A. w. Bikker, who has returned to Albuquerque after an absence of six years, will build $10,000 home at Eleventh street and Tijeras avenue He bought the lots from City Attor- ney W. A. Kelcher and Capt. W. C. Reid and said that the building would be started next Monday if it was al all possible.
 The house will have six rooms, in cluding glass sleeping porch, and its architectural style will be the Spanish mission like the home of Capt. Reid next to which it will stand. MT. Blk. ker estimated that it would cost him more than $10,000 to complete the house.
 MT. Bikker for the last six years has been at Flagstaff, Ariz., but he intends to make his home here in the future. He arrived Wednesday from Flagstaff with the plans for his home already finished and set about making arrangements for the building a, once.-Albuquerque Journal.

CROP PROGRESS IN ARIZONA

Crops in dryland sections have made remarkable progress during the week. Oats, beans, spring wheat sorghums, potatoes, and all forage crops are generally in good condition. Oats for hay is stooling out unusually well, owing to the damp weather, and is already making heavy crop. The rains have not been particularly ad- vantageous to cotton in irrigated sec tions as there is tendency to too much plant growth, and Johnson grass has become troublesome in some fields. No shedding has occurred as yet. Peaches in carload lots were shipped out of the valley during the week.

TRIAL OF INDIAN
 MAY END THIS WEEK
Continued from page D

Continued from page D man, which had been found, shot through the head and partly burned in the ruins of the store, which, it is alleged, the Indians set on fire in an effort to cover up the crime.
 Lorenzo Hubbell, Jr., nephew of the deceased, testified that he was em- ployed by his uncle to run the store where the murder occurred and that the body found in the ruins was that of his uncle.
 Two Indian brothers, Belome Bigue No. and Belome Bigue No. 2, told about discovering the fire and the lat ter related how the two of them had trailed the two suspects to their hid ing place in cave across the Little Colorado river from Leupp.
 Hostquin Undas Bigue testified to picking up the murderer's gun out side the store.
 R. B. Benton, Burr Williams, and Quinani Bodene' were among the first witnesses called yesterday. The lat ter repeated the defendants confes- sion to him.
 Ia Whi Shoshi, an Indian policeman who helped arrest the two fugitives described the arrest and repeated their confession to him.
 Albert House, who had acted as in- terpreter between the Indians and Stephen Janus, after the captives had been turned over to the latter, was called to the stand, but his testimony was not allowed.
 E. A. Marks, Indian teacher, drew a diagram of Hubbells' store.
 The testimony of James Giddings "Rimmy Jim," wound up the proceed. ings yesterday. The Indians had con. fessed to him and one of them had illustrated by drawing a diagram ot the scene of the murder and the rela. tive positions of the principals, which "Rimmy" explained to the jury. It was noticeable that there was nc essential difference in the stories told by the defendants to the variou. people to whom they described tho fatal occurrence. In substance, it is as follows:
 The two Indians went into Hub bells store, the younger buying some cookies and laying down fifty cents The older brother then bought some thing and handed Hubbell a dollar They received no change, and asked for it, whereupon, they assert, Hub bell told them they would have t, trade the rest of the money out. | was complicated at that point by Hubbell's dog, which tore the trouser, of one of them. They then demanded not only the change due, but pay fol the damage done to the trousers Hubbell told them to get out or h, would kill them. Both Hubbell anc the older Indian grabbed for Hub bells gun, which was lying near th' counter. The Indian got it, where upon Hubbell ran to his bedroom anc got another, coming out and shoot ing at them twice. After the secont shot, the older Indian fired back striking Hubbell in the head and kill ing him.
 The attorneys for the defense mad, spirited effort to prevent the ad mission of these confessions, but wa. overruled.

A REAL DIFFICULTY

Ben Turpin, the famous cross-eyed comedian, tells that on one occasion he approached two small Liverpool boys, and asked one of them to carry his bag to the station.
 (Which one, mister?" piped both urchins in chorus.
 "You," said Ben.
 "But which ont ?"
 "You,". patiently explained the fun ny man. There was pause. Then one of the small boys mustered up courage and said:
 Please, mister, if you'll close one eye, then maybe we can tell which of us you are talking to-

Interesting Meeting of Ladies' Aid Society

Ladies' Ald SOctety
 Probably one of the greatest treats the ladies of the Federated Church have enjoyed for long time was the meeting of the Aid Society on We'd nesday afternoon when about forty ladies and twenty children gathered at the Presbyterian Church at II a. m. and from there motored out to Rior- don. seven miles east of town, and on the hillside under the pines en- loved a sumptuous picnic spread. After dinner the ladies enjoyed the regular meeting of the society in the home of Mrs. R. G. Stevenson and Mrs. James A. Davis. After the busl- ness part of the meeting was ds- posed of most delightful impromptu program was rendered.. Mrs. Steven son and Mrs. Davis gave two beauti- full vocal numbers, and Mrs. Eastburn favored the ladies with an interesting reading to which she graciously an swered with short spicy encore. And there was short talk by J. A. Davis, who has recently returned from France. This made an enjoyable finale to the program.
 The next meeting of the ladies of the Federated Church will be the mis- sionary meeting which will occur on the conference grounds east of town. The leaders will be missionaries, and the subject will be "Indians." This meeting will take place August IA. Entertainment for Children
 Is Great Success
 The entertainment which was given last night for the children of the members of the Rebekah and Odd Fellows lodges was success in every way. The children, who had been care fully drilled, presented splendid pro. gram, and the luncheon which was served at the close, delighted the hearts of the small guests to nc small degree, and at leaving time the one thought foremost in the minds oi these little people was that the Re, bekahs know how to be hostesses tc children in right royal fashion. Depart for Southern Home
 Mrs. w. T. Stewart and daughter Miss Thelma Stewart, of Mccall Miss, who have been here for the past ten days visiting Mir. and Mrs, c. P. Heisser, will leave tonight for their home in Mississippi. They will take with them little Vivian and Ralph Heisser to remain until about Christmas.
 Mir. Heisser, with his aunt, Mrs. Stewart, and cousin, Miss Stewart, went up to the canyon yesterday.

Thomas F. Burris, who had been an invalid for many years as the re- suit of being severely crushed twenty years ago in a mine accident, died on Saturday, aged 67.
