4 single highwayman, Friday after
noon held up and attempted to rob
car on the TacOma-SteilacOom cleo
trio line. About four miles out from
Tacoma, q tall man, roughly dressed,
hailed the car, which stopped and let
him aboard. AS he got on the plat
form he pulled a blue dotted calico
mask, with holes cut for the eyes,
down over his face and produced a
revolver, and ordered Superintendent
Dame of the line and MotOrman Well
man to the rear of the car. They
complied slowly, and he followed,
ordering the men and the passengers
to hold up their hands and the ladies
to sit still. Dame and Wellman had
entered rear compartment used for
carrying baggage and freight. The
robber evidently thought them safely
disposed of for he paid no more atten-
ton to them, but commenced relieving
George B. Evans, the conductor of his
valuables. This done he command
William +. Hacker, broker, to stand
up and be searched. In the mean
time Superintendent Dame had taken
out his revolver and come in behind
Hacker, where he waited an op-
portunity of shooting. A moment
later he placed his arm on Hackers
shoulder and fired at the robbcr who
returned the fire. Dame fired two
shots and the robber two minutes
later was lying dead while Dame had
been shot in the arm and Jewett, n
passenger, in the leg. One of Danes
bullets passed through the right arm
of the robber and the other through
the left arm, both entering at what
seems to be exactly the same spot.
They entered his body striking the
lungs or heart. Grooming heavily he
staggered backward to the front plat.
form and fell off the steps headfore-
most. His feet were resting on the
track. The bones in Danes left fore
arm are shattered. Jewett has a
serious injury in his leg. The robbers
third bullet passed through the door
of the baggage compartment and
struck Motorman Wellman on his left
breast, but inflicted no injury. The
robbers body was placed on a car and
taken to Tacoma where it lies await
ing identification. He has very dark
hair, dark blue eyes and dark brown
moustache. He was six feet two
inches in height and apparently
thirty-five years of age, and we'll built.
The only distinguishing mark is a
heavy dent or scar, apparently an old
bullet wound, which commences in the
center of his forehead at the hair and
extends upwards an inch and half.
M. S. Burke, while returning to his
home in Spokane, Friday night, was
held up by two men. They halted
him and commanded him to throw up
his hands. Burke responded with a
straight-out, right-arm blow that
struck one of the men and knocked
the recipient over the small fence near
by. Burke and the remaining man
exchanged blows, in which the former
received blackened eye. The two
men ran off. The police are of the
opinion that the assailants are men,
bers of gang of hobos, one of whom,
named Marin, was arrested on informa-
ton furnished by Burke.

TRACED BY AN IRON SHOE
Detectives Succeed in Arresting Sus-
pect by Following Novel Clue

Traced by the imprint Of his iron shoe,
Joe Heeney was arrested for burglary
and yesterday held to the criminal court
by Justice Severson. The arrest was the
result of clever bit Of detective work
on the part of officers Phalen and Ham
lton of the West Chicago avenue sta
ton.
Last week burglars broke into two
freight cars standing on Panhandle
siding at Green street. Phalen and Ham
ilton were detailed to find the thieves.
In looking about the cars they saw foot
prints in the mud. One of these was the
imprint of an iron shoe, and the officers
took plaster of paris casts Of the foot
prints. Then began the search for a
man with an iron shoe. Monday the
officers met Heeney, cripple, who
wears an iron shoe. They took him to
the police station. A cast was made OF
his shoe and it proved identical with the
imprints made near the freight cars
Heeney was therefore charged with
burglary and locked up. Thus far he
has made no defense.-Chicago Chron-

MEXICO'S FLOWER FESTIVAL
A Picturesque Carnival Which Dates
From the Conquest

On Friday was the famous Paseo de las
Flores a custom which is said to date from
before the conquest. The Viga canal early
presented an animated appearance. 1t was
crowded with the canoes of Indian women
bringing in their flowers and vegetables.
Each Indian woman in her canoe looked as
if seated in floating flower garden, and
all were crowned with garlands of poppies.
1t Is probable that this festival was held
in Aztec times to celebrate the return of
spring, but the Christian priests converted
this day into a commemoration in honor of
our Lady of Sorrows. In oher words this is
the day on which the Catholic church
commentaries the sufferings undergone
by the virgin during the Passion of Christ.
This is also the saints day of all ladies
bearing the name of Dolores, commonly
abbreviated into Lola.
The scene is one Of the most picturesque
that can be seen in Mexico. The surface
of the canal is alive with floral laden ca
noes gliding swiftly along. The banks are
| crowded with men on horseback. people
in carriages and pedestrians. Indian .wo-
men occupy every available spot, Where
they offer food. drink or flowers to the

Delicate Machinery Changes tn
Plates--A Story Of Stellar
Photography

Special Correspondence to The Herald.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. April 20.-A new
S-inch rectangular Photographic tele-
scope, intended for use in the Harvard
college observatory, is almost completed
When finished, it will be the most re-
markable instrument of the sort in ex-
istence. It Is designed to take, auto
matically, photographs Of the stars.
Without the assistance Of any person. 1t
will change and expose the plates ac-
cording to the particular program de-
sired. It Is being built under the super
vision of w. H. Atwill. the expert con-
nected with the observatory.
To the non-astronomical mind, the i'm
portance of this telescope photography
of the stellar bodies may not at first
assume it's rightful Importance. In Its
place, however, 1t is fully as valuable
an aid to charting the heavens as was
the cotton gin or the spinning jenny
to the great industry of the south. 1t is
a labor saving device for the scientist,
and one which renders possible the pho
ltographing Of certain features OF the
heavens. Of which it has heretofore been
impossible to secure a picture. Many
persons not familiar with astronomy
have seen the so-ca1led charts Of the
stars, but without an idea of the vast
calculation and effort necessary to se-
cure the correct location and appearance
