CHAPTER XIV.
NARROWED.

There's one. See him, captain 4?
Right beyond those weeds, on the
bank of that little island, almost
under the big rock! Don't you see
him?''
Hestor danced around the forecas-
tie in the most excited manner. Capt.
Waters looked in the direction in
which he was pointing.
Don't you see him? Take my
glass and you can see him as plain

The first shot struck the water
to the right about 100 feet from the
loglike object. Hestor swung the
gun with a quick movement to the
left, and a marine raised the muzzle
with the turn of an adjusting de-

edge of the bank was churned into

air; the great jaws opened and bel

agony. 1t rushed for the bank, but

THE BROTHERHOOD OF DEATH

ON a VELDT CEMETERY
Peace to the quiet dead.
Trooper and burgher here,
True TO the men who led
True to their lights fell near;
question not right nor wrong,
Question not gain nor loss,
Brothers in death they lie
Under the starry cross.
Brave men and true alike
Matters not creed nor race
All are of one great kin
Here in the resting place.
Nation gainst nation strives
Endlessly meath the sun;
When the great silence" falls
All are in rest as one.
Tears for the wrongs that keep
Far from us peace and good!
Tears that in life there Is
No happy brotherhood.
Peace to the quiet dead
Life's errors cleared away
Brothers in hope they wait
The breaking of the day.

BAD ACCIDENT.
Little Boy Run over IN Main Street In
Roswell,


Wednesday afternoon about 6
o'clock Roy Taylor, the 8 year old son
of j. w. Taylor, started to cross the
street near the Shelby hotel. Two
young ladies were driving rapidly
down the street and did not see the lit
tie fellow, and they ran over him, in
juring him. The front axle struck the
boy on the forehead, and he was taken
home in a buggy by E. L. Wildly. A
physician was summoned and it was
found that he was not dangerously in
jured.
The incident that attracted particu-
lar attention was that the young ladies
did not stop when they ran over the
boy to see how badly he was injured.
Later it developed that the cause OF
this action was that the young ladies
were excited, and they Immediately
drove TO their home and cot their
mother and returned to IT, scene OF
the accident.
Burk Taylor, aged 6 years, a brother
of Roy, was run over by a two horse
wagon near the depot aboJ a month
ago. The wagon ran over both of his
legs and the driver never stopped tc
see how badly the boy vas injured
The identity Of the driver has never
been learned.-Roswell Register.

Banker GraYson Extradited.

Boston, June 3.-Moody Merrill,
known as Grayson, who was brought
here under extradition had bail fixed
at $4,000 after being locked up.
There seemed to be grave doubt in
the mind of Governor Odell of New
York whether he should sign a writ
of eXtradition in the case of Moody
Merrill and urn him over to the Mas
sachusetts authorities for trial on the
indictment found more than ten years
ago. The point raised by the governor
is that he is not bound to sign extra
dition papers if the crime charged in
another state would not be a violation
of the New York penal code.
In Merrill's behalf II was urged that
an attempt was being made to force a
settlement in a matter that properly
belonged to the civil courts, and that
the complainant, Mrs. Sarah Cohen,
had been trying to obtain money
than had yet been offered. 1t was al
legged that the indictment was based
primarily upon an unpaid pTomissory
note, upon which Mrs. Cohen had re-
ceived interest for two years before
Merrill's flight from Boston.

Faces New CHARGES.

New York, June Moody Merrill
the alleged fugitive from Massachu-
sets justice, white and haggard, faced
court today.
Shrinking from the gaze of the curl
Gus he was astonished to see Mrs.
Leon Havier, a niece of his wife, who
says her mother lost $4,000 through
him.
Mrs. Havier lives with her sister,
Mrs. Florence A. Clifford, at No. 1886
Broadway. AS soon as she learned of
Merrill's arrest she took steps to col
lect her claim, for which it is said her
mother, Mrs. George A. Baker, oh.
tanned a judgment when Merrill van
ished from Boston, years ago.
Merrill went with her into a private
room. His counsel was not present at
their talk.
When Merrill was taken before
Magistrate Deuel. the latter was told
that Governor John l.. Bates had sign
ed requisition papers which were or
their way to Governor Odell. The hear
ing was adjourned.
Merrill seemed surprised that Mrs
Havier claimed the original amount
He said he had made regular remit
tances to John Fottler, in Boston, t.
pay his financial obligations and he
had supposed that Mrs. Havier's
mother had received her share. 1t IL
supposed that Merrill made promises
to Mrs. Havier, which satisfied her
She has no begun any suit. Thomas
F. Wentworth, Merrill's lawyer, saiC
that she was in no way hostile to Mer
rill.
AS Merrill was leaving court a sum
mons in an action brought against hin
by James Caldwell was served OF
him. 1t is expected that there will b,
a hearing on the requisition papers be
fore Governor Odell.

