ment on a Steamer---Turned over
to Fairfax Authorities.

Douglas Hawkins, colored, one of
the iremen on the excursion steamer

negro and secure him until the arrival
of the steamer at this port. After the
St. Johns had been made fast to the
wharf at the foot OF Cameron street a
telephone message was sent to the sta
ton house and officers Wilkinson and
Ferguson responded. They boarded
the steamer and took. Hawkins to the
station house.
When the case was called this morn
ing in the Police Court, Justice Cation
announced that the accused would be
turned over to the authorities Of Fair
fax county, and the case came before
Justice Stuart this afternoon
Justice Stuart, after hearing the evil
dence in the case, sent the accused on

Will a lone woman homesteader
be able to hold up the Denver res

In the Denyer-Greeley valley dis-
trict?
This is the question that is
bothering the large force OF men
that have been busily engaged IN
cleaning out the bitches, putting IN
bridges and preparing the bitches
for the expected water. All was
working we'll until they came upon
the homestead of Mrs. M. A. smith,
southeast of Greeley, where they
encountered a huge mound OF dirt
in the ditch that crosses her land.
On it was a sign that reads:
Don't dig here-Dynamite is
buried"
The workmen did not doubt the
truth of the sign. They tool 1t at
face value and have left it severely
alone. Those who argued that II
might be a joke did not back their
belief by getting busy with picks
Now they are busy in other places
while the mound frowns down on all
who approach, meanwhile effective

1t is said that the woman used
this method of making the irri-
CATION company settle with her for
the right-of-woy over her land. She
alleges that the company agreed to
the right-of-way over her land. She
dug the ditch as per agreement, but
have failed to show the color OF
their money for the concession.
The workmen engaged in the Vi
cinity are hoping for an early settle
ment, as they are keen to know II
there really is dynamite in the
bowels of the mound.
