LONG CHASE AFTER THIEvE.
American Officers Follow Men Into
 Mexico and Captured One.


 Manuel Aguilar is the name of a Mexican horsethief of whom officers on the Arizona border never expect to hear again. He waa captured by American officers and turned over to the Mexican authorities at Imuris, Sonora, and as he, with others, committed depredations both in Mexico and Arizona 1t is not unlikely that he will become a target for a squad of Hurdles be- fore many days.
 Manuel made the mistake of his life, and perhaps the last one he will ever have occasion to make, when, with two paisanos, he stole five head of horses and two mules from the vicinity of Douglas at a time when Lieutenant of Rangers J. j. Brooks, Ranger J. c. Brooks and Deputy Sheriff Young Davis were all in town and just aching IoT long, lIVelV chase.
 To make matters worse for the abigeos, the two mules belonged to MT. Davis and he needed them in his business.
 The thieves had good start, but the pursuers tracked them, finding every place where the ladrones stopped signs of other offences against law-the killing of beef Down in Sonora the out law bunch disbanded, as the chase was getting hot and near Imuris the Americans finally captured Aguilar and recovered three horses and one Of the mules.
 As the men had killed beef on the Mexican ranges as well as on this side the prisoner was turned over to Colonel Kosterlitzky's men at Imuris and will there De pun- ished for cattle stealing. Had he been captured in Arizona he would probably serve a few years at Yuma for the crime, but being now in the hands of his countrymen. the American officers anticipate no future trouble from Manuel Agui- lar.
 The rangers and the deputy sheriff arrived in Nogales yester- day evening, after six days of hard riding, covering 450 miles. From here they went to Douglas last night by train, leaving their horses here in charge of Ranger Beatty.
 Lieut.. Brooks is spoken of as the probable successor of Captain Ryn- ming, who is to be made warden of the territorial penitentiary, vice Warden Ben Daniels. who was ap- pointed United States Marshall by President Roosevelt few days ago.

"Gentlemen," said the judge, re-

smile, "the prisoner says be is guilty.

Then after an effective pause, the
Judge added: There is one thing

We say with regret the indications
all point, as far as our information
goes, to a failure Of the Cotton
Growers association to accomplish
that which it proposed to do-the
holding of the unremained sold COT
ton of the present crop and the re-
duction of the cotton acreage for the
coming crop. It maybe, however,
that the seeds have just been sown
which, with judicious cultivation,
will yet spring up and bring forth
good fruit to the benefit of the pro-
ducer. We trust that this will prove
the case.

answered them and then asked:

Why Popcorn Pops.

When the grains Of maize or In
dian corn are gently roasted they
burst with a pop and turn inside
out. They are then known as pop
corn.
This popping is due to the evap-
oration of the oil contained in the
kernel. Ordinary wheat does not
pop 30 readily, because the outer
portion of the kernel is more porous,
and thus permits the escape of the
oil as it evaporates. In the case of
popcorn great pressure is develop
ed in the kernel by the confined oil,
which is present in greater quantity,
so that the kernel is suddenly ex-
ploded and reversed.

WHY Suffer from Rheumatism:

why Su1er from &1e1matism?
Why suffer from rheumatism when one
application Of Chamberlains Pain Balm
will relieve the pain? The quick relief
which this liniment affords makes rest and

many times it's cost. Many who have
used it hoping only for short relief from
suffering have been happily surprised to
find that after awhile the relief became
permanent. Mrs. '. 81. Leggett. of Yum

WHY.

When shadows gather round US
And clouds overspread our sky,
How often our faith will falter
And our lips will murmer, Why?.
Though we try to be submissive
As we watch our fond hope die,
Though we close our heart we will
ask, Why?
Why are some lives full of gladness?
Why are others dark and drear?
Why could not each hour have its
pleasure
AS we journey onward here?
But when life seems such failure,
When each effort seems in vain,
Once again the question rises
Though we would refrain,
Why must my life be so joyless?
Why must / forever fail?
But even now the weary question
Soundeth like a weary wall.
And when the shadows gather thick
est
1t is then we long to fly
Somewhere far beyond this darkness
Where that vexing question, Why,
Does not mar the peace and quiet
OF this land we hope to find,
And our eyes will not turn backward
TO the sorrows left behind.
When the weary feet have rested,
When the lips have ceased to sigh,
When the heart is no longer aching,
Then we will cease to murmur, Why.
