Washington Jones Arrested Oh
a Serious Charge.
IS ACCUSED OF BURGLARY
Jones Got Religion aud is Thought to
Have Secured Other Things
Without Paying For Them

Washington Jones is a colored man who
among other things has got religion. He
also got into Jail last night and is ac-
cused of getting things that belonged 10
other people. He will also get things IN
Jail that have been left by his predeces-
sors. He is also accused OF pelnS a
thinker and after thinking that other
peoples goods and chattels belong to him
thinks out a way of getting possession of
them. 1t is claimed hat his religious
convictions do not interfere seriously
with his thinking.
On Tuesday the home of Mrs. West on
Idaho alley was burglarized and all her
possessions We're tumbled about the
house. An inventory disclosed the fact
that 81 in money and an old pocket knife
were missing. While the loss was small
she deemed it her duty to report the affair
to the police. The sleuth ounds of law
made an investigation and made the
startling discovery that somebody had
West. When this fact was established
they went to work with a will and with a
keenness that would have put the Cyan
lQe OF mercury detectives OF new York
city to shame, traced sten by step with
unerring certainty certain tracks that had
been left in the mud. These tracks We're
made by a gigantic shoe and showed that
the burglar had effected an entrance at
the rear door and after plundering the
house made his exit from the front door.
These tracks We're clear and led to what
was formerly a woodshed in the alley but
which has recently been occupied by Mr..
Jones and lady.
Disgusting their faces with smiles of
satisfaction, Detectives Murphy and Ray
took turns watching for the return of
the proprietor and last night Rays vigil
was rewarded by the appearance of the
much expected Jones. After the arrest
Ray took his prisoner to the place where
the foot prints had been observed and
which had been preserved by a secret
process of the weather and upon the pen
atty of his displeasure compelled Jones to
place one foot in the mark. The fit was
perfect and the prisoner was marched to
Jail.
A search of the Jones premises did not
disclose anything of an discriminating
nature except a few suspender buttons
that have not yet been identified. The
knife was not there and neither was the
81. No charge was entered up against
the man but it is probable that he will be
examined as to his nationality as his lady
inadvertently remarked that he did not
care for chicken.

GERMANY SENDS
TWO MESSAGES

Washington, Jan. 21.-German Ambas-
sador Won Hollanben called on Hav at the
state department and presented two i'm
portant dispatches from the German gov
relating to the critical condition
of affairs iii Samoa. Following this an
extended conference was held between
Hay and the ambassador and then be-
tween Hay and British ambassador
Pauncefort. The dispatches
Gated by the German ambassador dealt
not only with the question of policy in
VOWED but are known to nave presented
in details the recent collision in Samoa
as viewed from a German standpoint.
Thcy differ IN many essential particulars
from the statements made heretofore.
1t was stated after the several confer
ences by a diplomat high in authority that
the latest aspects of the case were such
as to make a peaceful adjustment posi-
bic and even probable. \ strong impress
SION prevails in diplomatic quarters that
Germany would repudiate the action Of
her consul in Samoa if.indeed, she has not
already laid the foundation for this line of
acton. 1t was stated positively in author
native quarters that the United States
government had not up to moor today
made a protest. either alone or in coniunc-
ton with Great Britain.

HIS SIGNATURE.

An elderly man stepped into a big hotel
the other day, accompanied by his wife,
and asked for a room. When the polite
clerk gave him a pen and placed the reg
lister before him, he LOOKED visibly embar-
raised, but he took the pen and bent over
the book as though he had nerved him
self to some desperate task.
He started to write, and then stopped
and began to think. The clerk, Of course,
didn't know What the trouble was, or else
he would have volunteered his services.
After a painful pause the rurallst started
in to scratching some more.
After the eXpil alton of fully five min
utes, the farmer threw down his pen
with a sigh of relief, wiped the perspira-
ton from his brow, and rejoined his better
half, who had been waiting in the lobby
during the ordeal. The clerk was curious
to see a signature that required such an
unuSua length of time to execute. The
clerk is a solemn man, but he nearly went
off into a fit when he saw in big round
script this legend:

A Wan Answering His DeScrip-
ton Arrested
IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Sheriff Regain is NOtlfied--Fur!her
Particulars Asked For
BY Wire.

