DEATH TO FREE
LIFE PRISONER
Jesus Ramos, Ninety.nine-year Man.,
In the Penitentiary For Muir
der, Fatally III.

Sentenced to ninety-nine years in
the territorial penitentiary for the
murder of man in Grant County,
Jesus Ramos will end his captivity in
death. Last night he became des--
perately Ill and the prison surgeon,
Dr.. J. A. Massie, made a quick trip
to the penifentiary. He ordered the
man placed in the hospital ward and
gave 1t as his opinion that he could
not get well because his ailment is
chronic and of long standing. Ramos
Is known as convict No. 1441 and
arrived at the prison May 10, 1901.
Although realizing that he would in
all probability never leave the pris-
on walls until he was carried out, cold
in death, Ramos has been a model
prisoner and has never made an at
tempt to escape. He knows that death
will soon release him from the power
of the law, and is apparently satisfied
that vt should be so.
