HIS NATURAL HABITAT
 HE COUNTY JAIL
Francisco Martinez in Again for
 Thievery.

| Francisco Martinez cannot be happy 1 out of jail. He was discharged in the early part of the week, having fin ished short term for larceny from the Boston store.
 Late on Saturday night, while Constable Murphy was riding along an alley on his bicycle, he encoun- tered Martinez trying to sell a shirt to another Mexican. The officer stopped to look into the proposed commercial transaction. He knew that Martinez could have no article to sell unless he came by it dishonestly. He examined the shirt and found it to be an expensive garment of light blue figured silk.
 The officer, surmising that it came from the Boston store, since Mar tinez gives that store all of his lar cenous patronage. took him to the store, which had been closed for business for more than an hour. But several of the clerks were there. put ting the goods back into shape, and the shirt was promptly identi- fled
 The officer, by the way, had with him two prisoners whom he had picked up and Martinez. taking ad vantage of the officers encountered condition and broke away. But an of- ficer from Cananea who happened to be near came to the officers assist ance and Martinez was retaken.
 When the prisoner was brought into the light the officer gave him what seemed to be a look of recognition and Martinez began tO make signs to him to hold his peace. But the off cer did not, but said that Martinez had at one time been a resident of Cananea and had left behind him record of continual thievery. Con stable Murphy said that, though the record had been left in Cananea. Mar tinez had established another just like it here.
 He will have a hearing before Jus tice JohnstOne today.
