SAM DAVIS SKIPS.
Dillie Millingt0n's Darling Leaves
Denver Without Holding a
Monetary Conference.

Of a young man very well known in
New Mexico, particularly in Santa Fe and
Las Vegas, where his mother was formerly
engaged in the hotel business, the Denver
News says:
"Sam" Davis, exdeputy sheriff and ex-
under constable at Justice Talbot's court,
has left town under peculiar circum-
stances. Papers amounting to about
5000 in all found their way into Chief
Howe's office early yesterday morning,
They consisted mainly of forged drafts
upon the county treasurer, but included
one bad check for $40. About 10 a. M,
"Dillie" Millington-Davis, Sans blushing
of detectives ear the immediate circum-
stances surrounding her husbands
exit.
Sam Davis is very well known in Dem
yer. About four months ago he severed
his connection with Justice Talbots
court, and since then has had no regular
employment Shortly before this he
married Sarah Millington, known as
"Dillie.' Shortly after this began the
downfall of the man of law. He was last
seen on Saturday night, when he told his
wife that he had to go to Deer Trail to
serve a warrant. His failure to appear
was explained ~ by a very brief letter re-
ceived by Mrs. Davis on Wednesday. 1t
was postmarked Albuquerque, N. NJ, and
stated that the writer had been compelled
to leave Denver and was on his way to
Mexico. Sam was cowboy on his
mothers ranch near Las Vegas before he
came to Denver, and he is now no doubt
vaquero.
The system used by Sam to obtain
money with which to make his journey is
simple. He discounted to money lenders
drafts on the county treasurer. His
victims are: The Capitol bank, Stephens
& Hanchett, for 500; George Hancock,
800; W. W. Knight, $105; Robert Cassell,
$50; the forged check for $40 was passed
on the May Shoe & Clothing store; $3.50
was obtained from George Hickey,
money lender, by mortgaging two horses
and two buggies belonging to the Tele
phone stables. Davis represented to all
of his victims that he was still deputy
sheriff, and to some exhibited a star.

The fbane Banks.

After nine months. divident of 25 per
cent has been declared by the defunct
First National bank of Deming and 20
per cent by the First National bank Of
Silver City. Receiver Smith has sent on
the necessary paper to the comptroller of
the currency at Washington, and the funds
Tor the payment to the creditors will be
available In about ten days. Facts now
seem to warrant the statement that the
banks will pay about 60 cents on the dol
Lar IN final settlement, but considerable
time must necessarily elapso before
matters can be closed. The stockholders
are paying their assessments, the present
dividend being the result Of several
thousand dollars received from this source
a few days since. The dividend means
the sum of $4,000 from the FIRST National
bank Of Deming and $25,OOO from the

SLUGGERS TO MEET.
some Points ON Lively Battle to
Come of Tonight.

New York, Oct, 31.-To-night at the
Coney Island Athletic club the Godfrey
Choynski and the Hagan-Lyons prize
fights will take place. The first will be
to finish for a purse of S5,000 of which
the loser will get $500. The men will
fight at catch weights. The opening con-
test tonight will be ten round go be-
tween the bantems Kid Hagan, who re-
Gently fought draw with Billy Plummer
and Dolly Lyons, George Dixon's spar
ring partner. These little fellows have
an outside stake of $1,000 in addition to
the $500 purse at issue. They will weigh
in at 112 pounds. Of course all inter
est centers in the heavyweight fight and
betting is fairly even, Godfrey having
perhaps a shade the best of it. Godfrey,
or "Old Chocolate" as he is called has a
good record in the ring, He is Boston's
40-year-old pugilist, and is still very ac-
tive and quick. His great blow is the
half-arm cross, which knocked out Joe
Lannon in the fourth round last May.
Godfrey's record of success and defeats is
long one, one of his best fights having
been that with Jack Smith at the Academy
of Music in New York.
Choynski was born in San Francisco in
1868, is five foot, ten inches in height and
generally weighs in at 10. He started
on his pugilistic career about the same
time with Jim Corbett, and the two men
were the bitterest of rivals on the Pacific
coast. Twice as an amateur and twice as
a professional, Corbett whipped him.
Goddard also beat him twice. But he is
a game fighter and has long string of
victories as well as bitter defeats. He
whipped Tom Moran, Jack McAuley, Pat
O'Sullivan, Joe Connolley, George Bshu,
Billy Kineally and quartette of Aus
tralias big fighters, including Owen Sui
livan. In fact his recent tour of Aus
tralia made him mint of money. He is
backed by "Parson" Davies. This is
Godfrey's last fight and Choynski hopes
to challenge Corbett or Goddard if he
wins.

