News reports from Philadelphia
state that William H. Latimer, who
has been a fugitive from Justice, has
surrendered after having travelled
through England, France and Canada.
Finally, weary of wandering, he gave
himself up. The life of the fugitive
from justice is not a happy one. He
may have freedom, but it is that of
the hunted animal, ever fearful OF the
pursuer. Rest and peace are not for
him. He must be on the move. alert,
suspicious; free, perhaps, but without
the peace or happiness which attends
the freedom of the man who has not
committed a crime Even the fugitive
who finds safety in other lands is not
happy. AS the days pass he becomes
more conscious of the brand upon him
and feels himself an exile from his
home land. He may long for home
but he dares not return and his life
is one of unrest and fraught with TN
happiness He knows himself the
human derelict upon an inhospitable
shore. 1t is not surprising that such
men in utter WEAKNESS of wandering
or heart sick of the fugtive's exist
ence sometimes returns of their own
accord to pay the penalty. The love
OF home and the homeland is strong
in the human breast and the fugitive
from justice who finds safety on alien
shores learns that one Of the bitterest
consequences of his misdeeds lies in
this growing longing for the home
from which he has made himself an
exile 1t pays in more ways than

many cases the residents along pro-
posed routes have made improve
ments that enable them to obtain
rural free delivery service, but some
times the efforts to keep up the roads
are relaxed But the government has
decided that unless the roads travelled
by the carrier are properly maintained
the service will be withdrawn. The
postofTice department now calls on
the carriers for reports on the roads
and will stop the service where the
highways in question are bad
The 35,913 rural delivery carriers
now employed cover s63,363 miles
daily. and it is unreasonable to ex-
pect them to contend with neglected
roads. or to work for communities
lacking the enterprise to keep its COM
mon highways in decent shape Wher-
ever a route is discontinued the in
habitants themselves will be TO blame
for it, for if alive to their own interest
and their duty to the public they
would give their roads vigorous and
constant attention. The idea that a
route once authorized is necessarily
permanent is a mistake Advice on
the best road methods is supplied by
the agricultural department., and a
neighborhood that loses its rural de-
livery must itself bear the discredit
for so unpleasant and humiliating an
event.

Ell PASO, Tex, March 21.-With fir
ing of volleys by federal troops and
music of bands, three days celebra-
ton Of the one-hundredth anniversary
of the birth of Benito Juarez began at
daybreak in Mexico.
Throughout all the public schools of
Mexico there was exercises in honor
of Juarez who drove Macmillan from
Mexico, but Ell Paso school children
contributed the most novel feature.
In a distinctively American tribute
to a Mexican hero the children, nearly
5000 strong, marched over the river to
Ciudad Juarez.
Accompanying the children were
members of the city council, the direc-
torate of the chamber of commerce and
members of public bodies.
At the Plaza de Consticion in Juarez
wreaths were piled upon the statue of
Juarez, and commemorative addresses
delivered.
The American children carried flags
of both countries and sang national
anthems of the two republics. The
army band from Fort Bliss accom-
panied the procession by special per-
mission of the secretary of war.

Frank (Shorty) Smith, accused by A.
rifiemen hidden in Wingate pass who
fired on the Walter Scott party, wound
ing Warner Scott, has proved an alibi,
and today at 400 was released from
custody.
He then was closeted for some time
with Prosecuting Attorney sprecher, to
whom he made q lengthy statement, in
volving others in crimes and INSIDE
meanors on the desert. The district
attorney ordered. this document kept
secret for legal reasons, but more par
ticularly because Smith feared he
would be assassinated if it became
public.
Smith departed tonight for home at
Daggett, promising to quickly answer
any call from the district attorney s
office.

ceived a telegram from Mining Expert
Owen, confirming the statement that
Warner Scott exclaimed when shot:
THAT bullet was intended for owen

letter was following which would

There are those here who do not be-

ST. PETERSBURG. March 21.-The
imperial manifesto and the ukases of
March s, which incorporate in the fun
damental law of the empire the pro-
visions for national assembly in Rus
STA promised in the manifesto last fall,
are disappointing in many respects.
They constitute neither a constitu-
ton nor a bill of rights for the Russian
people. They do create a popular as
sembly but the powers granted to 1t
are so hedged about with restrictions
and conditions that it will be rather a
parliament i'm name than in fact.
Nevertheless, by the terms of the
manifesto the emperor himself is power
less to revoke what he has now given.
This constitutes the great victory
which the people have won. They at
last have an authoritative medium
through which they can make their
voice heard, and it Is in this assembly
probably that the royal historical
struggle against prerogative and priv
ilege will be fought out.
An examination of the documents
show clearly that their purpose has
been to intrench the government at
every point against the assaults Of the
people.

