 AN FL PASO KILLING.-John L" Huerr of Fl Paso was shot and in" stantly killed there late last Saturday night. He had been attending dance and as he came down the stairs from the ball room he was shot by a man by the name of Henry HierholtzeI. There had been no trouble between thc men and shortly before the shooting they had been talking together in the ball room. Immediately after the shoot
 ing HierhOltzer disappeared but Deputy Sheriff Roberts. who arrived from Fl Paso yesterday, said that HierholtZer was found just before he left the city. He said that Hierholtzer had in his pocket two packages of poison and that it was thought that he intended to kill himself after the killing of Huerr but that his nerve failed him. There is a supposition that the murderer is in sane.
 SENTENCED TO WEDLOCK-Jus- tice Robertson yesterday passed judg ment on Arturo Celizo, who was arrest ed on a warrant from his court charg- | ing Celizo with the seduction of Car men Gotta, a Mexican girl of immature years. The judgment was that he should, in accordance with the territor- ial law, either marry or at once stand trial The judgment was not unexpect- ed. for the defendant came to court armed with a marriage license and backed by the friends of both families. | The courtroom was crowded with Mexi- | can youths who were interested in the | fate of their companion and when the | contracting parties announced their de- sire to enter into the matrimonial state
 the court proceeded to prepare for the | ceremony. The only preparation neces-
 sary. however, was the delivery of a l judicial sermon, The sermon was de | signe< for the audience, which seemed 1 to be a receptive one, rather than the parties immediately concerned. II seemed to be an opportunity for the | dissemination of a little legal gospe
 that ought not to be overlooked, and
 after the lesson had been made clear | the wedding was performed as a horri-
 ble example for these inclined to trave
 in crooked pathways. The newly mar
 ried couple, however, seemed to ba sat
 isfied and fully determined to Hive hap
 py ever after or die in the attempt
 The guardian of the girl and the mother
 of the youth signed the certificate as
 witnesses and the bride was immediate | ly welcomed to the home of her mother
 in-law.
 WANTS A SHORT CUT-John Stan
 ley, the forger, who was brought back
 from Fl Paso yesterday by Deputy
 Sheriff Roberts wants to go to the
 penitentiary with the least possible de-
 lay. He is the man who forged the
 name of Legier, the stone cutter. foI
 whom he had been working, to a checl;
 for $40, which he had cashed at R. F.
 Dolls. He left here the same nient
 and was next heard of at Fl Paso where | he was working at his trade of stone
 cutter. He had changed His name to | John Michaels, but he could not change
 his infirmity of. deafness and dumbness and by that he was detected. He i'm Imediately confessed his guilt and waived extradition. On his way back
 he inquired of the deputy sheriff abo2t 1 the penitentiary and asked him if he l thought there was d good opening for
 a stone cutter there. He was taken
 before Justice Burnett for araigEment soon after he was brought to town. His
 examination will take place today. The court informed him that he might plead | then. Stanley wrote in reply that ne had already pleaded guilty at Fl Paso land, he could not see the need for any other pleading. Stanley says he has int f,, D | for the last ten years. He also says l that this is his first crime and that he
 would not have committed it if he had | been sober.
