CAUGHT At PORT HARTFORD,
Sheriff Cunningham of Stockton
Runs an Embezzler to
Earth.
Eduard Nelson to Be Brought Back
and Tried for the Theft
of $4,000.

STOCKTON, CAL, April 3.-The Sheriff's
Office to-day received a telegram from
Sheriff Cunningham at Port Hartford. San
Luis Obispo County, saying that he had
captured Eduard C. c. Nelson and would
be in this city with his prisoner tomorrow
night.
The Sheriff received information on
Monday that Nelson was somewhere in
Southern California. and started for the
south on Tuesday morning. He was sup
posed TO be in Oakland looking up the
gold-brick swindle, but instead was hunt
ing for the defaulting bookkeeper of
Thomas IL Buell..
When it was discovered that Nelson had
EN- bezzled about $l6,0 COO belonging to the
old firm OF White Il Thomas, and their
successors, Thomas d Buell., warrant was
issued for his arrest, charging him with fel-
ony EN- bezzlement, but the matter was kept
quiet; and while the story of his flight and
stea!lngs was published at the time the
impression was given out by the members
of the firm that nothing would be done to
the man who had been stealing from them
Tor so many years.
Nelson was employed by White e.
Thomas about sixteen years ago. and was
looked upon as brother, according to
Mr.. White. He was trusted with all the
cash OF the concern. and this confidence
was not abused until about eight years

IN A SACRAMENTO JAIL,
Daughter of. a Suisun Rancher
Arrested on a Charge of
Vagrancy.
Was a Leader in Society, but Fled
With a Gambler From a Home
of Luxury.

SACRAMENTO, CAL. April 3.-Miss
Aggie Casey, handsome and accom-
plished young woman, the daughter of a
wealthy farmer who resides near Suisun,
and who has always moved in the most
select society, occupies a cell in the City
Prison charged with being vagrant. The
arrest of the young woman reveals a
strange case of depravity and the case is
quite puzzling one to the authorities.
For the past five weeks the girl mas been
an inmate of disorderly house on L
street, in this city, and has been support
ing a young man named w. C. Hardie
The latter is said to be gambler who has
taken advantage of the girls infatuation
for him to entice her from home of lux
ury aid ease to lead life of shame.
After the girls disappearance an earnest
search was instituted to discover her
wherea bouts. and when she was located
every endeavor was made to reclaim her,
but without effect. She preferred the So
clety of Hardie.
A brother of the girl came to the city
last night and obtained an audience with
her through the aid of the police.
When he found that She was proof
against his persuasion he caused the ar
rest of her and Hardie. Another young
couple, giving the names of Harry Robin
and Nellie Owen, were arrested at the
same time and on the same charge.

ago, when he began dipping into the FIRMS

ago, when he began dipping into the firm S
money.
While he did not live fast life, he lived
well and always had money to spend.
During some months he would take as
much as 5000 above his salary, and in
others he would content himself with
less. He covered his populations by
making false footings in the cash book,
and in this way kept up the thefts for
years.
When the business of White & Thomas
was turned over to Thomas & Buell. three
years ago the books were not exported and
Nielsen was retained in their employ. A
short time ago it was decided to make a
change, as the business OF the firm was
falling off and an expert was placed upon
the books
When this was done Nielsen at once left
for San Francisco. and thereafter nothing
was heard of him until Monday, when
Sheriff Cunningham learned that he was
In the southern part OF the State.
The defaulting bookkeeper has a wife
and several children here. They live in
their own home on San Joaquin street.
The father of Nielsen sent from Denmark
several years ago enough money to pur-
chase the house. but insisted that it be
placed in the name of the children, as he
evidently knew of mis- sons propensity for
spending his earnings, and others too.
Nielsen was we'll liked here. He was a
good companion and fond of the company
of others. Several years ago he was an ex-
pert swordsman, and took part in the ex-
hibitions given by the German Turner'S.
Not one Of his many friends ever
dreamed that he was other than one of
the most honest men in the country. He
was secretary and treasurer of local
lodge of Odd Fellows, but so far nothing
has been found amiss in his accounts with
the lodge.

STOCKTON, CAL, April 3.-There was
joint meeting last night of the Native
Daughters and Native Sons to consult
with reference to holding floral carnival

time during the present month. The ex-
act date was not settled upon, but the

make the affair a success.
The Agricultural Pavilion will be used
for the carnival and the immense building
will be decorated throughout with flowers

Stockton has long been celebrated for it's
pretty girls and it is intended to show the
outside world on this occasion just what
an array of feminine loveliness there is
here.
The other ladies of the city will assist
the Native Daue hters in making the affair
success, and quantities of flowers hav-
been promised the projectors of the care

TO IMPROVE SAN RAFAEL
Leading Citizens Will Organize
for the Advancement of
the Town.
United Effort to Be Made to Secure a
Reduction of Railway
Rates.

