6 A CHAMPION JAIL BREAKER. Deputy Bowler and Jailor Russell's Capture. A Bad Man from Texas and His Adventures. Kseape J. H. Bennett Captured ln This City—Some of Hli Adventures In ■seaplng from Custody—He Will be Taken Back. Deputy Sheriff Bowler and Jailor Rus sell have made an exceedingly clever capture oi a much-wanted man from Texas. They made the catch at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon in front of the Natick house, on First street, and the individ ual is J. H. Bennett, a cowboy who travels under the aliases of J. H. Har ris and J. H. Eskell. Bennett is a man with a record, and just at present he is badly wanted by Sheriff White of Robertson county, Texas. Some time ago that official notified Sheriff Gibson that he had reason to believe that Bennett was in Southern California and sent a description of him here. Sheriff Gib eon detailed Deputies Bowler and Bus sell on tbe case and tbey spotted their man on the Fourth, and Sheriff White ia now on his way from Texas to take Bennett back there to serve a long term in the penitentiary for literally chopping a cowboy enemy to pieces. Some years ago Bennett was arrested, charged with killing a cattleman named Johnson, in Franklin, Texas. He was convicted and sent to the Texas peni tentiary for life, and after serving for several years he was pardoned out by the governor on account of hie extreme youth. Bennett returned to the town of Franklin, and one night got into a figtit with a cowboy, during which he cut the latter in a score of places. He was ar rested, and while on his way to prison he made his escape and went to Hot Springs, Ark. Sheriff White learned that he was there and went for him. Bennett was loaded down with shackles and handcuffs, but while the attention of the sheriff was momentarily dis tracted, Bennett made a dash for the door and jumped off the train, al though it was running fifty miles an hour. The officers " had another long search for him, and finally corraled him in an obscure town in Texas. He was then taken to Franklin, tried and convicted for a four years term in the penitentiary. On the night after Bennett waa sentenced he broke out of the county jail, and all trace of bim was lost until he was cap tured by Deputies Bowler and Russell here. At first Bennett denied every thing, but yesterday he admitted that he was the man wanted in Texas. He has bsen working on the Newhall ranch for some time past, baling hay. Bowler yesterday got hold of letters signed by J. Harris, who is said to be Bennett's brother, and in these repeatedly cau tioned Bennett not to have his photo graph taken, and to "lay low," else he would be captured. Sheriff White has notified Sheriff Gibson to take all possi ble precautions with Bennett, as he is a dangerous man, and the champion jail breaker in Texas. The Tone of Age in New Violins. Burt N. Pierce, of this city, has in- i vented a process by which a violin can i be given the tone that heretofore has i only been imparted by age. The proc- c esses are secret, but it ia understood J that the desired tone is imparted by a < long series of vibrations on wood, the t time differing according to the quality of the wood. It is done by a mechanical « appliance, and tho company formed by Mr. Pierce claims to be able to put 1 more tone into a violin in two weeks ( than centuries of plajing and aging 1 would do. ' The violinist Eemenyi was permitted 1 to enter the workroom in Wright's ' power house, on South Tennessee street, 1 during his visit to this city, and 6x- i claimed that the results produced were marvelous and that this was the only establishment of tho kind.—lndianapolis Journal. Was This the First Steam Engine. An extraordinary story comes from Helsingford concerning the discovery of a chest containing a quantity of iron work and a roll of parchment giving a description of what must have been a steam engine, devised long before the time of Papin or Huyghens. It is stated that the iron work forms a rudimentary steam engine, the cylinders, pistons and other parts of which had been taken to pieces, but are wonderfully fashioned, considering their antiquity. Each piece bears the inscription, "Suger parens Galliae fecit." Suger was the well known administrator under both Louis VI and Louis Vll. He died in 1152.- Philadelphia Record. K.llle<i by a Cobweb. Some peculiar evidence was given during an inquest before the Liverpool coroner touching the death of Martha Roberts. Six or seven weeks ago de ceased cut her hand, and to stop the bleeding she adopted the housewife's plan of using a cobweb. Blood poison ing set in—presumably because there was dirt on tho cobweb—and the woman died. The doctor said that death was due to blood poisoning arising from the wound on the hand, and the jury re turned a verdict in accordance with this evidence.—-London Telegraph. A Postal Tnhe Across the English Channel. The proposed plan for the postal tube between France and England is to sus pend two tubes, each about three feet in diameter, by means of steel cables thrown across the channel, 120 feet above the 1 1 vel of the water. These cables are to > fixed to pillars whose foundations ill be the rocky bottom of the channel, xh pillar 800 yards from his fellow. If / lie plan as proposed is consummated, miniature trains, each carrying 500 pounds of mail matter, will run through the tubes.—Yankee Blade. Bncklen's Arnica Salve.

