human being. He was dressed in the
skins of animals and was always
armed. His hair and beard were of
extraordinary length. He haunted
small settlements, and when there
were no men around made raids on
the houses, securing whatever plunder
was to be had. He came to be the
terror of the county and narrowly es-
capped with his life several times. A
few weeks since he made one of his
visits to house where the inmates
refused to comply with his demands,
and the door was barred against him.
He fired three revolvers at the house,
seriously wounding q woman, and re-
trea ted to the swamp. The next day
party went out and captured him,
and he was lodged in the county Jail.
The particulars of this affair were seen
by Mr.. Masten in the San Francisco
Chronicle. The description of the
wild man answered that of Smith so
nearly, including missing finger
from one of his hands, that he wrote
to his relative, enclosinga photograph
of the murderer. When the letter
was received at San Francisco, the
DCI6Ou w w Oih ~ w co oObiOocCo PtO
ceeded to Colusa county and found
that the wild man had escaped from
Jail. He showed the letter and pho
tograph to several men, who declared
that there was great resemblance be-
tween the picture and the wild man.
A search was at once instituted for the
escaped prisoner. Several men,among
them Mr.. Masten's relative, followed
him for days through the thickets, and
finally came up with him. He at once
showed fight and commenced firing at
the party. The fire was returned and
the man fell. Mr.. Townsend, the
former Ulster county man, went up to
him and recognized him and was rec
ognized in return. Smith died in
few hours. He had eluded justice for
nearly seven years.

The Cross of Christ.

He that stands beneath the cross and
understands the scene, dare not sin;
not because there is hell beneath
him or an angry God above him, but
because holiness is felt to reign there.
The ground on which he treads is sa-
cred; the glory of the Lord encircles
him; and, like Moses, he must remove
the shoes from his feet. The cross is
venerable spot. 1 love to linger
about it, not merely that 1 may read
my title to everlasting life, but that l
may study the greatness of God. use
the term advisedly. God never ap-
pears so truly great, so intensely holy,
as when, from the pure energy of prin-
ciple, He gives Himself, in the person
of the Son, to die rather than his char
acter shall be impugned. Who dares
prevaricate with moral distinctions,
and talk of death as greater evil than
dishonor, when God, the mighty
Maker, died rather than that truth or
justice should be compromised? Who,
at the foot of Calvary, can pronounce
sin to be slight evil? Here, then,
lies the most impressive sanction of
revelation.-IhOrnlOeU.

The Wild Man of CoIusa.
from the Colusa SUM-

"Chapparal JOo has, it seems, OBJ
tanned a fictitious notoriety, and has
been killed after manner that would
astonish him if q paper containing the
following particulars should happen to
reach his cell at the Lunatic Asylum
at Stockton. That relative" " that
exploits in killing the veritable Jere-
miah Smith, ought to have leather
medal. The history of 10, so far as
known, has from time to time ap-
peared in the Sun. If any one in New
York, however, has any idea that he
is the identical jeremiah, they can get
peep at him by visiting Stockton.
The story given below, it is almost
needless to say, was built upon the
items that have from time to time
appeared in the Sun about this singu-
lar individual. Some fellow, wanting
perhaps to make hero of himself,
wrote about his exploits with the wild
man in the ''sage brushu of Colusa.
We would like to know where he
found even the sage brush. But to the
story, which is interesting as showing
how we may get news by going far
enough from home from it. We quote
from the New York Times of February
9th:
~. N. Masten, of Wurtsboro, N. Y,
has received letter from a relative in
San Francisco, formerly resident of
Ulster county, New York, giving the
particulars of the killing of desperate
known as the wild Man of Colusa,'
who proves to be jeremiah Smith, the
perpetrator of what is known as the
'wayside MURDER near Homowae,
Ulster county, in the Fall of 1868.
Smith murdered his wife and child in
the road near his residence by pound
ing them to death with a stone. He
then fled, and large reward was of
fered his capture. At least twelve men
answering his description were arrest
ed In different parts of the country,
but none of them proved to be him.
He was traced by detectives as far as
Utah, and there all trace of him was
lost. About three or four years ago
there appeared in the sage brush in
Colusa county, California, strange
