he would send for some orphans to be
placed in El Paso homes if he could
get applications for ten or fifteen. He

few days.

BASE BALL
Demlng
Says El Paso Will Learn
Things From Her
The Darning Headlight in comment-
ing on the game recently played here
by toe team from the berg of water
says:
That the El Paso Herald is sore at
the drubbing which the Deming bate
ball team gave that city's local team
on Sunday last is very evident from
the account of the game given In last
Monday's issue of that paper.
The headlines of the article referred
to are "and Deming' knew she was up
against a ball team before she won. '
It would seem so indeed when ud to.
and Including the fifth inning the score
stood 6 to 0 in favor of Doming. The
truth is the Deming boys found El Paso
an easy mark. The Herald scores Hat-
sen of the El Paso team for poor play-
ing gives the local rooters particular
fits for rooting their own team's
poor playing and for not rooting
the Demlogites when there was no
root coming. Says we bad to get For-
sytne from Silver City to help us but
mages no mention of the men from
other towns that they are- keeping lo
El Paso for the season lor the express
purpose of helping out their poor
players. Now the way we treat toe
ball teams who oome to Deming wheth-
er we are defeated or not is different.
Deming never kicks we may laugh at
the defeated ones but we are too
courteous to make a hundred dollar
roar because we get defeated either at
home or abroad. However the boys
say they had a good tima thanks to
otners than the famous Colts who
never showed themselves to their vis-
itors at any other time than while
playing the game. It is expeoted that
the El Paso Colts will be here one
week from today and play a return
game and then they will learn some-
thing perhaps even from Demingites.
The truth of the matter is that Dem-
ing was up against a team and won the
game because El Paso's errors came
when they meant runs while Deming
made almost as many errors but they
were scattered. But when it comes to
having any men here who are kept
here just to play ball the Herald
only wishes it were so. There is not a
man on the team but who is either
resident of 1 Paao or has been here
all season working. And none of them
are here to play ball but the boys all
play the game for the love of it. As
for the treatment the boys recei
ved they were entertained at
one of tne oest noteis in jsi faso;
the local boys did not run around and
spend the night with them for the
mostofthe boys were working until
noon Sunday and had to go to work as
soon as they leit the ball nelc. But
the Deming bo; s seemed to enjoy them
selves.
Yesterday the Herald received
letter from Manager Geo. Tebsau of
the Denver Western League club ask
ing what arrangements could be made
for a game with the looal team after
September 4th. He contemplates
bringing his entire team for a trip
through this section of the southwest
and will likely be accommodated with
a series of three games. The letter is
now in the hands of the manager of
the local team who will work the mat
ter up.

