TRTPLETT MAKES MISTAKE
Effort to Elude a Sleuth Results in His
Being Arrested.
HOW LAND FRAUD PROMOTER WAS TAKEN
Chased from Nebraska 10 Chihuahu
and Now ON His Way Back
TO Omaha to stand
Trial.
sAS

The intelligence of the arrest OF Aquilla
Triplett at Ell Paso, Tex. Saturday was re-
ceived Sunday by Special District Attorney
Rush and the secret service officials here
with considerable pleasure The arrest was
accomplished through the efforts OF United
States Secret Service Oficer Robert d.
Hobbs, who has been on THpletts trail for
three or four months.
Triplett was wanted for alleged suborna-
ton of perjury in the matter of securing
host of fraudulent land filings in the
Alliance CNeb) land district. He had
worked in collision with Ami Todd now
under $4,000 bonds on a similar charge at
Denver. Todd is a former resident Of
Plattsmouth and it is stated by the secret
service officials that he and Triplett have
been doing a wholesale business in this line
for several years, their work extending all
over the cattle country. At the time of
Todds arrest warrant was also issued
, for the arrest OF Triplett as the principal in
the land fraud cases, but he fed the coun-
try and finally was located in Chihuahua
Mex, and all efforts to coax him across
the line were unavailing.

r. ID, Hobbs, who is regarded as one Of
| the best men I'm the secret service. was
sent to FL Paso to endeavor to secure the
arrest OF Triplett, and he finally located
him in the Mexican state, and stayed right
there with him. Triplett knew what Hobbs
was after, but being safe from extradition
on the charge OF subornation OF perjury, did
not try to dodge Hobbs. Hobbs kept him
Swallowed and finally IL was decided TO

against him, which was filed here in Omaha,

lose himself from Hobbs. He left there at

Again Surges in the Little City.

Harbor improvements which are now
being erected for the street railway
company at the end of the trolley line
in Excelsior give visitors from the
city ample material for interesting o.
servation. For the past two weeks
work has been rushed, as much better
progress can be made while the ice
is on the lake. It is a busy place and
the great amount of piling, lumber and
logs, with a busy army Of workmen
about, are just faint suggestion
rush Of the summer commences, and
when everything is finished and in
use.
The slips for the boats are built as
fast as possible and already two are
completed. The process of driving the
pilings thru the ice is interesting and
many city people find it amusing
enough to make trip to the lake to
watch the work. There is nothing in
carried out on more imposing lines and
which requires the building of more
substantial piece Of marine. architec-
ture than the harbor, with it's landing
for the use of the small army Of boats
to be used next summer.

"Wets and drys' at Excelsior will
clinch in their periodical struggle on
March 10, when the village voters will
elect mayor. The issue is eternal in
the lake hamlet. While no official
slate has been made up, it is generally
conceded that L. F: Sampson, present
! mayor; Charles Chiefly and Albert Ly-
man will be candidates.
Mr.. Sampson, when asked about the
possibilities Of his serving another
year, evinced no desire to accept. The
duties of the mayor Of Excelsior are
