MAN CHARGED WITH MURDER
ARRESTED IN CALIFORNIA.
El Paso daily herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1881-1901, 1901-02-01

Sheriff Hume, of Erath county,
Texas. left Ell Paso this morning for
Sacramento, California, to bring back
a fugitive murderer.
The fugitive'S name is Frank Hyatt
He is wanted for a murder committed
in 1SS9-more than ten years ago.
The Sacramento Bee gives the fol-
lowing account of the capture of
Hyatt alias lads:
Chief of Police Sullivan and Police
Officer Maley have effected a clever
capture.
Yesterday afternoon a man who for
five years has worked in Car Shop 5
at the Southern Pacific plant in this
city under the name of George Eads.
was locked up and a charge placed
against him of having murdered Ste
phen PreSSey in Erath county, Texas,
in 1889.
Chief Sullivan obtained from Eads a
confession of the crime, which Eads
signed, with the chief and George Ma
ley and Max p. Fisher as witnesses.
In his confession Eads-or Frank
Hyatt, as he admits his true name is
says that Pressey was his first wife's
stepfather; that they had a dispute
about a division fence: that PreSSey
took up a cobble to fling at him and
that he seized a piece of lumber and
delivered a blow to avert the cobble.
The blow. instead of striking Pressey
on the arm, hit his head and killed
him. EadS says that believing that he
would not get fair deal in the courts
with Pressey's friends for witnesses
he skipped the country, and that he
lived in various states under various
| names: that his first wife having died
he remarked in Wisconsin under the
| name of Martin, and that he assumed
| the name of Eads when he came here
and obtained employment at the shops.
Chief Sullivan and officer Maley,
about three weeks ago, obtained infor-
| nation that a man was living in this
| city who was wanted for a murder
committed in Texas and the arrest and
obtaining n confession are due to
their own efforts, the Texas officials
having but little information TO enable
the officers to accomplish results. Eads
or Hyatt. rather-will be kept in the
city prison pending action by the Tex
as officials, who have wired that he be
held.

THE MATTER OF JOLTS.

The Massachusetts, supreme court
has decided that street car joits do not
prove contributory negligence on the
part of the motorman. This seems to
leave the fieul wide open for the jolt
ers. The motorman. if of a revengful.
or playful disposition, can jolt the very
socks off his accomplishing load-for
what's the good of complaining in the
face of the Massachusetts precedent?
Some time ago a passenger on the
Wade Park line happened to let his
gaze wander to the heaving floor of the
car.
Sir" he said between the jolts to
the man opposite him. "your false
teeth appear to have ben jolted out of
your mouth and onto the floor of the
car
Sir said the unfortunate passen-
ger. 81 am well aware of the unpleas-
ant fact. Don't you see that I am sit
ting here waiting for that brute of a
motorman to jolt 'em back again."
AS they say in the higher Institutes
of learning. Wouldn't that jolt you,'

A FAMILY SECRET.

A thoroughly congenial party was
in fashionable down town cafe.
Those at the table were old friends.
but several of them had not met before
for years. Therefore the three-year-
old hopeful of Mr.. and Mrs Mac was
not only a new acquaintance of the
others, but was an object of unusual
interest by reason Oh the manner in
which the father boosted of the little
chaps intellectual attainments.
While awaiting the appearance of
the ice cream. Mr.. Mac grasped the
opportunity to dazzle his friends with
the brightness of the boy.
Now SON. he said, won't you spell
Jim for the ladies and gentlemen"
"J-i-m.'' responded Jimmy Mac in
a faint, heistant voice.
That's a good little man proudly
said the father. And now spell

TRIED TO KILL BRIDE.

A dispatch from Albuquerque tells
the story of an attempted murder
prompted by jealousy, which occurred
at Coboyetiti. Valencia county. At the
residence of Jose Francisco Anzures
there was being held a function to Gel
citrate the approaching wedding of the
daughter of a county commissioner.
Auastocio Vadia was there with his
12-year-old son. While the festivities
were in progress a shot was fired
through the window and Vadia's son
was instantly killed. The party at
once broke up and the men rushed out
side in the hopes of catching the as
sassin. but nobody was found. Suspi-
cion pointed to two young men, Sec
undino Martinez and Josesito Chaves.
and they were arrested. 1t is supposed
that the deadly missile was intended
for the prospective bride. as the shot
passed through her hair, making a
scalp wound. Martinez. one of the fell
lows arrested. was in love with the
young woman. who had refused to ac-
cept his attentions and is engaged to
another young man.
NO REFLECTION UPON Ell PASO.
The Midwinter Carnival at Ell Paso
El Paso daily herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1881-1901, 1901-02-01

was a success and reflects great credit
upon our sister metropolis. The pa
rades, etc, were far beyond the expec-
tation of many. Captain sent its
quota of visitors to the carnival and
all returned home pleased with what
they saw as well as with the treatment
accorded them by the citizens OF the
town The only complaint that we
hear made was the conspicuous num-
Der of light fingered gentry present.
but this was no reflection upon FL
Paso. Bunco steerers usually flock to
such places and the only way to escape
them is to refuse to bite at their
games. The public are in great meas
use responsible for the sure thing"

his games he could not exist upon his
calling.-Capitan Progress.
TOO MUCH LIQUOR.
An Albuquerque saloon keeper step
ped out his side door early in the
morning and found the form of a wo-
man half sitting and crouching against
the side of the building. He vert up
and took hold of her arm and found
that she was cold and stiff IN death
The body was that of Mrs. Elena Sc
dillo, native about so years of age,
who had lived in Albuquerque a long
time. She occupied a room i'll the
building against which her body was
found. She was addicted to the excess
sive use of liquor and was in the saloon
the night before about ten clock
considerably under the influence of
liquor. She was not seen after that
until the next morning when she was
found dead by the saloon keeper. She
lived alone, having for a long time
been separated from her husband.
GOVERNORS DAUGHTER DEAD.
Elizabeth Emmett, the 7-months-old
daughter of Governor and Mrs. O,ero,
died in Santa Fe Monday of conges-
ton of the lungs. The legislature and
supreme court adjourned and adopted
suitable resolutions out of respect for
Mr.. and Mrs. Otero. The remains were
taken to Denver for interment.

A MATRIMONIAL QUESTION.
Should a Man Marry Before He can
Offer His Wife a Home? The emil
nine Solution.

Should a man make a home before
ne asks a woman to marry him. OF
should he marry first and let the home
making follow the wedding? This is
rather a nice social question and it is
entertainingly discussed in ]. p. Now
bray's article, ~ ne Making of a
Country Home" IN Everybody's Mag
aZine.
Discussing the limitations and the
helplessness of life in a fiat under con-
ditions that seem to prescribe a rise,
John Denison says to his wife:
"a man ought to reach his goal be-
fore he takes a wife, for the more he
loves her the more of a handicap she
is. Don't you see that"
mo, l don't see it at ALL
But you understand that he will
not take any risk when he is married; ;
would rather plod securely than con-
quer at his peril. I ought to have made
n home fit for such a wife as | have
before I married her"
Then she laughed one of her copious
mellow laughs. Il think you have got
that wrong, John, upon my word / do
Homes do not produce wives or lead
up to them. 1t is just the other way.
it seems to me. The wives produce the
homes. Young men. as 1 understand
it, think just about as much of making
home before they get wife. as they
do about making a flying trip to the
moon. Why, it would be just too
ridiculous, John, to see a young man
building home and furnishing it. and
then expecting wife and baby to drop
in because it's ready. as the wrens do.
You know yourself YOU never would
have had a home like this if you
hadn't got married. How could you?"
