Women's cells to sober lp. He pro-
ceeded at once to break up the window
sash and furniture and pile it in a
heap against the wall and then set fire
to it. Had five minutes elapsed before
the discovery of the blaze he might
have succeeded in suffocating himself

The government ofliC ia,s cooperate
heartily with the organization and one
important matter is in respect OF quar-

fever and the department usually acts
upor the recommendations Of the in
terstate meeting in fixing this line. for

HE GOT AWAY.-Sheriff Denham
of Brown county, Texas. finally got out
of the territory with his man. Hughes
or Humphrey, as the name may be.
He went overland to d point near the
New Mexico line and then took the
train. From FL Paso he writes back
to the Bisbee Review his side of the
case as follows: Il deny that it was
q case of kidnapping or any violation
of the law whatever. The fact of the
matter is that it was not until the
morning of the 18th that l got my
requisition papers. But before l did
d cheap lawyer, whose name should be
'Flimfiam.' tried to prevent my taking
HUMPHREYS by instituting habeas cor
pus proceedings. l knew that this at
torney would try in every way to de
tain me. so 1 didn't wait for the train,
but started cut for FL Paso to prevent
the service of another habeas corpus
writ. The reason l followed this course
was because this attorney boasted to
me that he once followed Kentucky
sheriff and so delayed him that the
sheriff gave up in despair and went
home without his prisoner. There was
no forged telegram and everything was
done according to law. In my opinion
this story of the forged telegram orig
mated in the disordered mind of this
attorney.
