1t will be remembered that seve-

the doorstep of Mr.. WV. Wilson,
at West End, having been left
there by some cruel parent. The
child was taken to the Catholic
Orphans home, where it has since

occurrence endeavoring to find
some clue to the affair, but up un-
til recently were Of the opinion
that their work was in vain.
1t has been learned, however,
that a strange couple came to San
Antonio some time ago from Bon
ham, Texas, and stopped at a
boarding house on North Flores
street. After being here some time
the woman, who was not married,
gave birth to a child. The lady
who keeps the boarding house cared
for her, and made several dresses
for the infant. On the afternoon
of the night that the child was left
at the Wilson residence, this man
hired a horse and buggy at Will

the couple, with the baby, went
out for a drive. The man returned
the vehicle, paid for it and moth

ABOUT THE oRTEz MURDER.
More Convicting Evidence The
Wife Brought In.

i
Wife Brought In.
Anastacio Rivas, the Mexican
who was arrested by Detective
George Shoaf, Tuesday afternoon,
accused of the murder of Dolores
OrteZ, at the |. q G.. n. yards Tues
day morning, was transferred to
the county Jail yesterday by the
city authorities, and his case will
be taken before the grand jury
now in session.
| The evidence that has been Sc
cured by the detectives against
Rivas is very strong.
1t seems that Rivas is a worth
less fellow, and has been "vagging"
in San Antonio for some time. Four
| days previous to the murder, Rivas
called at the home of the deceased,
On the corner of Frio and West
Commerce streets. Not finding Or
teZ home, he engaged in CONVEX
sation with Mrs. Ortez, the nature
of which could not be learned.
However, before leaving, Rivas
used some very indecent language,
| and insulted Mrs OrteZ. She re-
paired, shortly after his departure,
to the city hall, where she ex-
pressed a desire to make an aft
davit against him for using abusive
and insulting language. This she
aid not do, as she did not know his
name.
The following day Rivas again
went to the OrteZ home, and found
the man in. The two started down
town together,when the wife of the
deceased said: "Don't go with
that man, he is a hard looking
character, and am afraid of him."
The husband paid but little atten-
ton to his wife's warning aud left,
returning alone late in the night.
Monday night was the next time
the two men were seen together.
Ortez, who was sand dryer at the
1. & G.. n, went to his post of duty
early in the evening. Having re.
ceived check for $35, he was de-
sirous of celebrating" and secured
the services of one Manuel Perez,
to attend to his work while he went
out. Several hours later he re-
turned and said: "Well Manuel,
you keep on working and I'll pay
you for it. l am going out again.
There is ID tramp following
me, and I'll kill him if he contin-
ues." AS he said this Ortez pulled
out a small butcher knife from his
pocket, the same one that was
found in his right hand when the
body was discovered.
A moment after he had uttered
those words, Rivas stepped into
the place where Ortez and Perez
were talking. "You are here again,
are you, you id tramp"
was the remark made by Ortez as
the alleged murderer stepped in.
eyes," was his reply. "Can't you
give me better accommodations
than this ?" said he. Meaning, it
is presumed, that he wanted a
place to sleep. The conversation
continued, when Ortez told Perez
he was going over to the saloon to
get him a bottle of whisky. He
started, and soon after Rivas left
the dry house and was seen stand
ing in dark spot near the place
where the body of the murdered
man was found, it then being 4
o'clock in the morning. When the
body was found the knife and
whisky were also found in his
hands.

A NEW SUN MOTION.
Professor Stevenson Has Completed a Won
derful Invention After Years of Labor.

Professor Stevenson Has Completed a Won
derful Invention After Years of Labor.
Professor E. E. Stevenson, well
known educator and writer of Quincy,
Mass, announces the completion of an
invention on which he has been laboring
for years, which, he says, will revolu-
tionize the present methods of obtaining
motive power. Professor Stevenson has
pursued his Investigations and expert
ments in Quincy all winter and has at
last brought his idea to head. Profess
Or Stevenson said: THE forces which
have thus far been utilized by the genius
Of man are the laws of gravitation and
chemical reaction. In the broad field of
research and investigation we find the
possibilities of the future in molecular
attraction, musical vibration and the re-
fraction Of light.
"To understand the theory on which l
have been laboring you must stunderstand
the correlation of forces or the transmu-
tation of energies. We use force to pro-
duce light. 1t is upon the reverse of
this theory that | have .labOred, and my
experiments are at last proving satisfac-
tory. l have found that the heat of an
ordinary kitchen stove generates energy
sufficient, if controlled, to drive the ma
chinery of the Pillsbury mills, and the
flames of Bunson electric burner would
furnish power to light by electricity 1000
lights"
In Professor Stevenson's experimental
machine, however, the heat of the sun
alone has been used. This machine con-
sists of three brass cylinders connected
by means of tubes and valves with a
glass reflector behind the central cylin-
der. a piston moving laterally connect
ing with a balance wheel gives the mo-
ton. The shaft on which the balance
wheel hangs passes through the end of
the machine and contains drive pulley,
which makes the force available. This
machine is operated by the sun, working
with great rapidity.-Boston Journal.

In DR.. Mines volume of reninis-
cences, " A Tour Around New York. "
the author devotes a paragraph to the
attractions of Battery park and adds
pleasing little story of time before his
own:
I remember a dear old lady who
loved to talk about this park and tell of
the people she had met here and the
scenes she had witnessed, and of these
one man and one mornings adventure
stood out most prominent.
A little thing in white, Ter nurse had
brought her to the Eaik to wirnesa q
civic ceremony, and the crowd prevent
ed her from obtaining good view of
the pageant.
As with child's impatience she tried
handsome elderly gentleman, clad in a
suit of black velvet and with dress
sword at his side, stopped down to her,
inquired pleasantly about her trouble
and then lifted her upon his shoulder
and held her there until the procession
had passed.
Delighted with what she saw, the
child thought little about the gentleman
who had brushed away her trouble, but
thanked him when he released her with
kiss and set her down upon the ground.
AS he moved away the nurse in an awe
struck voice asked the child if she knew
whose arms had held her and then told
her that it was President Washington.
The little eyes watched him out of sight
and never forgot his stately appearance.
I think dear old Mrs. Atterbury was
prouder of having been the heroine OF
this incident than of all the social hon.
ors that afterward fell to her lot

Hot In Australia.

The weather in Australia during the
antipodean summer has been unusually
hot and oppressive. In Adelaide during
January the thermometer several times
registered over 100 degrees in the shade,
and one day it climbed to 107 in the
shade and 163 in the sun. In Melbourne
the 100 notch has been reached more than
once, and the scorching north winds have
made the atmosphere exceedingly op-
pressive. The foregoing figures are from
weather observatory readings, and prob
ably do not represent by several degrees
the temperature Of the city Streets

Niiiepeds.

The little creature which possesses
the distinction Of having more legs than
any other animal is that which belongs
to the family of insects known as mile
peds, or thousand footed. There are
several different species of these, but
they all possess the common character

and when they move one after another
with perfect regularity the effect is pre-
cisely the same on small scale as that

millepeds have as many as $50 separate
