THE CANYONS OF MT. FRANKLIN.
Editor FL PasO Herald;
1t often happens that while reading
and admiring the description OF the
wonders and beauties Of places remote
from where we live, we miss many
beauties and wonders that are nearby
Our own Mount Franklin has many
points Of interest that are overlooked
because they are so near, and we Iall
to appreciate them.
A few days ago with our cameras we
made a trip to the canyon that opens
from near Altura. We had not gone
into the canyon very far before we
were surprised and charmed by the
wild scenery.
on each side rose high cliffs with
precipitous rocks jutting out On go
ing further in, the cliffs became higher
with smaller but equally picturesque
canyons branching off. At one place
the rocks were so high a good part OF
the canyon was in the shade, although
the sun was near the meridian.
one peculiarly of this freak Of ma
ture is the many cOlOred rocks On
every side. The white strata of lime
stone contrast with brown sandstone
and other rocks Of many tints and
coIors. Some have been thrown mp by
volcanic action The whole mountain
seems tilted toward the west
In the dry water courses we found
beautiful specimens Ol guaI z anu AOOI-7
carving copper and iron These have
been washed from the higher strata
on the sides of the mountain and there
is g possibility Of richer metals being
found in some Of them
The picturesque scenery only lacks
stream OF water falling in cascades
over the rocks to make a picture equal
TO some of the most famous places IN
the RSckeies-
We do not know the local Mexican
name for this canyon, but on account
Of the many colors We named II Ii

DOWN-RIvER MELON CROP
PROMISES TO BE GOOD ONE
Wharf Dealers Report Fine Pros
poets for Popular Fruit Now
Maturing Rapidly.

Advices received by Capt. Dave Faunce
and others who handle watermeIons on
the 18th street wharf state that the out
look for big crops of the choice fruit is
excellent. that the melons are now matur-
ing rapidly that il is probable that the
first cargo will arrive at the 18th street
wharf in the latter part of this month
Early In the season it was feared that
the cold weather of May and early June
would set back the ripening of the melons
and that they would be late in coming
here. This fear is now said to be IN
founded and the vessels will begin to
arrive about the usual time
1t is probable that the first load of the
melons will be brought here from North
Carolina, but they will be followed close
ly by vessels with melons from southern
Virginia, and by the middle of August
the crops from the patches along the
lower Potomac will be coming in.
With the advent of the first melon
laden craft. the District wharf market
at the foot of 18th street southwest
which has been very dull for the past
three months. will wake up from its long
sleep and Will be a busy place until next
spring Watermelons will be coming to
the wharf until the latter part of Sep
TENDER or early III October, and vessels
side those laden with melons before the
melon season closes
Before the close of the oyster season
the spring fishing season will be at hand
and will keep the wharf lively until late
next spring.

banquet August II next.

WANT SPECIFIC CHARGES.
Dairymen Will Object to Prosecu-
tons Bills of Particulars.

1t became known today that the attor-
neys representing the fifty or more local
dairymen who will appear in the Police
Court tomorrow to plead to charges of
selling impure milk will object to the bill
of particulars which the government will
furnish in all Of the cases tomorrow. This
hill was ordered to be furnished by Judge
Pugh in granting the motion made by the
milk dealers attorneys when the cases
were first brought into court last Mon
day.
The bills declare that the milk in aues-
ton was adulterated, in that it con-
tanned bacteria, including the colon bacil-
lus and streptococcus, indicating filth and
decomposition.
Matthew E. O'Brien, who, with Henry
f. Davis, represents the accused milk
men, in an interview today said: eve are
having printed and will file in court to-
morrow a motion for a more specific bill
of particulars in each case. We shall
insist on the government being COM
pelled to state just what foreign sub
stances the milk contains that makes
the dairymen liable to prosecution before
we plead to the charges. We have alto
gether too much scientific palaver and
too little in the way of definite charges
Of adulteratiOn.'
