L. D. s. academy at Thatcher; of the eighth grade and high school gradu- ates, not more than four will attend colleges or universities outside of the territory.
 Thatcher took up manual training, domestic art, and music, six years ago, and has continued special in- struction in these branches in addition to the regular grade work; since that time number of other schools have taken up domestic art and music, and at least six other schools are con- templating these branches for the coming year so that the residents of all of the larger districts will be en- toying this distinction.
 Morenci will install manual train ing which will be second in the County to take up this branch.
 The Graham county institute will be held conjointly with the Territorial teachers association next November at the same time the Territorial Fair is held, and we hope to capture some of the best prizes awarded by the Fair association, with exibits from the different departments of Graham county schools.
 There are two high schools in Gra- ham county, one at Morenci and the other at Clifton, and it is pleasure to note that both have made very satisfactory advancement during the year.
 The enrolment is forty-two of which ten are boys and thirty-twC are girls, the full classes doing strong work in all departments.
 The Morenci high school i: quartered in one of the finest build ings in the territory, which is oc cupied also by the grades, the high school teachers doing some of the grade work and being in the same building under a supervising Principa results in efficiency of a high order.
 The Clifton Union high school while not so favorably located, yet occupies good and favorable quarters though rather small.
 Both are amply supplied for pres ent needs with suitable furniture anC apparatus; also each has a very goot library.
 These schools are h very pros porous condition and the work dont is equal to that done in other schools of the same grade so that the patrons and citizens of Graham county may justly feel proud of her schools.

To Hold A County Fair.

The board of directors of the Gila Valley Fair Association met last week and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, John J. Birdno;Vice President, George P. Jacobson; Secretary and Treasurer, Dr. J. G. Belt.
 The holding of county fair the latter part of September was taken up and fully discussed. It was the unanimous opinion that a fair and stock show, in which the whole county could participate, could be success fully held, and the board of directors decided to start in at once and get the people of the county interested in the matter.
 A fair and stock show would help wonderfully iu bringing to the front the many resources of Graham County, which includes besides minerals, a most productive soil which yields large crops of wheat, barley, corn, alfalfa and all kinds of fruits and vegetables.
 Some very fine blooded horses are raised in the Gila and Duncan valleys. The establishment of a creamery in Stafford has resulted in bringing ;n fine bred milch COWS. There are many other features which could be carried out at fair and stock show, and as this fair would be the first ever held in the county, there is no doubt but that it would be very popular.
 The fair grounds are delightfully."- situated and large enough for the holding of a fair. New buildings necessary for the showing of stock products, etc., could easily be erected
 There is fine race track for the holding of races and other track events.
 The directors of the association will appoint committees at it's next meeting and in another week the proposition to hold the first Graham County Fair will be successfully launched. Guardian

Olympia, Wash, Feb. 4.-The To-
cal option bill of the anti-saloon
league won a victory in the house
this morning when Palmer's local op-
ton bill was turned down by vote
of SO to S6.
The house judiciary committee to-
which had been referred all the To-
cal option bills, made three reports
this morning. A majority report,
signed by eight members, sent back
the Falkner and McMaster bill with
out recommendation. Palmer's bill,
excluding incorporated towns and cit
les from the county unit plan, came
back with the recommendation for
passage signed by five members. The
remaining two members wanted a
bill excluding cities of the first class
only from the county unit plan.
Both houses took action on the
squabble over the race track bill Of
yesterday. The status of the bill now
is that it has been passed by the
house with an emergency clause and
by the senate without the clause. The
probabilities are that both houses will
have a deadlock over the clause.

WONDERFUL CASE
Of MEMORY LAPSE
WONDERFUL CASE OF
LAPSE OF MEMORY
Young Student Fails to Recognize
His Own Father or Any of His
Relatives-Listens With Interest
to Description Of Childhood Scenes
With Which He Is Familiar.

Riverside, Cal, Feb. 4.-Florin G.
Lee, the young student whose COM
plete lapse of memory constitutes one
of the most remarkable cases of the
kind ever known was brought to the
home of his parents in Riverside last
night, from Los Angeles. When Lee
left the Los Angeles Jail in company
with his father and other relatives,
he said: "There is really no reason
why should go to Riverside. 1 do
not know any one there"
He did not recognize his father
and talked with him as though he
were an utter stranger.
He listened with interest to his
fathers description of scenes of Riv-
erside with which the young man
had been perfectly familiar since
childhood. He appeared to have no
recollection of them whatever.
1t is thought that a few weeks of
rest among his relatives and friends
amid familiar scenes may restore his
memory His condition is ascribed
to overwork. His mind is in no way
except in memory and his
manner is entirely rational.

