JESUS ARRIAGA. rho Famous Mexican Bandit and His Escapades. The Cincinnati Enquirer prints the fol lowing interesting letter from the City of Mexico: The reproduction of a paragraph in one of the leading papers of this city, taken from the Liberal , published at Porto Prince, Hayti, has aroused a great excitement among the Mexican people; it gives the de scription of a doctor named Rull who lately landed in that small republic. According to the description it is believed hero that lie is none other than Dr. Jesus Arriaga, a celebrated thief, whose life is a ro mance. He is the son of a family who once stood among the best of Mexican society, was' educated in the National School of this city, where he went through the preparatory studies, and was near to re ceive his graduation as a doctor at the med ical college, when he suddenly abandoned his studies and disappeared in 1888, he being then 18 years of age. His family and friends did all they could to find him, but all efforts were unsuccessful. Some time ago a rob bery was committed at the “Bazar,” one of the largest jewelry store's of this city. The peculiar wav in which it was accomplished CREATED A GREAT SENSATION throughout the whole country. The watch man was found under the influence of chlo roform, lying almost senseless on the floor; the doors, drawers and wife cases were all well locked, and for a moment it seemed to everyone as though nothing had hap|>eiied, but that a practical joke had been played on tho watchman. But on opening the safe cases and drawers it was found that more than $50,000 in money and jewels bad been taken. For some time there was no clew by which the authors of this skillful robbery could be discovered, until another ono occurred at a bank in Guadalajara, one of the principal cities of the northern part of Mexico, in the State of Jalisco. Next door t o the only bank of this city at that time was a “pasada” (an inn). A stranger came to the landlord and rented it; not many days hud elapsed since the stranger took possession of the passada until the rob bery occurred. The wall which separated the two buildings had been bored, the doors and drawers were opened and locked up again, and more than SBO,OOO, most of it paper, was missed. There was no doubt that the two robberies were perpetrated by mem bers of the same gang. The following day the stranger had disappeared; the other peo ple living in the house were totally igno rant of what had taken place. This stran ger had a beautiful child, a gil l 8 years of age, who left the city, accompanied by a woman, some days before. The description of the stranger given by the proprietor of the house was as follows: A man of about 30 years of age, erect, thin, of a medium size and a white complexion; long black heard and a thick moustache; good talker, well dressed and of elegant manners. , NOW THE DETECTIVES HAD A CLEW, and it was soon heard that a passenger who claimed to be a Frenchman was stopped by the detectives at Vera Cruz; the features of the man answered the given description. He was brought to the City of Mexico,and at his trial it was discovered that, he was Jesus Arriaga, who had so suddenly left the col lege. He had been away for 'twelve years. When he left Mexico he went to Havana with a girl who was working in a theatrical company. The girl embarked for Spain, and he was left alone in Cuba. He turned to his books, and after some months of prepa ration he asked to be examined at the Med ical College of Havana, and received his di ploma as a medical doctor. He married a daughter of one of the most aristocratic families of that city, and lived for a long time in a quiet, honest manner. His wife died in a mysterious way, leaving him a child. Soon after ho went to Mexico under another name, and was living en front the “Bazar” in the Calle del Espiritu Santo (street of the Holy Spirit), when the first robbery took place, and afterward went to Guadalajara. Notwithstanding the efforts of his relatives to save him. he was sen tenced to ten years of imprisonment. Not many weeks had parsed when he, boring through the wall of his cell, EICAPED FROM THE PENITENTIARY, and since that day nothing was heard of him until 1880, a carpenter was arrested at the City of Orizaba (State of Vera Cruz) and carried to the city of Mexico, where he was identified as Dr. Arriaga. It was a sur prise for the whole city to hear again of this man. Ho was taken to the court, and when asked to name his counsel, refused to do it, saving that he himself would make his defense. The day for bis trial arrived, the court room was crowded, he raised before the Judge, and turning to the audience, then to the jury, said: “Gentlemen of the jury, if l have done wrong, it has been