Armand Demousset. found guilty last
week by jury In Department Of the
Superior Court Of the crime Of abducting
Cslestine Coela for the purpose Of max
ing her lead life Of shame, came up
yesterday afternoon. before Judge
Cheney, to be sentenced. J. NJ. Dam
ron. attorney for Tie defendant. argued
a motion for new trial. Judge Cheney,
in denying the motion, said that he had
carefully examined the case. He did
not think the verdict Of the jury was con
trary to the evidence, nor that il would
be disturbed by the Supreme Court. Ev-
idence had been introduced TO show he
purposes Of the defendant In connection
with the girl. The jury WIS composed
OF intelligent men and they had had suf-
ficient facts before them to base their
verdict on. In regard to questions of
law, the defense had attempted to prove
that the girl was Of an unchaste charac.
ter previous to the time she had become
acquainted with the defendant. The
prosecution had objected to this class Of
evidence being introduced, because it
was inadmissible. and was immaterial
also. The Court then read the informa.
ton to the defendant, emitting by
some oversight to ask he defendant
whether he had any legal grounds to
give why sentence should not then be
pronounced. ard sentenced him to the
extent Of imprisonment the law allows,
namely five years in the State prison 81
San Quentin. He also imposed fine Of
500. The attorney for the defense OBJ
jected afterwards because tho judge had
forgotten to ask the prisoner the statu-
tory question. After sentence the Cour
directed that the transcript Of the case
be prepared in order TO allow defendant
to file his appeal Demousset will go up
to San Quentin to-day.

THE GUNsIGHT MINE.
Expeditions Preparing for
the Front.
THE INTEREST INCREASING.
A Can Of Tomatoes Paves the way
TO the Mountains Of
Gold.

The description Of the finding of the
lost Gunsight Mine and the Con lder
placeres has aroused great attention.
The story Of these mines, discovered and
lost generation ago. is full Of romantic
and painful interest. Hundreds Of lives
have been sacrificed where
vultures and wolves were the graves Of the
slain,
In the vain attempt TO find the great de.
post Of wealth.
Messrs. Judson,. Spring and Carter,
the re.discoverers Of the lost mines, are
preparing steel wagons for another trip
to their treasure, for the purpose Of
opening its golden glory.
They will send their supplies by rail
to point near Tehachepi, and start
eastward on their hopeful and daring
expedition. 1t is expected that the
weather will not be 80 warm dnrins the
latter part Of September as it was when
they were there in Augu t.
Their outfit will be complete and va
rious. They know by painful experience
what is needed on white hot desert
sands Green or blue goggles must cover
the eyes aid canned fruit, tea and raisins
must take the place Of heavier freight.
AT ore time the lives of these gentle
men hung by brittle thread. They
were parched with thirst. with no water
except salt water to drink. II they had
hada small still that would have been OF
no particular weight they might have dis.
titled this in brief time and saved their
lives in that way. But brave and adj.
venturous pros ectors seldom think Of
their own safety. To this basin Of burn
log sand, this dreaded Death Valley,
where life is burden and pain, with
no water to cool their parched and
wollen tongues, these three human
lives were
SAVED BY CAN OF TOMATOES.
The fresh delicious juice Of the last
can of tomatoes, that had been saved for
last resort, refreshed the furnishing
miners, gave them new vigor and hope,
and the dreadful journey was continued
till the loug looked for mines were
found. The humble, unpretentious to-
mato vine Of the garden was the motive
power at last that saved three valuable
lives and opened a treasure house for the
world. In addition TO the nuggets Of
gold shown by these prospectors, the
assays of the rock are so high in result
that the readers Of the HERALD would
not credit them.
Yesterday. "Kennebeck. the railroad
boys ell know 'Kennebeck" who runs
the pile driver for the s. P. R. R., after
interviewing Messrs. Judson. Spring
and Carter, and taking directions from
them as to the proper directions to take
to Obtain water along the route, started
to find mine Of his own in the far away
mountains of Inyo county. or IN Nevada
near the Gunsight lodges. Great inter-
est is felt tor his safety and success.
Another expedition will start 10 few
days for this romantic region, which lies
far beyond where bean poker ever trav-
eled or ice cream ever cooled the thirst
of mortals.

SATURDAY, Sept. IL,
EDITOR HERALD;-We have always
had great respect for editors and news
papers. We supposed they labored for
the best good of the people; that they
praised the good and punished the bad;
but our faith is shaken, when man,
and that man minister of the gospel,
earnest and faithful, is made the subject
of paragraph such as appeared in the
Times of Friday, the 10th inst, about
the Rev. p. W. Dorsey, without proof,
on the authority OF q man that the
church would not grant letter to unit e
with another church.
What are we to expect next Is 1t
wrong for us to be indignant and de-
mand that those who make and unmak Q
character with dash of the pen, be fit
men for the placer The daily papers,
more than any other Influence, mould
the people of a community, what is go

such Leaders? Are those who are such a

and is here, to be destroyed to satisfy

U. s. DEPUTY MARSHAL.
A SIsnderous lnnuendo Obiiter.
ated by DOcu mentapy Pre0f.

The Times of yesterday had . most
unjustifable slur on Carlos Cruz, who
was recently appointed U. 8. Deputy
Marshal, in the following paragraph;
Carlos Cruz Is now e1.Deputy United
States Marshal for the Southern District
of California, and will cruise no more in
behalf of Uncle Sans interest. There
are said to be some Weyse reasons for
his removal.
The facts of the case are that in this
new United States Court District there
have been no officers appointed as yet,
and the former officers do not feel as
sured that they are legally authorized to
transact business.
The following correspondence explains
the situation and shows that not the re-
hottest blame or charge has ever been
brought against Don Carlos, who has
discharged all his duties faithfully and
satisfactorily:
