Valparaiso, the destruction Of
which bids fair to rival In horror
the recent disaster Mt San Fran

south Americas western coast
that San Francisco held on the
northern continent.
with a population of over 15O,-
900 ft ~ the capital of Chile and
that republics most important sea-
port, as well ms n center of trade
for n large part of southwestern
South America.
Before this disaster It had been
hoped that with the completion of
the Panama canal and the Trans
Andfne railway the prosperity Of
this city, lying directly in the path
of the fnter-cOntinental commerce
and travel, was assured. with the
coming of the railway the city
would also have taken it's place MS
European supplies of all kinds.
Valparaiso owes much of it's
rapid advance in the race with its
sister cities to fhe progressive
spirit that has characterized its
every move.
tr0duce che telegraph lines into
the country, she was the first OF (
the southern cities TO see street
cars running on her streets; she
led the way in laying huge aque-
ducts to convey her vvnter supply;
she was the first South American
city to adopt gas. And in 1850, by
the construction of large floating
docks, the city placed herself in n
position to repair vessels of large
tonnage. which at once began to (
stop there for repairs.
And even in the drainage prob
lem, often so disastrOusly neg (
Iecfed in Latin-American cities,
the city has sustained her reputa- (
tfOn for up-to-dnte progressive (
ness. The Separate system" was (
installed to meet the demand for {
n suitable drainage system. This (
consists of carrying or the rain (
water directly to the sea by huge
subterranean drains. while the
sewage water. after being col
Iected in a pool at n low point, is (
raised into conduit which car
ries 1t far ont into the hay.
The city Is the headquarters of (
the Chilean navy. and IL further
defended by modern lOng-range (
gums.
Its public institutions rank
favOrably with those of any other
city on the continent. Ware
houses, n wharf. seven national
banks Gas well as several foreign
and savings banks). a naval acad-
emy. a museum of natural history,
n Victoria theater. and several fine
monuments serve to give an air of
refinement to the city. as well as
to give evidence of it's financial
prosperity and progress.

stackpoIe Is Strong

Stackpoie, having spent part of his
life at hard work in the penitentiary
and the rest hard work an the open air,
has a rugged strength which would be
terrible in an encounter, and would
probably be fatal to Harrington in case
the officer could not have gotten his
revolver into play But all the same, as
with the thousands of other prisoners
handled during his career, Harrington
has come through the trial with new
honors added to his long list.
Twice reports were made to the eff
feet that Stackpole had attempted to
escape, but both were unfounded. The
first time Stackpole was obeying in
structions and was advancing toward
the bailiff to receive the handcuffs
when some people thought he was try
ing to leave the court room.
The second time was yesterday. At
the noon hour Stackpole was told to
put on his hat and march toward the
side entrance to the court room. He
managed to advance several feet and
Deputy Harrington in keeping up with
him pushed another man out of the
way and some of the spectators i'm
agined that Stackpole was trying to
leave the court room, when the truth
of the matter was that Harrington was
three feet behind his prisoner all the

Enigma to Deputy


In speaking of his experience with
Stackpole yesterday Harrington said:
II have handled hundreds of prison
ers in my time, but never one like
Stackpole He is one of the queerest
men / ever met. With other men I
have known them in my own way
within an hour after 1 had first met
them and have known just how to
treat them, but as for Stackpole
must confess that / am as far away
from him and his confidence now as
| was the first time I ever saw him.
"The boy is unusually bright and
cunning. He never says much, which
is never a good sign with prisoner.
When he is with me every action
says that he wants to do what is right
by me- so lone as l am boss and so
long as he knows that: but let him see
chance where he has the best of II
for Just moment and II would be
good-night for me. / would have a
desperate fight with him and II | did
not reach my gun 1t might go hard with
me.
EVERY day I have been compelled
to face crowds with him. In every
crowd he has had friends. have
sneaked him down side ways and
crowds and have watched him care
fully when l handcuffed him,
Makes Strange Request
"On the day before the last day of
argument Stackpole asked to be per-
mitted TO sit over close to the jury box.
He is the first prisoner that / ever
heard make that request. consented,
but / didn't at first understand his
motives, for straight before him was

formances but who became like chill
dren under the careful watch of Her
rington. But Harrington is not as
young as he once vas, and although he
still possesses the skill and cunning of
his youth his activity is not such as to
handle daily the petty squabbles and
slug tests which often occur in Jail and
which can only be put down by hearty
beating to the disturbers with much
danger and no glory to the officer.
SO he spends his time marching the
criminals from tie county Jail to de-
partment 1, the criminal department of
the superior court, and with watching
them while they are being tried.
The Chance
The prime moment for a prisoners
dash for liberty is after he is being led
back to jail after having been SEN
fenced. At that moment his animal
rage is uppermost, and he is ready to
risk death to escape the dark forbid
ding walls of a penltentiary. With a
murder prisoner the one thought of
escape is always uppermost in his mind
and he will take any chance at all.
SO Stackpole, admitted to be one Of
the cleverest criminals Of the age, was
given over to the charge of the deputy
sheriff, and not once during the whole
Irldl QlQ Lne accused man leave lne
side of the officer.
Added to the unusual cunning and
scheming faculties of Stackpole was his
knowledge of officers and their ways.
Ever since he YVES boy Stackpole has
had to do with officers of the law, and
they we've his worst enemies.
Twice he had served long terms in
state penitentiaries, and he became a
student of officers. watching them like
hawk and planning ways to get away
from them.