to those who can not be hurt; to those who have money enough to help the others and don’t do it. I defy you to present before me anybody to accuse me of any felony, of any assassina tion. No! T never have dropwd a single drop of blood; I never nave done any harm to anybody; I can present you some families, poor families, children Who have been supported by me for four and five years. ” At that moment three old women and six children arose from the crowd and approached the bar. They were asked by the J udgo and they confessed to having been maintained, together with three more families, by Dr. Arriaga during five years. Those circumstances won the man the sympathy of the audience and of gome of the jury. Tho prisoner continued: “Part of the money that I have stolen is invested in works of this kind, and the rest in my child; not a cent Ims been wasted in a single thing that has not been of some utility for somebody'. Since three years ago I concluded to change ray life, arid determined to live quietly and earn my living by working as a carpenter iu Orizaba, where I have a large shop. In a word, I am fully determined to mend myself. Now I appeal to you, gentlemen of the jury—I appeal to your own conscience —I olfer, I promise, I swear to be good liore after, • FOfl THE SAKE OF MY CHILD, for the sake of these poor old women and these dear little children, and for my own sake—let me go free.” All was in vain. Ho was sentenc'd again to twelve years impris onment. He calmly heard his sentence, and "itb perfect coolness said: ‘’You compel me to look for myself. I accept the impeach ment. I will not bo long there." He was taken to the penitentiary, locked up and slosoly watched. The penitentiary is situated toward the west side of the city, near the Gate of Beleu, where Gen. Scott on Kept.. 14. 1840. gave his Insl and decisive battle*that ma<le him the master of the City of Mexico. I Wore the entrance of the penitentiary, which looks fast, is a largo square. To each side is a street, aud back of it is a ditch. Scarcely l“id this success boon forgotten when it whs at-icovcrcd that Dr. Arriaga had csoaped Mice moro. t , One morning the sentinel knocked at the 'loor of his coll at the usual hour to give ®*'u breakfast. As no one answered, he in formed the jailer concerning it, who imme diately ordered the door to be torn down. Jn entering the coll they found that THIS MAX WAS OOXE. Apparently the cell was in the usual con **V°n, hut after a careful examination a Jpie leading to a subterranetiti channel was ilsoovcred. This channel led to a store lorosi tho street. 1 he (lay before tho man who whs running “i< store sold out,.almost giving tho goods a neighbor, and disappeared that night. cndonbteHly he was one of Arriaga’s usso -lotes, but Arriaga never denounced any of *uem, and this was the strongest charge tgmnst him by the jury, if n x ' day not hing has been hoard of ‘y ( “• Arriaga in Spite of cunning doctect- A conespondent from Brussels (Belgium), nf tno papers in this city, gave-the mowing account of Arriagas daughter aunng the last trial: • .. says the correspondent, “at ac Cecilia College the otter day as a visitor from Mexico. A girl of 15, with clustering curls, black eyes, an oval face white ana chaste as snow, approached to me with a sweet dignity and said: “ ‘Do you come from Mexico?’ “ ‘Si, Senoritn’ (‘Yes, young lady’), I an swered. “ ‘Do you know Dr. Martinez, of that city?’ “ T think I know the name.’ “ ‘Well, I am his daughter; papa has promised me to take me back home as soon as I finished my studies; he writes me every month.’ “ ‘Dear child,’ I said, trying to hide the groat pain her explanation caused me, ‘I nope your father will come for you. Good by.’ “‘I hope so,’ she said. ‘Good-by.’ “I left the college thinking that ignorance is, in many cases, a blessing. The readers of the Enquirer may imagine with what interest the Mexican people, es pecially from this city, have read the news from Hayti. It is saifi that two detectives have already started for Porto Prince to identify Dr. Rull. CHASED BY A PRAIRIE FIRE. It Nearly Caught the Hero, and Burned the Heroine’s Husband to a Crisp. From the SI. Paul Globe. A few evenings ago a party of Northwest ern cattlemen were grouped together in the rotunda of the Merchants’ Hotel, discussing different points of the business—to what per cent, tho loss for the past winter would reach, the prospects for the coming summer, the effect of the inter-state tommerco law, etc. The recent prairie fires in the Northwest, and also those m Kansas, which caused the loss of of life and property and destroying for this season valuable grazing lands, were made the topic of conversation, when ohe of the gentlemen said, “A prairie