As the director* of the fair asso-
ciation could not get out >/?*(<■ rday,
they appointed E. 8. Ilocsi to call on
the citizens of El Paso to raise $5,000
to make the fair a certainly next fall.
"It *would l>e a shame,” said A.
Schwartz yesterday, "to drop the fair
for want of $.',000, Every merchant,
hotel, restaurant, hoarding house, sa
loon, barber shop, etc., made money
out of the fail last winter, though It
was our first effort, ami the attend
ance was not half what It will be this
year.
"The people should subscribe the
$5,000 today so that we can begin
work at once on the fair for next
November. Next time the fair will
more lhart make expenses and It will
be easy to keep It going."
Mr. Komi will solicit subscription*
for the next three days, and If he has
not then succeeded In raising the
money needed, then the fair directors
will give a day to the work.

Third Week 29th
Anniversary Sale
For the remainder of this, the third Week of our
29th Anniversary Sale, many special features
have been planned that will make a trip here,
either as shopper or visitor, one of great interest.
Anniversary values, in great variety, are to be
found in every department. We mention espe-
cially for today A
Exhibition of
Brainard & Armstrong: Art Embroidery Pieces
“B & A " are famous for their art embroidery productions. We made arrangements
months ago to have a special exhibition of this embroidery as a feature of our 29th
Anniversary Sale. Many of the finished pieces have arrived and will be on display
this morning—one of especial interest is an El Paso pillow. In addition to the fin-
ished pieces, a large variety of the newest ideas in stamped pieces will be on display.
These comprise Centerpieces, Towels, Pillow Tops, Aprons, Scarfs, Table Covers,
Napkins, and, in fact, all that is new in art needlework. Summer travelers and those
who regard El Paso as the ideal summer resort will find both profit and pleasure in
working these beautiful pieces during the idle moments of the summer. It is impos-
sible to go into detail as to all that this exhibition consists of, so we suggest a visit here
today. \ (

he saw two soldiers after the hoy,
when he dodged in the doorway; that
the boy was excited ami crying and
the soldiers told witness he hail Just
killed another boy.
Mr. Ware next called to the stand
Noel Morgan to testify in his own be-
half. and the crowded court room was
very quiet, while the itoy in a calm,
steady voice denied any knowledge of
the crime with which he was charged.
Prisoner Testifies.
Noel Morgan testilled in substance
as follows:
"I am 11 years old. will he 15 In
July, and was born in the Panhandle.
1 began going to school here when
tie term opened last September. I
stay with my father at the store at
298 Texas street, and sleep there with
him at night. I had been going to
the Mesa school about six months.
There were probably 1900 children at-
tending this school and I only knew
those who were in my class.
"I might have known I^wrence
Windier by sight, but did not know
him by name. I do not remember see-
ing him on the Ifith of October and
didn't know he was at the plaza. I
had tio fight with him at the plaza.
"We marched to the plaza in grades
and Lawrence Wimber Was no: in my
grade. We were (here five minutes
before the presidential train arrived.
I was standing between the plaza
sidewalk and the street sidewalk
across the street immediately in front
of the St. Regis hotel I saw the
president go into the hotel and t then
turned to g-.i down toward the trans-
fer station to tell Miss Bronscn that
I had to go back to the store to help
father.
Says Mexican Boy Accused Him.
"I had not seen any fight or dis-
turbance; but I hat turned and taken
atbout three step* when a Mexican
toy caught hold of me and said. ‘Here
is the kid who killed him.' Then a
man grabbed at me amt I ran toward,
the store. A slint man caught me on
Texas street.
"I had no knife that day. but had
asked papa for a white-handled knife
somebody had left on the counter. He
put It in the desk, saving I could have
It If no one called for It. I think it
was Joe Calima who caught hold of
me and said: 'This is the kid who
killed him.' I ran because I was
frightened."
Stick* to Original Story.
any other boy running away from the
plaza.
Other Testimony.
Clarence Myera -testified that he
was on the plaza the day the presi-
dent came. Ho did not see anybody
fighting. He saw a boy running to-
ward the transfer station with his
head down and putting something in
his inside coat pocket. This hoy look-
ed like a Mexican. Witness also saw
another boy running toward the alli-
gator pool.
o (bgithraehnot .shrdltt shfdlu shahaa
On cross-examination witness said
he was standing w-here he could see
everybody, but he did not see anybody
running toward Main street.
Father Testifies.
George F Morgan, father of de-
fendant. testified that as he had given
consent to a number of people to
view the parade from his store win-
dows. lie had told his son to hurry
back from ihe plaza to help him
watch the store. He confirmed his
son's story of the while-handled knife.
His son had no knife when he left the
store that morning. Soon as witness
heard of his son's trouble he went to
the Jail to see him. Then he returned
to the store and found the white-
handled knife still In the desk.
Kenneth Freeman testified that he
was 14 years old. was in. the plaza
when l-awrence Wimber was killed;
that lie was standing three feet from
the deceased. But he saw no fight
and the first intimation he had that
there had been trouble was when he
saw Lawrence staggering and stooped
over. He did not see any one run
away.
Thomas Worsham testified that he
measured the ground and found it 23
feet from w-here the first bloody track
appeared to the large pool of blood
where l-awrence fell.
Here both sides closed and W. W.
Bridgers made the opening argument
for the prosecution. He was followed
by Attorneys lee. Ware and Jackson
for the defense and District Attorney
Howe closed with a strong argument.
boys made a covenant with the judge
that they would he good and scaled it
