A BIG CAPTURE.

Marshal McMlllin Secures the Ar

Last night q man with a wife and
three children arrived in the city on
the train from FL Paso. He went to

McMillin at once spotted him to be
Eckam, alias Mackay, the man who is
wanted in Topeka, Kansas, on the
charge of embezzling S45, 600 from the
United States Indian agency at Topeka
about eighteen months ago.
Marshal McMillin did not feel justif-
ed In arresting him on his own sus-
picion that he was the man, so he tele-
graphed the authorities at Topeka the
facts in the matter and requested q
prompt reply, for the reason that he
had learned at the hotel that Mackey
would leave for Los Angeles on the
flyer this morning.
When the flyer departed for the west
he had received no word from Topeka,
so he did not interfere with Mackey
not been gone over three minutes
when message was delivered to him
from II. J. Bonet, the assistant United
States attorney at Topeka, saying that
Eckam, alias Mackey, was wanted
there badly; that he had been indicted
in the United States district court and
to arrest him at once IL possible under
the fugitive law and hold him until the
necessary papers reached him by mail
Marshall McMfllin then teleRraphed
the officers in Gallup to arrest Mackey
and bring him to this city tonight.
This afternoon the marshal received
q telegram from ]. A. Strauss. chief of
police of Topeka, asking him to arrest
Mackey and hold him until he arrived
Mackey told some people at the hotel
that he had spent the past eighteen
months in Mexico and that he was now
on his way to Los Angeles, where he
would leave his family and he himself
go on to South America.---Albuqu

Last night q colored woman made q
whole lot of excitement on the last
Sherman train from that city to Deni-
son. She suspected that her hue band
was giving her the slip from Sherman,
and was coming to Denison. She went
to the train and demanded her liege
lord. AS the trainmen did not have
any colored husbands TO spare, they.
of course, refused to give up any. Con-
ductor Watson was on the run and he
politely informed the woman that he
did not have any man that she wanted.

fire-proof and cannot be injured. l am
a switchman myself and 1T makes me

do their work in such a reckless man
ner. When / was working 10 the

sessed great deal of activity

He sSid he vas careful enough
and not TO mind him. 1
said AL right, aod let him
have his own way. One day he got
his hand mashed between the bumpers
and then again told him to be care
full. He went to the doctor and had his
hand dressed and came back TO work.
l told him that he was in no condition
to work, but he insisted that he was and
Ilet him go. 1t was not ten minutes
after that until he WAS corpse
In attempting 20 uncouple
some cars he fell and was
msngled in an awful manner.
He would not listen to me
on any occasion and l knew IL was on
ly matter of time until he would be
killed and l was expecting it every
day. This is only one instance but i
could tell OF a dozen others equally as
bad. We get TOO reckless entirely and
l am surprised that more of US are not
in the hospital or killed."

Congress to Be Urged to Give Us
the English System.

When congress meets in December
there will be larger number of busi.
ness men in Washington from the west
than usual, says the Kansas City JOurn-
al, 10 urge the passage of legislation
affecting the commercial interests oil
the country. The fight TO be made to
place the express companies under the
jurisdiction OF the interstate commerce
CON omission, and also the establishment
of the parcel post system, are Two I'M
portrait matters to be urged by the
business men. Commissioner Trickett,
of the Kansas City TRANSFORMATION
bureM, will be one of those to go to
Washington at the opening of congress.
IL is understood that A. j. Vsnlaud-
ingham OF the ST. Louis traffic bureau
will be present also.
Mr.. Trickett has received hundreds
OF letters during the past few days
from all over the country about the
parcel post system. When in st. Louis
recently q newspaper dispatch Ras
sent out stating that he was there tC
inaugurate the effort to establish this
post. Business men from every sec
ton have been writing him about 1t,
and they invariably are favorable to
the movement
In the recent circular letter sent out
to commercial organizations urging
them TO petition congress- to establish
the parcel post system, Mr.. Trickett
says:
1.-THE recent controversy with ex-
press companies regarding the war re-
venue tax has emphasized the neces-
sity also of more liberal management
by the postcfsce department for do
mestic parcels post. Parcels post rates
in Great Britain are 3 pence-6 cents
for tue first pound, and L penny
cents-for each additional pound up to
IL pounds, which is the weight limit,
making the cost of transmitting q
package Of IL pounds, only 26 cents.
In this country the rate is one cent per
ounce up to the ridiculously low
weigh limit OF four pounds, whereas
the express rate is from % cents up
ward. AT the weight limit of IL
pounds, il will cost in this country TO
send package by parcels post Sl.16,
while in Great Britain the cost would
be only 20 cents; or in 9th r. words,
one can send IL pounds any place in
Great Britain for ] cent more than
express companies in the United States
charge. say for 4-pound package any
distance from 10 TO 80 miles"

BY VICIOUS Ours
Mrs. II. A. Mcmillan the Victim
of a Mad Attack.
WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED
Worthless Brutes Spring Upon Her and
Sink Thei Fangs in Her Flesh.
The Dog Nuisance Must Be
Abated at Once.

The cur dog has again come to the
front, and this time in a very serious
way. Two dogs, one a mastiff and
another a bull dog, on Thursday even
ing attacked Mrs. II. A. Mcmillan at
the corner of Washington and Fifth
streets and seriously injured her.
Mrs. Mcmillan was walking along
the street when the bulldog began to
growl and the mastiff Joined in. The
two vicious brutes then sprang upon
Mrs. Mcmillan. n sank their fanss
into her flesh time after time, until
the lady was about to faint from pain
and fright. A couple of men,
by the screams of the woman, rushed
to the scene and succeeded In beating
the brutes off. Mrs Mcmillan was re-
moved to her home, where surgical at
tendance was at once summoned. Some
of the wounds received from the teeth
of the dogs are of a most alarming
character. Mrs. Mcmillan when re-
moved to her home. was suffering
greatly both from the wounds and from
the shock. Yesterday she was reported
to be resting quietly.
The police were notified or the az
fair and an officer was detailed to hunt
up the dogs and kill them. The OFF,
Ger was able to find only one of the
dogs, the mastiff, the bulldog having
evidently been hidden away. The dogs
are said to have belonged TO w. G..
Jones and Tim O'Dowd, residents of
the n~eighborhood where the attack oc-
CURED.
This is the second serious accident
resulting from vicious dogs running
loose in the street. The other acci-
dent result in the victims death. 1t
was the ease where James Lobb, while
riding down East Park avenue, was
thrown from his horse, which had been
frightened by a dog Lobb fell upon
his head. and died from his injuries
a few days later. Every day half a
dozen reports of attacks by ours upon
children come in. During the races a
big dog attacked ? little child on the
west side and if ii had not been for the
assistance Of some men, probably
would have killed her.
The affair of Thursday evening has
aroused a good lea of Indignation. and
people are beginning to inquire whose
business II is to protect citizens from
vicious dogs, and what the city main
tains a pound for. Attention has been
called to the dog nuisance in these col
umns half a dozen times, and last
spring the authorities made a general
cleanup of the dogs. For a while after
the cleanup there was not one case of
accident from dogs reported, but as
soon as the police let up the dogs began
to multiply again and there are now
as many If not more than there ever
were.
The authorities will have to abate
the dog nuisance and do il at once, or
other steps must be taken to protect
the lives of neople from the ours.
