Only one shot was fred. 1t struck De

THE PRISONER.
The prisoner was securely bound
guard until an.offcer arrived. Threats
of mob violence were heard and il was
feared that an attempt would be made
to lynch him, but the men with Win
chesters were not molested.
Constable Tom Rogers finally ar
rived and took charge of the prisoner
and justice Scare of AlamogOrdo was
summoned to hold the inquest over
the remains of De Mules.
Jacobo Flores, the murderer, had
been in the employ of De Mules about
reputation, although possessed of q
surly disposition. He Is small thin
man and has not the ferocious look u.s.
ually attributed to q red handed muir
derer.
When seen last night at the county

that De Mules owed him S29 which he

A reporter this morning found the
prisoner in the Santa F'e train, ir
charge of an officer. He seemed DON
tented and we'll satisfied with the stee
bracelets which bound his hands to-
gether. He talked freely concerning
the killing and his connection with De
Mules. He said he had been working
for De Mules for a good while
and In all that time he had received NJ
settlement from him. He worked along
and whenever he needed little money
he would ask De Mules for 1t. He said
he had repeatedly demanded q settle
ment but was not successful In obtain
ing one. He denied having shot De
Mules while his back was turned. He
said they were facing each other; that
De Mules was advancing when he fired
the fatal shot. The prisoner does not
look like desperate character; on the
contrary he has very intelligent face
and seems cool and self-possessed
There were quite number of his
friends on the train and as it pulled
out he bid them cheerful goodbye.

GOLD DIGGERS BUNCOED.
Counterfeit Bills Passed on Miners III
the Klondike Supposed to Have
Been Printed in Delaware.


For some time miners in the klon-
dixie have been victimized by counter
felt $lOO bills, which were given in ex-
change for gold dust.
Over five thousand OF these spurious
bills are said to have been sent to klon-
dixie. They have been SO freely circu-
lated that the banks are refusing to ac-
cept 500 bills.
Secret service detectives report that
they have several persons under surveil-
lance whose past records justify their
connection with the case.
The connecting link between this story
from the Klondike and Delaware is in
the fact that the notes were supposed
to have been printed in this state.
Some months ago there was an issue of
spurious $lOO bills which it was strongly
suspected came from this state.
For several months the state swarmed
with secret service men and it was while
on the hunt for these plates that the
Dover counterfeiters were located.
They were side issue. The real game
was the plates from which those 500
bills were printed.
The "iong green which is causing SO
much trouble in the klondike, tallies in
description with the notes for which
Delaware was so thoroughly secured.
The paper and ink are said to be of
government make, excepting the red ink
used for numbering the bills. This is of
ordinary quality, unable to resist acid.

ESCAPED The ABDUCTORS.
COrporal Mascot s'Skeet" johnson
Nearly Captured by Tennessee
/ Soldiers at French Street

Delaware's finest, Corporal Skeet"
johnson, famous colored mascot of the
Delaware Regiment and an important
member Of Company H, had narrow
escape from being abducted by the Sixth
Tennessee Volunteer Infantry as it
was passing through Wilmington yester-
day.
Corporal Skeet'' was patrolling the
platform of the station when the Ten.
nessee boys pulled in and Skeet, though
small boy, takes great interest in mill
tary matters and examines closely any
company OF soldiers that may cross his
path and has yet to find company that
will come up to his own Company II.
The colored mascot is very black and
very small and in his corporaPs uniform
presents comical appearance.
The Tennessee soldiers stopped at the
railroad station while receiving coffee
and some of them espied Skeet They at
once decided to steal him and made a
grand rush for the corporal mascot He
tried to avoid them but it was useless fol
they soon carried him struggling, kick
ing, yelling, biting and scratching, tc
the train, and landed him on the plat
form of one of the coaches. When they
placed him on the car they released theil
hold and Skeet rolled off on the oppo
site side and was soon at a safe distance
from the soldiers, d frightened anc
trembling mascot.

Victory number two"
A suitable day for the game.
The crowd could have been larger.
The visitors captain had troubles OF
his own.
Prentiss and Mcdaniel made many a
long run.
That flying double pass worked like a
charm.
Brinton played his first game as cap
tain.
The line men were given plenty OF OPP
portunities to run with the ball. And
they did it.
The visitors team work showed lack
of practice.
Captain Wyckoff was in the game up
to his neck. He made quite lot OF fine
tackles.
When the visitors had the ball they
gained but once and the distance was
only one yard.
That Warren line is stone wall for
sure. Nothing but Dewey shell can go
through.
Smith showed that he will help the
team. He should run little lower
through.
If all the men follow in the foot steps
of their captain they will do all right.
Garrett fumbled quite little bit. But
barring this he played we'll.
Jeffries. one of the new men, played
guard in the first half and did we'll.
Lew Hance came down from Philadel-
phia to see his old team mates play.
Traynor was down the field on kicks
like a shot. This is a good trait. He also
tackled up to date.
ii Pete Rice umpires many more times
he will soon learn the locals to live up to
to the rules.
A team never lost the ball by living up
to the regulations. Rice should be COM
mended for his fine work.
The locals and visitors should send the
management of the grounds vote OF
thanks for the good condition of the
grounds. MT"
Devlin, the stocky little halfback,
played hard game. He deserves to be
on better team.
Mcdaniel is the hardest man on the
club to stop when running with the ball.
He knows how to dc it.
Bailey is a good, hard runner, and
nothing but stone wall will stop him.
"Pop" Green played his usual good
game at centre. He can play the posi-
ton with any OF them.
