Deputy Slinrlff O'Brien has returned from
a trip to Nevada , Mo. , wltli Charles Foster
iillan Charles \Vllley , nllas John Smith
alias ft good many other things , In custody
Foster Is one of the men who committed a
murderous assault on Constable Uaker on
New Year's day when Halcer went to the
house occupied by Foster and two of his
< nfedcralcs , it man and a woman , to levy on
a pair of stolen buggy shafts. He and his
male companion got away at the time , bin
although the woman was captured , she couli
bo Induced to give up nothing that \vouli
help got track of her friends.
By mejiis of considerable good detective
work O'Brien managed to find that Foster
was In Missouri , and went after him. Fos
ter came bick without compelling the officer
to secure requisition papers. There Is no
doubt of hie being the right party , as Baker
has fully Identified him. It la almost eijualb
certain that both Foster and his pal were
Implicated in the two ( train robberies
that took place within bo bhort i
Orno last , whiter. It wil
bo difficult to prove the fact , however
although the officers hero are morally cer
tain of It. They are supposed to have com
mitted the first hold-up Immediately before
coming here and the second within two or
three days after they left. One of the lilts
of circumstantial evidence Is the fact Uiut
the train robbers used a wagon whose fore
and hind wheels did not track well , am !
Foster and his companion stole a wagon ol
this description at Silver City and used It
In making their escape. These two events
wore within a few days of ona another.

Thu Century War lloolc.
Some years ago when the question of how
the btory of the civil war should bo written
was under discussion , the Century company
conceived the Idea of publishing descriptive
and analytic articles on 4ho great battles of
tlio war , written by the leading commanders
on cither side. For example It was planned
to liavo articles on the battle of Shlloh by
General Grant , commander of the Army of
the Tennessee and General llnull , com
mander of the Army of the Ohio on the
union side , and by General Heauregard and
the son of General Albert Sydney Johnston
on the confederate side. This plan'was fol
lowed as to every Important campaign and
battle of the war , and the result was a phe
nomenal revival of Interest In war history.
The circulation of the Century went up to
225,000 copies , and there was such a de
mand for the war articles that they wore
extended and amplified and published In
four large , handsome volumes.
This "Leaders and Uattles of the Civil
War" Vaa In Illustration , In text , and In
typographical handling one of the hand
somest and most valuable publications ever
Issued In America. It had a largo sale ,
but Its price put It beyond the reach of the
masses. I'ccullar Interest attached to the
volumes because , as both Bides of the great
contest were concerned , the publishers were
able to secure the jlnest collection of photo-
etnpliH , battle maps and sketches , made
from paintings or from life , ever collected
and the volumes became n souvenir to the
pe pli Interested In the war for the Union.
The stories of the battles were told , as has
been bald , by the commanders-ln-chlef , by
members of their staffs , by ofllcers In com
mand of the raiding parties and dotach-
mcnts , and by many In the ranks who were
participants In exceptional episodes , and all
tliC'HO were arranged In such a way as to
tell the story of the war , the special re
ports being supplemented by statistical In
formation from olllclal teports as to the
strength of the armies and IOSECH In battle.
So great was the demand for a popular or
people's edition of this great work that the
publishers finally decided to Issue In a
cheaper form the "Century War Hook. " This
will Include all of the tnost striking features
of the original work , giving special promi
nence to tha pictures and will bo Issued In
parts , portfolio size. The leading articles by
the great generals will be given In full ,
General Grant telling the story of Bhlloh ,
Vlckbburg , Chattanooga and the Wilderness ,
and Sherman , McCIellan , Longstreet , Hill ,
Deauregard , Howard , Durnslde , Mosecrans
and other * tolling the Btory of tha battles
In which they participated or commanded.
The peculiar merit of this work Is that the
historical articles are from the military or
unparttsan standpoint , ICncli olllcer wrote
with a soldier's courtesy for opponents and
with the full understanding that every state
ment he inado would bo carefully weighed
and criticised. Appreciating the full value
and Influence of the widest possible circula
tion of Huch a work , In reviving and stimu
lating Interest In the great struggle that
fixed the status of the union. The lieo offers
the People's edition of the "Century War
Uook , " published In weekly parts , on terms
announced In Another column.
