Jerks, and that IL will stand a strain

Appliance should be more than twenty
four times stronger than the pulling
power of the engine.
He testified that the lack of unison
in two men starting one train tends to
danger; that there are seven men on q
double header train and only FIVE On a
single header: that the men are out on
he road longer with @ double header
and become exhausted. He said that
much difficulty is experienced in dis
covering a car off the track in the ope-
ration OF double-headers.
Mr.. Lee, of the Santa Fee, next ex-
amined the witness who testified that
in trains breaking in two the air sets
the brake itself, if the break occurs
between cars having air brakes: that
an engineer can feel the air come On
in such an instance. He acknowledged
that on two single-hesder trains ten
men were exposed to danger, while
seven are employed In the operation of
a double-hesder. He said that 1t is
almost impossible for the engineer in
the first engine to see the sig nal OF
trainmen at times on account of the
smoke and steam escaping from the
second engine. In reference to the
train that broke twenty-seven times In
going 90 miles he said 1t had been stat
ed to him that this train broke in more
places than one; that it was not the
same break that continually gave
trouble. His train was following the
one in question.

Weather Bureau.

A Washington dispatch says: Chief
Willis Moore, of the weather bureau,
has issued an order prohibiting per-
sons connected with the service from
smoking cigarettes during Office hours,
and stating further that those who
smoked cigarettes at any time would
be mentioned in the confidential re-
ports which are made quarterly to him
by chiefs of the several Offices and
divisions throughout the entire service.
Chief Moore said today:
THE order was issued after careful
consideration and a thorough investi-
cation of the evils resulting from
cigarette smoking. It will stand. In
this service we are compelled to
maintain a very strict discipline, in
order to secure satisfactory service.
Some of our men who are regarded as
the most thorough and competent,
doing every detail of their work with
the utmost 'promptness and accuracy,
gradually became careless and lax.
II sent inspectors to investigate, and
in q number of cases 1t was found to

wish to assume any authority what
ever over any privilege which the
employees of the service should have,
but, as public servant, L feel that is
is my duty to correct any evil that
may exist even If in attempting to
make this claim ] am overstepping my
authority. The order applies to the
entire force of the bureau throughout
the entire service. Cigarette smoking
must cease. Cigars and pipes are not
barred

ARTESIAN WELL AT CAPTAIN
BIG Flow OF Water Struck At the
New Mountain ToWn-A Fine
Thing For Its Future.

A special from CAPTAIN this morning
says that q flow of artesian water with
seemingly an unlimited supply has
been struck there.
The news was both unexpected and
we'll received at the offices of the Ell
Paso & Northeastern in this city.
Said A. J. King, the cashier, this
morning:
"This flow was struck at a depth of
$50 feet and was wholly unexpected.
Men employed by the fuel company
have been at work continuously with a
diamond drill, on verifcation holes, as
they are called, attempting to deter
mine the extent of the coal beds and
veins. It was while drilling in No.
entry On one of these holes that the
water was unexpectedly struck.
"Of course, there has been no analy-
sis as yet, but we are all sure that the
water from this depth will be of I'M
usual purity. The only thing lack
ing heretofore at CAPTAIN has been
good water, and now this seems as
sured for the town"
This news is especially gratifying to
Ell Psso, because 1t shows the existence
of flow Of artesian water within
reasonable distance of the city and en-
courages the belief that it may extend
beneath the city.

Persons living in a great many of the

he, which is a county seat. The court
house is in n large square, around which
a new iron fence had been lately built.
There is no sidewalk around the square,
and to prevent persons hitching their
horses there were erected large signs on
all sides reading, ANY Person Hitching a
Horse to This Fence Will Be Fined SIC
Without Trial The day after got there

or Court day Nearly every farmer in

CASSI AT LIBERTY
Romantic Story OF Love And Ad-
venture

Emil Csssi, formerly we'll known
resident of Bisbee, and later of Jerome,
who enlisted in company @ of the rough
riders in the Cuban war, was released
from Jail in Havana, Cuba, the other
DAY by Governor General Wood, says
years sentence for having killed lieu
tenant of the Cuban army last March.
At the time the prisoner wac lieuten-
ant of police and the shooting occurred
during the progress of fight in a
prominent hotel over the distribution OF
American money among the Cuban vet
Grams. The lieuteuantof police was born
in Italy, but was an American citizen.
Feeling ran high against him among
the Cubans, and he was threatened
with lynching.
A wealthy Cuban girl became infat-
uated with him and married him in
jail about q month after his imprison-
ment. She had given away fortune
to the revOlutiopists during the var,
and after the marriage appealed to
General Gomez to use his infue nee for
her husband.
Gomez refused, because the prisoner
spent another fortune striving to gain
her husbands release, She pleaded
with Governor General Wood, Cover
nor Roosevelt, President Mckinley
and many of the military authorities
here. Nothing daunted her. To gain her
purpose she offered jailers large brides
until orders we're issued denying her
entrance to the prison.
She disclosed to the military auth or
tiles last summer a plot of Cubans to
blow up the Tacoa theater and an
other municipal building in Santa
Clara OF the night of the Fourth of
July. The Information caused much
alarm in military circles and for her
conduct her husbands pardon was
promised If the conspirators were
arrested.
Havana was put under military
guard that night aud regiment OF
soldiers watched the building in
Santa Clara. An attempt was made
att both places exactly according to
details furnished by the Cuban woman.
The men were caught in the act Of
placing packages OF dynamite under
the Tacon theater.
This occurrence was looked upon at
first as an indication of a general up
rising among Cubans. An examine
tion of the arrested parties disclosed
in Santa Clara the same condi tions.
Since General Wood g arrival he as
taken an interest in the case and. con-
sidering the prisoners heroism at
Santiago. he granted the pardon. The
man left Havana secretly after his
release, and will probably come to this
country with his wife Immediately as
he fears death at the hands of the
Cubans.
