Jacksonville, Fla, October 2.--(SpeciaD- James Ward, thought to be Frank Dun can, was arrested in St. Augustine on August % by Sheriff Perry of St. Johns county, acting in conjunction with Chief of Police Jones of Tampa and one of the Tampa city detectives.
 With Ward when arrested was Fred staffod who is held with him now on charge of robbing the United States post office at Leroy, Fla, and the bank at Tavares. Both men are now In jail at Tavares.
 The Tampa police department learned of Ward and Stafford's connection with the Tavares bank robbery and the whereabouts of the two men through let ters mailed to Ella Stafford and Mamie Ward who were at Tampa and claimed to be the wives of the two men.
 From St. Augustine the prisoners were taken to Palatka, the county seat or Putnam county where they were given preliminary trial for breaking into the Crescent City postoffice. There was not sufficient testimony ro hold them In con nection with the robbery and they were taken to Tampa. There was no evidence to connect them with robberies in that part of the state.
 Postoffice Inspector Fred Peer or this city took the case up at this juncture and believed that he had sufficient testi- mony to hold the men in connection with the robbery of the Leroy postoffice in Marion county The prisoners were taken to Ocala and before a United States in spector were given a hearing there and held for conspiracy to rob the mails.
 Fearing that habeas corpus proceedings would be instituted and Ward having stated during the trial in Ocala that he had robbed the bank at Tavares and shot at officers who attempted his arrest, he and Stafford were taken to Tavares

LEXINGTON SPENDS ONE GOOD SUNDAY Blue Law Regime Threatens to
 Become Unpopular 80PERSONS ARE ARRESTED Ice and Milk Wagons Are Declared to be Necessities, and Drivers
 Ordered Released from
 Custody.
8OpERSONs ARE ARRESTED D

Lexington, Ky, October 2.-Lexington today experienced it's first Sunday under the blue law regime. The restrictions were greater than they will be again
 Late this afternoon the cIty solicitor discovered that milk wagons and ice wagons are a necessity and exempt by law Only a few milk wagons att tempted to run, and their drivers were promptly arrested. Most of the popula- ton drank coffee without cream. Fami- lies whose sick children were deprived of milk complained bitterly, and threat ened suits for damages. Ice wagons did not attempt to run. This afternoon the city solicitor decided that both have the right to run, and the drivers under arrest were released. Only about eighty III the city were arrested for violating the Sun day law, although about 200 had an- nounced their intention Saturday of con- tinuing business. They decided when they started to open, and saw the po- lice, they had better Keep closed.
 Drug stores had a right to sell medicine on prescription only, but this did not pay to keep clerks and all drug stores closed. The only places open were hotels, livery stables and newspaper offices. the latter two classes having secured injunc- tions.
 No time had been given citizens to pre- pare for the strict enforcement of Sun day laws, and many families had not laid in groceries and meats. Preparations will be made hereafter. Some of the pastors spoke of the Sunday enforcement today and urged the members of their con- gregations to lay in sufficient supplies or Saturday. The saloon men think the Sun day enforcement will soon become un popular and that they will be allowed to open again. Poolrooms have not de cided whether they will entirely close They ran as usual on Saturday. NJ saloons were open today. They are sait to have made a record-breaking sale ol bottled goods on Saturday.

Severe Around Albuquerque.

Albuquerque. N 4., October 2.-Reports from floods in the Rio Grande valley above and below this city are coming in. The towns of vaience and Los Lentes were completely washed away, and sev- eral hundred families are homeless. The river swung to the east, cut new chan nel, and poured torrent through the two towns. No lives were lost.
 The Barela suburb of this city suffered the most, about fifty houses being des- troyed. Ignacio Gutierrez, 8 eommis- soner of Sandoval county, telephoned that the damage at Los Cordiales and AL ameda, above the city will amount to sev- eral hundred thousanl dollars.
 There is one passenger train from southern California al Gallup, and another from San Francisco at Winslow while the other trains from California are held here. The local officials cannot say when the trains will arrive or depart, and the traffic situation is serious. Many feet of track is reported gone at Ortiz, Ger rillos, Waldo, Thornton and Bernalillo and above and below this city at Rincon Amasillo N. M. and Isleta.

WHERE PANAMA IS DISAPPOINTING.

Panama, the new stman republic is likely to
prove disappointment to the anti-imperialists and
the professional denouncers of 'militarism," says
the Standard Union. Panama had fine opportunity
to play the horrible example, of what "militar-
ISM will lead country toand she hasn't done it.
Her threatened revolution hasn't "reyoluted, and
there's no news for the "yellows" to print about
her. No sooner did President Amador hear of the
alleged plot led by the Generalissimo of the army
than he demanded that officers resignation, and got
it, without shedding a drop of anything but ink.

THE BANNER STATE.

According to the official canvass Of the votes made
in the various counties in this state, the actual pu.
raty which President Roosevelt received in the re.
cent election was 726s3 says the Seattle PostIntel
igencer There were very nearly three votes east for
tn Roosevelt electors for one that east for the
Parker electors in this state.
This majority does not seem so large when it is
compared with the phenomenal majorities given in
Pennsylvania and in some of the older states, but
when it is considered in connection with the size of
the total vote in Washington, the probabilities are
very strong that it will give Washington the record
as the banner Republican state in the union.
So far as the figures have been published there
is not state in the union which has given Roosevelt
such plurality in proportion to vote as has Wash
ington. Pennsylvania which is looked upon as the
banner Republican state of the union, has a voting
population ten times as great that Of Washington
Had Pennsylvania given Roosevelt plurality such
Washington gave him, in proportion to population
Roosevelt would have led Parker some 10000 votes
in that state in the recent election.
Until the official figures of all of the states are
published it will be impossible to tell what percent
age of the voters in each state voted each ticket The
votes east for the various minor parties will have an
important bearing on the matter of percentages The
present indication is that Washington will take the
record this year of having the highest percentage of
Republican voters in its population Of any state in
the union.
