SHERIFF DON
JOHNSON MAKES
A Great Capture After a
Long, Hard
Chase.

Sheriff Don Johnson returned
TO Deming last week from Mex
leo, having in custody VIM. ID.
Gowens, better known as Bud, "
who is wanted in this county,
charged with fence cutting.
johnson left here February %,
and had a very thrilling expert
ence, and the whole town of
Deming is rejoicing with him in
his success. In fact the people
are glad just to see him again, as
communication with him was cut
of for some time, and some Of
the simpler folk didn't know
whether to conclude that John
son had captured his man or had
got captured.
The oifense came about in this
way. For more than a year the
settlers of this valley have eX-
perienced no little trouble and
expense in having their fences
cut or other mischief done. There
are no legal roads, and where a
man takes up land and fences
across Il road it causes some in
convenience to the travelling pub
lie, some of whom are mean
enough to deliberately cut the
wire. There are other reasons,
but this is one of them. But this
fence cutting is a very serious
offense, and knowing this the
guilty parties managed to keep
their crimes pretty well covered
up, until about a month ago, when
sufficient evidence was obtained
against two persons, al least, for
their arrest, one Of whom, Albert
Keith, was captured at that time
and placed in jail. Bud" Cow
ems was the other, and as soon
as he learned that intimation
was against him he harked to
Mexico.
Now it seems that this is not
the first time that Gowens was
ever sought after by officers of
the law;at any rate he has a rep
utation rs a sleek duck" " But
he must have forgotten that Don
Johnson was sheriff of Luna
cou lty, and about as sleek as
tney get to be.
Gowens is a cowboy and rode
away. Johnson got on his trail
and followed him to a sheep
camp about three miles out of
M M1Xico, fifty or sixty miles east
OF Douglas. Here he found that
Gowens had deserted his horse
and saddle. As this is a very
singular thing for a cowboy to
do, Johnson would not believe
that it were really true, and so
mounting his horse as if to re-
turn home, he made a large cir
cult, coming back to within a short
distance of the camp from be-
hind. Here for six days he lay
in ambush, watching the camp
lest haply he might get a glimpse
Of Gowens; but it was all in vain,
for no Gowens appeared nor was
there any evidence about the
camp of his being in the country.
Just what Don subsisted on all
this time, he failed to state; but
i. is presumed he got plenty of
fresh air and sunshine. Any
way he had to seek elsewhere for
Gowens. Finding his trail, he

| rear IIlSu IlluI bOWeIS was ell
ployed at the Nogalita sheep
ranch some distance out in the
country. He then obtained two
policemen Of the Mexican gov
ernment, who were authorized
! to arrest Gowens, with Johnson S
assistance, if it were needed.
On reaching the ranch, they
found that Gowens was employed
there. but that he had gone that
day to "A little town in the coun-
try to buy groceries. They there
! fore followed him on, meeting
him on his return and arresting
him without any resistance be-
ing offered.
The place where Gowens was
taken is within a few miles of
the spot where Don Johnson's
father several years ago cap
tured the two noted outlaws,
Brooks and Stevenson, which in
cident is remembered by many
Deming citizens.
Gowens was brought back
to Deming without requisition
papers. 1t would have required
sixty days to have gotten them,
and GoGens preferred making no
further resistance. He stated
that a man who could not evade
the law in that country need not
expect to Go so in any country, as
that was as nearly nowhere" as
place could be.
Gowens waived his preliminary
hearing before Judge Chapman

bound over in the sum of Sl0,-

Mrs. Whaley later said that some

require more definite information re-

gave aid to her grand daughter.
The fact that the etelegram was pre-

power OF employees in many lines OF
industry is being curtailed by short

threat is made that a refusal TO accept
lower wages may result I'm a wide
spread suspension or activity In the
coal trade. The long standing curtaiI-
ment Of cotton goods production shows
nc signs of ending; in fact, a continued
heavy cut in production Is indicated
and notice has been given, in addition,
OF ten per cent. reduction in wages
at some eastern mills.
Dry goods OF various kinds, grocer