fire with a strong wind is a ter rible thing. I have seen several, but fortunately was never very close to but one, and it was only by a streak of good luck, or perhaps Providence, that I escaped alive.” When the group had settled back for the story the cattlemen told this incident, which has romance enough in it for the foundation of a novel: “It was in ’75 or ’76, I don’t remember which,” said the man. “I was in partner ship in the cattle business with a man, whose name is immaterial, with our ranch in Indian Territory, below Medicine Lodge. We had shipped a drove of cattle to Kansas City, driving them from the Territory to Wichita, Kan., which was then the ter minus of a branch of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road. The drive to Wichita was rather disastrous to the stock, the grass along the route being poor and water scarce. On the way home from Kansas City it was decided that we should continue on tne main line of the road to Hutchinson, from which place I would take a horse and ride down to the Territory, while my partner was to go on to Dodge City, and also take a horse for heme. The object was to find a more desir able route on which to dr We our next herd of cattle in order to reach a shipping point. Accordingly I stopped at Hutchinson, and before going to bed was in possession of as fine a piece of horseflesh as you ever laid your eyes on. The distance from Hutchin son to Medicine Lodge was about 90 miles, which could be reached by a hard day’s ride. By daylight the next morning I was in the saddle and riding south. It will be remembered that at that time Kansas was little settled west of the central portion, especially off the line of two railroads run ning east and west through the State. Consequently my ride was a rather lonely one, the majority of .he living things to be seen being prairie a 'gs, which would scamper to their holes on my approach. Occasionally I would happen upon a dug out,’ but throughout the day I did not see a solitary house 1 . These dugouts are strange looking objects to persona unaccustomed to them. Usually they are simply a hole dug in the ground, a few poles laid across the prairie grass and dirt thrown over the top. The only redeeming feature about them is that they are cyclone-proof. In some cases a hole is cut in the side of a hill, but owing to the nature of the country this form of habitation is scarce. The day had been un usually warm, and I hail been riding rather slowly with a view of pushing on faster when it had become cooler. A breeze sprang up from the south and I gave my horse a tap to urge him on. but not minding the whip he started off in a different direction than tho one which we had been going. He appeared to be uneasy, but I supposed this was caused from thirst. The sun had goue down and the wind was in creasing, bringing with it a faint odor of burning grass. As it grew dark I could see a flicker of light at a distance, but thought nothing of it.' It was not long, however, before I discovered the cause of the horse’s uneasiness. Stretching from the right to left,apparently in a semicircle, was a streak of fire, and I at once realized that I was in a dangerous position. “There was no way to turn to escape but to turn back, and I was loath to do that. I stood still some time, undecided what to do. It would be foolish to think of trying to break through this sweeping wall of fire. Turning the horse’s head m the direction from which we came, I let him have toe reins. He needed no urging, and covered the ground in fine style. I looked back, and was dismayed to see that even as fast as we were going tho tiro was gaining on us. Giving too horse a short cut with the whip he gave a lunge for ward, but fell, throwing me over his head. He luid stepped into a prairie dog’s hole and broken a leg. Seeing that he could go no further I drew my revolver and ended his life. The fire was now less than a mile from me, coming before a terrible wind, the flames leaping high in the air. Bv the light I could see a small hill a few hundred yards away, and my only hope was to roach that, ri haps. finding shelter on the opposite side. put forth my best efforts, but before covering half the distance I could hear the roar of the flames and feel the heat, while tho smoke wax suffocating. Making a ter rible effort, I kept to my feet for a few seconds more, and then consciousness left me. When I woke it was morning, and bending over me wax a young woman. Remembering what I had passed through, my first impression was that I was dead and in—well, where wo all want to go some time. Hut I soon found my mistake, and discovered that I was in a cave dug in the side of a hill. Iu flying from the fire my last step hail brought