MIN HIDING IN AMBUSH
FIfRD ON A NEGRO.
Sensational Case Comes
From 18th, District.

Judge Charles R. Crisp on yester-
day required bond of $500 of John
Walker, an Industrious negro living
in the country here, upon concealed
weapon charge, after the charge Of
taking matter from a mail box failed
to hold good
Bond was promptly given and
Walker released from custody.
Back of the charge is a somewhat
sensational case reported from the
Fifteenth district, with which Walker
had nothing to do beyond obeying an
errand.
The negro was sent at night by a
white man to a mail box with in
structions to bring him note con-
tanned therein, or which ne expected
would be there. This was Walkers
entire connection with the affair, it
seems.
While at the box the negro was
fired upon by several men concealed
near the place, but was not struck
by the bullets. Walker fed the
scene, but was soon overhauled by the
posse in pursuit.
To his captors he stated the reason
of his presence at the box, and by
whom, and for what purpose he was
sent there.
1t was expected by the men in
waiting that someone would come
at an appointed hour to take from
the box a letter supposed to have been
written by young lady, in reply to
one sent her recently. Hence their
presence upon the scene.
The affair has created quite a SEN
sation in the neighborhood.

CHIEF FEAGIN is GOING
TO bring. BACK AUSTIN
Negro COnfesseS TO Bur
gIery In Americas.

A negro giving his name as John
Austin has confessed to Chief of
Police Shackleford of Newman that it
was he who burglarized the Central
Railway ticket office in Americas last
Wednesday, wherein forty dollars were
lifted from the till.
Chief of Police Feagin had wire
yesterday to this effect.
Chief Shackleford, who arrested
Austin at Chief Feagins instance,
states that he has made a full confess
sion of the robbery here, duplicating
none other with him.
During the absence of the night
ticket agent from his office shortly
before daylight Wednesday, the Office
was entered by a thief who worked
the combination to the cash drawer
and stole nearly all the money con-
tanned therein.
Forty dollars in bills and silver
were carried away, the thief declin-
ing to take the handful of small
change in the till.
While not informed of the robbery
until near noon next day Chief Fea-
gin and the police went to work, and
with the result that the negro, Civ
ing his name as John Austin, was
caught at Newman Chief Feagin went
there today for the negro
This is the second robbery in
recent years of the depot Office here,
and in each instance the police got
the culprit

BLOW AT THE MILITARY.

Georgia is proud of her military
achievements and of her military
forces, in the number of which she
leads the Southern States. With the
,history of a hundred years of honor
able record to their credit, these COM
panies have done much to foster To-
cal and national pride.
But with the advent of the DICK
bill shadow has fallen athwart the
sky. Regulations are too rigid
to suit the members and as con-
sequence a number of companies have
either disbanded or will maintain an
independent organization, the Volun-
teer Guards of Savannah, being
notable instance of the last named.
One difficulty is that when com
panies are ordered into camp no ex-
cuse will be tolerated except that or
sickness. Young men in the employ
of others are forced to respond even
at the cost of their positions, or be
liable to trial for disobedience to
orders. In many cases the enforced
absence of clerks at perhaps very
busy season of the year makes the
employers sore" and in some cases
the members have lost their positions
In others they have been warned that
another vacation taken regardless of
the interests of the employers will
result in dismissal.
Another difficulty is found in re-
cruiting the companies up to the
full strength, without which they can
not share in the advantages of re-
ceiving supplies and maintenance
from the National government. Then
the taking away of all distinctive
uniform and substituting the drab
and blue for all companies has chill
ed the pride of some of the compan-
les whose uniform was in itself
badge of distinction.
Local military companies work good
results in many ways, but when the
individuality is lost and onerous bur
dens are imposed, it becomes very
much of question whether or not
the game is worth the candle. With
out governmental aid, from state or
national, in providing uniforms and
equipment, very few companies could
afford to exist. Hence the Dick Bill
has struck a very severe blow at the
military establishment of Georgia.
Its mischievous effects were surely
not foreseen when it's passage was
permitted without emphatic protest
from Georgia's congressman.

Cinnamon as sailors will be the
policy of vessels which are engaged
in the Central American fruit trade
and which now employ Norwegians.
The Norwegian captains are dis
pleased with their countrymen on
account of their unreliability and
intemperance. The supply of China
men is practically unlimited and it
is gratifying to know that new uses
are being found for the Chink. Be-
fore China fully awakens, the world
may find employment for its millions
by gradually absorbing a portion of
them into industrial occupations. Any
sudden loosing of the flood gates
would swamp the labor market from
stevedores to cotton hands.

Ny Dear MISREPRESENTATION letter
.of September 18th reached me this
morning. | was very sorry indeed
that | did not get to see you as |
passed through Albuquerque.
| know OF nothing which is of
greater Importance to Albuquerque
and the territory of New Mexico as a
whole, tina nthe meeting Of the Ma
tional Irrigation congress at Albu-
querque in 1908.
1t will bring together in your ter
ritory and city men of Importance
from all over this country, and will
afford an opportunity such as you
have never before had for bringing to
their attention the wonderful oppor-
tunities wour territory presents for
development. which opportunities
have been so long overlooked ana
neglected.
Not only the city Of Albuquerque.
but the territory as a whole. should
do everything they can to make this
coming congress a success. So far as
your hotel facilities are concerned. 1
would say that the people of your
city vii have to throw open their res-
licences to take care of the delegates.
Sacramento had to do the same, and
so has any other town Of medium size
that has secured the congress i'm the
past.
/ hope to bein New Mexico between
and the first of October. and
shall take occasion to visit Albuquer-
que at that time.
Very truly yours,
