TEXAS PREACHER TO HANG.
Rev. 6. e. Mo-rlson's Death SEN
tenCe Affirmed.

A special dispatch to the Globe De-
mocrat from Austin, May 4, says: The
court of criminal appeals here today
affirmed the death sentence OF Rev.
George E. Morrison who murdered
his wife few mouths ago at Panhan-
die City, Tex, by strychninne poison.
This is one of the most remarkable
| murder cases in the criminal annals OF
Texas. Rev. Morrison was born and
reared in Massachusetts, and his father
| is presiding elder OF the Methodist
church in California. The condemned
man lived for some time in that state
and was married there to the woman
he afterwards poisoned. They removed
TO Panhandle City about four years
ago, and Rev. Morrison was placed in
| charge of the Methodist congregation.
He was held in high esteem by the
people, and his domestic life was ap-
psrently happy.
A year or more ago he went to Kan
sas City to undergo medical treatment.
While there he met q young lady who
was one of his schoolmates in his boy
hood days, and to whom he had been
engaged before leaving his Mas
sachusetts home. The spark Of love
was rekindled in the breast of the
the woman of his wife in Texas, he
began paying her ardent attention.
He told her that he WAS wealthy
cattleman and had large ranch in
Texas. He returned to his wife in
Panhandle City in the course of q
week and proceeded to carry on q cor
respondence with his sweetheart,
mailing his letters from a nearby
town.
Il is alleged in the statement of facts
in the case that the convicted man
carefully planned the murder. He
waited I'LL the physicians in the town
were temporarily absent, and then ad-
ministered the fatal drug. Immediate
ly after the funeral Morrison left for
Kansas City. Suspicious were aroused
and the body was disinterred and an
analysis of the stomach revealed that
death was due to strychnine poison.
Morrison heard of the proceedings and
fled from Kansas City. He was pur-
sued through several western states
ar Mexico and finally traced to Kan
sas City, where his arrest was made.
On his person were found forged deeds
to large ranch properties in Texas
which he had used to make his intend
ed in Kansas City believe he was
man of wealth.
When his trial came off the mans
father wrote to the court officials de-
clining to aid his son, for the expressed
reason that he believed him guilty, as
charged.
The date of the hanging will be set
when the criminal court mandate
reaches the trial court.

TOWNSHIP in the mountains. the erec-
ton of modern and expensive ma
chinery, the installing of comPre ssed
air plants and power drills, and con-
struction of trsmways to handle ore,
show confidence in the mineral wealth
of the camp.
Now, the ideal mining proposition ls
one which will pay expenses from the
start and this has been found to be the
case with the several mines that have
been systematically worked, and nearly
every prospect, and there are many,
on which regular assessment work has
been done, shows good ore on it's dump.
One predominating feature about this
camp is the great number OF iron out
groupings. They occur on every peak
and slope and great areas are covsred
with iron float scattered from immense
blowouts found about the hills every
where.
Persons familiar with the country
about Dos Cabezas find here general
resem lance both in regard to the lay
of the land as we'll as the country rock
and quality of ore obtained. Copper
deposits are very numerous about ia
rilIa and show features similar to those
of the Lake Superior copper region,
and in some respects to the great cop
per mining districts of North Dakota
and of Arizona. In short, the geOlo-
gicsl features of the Jarilla Mountain
point to great mineral bearing posi-
bilities, as the mineral producing
conditions seem to have been present
during the formation. ~.
No mining region of similar extent
has more eruptive dykes, and por-
phyry and limestone contacts, garnet
quartzite lodges, auriferous-iron seams
and immense copper showings than the
Jarilla mountains, and these are not
confined to one locality, but are scatter
ed over an area fifteen miles long and
five miles wide In fact there are few
localities where copper is not found. In
my next letter [ will give you q more
full account of the mineralogy OF the
district as shown in the present work.

JARILLA MINING CAMP

Special Correspondence of the HERALD.
JARILLA. May $50 much has been
said and written about this camp re-
Gently of the good finds made there and
the many car loads of ore shipped from
there, that a more complete descrip-
tion of the general characteristics of
the camp might prove interesting to
your readers.
The Jarilla camp comprises a group
of comparatively low mountains,
situated about fifty miles north easter
ly from Ell Paso on a short branch line
of the White Oaks route. There are
in all about 500 to 600 people in the
camp, many employed in regular
mining while others are prospecting.
AS is we'll known to old settlers, the re-
gion has been prOspected more or less
for quarter of century, and at one
time it was believed to be very rich
supplies aud water to the place how
ever made mining at e. profit i'm
practicable. The completion of the
White Oaks route has however chang
ed all this, and Jarilla is now one OF
the @est appointed camps in New Mex
leo.
Some of the mining claims located
here are now fifteen years old and sew
eral of them are now in active opera
tion. In 1896 the camp became more
favorably known for its gold and cop
per producing cspabilities,and on these
lines it is now being thoroughly pros
pected. The showings made in the
several hundred claims, prospects, sand
workings have brought in new pros
pectors, and the investment of con-
capital for purposes of de-
velopment. The building of five mile
