Daniel Hesser was charged before Justice
Shoemaker last night with larceny as bailee.
The suit was instituted by Richard Guinan
of Mahanoy City, who alleged that he sold
Hesser furniture, carpets and stove on the
installment plan. One OF the clauses of the
agreement stated that the articles were only
leased until paid for and that they were not
to be moved from the house in which they
were installed without Guinan' consent The
latter learned that Hesser had sold some
furniture and when he called at the house he
could not find his goods, hence the arrest.
Hesser denied that he had sold any of the
goods that they were at Nuremburg and he
was willing to return them. He was put
under $500 bail.

Skaters Luck.

Major General Shafter was never {
captain or a major, although he en-
listed in the ranks and worked up. He
jumped from the position of Lieutenant
in the Michigan volunteers to lieuten
ant colonel in the regulars, and THU
rapid promotion WAS due entirely to
clerical error.
'Shafter's luck" is much talked O
in the army today, and his selection az
leader of the first expedition into Cuba
is considered merely in line with hi:
first remarkable promotion.
AS everybody knows, Shafter was q
farmer boy in Michigan when he en-.
listed at the beginning of the civil war
AT the close of hostilities he was {
first lieutenant. The army was being
cut down to a peace footing, and the
woods were full of colonies and majors
Shafter hoped for a transfer to the reg.
ulars, and was promised commission
as first lieutenant.
In writing the commission, however
a.clerk in the adjutsns generals Office
wrote Northumberland instead Of
lieutenant, and the com mission was
signed by President Lincoln with q big
batch of others and the mistake was
not noticed.
Men over whose heads Lieutenant
Shafter had been promoted raised 8
complaint, but in the turmoil following
assassination of President Lincoln and
the impeachment proceedings against
President Johnson, the matter was
dropped.-kansas City World.

OF all the wyLrships that have been

welcomed no me, and today the officers
and laekies of the stsnch bat,leship are
the center of New York's admiration.
They deserve all the applause
that can be given To them. The
snip, the captain and the sailormeu
were cheered in turn yesterday when
they arrived at the hayward. The
progress OF the big vessel up the bay
was trtumphsl voyage, and was IN ade
known To the Inhabitants of four
ooroughs by the footing of inuumer-
able whistles and the booming of guns.
IL was big day for the Texas, and il
must have brought TO mind with pecul-
lar satisfaction Co her officers the for
mer distrust in which her sea-going
and lighting qualities were held.

until the damage inflicted by the fir
Ing OF the Spanish guns and of her

Then she will sail forth again to win
glory for the American cause IL 10
seldom that naval experts have been
mlsled To greater extent in their
Judgment than they were in regard to
this battleship before her final test.
A series OF unfortunate accidents caus-
ed the gravest sort of criticism, and
Tor months IL was generally believed
that the vessel was a failure.
Her glorious fight with the Spanish
on Santiago served double purpose.

The New CitV Hall.

A great deal of interest is being dis
played among the architects of FL Paso
in the drawing of the plans for the
new city hall building which is to be
built on the triangular piece of ground
in front of the court house.
Up to the present time four of the
principal architects of the city are
working as hard as they can to have
the plans and all the specifications
finished by the 18th, as that is the
night of the council meeting.
The call for the plans stated that
they must be in by the fifteenth but IL
was found impossible to have them.dope
by that time as there is so much work
to be done. AS the council meets on the
eighteenth the plans and specifications
will be examined at that meeting.
There are as many different designs
as there will be bidders. Some are on
the style of the old mission buildings of
California, some are of more modern
architecture, such as is used in the east
at the present day, and one of the plans
call for building of English plans, so
the council will really have hard
time to decide which will be the best
one to eccept.
The contesting architects in the bid
ding will be. Ed. w. .Kneezell. R.C
Bell, h. Kraus, and Maydwell and Nc

work.

hide and animal inspector along the
line is giving entire satisfaction to all

Mr.. Greig says that there is q world
of money in it to some enterprising
citizen to go up in the lower end OF
New Mexico and go to cutting hay. The
grass is there just waiting for some
man to come along, cut it and convert
it into gold. Around Turquoise station
there are tons of that good black gram
ma grass which makes the best of baled
hay, and if some one from Ell PasO
would go up there and get interested
in the matter there would be good
money in it to him. Hay of that kind
at present is worth SO per ton and the
cost of cutting and hauling would be
small

Impromptu Concert Last Night

The people who attended the concert
in the plaza last night were treated to
some OF the best music ever given in Ell
Paso.
1t was learned last night that the
First artillery band of the Mexican
army would arrive on the Central
train, and at once steps were taken to
have the band give a concert in the
plaza. From half past nine to eleven
they played in the park. rendering in
fine style both Mexican and other fav-
orite pieces.
The band, fully sympathizing with
the feelings of the people, gave a med
ley of American national airs. and
were enthusiastically cheered.
One of the most enjoyed features OF
the concert was the piccolo solo. The
player is certainly an artist, and his
work brought forth rounds of ap-
plause. His name is Manuel ROsas.
The band, which is the most famous
in the Mexican army, is under the
charge and direction of Senior Ricardo
Pacheco, and is on it's way to the Omaha
exposition, where it will play for the
coming six weeks. The band left today
on the Texas and Pacific for Omaha.
