REPENTED AND CONFESSED.
Yesterday afternoon between 3 and 4
o'clock a respectable looking young man
walked into Sheriff Ellis' office, and intro-
ducing himself as C. M. Huworth, asked
that he be placed under arrest for the
embezzlement of $930 from the United
States express company last August.
Sheriff Ellis accommodated the young
man and escorted him to the county jail,
where he told the history of his crime,
which in substance ts as follows:
He was joint agent for the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific, Chicago, ltock Island
and Texas and the United States express
company at Terral, Indian territory, and
had worked for the Chicago, Hock Island
and Pacific for two years. In August last
something went wrong about a shipment
of stock and fearing that his position was
in jeopardy he embezzled a package con-
taining- Jiial) that arrived on an eyening
train. Leaving the office in charge of his
operator he left for a short trip to Ring-
gold and never returned, but came to
Texas, where he has been shielded by an
alias ever since.
Last Sunday he attended the revival ser-
vices at the gospel tent and was converted
by the Rev. Smiley and immediately re-
solved to do penance for the crime. Leav-
ing the meeting he telegraphed to the su-
perintendent of the express company, stat-
ing his whereabouts and willingness to
surrender, but as no reply was received he
resolved to surrender to Sheirff Ellis and
so did yesterday afternoon.
The young man gave his home as Wel-
lington. Kan., where his aged mother and
sister reside. Until this embezzlement he
had always lived an honest life and has
committed no crime since.
Haworth's conversion seems thorough
and sincere, and though he realizes a term
in the penitentiary awalls his return to
the scene of his crime he appears happy
and contented in the life Into which he was
born last Sunday.
Sheriff Ellis telegraphed the fact of Ha-
worth's surrender to the authorities at
Terral, but as yet has received no reply,
and it is thought that an effort Is being
made to arrange a settlement of the young
man's embezzlement.
Nothing has been heard by the sheriff
from officers where the offense is said to
have been done.
'"GENERAL" EVANS.
Shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon
"Captain.," now "General" Evans of the
"First Texas regiment, United States in-
dustrial army," called at the police sta-
tion and notified City Marshall Pruett that
the "army" would break camp at 2.30
o'clock this afternoon and start on their
long and weary march to Washington.
The "general" says the "army" has not
been disorganized in the least by the un-
expected arrest of "General" Patterson,
tout that all the "soldiers" are disciplined
and they will leave the city without dem-
onstration. It Is their purpose after break-
ing camp to march to the 'business house
of a certain Fifth ward merchant who
has contributed liberally to their support,
bid him farewell, then march to the city
across the San Jacinto street bridge, and
out Washington avenue and then onward to
Washington. T'heir efforts to obtain trans-
portation from the railroads were futile,
says the "general," and the entire "army"
will travel on foot until such time as they
can procure transportation.
They did not leave at the time named
for their departure, but hung around above
the Central shops to get the benefit of
frelgiht train transportation. Each man had
three days' rations and each one a cooking
vessel of some kind.
They got one of their number out of
the police station who had been locked up
for drunkenness. They hung on the edge of
towa.
LITTLE GIRL DROWNED.
This afternoon the body of a .little girl
was found floating iln the bayou at the foot
of Texas avenue and Smith street. Car-
penters Robert Gill and Wm. Stanley, at
work on a building, were shown the body
floating in the water and got It out. It
proved to ibe Sallie Krantz, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Krantz, who keep a little
store nearby. The home people had not
missed th.e 1 r likttle daughter and whi n ithe
find was announced it caused pitiful distress
In the household.
Justice Mahoney held t.he Inquestt and
rendered a verdict in accordance with the
tact's. The funeral .will take place to-mor-
row.
JUDGE E. WILSON.
Judge Eugene Wilson of Brazoria h'as
just returned after an adsence from the
state of three weeks. He recently has
been mentioned as good timber for con-
gress, and as he was indorsed two years
ago by his county for that position, your
correspondent asked h'lm if be would ac-
cept any honors in that direction. In reply
he saM positively he would not.

dacy, Mr. Wilson stated that he had given

WOMAN'S KINGDOM.
The home can realize Washington Irving's
fancy and becom ■ In truth "the rallying
place of the affections." The lowliest cot-
tage made radiant with the light of sym-
pathy makes the club and lod.;.- seem
blaak In comparison. Sympathy, not of the
heart alone, but of the mind. The lords
of creation f >r their own good should
ever be under the spell of a happy home.
They may be drawn away from the counter
attractions which make against the peace
of the fireside, and for the boon companions
of the world they may be induced to .sub-
stitute the comradeship of books.
Woman's kingdom is in truth the home,
and it becomes part of her duty to .make
the home so attractive that it will always
be the dearest spot on earth to the father
an l children.
In this departure you will find a powerful
ally In a reference library, and Just at
this point The News makes you <a proposi-
tion which meets every objection that econ-
omy or even poverty may urge. You can
place this great "World of knowledge," the
Encyclopedia Brltannica, into your home,
which will be the source from which Vour
children, husband and self can ever find
n;«Mui-eable reading and uiolitaiulv study.

twenty cents worth of tobacco and was

tobacco to his account, that he was well ac-
quainted with Cole and that he was working
for the Santa Pe railway and it w >uld be
all right, and left th» h < ts«\ The clerk fol-
lowed him and made him take otT his coat
and give ii to him to hold as security for
the supper and to'bacco.
He came back m the restaurant at 1
o'clock this iThursday 1 morning, armAd
with a b.i; butcher knife, and compelled the
clerk to :-vlve him something to eat, which
•he did, as h* had nothing with which to
defend himself. He left after get-tins' supper
and s< iiie more tobacco, and al>out 3 o'clock
returned to the restaurant. This time he
was armed with a coal pick and butcher
knife, and proceeded to demolish the two
end windows o-f the restaurant, the elerk
