Special to the Gazette.
HEMPsTEAD, WALLER COUNTY, TEX, Oct.
about eighteen months ago q man
named kells was shot and killed at Hand
ley near Fort Worth by Nick Harris, who
made his escape. A few days ago descrip-
ton of Harris was sent to Sheriff Faulkner
of this county, who discovered a
great similarity between Harris and 4
young man living in this county by the
name of George Anderson. Sheriff Rich
ardson of Fort Worth was asked for some
additional points of instruction, and when
they arrived, Capt. Faulkner was SO positive
that he had the right man that he placed Har-
ris, alias George Anderson. behind the
bars and notified the sheriff of Tarrant
county to come and get him. Sheriff Rich
ardson arrived this morning, went to the
Jail and fully identified his man as the man
indicted in Fort Worth for the murder Of
Kells. The prisoner in the presence of
Sheriffs Richardson and Faulkner
admitted the killing, but claims it TO
have been case of self defense. For
three years this man has been chased from
one part OF the state TO another, and Sheriff
Richardson says that it has cost him over
$4,000 to keep on his track.

beyond the capability of most men. She
reaches the bottom of the moral hill sooner
and she gathers more mire in the descent
than the average man could, ever IL he
tried.
1t is comparatively easy for a human
being born with a pretty face, u soft voice
and the possession of those many outward
attractions which help to make the fair
sex the object of especial consideration and
alteration, to bamboozle and undo other
human beings. A woman has more OPP
portunities to deceive than a man has.
Every man fairly begs her to fool him and
cheat him and scnd him to the dogs.
Moreover, wickedness is more profitable to
the woman who a k it her stock in
trade than 1t Is to the man. She is subtle
and seductive. He is clumsy and suspicion
provoking. And when a woman closes
her heart to things that are good it be-
comes steel. A mans, be he ever so wicked,
might soften. A woman's, never.
These facts have been brought before the
public attention recently with great force.
The newspapers have been full of reports
of the doings of wicked women. Five may
be selected rs samples.

herself Nine. Astle and lives in Denver

erring women would naturally place in a

Her recent arrest is merely the culmina-
ton of an international career of crime.
She is said to have been mixed up in the
vile scandal involving the names of Lady
Colin Campbell and Sir Charles Dixie,
which startled Londo and was the sub
ject of world wide gossip, and to have been
the prime mover in many shady and motto.

separate charges of murder will be brought
against her in Denver.
"Sister Beatrice May is New York city's

serving a sentence for raising money by
fraud. Sha used the holy cloak of religion
to help her "a her swindling. Dressed as a
nun she solicited money for "St. Stephens
Guild" a mythical mission by which she
alone benefited. Hundreds, and perhaps
thousands, of dollars were given to her by
charitably disposed people who were de-
ceived by her religious garb. Her real
name is Mary E. Oliver. She, too, has a
wide reputation. In 1879 she sued a United
States senator, who was alleged to have
fallen into her tolls, for breach of promise
of marriage. She was beaten.
Minnie May is the leader of C~hicago's by
no means small band of female pickpock-

two years old, yet she has been arrested at

SAN LUIS OBIsPo, CAL, Sept. PA
horrible murder has been unearthed that
was committed at the eastern border of
this county June I, last. Martin Heines
disappeared that day leaving no trace.
Within the last few days his blankets
aud clothes were found sunk in a well.
Fragments of bones and flesh were found
buried in a hog wallow near the shanty of
a pre-emptor named John Silvia Gularte
for whom the man worked. The coroner's
jury found that Heines was murdered by
Gularte. The evidence tends to show
that Gularte had killed Heines by shoot
ing him In the back, then chopped him
up and fed the pieces to the hogs.
