How the'Cnptdre \Vas Efl'ected—Butler’s nIethod of Entrapping His Prospec- tive Victims—Usually Made Them Dig Their Own Gravesg SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 8.—Goorge Ed- ward Butlor, alias Ashe, the murderer, whose arrival on the ship Swanhilda was so long expected, is now in the San Francisco jail. The Swanhilda ways sighted coming through the Heads in tow of the tug Alice. The tug blew six whistles as the signal agreed upon if Butler was aboard, but de- tectives waiting down the bay did not hear them. Suddenly a red light’flashed out through the darkness. This was another signal, and the officers know their man was there. The' customs boat Hartley, which ‘had been placed at the disposal of the police, was boarded in haste, by six detectives, four newspaper men and four revenue offi- cers, and the little vessel steamed rapidly away to the Swanhilda, which was met off Fort Point. The detectives remained con- cealed in the cabin while. the revenue offi- cers went on board the Swanhilda to see if Butler had been put in irons. They re- ported he was not, and the detectives went on board, and Butler was pointed out and' in a second handcuffed. He denied that ho was Butler, but was positively identified by Detectives McHattie and Conroy, who came here from Australia for that purpose. , . Tho captured murderer was taken on board the Hartley, which soon landed him at the wharf. Tho patrol wagon was in waiting, and he was whirled off to prison. How Butler lVas Arrested. . Although the arrest was a complete sur- prise to the suspected man, he maintained remarkable coolness and calmly pulled a cigarette as he went ashore. Captain Fra- zier of the Swanhilda said Butler shipped with him as a seaman under the name of Leo:Wcller, one of his victims. All went well on the trip across the Pacific, and it was not known the murderer was on board until yesterday. When it was known, the vessel was near San Francisco. Butler asked Captaiii’ Frazier, as the pilot ap- peared, to slow up, as he expected letters from Australia. When the pilot came aboard, Butler approached him and asked: “Well, is it yes or no?” The pilot did not know what he meant, and he gave no explanation. Captain Frazier was informed by the pilot that it was supposed Butler was on board under the name of Lee Weller and told of ar- rangements for his capture. Captain Fra- zier agreed to do all in his power to help the police. Nothing was said to Butler, and the ship was brought into port. It was agreed that when the crew lined for inspection Captain Frazier was to slip in front of Butler. When the police came on board and the men lined up, Butler was the second man in line. Captain Frazier stopped an instant in front of him, and at the same time Sergeant Bon- ner of the local police covered him with a pistol. Butler’s hands weht up like a flash” Irons were slipped over his wrists, and one of the most notable criminals of modern times was a prisoner. ‘ A tholesale lVIurderer. The known victims of Frank Butler, the Australian murderer, it is said, number 14. Among his other aliases are Captain Lee Weller, S. Burgess, Clare, Frank Har- wood, Simpson, bu Butler is supposed to be his real name. His trail of blood, it is alleged, reaches from New South Wales to the reefs of Western Australia, where he is more than suspected of similar deliber- ate murders. His mcthod was to advertise in English and American papers for a partner to prospect rich mineral districts. He stipulated that the intending victim should have a capital of $50. He received many responses, and whenever he took a comrade into the wilderness to search for gold he returned alone. As no one knew of the partnership existing between Butler and his victims, their absence excited much alarm. After Butler had sailed on the Swan- hilda the first clew was discovered when the bodies of Well and Sorenson were found by a sheep border. It appeared as though Butler had induced the men to dig their own graves in a. pretended search for gold, for in the pit they themselves had dug they were found buried. Evidence was found pointing clearly to Butler as the murderer, and he had assumed one of his victm’s names, as on the Swanhilda’s papers was found the name, Captain Lee Weller. The authorities in England were notified, and detectives started both from Australia and England to meet him on his arrival at San Francisco. According to these officers, Butler’s victims is constantly increasing. He is an Englishman, aged 40. Panic In Bombay. LONDON, Fob. 3.—~A dispatch to The Daily Telegraph from Bombay says that a panic is reported at Kurachec as a result of the plague and famine in India.

This stops the weakening drains which sap life’s foundation; heals all ulcerated conditions, gives the ligaments elastic power of themselves to corrgct mis- placement of internal organs and imparts tone,vigor andvitality to the entire feminine organism. In a word the “Favorite Pre— scription” makes healthy, happy women. - Dr. Pierce is the Chief Consulting Physician of the Invallds’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. He has made a life-study of wo- men’s peculiar ailments. 1 Over ninety pages of his great work, “ The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser,” are devoted to the considera- tion of diseases peculiar to women.

Larsen and the other laborer filled two buckets, and poured one into the bar- rel over the bear's back. As the ice- cold water flowed down its shaggy coat the bear carried on at a furious rate. It clawed, snorted, sneezed, and fought with its hind paws. Larsen had started to throw the sec- ond bucket of water down the bears spine when it gave an unearthly growl and tore itself free from the bar- rcl with a jerk. Larsen threw the bucket at the bear, hitting it full on the snout, which the bear stopped to rub an instant before starting in pursuit of Larsen. The latter thus gained about a hundred yards. Larsen made for an embank- ment and just cleared the hill. rolling over and over, as the bear made a vic- ious lungc after him with his paw. The bear did not follow.

Inaccuracy in an important newspa- gi'avo annoyance, and it has been known for‘au'official to call and com- plain of the misstatement and demand a rectification. Not long ago an illus- trated London paper gave a picture in which her Majesty was represented as holding the arm of her Indian attend- ant. Within a short space of time a member of the royal household called on the editor to state the abSurd'rty of such an error. “Tits Queen is much annoyed at this mistake on the part of your artist, as it might give grievous offense to important persons in India. She could never take the arm of a ser- vant.” This will show how closely she watches even the pictorial press. When a good illustration appears of any state function it is (a common incident for the artist to be requested to visit the Queen, very likely to receive a com- mission. , ‘ One “’as Entirely Enough.
