ON THE BACK TRACK
MT Wilson Inspecting the Territorial
 Jail System

William Wilson. colore1. was brought in from Prescott yesterday morning in irons. MT. Wilson came to this city about a couple of months ago, and represented himself to be capitalist temporarily out of funds In proof of his wealth he exhibited cer- tifcate of deposit, which appeared to have been issued to him by a Denver bank. His possession of this document enabled him 10 borrow small sums of money from q half dozen colored peo pie, who subsequently, discovered that the certificate of deposit represented nothing but MT. Wilson's skill with the pen. It was d mere work of art. and was of no commercial value what ever.
 By this time though MT Wilson had gone hence. nobody knew where. He was later heard Of at Prescott where he was working the certificate of de- Dosit for all it was worth. and q great deal more. He left Prescott as mys- teriously as he had gone from Phoenix. and soon after that wall went up from the colored population of Je- rome. Mir Wilson had been there. He was finally overtaken at Ash Fork, brough back to Prescott and tried and sentenced to term in the county jail In the meantime a complaint had been sworn out by Henry Davis, whom Wilson had defrauded to the e.1- tent of s1.5O.
 Mir. Wilson's engagement expired at Prescott on Wednesday. and Deputy Sheriff Young. who had business in this city yesterday. brought him down. He was taken before Justice Burnett yesterday and convicted with great promptness. There was. in fact, no sort of a defense. Wilson was sen fenced to sixty days in the county jail. He received his doom with apparent joy. ''Thankee. jedge.'' said he.

own earnings for work done outside OF
her home and cannot collect damages

HEMBoRo NOT TO ExPEL
SECRET SOCIETYMEMBER

Rev. G. A. Hemborg, who attended
the meeting of the Augustana synod
at jamestown, N. Y, week ago as a
delegate, yesterday expressed his opin-
ion to the Moline Dispatch in regard to
the synod's refusal to abrogate the
clause barring members of secret So
cieties from memberships the church.
Pastor Hemborg says that as far as
he is concerned he will not advocate
the expulsion of the present mem bers
OF the church who are also members
OF secret societies. While the church
Is opposed to secret societies, he has not
during his passionate in Moline expelled
any mem bers for belonging to a secret
order, and would not do so as long as
as they lived up to the requirements
OF the church rules in other respects.
Furthermore the pastor would not
favor strict adherence to the rule
by the church council. His opinion
is that it is a rule that will not be
strictly enforced, nor could it be en-
forced without serious detriment to
the church, especially in Moline and
all other cities with large congrega-
tions. If this rule were followed in
the New York conference it would re-
suit in the splitting of the church. as
most of the mem bers are also MEM
bers of secret societies.
The general feeling in regard to
this rule is that no one should be re-
fused membership in the church who
by act and word shows that the re-
ligion and teachings of bis church
take precedence to the precepts of his
lodge. And this in face of the fact
that the synod is practically unit
against secret societies.

order was given to move on. Carter

manager is well known to the old
Southern league. Since then he has
lived in Louisville. Ky, where he has
managed various independent teams.
He is credited with knowing a ball
player when no sees one and is a man
who will get the best work out of the
players. He will not play, but will
manage the team from the bench.
lie will handle the team now on. He
will bring new men with him, but
the men now signed on the TEAM will
be given the preference over all COM
ers as long as their work shows up
TO the winning standard. The whole
team will not be turned loose as il
was when the managers were changed
before. The reason for letting Stroth-
ers go was that he was signed to play
and that since he has sprung Char
ley horse it is too expensive to keep
him. Reccius can manage the team
from the bench at a less expense and
promises to put the team on its win
ming feet.
