rigid one. The examiners have init
mated that if the questions. or seventy

HUGE EXHIBIT FROM
YAVAPA| COUNTY
Maricopa County Seems 20 Be Fast
Asleep in Regard to the Asri-
cultural Exhibits.

The biggest exhibit for the agricul-
tural department OF the fair was re-
ceived by Superintendent Wilson yes
terday. IL consists of more than a
hundred entries and is a miniature
fair all by itself This exhibit is sew
eral times larger than Maricopa coun-
tvs exhibit of last year. which took
the. special award. In ii is almost ev-
erything that is grown in Yavapai
county from peanuts to pumpkins.
The entry is made by o. j. Ames Of
the Verde valley.
In this connection ii might be stated
that there is little danger this year
of Maricopa county walking off with
the special award The exhibits from
this county would hardly fill bushel
basket The reason for this, given by
Mr.. Wilson. is that there is too much
going on in this county and that ex-
hibitors have had their attention dis
tractcd by other things. Unless some
thing is Gone very soon MaricOpa
county will blush at her own exhibit,
and little Yavapai or Yuma will as
simulate the prize money. Last year
Maricopa was saved by the personal
efforts of George w. Cowgirl. one of
the commissioners then. who encoun
tered the same apathy but went
around and gathered in the exhibits
by personal magnetism, eloquence and
hypnotic power. He refused the po-
sition this year on account of stress
of work.
There seems to have been general
date OF the closing of the agricultural
entries. 1t is not Nov. l. as some have
thought. but Nov. s, at noon. Exhib-
its will be received at the agricultural
building Saturday and also Monday
morning. II has not been the custom
to receive them as late as NJ rBday

Cooper relative to the human stomach
has attracted such widespread atten-
ton that the public in cities visited by

Mr.. Cooper says that human health

further says that most men and wo-
men OF this generation are half sick.

Cooper has been travelling from one

what he calls a campaign Of educa-
ton. For the past year he has met
the public in the larger cities of the
country, and his success has been
phenomenal. Thousands of people
have flocked 10 his headquarters
wherever he has gone. and the sale
OF his medicine has been beyond any

BELIEVES TRAP
WAS SET BY AID
OF AN OFFICIAL.

Lieut.. Anthony Vachris, head Of the
Brooklyn Italian Bureau, declared 1t as
bis opinion that Petrosino had been
caught In trap that was skilfully pre-
pared for him by some Italian official
who feared his activity would block the
process OF shipping Italian criminals to
this country.
II had long talk with Joe before he
left for Italy" said Vachris He was
going back to his countryland for the
frst time since he left there forty years
ago. He was born In Cadulae, in north
ern Italy, and intended before his re-
turn to visit his two sisters there, his
only kin.
II told him to be careful and that they
would be laying for him. He replied that
he would take plenty of precautions so
as not 10 be caught in a trap. But he
had everything against him. The Off
cials of the Government who were max
ing themselves solid by shipping Grim

GREAT RECORD
MADE BY BUREAU
UNDER PETROSINO

It Is scarcely four wears ago that Po-
lice Commissioner McAdoo created a
special Italian service In this city. The
Italian population Of Greater New York
at that time was almost 10000 This
service was put under the command Of
Petros!no. The personnel OF the force
was supposed to be known only to its
chief, but the Black Hand gangs soon
penetrated this secret.
During the first year OF Petroslno' s
service he made ,G arrests, 600 in 1905
and 400 In 1905. In 1901 the tota grew
again, and last years arrests In this
borough and Brooklyn totalled SO, the
Brooklyn staff being directed by An.
