Justice Arrested
STOCKTON, Cal, Aug. l5-A warrant
was issued to-day for the arrest OF Stephen
;. Field on complaint Of Mrs. Sarah
Althsa Terry, who charges him with com
plicity in the killing OF her husband. David
5. Terry, at Lathrop yesterday. Sheriff
Cunningham left here for San Francisco
this afternoon TO arrest Justice Field. The
attorneys who have been engaged to coz
duct the defense of Deputy Marshal Nagle
promised that Justice Field would appear
when wanted, but Mrs. Terry's complaint
was made Notwithstanding.
The funeral of Terry will be held Friday.
The body is still at the morgue, and Mrs.
Terry has not left IL at any time.
THE cRIEF TOPIC.
SAN Francisco, Aug. l5.-The killing
OF David >. Terry by Deputy Marshal
Nagle is still the chief topic OF discussion
here, though no new developments have
arisen beyond what was outlined in the
dispatches yesterday. Justice Field re-
sumed bis judicial duties to-day and sat IN
the circuit court with Judge Sawyer and
Judge ID. l.. Brewer, OF Kansas. He re-
terted freely ia conversation with attOr-
neYS and his associates to the exciting incl
dents OF yesterdays tragedy. de IS still
uty marshal, as is also Judge sawyer.
The preliminary hearing OF Deputy Mar
shal Nagle will come up before Justice
Peace at Stockton Wednesday next A
strong effort will be made after the examl-
nation TO secure bail. Ii it is refused the
matter will be appealed United States
Marshal Franks has secured from Nagle
the details of the affair. Nagle says he is
confident that Terry drew back his hand
after striking Justice Field, for the purpose
of pulling from his coat a knife he
was presumed to carry, as be
once made affidavit that ne always
went armed. 1t Is the theory OF those
about the United States marshal's Office
that Mrs. Terry when she threw herself on
her husbands body took a weapon from
him. though when the body was searched
no weapon was found.
The warrant upon which Justice Fields
arrest is expected TO be made was issued 9y
justice OF the peace Of Stockton. and II is
addressed to the sheriff OF the county. No
course has been outlined by the friends
of Justice Field as 10 the action he Will
take under the circumstances beyond the
statement made by the attorneys for Nagle
in stockton to-day that Justice Field would
appear at any time II desired. The war
rant for the arrest of Justice Field was is
sued solely upon the complaint OF Mrs.
Terry, who did not witness the shooting.
Before the cOroner's jury no evidence
whatever was given connecting the justice
with the tragedy in any way beyond the
fact that he was assaulted By Terry.

After that. for months, she awoke about
the same hour daily, when she was given
food. Her physical condition during
this time was apparently excellent, but
after a time the regular waking ceased
and it occurred nj varying intervals.
The periods OF wakefulness also varied

A Man Of Muscle.
Freeman.

Several years ago an artist of Dresden
persuai led locksmith there to give up
his trade and become an artists model.
1t was a good thing for the locksmith,
who is now the famous muscle man Of
Dresden, whose magnificently develop
ed body makes him probably the most
renowned model in the world. In order
to preserve for future artists an exact
duplicate of bis extraordinary figure the
director Of the Royal Saxon Povzellan-
fabrik at Nielsen recently invited him
there that cast from life might be taken
of the upper part OF his body. Itis said
that "hls muscular development is so
complete and detained that even the
least and slightest cord of every muscle
stands forth prominently. and his
whole body looks as if 1t were woven to-
gether or plated like basket work. His
muscles have such hardness that they
feel to the touch as if they were carved
in wood.

She continued in this condition until

The Story of a Horse.

II is not often that dealer in horses
gets caught, but case in point shows
how a Rondout dealer was brought up
Goodwin, of Palenville, came to tins
city to purchase horse. Entering a
mart in Abel street, the following con
versation took place:

"Good. l have got Just the kind of
animal that will suit you."
"Trot him out.
The horse was "trotted'' out, and the
man from Palenville instantly recognize
ed the beast. He bad purchased it in
Montreal, Canada, fourteen years ago.
At that time the age of the horse was
given MS six years He had owned it
twelve years and then sold it to a man
who had it two years, thus making its
age twenty years. While in Goodwin's
possession the animal had acquired the
habit of chewing tobacco.
"There," said the dealer, ''he's
daisy"
Chow old is he 2" inquired Goodwin.
"Seven years. He is as sound as a
Spanish gold dollar, and can turn
mile in less than three minutes.
care Jon sure the horse is only seven
years oldl"
"Certain sure. know the man that
raised him."
"Give me chew of tobacco, will
you D. said Goodwin. Receiving it he
handed the tobacco to the dealer with
the remark: "Just see If that horse will
chew"
To the surprise OF the horseman the
animal chewed the quid with evident
pleasure and whinnied for more.
"Do you know this horsel" he asked.
"Well, ought to, replied Goodwin,
"being as l owned him tw I've years.
He was six years old when l bought
him, and another man had him for two
years.
"Come out aad take drink" said
the dealer. "That is the worst / ever
