FEARS A MOB.

Maxine Martinez Says he is Not
Afraid of the Galiows.
Henry Merritt was at Floresville yes
terday and took advantage of the OPP
portunity to visit Maxine Martinez,
who is in the Wilson county jail for the
murder of an old Mexican man and
woman and young girl at Floresville
last week.
HE is one of the hardest looking
men l have ever seen," said Mr.. Mer-
rift. "He can't look a person in the
face when one looks at him any length
of time. He has a regular football
head; that is, long, bushy hair. He
says he is not afraid to die on the gal
lows and all that he fears is mob.
He says that he loved the girl and
knowing that he couldn't have her he
was determined to kill her. The re-
port that the grand jury has indicted
Martinez is wrong. The grand jury
is now in session and it is expected
will report a bill against him today.
1t is believed that he viii be tried at
once and that in two weeks Martinez
will have expiated his crime on the
gallows."

superintendent r. S. Wakefield's men
on the San Antonio Edison line had
about all they could do yesterday in
handling the crowds to and from Riv-

The cause of all this traffic was the

Southwestern park.
The cars ran through to Scheuer-
meyer's and carried the people all the
way for a nickle and an extra car met
them at the Riverside switch and car
ried the crowds down to the park free,
making the trip to either place cost
only five cents.

rious amusements until 10 o'clock when
the return to the city was made, after
a days thorough enjoyment in the

ROBBED UNCLE SAM
POWDER MAGAZINE OF THE POST
ENTERED AND ROBBED.
Guard Has Been Increased And Bee
currence Will Be Prevented-Fort
Sam Houston Items.

An attempt has been made to rob
Uncle Sans powder magazine at this
post, but by whom it is not known.
The first information Of the affair was
gained Saturday evening when the
sentry on duty near the magazine re-
ported to the officer of the day upon
being relieved that he had discovered
evidences of persons having entered the
magazine and an investigation was
Immediately made which resulted In
the discovery that an entrance had
been really effected and small guam
tity of the explosive article stolen. To
prevent the repetition Of this the guard
was increased Immediately by the post
commander, Lit. Col. Whitside, three
extra men for each watch being placed
on duty to guard the magazine, making
the total number of pickets on duty
twenty-seven. The officers haven't
the least idea whom the guilty par
ty or parties are, whether soldiers or
civilians, but are determined that 1t
shall not occur again. 1t is very Sc
rious offense, this robbing of Uncle
Sam, and if the perpetrators are cap
tured they will not fare so lightly.
Private Hoffa and Reid, recently
tried by courtmartial at this post for
being absent from their post at Fort
Clark without leave. and who were
sentenced to two months at hard labor,
have served their sentence out,yester-
day being their last day. They left
today for their station at Fort Clark to
rejoin their command.
There was an unusually large num-
Der of persons from the city out at the
post yesterday evening at 1880 to wit
ness the ceremony of flag lowering and
sunset gun firing.
An order has been received at post
headquarters from the War depart
ment to discharge Private Bauer of
the Eighteenth infantry on the oath
of this month.
Private Eugene L. Hearn, of the bat
terry, has secured three months leave
of absence from duty to be spent on a
visit to his home.
Sergeant Gray, of troop A, Fifth
cavalry who allowed a prisoner to es-
cape from him at Hondo recently while
bringing him here from Fort Clark,
and who has been under arrest since
that time, has been tried by the gener-
al courtmartial in session at the post
and fined 500 for the offense, very
light fine, considering the gravity OF
the charge. He left today to rejoin his
troop a happier man, the suspense OF
awaiting the courts sentence being
over.
Private VIM. Murray, of the battery
has secured a one-month furlough.
1t happened recently that green
young fellow from the country enlist
ed at the post, so it is said, and after
being assigned to his company was
very slow in learning the commands.
Directly after his enlistment, his moth
er and little sister came to the city and
of course visited the post to see George
as that was the would-be soldiers
name. While there they waited to see
the evening parade and as the men
went marching by George was some
what out of step, whereupon his little
sister exclaimed: Oh, mamma, Look!
everybody is out of step but George.

to drill with such a horrid, clumsy set