FLINTLOCK HOLMES f
A Clever Satire on Conan Doyle'a Z
Great Detective.
I will never forgot the first day I ciinic
In contact with Flintlock Holmes. The
meeting made a great impression on me.
I can feel it yet. We were going in oppo-
site directions and collided at the corner
of Fleet street and Klodendoden lane.
Holmes apologized profusely.
"Are you looking for trouble?"' said he.
'"No" I replied rubbing my injured
leg. "I am looking for rooms."
"Good!" said he. "So am I. My name
is Flintlock Holmes. Let's go together;
it's safer that way. The sidewalks are
slippery."
I could not but note my new compan-
ion's unusual appearance. His hawklike
eyes his high loreneau his prominent
cheek bones all impressed me as being
those of a man. Later events proved
that I was not mistaken. Holmes kept
his seat in the underground and let a
woman stand. On the way I recollect
he told me about the Haker street rooms
how cozy they were and how cheap.
When we got to the house he had men-
tioned. Holmes without warning gave
me a kick which propelled my body to
the top of the steps. '
"Sorry to knock you up Watson." he
remarked affably "but these fits of en-
ergy will come over me at times. I en-
deavor to stop them but can't."
His calling me by name stifled what-
ever surprise I may have felt at his pe-
niliar mauner.
"How on earth did you come to know
my name? I asked in astonishment.
"It's simplicity itself." he said laugh-
ingly. "I saw the name Watson on your
shoe straps when you stooped to turn up
your trousers."
"True" said I "the name is there but
how could you tell it was not the name of
the maker?"
"Easily" said he. "It is a hobby of
mine to be exact. I therefore carry :n
my mind the name of every shoe dealer
butcher baker and so forth in London.
There is no shoe dealer named Watson.
The shoes are new. Hence you did not
buy them elsewhere. h.hniinatc the im-
possible and that which remains must be
the truth. You wrote the name on the
shoes yourself fearful lest you might
leave them somewhere without marks of
identification upon them. There is no
mystery about it."
"Holmes." I said "you're a wonder."
"Yon have guessed my occupation" he
remarked good hmimrodly. "1 am a spe-
cialist in other people's business. When
the police fail people resort to me. When
I fail it is all up. Did you ring the door-
bell. Watson?'
"No."
"I thousrht as much. I deduced it."
"How?" I marveled.
"No one has come to the door" he said.
"It is simplicity itself."
Holmes stepped forward and gave the
bell handle a vigorous pull. In a few
minutes a maid ushered us into the entry.
"We have come to look at the rooms."
Holmes said and we ascended the stairs.
"Did you count the number of steps on
the way up Watson?" my friend asked.
"No." I replied in astonishment. "Did
you?"
"Of course" he said. "I always do. I
believe in details. The number of steps
in a flight may be a little matter in itself
but stairs small as they are invariably
lead to higher things."
By this time we were in the rooms.
They were indeed cozy and comfortable.
The golden shafts of the late winter
sun streaming through the west windows
mellowed the already half ripe furniture.
I could see by the way Holmes shot his
eyes about that he was a reckless man
but I allowed no comment to escape my
lips. Holmes' actions surprised me too
much for that. Whipping out a magnify-
ing lens he stretched himself out full
length on the floor. In an instant he was
up.
"Did you see it Watson?" he yelled.
"Did you see it?"
"What?" I cried.
"The dust. The room has not been
swept in two weeks he said to the ter
rified maid. "I can see traces of dust
everywhere I look with the aid of this
glass."
I was about to marvel at his miracu
lous deduction when the maid spoke:
I could tell that without a magnify
ing glass" she said. "Look at your
trousers.
Holmes and ! did so simultaneously.
The maid was right. The fronts of both
legs were covered with dust where
Holmes had come in contact with the
carpet. He glanced ruefully at his pants.
You are a remarkable girl." he said to
the maid. '"Your powers of observation
are excellent. 5till it matters little.
What is it Longfellow says 'Dust thou
art to dust returneth?' He is so ex-
pressive Watson. I should recommend
you to study him."
I will said I. "But about the rooms?
Will they suit do you think?" j
Excellently for me" said Holmes;
but I was thinking of you. Will they !
harmonize with your Indian tastes?" I
"This is too much. Holmes!" I cried j
How do you know that I have been in I
India?"
"It's simplicity itself" he replied with ;
a laugh "lou tried to work off a rupee
on the guard in the underground. Be-
sides in the inner sole of your right shoe

and I know."
"Right both times" I managed to
stammer; in fact when you explain
your deductions they seem absurdly sim
ple. I cant understand it. lou see so

Not more than other people I fancv"

"For heaven's sake Holmes how do
yon know?"
"I just counted them. It is simplicity
Itself. But about the rooms as you sug
gested shall we take them?
"By all means" said I. And so it
came to pass that Holmes and I took up
our quarters in Baker street the scene of
so many memorable occurrences.
I have just discovered among Holmes'
private papers an unmailed note to me
forbidding the publication of "The Ad-
venture of Six Bad Eggs" till after the
death of John Forrester Roylett of Stoke-

i a sensitive lNature
I am so strangely constituted that no
sooner do I euter a room than I become
conscious in some way which I cannot
at all explain of the deeds which have
been done within that room. It is as if
inaudible words sounded in my ear nay
that description does not satisfy me.
Rather it is as if waves of comprehension
broke over me successively. As the sen-
sitized plate records impressions so does
my whole being appear to chronicle them.
One evening I was invited to dine with
my friend Theodore Ransom and his
bride and accepted with alacrity.
"This hideously sensitive body of mine
will feel only happiness for once in its
existence" I said to myself. So expect-
ant of a sensation of delight was I that
when I entered the artistic drawing room
and became conscious with a shock of a
wave of siu and pain it was as if I had
been dealt a blow in the face. Then
while 1 exchanged greetings wild my
hostess and laughed and talked with her
the details of a shameful scene enacted
within the walls of that room beat on my
brain and heart till 1 felt sick and faint.

