Robber Shot Dead.

About two O'Clock yesterday
morning Tomas Gomez, a sheep
hcrder in the employ OF Col. Baker,
on the San Vicente ranch, near
Santa Monica, was aroused from
Sleep by hearing some one IN his
cabin. He found notorious half
breed Indian.negro named Gabriel
standing by his bedside, armed
with an old sword, who demand
ed the arms aid articles of
value abont the place. Gomez
made feint of acquiescing and de-
liyered TO the robber everything
he demanded except q carbine
which was concealed somewhere
about he place. Gabriel proceeded
to fasten his booty upon his horse
in convenient shape for carrying,
and Gomez, watching his chance
when the half-breed's attention
was diverted, seized the concealed
Salo oAi" an" hlS" uPou MN. lbe
ball took effect in Gabriels
back and stretched him dead upon
the ground. Gomez placed the body
inside the shanty, and taking charge
of the robbers horse, freighted as it
was witt, the stolen goods, pro-
ceeded to Santa Monica. Finding
Sheriff Mitchell there, he gave him.
self up and recounted the circum.
sta noes of the affair as here given.
Gabriel was we'll known as a
desperate character. He had
served out one term In the Peniten.
tiary, and, of late, had acquired a
good deal of notoriety as robber
of sheep camps and out-of-the-way
ranch houses. Indeed, we believe
he robbed Gomez on q former ocoa-
sion.
DR.. Harmon was notified and
went down to Santa Monica
to hold an inquest but when he
arrived there he found that one had
already been held by Justice Scott
of that place, the Jury rendering a
verdict of justiiiable homicide.

In titles. By what authority they
are given we do not know, but sup

one. The fact is patent that no
sooner does O man Of any note,
who is plain "MIsteru elsewhere,
arrive here than he is furnished
with some high sounding handle
to his name. The other day Mr..
Wagner, civil engineer and land
surveyor, who Is now United States
Surveyor General for California,
came down here and he was at once

The latest breyet we have
seen is that of Mr.. Barrows, a re-

paper prefixes "Hon." Now, as we

used to ferry people across the Mo-

"Good morning, General, do you
want to cross the river?" Yes,n
replied the gentleman" but you

The boat started and. after a time,
our Dutch friend addressed his
passenger, this time reducing him
to the rank OF Col. Aga n was he
informed that he was mistaken.
The ferryman was almost at his
wits end. A passenger who de-
clined the title OF General and Coll

reached the landing and the gem

tients satisfied with their treat
ment.

sistance, and to Deputy Sheriffs
