Insanity will perhaps not be the plea Of
George Taylor, alias Jones, who is the
original and only Jack the Slasher." for
his conduct has undergone a great change
since the officers first arrested him. When
there was only the one case against him
he was insane, but now that evidence in
about fifteen cases has been procured, he
realizes that he can no longer work the in
sanity dodge to any advantage, and that the
penitentiary, and that for a long period, is
his only hope. Realizing this, as he does
he has given the officers information from
day to day until now a large part of the
unslashed plumber has been recovered, and
there are cases enough against him to send
him to states prison for the rest of his
natural life and little more.
Taylor is by no means the ignorant and
CnSophisucated countryman he endeavored
TO show himself. He is a shrewd criminal.
and even in his earlier days on a farm he
showed a degree of smartness and a desire
for taste of city life that is seldom seen

Virginia under the circumstances that sur
rounded him. His father although poor,

Irving City Life.

Visions Of city life had entered the young
mans mind, and, having saved few dollars.
he concluded that he would go TO Richmond,
as that to him was an ideal city, and il
was the place where he expected TO gather
his fortune. And so he went there, but be-
ing suspected of completely in two burglaries
of which he was perhaps guilty, he suddenly
departed and went back to the country.
Still farm life failed to have any further at
fractions for him. He got tired OF following
the plow and harrow, and at last he con-
cluded to come here and see his uncle, which
he did. This was during the latter part OF
the summer or early in the fall. One visit
to his uncle's house satisfied him, and then,
poor boy, he succeeded in getting the
of the stable loft as his place of abode.
Here he remained until the time of his ar
rest, as heretofore published in The Star.
As already stated, the prisoner was at first
uncommunicative and assumed the conduct
of a man with disordered brain, but he
subsequently weakened and has told of the
whereabouts of some of the plumber.

 I A gentleman who returned yesterday from visit to Mesa said that one of the arguments used there in favor of county division is that there is an effort on the part of Phoenix to keep the south side in the background, and that real estate men here misrepresent the condition of affairs to the disadvantage of Mesa and the surrounding country. l The impression is certainly incorrect. Many of the prominent business men of Phoenix are heavily interested in south side real estate. The superiority of the Mesa country as fruit growing region is recognized here with satis. faction ha' fly less genuine than if the country lay immediately adjacent to Phoenix.
 There are two men in Phoenix who have just had long and peculiar trip, horseback ride from Washington. They were engaged in farming there, but the almost constant rains rendered the business almost prohtless. They sold out and decided to emigrate to a country where sunny days are more numerous. They set out on horseback, came down through California and made tour of the southern part of the state without finding what they were looking for. They crossed the Colorado at Yuma and came up the Gila and Salt River valleys, arriving Tn Phoenix day before yesterday. They are pleased with the country and expect to pur- chase ranches here.

 COLON, March 2.-The British war ship Cleopatra has arrived from Blue fields. It is learned that her con- mander left there an armed force of eighty men, ten officers and three boats, with instructions to protrect the Mos quito chiefs against any attempt of the Nicaragua government to break the treaty of 1860 securing an autonomy to the former. On demand of the com mander the state of siege was with drawn and the Cleopatra came here to cable the admiral of the British fleet at Jamaica for instructions. As soon as