me to the door, anil fall ing, had forced it open. The young woman was in great distress, and told me that she feared her husband hail been’ caught in tho prairie fire. Bhe told me her history very briefly, saying that she was an orphan, had been married but a short time, and came from the. East with her husband to make a home. Her husband had left her alone two days before, 'having gone to the nearest town, and that she hail expected him to re turn the evening liefore. Hastily eating wnat she hail prepared, we started in search of the missing man. The soeno was a deso late one, as far as tho eve could reach being a sea of ashi>s. We had gone a little over a mile when, we found the charred remains of the woman’s husband. I left her watching over him while 1 hunted up a habitation, and securing assistance we buried him near n-hpre he died. 1 hired a mun to take me to my ranch, where I found my partner had arrived all right. Shortly .alter that. I sold out and came North, but I ihink 1 shall not forget that part of the country soon.” Just as the narrator hud ceased speaking a bright little boy came running up to him saving: “Papa, mamma wants to see^ou. “But what became of the young woman f was asked in unison by tho rest of the party as the gentleman arose. “Well," sold he with a smile, “she has just, sent our boy after me.” Cleopatra Drank Pearls In her wine, and captivated Caesar with her lieauty and magnificence.

FROM THE TOMB. Ghostly Visitors That Corua Back of Nights From the Cincinnati Enquirer. On tho south side of Madison street, be tween Elm and Plum, stands a three story red brick dwelling. This house within the past two weeks has been an object of awe and interest among the neighbors. Any eve ning, after dark, tor the past two weeks lit tle groups of curious jwople have surrounded the premises. The story goes that the house is frequented by spirits and spectre'. Reimta bleand reliable neighbors say that they have been eye-witnesses of the most remarkable phenomena on the premises. The house is owned by a family named Baker. The Bakers live on toe first floor. Up to a few days ago the upper part of the house was tenanted by Mr. C. Ludeke, the leader of toe orchestra at Harris’ Museum, and his family. About three months ago ‘‘old man” Baker, as he was familiarly known among the neighbors, and little Edna Ludeke died. THE TWO DEATHS occurred the same night. The man died of old age, the little girl of diphtheria. Edna Ludeke was a beautiful and interesting child. She was bright and apt, with a passion for music, and in the even time, as her father played the violin for her, would dance and caper about tho house in childish glee, her long golden hair nodding and waving and tos3ing as she kept time to the time. For several weeks after the two doaths nothing unusual was noticed about the house. Oue evening a few nights ago the neighbors who command i* view of tfie back porch were awe-struck by a strange, weird spectacle. It was about 7:80 o'clock. The night was still and calm and the moon shone brightly. Sudden as a flash thereappeared on the back porch two female figures. The figures were full length. Both wore clad in the long, flowing, spotless white, GARB OF THE SEPULCHRE One was the form of a child with long hair falling carelessly over the shoulders. Neigh bors who knew the little one well and saw her daily in life, immediately recognized in the sprite little Edna Ludeke. The other form was larger and more mature. The eye witnesses, of whom there were fully a dozen, at onee came to the conclusion that it was a daughter of the Baker family, who passed away some years ago, when just budding into womanhood. The two spectral figures waltzed weirdly back and forth on the porch, while the pale, trembling and amazed spectators looked on awe-stricken und breathless. Silently, noiselessly, with ghostly tread, the two figures floated to and fro, their white garments fluttering in the evening breeze. This continued for three or four minutes; then, quick as a flash, strange ly and suddenly as they had come, THE FIGURES VANISHED. The next evening toe spectators of the startling sight, and others who had heard of the phenomenon, were on the alert for a sec ond visitation. At toe same hour as on the previous evening toe same two spectral figures reappeared. They were not full length this time, as on tne first evening. Only the heads and busts were visible. Limbless, footless, the two figures floated in mid-air. The moon was again in the heavens, and its bright rays shone full upon the spectral forms. In a twinkling, while a soore of witnesses looked eagerly on, the two female figures merged into one, and forth came the form of a man, full length, and CLAD IN WITTTE. The