SAN RAFAEL, CAL, April 3.-San
Rafael has awakened in earnest and in
tends to put itself forward. An improve
ment club is to be organized and the pro-
ject of running ferry from San Francisco
to San Quentin and an electric line from
there to San Rafael is to be revived ALI
this talk of improvement is the outcome
of the mass-meeting of March 10 to secure
reduction of passenger rates from the
railroad companies. The committee ap-
pointed at that meeting to visit the presi-
dents of the broad and narrow gauge lines
running into San Rafael and ask for 25-
cent fare has reported the result of its con-
ferences, and as was expected. it did not
succeed in inducing the roads to lower the
rate, which at present is so cents for the
round trip, with commutation tickets at
S. a month.
President Arthur w. Foster of the
Donahue line said that he could take no
action as the litigation in which his road
was involved was at present in a very un-
settled state. He would not even express
an opinion, but said he was confident that
the battle in the courts would soon be
ended and he would then be ready to con-
fer with the citizens of San Rafael Mr.
Foster was several weeks ago served with
a restraining order enjoining him from re-
duclng the rates.
]. B. Stetson, the president of the North
Pacific Coast road, said positively that he
would not reduce the passenger rates, as
it would mean loss of $4,000 year to
his road, and as the line was now paying
interest on its bonds only he did not see
how he could consider the proposition
at all.
AT subsequent meeting it was sug-
gested that an improvement club be or
ganized. Many years ago San Rafael had
such an organization, and it did world
OF good. meeting will shortly be called
to organize.

ARIZ ONA'S NEW TOWN.
Rapid Grosrth of Pearee Ia the Pas
Three Months.


Three Months.
PEARCE, ARIz., April 3.-Two or three
months ago one little house and tent
stood near small mountain at the edge
of Sulphur Valley. Gold was discovered,
and the principal claim bonded for $275,-
600, and now Pearce is thriving town,
with stores, restaurants. saloons, of course,
and boarding-h houses. This week English
capitalists, who are interested in the "big
mine." accompanied by their wives, in
spected the property and were undorbt-
edly highly pleased with the showing-so
much so that it is probable that its sale
will be eneompassed before the appointed
time, July.
Uncle Sam has smiled broadly on Pearce
and appointed Postmaster, and nothing
now remains to complete the successful
debut Of the town but water, which may
be struck at any moment. Town aIlot-
ments are selling at 81 foot, and every
day adds new immigrants to the census
roll. Pearce is fifteen miles from Wilcox,
on the line of the Southern Pacific.

WANTED IN SAC RAMENTO.
Sheriff Johnson Armed With a
Warrant for James Cal.
landine.
Accused Of Completely in Series of
Streetcar Hold.Ups at the
Capital.

MARYSVILLE, CAL, April 3.-Sheriff
Johnson and Deputy Fisher OF Sacramento
County arrived here to-day with warrant
for the arrest of James Callendine, who is
wanted for alleged completely in series of
stage robberies in Sacramento recently.
Callendine is living on ranch near this
city, and thither the officers have gone
after their man.
1t is learned here that before Sheriff
Johnson left the capital detectives ar
rested a man named Baker, who was en-
ployed in the Southern Pacific shops. He
is accused OF being the confederate of Cal
lendine, and was apprehended while at
work. The hold-ups charged against the
pair number half-dozen. the sums re-
ceived ranging from few cents to $125.
The higbwaymen attacked cars at all
hours of the night in the suburbs of the
city, and were careless in the use of their
revolvers on refractory conductors or
passengers.
1t is learned that Callendine and Baker
have been under suspicion for some time,
but not until last Sunday did the officers
secure evidence sufficient to warrant their
arrest. On that day two vagrants were
arrested for engaging in a street fracas,
and one. while in the city jail told story
duplicating Callendine and Baker in the
robberies.
Callendine has had checkered career.
Several months ago he shot and killed
Jack" Harris, who detected him in COM
pany with Mrs. Harris on street. He
was acquitted of the murder charge,
mainly through the testimony of the
woman he made widow, who swore that
the shooting was in self-defense. Two
weeks ago Callendine and Mrs Harris
were married in this City, and since then
they have lived on ranch few miles dis
tant.
