After leaving ledge of rock and

bleaching Horses.

At Batesville, Ark, recent shooting
affray brought to notice a woman
known as Sorrel Sue. She had always
appeared in public riding a sorrel
horse. 1t is believed she belonged to
a gang who stole horses.
A surgeon who was summoned to at
tend one of her admirers, who had been
wounded in the row, mistook his way
and wandered into Sues cabin. Be-
fore he could be hustled out he saw
things which aroused his suspicious.
These he reported to Sheriff Timcoe,
who, with posse, managed to sur
round the den Of horse thieves, captur-
ing Sue and two of her gang. He
found that Sue had applied the means
of bleaching her own hair to that Of
her horses. When the posse entered
they found horse enveloped in a jack
ct made of rubber coats, being treated
to a sulphur vapor bath. The appli-
ances were very ingenious and worked
very well.
A black or bay horse would be stolen
and run into the bleachery. After its
color was changed and its name and
tail trimmed the disguise became SO
pronounced that without any risk the
animal could be taken in daylight
through the very district from which
1t had been stolen. 1t was Sues busi-
ness not only to superintend the

MURDER AT FLORENCE.

Grande water service, running the pump
at the Arkansas river, which supplies
the railroad reservoir, while returning
from work at S:15 p.. m, walking on
Pixies Peak avenue in thickly inhab-
tied section of this city, and in the glare
of an electric street lamp, was shot
down by holdups. The place where the
shooting was done was opposite the resi-
dence of S. Siess, merchant, who with
Mrs. Siess had not returned home for
the night. The house was dark and one
theory is that the party or parties who
did the shooting were trying to gain
an entrance into the Siess residence for
robbery and were probably molested by
Peavy, and for fear of detection shot
him and ran. This theory is most like
ly, for IL the robbers had been after
Peavy's money or had him spotted they
would have tackled him on the out
skirts of the city from whence he came.
The fact that the perpetrators did not
take watch or money casts mystery
over the cause of the murder unless it
is to hide their work in some way.

Captain General De Campos, the city
Of Santa Clara, capital Of the province
Of that name, is being slowly but surely

He is openly recruiting his followers
and has just burned all the houses of

All the insurgent leaders, including
Maxine Gomez, are sending messen-
gers and circulars to the big farmers
and planters ordering them to contrib
ute to the treasury Of the Cuban re-
public, under penalty of having their
property destroyed by fire.
The result is that the insurgents are
really better provided with funds than
are the Spanish government officials
here. The money thus obtained from
the governments friends, the planters
and big farmers, is in time forwarded