spectators recognized in the new fig ure the deceased Baker. “Let’s see what it is,” said a gentleman who was looking on to a group that stood about him. “All right,” said the othor, and they started forward. As they did so the figure stretched its arm before it and, clasping its hands before it as a swimmer does who Is about to dive, ptunged head foremost off the porch and vanished in air. The third night the watchers were again on the alert. This night the phenomenon assumed a different form. Instead of figures there appeared at the window- a wave of light. It seemed to be about a foot square. It was a light that looked like gaslight. It would contract and then expand again, but never to exceed its original dimensions. Occasionally it would suddenly change from its square shape to a long, narrow streak of light. Then it disap peared altogether. A moment later there appeared in its stead A BLOOD-RED BALL OF LIGHT as large as a saucer. This flitted about like a will o’-the-wisp. It darted through space, to and fro, first here and then there. Alter a minute or two it vanished as mysteriously as it had appeared. These strange happen iugs so impressed Mrs. Ludeke, the mother of the deceased little Ulna, that she pre vailed upon her husband to seek an other dwelling, and the family moved to a new residence a few days ago. The affair is the whispered gossip of the vicinity, and the neighbors keep nightly- vigils in expecta tions of a return of the ghostly visitor. His Opinion of Booms. From the Dakota Bell. •‘Yn-es,” said a man with a beard which closely resembled a rusty woven wire mat tress that has been rolled together as a scroll and then struck by lightning, “yn-es, these ’ere booms may be all right, tnen ag'in they mayn’t.” lie sighed and led us over in a comer away from the crowd and continued: “Peerhaps they be, then perhaps they ben’t. I was up here ter a Dakota town thet’s havin’ a boom yeste’dav an’ they hain't all they’re blowed up ter be. No, sir, not by a big sight. “W’y, I went inter thet air town an’ I was standin’ thar chawin’ boughten ter backer when all at once I hears a dog fight erround the comer an’ nattur’ly I legs it erround ’lout as fast as I could Lump conj for’ably so’s ter git erhead o’ the crowd, but I might jes’ as well o’ saved my muscle cos thar didn’t no crowd come. No, sir! It was ae pertty a fight as ye ever seed b.ut I was the only witness. “My friend, thiA hnin’tno time for levity— I stood thar an’ them dogs fit an’ rolled an’ jest howled an’ I was the only represen’tive of a degen’rate and boom-struck race ter watch and ’em! “I stood their by them dogs, my friend, an’ I wept—yes, sir, I’m not ersbamed ter say I wept. An’ while I wept an’ them dogs hunted for each other’s juggler vein the un feelin’ jiopulace rushed past an’ platted new additions, an’ sold corner lots, an’ run hoss railroads out inter tlui back counties an’ got eastern spectators inter poker game^ “While 1 stood thar an’ done what I con sidered was my duty ter encourage sport, they, unfeclin’ critters, org’nized a board uv trade! “When I wept they snorted; when I pulled the biggest dog off by the tail they opened thou - mouths back to their cans and boomed. “They shouted themselves hoarse over a bonus tor anew groc’ry store while I said ‘be still, sad heart,’ ati’ lifted the smallest dog's hind legs out uv n liarb-wire fence. “Where two short months ago every citi zen in town would ‘a’ come an’ watched the fight an’ j’ined with mo in shovin’ them dogs agin each other, now the meanest uv them would not listen to my entreaties to stop an’ protir’pate, but drew themsolee up haughtily and said: ‘Cease, you old blear eyed jail bird—let the dogs fight from July to eternity, thar is no noble thing but soilin’ real estate!’ And they folded their hands under their coat tails an’ put thoir noses up in the ail an’ walked awuy. “So ye see, friend, that when at last the little dog elmweil tip the big ’un I alone was thar ter slip the collar olrn him*an’ take his dead body tenderly by tho tail an’ snake it up inter a alley an’ leave it near tho post office. “Pardner, I may be trottin’ in tho wrong elans, the stream tnnt gurgles past my hum ble door may not be the black, brackish, al kali torrent of Hitter crook; I may be weak as water, poor as hen-grass, an’ with a spongy intellect mellow us a lullin' glove, but I toll ye what I don’t take no stock in these ’ere booms. They break up estab lished social customs, cause men to wear a foot off"n each log in the scramble ter un load real estate an’ warp an’ corrupt idoesof what eons’itutos true happiness.” He wiped Ills eye on his sleeve, took a la#ge drink at our expense and drifted out into the lonely night. . i CHEAP ADVERTISING.
