NEW RICE LANDS.
To Be Opened Up Near Jennings, La.
 at Once.

Jennings, La, Sept. 12.-A deal has just been consummated here whereby tract Of 4,000 acres of rice land has been purchased of the A. l.. and '. con- pany by S. J. Johnson, local capital ist, and G. L. Elken. a prominent cap italist of Mayville, N. D.
 The land is virgin soil and lies fif- teen miles southwest of Jennings. It is perfect rice land and will add anoth CT to the large number of irrigating plants that cover this section of coun- try.
 The purchasers have commenced preliminary work on the tract. The land will be improved this fail, canals will be constructed and a large pump plant erected, all in ample time for early work next spring. The pumping plant will be made sufficiently large to irrigate not less than 5000 acres of rice and will be model in every respect. The farm will be operated on the teE- ant system.

that he would die of thirst on the des- ert, but it was learned from James Marian, for whom he worked, that he is well acquainted in the country to- ward which ne is healing and would know where to look for water. On account of the recent rain there is water at many tanks which are usually dry at this season of the year.
 The part of George Butts in the tragedy has brought about what must appear to him a fine instance u1 retri- Eutive justice. He is the person pri- marily responsible for Casey's death. He told Casey that Marian and Moudy had talked about him. Both denied the stories told by Butts, and there is no doubt that these stories were the products of that inventive young man, who was forced by Casey to go with him and confront Marian and Moudy on Sunday. He pretended to believe Butts, though It is not likely that he did so Butts may see, in Casey's sudden taking off a punishment for a severe beating Casey gave him not long ago. Casey was arrested for it, but was discharged, Butts having been in the meantime terrorized or notified.

THE CASEY INQUEST.
The Verdict Is Bare of Any Comment
 on the kilIing.'

The coroner's jury impaneled by Justice of the Peace Johnstone to in Guire into the manner of death of w. B. Casey was just an hour yesterday afternoon in hearing the testimony and bringing in a verdict. The latter was a perfunctory matter, simply stating that Casey came to his death at the hands of George Moudy.
 The witnesses examined were James Marler, his son Will, George Butts, Will Butts and Ben Anderson. Their testimony was practically without conflict and shed little new light upon the tragedy. The jury inquired close ly into the circumstances attending the firing of the two shots and from the testimony it was evident that the first shot penetrated Casey's right forearm and buried itself in his hip. The sec end shot came immediately after Casey had shifted his position and penetrated the heart. From the ac- counts given of the tragedy Sunday afternoon, this point had been in doubt
 The witnesses testified to the good character of Moudy. It is also learned that he is a. member in good standing of the Good Templars' lodge at Cart wright and tne only thing that could be said in any manner derogatOry concerning him was that he was high tempered. That he could be discreel OR occasions was shown, however, by one of the witnesses at the inquest, who stated that Moudy had refrained from attending a dance at Fowler's S ranch recently because he did not pwish to get into a quarrel with Casey. Another supplementary point in the vidence brought out was that on Sun day morning Casey struck James Mar Ter in the race and knocked him down It will be remembered that Casey started toward Marler with club ana the latter stood him at bay with a shovel Marler commanded Casey to throw down his club, which he did on condition that Marler should put down his shovel. Both parties did this, but Casey immediately hit Marler with his fist, knocking him down.
 Casey was buried at o'clock yes terday afternoon, the funeral services being held in the Catholic church. large number of friends and acquaint- ances of the family were present and joined the cortege that wended its way to the cemetery.

NEARLY A SHOOTING.
Dispute Over Mine Near WiCken-
 burg.

A murder was narrowly turned aside yesterday on a mining claim near Wickenburg About a week ago a Mexican named Marciano bonded a group of claims to the stockholders Of the Garcia mine, which was bought not long ago by London, Ont, com pany. An adverse claim to these prop critics was set up by Al St. Louis, formerly foreman at the Garcia mine. Yesterday morning St. Louis, accompanied by Andrew kozik, went on one of these claims, where a man was engaged in hauling off ore for the Garcia com Lany It does not appear that St. Louis had any hostile intention, but Marciano, who happened to be there, saw him. He was evidently in the habit of expecting him, for he was armed with a Winchester. KOzik and St. Louis had separated at this time, the latter going toward the man who was hauling ore. Kozik heard the ''click, click" of a Winchester, and turning saw Marciano, who without having seen Kozik, had stepped out af place of concealment a few feet away. The rife was leveled on St. LOUIS. kOZlk SpranS III lIOut ol Mdi ciano and told him not to shoot. He was so close to the Mexican that the latter could not turn the rife on him so he let it fall to the ground.
 While they were parleying, another Mexican standing farther up the hill called to Marciano in Spanish to look out for the American, meaning Kozik There was, however, no further dem- onstration and St. Louis and Kozik went away Both came to the city last night A warrant will be sworp out against Marciano today.

