I. B. Hanna, formerly of Kankakee,
111., now inspector of the government
forest reservations in Arizona and New
Mexico, tells in a recent letter about a
gang of outlaws in New Mexico that
cannot be dislodged by the authorities.
Mr. Hanna writes:
"A band of about twenty desperate
outlaws, that can't be driven from its
fastness by the government, has its
rendezvouz at White Rocks, within the
Gila River forest reservation, in south
western New Mexico, about ten miles
northwest of Alma and five miles east
of the Arizona line. The locality de
rives its name from the number of
white rocks that overhang the caves;
they can be seen for many miles. The
caves are situated in the last range
of the San Francisco mountains. To
approach them one must climb a steep
incline from the east for several miles.
It Is practically impossible to arrive
within shooting distance withont be
ing observed by those within.
"In conversation with an old-timer,
who has on various occasione rendered
them some service, I learned that an
outlaw with a field glass is constantly
on guard, he can scan the country for
miles around, and by reason of the
high elevation can at once detect an
approaching person. The natives,
therefore, avoid going in close prox
imity to the robbers' lair. The open
area in front of the caves affords no
shelter, and consequently it is well not
to be too inquisitive.
"Up to a year ago this band was
much in evidence and quite bold, as
Capt. French and others can testify.
Their rashness, however, was disas
trous to several, as it resulted in the
death of Red Weaver and a few of his

HIS MISTAKE.
Yoaoff Lawyer Was Determined to See
the Judge Right.
Tresiulng Justice Van Brunt of the
Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court is a man of rare good humor and
yet with all a judge who can call an of
fending lawyer to account in a manner
that he i3 not likely to forget. The
presiding justice met his match, how
ever, in a young lawyer who appeared
before his august bench last week.
It was a simple cause that the young
lawyer pleaded, but his heart was in it
and he believed that he was entitled
to a reversal of the verdict that had
been rendered against him. He was
armed with all the authorities, and he
quoted from them copiously. The hon
orable justice yawned as he presented
his case in this elemental fashion.
"Pardon me." Interrupted Justice
Van Brunt after a time, "but I would
suggest that you get down to the merits
of your case."
"Presently, your hpnor, presently,"
responded the young lawyer with fo
rensc eloquence, yet he continued with

pals. The duel between Weaver and
Holliman must have been a thrilling
sight. Imagine two men, less than 100
feet apart, advancing toward each
other, shooting at every step. Weaver
was known as the best shot in the
country, yet, under the excitement of
the moment, his shots flew wide of the
mark, whereas Holliman shot to kill.
Holliman still remains in that part of
the country with his two brothers
in the cattle business, but is never far
away from his trusty rifle.
"The leader of the gang is. Jim Lowe,
a fine-looking, gentlemanly fellow, well
educated and presumably from a good
family. He looks more like a preach
er than a rascal. Lowe has been ab
sent from his old haunts since the
hold-up of the Northern Pacific rail
road in Montana last summer. It is
generally supposed that he was the
leader and planned the robbery.
"Most of the outlaws were originally
cowboys. As a rule they become pro
ficient with shooting irons. The rid
ing of bronchos has a tendency to
make them reckless and careless of
their lives. Expertness with rifle and
pistol makes them bold and heedless.
Eventually they become tired of
punching cows for $30 a month and
their "chuck" and drift into the cattle
business, without capital. This is
called rustling. In the past some have
been quite successful, but if the rus
tlers are caught it is likely to go hard
with them.
"It has been stated in my hearing
that 25 per cent of the inmates of the
penitentiary in New Mexico have been
convicted of rustling.
"The apprenticeship of the cowboy
makes him proficient in roping and
branding stock. It is therefore easy
renewed earnestness to expound the
law as he saw it.
"Let me suggest to you." said Jus
tice Van Brunt, interrupting again,
"that you get down to the merits of
your case and take it for granted that
the court is familiar with the elemen
tary principles of law."
"No, your honor, no," declared the
young lawyer, with absolute sincerity.
"That was the mistake that I made
when I argued this case in the lower
COlTt."
Freak of the Law of Cravlty.
A paper by Major Burrow, read at
the meeting of the Royal Astronomical
society, discussed a curious fact, as
certained by the application of scien
tific methods of measurement to the
survey of India, namely that the
northerly deflection of the plumb line
ascribed to its attraction uy the great
mass of the Himalaya and the Tibe
tan upland, it reversed along a com
paratively narrow belt between 22 de
grees and 24 degrees north latitude,
crossing India from east to west for
1,000 miles. Here the deflection is
for him to acquire the habit of rustl
ing for himself. A rustler is one that
burns the brands on other people's
stock and places thereon his individ
ual brand.
"The king of the rustlers was killed
a year ago not by accident. It was
reported at that time that there were
about 2.000 head of cattle bearing his
brand on the range, valued at $30,000.
Less than ten years before his death
he was a cowboy earning $30 a month.
"In a majority of cases where a
rustler is caught and escapes this fre
quently haDoens bv the death of the
officer making the arrest he becomes
an outlaw, and in time he dies with
his boots on. There are, however, al
ways plenty of recruits to fill up the
ranks. The general opinion of the
people here is that White Rock's gang
has averaged about twenty for the
last twenty years.
"It may be wondered why the offi
cers don't arrest them and break up
the gang. C9a been-frequently at
tempted by the authorities. Scores
of men on both sides have lost their
lives in these battles. But the out
laws are still there and are likely to
be for some time, for they cannot be
exterminated by a few officers. Alma
is ordinarily a quiet place, composed
of a country store, with a postoffice
and saloon attached, a few dwellings
and a corral. On several occasions,
however, the residents thought that
an earthquake was upon them when
the officers and outlaws happened to
come together. The robbers have al
ways been assisted by young sympa
thizers, so they have seldom been
caught unawares, and in time these
same young fellows become members
of the gang and die before their time."
paratus that will make marksmen out
of poor shots. The invention is ex
pected to bring every indifferent
marksman up to a high standard of ac
curacy. Briefly described, the apparatus con
sists of a small sheet of semi-opaque
glass, upon which is engraved a cross.
In looking through the sight the
marksman apparently sees this cross
projected on the object at which he is
firing. Experiment with the apparatus
has shown that If a man can handle a
rifle at all it is more difficult for him
to miss than to hit the mark when
once he has become acquainted with
the simple methods of firing. Special
provision has been made by the in
ventor for night firing, and in the
dark the cross which guides the marks
man's eye is illuminated.
Patents of the new gun sight have
been secured in most of the countries
of the world, and it is expected to work
wonders in armies, where poor shots
are numerous. .,