GEORGIA POLITICS,

Mount Vernon, Montgomery county, will
be the scene Of a grand rally of the demoo-
| racy to-day.
Z. d. Crawford Of Pierce county has been
nominated by the democrats of that county
for senator for the Third senatorial dis
trict.
The third party in Montgomery county,
has nominated H. A. Calhoun for repre-
sentative against A. l.. Adams the demo-
cratic nominee.
The joint debate between Col. Z. D. Ora
ham, the democratic nominee for represen-
tative, and E. P. Padgett, the independent
candidate came of at Hazlehurst Saturday.
McRae Enterprises: The colored man is
going to vote as he pleases this year. He
not going or after so-called party leader
who know less than he does. This fact has
been demonstrated in Telfair and Dodge
counties within the past few weeks.
Last Saturday Or. Ivey of johnson county,
nominee for senator on the third party slate,
and Col Daley Of Wrightsville, democratic
nominee, met in joint debate in Concord
Both demanded the attention Of the crowd.
The democrats were in the majority, though
there were large number of the opposite
party,
Rev. W. A. Huckabee of MoRae has been
appointed elector from his congressional
1000 "a =.
Mr.. Huckabee Is no politician, however, for
he Is too good man to dabble in politics.
He has an appointment and calling far
more honorable than man or parties can
bestow.
A great many people at Long Pond
thought that the primary election held by
the democrats would lessen the excitement of
politics in Lowndes county, out the present
indications are that it was only adding fuel
to the flames. There is a good deal of spec
ulation in regard to the result Of the cleo
ton in October between the democratic
nominee and the Peoples party nominee.
It is generally believed that the race will be
a close one.
The political tricksters Of the third party
at Tweed are using all sorts of conul7ance
TO get the ''nigger vote" But the average
Intelligent darkY is going to vote for the
democratic nominees for the legislature and
for the state officers. They say that Gov.
Northen is their friend. and that a vote
against him and his party will be death
blow to them. Capt. Roe will be elected by
800 majority, notwithstanding the under
hand work being done by his opponents aud
allies.

Want Protection From q Priest.
From the Netc York Sun.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2L-Miss Lizzie O'NeiIl
OF 52O6 State street has a pretty face and a
charming figure. Her family came TO Chi
cago from Cleveland in December last.
Lizzie has had most peculiar experience.
According to one story she was sought in
marriage by the Rev. Edward NJ. Hennes-
sey, Catholic priest. The other has it
that the priest sought to bring about her
marriage with wealthy parishioner. 1t is
said that Father Hennessey, who prepared
Miss O'Neill for her first communion at
Cleveland, fell in love with her. He was a
frequent caller at the house. Then the
family removed to Chicago, and Father
Hennessey was transferred to Dun
cannon, O., and later was placed
In charge of the church at Dubuque,
la. One day last week the priest
unexpectedly called upon the O'Neills. On
last Sunday he called and waited until the
girl returned from church with her affianced,
Cyril Bravo. This enreRed the priest, and
he attacked Bravo, and drove him from the
house. On Monday Hennessey boarded a
State street car, upon which Miss O'Neill
and Bravo were riding. Again the priest
assaulted Bravo, and the woman bacoming
frightened, jumped from the car and was
badly shaken up. Then the girls brother
called upon Archbishop Feehan for protec-
ton. A guard is on duty at the O'Neil
homestead.
Edward O'Neill, brother has sworn out
a warrant charging the ex-priest with as
saulting his sister, himself and her sweet
heart, Cyril Bravo
Mrs. O'Neill asserts that Hennessey has
been planning to marry her daughter to a
wealthy man. She said to-day that in
Cleveland not long ago the priest called
upon her in company Of a man Of means,
and asked her to consent to the marriage of
her daughter to bis friend. Mrs. O'Neill
told the man that her daughter was already
engaged, and that she would not interfere
with her plans.