PURSUIT or MOUDY.
Officers Abandon inc Trail In inc
 White Tank Mountains.

George Moudy, the slayer Of w. B. Casey, is still at large. The time of his capture, as well as the fact of it, is very indefinite.
 Deputy Sheriff Henry George re- turned to the city yesterday forenoon. His horse had given out the evening before beyond the Agua Fria and he turned back. On the way he met Dep rty Sheriff Charlie Slankard and Con- stable Frank McClintock on the trail They were also without food or water, but were evidently not far behind Moudy, who had crossed the river about a mile above the Yuma road and was headed for the White Tank noun tains Mir George decided to return tc Phoenix and have a wagon with sup plies sent out after the posse. He himself found water at the Agua Fria at o'clock yesterday morning, having been without it for eighteen hours. He walked and led his horse the last ten miles before coming to water.
 As soon as possible after his arrival Deputy Sheriff H. M Davenport was sent out with a blackboard laden with supplies He met the officers a few miles west of town on their way back. Their horses had also given out. MT. OlfluhdIu Sdlu tu6y udu lOliOWeu lut trail into the White Tank mountains and at nightfall they believed that they were not far behind Moudy. Their horses were manifesting signs of suf- fcring and they left the trail in search of water, which they found after trav- cling long distance. They returned to the trail as soon as it was light enough to follow it, but the ride back to the trail had already jaded their horses, worn with the exertions of the day before. They saw the hopelessness of continuing the pursuit and turned back.
 Deputy Sheriff Orme, who returned ECrth with William Doheney on Sun day night, returned by train last night.
 There is sentiment among the of ficials than when Moudy is captured he ought to be well kicked and put ir to a lunauc asylum for running away and giving them so much trou- ble. His case of self defense is so clear that the chances are many to one that he would oe discharged on prelim- mary examination. The chief appre- hension felt at the sheriff's office was

Hut talking about photo graphs, let me show you Enid's." 1 Captain Lane detached a locket which dangled at the end of his watch chain. and, opening it, displayed a miniature of his lady love, which he offered for Iis friends inspection
 It was well that Gerard Lane had not full view of the others face just at that moment, he having turned his back half round in order to get bet ter light on the portrait. for, as his eyes rested on it, Medcalf started vio- 1 lently and turned ghastly pale-it was the pictured face of his ideal, the fel- low to which even now lay next his heart.
 She is very lovely he managed to stammer. as. with a trembling hand, had to lislen patiently while the cap tain decan1ed on the many virtues of 1 the original.
 He declined, however, his urgently pressed invitation to join his party alt the theater. on the plea of feeling tired after his travels, and it was with re- lief that he found himself at last in his own room.
 1 When week later, however, Cap tain Lane called on him to fulfill his promise on the wedding day, the temp tatlOn Cf seeing, nay, more, of speak i ing to-the girl just once was too much.
 i It would be difficult to say which was the more nervous, the bridegroom elect or his best man, as they waited in the church for the arrival of the bri dal party. Not once during the cere- mony that followed did Medcalf glance at the bride, though his pulses were thrilling at the sound of the sweet, clear voice that made the responses which bound her to Captain Lane. i It was in the vestry, after the sig natures had been duly entered in the register that some one whispered in his ear:
 Come, old fellow, don't you know your duty: Kiss the bride.''
 Then he raised his eyes, which rest ed for one brief moment on his ideal! The next moment he had grave!y bent and pressed his lips on the check of the dairty vision beside him. l There was a general litter as the girl gave vent to d little exclamation of dismaycd surprise.
 ''The lride, man. That's not the bride."
 {, Then. for the first time, Medcalf looked about, and his wandering gaze fell on tie apparition of the bride.

ENGINEERS NEEDED,
A Dangerous Deficiency In This Branch
of the Navy--An Increase
Wanted.

WAsHINaToNy March 15.--A danger.
ous deficiency in the engineer branch
of the navy has been brought to light
strikingly in the fact that it is scarcely
possible to secure a staff Of engineer
officers to bring back to the United
States any of the ships purchased
abroad. A short time ago, when orders
were given to rush the work of putting
the cruiser Chicago in shape for active
service, the engineer-in chief proposed
thas he would have the ship ready in
three months instead of six, as was es
timated. To do this he would work
forces day and night and to keep them
at the work he would place an engineer
officer aboard the ship to stay there day
and night. Passed Assistant Engineer
Dixon was chosen for the work, but he
had not been employed more than a
week before it was found necessary to
detach him in order to find an engineer
officer to act as q member of the board
appointed to examine auxiliary cruisers.
This state OF affairs has been brought
to the attention Of the house naval com.
mittee, but so far, it is feared, without
meeting that degree Of success which il
was hoped for in the shape of an amend.
ment increasing the number of engineer
officers in the service.
