TERROR TO MEXICANS
81 Renegade, the Hero of a Thrill
ing Border Tale.
Caused Rebellion Among the VA
Qui Indians and Thea Made HE
ape-Assisted by IA
Pretty Girl.

Like a page out of the obsolete bor-
der romances of Gustave Aimard or a
chapter of Mayne Reid's "Headless
Horseman," is the narrative of the ad-
ventures of Sci Renegade" the Amer
lean fiibuster who has been recruit
ing for the rebel Yaquis on this side of
the Mexican line.
There came to the village of Naco.
Ariz., stranger dressed in the habit
of the desert, long-haired and beard
ed like bandit. This man was the
renegade, but nobody in Naco knew
him. He erected three tents near the
edge of the town and hung out sign
reading: Beds, 25 Cents; Meals, 25
Cents" The legend at once excited
the establishment and SUSPICION of the
townspeople, for in Naco it is custom
airy to charge the wayfarer one dollar
for nights lodging and rs cents for
a meal.
1t was not the purpose of the rene
gade to attract the rich. He was not
seeking recruits among the prosperous
rough riders of the plains, or even among
those who cross the boundary at night
to escape the vigilance of the customs
police. What this emissary of the
Iaqui insurgents wanted was men who
were desperate in the abiectness of
their poverty, battered soldiers of for
tune, adventures at the climax of
hopeless enterprise. To such as these
lei Renegade" appealed with vivid elo-
quence, picturing in glowing terms
that rich loot was to be acquired by
resolute spirits.
When the authorities of Naco event.
ually awoke to the real business of
their renegade countryman the fill
buster had folded his tents and silent
ly stolen away.
He returned to Sonora and stirred
rebellion among the peaceful Yaquis
of Guaymas and Hermosillo, telling
them that the Americans were their
allies, and that they need no longer

Danger for Deep-sea Fish.

1t is dangerous for fish whose nat
ural home is at great depths to get
out of its stratum. Should it get out
of its depth there would be sudden
upward suction and the fish would be

The interior pressure of the bodv

Lamps That Talk or Sing

Electric lamps can not only be made
to talk, but also to sing. An ordinary
arc light can be made to produce
sound by placing the arc in the circuit
of telephone instead of the ordinary
receiver or instead of the ordinary
transmitter. In either of these posi-
tions it will pronounce words, which
can be heard distinctly at a consider
able distance. 1t naturally follows.
also, that the electric arc can be util-
lied as the receiver and also as the
transmitter of the telephone.

fear the rifles and the lances of their
Mexican oppressors.
The police of Guaymas and Hermo-
sillo made nightly raids upon the sus-
pected rendezvous of the conspirat tors
in quest of arms and other evidence of
reasonable hostility. In one of the
houses they found a small American
flag nailed to the wall, and beneath it
the inscription: Death to Porfirio
Diazi"
Thus the renegade has kept the
cities of Sonora in a constant fer
ment of terror. Ably assisting lei
Renegade" in this work of rebellion
and treachery was Dietta James, a
little girl who had learned TO smile
sweetly on those she jacksonville in
noceutly questioning them concern
ing the things that her master
wished to know.
Dietta James came from San Jose
In California. She had been reused
to fanatical fury against the Next
cans by the utterances of Santa
Teresa, the companion of lei Rene
gado" in his crimes against the Mex
Ican government. When Santa Teresa
went TO New York and Chicago to
secure funds for the Yaquis, Dietta
James became the spy of the rene
gade, bringing him information of
the movements of his foes. During
this time lei Renegade" was incog-
nito at the Grand Central hotel of
Hermosillo, or the Hotel Central at
Guaymas. The little girl, who is only
Is years old, distributed small Amer
lean flags among the enemies of Mex
leo, accompanying her distribution
with such explosives of treason as
Down with MeXico!" and Long live
the Yaquis and the Yankees, forever
allied!"
Finally the police traced this in
cendiary work to Dietta James,
whom they found in the Hotel Cen
trail of Guaymas-alone. The rene
grade had fled. The child was so
young and apparently so innocent of
personal intent to do wrong that the
police refrained from arresting her.
They placed her under strict sur
VIGILANCE and tried to induce her to
betray her co-conspirators by deli
cately questioning and promises of
ample rewards, but in vain.
1t was the belief of the police that
''El Renegade" had returned to the
Yaqui country, where he would be
absolutely free from any pursuit;
but they intercepted a letter from
the leader of the rebellion to Dietta
James, and from this letter they
learned that the fugitive had gone
north, intending to cross the Ameri-
can boundary. The letter was posted
at Magdalena, a town a few miles
south of Nogales. Dietta James was
informed by this message of the
safety of the renegade and his in
tention to cross The line into Ari-
IONA.

JUDGE SCORES GOV. BLISS.
Pardon OF Michigan Criminal Denounced

perjury case in the Circuit Court caused
surprise because Of the Courts caustic
criticism OF Gov. A. T. Bliss. The Gov
ernor recently pardoned Deputy Game
Warden Spaford Of Cadillac, who was
convicted OF granddaughter at Frankfort.
His friends then charged that Thomas
perjured himself in order to qualify as a
juror in the Spafford case, and Gov. Bliss
in extending clemency alleged that 1t was
a packed jury that had convicted Spafiord.
In the Thomas c@se Judge Chittenden
ordered the jury to bring in verdict OF
not guilty
This whole proceeding 30 far as the par
doning OF Spsford is concerned and the
arrest and detention Of this respondent,

justice and fair play, said Judge Chittenden.

HONOR R"MANCHESTER MARTYRS.'
Two Great Meetings OF Irishmen Praise
Their Deed-Lynch's Freedom Asked.


The members Of the United Irish League
of New York held a meeting In Carnegie
Hall last night to celebrate the anniversaries
of the deaths of Theobald Wolf Tone in
1898 and of the Manchester martyrs"
Allen, Larkin and O Bren in 1857. John
Purroy Mitchell opened the meeting with
a speech in which he said that the liberties
of people were we'll worth the shedding Of
many drops Of blood, but that for the present
the Irish people must continue to Use peace
full means for the accomplishment Of their
freedom.
Mgr. Mooney. who presided, made a
brief speech and then William McAdoo,
Assistant Secretary of the Navy, made
one of the two orat;ons of the evening.
Mr.. McAdoo said that some people called
what the Manchester martyrs did species
of knight errantry and that it had no re-
suits.
But say it had .esul.s-trmendous
results said Mr. McAdoo. AS those
three bodies swung in midair from the
gibbet the alien Irish church in Ireland
tottered to its fall, and from this to the
creation of the machinery to wipe out the
last ves,ige Of ~ landlordism. every
advance made by Ireland has been due to
the sacrifices made by those three men.
And what did England reap? A harvest
! SO fearful that it shook the very hearts of
En- slishmen Eleven million enemies in
the United States, enemies in every country
where her flag has foated, and ever and
always rebellious Ireland at her DOORS"
| Mr. McAdoo said he understood that reso-
lutions bearing on the case of Col. Lynch
were to be presented to the meeting. This
man. he said, is he only prisoner of war
! Great Britain holds az present, and it was
| the duty of all 10y al Irishmen to send him
