Where away?"
Far out across the intervening plain
a column of flame was darling upward,
gaining force and volume with every
moment. The lieutenant never even
paused to raise the glass to his eyes.
No magnifying power was needed to
see the distant pyre; no prolonged
search to tell him what was meant.
The troopers who had sprung to their
feet and were already eagerly follow
ing turned short in their tracks at his
first word.
Saddle up, men. IT'S the beacon
at the signal peak. !"
Then came u scene of hustle. No
words were spoken; no further orders
given. With the skill of long practice
the men gathered their few belongings,
shook out the dingy horseblankets and
then, after careful folding, laid them
creaseless back of the gaunt withers of
their faithful mounts. The worn old
saddles were deftly set; lariats coiled
and swung from the cantle rings; dusty
old bits and brides adjusted; then came
the slipping into carbine sings and
thimble belts, the quick lacing of Indian
moccasin or canvas logging, the filling of
canteens in the tepid tanks below, while
all the time the cooks and packers
wsre hyinG about gathering up the
pots and pans ana storing rations, bags
and blankets on the roomy apparejos.

CONFESSES HIS CRIME.
ROLLO ]. BURTON WANTED IN
ARIZONA FOR FORGERY.
He Forged the Nnma OF william Bohne
to Certificate of Deposit for
Five Hundred Donars-HIs
Explanation.

San Francisco Examiner: Rollo j.
Burton. the midwinter fair employees,
arrested by Detectives Cody and Sill
vey Saturday night at the instance Of
Wells, Fargo & Co.'s detectives, is
wanted in Yuma, Ariz., for forgery.
Burton was arrested on warrant
from Los Angeles charging him with be-
ing defaulting witness, but this W as
done for the purpose of keeping him in
custody until an officer, with proper war
rants and requisition papers, could come
from Arizona.
The real offense for which Burton is
wanted occurred last summer. On July
IL, 1898, man named William Bohne,
who lives at Ehrenberg, Ariz. purchased
a certificate of deposit for $500 from
Wells, Fargo & Co.'s bank in this city.
A few weeks later man who represent
ed him to be Bohne presented the Ger.
tificate to the private banking firm OF
Gondolfo & Sanguinetti, in Yuma, and
asked to have it cashed. He told such
a straight story that the bankers ad-
vanced him $l25 on his Endorsement of
LILO C6ItluCdto hO Aihh pOCAObCu PAOV
and left $25 to be placed to the
credit of Thomas Hamilton of Ehren-
berg. About week later the bankers
received notice that Bohne had drawn
on them for the balance due on the GER
tiicate through Ii. Ii. Watkins, drug
gist OF Xingmsn.
All seemed straight until the real Will
liam Bohne sent communication to
the bank in the city, saying he had lost
his certificate and requesting that new
one be issued. The forgery was then
and on investigation resulted
in finding that Burton had negotiated the
certificate.
Burton admits all that is charged
against him to be true, but protests that
he found the certificate at time when
he was penniless and without friends.
He declares his willingness to 60 back
to Arizona and plead guilty to the charge
Of forgery. An officer will leave Yuma
this morning with papers for Burton's