Ha Shot Too Well and So They Took Uira Out of Temptation. "Away up in the Sierras, where the mountains rear their suow white peaks and stand liUe sentinels in armor guard ing tho gold that lies hidden in the reeky canyons belt >w. 1 once saw an exhibition of rYe shooting which 1 have never since seen equaled," remarked a grizzled old man whose sands of life had nearly run, as he stood surrounded by a group of interested listeners in a well known Clark street sporting resort the other night. "What was 1 doing up there, you ask. Why, herding sheep, in order to get together enough for a grub stake, so that 1 might start out again on a prospecting tour. "We had 10,000 sheep, divided into four bands, with three herders and as many dogs to each one of them, and we camped wherever night overtook us. 1 tell you I slept sounder in those days, rolled up in a pair of blankets and with a log of wood for my pillow, than 1 do now in the best bed that I can find in a hotel. "We followed the old stage road that led up from Stockton through Sonora and Cherokee camp, and then struck out over a trail that led through the 'Big Basin' and up to the headwaters of the Tolumne river. It was in June and the air was full of the fragrance of flowers, while the sunlight as it flick ered through the trees made a chess board on the green carpet that lay stretched out beneath the spreading oaks. "We had long before left civilization behind us, when late one evening we came out of the woods into a little mountain meadow that was known as Crane's flats, and was the headquarters for a band of cattle herders. Most of them were Italians, but they gave us a warm welcome. One of them in particu lar attracted my attention. He was tall, lithe and muscular, and walked with the easy swing of a professional pedestrian. His eyes were of bluish gray, and he seemed to be a leader among his com panions, all of whom were swarthy and dark eyed. " 'If you can get that fellow to show you some sho&ting you will see some thing wonderful in that line,' whispered one of my companions. " 'Who is he?* I asked. " 'Italian Joe,' was the reply. "I had heard of Italian Joe before. At Sonora, at Cherokee, at the Confidence mines and in a hundred other places his fame as a rifleshot had been dinned into my ears. ™ "The next morning 1 asked him to give us an exhibition of his skill. Shoot ing was his weak point, and he consent ed. Unlike the coy maiden, who can sing, but wishes to be coaxed before she does, he had his notes with him. Tak- ing a Colt's revolving rifle in his hands he paced off a hundred yards and pinned a common cap box to the trunk of a huge oak. Coming back, he wheeled as quick as lightning, and without sight ing, apparently, he emptied the cham bers. Six of the shots were in a circle around the edge, while the seventh was a plumb center. "Loading again, he glanced about him. High up in the heavens a hawk circled warily through the blue, looking for something to prey upon. There was a moment of hesitation, a quick report and down came the hawk with a bullet in his head. Pennies, dimes and quar ters that were tossed in the air came down with a bullet hole through them. He missed nothing that he drew a bead on. He could beat all the Carvers and the Buffalo Bills that you ever saw." "What became of him?" asked an eager listener. "He shot at a man and he didn't miss him, either. He was captured by a band of vigilantes, and when I came out of the mountains in the fall his skeleton, white and ghastly, was hanging to a tree at the entrance of the big basin. The vultures had picked all the flesh from the bones, and the sun, wind and rain had bleached them to a snowy whiteness. Pinned to a tree was this inscription, written with charcoal upon a pine shingle: i BE COULn SHOOT TOO WELL, ! : AND WE HUNO HIM. : "Rather a ghastly comment on our so called civilization, was it not?" —Chicago Mail. • ■ Effect of Gravitation. If a man weighing twelve stone were to be transferred to the moon, the weight of his body, measured, at least, by the attraction which the moon would exer cise upon it, would be reduced to about two stone. If his muscles and his frame remained the same, it would seem as if he would be able to jump over a wall twelve feet high on the small globe without any greater exertion than would be required to clear a wall two feet high on the earth.—Good Words. Mountain Lions Are Great Cowards. Mountain lions are the greatest cow ards in the mountains, although people who are not familiar with them believe that they stretch out on limbs of trees and pounce upon unsuspecting travel ers. I will guarantee to take an ordi nary hickory club and chase any lion in the mountains, although I have one hide at homo measuring nine feet from tip to tip.— Topeka Capital. Amusement of Texas Engineers. Engineers of railroad trains in Texas and most of the western states carry re volvers and often rifles in the cab for contingencies that might arise. They amuse themselves by shooting at the telegraph poles or any other mark while running at full speed, and attain won derful skill in marksmanship.—St. Louis Republic. THe Oldest Banknote. The oldest banknote now in existence is in the British museum, and was is sued from the imperial mint of China at the beginning of the reign of tho first Ming emperor. The first bank in Eu rope was at Barcelona, established in 1401. The Chinese banknote is supposed to date back to 1100.—New York Sun. Miles'* Nerve and Elver Fills.