scoTTYs FRIENDS ELATED
Look Upon Smiths Release as Vindi-
cation

I'VE have achieved great victory, u
said Rol King, "Scotty's' personal
manager in Los Angeles.
IF l had control of affairs l would
not have such accusations brought UP
against him. but now 1 can say that
am really glad it happened, because it
has raised 'Scotty' in the opinion of
the people of Los Angeles.
People were prone to believe that
Scott was really guilty when he was
accused, but now they think more of
him than ever. When Shorty Smith
was released at San Bernardino it
showed that he was not guilty and
vindicated him. He was charged with
conspiring with Scott and this vindi-
Gates everyone who was charged.
"I have a man at San Bernardino
who is keeping me in touch with what
takes place there. He has informed me
that their principal witness, st. Clair.
has had trouble with the prosecuting
attorney and that the whole case has
fallen through. l am surprised that the
case should fall fiat as quickly as it has.
Archie Freeman has just returned
from Death Valley and. other desert
places and came in to see me today.
He says that this trouble is an outrage.
When I asked him what they thought
of Scott on the desert he said that the
better class of men thought well of
him and that it was only the hangers
on with whom 'Scotty' would have
nothing to do that are making the big
talk.
Before this affair is through I want
it probed to the bottom. There is moth
ing to conceal that / know Of
Attorney Wideman, representing
himself not only to be in the employ of
Walter Scott but also to be employed
by Marie Smith of st. Louis, sister of
Shorty" Smith, returned from San
Bernardino.
"They are all four flushers," he de-
clared, land you can quote me as say
ing so. AS to my getting kicked out
of a hotel, that is lie"
Wideman declared that st. Clair had
trouble with the prosecuting attorney
and that he left San Bernardino at $50
yesterday morning, but that he did not
come to Los Angeles He also says
that he can produce William Reyes
within ten hours time.
S. M. Mingus, 401 Court street, claims
that he has prospected in the Death
Valley region for years and that he
found "Scotty's" camp, where there
were many spoils such as silverware
and towels from the Angelus hotel
and from various railroads. He stated
his willingness to make an affidavit
to this.
In regard to this statement "Scotty''
wired last night that Mingus was an
other man who was trying to get some
cheap notoriety He also asked about
his brother Warner and said that he
was allowing him SIS month as salary.

Special TO The Herald.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 21.-Great
surprise was caused here today by the
filing of suit late this afternoon by
Mrs. Henry e. Huntington against her
husband, the Los Angeles traction mag
nate, for divorce on the ground of
desertion.
w. C. Van Fleet, special counsel for
the Southern Pacific company, APP
peared as her attorney and the case
was set for tomorrow morning at $3.50
in Judge Graham's court.
1t is understood that no contest will
be made and that the divorce will be
granted within thirty minutes.
Attorneys say that all property ar
rangements have been made.
Although it was well known that
Henry E. Huntington had spent the
greater part of the time in the south
for the last six years, while Mrs. Hunt
ington had continued to reside at the
Jackson street house in this city, yet
the original cause of the estrangement
has always remained a mystery and
considerable surprise was expressed at
Mrs. Huntington's suit.
Family is Aware
1t was intended that the divorce
should be a very quiet one. Only the
immediate members of the family were
aware that the day had been set, and
every effort was made to avoid pub
licity of the fact that Mrs. Mary A..
Huntington had brought suit in the
superior court against the nephew of
Coils P. Huntington for divorce and
such other equitable relief as the court
might see fit to grant.
Peter F. Dunno, who represented Mr..
Huntington, and w. c.. Van Fleet, who
is Mrs. Huntington's legal adviser,
were busy all day making the preliin-
mary arrangements and laying the
plans to avoid any unpleasant noto-
riety.
Failed to Suppress
Together they called on Judge Graham
and interviewed the county clerk to
see if they could not keep the copy
of the complaint from being seen by
too inuuisitive eyes, but their attempt
was without success.
Among those who knew that d.
yorce would be the outcome of the re-
lations that have existed between Mr..
Huntington and his wife for the last
six years it was taken for granted that
he would be the plaintiff in the suit
when it was brought.
1t was his interests in the electric
roads around Los Angeles which called
Mr.. Huntington to the south after he
left the management of the Market
street railroad and withdrew from the
directorate of the Southern Pacific
and it is said that at several times
