DARING ROBBERY.
Sonora News Company Victim at
 Early Hour This Morning.

Early Hour This Morning.
 This morning at five o'clock thieves shattered the large plate glass in the iewelry show window of the Sonora News Company on Morley avenue, and had secured about one hundred dollars worth of iewelry, when they were heard by the young man who sleeps Tn the rear of the store and hastily made their escape. Owing to the failure of all electric lights early in the night, and consequent darkness and deserted condition of the streets at the time, the robbers evidently expected to get inside and make a rich haul, but were frightened by hearing the young man come toward the front and the opening of several doors on the street and took what they could reach through the window and fled.

Strange Duel Between General !
Hunkins and Colonel Reckling. 3
Iorlginall

IOriginall
Among the generals Of the civil war
there were those who had received a
military education and those who won
their promotion from a natural fitness
for command and politicians. General
Hunkins belonged to the latter class.
From his point of view the war was a
sort Of preliminary political contest
among certain men as to which should
eventually return to their homes with
sufficient eclat to be nominated for
some fat Office. Having during the
early formation of the army been as
signed the command of division, he
first turned his attention to keeping in
due subsection all interiors who might
dim his own lrster by distinguishing
themselves The man he most dreaded
was young Colonel Reckling, who had
entered the army from civil life, but a
restless, pushing, dashing fellow and
born soldier.
Two armies were confronting each
other. Hunkins' division was on tho
right, Colonel Reckling's brigade on the
extreme tip. The enemy resolved to
turn the Union right flank and hurled a
whole division against Reckling's bri-
gade ReckIing held his position long
enough for Hunkins to send him re-en-
forcements, but Hunkins did nothing
4 Of the kind. He watched the fighting
from an eminence and saw the rem
nant Of Recklings brigade driven like
dust before hurricane. The Union
army fell back to stronger position,
When quiet was restored Hunklns rode.
up to Reckling and reprimanded him,
for not holding his position, implying
cowardIce.
There is little or no redress In the ar
my against such an imputation by
superior officer, certainly not In face
OF an enemy. One morning shortly
after daylight Colonel Reckling rode
mp to his commanders headquarters
and, rousing the general, said:
Il think the enemy is meditating an
important move. II you viii ride out
with me to the picket line I'll show you
what mean"
Hunkins proposed to send his chief
Of staff but Reckllng insisted that he
should see for himself. So the gen
eral called his escort, and the two off,
GERS rode to the picket line.
"We must go farther" said Reckling.
! II would suggest that the escort re-
main here SO as not TO draw the fire."
'But"- said the general, showing ex-
IRENE reluctance to go on.
"Generalv' exclaimed Reckling In
feigned surprise.
The general dare not refuse with
twenty cavalrymen looking on. He
rode with his inferior a few hundred
yards to low fence, over which Reck-
ling jumped his horse. Hunkins, know
ing the eyes Of the escort were upon
him, dare not refuse to follow. He
was about to protest against this ap-
proach to the enemy's rifles as unnec-

ARRESTED AND RELEASED.
President Finley of the Southern Rail-
way in the Tolls.

10y - e%4~ ~~tN~s
Raleigh, n. G., July 2o.-Suiting his
action to the word or Gov. Glenn, who
Friday announced that railroad officials
"higher up" should be reached, Police
Justice Reynolds at Asheville, n. C.
issued warrants simultaneously for the
arrest of President Finley Of the South
ern railway, and for Ticket Agent viii
son. MFR. Finley was arrested early in
the forenoon. and was released on ha-
beas corpus proceedings early in the
afternoon, while the ticket agent, who
was taken from his post of duty, thus
compelling numerous passengers to
board trains without tickets. was ar
raigned in the police court in the fore.
noon.
Attorneys for the Southern signified
their willingness to proceed with his
trial, but Judge Reynolds announced
that the hearing would be postponed
until today. Counsel declined to give
bond, hoping that the court would turn
the prisoner over to an officer, and thus
pave the way for habeas corpus proceed
ings, but Judge Reynolds checkmated
this move by saying that he would take
personal charge Of the ticket agent, A
few minutes later, however, il became
apparent that Judge Reynolds simply
meant that he would take charge Of the
prisoner "constructivelyn for he re-
marked that Mr. Wilson could follow
him around all day, il he wanted to, !"
and then walked of, leaving the agent
to 60 his way unmolested, but feeling
very uncertain about bis legal status.
