HABFAS CORPUS WRIT
 FOR CONSTABLE RtDWINE
An Application for One May Be Made
 Today if All Other Remedies Fail.

As yesterday was a holiday there were naturally no developments in the case of Constable eLe Redwine who is constructively in jail under a sentence of thirty days fer extOrtion. As a matter of fact he has not occupied a cell but has been in the custody of the sheriff and his deputies. That is a practice often followed in the case of prisoners of whose escape there is no apprehension.
 It has been reported that the con- stable was allowed to go about the street unattended and Assistant Dis trict Attorney Bullard called at the sheriff's office and said that the law contemplated that a prisoner at large was a fugitive from justice and sub ject to arrest on the charge of having escaped from jail
 It was explained that the constable had not been out of the custody of the officers but that one of them had attended him the night before when he wanted to go down the street for supper. The constable told MT. Bullard that he did not like the fare the China man served to the prisoners and he jokingly remined the assistant district attorney of the time when Justice Robertson had ordered him to jail for contempt of court in dismissing a case which the justice thought ought to be procesuted when the assistant district attorney thought otherwise. The con- stable asked him if he would have liked then to eat the grub which the Chinaman served.
 If Governor Kibbey should this morning deny the petition for a par don, that is take no action at alT on the petition, move for a writ of habeas corpus will probably be taken. The constable yesterday arranged with Attorney Frank Cox to take charge of the matter and has also secured the services of two other attorneys.
 The application for the writ will be based on the ground that though the applicant had pleaded guilty to the charge of extortion. he believed at the time that his offense was a technical

As the foot did not improve, you can readily imagine how I felt 1 was simply disgusted and tired of life. I stood this pain, which was dreadful, for six months, and during this time was not able to wear shoe and not able to work.
 "Some one spoke to me about Cuti- cura. The consequences were l bought a set of the Cuticura Remedies of one of my friends who was drug gist, and the praise that l gave after the second application Is beyond description !; it seemed a miracle, for the Cuticura Remedies took effect immediately. I washed the foot with the Cuticurs Soap before applying the Ointment and I took the Resolvent at the same time. After two weeks treat ment my foot was healed completely. People who had seen my foot during my illness and who have seen it since the cure, can hardly believe their own eyes,"

MOVED THE CATTLE.

The task of branding nine hundred head of range cattle which has been in progress here for the past three days was completed yesterday and that part belonging to Cook and Gib- son during the day was started to- ward the range on New river. The other half belonging to Criswell was started out in the afternoon for the range east of here. Considering the number of men at work and the num- Der of cattle branded as well of the method employed. it is almost remar- kable that not a man was hurt or q horse injured in any way.
