TWO ARRESTS YESTERDAY
dutch Fred" Sherman and Ziul Maiden
Heavily Fined Sherman Has Left

Chief White.

Fred Sherman, alias Dutch Fred,
and Ziul Maiden were arrested yester-
day morning by Chief of Police White
and officer Powers. charged with be-
dns "secretaries' and having no hon
est occupation by which to earn their
livelihood
Fred Sherman was given his choice
between paying a fine Of $50 and costs
or leaving the city for one year. The
man preferred to accept the latter
proposition and he left town yesterday
afternoon at o'clock for Butte. Sher-
man is very well known around the
city as Dutch Fred" He resided in
Meanwhile with his mistress and she
furnished him with money. He has
been arrested three times before, chars-
ed with the same offense. A story was
given to the police to the effect that
sherman had a fight with his mistress
Tuesday night. He went to her house
and demanded that she give him money.
She refused, saying that she needed it.
Upon her refusal Fred. it is alleged.
beat her hrutally. Yesterday morning
DIT was thought the woman would file
IA complaint against Sherman, but she
did not do so.
Maiden was fined $50, but unlike Sher-
man. he paid up. The police say that
Maiden is very notorious secretary"
and say that his actions lately have
fbeen very degrading. They allege that
Maiden has been living in Meanwhile
dor the past few months with two col
ored women who are said to be sis

Chief White when seen concerning
such people, said: We have decided
TO get rid of these fellows in this city.
They are of the worst class and natur-
ally. if they have no self respect. it is
hard to ask them to have respect for
others. When we arrested these two
we got pair that was hard to beat"
rOn his part, Judge Fitzgerald will
not go easy with them. as was shown
by the sentences which he yesterday
imposed upon Sherman and Maiden.

Zaute's Treasure.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
Just now the attention of Athenians
is centered at the island of Zante one
of the Ionian group. Some time ago
there was found in the archives of the
State library in Athens a parchment,
dated several hundred years ago, say
ing that when SuIeiman, in 1885, con-
quered Corfu. the inhabitants of Zante,
fearing that their island would share a
similar fate, buried all their treasures
and fled and that the Empress Sophia
did the same. The place where the en-
press treasure lay is described as
within the fortress under a large red
stone near the Temple of st. Luke"
In the year 1900 Pope Clement VIII.
made a search for the treasure, but the
result is unknown. In 1914 the English
attempted to find it, and excavations
were made, the large stone mentioned
in the ancient document found, but
then the search was interrupted Now
the document is in the hands of an
Italian, who, together with soma
Greeks, is searching for the treasure
The Greek government has granted a
concession for the work on condition
of receiving half of the treasure if 1t
be found. A patrol of soldiers guards
the place day and night The exca-
Vators met with a well, which was
easily pumped drv but instead of the
large red stone, they found at the bot
tom of the we'll two grottos, one run

HIGH EXPLOSIVE EFFECTS.
Instances of Enormous Power Displayed
by Modern Blasting Powder.

From Crozier's Magazine.
Among the many accidents which are
on record one of the most notable is
that of the explosion of 55 tons of blast
ing gelatine which was being unloaded
from a railway train at Braamfortein,
300 yards ives. of Johannesburg, in
South Africa, on Feb 10, 1856, ana
which was exploded by an end-on col
lision. The result of the explosion of
this enormous quantity of one of the
most powerful explosives used was to
produce crater 800 feet long, s. feet
wide, and 80 feet deep in soft ground;
or, taking cubic foot of earth as
weighing 100 pounds, the superficial ex-
plosive of these 55 tons of explosive
gelatine excavated about 10000 tons of
soft earth
Besides this there was a total DE
struction of all buildings within radi-
us of $50 yards, while from that dis
lance to go yards all the buildings
We're shattered. and the roofs We're bat
tered in up to about 1000 yards; but all
these buildings We're built chiefly of
corrugated iron and mud, and there
fore We're of a most unsubstantial char
acter.
On the other hand we have in xhe
United States the blowing up of the
Hudson River Palisades at Fort Lee
in 1885, when the explosion. of two
tons of dynamite placed in a chamber
in the rock, brought down 100000 tons
of rock; the blasting at the Dinorwic
quarries, Laberis, in the same year,
when two and one-half tons of ge1a-
tine dynamite placed in chambers n
the dixie overthrow $4,000 tons of rock,
and the destruction of the famous Tai
cen Mawr in 1895, when seven ton of
powder poured into two shafts dis
lodged a mass of rock computed to
weigh from 12T 200 to 900 tons
From this we find that the dynamite
of the interior at Fort Lee was over
40 times as efficient as the explosive
| gelatine on the surface at Johannesburg
while the powder at Talcen Mawr was
| over AZ times as efficient. Hence, it is
| not surprising that the superficial ex-
| plosion of the 300pound charges of gun
| cotton, thrown by the Nesuvius' guns
at Santiago during the late war be-
| tween the United States and Spain, pro-
duced no serious structural damage,
| and simply harassed the enemy by their
| frightful reports, which occurred at in
| frequent intervals and unexpected
| times.

STORY OF THE SHOOTING.
Ti1lie Carr Relates the Circumstances of
Last Saturtay's ARRAY.


In an interview last evening Title
Carr the woman who is now locked
up in the county Jail as a witness in
the Santi-Hamilton shooting ARRAY.
gave the alleged facts of the shooting
in the following statement:
'Santi and ] were sitting in the room,
and | told him something about some
other men. | do not remember what
] told him. He got mad and began
brandishing his gun. He said he would
shoot the first man who came into
the house. There was a knock at the
door and Santi went to see who was
there. A few minutes before that he
had given chase to a man named
Franco because he suspected that
loved him. When Santi got outside
Of the door, I heard two pistol shots,
That is all know of the case"
1t appears from a somewhat unrel-
able source, it is true. that Wider, an
other person who is being held as a
witness, had told Hamilton that Santi
had threatened to kill the Carr woman.
Wider and Hamilton had rooms in the
same house. Wider, while passing the
house, looked into the window and
saw Santi with his gun, and when he
told Hamilton of the fact that he had
seen Santl with the gun in his hand,
the latter decided to go to the house
and see if there was trouble, and it
was then he was shot.

About the Christmas Tree.

The Christmas tree is believed by anti
Quarians to be a relic of the Druidical
worship which once prevailed through
out central Europe. in France, Spain and
the British islands. The evergreen oak
was to the Druids a sacred tree. The
mstletoe, parasitic plant found on its
branches, was equally holy. The custom
of decorating small tree at Christmas
tide prevailed in Germany throughout the
middle ages being Il survival of the an
cient custom of setting up a tree in the
village at this season in honor OF the re-
turn of the sun from the south. and the
coming spring. In England the custom
passed into disuse but in 1912, on the first
birthday of the Prince of Wales, Prince
Albert. Il German, had a Christmas tree
at court, the nobility soon followed suit
and the practice became general.
