Horse Thieves Captured.

On the 10th of last month C. M Palmer and q stranger hired coupl, of horses from E. $. Wilcox for few days. The time passed by and tn, parties did not return and it was eyi dent that they did not intend to. MT. Wilcox had q warrant placed in the hands of the sheriff for the arrest of the parties. Deputy Sheriff Fairchild and Constable O'Dell started on their trail, which led northwest towards the Nav. ajo Reservation, and they followed it to Durango, Colorado, where the parties were arrested Wednesday.
 Palmer and his pal on their trip stole two horses from the Piute Indians, leaving the Wilcox animals. The h. dians got after them and setthem afoot, when they managed to steal another animal, and thus made their way out. Palmer is considered hard citizen and was on trial at the last term of court for killing and stealing d calf but escaped punishment by techni- cality.

The Lordsburg Liberal says that the Southern Pacific road has recently adopted new rule in promoting fire, men to engineers. A firemen must be examined by the master mechanic and travelling engineer on the theory and practice of steam engineering, with in cldental questions as to what the can. didate would do in case of wreck or break down. Hereaftern no firemen will be given position as engineer until he has passed this examination, Dur ing the past week Master Mechanic Gray and Travelling Engineer Russel have been rounding up the firemen who are wanting promontion and ask ing them stronge questions. They put Galloway, Ingham and Whitcomb, who have charge of the Lordsburg round house, through the examination and the boys all passed it in good shape.

on for School,

Prof T. G, Lemon, principal of the
 Indian school at Grand Junction, Colo
 rado, arrived in sSolomonville last Sun
 day morning with thirty young Apaches from the San Carlos reservation.
 These children have all been going to school at San Carlos but at Grand Junction the facilities for teaching them industrial pursuits are much better, and this is the second lot Prof. Lemon has carried away in the last twelve months. This lot consisted of ten boys and twenty girls, ranging in age from to 17 years. Prof. Lemon stated that when the question of carry ing away children was first discussed on the San Carlos reservation the pa- rents urged violent objections, believ- ing that it was trick of the white man to finally remove the whole tribe. But by much reasoning and persuasion they nave hnalIy concluded that the removal of their children will be for their benefit, and now offer no objec- ton further than the wailing of the squaws over parting with their chil- dren. The children were hauled in three wagons and were comfortably clothed, each having a red wooden shawl. Some of the girls wore pom derous brass earrings and nearly all wore beads grounds their necks. The party was accompanied by Mrs. M. H. Whclan who has been employed in the San Carlos school as matron, but now goes to Grand Junction as teacher. - Bulletin.

THAT Blaine's reciprocity clause in the Mckinley tariff bill is doing lots of good for this country is demonstra- ted by the heavy orders for flour from Cuba. At present the duty on flour from this country delivered in Havana is s6.2O per barrel. When Spain agreed to reciprocity measures between Cuba and the United States the duty was reduced to Sl per barrel, and this is to go into effect January 1st. Just now there is a lively time among eX- porters who have heavy orders ahead to be delivered about the first of the year. The regular steamers cannot begin to carry the freight, and others will be pressed into the service. Esti- mate places the number of barrels of flour ordered by Cuban merchants at 3O0,000. New York comes in for the lions share of the demand, though many orders have been placed in Chicago, whence the flour will be shipped by rail to Baltimore, thence by vessel to Cuba.

With every advance of emigration into the far West, a new demand is created for Hos tetter's stomach Bitters.

BALMACEDA's ESCAPE.

The story comes to hand that Balma-
ceda is safe upon the United States cruiser
San Francisco. 1t is told that Admiral
Brown sent a force of blue jackets ashore
at Valparaiso; that he sent Balmaceda a
| blue-jacket suit and instructed him to
disguise himself in it, assume to be a
drunken sailor, mingle with the San
francisco's men and come away with
them. This he did, mimicking drunken
sailor capitally and tumbling into the
ships boat in the most approved style of
the whole-seas-o blue Jacket. The
Admiral has now steamed away for CAL
lao, where he viii land the ex-President.
At first blush it would seem that the ac-
ton of the Admiral was unwarranted;
that while he should give shelter to one
fleeing to the flag, it is not warrantable to
send into the country of neutral and
assist one prescribed TO escape. But Ad-
miral Brown must be presumed to know
his footing and to have acted strictly
within the law. Possibly Balmaceda may
have been under the wing of the Ameri-
can Minister or American Consul, and
then have claimed the protection of the
flag. If so, his removal to the ship was
only an act of caution that is to be COM
mended. But whatever the facts, judg-
ment must go out in favor of Admiral
Brown until it is clearly shown that his
aid to Balmaceda on land was in excess
of authority.

THE Chilean provisional Government
has done precisely the right thing in
validating the act of Balmaceda in issuing
81, 100000 of paper money. Had the
Junta repudiated the issue the most Sc
rious financial disturbance would have
followed. The people were compelled
by the Dictator to accept the paper issue;
to repudiate it now would amount to con-
fiscation Of property of the innocent, and
to leave the country without a substitute
for the paper. The Junta inspires conf
dence by this act, and does much to for
