Austin truck, which is stationed only
four blocks from the scene of the fire.
Its speed was 50 miles an hour.

$ll,OOO DAMAGES
Man Held In Jail In Austin Mur
der Case Alleges He Was
lmprisoned.
Special Dispatch.
Austin, Tex., Aug. 9.—An echo from
the unsolved mystery of the murder
of Maggie Hander, last fall, came in
a suit tiled against George 8. Matthews,
sheriff of Travis county, in the Fifty
third district court late yesterday by
John J. Grubbs, claiming $ll,OOO dam
ages for false imprisonment. Grubbs
sues the sheriff on his bond, and the
s\iv>ties made defendants in tha suit
are' George W. Littlefield, C. O. Gil
bert and D. B. Matthews. J. L. Bro
die, county jailer, and J. D. Plumb,
formerly a deputy constable, are also
made party defendants.
Grubbs was arrested shortly after a
mutilated body found on the Cameron
road, five miles east of Austin, last
October, was identified as that of Mag
gie Hander, an adventuress. He is a
man 00 years old. One of the suspicious
circumstances that led to bis arrest was
that he is said to have claimed the
dead woman’s property the day after
she disappeared.
The old man was kept in jail until
the grand jury met on suspicion that
he had knowledge of the murder; and
the grand jury failing to indiet him,
Sheriff 1 Matthews and others working
on the case continued to hold Grubbs
from late in October to January, on
a charge of forgery. It is on this term
in prison that he sues alleging false
imprisonment. The killing of Maggie
Hander has never been cleared up.
Although Chief Laughlin and mem
bers of the police force #>re active in
keeping Grubbs in jail in the hope of
untangling the murder mystery, they
are not named as defendants in the suit,
because Grubbs was held under the or
ders of Sheriff Matthews.

She gave her name as Miss Mary

urday Joseph Hardeman addressed a
letter to Dan Cupid, alias Postmaster
J. .1. Stevens, in which he said he was
a ranchman and a cowboy and that he
was seeking for some one who would
like to share a home on his ranch. He
was to all intents serious in his prop

master Stevens from this young lady
who failed to describe herself hnd on
reading it he was heard to exclaim,
“Oh, you Johanna!” Well, at any rate,

with Mr. Hardeman and to show the

there was not one drop of jealous blood
in his steins Mr. Hardeman turned over

might want to take a chance with this
mysterious lady who signs herself Miss
Mary Johanna. Perhaps this girl, a
brunette or blonde, has plenty of
money, and then some, perhaps. “Oh,
you Johanna!” Now these are just
exactly the words that Johanna used in
her answer to the application to Mr.
Hardeman:
“Well, Joseph! I must say you are
a queer sort of a cowboy if in fifteen
years of steady herding and rounding
np of the fair sex you haven’t suc
ceeded in roping and putting your ‘J.

is the matter, anyway, Joef It’s my
opinion that you have been rid;ng the
range in the wrong place. But I want
to tell you this, you are right not to
have cast your rope at any of these
young heifers without faults. They
won’t do. Take it from me, Joe, there
is something wrong with the breed.
They are not thoroughbred ‘white,
faces’ if they don’t get fussy and
nervous, stampede and raise the devil
once in a while. Especially in Texas
down by the Rio Grande. Suppbse
some starlit night ‘ln the Good Old
Summer Time,’ you are sitting beside
your pick of the ‘bunch’ doing ‘The
Air Was Heavy and the Night Was
Hot’ stunt and a Texas norther in the
I shape of another dark-eyed beauty,
sleek, and trim, groomed to her dainty
hoofs, comes ‘blowing’ into camp,
I looks you over, decides you’ll do and
I rubs her prefty nose (figuratively
speaking) against your coatsleeve ap
provingly. Now, honestly, Joseph,
wouldn’t you rather your Lasca would
stick a knife between your ribs when
you return the invader's caress than to
look pleasant over it? You know you
would.
“Joseph, you are looking for a thor
oughbred and you don’t realize that’s
what’s the matter with you. Now.
ginger up. Get out your best som
brero, put on all your ‘glad’ cowboy
‘scenery,’ take the best lasso in the
outfit. Mount you trusty steed and
sally forth. Ride the range carefully
for the next thirty days, keeping a]
sharp lookout. Your thoroughbred will .
show up on a ridge somewhere, some l
evening between you and the coni I
ing sunset of life. When -he does, ‘rope’
her. If yon are the kind of a fellow
that I think you are, the ‘branding’
won’t taks long after that.
