SANTA TERESA
SUSPECTED
Persons In This City Believe
She is Responsible For
the Yaqui War.
WAS VERY INFLUENTIAL
And George Harold Says Bhe Bad More Or
Leas To Do With the Palomas Custom
House Bald
Santa Teresa the Mexican woman
who has long been revered as a saint
Dy the natives of Chihuahua Sonora
and this locality and who is said to
possess the art of healing' the sick sim-
ply by the laying on of hands is be-
lieved to be more or less responsible
for the present outbreak among the
Yaqui Indians
Officer George Harold of this city
formerly a Texas ranger says that he
is confident that Santa Teresa is res-
ponsible for the outbreak.
Harold was one of the American of-
ficers who rounded up the ringleaders
of the raid on the Mexican custom
house at Palomas Chihuahua a few
years ago. He says banta Teresa in-
stigated that rebellion which was
crushed in its incipiencyand that every
rebel captured on this side the line had
a picture of the woman saint on his per-
son and the back of each photograph
was inscribed with one of her prayers.
After the Palomas raid the Mexican
government made an effort to ap-
prehend Santa Teresa as she was look-
ed upon as a dangerous fanatic and as
possessing too much power over the
minds of the lower classes who are
easily persuaded to revolt. She es-
caped to El Paso however and re-
mained in this vicinity a year or more.
While here she was visited by thou-
sands of pilgrims from all parts of the
republic and if reports be true healed
many.
About two years ago the woman dis

appeared from this locality and it af
terwards turned out that she had
cone back to her native state Sonora
and taken up her abode in one of the
Indian villages where she was abso-
lutely safe from molestation by the sol-
diers. It is now believed that she used her
influence to incite the Indians to re
volt and rise against the Mexican rule
The woman is described as (being frail
and.delicate looking and undoubtedly
possesses magnetic power the source of
which is unknown.
Harold and others are confident that
the woman's presence in the Yaqui
country had a great deal to do with the
uprising now assuming alarming pro

THREE CHINAMEN ARRESTED
Celestials Who Went To Mexico Are
Returning.
Ah Kin Ah Su and Ah Ho were ar-
rested by Inspectors Mehan and Dowd
Saturday night on the boundary line
between the United States and Mexicoa
just after they had crossed over into
this country.
The Chinamen are believed to be a
part of the recent heavy importations
into Mexico. They were quite angry
at being stopped by the officers and re-
fused to talk at the jail. This makes
twelve celestials now being held here
awaiting trial for violating the exclu-
sion act. Several more are in the
lock up awaiting deportation.

Outlaw Arrested NearAlamo-

WAS IN EL PASO'S JAIL
He la the Last Survivor Of the Notorious
Dalton Gang and Goes To the Peniten-
tiary For Life.
Jim Nite the only surviving member j
of the Dalton gang was convicted of i
murder at Henderson Texas Satur-
day and given a life sentence in the
penitentiary. He was charged with
killing the cashier and another citizen
during the robbery of the Loogview
bank in 1894.
Nite was arrested with two com-

ico several months ago by Sheriff
Stewart of Eddy and two deputies aid
ed by Tom Tucker after a fight with
Winchesters. The outlaws spent one
night in the El Paso jail
and a afull account of the arrest
was published at the time in the Her-
ald. Nite was taken to Eddy and af-
terwards fully identified as a member
of the Dalton gang and transferred to
Henderson for trial.
A Houston dispatch to the Dallas
News August 5 says:
The Nite murder trial was ended at
7 o'clock this evening by the jury ren
dering a verdict that Jim Nite was
guilty of murder in the first degree.
for which be must be confined in the
penitentiary for l'fe.
The verdict was rendered lust six
hours after District Judge Graham
read bis charge. No one had expected
a verdict so soon alter the trial was
ended and nearly every one had pre-
aictea a mistrial.
The town had been deserted by the
hundreds of witnesses and visitors and
lees than fifty people were in the court-
room when the sheriff announced to
the court that the jury had reached a
verdict.
Jim Nite sat alone and was seeming-
ly indifferent when the foreman of the
jury was reading the verdiot.
A moment later Nite in charge of
Sheriff Stead and two deputies return-
ed to the jail
At the jail he was met by his aged
father who has been here ever since
the trial was begun. His sister was al
so there.
His attorneys will ask for a new trial
on the grounds of absence of material
witnesses.
LITTLE GIRLS INJURED.
Bicycle Accident on Santa Fe Street
Yesterday.
Two little girls were painfully injur
ed while coasting on bikes near the
Mesa garden yesterday afternoon.
Their names were Rachel Levy and
r:raie tveuar ana ootn oi tnem were
thrown to the ground by a collision
with the curbiug corner Idaho and
Santa Fe street?. They were moving
at such a high rate of speed that
neither could make the sharp turn and
their wheels ran straight into the
curbing.
Little Rachel Levy was at first
thought to be seriously injured. Blood
flowed from wounds on her forehead
knees and legs and parties who picked
her up thought that several bones had
been broken but such proved not to
be the case. The little girl was taken
to her home at the Phoenix hotel in a
buggy by Prof. Seamon and this morn-
ing she was up and about.
Birdie Kellar's arm and knee were
both injured.

BEAT THE GAME
nuu mere nrresiea ai xne instance
of the Proprietors.
The Majestic saloon and gambling
house seems to be very unfortunate In
picking out dealers. Another case of
what is termed in gambling circles as
the double cross occurred there Satur-
day afternoon and if it had not been
for the vigilance of a gambler by the
name cf Ed. Vick the monte game
would have been beat out of 15000 in
. I m . a . .
a very snort time.
Prieto Bros who arrived here a
short wnile asro from Mexico with ft
810.000 bank roll ooenad a. mnnt.a orame'
in me Majestic paying the proprietors
of the saloon a certain percentage for
the privilege of dealing their game.
They bad in their employ a Mexican
dealer named Joe Cordova whom up to
the present time they tad trusted im-
plicitly. It seems that on Saturday both prop-
rietors of the game were out and Cor-
dova waa in full charge when at about
5 o'clock! J. 'J . Miller a faro dealer
employed in the As tor bouse and a
Mexican called Meliton Gonzales cama
in and walking up to the monte tabfc.
began to play. It is said by some
. V. i 3 -
nun luoro was a previous understand-
ing between the players and the dealer
and they knew exactly how to bet. '
There were only two bets made th
first one was for three hundred dollari
which they of course won and then pui .
the whole 8600 on the next bet which
they also won when at this moment Ed.
Vick who bad been watching the play
jumped in and stopped toe game and if
it had not been for his Interference the
whole $5000 would have soon disappear-
ed. By this time one of the proprietors
of the game appeared on the scene and
in hisexcitement at the treachery of
nis dealer naa the wnoie crowd arrest-
