"I am a responsible citizen. I have a
business worth. $60,000."
"It may be worth that to you," flashed
back Mrs. Cameron-Falconet's attorney,
"but it's illegal and you ought to be put
out of business." , .
"All right, Mr. Mayor," commented
Johnson, with a laugh.
"If I was mayor of Chicago you
wouldn't be In business three days," re
plied the attorney.
After considerable wrangling Judge
Hopkins placed the bond at $1,500, the
usual amount in abduction cases.

Mat Ci Illy, banker and stockman of
Bonesteel. S. D., passed through Omaha
yesterday on his way home from Mexico
Where within sixty miles of the Amcr
can line, himself and his band of cow
boys were held captives fourteen days by
Mexican revolutionists until a ransom oi
$-.600 had been secured and paid over by
Crllly. Crllly is no bellicose adventurer
and his Journey to the state of Chlhauhuu
was dictated by business reasons and not
by tho romantic urge of a soldier of for
tune When captured he was on his way
from Columbus, N. M., to Polomas in old
Mexico, where he had purchased a herd
of cuttle from the Booker and Boyd and
the Polomas Land and Cattle company
on condition that lie with his men should
cross the borders Into Mexico and round
up the cattle themselves.
Crllly Is not more than thirty years of
age; tall, slim, brown with the healthy
brown of the cattle range, his blue eyes
smiled remlniscently or flashed resentfully
at hsat In the South Omaha Live Stock
bank and detailed the story of his own
capture and release from the hands of
tho Mexican revolutionists with Ameri
can soldiers not sixty miles away on one
side and the Mexican federals as near
as 230 miles on the other side of his cap
tors. Crllly Tells His Story.
"I have been down on the border off
and on since last May dealing In cattle,"
j Crllly. "In September I made a deal
j whereby I was to get 2,500 head of cattle
I on payment of a certain price If I would
take the risk of rounding up the cattle
and bringing them Into the United States
myself.5 I agreed, and with one or two
cowboys and three or four camp men
left Columbus, N. M., on September 10.
Before leaving I had notified the Ameri
can authorities and asked for protection.
I also warned the Mexican federals that
we expected to be guarded against the
attack of rebels. ' ' " '
and his Journey to the state of Chihuahua
"Well, we were captured after I had
cached $2,500, emergency money. In a
ranch near the border. The rebels want
money and I agreed to pay them $2,600 If
they allowed me and my men safe pas
sage back to the United States, together
with 1,000 head of cattle. I said 1.000
I head, but I brought back 2,509," added
Crllly, and his eyes twinkled with good
natured Yankee pride at a smart bargain.
Mr. Crllly left on the evening train for
his home In Bonesteel, S. D. He is a
heavy cattle dealer at the local market
and part of the herd brought from Mexico
was marketed In South Omaha.

Bee Want A3s. ; He knows
how nearly impossible it
would be for him to obtain
adequate and competent
help if it were not for these
little ads.; He also finds
the Want Ads invaluable
for . disposing of surplus
chairs, tables, d'esks,' type
writers and other surplus
office equipment, and also
equally valuable In purchasing
various second hand articles, ot
this nature, which he may need.
' Without the Want Ada the
sudden resignation of a ste
nographer, bookkeeper or sales
man might seriously cripple an
entire organization hut with,
the Want Ads It is a simple
matter within a few hour he
can replace his whole force If
need be -a single Want Ad
will do It. ' ;
