A Fewness Handit Who Hes t1ade Porte
una by His Lawless Acs,
"Of ell the smooth and slippery out-
latvs nus; loose and enjoying perfect froe-
dblu, the smoothest and slipperiest is
Geronftno, the train robber of Arizona
and Mexico," said A. A. • herring, the
mining man, of Vaene Dome, A, T. et
do not refer to the wily Apache chief,
who a short time ago led in so many
depredations on the frontier, but to his
white namesake, who, if anything, pos-
sesses more cunning,
";`Tot much seems to be known of
Geronimi, in many Pacific coast states
and territories outside of Arizona and the
mountainous regions to the south. Ile
flies from one side of the Mexican line to
the other in a few hours, and is as hard
to get sight of us a will-o'-the-wisp, He
goes into the most civilized towns of the
frontier whenever he wants to, and no-
body seems to have the nerve to tackle
hon,
"Geronimo was connected with two'or
three of the heaviest robberies on the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road a
year or so ago. He lent a hand in the
last hold-up on the Southern Pagitic. No
detectives are after flim, or if they are
they .make no headway tri capturing him.
He seems to have the right to go any-
where unmolested.
"His finances are considerably im-
proved by his robberies of Wells, Fargo
& Co.. Mine owners, too, caught out
with well filled pockets, as well as nu-
merous travelers, have paid tribute to
him. Mexican and American cattle and
horse owners have also suffered. These
depredations have been carried on for
Arco and possibly for five yeara. A very
round sum must have gone into Geron-
imo's exchequer in consequence. Peo-
ple most intimate with the circumstances
of his plundering figure his gains at from
$100,000 to $200,000. Perhaps not less
than twenty men have been killed also,_
yet he has been regarded as a myth by
many who have only heard about him in
a curious way.
"I assure you ho is about the liveliest
blood, muscle and bone myth, however,
that there is agoing, There are no
flies on him, and evidently it is a good
mart who will get him—a second Bob
Garland. or somebody of that sort. He
knows the mountains as well as Billy the
Kid ever did, and better than any out-
law now living. Ile came to Tombstone
first three years ago, and went under the
flame of White, . -
"He stayed for a short time around
the gambling houses. He never was
known to engage in honest labors He
was a fair gambler, though he never
played for big stakes. He seemed to play
for pastime more than anything else. In
a short time he disappeared and wont to
Clifton. Then he began his open career
of crime. His last hauls were ori the -
Atchison and Southern Pacific roads,
where, it ie-bo'lieved, he got $20;000 each
time. Then he went to Mexico and was
captured by the regular troops while
driving away some horses. But the So-
nora jails were not strong enough to
hold him, and he is now back in Arizona. '
He often visits Tombstone, and a short.
time ago was seen playing billiards in
the Comet saloon there.
"He has no headquarters, and his de-
vices to elude pursuers are always suc-
cessful, Nothing is known of his pres-
ence till the day after he has left a place,
and there is no doubt that 'those who
know where he is keep still about it for
fear -of death at his hands. His compan-
ion is a renegade Mexican named Fred-
erico. It has been said that Geronirno is
a Mexican, but this is a mistake, He is
white, or very nearly so. -
'"Geronimo is a dead shot, and officers
or anybody else are not in n hurry to try
their skill against hint. Some stiff re-
wards have been offered by the railroad
and express companies for 'him, and
private parties have also offered bonuses
for him.
"Tho governors of Arizona and Sonora
have nf;'ered something like $3,000 each,
There is money in his scalp if it can be
got, but to get it is the trouble."—San
Frarcisco Examiner.
The Preacher Mut Ris Way.
Yesterday, as tho evening train over
the Norfolk and 'Western railroad was
coming down, a minister on board, who
was booked to preach in the county a
short distance from the city, approached
Capt. Lassiter, the conductor, and asked
to be put of at a crossing where the
trans does not make a stop, stating that
a carriage was waiting there kr him.
The minister was persistent, but Capt.
Lassiter refused, stating that his train
wflgesalready behind time and another
stoppage was impossible. The train had
not proceeded a great way when it was
discovered that a passenger coach had
become detached, and it was necessary
for the train to be backed to pick it up.
It seems a little singular that when the
car was readied ono of its platforms wise
exactly opposite the spot where the rev-
erend gentleman wished to get off,—
