SHERIFF. IN DENVER.
Carson, Charged With Embezzle-
ment, Arrested by Tom Stewart
Makes His Getaway.
ON Deadwood Telegram.

From Deadwood Telegram
Carson, the man whom Sheriff
Tom Stewart of Meade county, went
to Portland, Ore, to get, escaped in
Denver with the assistance of his
wife, who followed the sheriff and
his charge. She feigned sickness
and went to the hotel Oxford in CON :
pany with her husband. The prie.-
oner then climbed down the FIRE es.
cape and made his getaway.
The sheriff, on going to the room,
found Mrs. Carson apparently
asleep. She said her husband was
lying at the foot of the bed when
she dozed off and that she had not
noticed his departure. Upon looking.
around the room she informed the
officer that her husband had taken
$25 from her purse. Carson is the
man alleged to have appropriated
$3.50 of the Bennett Piano company's
money.

comfort; paying current bills with
reasonable promptness, and are buy,

MEADE COUNTY FARMER
FINED FOR COSTLY BLAIR

His failure to take proper precau-
lions to prevent prairie fire has
proved costly to Edward Prinz,
farmer of Meade county. In the cir
cult court at Sturgis Judge Rice has
just entered two judgments against
Prinz as a result of the prairie fire
OF March % last year. Prinz order
ed his son to burn haystack on his
farm, and some hot ashes were left
from the fire, with the result that
high wind soon started contlagra-
ton that wiped out his neighbours
dwelling and school house. Suits
were filed against Prinz under the
state law, and judgments followed.

Hay.
The hay crop is perhaps one-third
below the average in volumne but
the value is not materially affected.
In comparing the hay estimates of

~ hhu AhS me prisoner guilty.
me brotherhood of the BLACK
HAND which seems to embrace a
considerable percentage of the Ital-
ian population of this city, is still
doing thriving business. In spite of
the frequent police shake-ups or, per-
haps, because of them, the members
OF the brotherhood seem to enjoy
perfect immunity and almost daily
some one or more children, usually
OF Italian parents, are kidnapped and
held for ransom. The other day an
effort was made to kidnap little
Italian girl in Bath Beach, part OF
brooklyn, and since the not only
half a dozen detectives but nearly
all the children of the school in Bath
Beach, to which the girl goes, escort
the girl home from school every al
ternoon.
Prof. James H. Hyslop, the ex-
ponent Of spiritualism and one of the
main stays of the Society of Psychic
Research, had hard row to hoe the
other day. when he delivered a lee
ture on the subject Are the Dead
Alive?" before the Brooklyn Philo-
sophical Association. There were
great many persons present, among
them men and women of a dozen
different nationalities. Prof Hy-
Stops address lasted nearly an hour
and after he had concluded his ad-
dress the chairman of the meeting
announced that questions were in
order. And the questions came
thick and fast. The questions were
mostly of an aggressive nature and
the professor was kept busy defend
ing his pet theories against the keen
criticism and the sober skepticism of
numerous interrogators. 1t is safe
to say that Prof. Hyslop was not
particularly elated over the success
of his address and that he left the
meeting with the conviction that the
iAASAAoOAo VI tAS' LII OOh1yu
cal Association considered his theor-
les little more than rubbish and did
not hesitate to express their opin-
ion. emphatically though politely.
There is no lack of freakish or
CARNATIONS in New York and their
number is steadily increasing. The
other day the Maternity Monument
Association applied in the hupreme
court for certificate of incorpora-
ton. The general object of the as
ISOLATION. as stated in the incorpor-
alton papers is the cultivation and
dissemination of various branches of
art. with special emphasis on scnlp-
ture. The specific object is to erect
a statue depicting the subject of ma.
ternity, in Central Park or some
other suitable location A frivolous
clerk suggested for the monument
the figure of a woman wheeling a
baby carriage containing twins.
The records of the various courts
and city Offices in New York give
one an excellent idea of the polyglot
composition of the city's population.
The clerks in the marriage license
bureau are quite accomplished lin
gusts, yet they were nonpulssed the
other day when a Chinese couple
came for marriage license. On the
was offered for probate. 1t was the
first will written in Chinese charac-
tiers that had filed with the Surro-
gate in the last twenty years and had
much the appearance of full grown
ladunry ticket.

Decrease .........$ 21,174,00O
The decrease will be found to be
chiefly in the items of wheat, corn,
oats, potatoes and fruit and is due to
reduced yield and smaller price for
the cereals and failure of fruit and
potatoes. However the decrease only
indicates smaller degree of great
prosperity for apportioned to a popu-
lation of $4,000 it gives $329.27

acy in per capita production of the

New York, Dec. l6.-The other
DAY a middle-aged man with an I'M
nadstakable expression of worry upon
~ features, entered the office of
the Children's Court to ask for adj
vice. He informed the clerk that he
was teacher in an anarchistic Sum
day school and had come to ask
what to do with his 16-year-old son,
who was absolutely unmanageable
and fncorrigible. Neither persuasion
nor punishment seemed to have the
slightest effect upon the boy. But,
what can you expect" exclaimed the
clerk. Here you are teaching re-
volt against law and order, and yet
you expect your offspring to obey
you When the clerk suggested to
the worried anarchist to bring his
son to court and to submit the case
to the Judge, who would send the
boy to some institution, the man in
auired whether he would have the
right to determine to which institu
tien the boy should be sent, the an
archist became indignant. THAT is
nothing but tyranny he said, "Only
In society like ours, where laws
are regarded as more important than

in such an arbitrary manner" With

A few days ago case came up for
trial before Justice Gerrad of the SUI
Rreme court, in which a woman was
the defendant in an action for the
recovery of $500 claimed by the
owner of sanitarium for the main
tenance and treatment of the Wo-
mans son. The defendant inform
ed the court that she could not at
ford to hire a lawyer and insisted
upon conducting her own case. Her
defense was vigorous enough, but
lacked substantial basis and i'm
nediately after the close of the ar
guments the court gave judgment in
favor of the plaintiff for $475.

wins?" asked the woman. When
she was informed that the decision
meant just that, the woman was in
ignant and, turning to Justice Ger

Lawyers and 1aymen alike are
looking forward with interest to the
outcome of a rather curious criminal
case which developed here the other
day. A short time ago some burglar
entered the apartment of certain
actress and her husband 1t is claim
ed that the burglar chloroformed or
tried to chloroform the couple, but
did not make good job OF it. The
woman was awakened by the noise
made by the burglar in ransacking
the fiat, and, although she was
afraid to call for help, she watched
the man and obtained good view
of his back. A few days later she
identified a man in restaurant as
the burglar and the man was ar
rested, although he protested his in
nocence. But the actress insisted
that the prisoners back looked ex-
actly like the back of the burglar
of which she had so vivid recollec.
zion, and the prisoner was held fol
trial. The case is rather unusual