BIG MINING DEAL.
An Arizona Mine Sold to M~innesotsns

One of the heaviest deals in the
| Warren district this season has just

Review.
The property is known to residents
of Bisbee as Dutch Bakers" and the
cabin on the ground has been a land

of this property, to the Calumet and

is $4,000 per claim, or 5000 900 in all,
$4,000 will be paid to Hanniger and
| the balance to Pirrung.
Mr.. Pirrung recently returned from

ton was laid for the deal. Louis

hens lawyer insisted that the tote
mentioned represented only a part of
the money obtained from his client
through fraud, as she placed about
$685. 600 in Merrill's hands, and the
claim, with interest, is now in the
neighborhood of $50 900.
Arguments were heard by Governor
Odell in his private % at the Fifth
Avenue hotel. Winthrop M. Merrill,
of Boston, made a strong plea for his
father, who sat beside him with his
hands twitching nervously and his
eyes downcast. The young man spoke
rapidly and earnestly in describing his
fathers honorable career in the south
west, where he was known as Col.
Charles f. Grayson, and said his great
ambition had been to settle his old
indebtedness.
This claim would have been set
tied before now" continued the son,
had it not been for a man whom my
father trusted as a friend. My father
trusted this man, who told him things
that caused him to DISTRICT me, and
kept us apart for a time"
Mr.. Merrill produced checks aggre-
eating nearly $4,000, which his faith
err had sent to John Fottler, Jr., in
Boston. and read several letters that
had passed between them.
Young Merrill urged that these pay
ments showed his fathers good faith
and that he is now suffering for the
shortcomings of his friend. He said
Mrs. Cohen has known Merrills
whereabouts for years.

IN DEEPER WATER.
Moody Merrill, Of Boston, and Col,
GrdysOn, Of New Mexico,
IN MORE TROUBLE IN THE eAST.i

A telegram from Boston, dated June
2, and published throughout the coun-
try, regarding the Merrill rayson
case, is as follows:
Moody Merrill's attorneys, Benjamin
l.. M. Tower, in Boston, and ex-Judge
Thomas T. Wentworth, in New York,
are preparing to open up Merrill's deal
ing under the name of Col. Charles F.
Grayson, of New Mexico, with John
Fottler, Jr., of Boston, if the Ease goes
to Governor Odell for action.
Merrill has kept all the letters sent
to him by Mr.. Fottler during the past
three years, during the time Merrill
says he was given to understand that
the money he sent was being applied
toward %liquidating his debts in this
city.
These letters from Mr.. Fottler show
that he was in charge of Merrill's in
terests here, and hat he correspond
ed with Col. Charles f. Grayson, pres
ident of the Silver City National
bank, of Silver City, N. NJ, to assure
him that he was looking out for him,
and doing his best to hasten the day
when Merrill might walk the streets of
Boston without fear of molestation.
merrill has produced four checks and
a draft calling for a total of SIS, $40
which Charles F, Grayson sent to Mr..
Fottler to be used in Merrill's behalf.
The draft which was for 81, 900, from
Mr.. Fottler, was paid by Merrill to OBJ
tain some letters, a photograph of Col
onel Grayson taken in front of the
Silver City bank, and a number of
documents showing the identity of
Grayson, which were obtained by a
Boston a from a woman who
formerly was Grayson's housekeeper
in Silver City. The Boston mar Sc
cured the evidence calculated to ex-
pose Grayson as the missing Moody
Merrill.
Mr.. Fottler paid $500 for the docu-
ments to an agent of the nan in ques-
ton. Merrill's attorneys said that all
Merrill received was photographs of
the papers, he never saw the originals.
OF the mass of correspondence be-
tween Mr.. Fottler and Merrill, two let
ters of Mr.. Fottler bear especially
upon the claim of Mrs. Cohen. One is
sent to a friend Of Merrill at Silver
City to ssh him that Mrs. Cohen
vas not in a position to make any
trouble for him, as she had incurred
the displeasure OF District Attorney
Stevens.

His Last Hope Realized.

From the sentinel, Gebo, Mont.
In the first opening Of Oakland to
settlers in 1889, the editor OF this pa
per was among ale many seekers after
fortune who made the big race n
fine day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim, he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave him a very severe
diarrhoea which it seemed almost I'M
possible to check, and along in June
the case became so bad he expected to
die. One day one of his n~eighbors
brought him one small bottle OF Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about on the ground in great agony,
and in a few minutes Lne dose was re-
peated. The good effect OF the medi-
cine was soon noticed and within an
hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for a fortnight. That one
nttle bottle worked a complete cure
and he cannot help but feel grateful