Millionaire Bradbury's Bonanza at Rosario. An Interesting: Letter Abont the Alamo Camps. A Mine Which Ia an Underground City. No ten frem the Julian Dis trict — The Alamo Mine*. A Lower California correspondent of a San Diego paper, in describing his visit to various points on the peninsula, says: "At Rosario is the famous Tajo mine, owned principally by L. L. Bradbury, the Los Angeles miliionaire. The mine is 650 feet deep, has twelve levels, thirty miles of track, is fitted with the most improved machinery, and employs hun dreds of men. It is a veritable under ground city. I was shown all through the mine, and, judging from the piles of bullion, the mine must pay enormously, notwithstanding the fact that it has been in operation over 300 years. THE O'h'EILL MINE. A correspondent of the San Diegan writes as' follows: Laguna Mountain, June 28.—Since tbe closing down of the Stonewall mine a feeling of sadness prevails among the working classes. But better times are looming up. The recent crushing at the Noble mill on ore from the O'Neill mine at Deer Park was s surprise. The clean up was much better than predicted, taking into consideration the difficul ties of working the mine on account of the mammoth size of the ledge, and more particularly the scarcity of money to develop its resources. However, the difficulties are now surmounted. The O'Neill in my opinion will eclipse the Stonewall, for the reason that at 30 feet depth the O'Neill ore milled $10.80, with an 8-foot ledge. The O'Neill will be hard to beat, and my earnest wish is success. Eon Weyms. NOTES FROM ALAMO. A correspondent of the Union at Ala mo writes that "although the hopes of a boom are temporarily squelched by the closing down of the Tomasso com pany, tbe camp is still producing gold in appreciable quantity. The Aurora mine, the* leading one here, is in bonanza ore again, and the mill responds by running full time. Both owners are away, one howling for Cleveland in Chicago and the other recovering from the Blame fever. "The Princess company is untiring, and still pegs away at a losing game. Their luck is apt to turn from Bheer per sistence. A full force of men is kept on night and day, and lately a new ore body was found, which yields hand somely. " 'Ted' Brennan of Pine street is ex pected here tomorrow with a capitalist to inspect some properties. The Asbes tos, IXL and Rainbow mines are under consideration. On Aurora hill another group is being gathered in options, the Americana, Tarantula, Elephant, Quin ota, Richmond, Manzanita and Scor pion. Some San Francisco parties are negotiating for this group through their Alamo agent. A sale is also noted of the Centipede, in Mexican Gulch, where a mill is to be placed, •'Much sympathy ie manifested here for A. H. Butler, the indefatigable. He has wrestled the past five weeks in San Francisco against adverse circumstances connected with the Tomasso company. The closing down of their promising work on tbe Tomasse group is to be re gretted. Nobody who knows Butler doubts that he wili eventually come out in bonanza. "More placer digging ie going on than since the first discoveries. Prospecting is also lively in the direction of the des ert. At Chinka Chada gold is reported in paying quantities. Camp Nacional is paying the fifteen men there an average of $5 each daily. "In the neighborhood of the El Paso mill in Alamo gulch, an old river bed has been discovered, which now swarms with men and rockers. Several lucky ones are taking out over an ounce a day. Others must get their salt on tick." Good Looks. Good looks are more than skin deep, depend ing upon a healthy condition of all the vital organs.

Soon the approaching figure of the owner loomed up in the dis tance, and the Danbury youth knew he had been seen. He took incontinently to the bushes, where he spent a very miserable two hours in hiding and caught a cold that kept him two days in bed. Meanwhile the terrible owner, who was not the owner at all. had sought a similar refuge at sight of the original culprit, and not until his teeth chattered like a typewriter did he venture to leave the friendly but damp shelter and slink away from tho scene. He was an elder ly man, and his share in the day's sport resulted in a four days' rheumatic limp. —Boston Transcript. Ancient Sacrifices to the Sea. The navigators of antiquity, to whose .'inaginative ignorance the ocean seemed peopled and beset with chimeras dire and supernatural agencies of all sorts, used often to sacrifice human lives to the mysterious water gods.
