now, according to latest reports, in
straitened circumstances in Chi

soon after his deialcatlon became
known. News now comes from Chi
huahua that Mrs Gillett has sold her
millinery store, on the profits Of
which the couple depended for a liv-
ing, and has returned, or is about to
return to Kansas. Grant Gillett has
had many ups and downs in Mexico
since he fled across the border OF the
southern republic. For time he
was employed at good wages to bale
hay, but seeing that there was money
in the hay business Gilett procured
some machines Of his own and COM
menced business on his own hook
then he lost his position. Since that
time he has been working in .the hay
business as a day laborer. Although
1t is claimed that he is now in desti.

that he intended to return to Kansas
City this spring, and it may be that

that direction by disposing Of her

PAT GROVE GAME FAILED.
Only Wanted go Put in q Can by a
Brick Pile.

Yesterday J. Z. Emig, Of the firm
Of Shane & Emig, received a two page
letter written in lead pencil signed "a
Desperate Man." 1t said that the
writer needed 500 and il Mr.. Emig
did not at noon put four IS bills in an
empty tomato can and drop it near a
brick pile on West Third street his
house would be burned, or blown up
by "dinimite" or be would lose his
life If it was done the money would
be returned next August. All sorts
Of threats were made as to what
would happen should he mention the
matter to anyone.
OF course Mr.. Emig turned the
matter over to the officers and a trap
was set for the desperate Man" by
putting can at the brick pile but up
to 9 o'clock last night no one ap.
peared and II was taken away.
The letter was a rambling one and
was evidently intended to be dis
guised hand writing. However,
there is q plain clue to the writer and
the postoflice authorities have detec.
tives working on the case. Other
letters are being compared and there
10 little doubt but that the writer
will be captured. Itiss penitsntiary

TOPEKA HAS A MOB.
Desperate Attempt at LyDching in
the Capital.

Special to the Reflector.
Topeka, Feb. 20.-The vigilance Of
officers was all that saved "Slick"
Slater from lynching by an infuriated
mob tonight. He will yet be lynch
ed il he can be found,
Slater is accused Of assaulting IL
year-old Lettie Gerberick Monday
evening, and was captured by Topeka
officers the next day in Carbondale.
The officers kept the fact Of the cap
ture quiet, and placed Slater in the
county Jail here.
This afternoon it became known
that be was here, and Immediately
the Santa Fe shop men, Of whom the
assaulted girls father, George Ger.
berick, is one, decided that he should
be lynched. They at once sent a
committee to watch the Jail, while
they quietly arranged lynching.
There was much sentiment in favor
Of burning Slater, but it is not prob
able this would have been done.
Bye o'clock there was an angry
mob Of 1000 men around the county
Jail demanding that the prisoner be
delivered to them. A brigade of
sturdy Santa Fe boilermakers, armed
with heavy sledge hammers, stood
ready to make short work Of the jail
in case the demands we're not grant
ed. Sheriff Cook succeeded in con-
the mob that Slater was not
in the jail and about midnight the
men dispersed.
