A JEWElRt THIEF.
Mahbed, With the Goods, Last Night
in This CITY,.
WILL Be TAKEN TO LAS VEGAS.

Henry b. Hill, good looking and
demure youth of 18 summers, who says
his home Is in Richmond, Va, was ar
rested at the station last evening on
the arrival of No. from the east Dur
ing the latter part of the afternoon
Chief of Police McMillin received sew
eral kilograms from Chief of Police
Cartwright, of Las Vegas, telling him
that Hill was on his way to this city
with a bunch of jewelry that he had
stolen at the residence of j. f. Lewis
in that city on Thursday night. Spe-
cial Officer Barton found Hill on the
front car, and he submitted to arrest
without murmur In his handker-
chief was found ladys small watch,
several pins and rings and other small
jewelry notions. He was taken to the
Jail and locked up for the night.
This morning a Citizen representa-
tive saw him and he was feeling pretty
bad over his predicament. He said he
left his home in Richmond about two
weeks ago and was bound for Los An
geles, where. he was going to work fol
an uncle who was a plumbing contrac
tor. He had about s32 when h,
stopped off in Las Vegas, where h,
fell in with bad company and gambleo
and drank his money up.
! In a semi-intoxicated condition ht
formed the friendship of young man
who was also broke, and together they
tried several back doors on Thursday
evening At the Lewis residence they
found the door open and he went up
stairs into a bedroom and collared all
the jewelry in sight. His friend mean
while waited on the porch, and he took
one lady's gold watch as his snare for
acting guard. Hill said he was a
printer by trade, and this was the first
time he had ever been In trouble; that
his father, who was an old man about
so years old and formerly a Baptist
minister, would be badly grieved If he
heard of his troubles. Hills grief was
genuine and he asked what would be
done with him, for he said he was
guilty. He said the skeleton keys
found in his handkerchief bag were
given him by his friend in crime.
Sheriff Romero, of San Miguel coun
ty, who is in the city on official bust
ness, will take Hill to the Meadow
City this evening

ence of a distinguished gathering of
officials from Washington and the

ELKS' NIGHT.
The AntIerS in Force at St. Joseph
Bazaar.
LUCKY M'GINN.

The Elks were the supreme beings
at the st. Joseph's bazaar last night
and their successful operations will be
recorded. giving the Best People on
Earth their share for increasing the
receipts of last night.
The spacious hall was crowded with
richly gowned young ladies, stylishly
appearing young men, while the seats
on the adorned stage were filled with
happy mothers and wives. At the rear
of the stage the elegant and comfort
able smoking room, furnished a cosy
nook for the Elks and gentlemen Wis
itors who delight in a good cigar and
quiet.
The. contest of all contests during
the evening which attracted the par
ticular attention of the Elks. was the
drawing for the handsome Elks'
charm. Frank G. McGinn, the well
known bookkeeper for F. J Post &
Co. was the lucky man The gentle
men experimenting the drawing were
Mayor Myers, ]. II. O'Rielly, Fred
Fisher, w. J. Johnson and J. w. Pres
tel. The eleventh number drawn was
the lucky number, 40, which was held
by Mr.. McGinn. An interesting coinci-
dence connected with the drawing of
the locket is that the winner was the
last man initiated into the local
lodge.
A more generous hearted gathering
of ladies, gentlemen and Elks would
be difficult to find.
The chances on the locket were sold
at one dollar each, and there were one
hundred sold which made the receipts
look better.
The ice cream booth made an excel
lent showing last night, which proved
that many ice cream appetites were in
attendance.
The sandwich and coffee both are
laying in complete line of supplies to-
day, the crowd last night were beyond
doubt fond of the excellent lunch.
When so many gentlemen were pres
ent the cigars that Mrs. Prestel had
in charge disappeared in a most sur
prising manner, but an exchange was
left behind TO show where they had
gone