Sheriff Regain received a telegram from
the chief of police at Los Angeles, Cal,
today asking if Dan Sullivan, alias a
Lucy, was wanted here for the murder
of Patrick Sullivan in Silver Bow canyon.
AS the sheriff has spent both time and
money in trying to capture the alleged
murderer he lost nc time in wiring an
affirmative reply and asking for further
particulars. The message from the Cali
fornia official was short, but it's contents
indicated plainly that either the suspect
ed murderer or someone dangerously
close to him in appearance is under ar
rest.
If. the additional information asked for
by Sheriff Regain confirms the belief that
the real Sullivan has been captured an
officer will start after him as soon as ar
rangements for the trip can be made.
There is a large reward for his arrest
and conviction.

On taking the witness stand the first
thing Mr.. Almquist did was examine the

strong resemblance to Phillips was Walk

invitation was accepted. While Jogging

FIRE BOYS DRILL.
CHIEF FLANNERY TAKES THEM
OVER THE PRINCIPAL
BUILDINGS.

Chief Flannery took all the fire boys
out for a drill today and put them
through a course that greatly entertained
the crowds that assembled. They visited
nearly all the large buildings in town,
going up and returning by fire escapes.
They clambered from building to build
ing, and reminded one of porpoiscs at
sea as they tumbled over dividing walls.
The crowds shouted gleefully, but the
boys steadily followed the lead of their
chief. 1t was ~exhausting work for the
men, but the chief does not intend to let
them get rusty in the work just because
there are not a sufficient number of fires
to keep them properly limbered up.
Yesterday afternoon a test was made
of the hydrant by the side of the Hen
messy block. The pressure at the plug
was 80 pounds, and on top of the building,
a height of about 10 feet, the pressure
was 80 pounds.

Visits are usually made for informal

of these objects in view. California offers
unparalleled attractions.
1t is a region Of wonders. From the
time one enters the state until he leaves

something to learn. something to eniOv.
me ilora IS full of interest even to the
casual Observer. From the mammOt
Sequoias, 40 feet in circumference and 400
feet high, down to the beautiful Eunanas
with their rOse-thrOat | blossoms, often
within an inch of the 2rGund. there is not
a link in the chain that will not well re-
pay a careful examination. Lichens,
ferns and cacti abound in wonderful
forms. each adapted to its peculiar en-
Vironment. There is no dearth of ami
mai life, especially of the smaller forms.
In no part Of the continent are the but
tcfflleS and beetles more brilliant. nor the
smaller representatives of the Saurians
more strange and abundant. Birds of
the same species differ in plumage and
habitS from their eastern cOngenerS. and
or the mammalia there is a wide repre-
SentatiOn.
That the state is rich in minerals has
long been known, but the variety found
IS a source OF constant surprise. On the
sea beach all forms of ocen life may be
studied; beautiful and delicate algea.
ana shells in infinite varieay and of re-
markable brilliancy are to be had for the
gathering. California is indeed a verita-
bic paradise for the collector in any line
Of natural history.
Aside from the more noted excursions,
to the Yosemite, to the Geysers, to Mount
Hamilton, to Mount Shasta Co whose
summit, nearly five miles above sea-level
and covered with ternal snow, all who
ave the physical strength should climb.
to the Big Trees (Where the strange snow
plant Sarcodes ~sanguinea may be found
pushing its scarlet tip up through the
SnoW), there are hundreds of minor ey-
curslons. every one of which will repay
fold the expense and trouble of the
trip.
Six months or a year spent in California
sightseeing will give more health, more
and bring one nearer the great
heart of nature than the same amount
of time spent in any other part of the
world.
And it may well be borne in mind that
during the whole time, while nature may
be seen in al its wildness, whenever peo-
pie are met, they will be found quiet.
