 HE WAS THE RIGHT MAN | Ranger Holmes came to town yester- day after Frank White or Francisco Blanco, who had been arrested for stealing a horse near Roosevelt. White had denied his name and said that a
 great mistake mad been made in his arrest. He claimed the name of Gar cia and stuck to it. But on the arriv- al of the ranger he immediately identi- fled White as White. The horse which he had stolen was found in his poses sion at the time of his arrest. It was the property of an Indian and was turned over to the Indian, wlO had been sent after it.
 A RUSH FOR SCHOOL MONEY- 1 There was something of a jam at the office of the county treasurer yester- day evening when the distribution of
 the second apportionment of school money began. Most of those who call
 ed were teachers. Those who were not paid yesterday may call today. This apportiOnment eXhausts seventy-five per cent of the entire appropriation for the schools of the county as against forty-eight per cent at this time last
 year. This fact is made known for the

They need not be palatial nor can they be too good. All kinds of rooms are wanted and the more the better.

 TOMS WEAKNESS-It seems as though Tom Brown can't have any thing to do with whisky. without get ting into trouble. Sometime ago he was sent to jail for ninety days for selling liquor to an Indian, being re- leased from durance on Thursday He washed down his first taste of liberty with a drink of whiskey. The mixture was so good he kept up the treatment until the day police took him in A five dollar bail bond was deposited but Brown failed to appear for trial yes terday and Recorder Thomas brushed the money into the city treasury There was also one man before, the re- cOrder yesterday on the charge of vagrancy but he hardly looked the part.
