AN ESCAPED CONVICT KILLED.
Ches. Mitchell, Colored, Killed While
Resisting Capture on
Lost Prairie

Chas. Mitchell, an escaped con
vict from the Arkansas penitentia-
ry, who was sent up from Clarke
county, in February, and who ef-
fected his escape from Sunny Side
a few months since, was shot and
almost instantly killed, on the farm
of Isaac Thompson, colored, on Lost
Prairie, yesterday, while resisting
capture, at the hands of U. S. Dep
uty Marshal ]. A. Wells, and his
colored assistant, Walter Bradley,
who had been assisting in trailing
Mitchell through the bottoms.
The facts of the killing, as OBJ
tanned by us, are as follows: Mar
shall Wells and his colored assistant
came up on Mitchell, while the lat
ter was picking cotton in Thomp-
sons field, on Lost Prairie, shortly
after noon yesterday, having fol
lowed him through the bottoms to
that point, from Prescott, Ark.
where the first clue to his wherea-
bouts was obtained. The officer
rode up to within a short distance
Of Mitchell, and ordered him to
throw up his hands, at the same
time informing him of his arrest as
a fugitive criminal. Mitchell an
swered by drawing a pistol, and
opening fire on his would be capt
ors. Both the officer and his asso-
ciate answered in kind. When the
smoke of battle had cleared away
Mitchell was found lying on the
ground mortally wounded, four bull
let's having taken effect in different
portions of his body, one of which
penetrated his left breast, produc-
ing death in a few moments. Nine
shots we're fired in all, three each
by the officers and the deceased.
Marshal Wells at once notified the
local officers and coroner's Jury
was impaneled to investigate the
killing, resulting in verdict in &C
cordance with the above facts, JUS
tifying the officer and exhonerating
him and his assistant from blame,
on the ground of justifiable homi-
eide, by officers in discharge of
duty.
A standing reward was out for
the capture of Mitchell, offered by
penitentiary officials. He was
known as a desperate negro, and
had succeeded in eflecting two es-
capes from the penitentiary during
the brief period of his confinement
therein, He was convicted at Ar
kadelphia, on charge of forgery,
and sentenced to a term of two
years. Officer Wells and his assist
ant, after hearing the verdict of
the Coroner, made their way to
this city, from whence the facts of
the killing were telegraphed to Off
Gals at Little Rock. 1t is also
claimed that Mitchell was an escap-
ed convict from the Texas peniten-
tiary.

clared their intention of taking up
desert lands.
Another law in the interest of
western settlers was one enabling
those who desire to locate on other
than mineral lands to secure a sur
vey by depositing with the govern
ment a sum sufficient to cover the
costs of the survey.

When we give to our manufact-
urers free raw materials we UNI
shackle American enterprise and
ingenuity, and that will open the
doors of foreign markets to the re-
ceptiou of our wares and give OPP
portunities for the continuous and
remunerative employment of Amer
lean labor.
With materials cheapened by
their freedom from tariff charges
the cost of their production must
be CORRESPONDENCE cheapened
Thereupon justice and fairness to
the consumer would demand that
the manufacturer be obliged to sub
NIT to such a readjustment and
modification of the tariff upon their
finished goods as would secure to
the people the benefit of the reduc-
ed cost of their manufacture and
shield the consumer from the ex'
actness Of inordinate profits.
1t viii thus be seen that free raw
materials and just and fearless
regulation and reduction Of the tar
i'll to meet the changed conditions
would carry to every humble home
in the land the blessings of increas
ed comfort and cheaper living, The
millions of our country who have
fought bravely and well for tariff
reform should be expected to con
tinue the struggle boldly, challeng
ing open w.!rfare and constantly
guarding against treachery an(
half-heartedness in their camp.
Tariff reform will not be settled

MIDWINTRR FAIR NOTES.
THE MODEL FARM AND THE RE-
LIEF MAP
VIII Prove Very Attractive Features
of the southern California Build
ing-A Car to Be sent
North Tonight.

The employees of the Hollenbeck
hotel sent a subscription to the mid
winter fair fund, consisting of one day e
pay all around.
Mr.. D. Freeman and J. D. Stimson
will visit Pomona today to confer with
tbs board of trade OF that city in re-
gard to midwinter fair matters.
A car of material for the exhibit will
be sent north tonight. Among the con-
tents will be- the relief map OF Los An
geles county, the model orange ranch,
pictures for the art department, fruit
ana various sundries.
The relief map, which is the fret OF
the kind ever made of the county, will
one OF the features of the en-
tire Southern California display. 1t
was prepared from the government con-
tour maps and is very accurate. A
bird's-eye view of all the prominent lea
lures of the county is presented. Every
town is given, as we'll as all OF the rail-
road systeme. The watersheds are
shown, as are all the valleys and priuci-
pal cafions. Antelope valley is we'll
represented, as is the rolling country
from this city to Long Beach on the
south.
The horizontal scale is two inches to
the mile and the vertical one inch to the
1000 feet
The map was made by Mr.. Fred ].
Behre, and under the supervision OF the
following special committee appointed
by the general county committee: 9.
H. Keyes, Capt. George j. Ainsworth
and @. d. Willard.
The model orange orchard
is also another feature. Aperfect estab
lishment is shown the coy cottage,
the front lawn, the barn and the grounds,
embellished with handsome shade trees.
At the rear of the barn is the orange
orchard in full bearing. The feature of
the model is to show the three different
methods of irrieating-furrows, basins
and flooding. The burrows are run be-
tween the rows of the trees, which are
irrigated BY means OF basins or cups dug
around them. At the rear of the or
chard lie piece of land implanted, but
in process of cultivation by means of
furrow irrigeting. The flooding is done
upon an alfalfa patch in the far corner of
the grounds.
In the corner by the house ia a min
iature reservoir that will supply the
water which will be run all OF the time,
thus showing the three systems in full
blast at once.
The map is 10x15 feet, while the farm
is 6xl5 feet. They are made OF plaster
of Paris and painted. They are also
mnde in sections and can be taken apart
and occupy s comparatively small space
when packed. Mesers. N. H. Hosner OF
