A ROBBER KILLED
Will Cravens' Unsuccessful Attempt
 to Hold Up Naco Saloon.

Lact Tuesday morning about. 9 o'clock, Deel < Co.'S saloon in Naco was the scene of a tragic incident that itabIe fate of the robber and the stern performance Of fis dangerous and un- pleasant duty by brave officer. The Bisbee Review gives the following story of the incident:
 A number of people were in the sa- loon when two men. masked and armed. entered from the back. The onlookers were ordered to throw their hands up and get in line. Their com mand was obeyed with one or two ex- captions, one being Livvy Robinson Livvy jumped behind the bar and grabbed a pistol, an empty one as it turned out. and snapped it several times ct the bandit who was on guard. Finding the weapon useless he got be- hind the bar. Ore of the robbers went to the roulette table and commenced putting the money in sack.
 While this was being done, :. Ross. the bartender, crept behind the men who were lined up. E. P. Els, the deputy sheriff and deputy consta ble. had just stepped into the room, and was for the moment compelled to line up. But the bartender. E;oss. had se cured the sawed-off shotgun and was crawling back. He gave the shotgun. which was loaded with buckshot, to Deputy Constable Els. who stepped forward and fired at the man robbing the roulette table. The robber gave q single cry of pain and fell dead, shot through the heart.
 His partner turned and ran flor the door. Els aimed at him. but man sat in the way at the lunch counter. and she officer had to aim at the left. The fugitive half turned around and

cried out. so it appeared he was hit. However. he got off.
 Justice Greaves was called and a coroner's jury summoned Evidence showed the facts of the hold-up. and MT. Deel. who gave evidence. thought She dead robber was a man he knew ,yen a Stafford. This opinion was also agreed in by another witness. but af- terwards F. ACord, who had arrived in town last evening. positively identi fled the rlan as Will Cravens, q cow boy of Dog Springs, N. M. He de scribed his boots and clothes. Acord had worked with him at Dog Springs. The deceased is well connected and his people are reported wealthy.
 Several shots were fired at the re- treating robbeF by c. $. Crockett. but without apparent effect. The action Of Ross and Livvy Robinson was ccr- tainly most Ilucky.
 The jury returned q verdict of Death oy gunshot wounds at the hands of Officer F. P. Els in the per formance of his duty. The large crowd assembled to hear the reading of the verdict gave MT. Fills three rousing cheers and thanked him for his prompt and brave conduct.
 Constable Hudspeth was on the scene at once on hearing the shots fired, anG took charge of the proceedings, form ing posse which left in pursuit cf the escaped rcbber.
 The horse of the dead Tua:1 was foIn1 and pronounced q fine. well-trained animal. Winchester rifle. sack of food and other necessaries were at tached to the saddle. The man had on blue mask with eye-noIes and a long bottom part. He was tall, well built man. young. with red hair and moustache.

BeRutifyinE u Capital.
NrOm the Mexican Herald


1t is proposed to erect at Washington
statue to Alexander r. Shepherd, whom
Mexico may now claim as an adopted citi-
zen. 1t was this remarkable man, the in
carnation of public spirit and intelligently
directed energy, who transformed the city
of Washington from a sprawling and I'M
kempt village into one of the great capitals
of the world. a city of parks and splendid
avenues, and made 1t ready to be what it
is today. the great winter capital of Ameri-
can society, a city Of elegant and profusc
hospitality.
And Mr.. Shepherd, who had the genius to
see what Washington needed, and the cour-
age to act, was assaied on every hand. The
press, in spirit of small and picayune crit
lcism. barked at his heels for years; con-
gressmen distrusted him; he was called a
boss. and all sorts of direful predictions
were made regarding the eventual fiasco Of
this American Baron Hausmann Jobbery
and favorttfsm were among the milder
charges brought against the creator of
modern Washington.
But time. though slow. is the great vindi-
Gator: no mans name Is more heartily ap-
plauded in Washington today than that of
Governor Shepherd. And the suggestion
that statue of the modernizer Of the cap
ital be erected as a fitting centennial me-
mortal Is received respectfully by the press
of the city.
Our public men, who have conceived great
plans for emphasizing and improving li,e
City of Mexico, may we'll take courage from
the story of Governor Shepherds work in
the capital Of the neighboring republic It
will take money and grit and plenty of
courage to bring this city up to the level of
the great capitals of the world BIZ. it can
be done, and. with the aid OF the federal
government, this city can be made one of
the handsomest on the globe.

April 30. 1900 up to December Is, 1900.
901 criminal prosecutions have been brought
by the dairy and food commissioner against
oleomargarine dealers in the various coun-
ties OF the state. Eighty-seven of these
cases have been terminated and S14 are
still pending and undisposed OF.
The agents and attorneys representing
the dairy and food commissioner have made
every effort to obtain trial Of these cases.
They must await the disposition of jail
cases and the prior disposal of other cases
deemed more important by the district at.
torneys, who control the order of trial OF
cases in the criminal courts.
There are 500 cases awaiting trial in the
court of quarter sessions of Allegheny coun-
ty, three in Beaver eight in Blair. twelve
in Cambria, three in Clearfield, one in Dau-
phin, two in Delaware, four in Erie, fifteen
in Luzerne, six in Lawrence, one in Mer-
Ger, one in Montgomery. two in Northum-
berland 106 in Philadelphia. three in Schuyl-
kill, one in Venango and forty-seven in
WeStmoreland
Another difficulty in bringing these cases
to trial is the tendency of the Mccain
case, which has been appealed from the
superior court to the supreme court of the
state to test the constitutionality of the
color clause. In Allegheny, Cambria and
Westmoreland counties the courts refuse
til the Mccain case is decided. In West
moreland county We have a number OF
cases where the defendants have pleaded
guilty but the courts refuse to sentence
until a decision on the color clause is
handed down in the Mccain case.
"A number Of criminal prosecutions are
pending against the same individual IT
many instances. l am satisfied that the
penalty is insufficient to properly enforce
the law. Instead of a fine of 800 for the
first offense it should not be less than $500.
and there should also be Imprisonment OF
at least sixty days For the second offense
the fine and Imprisonment should be in
creased, and l recommend that the law be
amended in this particular.
MY attention has also been called by the
secretary of agriculture to the New York
law, which authorizes the granting of in
functions by the courts restraining and en-
Joining persons from selling oleomargarine
colored like butter. This authority would
be a great aid to the department. and oul
law ought to be amended, giving like au-
thority in this respect"
