Arrest Of a Sleek Forgsr Who 0p-
Grated In Las Vegas,
A TRAIN R0BBER U00.

Marshal Cartwright and Deputy Mar
shall AL Lane made an arrest at noon
today that may. prove to be n Of the
most important captures of recent
years, says the Las Vegas Record.
The prisoner claims that his name Is
Woods, but from good evidence 1t Is be-
lieved to be merely one of his numer-
GUS aliases. His right name is believed
to be Guy G.. Gates, alias Guy Lecroix,
Guy williams, Guy E%dgincourt and va
rious others, and he is wanted here on
no less than three charges Of forgery.
Just before last Thanksgiving a
young man presented himself to F. p.
Herzog at his rooming house end re-
quested a room. After being shown to
his room he presented an order to Mr..
Herzog for $24. The order was drawn
on c.. M. Moore, of the Moore Lumber
company, and was signed by Bert
Adams. Mr.. Herzog failed to give him
any money on the order, and so only
lost the price of a nights lodging. as
the order was a forgery. The same
young man appeared at the Central
hotel Thanksgiving day and presented
a San Miguel bank check in favor of
George Walters and signed by Daily &
Adams, for the sum of S24, which was
cashed by David Flint, and subse-
quently found to be a forgery. He was
next heard from as passing a check on
Mr.. Herman. This check was made
payable to Jim McLain by s. Rogers
and was for $3.50. The young man
kindly took Sc trade and the rest in
cash. His next appearance was Mon
day evening, when he bought SIS worth
Of clothing Of the Lewis Shoe & Cloth
ing company, and presented a check
Tor $25 made out to a fictitious party,
as before. and signed by Daily & Ad-
ans, which was cashed and the change
given to him.
Marshal Cartwright was then put on
his trail. He found the young man at
the tie preserving works and placed
him behind the bars.
This afternoon he was Identified by
Mr.. Lewis, Mr.. Flint and Mr.. Herman
as the man who had passed the bogus
checks upon them.
But it appears from later develop
ments that he is wanted on a more
serious charge than forgery, as he an
swers the description of the one train
robber who remained at liberty, of the
gang who held up the Colorado &
Southern train, lear Trinidad, on No
vember Is, last, and for whom there
is a reward of 5000 by the Wells-Fargo
company and the railroad. Colorado
officers have been wired n one of
them is expected down to identify the
prisoner.

II HAIR BRUSH.
Breeds Dandruff, Which Causes Fall

Prof. Unna, Hamburg, Germany, Eu.
ropean authority on skin diseases. says
that dandruff is as contagious as any
other m~aleyolent disease. and that one
common source of the spread of dan.
druff Is the use of the same hair brush
by different persons. The way to avoid
catching dandruff or any other disease
from another's brush. is to insist on
the use of Newbro's Herpicide. 1t not

also an antiseptic that will prevent the

Prefers Chinese to Japanese.

My own opinion is that there isn't half
as much danger from Chinese immigra-
ton as from invasion of our country by
the Japanese" said Mr.. Matthew Gage.
OF Riverside, Cal, at the Arlington.
We tell the Chinaman he can't come
here, but if he were to retaliate, United
States warships would be quickly de-
spatched to punish him for his impudence.
At the same time the japanese are all
lowed TO enter the country without re
striction. Why this is so is one of thu,
mysteries of our governmental system.
The day is coming. though. when the
truth of what | say will be widely dis
seminated. The Objectionable element of

An AdUocafe of
Pensions for Clerks
BY JOSEPH TRAINOR. of the Sixth
Auditors Office

| By JOSEPH TRAINOR, of the Sixth
Auditors Office
From the satirical article of G.. W.
| Harsch, in The Morning Times. it is to be
/ inferred that the committee having the
matter of the retirement of Government
clerks in charge has been wholly unable
TO agree on any measure, and that, so far
as That committee is concerned, the
| clerks cause is hopeless
Now, if that be the fact it is time for
that committee to be gotten rid of and
another committee appointed that will be
able to do something What is the mat
Ter with that committee that 1t is not
able to agree? Is it because certain high
grade clerks are anxious to have a bill
formulated and passed by Congress that
will give them almost as large an income
to retire upon as their present salaries
amount to, and which would REQUIRE
much larger fund than the clerks would
be willing to have deducted from their
salaries There are many suspicions
among the clerks, especially among those
In the lower grades. that this is so. but
the writer OF this is fully convinced that
the great bulk of the clerks in the Gov
eminent departments are not in favor of
scheme that will retire high-salaried
employees or clerks al a high rate of PEN
sion. They are in favor of a medium
rate-say of $50 a month-and that each
clerk retired shall receive the same
amount They are unalterably opposed to
any graded scale of pension to any class
of retired clerks
II this is the bone of contention in the
committee, and the committee cannot
agree on account of it. let that commit
tee retire and let another committee he
appointed, which believes that retire
ment scheme for the old WORKOUT clerks
is actually practicable on the lines of the
bill introduced by Senator Gallinger at
the last session of the Senate. and which
would meet the hearty and universal an
provai OF all the clerks in the depart
ments. except. perhaps, a few who insist
that because they now receive high sal
aries they should he retired on like
high pension
Above all, do not let the retirement
:" theme die, for the clerks in all the de-
partments are. l believe. greatly inter !
ested and solicitous that it should She /

Boston Inferior to the Capital.

4 am fond of Boston. having passed
all MY life there" remarked Capt. John
Kendrick. Of the Massachusetts metrcp-
oils. last night at the Raleigh 1T
grieves me to note. however. that Boston,
in the matter of street railway facilities,
is so greatly inferior to Washington.
1t is true we can boast of the 'ele-
waited the trains OF which are run by
electricity, but candor compels the al
mission that the noise they make is al
most uncomfortable. They make such
roar that people near the line can't sleep
at nights. Riding upon them is exceed
ingly uncomfortable to people who like
to be transported but not jerked about.
The smoothness of riding on your Wash
ington street ears will be all the more
appreciated after an experience with ours
Another admirable feature here is the
sale of six tickets for Il quarter. That

ride frequently, and a concession by the

Watching. with tender face aglow.

Life and its gifts was a priceless boon:
And his heart was filled with a radiant
JOY,
While watching the beautiful silver
moon,
As in and out through the clouds It came
Now dark. now light, yet ever the same
The little boy watched it in mute sur
prise.
From whence had it come, and why.
and how?
His voice translated the thought so wise

Butch, he has taken it in too soon,"
AS a cloud sailed over the face of the
moon.
For a moment sorrovful little face.
Then with dark eyes shining and smile
serene,
Up spoke Boy Blue" with child-like
grace.
And faith and trust for us all, weea.
God forgot about me and took in the
light,
But he'll hang out his lantern again some
night"
