 Some time ago party noticed that the little bubbles from the bottom of one of the springs came to the surface with unusual force and frequency, and 1t oc- cured to him that the existence of gas in the ground was responsible therefor.
 A torch was applied to the bubbles as they came to the top of the spring, with the result that blue flame sprang up and fingered on the waters surface for some seconds.
 From this experiment grew the appar- entity well founded rumor that natural gas had been discovered at Enterprise.
 Whether there is gas in that vicinity or whether petroleum exists there Is yet to be determined, but Is a fact, never theless that combustible fluid of a disagreeable odor Is emitted from the springs and aceumulates in the wells that are dug.

Mir. B. McDade received a telegram last night from Waldo Myers. sta- toned at the mine of the Meridian com pany in Mexico, stating that the tunnel men had uncovered a five inch vein of high grade silver ore
 This was the prospect which had been held for several years by the discoverer an old man. who could get no one with money interested in the property
 The Meridian company, upon the rec concentrations of MT. Myers, took over the claim and began to sink shaft and run a level from the side hill It must have been that the silver bearing rock was struck shortly after the miners got into the ground, as they have not been at work long enough on the property to have made much progress.
 The officers of the company in this city are very much pleased over the news of the new strike.

AGREES TO SUPP 0RT HER.
Husband Will Support His Wife and
Child Hereafter.

The arrest and prosecution of some
men for neglecting to support their wives
and families often has good results, as
shown by the case against H. G.
Williamson, a young man who was ar
rested October % on charge of nom
support of his wife and child, Florence
and Ruth Williamson.
The defendant this morning agreed to
pay his wife and child $50 month
hereafter, and the case against him was
dismissed by County Attorney Breen.
Williamson entered into written
agreement with the county attorney.
and the latter notified Judge Neenan to
discharge the defendant, who was out
of Jail on bail pending his trial.
The agreement contained a clause in
which it was agreed that a copy Of the
agreement should be filed with William
sons employer as an assignment of his
wages to the extent of Mrs. William
sons claim against him monthly.
The copy is to be transferred to
Williamson's successive employers as he
changes his employment. In consider
alton of the agreement Mrs. Williamson

MONEY FADES away
SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS STOLEN
FROM KING & LOWRY.
BARKEEPER NOW IN CUSTODY
w. G. Tranter Charged With Knowing
Something About the Missing
Cash-Further Developments
Expected.

William c. Tranter, who has held the
position of barkeeper at King & Lowry's
saloon, in Main street, about two years,
Is under arrest on charge OF grand
larceny preferred by his employers, King
& Lowry.
The arrest was made Wednesday even
ing, and since then Tranter has been in
the county jail.
A few weeks ago a roll of greenbacks
aggregating $1,000 mysteriously disap-
peared from the private Office of the
proprietors at the rear end of the bar.
All in Big Bills.
The money was in $500 and $1,000 bills
and was in a box on a tray. Desiring to
get some papers from the safe, Mr.. King
took the tray from the interior and laid
it on top.
Just then someone entered the Office
and engaged him in conversation and
he forgot about the money.
Shortly afterwards he left the Office,
ana duringthis absence the money faded
away.bnBy and by Mr.. King remem-
Neredl that he had left the money out of
the safe and returned to replace it, but
it was gone.
The matter was reported to the police
and a watch was placed on the en-
ployes.
For a time no trace of the money
could be obtained by the proprietors of
the house, but the more the matter was
investigated the deeper became the sus-
picion that someone connected with the
place had taken it.
Tranter Under Suspicion.
Suspicion finally became directed to-
wards Tranter, and his arrest followed.
Mr.. King today declined to say any,
thing in regard to the affair, further
than the fact that they knew what they
We're doing and that there might be fur
Their developments in the case before the
end of the day.
Mr.. Tranter was married about year
ago and has been residing at 304 South
Washington street. He is &c years old.

Edwards with coupling pin or brake
club and knocked him from the train

CRIMINAL CHARGES
SEVERAL DEFENDANTS BEFORE
JUDGE M'CLERNAN TODAY.
GAMBLERS MAKE OBJECTIONS
Towner and Thorrig Plead Not Guilty
Bonds Raised on Colored Men
Westrum Denies Forgery
Charge.

In the gambling cases against T. O..
Towner and A. Thorrig in Judge Nc
Clernan's court, there was a good deal
of legal squirming by the defendants
this morning.
The attorneys for the men, C. M.
Parr and George Sinclair, filed a mo-
ton to Quash the information against
them On the ground that the motion Of
the county attorney for leave to file
the information was insufficient in it's
contents.
The motion to quash was also made on
the ground that an action was already
pending against the defendants in Judge
Arnold's court on the same charge.
Judge McClernan overruled the M
ton. The attorneys then moved the
court to strike out certain words in the
information, on the ground that they
were irrelevant. immaterial and re-
dundant.
Motion Is Overruled
Deputy County Attorney Yancey re-
sisted the motion. and the court over
ruled it also. After that. Attorneys Sim
clair and Parr demurred to the Informal
ton on all the four grounds named in
the statute. The demurrer was. over
ruled. and the technical resources of the
defendants were then exhausted.
It now fell upon the gamblers to plead
and they both entered pleas of not guilty
Their cases will be set for trial later
when Judge McClernan shall have made
preparations to try all the criminal cases
pending.
The case of three other alleged
gamblers also came up. These were col
ored men, charged with playing craps
They We're James Jefferson, William
Jackson and Harvey Holmes. Their at
torney, Ed Booth, had them in court for
arraignment. Holmes had been at lib
erty on his own recognizance and Jeffer-
son and Jackson each had 800 in cash on
deposit with the sheriff's Office for their
freedom.
Bonds Are increased.
Judge McClernan raised the bonds of
the latter to $500 and put bond of $500
upon Holmes. Holmes, who is known as
the King of Darktown, was given till
Monday to raise the bail, and the other
defendants went to Jail, leaving the bail
ing of them to their friends The trio will
plead on next Monday.
Marcus Westrum, charged with forg
ing Wells & Fargos express orders,
pleaded not guilty to a second informa-
ton today, after being arraigned on the
charge. He will be arraigned on third
charge later Westrum has been lodged
in Jail since his arrest, as he has not
desired bail.

entered and departed from the court
house. The under sheriff lodged his
prisoner at the county Jail last night
and took him away to Warm Springs
this morning.
Hageman's insanity is intermittent.
When it comes on he is either the rich
est man in the country or full of rattle
snakes and tarantulas. Therefore he is
either happy or miserable, according to
the character of the halfucination. When
he is rich. he thinks he built all the rail-
roads in the country and owns all the
gold mines in Alaska, and has an in
come of $6,O00,000 day.
He was rich this morning and he hired
the under sheriff to take charge of few
railroads and bunch Of mines at $780,
600 month. The officer asked for his
salary in advance, and then the de-
mentia took turn and the man shiv-
cred and Quaked While toads and lizards
and other reptiles ran over him in
