Ridiculous RumOrs.

Washington, Dec. 2O.-The as
sertion that the German fleet
under Prince Henry will 90 to
Samoa and Hawaii, thus creating
a menacing situation for the
United States, is ridiculed in all
official quarters here. When, the
reports were called to the atten-
ton of the German representa-
tives they laughed heartily at the
idea of German diversion against
Samoa or Hawaii. Nothing of this
kind has ever been considered.
The German fleet will go to China,
via the Suez canal, and its desti
nation is kiao Chou Bay.
Germany, the United States
Great Britain are parties to tri-
partite arrangement for the gov
ornment of Samoa, and although
the plan has not proved satissac-
tory, there has ben no recent fric
ton, and at no time a condition
which would call for naval
demonstration. Germany has
taken no interest in the anncxa-
ton Of Hawaii to the United
States, and her only interests there
are those of the 400 German
citizens who form Il considerable
part of the wealthy sugar plant
ing community.

DEATH OF CORA EUNICE NISBET.

Death, that certain but always
unwelcome visitor, on the 31st,
Oct. 1897, entered the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. f. Nisbet, and
bore away lite Eunice their only
daughter and child.
Cora EUnice Nisbet was born
Oct. 7, 1895, and died Oct. 31st,
1897. Two years and twenty
four days were sufficient for the
fulfilment Of her mission in this
world. Though every effort with
in the power of loved ones was
put forth to retain her pure spirit
here that she might cheer those
most dear to her; yet, methinks,
when our knowledge is quick
ened by heavenly realities, we
shall see, that her short existence
here was no disadvantage to her.
Eunice was unusally bright, for
one of her years, and she was
remarkably lovely in disposition.
Though the hearts OF the father
and mother are bleeding, because
of the loss of their brightest jewel, ,
yet they are wonderfully solaced
by the blessed assurance, that
their little Eunice is sweetly
resting in the arms of the loving
Saviour.
Not gone from memory,
y OF gone from love,
But gone To our Fathers house above"

o! The Joys upon the heights"

Special Dispatch TO The CALL.

DENVER, Dec. ia special to the
Rocky Mountain News from Albuquerque,
n. NJ, says: The names of the five train
robbers arrested on Monday by the posse
OF Deputy United States MarshaIs, under
Special Wells-Fargo Officer ]. n. Thacker
in Eastern Arizona, near the Mexican
line, are W. H. Warderman, 7. S. Keep
part, Henry Marshall, Walter Hoffman
and Leonard Alverson. After their cap
ture the men were taken to Tucson, Ariz.,
for safe keeping, but United States Mar
shall G. n. Foraker to-day went to Tucson
to demand their immediate return to New
Mexico, as the crime was committed In
this Territory.
TUCSON, ARIZ., Dec. 15.-The Stems
Pass trainrobbers were brought to Tucson
this morning by United States Marshal
Griffith posse. The account of the pur-
suit and capture as told by one of Mar
shall Griffith's posse is as follows:
Il was accompanied by Marshal Foraker,
and our posse consisted of four men from
New Mexico and four men from Arizona.
We took the trail at Stems Pass and fol-
lowed it without stop for about two days
and for distance of about rs miles. We
found them about 8 clock Monday morn
ing in a cabin on ranch. The cabin was
way up in the noun; aims, in an almost in
accessible locality, about twenty or twenty
five miles from the Mexican line. The
roUb RS, who were taken completely by
surpg 80, made no resistance. and from all
appearances they did not intend to go any
further and had been living in the cabin
where they were found before. They are
all COW boys and known by the authorities
OF this Territory, having worked in differ
ent localities.
''At the track the trail of the robbers
was quickly found, and we started in pur-
suit, dividing into two forces, one taking
the trail and the other takin. another di-
rection. The posse VIII ch followed the
trail on the south side of the railroad
track soon came upon the spot where the
robbers had left theii horses. In their
haste they left two horses behind, one of
which was saddled and tethered and the
other was hoboled. The horses were
branded with the Erie Cattle Company's
brand. The saddle was a No. 1 doab.e
cinCh. In the saddle-bags was found a
good pair OF tieldglasses, a razor and
shaving brush.
I'VE brought them to Tucson because
their arrest was made in Arizona, but
they will be taken to New Mexico for trial,
l do not know how soon, but within a