The late Lord Dufferin was known
to his friends as one of the most
charming of men. His friends were of
both sexes. Indeed, his platonic gal
lantries, after he had reached the age
when he could safely indulge them,
were quite unconcealed. They may be
thought to be referred to in Kipling's
sprightly sketch, "Mrs. Hauksbee Hits
Out," which is of the period when
Lord Dufferin was viceroy of India.
That this tendency on the part of the
noble spouse was the subject of ami
able banter by Lady Dufferin is at
tested by a reminiscence of their- so
journ in Rome, when Lord Dufferin
was British ambassador there.
There had been during the night a

Gnos of the Mlkasa.
The trials of the improved Elswick
gun mountings for the barbette guns
or. the Japanese oattieship Mikasa
seem to prove that they are a long
way in advance of anything yet in use
in our navy, says the St. James Ga
zette. From the after barbette, firing
unaimed shots, the gun was on one
occasion loaded and fired in thirty sec
onds on the best previous performance.
But the most remarkable result was
achieved by the forward barbette,
which, firing aimed rounds from open
gun, got off three shots in a net period
of ninety-seven seconds, or at an av
erage rate of one rounu in thirty-three
and one-third seconds. As, however,
tne gun's crew was merely a scratch
lot, it is possible that the Mikasa will
beat this performance in the future.
She will, at any rate, approach the
rate of two rounds per gun per min
ute, which means that from her four
12-inch guns alone she will be able to
hurl three tons of steel at an opponent
witnin that time.
Quay's Long Speech.
Senator Quay's speech was the long
est ever printed. It occupied over 100
pages, and included a complete history
of the manufacture of iron and glass
from the earliest dawn of history to
the present day. Everybody remem
bers that speech and its purpose. It
was prepared for Mr. Quay when the
Democrats were engaged in revisln
the tariff. Every time they proposed a
reduction in the iron and steel sched
ule Mr. Quay would take from under
neath his desk a pile of manuscript
about three feet high and begin to
read. After he had kept this up for
two or three days and had made no
apparent inroad into the mountain of
typewritten sheets the Democrats
would succumb and suggest a compro
mise. At the close of the session the
speech was printed. It ought to have
been placed in the state Library of
Pennsylvania, and labeled "The Bul
wark of our Protected Interests."

A THOUGHTFUL MAID.
enator Clark's Art fl'm Was
Not
I'roperly Appreciated.
Senator W. A. Clark is an enthusias
tic collector of paintings, especially of
the nude. Not very many months ago
he received a number of friends at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Culver, in
Fifty-eighth street. Especially for that
occasion the senator had bought what
he declared a fine little piece of nude
art, daintily framed and set conspicu
ously on a mantel, so as to catch at
once the eye of any person entering the
room.
The senator had personally picked
the spot where to place his new ac
quisition and was not a little surprised
to find a short time afterward that a
huge bouquet of roses had been care
fully placed so as to hide the picture.
The owner of the picture removed
the bouquet, but within 10 minutes, as
he passed the spot to cast a loving
glance at his pet, there was the bou
quet again.
Twice more the operation was re
peated. Then the senator decided to
lie in wait to catch the culprit. Before
long he discovered the miscreant in
the maid in waiting at the door.
"Please sir," she exclaimed, blushing
pink, "1 thought what 'ud the people
say if they saw a thing like that star-
In' them in the face as they came into
the room, .an I thought I'd like to

finished arguing a tedious technical

whom Chief Justice Fuller would as

was made.
Just then Chief Justice Fuller came
down the corridor of the court build
ing. Mr. MacVeagh stopped him and
told him of the wager, asking the
Chief Justice to tell whom he would
assign, as that would settle the bet.
"On whom have you placed your
wager, Mr. MacVeagh?" the Chief Jus
tice asked.
"Mr. Justice Gray," was the response.
"Why did you choose Mr. Gray?"
queried Chief Justice Fuller.
"Because," replied Mr. MacVeagh, I
noticed he slept through the entire ar
gument."