It was in an
sort of cul de
at all the sort
of thing one would have expected to tind
in the city. It was thick with trees and
shrubbery and through the starlit gloom
I perceived a quaint summer house. It
was evident from all these tokens that
wo were about to visit a German family
for so these arboreal tokens indicated
to me.
We entered a long old fashioned draw-
ing room of nondescript color and char-
acter and I had just time to notice that
there was not an uncomfortable chair in
the place when the young ladies entered.
Max's cousins were certainly handsome
girls. They came from Philadelphia and.
having never been west before they had
ideas to which we listened with amuse-
ment and enjoyment. But while they
were talking I was submitting myself to
a most delightful revealment. The old
walls of the house gave out deep har-
monious vibrations. Peace settled upon
me. Thoughts of chaste sweetness of
exquisite modesty or tender joy filled my
mind. I became conscious of many dim-
med visions dimmed because the old
walls had seen so much that the writing
they presented to my subconsciousness
was like that of an ancient palimpsest.
In the new drawing room of Theodore
Ransom's house the scenes had been vio-
lent in their distinctness for compara-
tively few emotions had been experienced
within those walls. 1 marveled wno
the being could be that shed the pure
aud comforting influence about the room
in which I now sat. It could not be ei-
ther of the Misses Roeder for they had
; only been in that house for a week as
guests. Little by little out of the cross-
ing and recrossing impressions I began
to be conscious of a soft voi -e. tren of a
( slender figure and of a maiden's soul.
I But before I could succeed in disentan-
'. gling this idea from the many with which
i the place was haunted the embodiment of
! those perceptions entered the room.
I The dark curtains at the door were lift-
' ed aside by a tiny white hand and the
i next moment there stood framed by
these heavy draperies the maiden whose
. loveliness had been making itself known
to me from the second I entered the door.
She was of medium height with quiet
eyes hazel in color braided hair of
brown a transparent complexion a spir-
itual brow and smiling rather timorous
lips. 'Her little summer frock had no or-
nament except the violets at her belt.
She was the embodiment of maidenhood.
Wo all arose and I was trembling.
"My cousin. Miss Shaur Mario
Shaur" said the younger Miss Roeder.
"Really" said Max in his hearty way
"I think I ought to be able to claim some
sort of a kinship. Miss Shaur since you
are a cousin to my cousin."
Every one is kin who desires -so"
she replied and for the first time it
seemed to me that the brotherhood of
man was a fact. But I could say uoth-
ing. 1 held out my nana awKwaraiy ami

was aware that there was but one way
to rid the country of those posts aud
that way was to .make it too hot for

one 'of them was put on trial admitted
evidence that was sometimes '"incom-

as it was generally true that if the
prisoner was not guilty he had boon

Gaslin let it go at that and clinched

During these perilous times an atro-
cious murder was committed In Adams
county and the perpetrators were soon
captured. The evidences of guilt were
plain and the two prisoners were soon
pronounced guilty and sentenced to be
hanged. But as several notorious char-
acters had recently been allowed to es-
cape by the supreme court the people
of Adams determined to forestall any-
thing of that kind by quietly lynching
the prisoners. The two men were tak-
en from the jail and hanged to a rail-
road bridge oast of town.
The bodies were left hanging to the
bridge and next morning Judge Gas-
lin sauntered out that way to take a
look. He gazed on the swaying bodies
for a few moments without saying a
word. Then he turned to a friend and
remarked:
"1 sentenced those two fellows to be
hanged. That's one decision that In-
fernal supreme court won't reverse."
