Sensational Capture.
At o'clock this afternoon a negro
porter in the hotel took a pitcher of
Ice water to the room. This was the
opportunity the police were waiting
for, as they desired to enter the room
without violence. The counterfeiter
was too quick for them, however, and
slammed the door just as the two Of
ficers, Chief McMillin and Lieutenant
Kennedy, reached the door.
AS quick as a cat, Lieutenant Ken
nedy boosted the chief to the tran
som. Not knowing but what he would
have his head shot off for his pains,
the chief thrust it within the tran
som and covered" the counterfeiter.
The man saw that the game was up

the hands of Lieutenant Kennedy. He
threw up his hands and surrendered.

Within the room which was sick

and the oil stove burning on the

about on the floor. brand new and
ready for circulation. Three other
dollars were cooling in a preparation
under the faucet at the wash stand
and metal and tools yere on all
sides.
There were also some twenty-five
dyes for making dollars. These dyes
were prepared from plaster similar
to that used by physicians in making
casts. The plaster was secured at To-
cal drug stores.
How He Made Them.
His method of manufacturing mon
ey was crude. He prepared a combi-
nation of tin, lead, silver and a hard
ening substance. This metal he melt
ed over a small alcohol lamp AMI
poured it upon the dies. 1t took two
dies to make one dollar. Each die
produced the face of one side of
each dollar. With a fine saw, files
and knives, the counterfeiter then re-
duced the two halves to the proper
thickness and welded them together,
cleverly concealing the thin line
which showed where the metal join
ed.
About $50 Per Day.
At the rate he had worked dur
ing the afternoon the police watched
him, ne could produce about twenty
counterfeit dollars a day, which is
considered fairly good wages.
The poll ,e secured all the eoun-
terfeit coir on hand, tools, metals,
acids and her requisites.
In the rom besides a bed table,
dresser and wash stand, was a large
trunk, three or four medicine cases
and large grip.

IRRIGATION WORK
DELAYED BY FIRE

Phoenix, Ariz., July 2.-Word was
received this morning from Roosevelt,
OF the burning of the power house
owned by Contractor O'Rourke, who
Is engaged in the construction OF the
Roosevelt storage dam.
The loss is estimated at $4,000.
The burning of the house released
the big cable employed in carrying
rock, cement and machinery to the
dam site, and the most serious fea-
ture of the fire is that work on the
dam will be retarded for a few weeks,
although not stopped entirely.

Attorney General Jackson Clashes With
 Governor Hughes.
 Albany, N r., July 3.-With Gov ernor Hughes issuing his proclamation for the legislature to convene Monday evening to consider reapportionment Attorney General Jackson caused a sensation by giving to the newspapers copies of an opinion he had prepared at the request of Secretary of State Whalen directing him to call an cleo ton of senators this fall under the old reapportionment made by the consti- tutional convention in 1894.
 The constitution of this state pro- vides that senators shall be elected at the same time as the governor and the election of senators proposed by the attorney general would be only for the remaining year of the full term.
 The opinion has caused much specu- lation here. 1t marks the first open clash between the governor and the Democratic state officials who were elected with him last November. If the opinion had been intended for the purpose of making trouble it could not possibly have been sprung at more opportune time than on the eve of the session.

Professor Hart of Lafayette College
 Denounces Christian Science.
 Easton, Pa., July 3.-Unhappy fami- ly relations which have been known to exist in the home of Professor Edward Hart, the distinguished chemist of the Lafayette college faculty, resulted in Mrs. Hart leaving to take up her abode in Philadelphia with her two sons, Richard and Francis, and her daughter, Marion.
 Professor Hart has not lived at his residence for some time and is now left alone. The separation of the mem bers of the family is generally ascrib- ed to differences over Christian Sci ence, and the cause dates back to the illness of Norman Hart, the eldest son of Professor and Mrs. Hart, a student at Lafayette, who died from typhoid pneumonia about five years ago. Mrs. Hart is a devout believer in Chris tian Science, while her husband de- nounces it.
