novel and the stage more than he did
the ordinary American criminal, was
hanged on Friday, in San Jose, to the
general relief Of the community he had
30 long plundered and mennced. This
was Tiburoio Vasquez, u robber and mur-
derer of the ancient type, who was to
California what Fra Diavolo was to Italy,
who, it is said, certainly killed eight
persons, and probably killed many
others, and whose robberies it would be
difficult to record. He was the terror of
Southern California, and was leagned
with other desperate men as wicked but
not as intelligent rs himself Of his
crimes and the long war he waged with
society, an interesting account is given.
lie died brnyely, rs such men generally
do, and professed his innocence of mur-
der to the last, although the evidence of
his guilt is convincing.