WILLIAM GATENS
MAY BE JUDGE

Salem, Ore, Feb. 4.-The circuit
judgeship bill for Multnomah coun-
ty which passed the house and is
now in the senate, is in the balance.
1t is understood Governor Chamber
lain has not made up his mind wheth-
er he would approve the bill If it
We're passed by the senate. The gov
ernor has not yet decided whether
there is any need for an additional cir
cult judge in Multnomah county. 1t
is probable he may decide there would
be no such need provided the present
members of the bench would get
down to work and clean up their
dockets.
1t is rumored about the capitol to-
day that should the bill pass the sem
ate and be favorably considered by
the governor he would appoint Will
liam Gatens, his private secretary, to
the position. Mr.. Gatens was a dep
uty district attorney at the time of his
appointment to his present position,
and is well known as a lawyer, He is
also a resident of Portland, never
having changed his residence to Sa-
lem since his appointment as private
secretary.
This rumor will not be discussed by
the governors office.

H0RSEMAN TRIAL
IS IN PROGRESS
NOTHING NEW IN
TESTIMONY THUS FAR
Witnesses ReteIl Story OF Killing Of
Clarence McBroom at Potts School
House-Conversation of Two Years
Ago Rcpeated-Positions OF Prin-
cipals Diagramed.

Nothing of a sensational nature was
brought out in the Horseman thial
this morning and afternoon, only two
witnesses having been cross examined
so far. The testimony of Dan Hicks
was concluded this morning, and
William Cartwright was called to the
stand. The testimony of this witness
was the same as in the previous trial.
Cartwright, who was an eye witness
TO the tragedy, related the conversa-
ton that took place previous to the
shooting.
The positions of the two principals
were shown on diagrams and in a
photograph of the school house,
which had been taken for the bene-
tit of the jurors. The defense is try
ing to show that the defendant acted
in strict self-defense and considerable
discussion was had as to the techni-
calities, consisting of the distance the
principals were from each other and
from the school house, and the direc-
ton each was facing at the time Of
the tragedy.
The defense is seeking to prove
that when Horseman pulled his gun
and fired that McBroom after brutal
ly beating the old man up and taunt-
ing him with his carrying a gun,
started again towards the defendant,
who was frightened at the motion,
and out of fear, pulled the gun and
fired the fatal shot.
The prosecution. endeavors to show
that McBroom was walking away
from the defendant at the time the
gun was pulled and that the only rea-
son that he received the bullet in
the face was that he was attracted
by hearing the cry, Don't do that, |
George, don't do that" and turning
around to see what was the matter. |
The most of the witnesses will be
those who testified at the former |
trial, only few new witnesses to be
examined

REFUGEES SCARED.
Last Retreat for American Criminals
10 BE DESTROYED.

Washington, Feb. 4.-According to
reports received here from Hondu-
ras, several hundred Americans now
residing in that country are awaiting
with a great deal of anxiety the de-
cision of the United States officials
as to whether the extradition treaty
recently entered into by the United
States and Honduras is to be retro
active. While there are many Ameri-
cans in Honduras who are there in
the interests of trade and commerce,
perhaps the majority are refugees
from justice who have thus far sue
cessfully eluded the long arm of the
law and escaped punishment for
crimes committed in the states.
Until the recent eXtradition treaty
was signed Honduras was the last
refuge for American criminals in the
western hemisphere, and unknown
hundreds have taken advantage of
that fact. Living under assumed
names, some in direct poverty and
some enjoying the fruits of ill-gotten
wealth, many famous or infamous
American criminals, are to be found
in the Hondurean capital and in the
smaller cities and villages.
If it is decided that the recent trea-
ty is retroactive. some of these refu-
gees may be brought back to the
United States for trial 1t is realized
however, that it would now be a diff
ficult matter to bring about the con-
vction of most of the refugees, and
it is probable that the officials will
decide that the criminals will be suf-
ficiently punished by having to live
their lives in Hondusas.
