SALClDO IN CUSTODY an
 nouncement made a few days ago that
 Abram Salcido had been arrested in
 Douglas by the immigration officers
 and would be held for examination in
 the belief that he should be deported
 was premature. Though his arrest
 had been ordered. it had not yet been
 a accomplished. United States District
 Attorney Alexander yesterday how
 ever. received word that Salcido is
 now in custody. Salcido has served a
 term in Yuma prison for participation
 il the MorenCi riots. is said to have
 been implicated in the Cananea riots
 and is more recently accused of str
 ring up trouble for the Mexican gov
 ernment. while residing in Douglas.
 He is said to be an alien and his char
 acter is such that it is believed he
 will come under that section of the i'm
 migration law which refuses citizen
 ship to undcrirable persons.
 CUTTING THE CORNER-Drivers
 in this day and age of the world have an insane habit of cutting off corners,
 even where there is nothing to be gained by it. At the northwest corner
 of the intersection of Fourth ard Washington streets an effort has been
 made both by the owner of abuttng property and by the police to keep drivers from passing across the side walk within the property lme. 4 big post stands at the corner, and the pO- lice have posted all manner of signs upon it, but the drivers disregard it and continue to cut up the sidewalk shamefully in an effort to save the ex- tra two or three feet required to go around the post. and in doing so take | chances on colIiding with or running over pedestrians. A few arrests of ! careless drivers might not be a bad thing, as it is apparent nothing else will stop them, unless it be a barb wire fence across the sidewalk
 O'CONNOR'S HARD LUCK-Tho dispatch yesterday announcing that a man supposed to be Banker Stensland had been captured in Tangier was good news to everybody except James O'COnnor, formerly of Phoenix, now o1 | Douglas. and at present here on a visit | Mir. O'COnnOr is detective by p.Ofes- sion. though he makes his living con l tracting and laying brick. But that don't interfere with his profession, foI he can keep his eyes and ears Oper while he is working. Some day he ex- i poets to capture a high-priced fugi- | mcut with Marshal Kinney, whereby i each will share in any fancy arrests 1 the other may make. When MT. O'COn- | nor came here a few days ago he told ! MT. Kinney that be was certain tha ! Stensland was hanging around Doug | las. and when the time got Iipe ht would pinch him and divide the pro- | cecds. He tried to get the marshal {, l advance a meal ticket on the strengtI of the prospect, but Mr. Kinney Wa: l mot just born yesterday. Evidently z i mistake has been made by either MT l O'COnnor or the Tangier officers.
