJI4o,k Green. Pennington

In the second pony race Hawthorne
won first, Harry Hubbard second.
In the relay race 2ls miles, change
five times, the Bardin string from
La Plata won first, the string ridden
by Dave Allen second.
Then came the bucking contest and
a lot of outlaw bronehos had been
entered. After an exciting contest
in which fine exhibitions of.tall and
fancy bucking stunts had been per-
formed, Henry Snider of Bloomfield
was awarded the purse. He rode one
of the Hampton pintos androde him
to a finish. All the riders stayed
with their mounts in fine style.
Owing to the lateness of the hour
THE street sports were declared off.
Thus. ended one of the'nost. pleas
ant celebrations that Aztec has ever
given and more orderly, good ma
tured crowd never gathered. If they
did not one md all have good time
it was no fault of the committee on
arrangements.

Making Trouble
 For Arizonan
A Nogsles dispatch says

A Nogsles dispatch says
 Trouble seems to be brewing for Albert w. Brickwood, jr., appointed American consul at Puerto Csrtez, Honduras, and at present acting con- sul at Nogales, Sonora. It is alleged that charges of 'absenting himself from from duty at time when danger threatened and general incompe,ency and unfitness for the position" have been sent to the secretary of state at Washington. It is not known just how soon an agent of the government will be sent here to investigate tine charges, but it is believed one will be sent.
 Specifically it is alleged that during the month of September, when co many people along the Mexican bor- der anticipated a revolutionary out break in the Mexican border towns which outbreak was looked for abou, the sixteenth of the month, Brick. wood sbsented himself from Nogales Sonora, almost continually for sbou, ten days.

Leasing Public Lands
 For Grazing Purposes

The National Live Stock association, recently in session at Denver, passed . resolution favoring she leasing of pub lie lands for grazing purposes. The big cattle companies are today enjoy ing this privilege without paying for it, as does the small cattle man.
 Under such an arrangement of leas- ing. unless % framed as to favor the email owner living thereon, as recom- mepded by the president, no one but those able to pay would have any privileges on the public domain, though this is pretty near the ca-e now, and is would be the final windup of the email cattle man, for when you see a cattle corporation paying foI grazing land you may expect ths, their cattle will be grazed on H.-Co' chise County Press.

 Of This Territory

If an experiment which is to b> made in Santa Cruz Cruz county proves successful, . wonderful trans- formation may looked for in tine vxi- leys, on the mesas and on the foot hills of the great southwest.
 The proposition is that of re-for- eating the country. Correspondence has been started with Chief Forester Pinchot of the Agricultural Depart ment, at Washington, D. G., with q view of ascertaining what class of fuel trees is best adapted to this cline and soil. When the information has been oot.:.t1s, :he rlass of trees recom- mended by the depsrsS,ent will be ex- perimented with, and if thers is any promise of success efforts will be made to interest every citizen in the coGctv in the project and have trees planted wherever there is available land upon which they will grow. and to protect the young forests in their growth.
 Should the experiment. prove suc- cessful iu Santa Cruz county it may be expected to spread throughout the southwest.
 For some years past wood for fuel has been scarce in this section, and the rapid disappearance f fuel trees from the vicinity of towns has caused apprehension from which has grown the proposition 10 re.forest the lands

 Commenting on the sale of the prop erty, the Clifton Copper Era states that the group of claims are in the heart of the mineral belt, but while many of the mines have been worked for years and have large ore todies ready for s'oping, the management realizes that it will be necessary tt spend from two to three million dol lars in the purchase price. in devel opment and equipment of the prop erty and the erection of . moderI plant for treating and smelting tn | ores.

Mexican Patriots
 Celebrated Some

Yesterday was a great day in the Republic of Mexico and was celebra- ted in every part of the neighboring territory until late into the night. It was the semi-centennisl,'o Or fiftieth sn- niverssry of the adoption of the Mex ,can constitution, which took place in Mexico City, February 5. 1857. The first constitution was adopted in 1921, but the celebration yesterday was in honor of the second document, which was considerably modified and which is the foundation of the prin- ciples o. Mexican government today.
